Chapter 120 Helplessness



She hated bullies like this the most, especially when she saw these guys acting all high and mighty, she felt they deserved a beating.

However, Gu Sang also understood that the current situation was very unfavorable to her. After all, these guys were armed and there were many of them. Even if she was furious, she could only swallow her anger and dare not lash out.

After all, in this world, there is not even a trace of physical strength that can surpass martial arts.

"Alright, then I won't disturb your path to wealth..." Gu Sang sighed, silently thinking to herself.

If only Li Rong were here...

Li Rong also possesses a strong sense of justice, and coupled with his superb martial arts skills, teaching these people a lesson is no problem.

Unfortunately, Li Rong was already seriously injured in the fight with the wolf pack and was still recovering.

Da Ya, Li Rong's apprentice, also stayed behind to look after Li Rong, while only Gu Sang risked her life to carefully come to the town.

If there wasn't a truly unsuitable candidate, Gu Sang wouldn't have done something so shameful.

Thinking to himself, Gu Sang hurried forward, not daring to linger for even a moment longer, lest he attract attention and cause unnecessary trouble.

Gu Sang quickly entered Qingcheng County, wandering aimlessly, pondering to himself, "What kind of place is Qingcheng County? Doesn't it have any government officials? Why don't they care about anything here? Or are there places that the government can't reach?"

Gu Sang secretly pondered this in her heart.

As Gu Sang was walking, she suddenly heard a commotion.

Gu Sang was slightly taken aback, then turned her head to look in the direction of the sound.

Not far away, a group of armored soldiers were seen escorting more than a dozen strong men along the street.

These soldiers, all riding fine horses, each held a sharp spear that gleamed coldly in the sunlight, sending chills down one's spine and instilling a sense of fear in anyone who looked at it.

"What...what are they trying to do? Are they planning to abduct these people?"

Seeing this scene, Gu Sang felt a surge of fear, her heart pounding with dread.

Gu Sang had encountered similar situations before.

Gu Sang had encountered this several times before.

Once, one of their bodyguards happened to be passing through Qingcheng County when he was kidnapped by a bandit. The bandit kidnapped the bodyguard and sold him to a brothel, where the girls served the customers.

That bodyguard wasn't a formidable figure; he was no match for the bandit and was eventually sold to the bandit, ending up in a brothel where he became a prostitute and engaged in the flesh trade.

At the time, this situation caused quite a stir, attracting the attention of many ordinary people and even officials from the imperial court who came to investigate.

However, the officials ultimately gave up, because they had no way to deal with it. These bandits were simply too brutal and arrogant, and they were powerless to stop them.

Therefore, Gu Sang kept this matter on his mind, and he kept suspecting that it might be related to the officials of Qingcheng County.

Seeing these bandits so rampant, Gu Sang couldn't help but wonder if they were sent by the county government officials.

"Huh? This man in blue, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before?" Gu Sang wondered to herself, then suddenly remembered who this man in blue was.

This man in blue was the same man who saved Li Rong and the man in blue in that alley when Gu Sang came to Qingcheng County for the second time.

However, what puzzled Gu Sang was that since this person was able to save people, he should also be a martial arts master. Why was he dressed in a blue robe and dressed as a street vendor? What kind of act was he putting on?

Gu Sang muttered to himself, his gaze sweeping over the soldiers, lost in thought.

"Hey, brothers, what are you doing? We don't have any money, you can't take us to the county government!" Just then, one of the burly men shouted at the soldiers in front of him.

Upon hearing the burly man's shout, the leading soldier immediately stopped and turned to look at Gu Sang.

Upon seeing Gu Sang, the leading soldier immediately widened his eyes and looked at Gu Sang with a very wary expression.

"Who are you? Do you know them? Why are you spying on us? Are you here to rob us?" the leading sergeant shouted.

Upon hearing the soldier's words, Gu Sang quickly shook his head and explained, "I didn't rob you. I just came to Qingcheng County to purchase goods. I saw so many people gathered on this street, so I wanted to come and see what the commotion was about and maybe run into someone I knew. That's why I followed you."

"Hmph..." The soldier snorted disdainfully upon hearing Gu Sang's explanation, clearly not believing it.

“Yes, we are indeed on this street, and we are indeed robbing people. However, we are helping people, so we are not bad people, unlike you soldiers, who are all just bored and come here to rob poor people. Let me tell you, the people of Qingcheng County have no shortage of money. If you dare to take us to the county government and let the officials there arrest us, I guarantee that you soldiers will also be in trouble.”

"That's right, I advise you to obediently release us."
