Guo Zhan and his two companions unleashed deadly attacks from the start, ignoring Huang Yu who was standing nearby and focusing their attacks solely on Xia Tianqiong.
It was clearly premeditated.
At such close range, with such a sudden ambush, and with three against one, an ordinary monster hunter would have no chance of survival.
Xia Tianqiong was only shocked and angry, not flustered.
Just as Guo Zhan's black short sword was only an inch from his chest, Liu Guangren's vines were about to wrap around his neck, and the burly man's enormous fist was already above his head.
The next instant, it suddenly vanished from the spot.
"Oh no!"
The three of them inwardly cursed, never expecting that their target, whom they were destined to kill, would vanish right before their eyes.
At the same time, Xia Tianqiong appeared in the shadow behind Liu Renguang.
He was only lightly patted on the shoulder, and his eyes immediately went blank and his expression became vacant.
It was at this moment that Huang Yu launched an attack in anger.
With a raised hand, he unleashed a full-force Sky-Splitting Technique, creating a spatial rift over a meter long in the burly man's chest, tearing him in two.
It was strange after all; it didn't die immediately, but instead healed itself.
However, due to the severity of its injuries, the healing process caused it to lose a significant amount of Netherworld power, resulting in the entire ghostly form shrinking in size.
But Huang Yu's next Sky-Splitting Technique was already upon them.
With two or three more attacks of this intensity, the burly man could be completely shattered.
"careful!"
Only then did Guo Zhan manage to utter those two words.
But it was too late.
He watched helplessly as Xia Tianqiong disappeared behind Liu Renguang. The next instant, he felt a slight touch on his shoulder and then lost consciousness.
"This...how...is this possible?"
In the blink of an eye, only Gu Chen remained standing there.
His eyes were wide open like a bull's, and his whole body was trembling; he clearly hadn't expected his opponent to be so powerful.
Dealing with those three ghost hunters was so easy!
If he knew that Xia Tianqiong had only used Shadow Teleportation and Flower Slapping Techniques, and had not used many other tricks, he would probably be even more desperate.
Xia Tianqiong stood behind Guo Zhan, staring coldly at Gu Chen. "I'll give you a chance to live. Tell me, why did you want to kill me?"
He actually had some guesses in his mind, but he still wanted to hear what the other party had to say.
"I...I..."
The tall and strong Gu Chen stood there, his speech slightly stuttering.
His burly, cunning form was being utterly crushed by Huang Yu and was on the verge of collapse.
"Don't kill my contracted creature, or I'll tell you."
"You have no right to make conditions."
Xia Tianqiong frowned slightly, not because she was angry, but because there were too many onlookers and patrolling police officers were on their way from a distance.
If the three of them were indeed from the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs, killing them in the street might affect his cooperation with the authorities.
Having considered this, he immediately took out the bronze mirror and put Gu Chen and the unconscious Guo Zhan into the mirror space.
The burly man Gui and Huang Yu were also taken in.
He then used teleportation to leave the area, leaving behind a crowd of bewildered onlookers.
Among the crowd, however, was a person who looked exactly like Guo Zhan.
In mirror space.
The delivery guy was still the first to rush over.
"Brothers, we've got a job!"
Its shout was full of passion.
The mirror spirits and waiters who were resting in the various courtyards immediately rushed out, ready to start the battle.
The delivery guy no longer participates in any battles, but he's always there, more enthusiastic than anyone else.
There wasn't much to do this time either. The Mirror Ghost and the waiters gathered around, just as onlookers.
When Gu Chen, Liu Renguang, and Guo Zhan were sucked into the mirror space from the outside world, they were all thrown to the ground.
Liu Renguang was jolted awake by the fall and snapped out of his daze, while Guo Zhan remained lying on the ground, his eyes still vacant.
"What happened?"
Liu Renguang was completely dumbfounded. He had just been about to hit Xia Tianqiong when, in the next second, the target disappeared, and then he lost consciousness.
When I regained consciousness, I looked up and saw a group of people standing around me.
Upon closer inspection, everything was fucking weird!
Have we stumbled into a den of monsters?
Liu Renguang shrank back, his eyes filled with fear. When he saw Gu Chen, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Gu, what's going on?"
Gu Chen was also stunned and didn't have time to answer the question. He looked at Xia Tianqiong and said tremblingly, "Big...Big Boss, this is a misunderstanding. Please don't take it to heart."
"You're all going to kill me, and you still say it's a misunderstanding? Do you think I'm easy to fool?"
Xia Tianqiong remained indifferent and gave Huang Yu a look.
Huang Yu immediately grabbed the burly man and unleashed a space-shattering technique on his head.
The burly man's head split open instantly, then quickly recovered, only the ghostly body became smaller and paler.
"Human, don't kill me. I'm willing to break the contract with him and sign a new contract with you."
Of the three types of contracts, only the master has the right to access the contract and is not subject to any backlash in the Human Lord Contract and the Ghost Lord Contract.
If either party to an equal contract unilaterally proposes to terminate it, they will suffer the consequences of the contract.
The backlash was severe, but not fatal.
The strongman is now content as long as he doesn't die; he can even accept being attacked by the backlash.
But Xia Tianqiong didn't even glance at it.
It's just a wild trick; its trickery is "immense strength," which simply means it has great power.
Xia Tianqiong didn't even bother with sealing it with the chessboard, and directly had Huang Yu destroy it, turning it into gold.
Gu Chen watched helplessly as his contracted ghost was destroyed, not daring to utter a single word.
"Which of you can tell me why you wanted to kill me?"
Xia Tianqiong asked again.
"When you first joined the Bureau, Guo Zhan approached us and said that you had a very valuable ghost artifact on you, which could be sold for one million yuan in ghost money if we stole it."
