Xiao Su never expected that Gu Mu would appear in front of her in the blink of an eye. In other words, Gu Mu had not only discovered their presence long ago, but his lightness skill far exceeded their expectations.
Their lightness skill alone makes it unlikely that they will be able to capture Gu Mu alive.
If Gu Mu's martial arts skills are as exceptional as his lightness skill, then whether they can leave this place alive is still a question.
In an instant, Xiao Su's face turned pale.
However, Xiao Su had already pulled the signal line to launch the attack.
The other three people were positioned on three other walls and could not see what was happening on Xiao Su's side.
The instant the signal cable was pulled, they rushed into Gu Mu's study.
"Oh no! There's an ambush!" One of the men had just rushed into Gu Mu's study and hadn't even seen what was inside when everything went black. He immediately shouted.
The moment he rushed in, the parchment flew over and tightly covered his face.
He felt as if something sticky and foul-smelling was covering his face, and he couldn't get it off no matter how hard he tried.
The other two weren't much better off.
As they flew in, Gu Mu launched several hidden weapons in two directions with his hands.
Those hidden weapons pierced their throats instantly. Before they could even scream, they had already fallen to the ground, completely losing their breath.
Gu Mu never hesitates to harm those who want to kill him.
And the one whose face was covered by the parchment was the bench that had stopped Gu Mu earlier.
The fishy, foul smell made him feel nauseous.
Even more so, the sticky liquid on the parchment kept flowing down his wide-open mouth and into his intestines.
The feeling was like taking the bodily fluids of a dead person and pouring them into his stomach.
Bench felt that if he were still alive, he would no longer be the same Bench he used to be.
It is Niu Hulu·Shadow·Bench.
After dealing with the other three people, Gu Mu reached out and grabbed Xiao Su by the throat, slowly lifting her up from the ground where she was squatting until her feet were dangling in the air. She desperately gripped Gu Mu's hand and struggled painfully.
Gu Mu's smile deepened: "Tell me, how many of you want to harm me? Just nod if you're willing to tell me, and I'll let you go."
While it may be convenient for people in the martial arts world to use, there are some people you have to be wary of.
Especially those with some ability who try to take on the first task in the Hidden City Lord's Mansion.
Even if he didn't use his hands, as long as he activated the scorching power, Xiao Su's head and body would instantly break in two.
But Gu Mu did not do that.
Xiao Su gradually felt like she couldn't breathe.
My throat felt like it was about to break.
A shadow of death loomed over her heart.
Xiao Su forced herself to nod weakly, uttering some indistinct syllables.
Gu Mu then let go of her hand.
As soon as he let go, Xiao Su knelt on the ground.
He covered his throat tightly with both hands and coughed incessantly.
In that instant, she felt as if she had been reborn.
She never imagined that this man would be so strong... so strong that he didn't seem like a monarch of a country, but more like the leader of a martial arts alliance.
Are the requirements for becoming a monarch so high now? You have to understand politics, be skilled in martial arts, be able to threaten the lord of the hidden city, and provide good living conditions for the people.
After a long struggle, Xiao Su finally recovered: "You probably don't know, but right now all the martial artists involved in this battle want to capture you alive. I guess I'm just unlucky; I was the first to make a move. I didn't expect them to be so patient." Xiao Su smiled bitterly.
These days, relying on the status and position that the shop had accumulated in Hidden City, Xiao Su became somewhat arrogant and didn't take others seriously.
This is also why she wasn't cautious enough and personally took action against Gu Mu.
"But I don't want to die. I can help you deal with them." Xiao Su opened her eyes and looked at Gu Mu with a hint of fear in her eyes.
"I have no one else to rely on? Do I need your help? Do you have anything worthwhile to offer?" Gu Mu asked coldly.
If he kept Su Linle, it was because Su Linle was a highly skilled doctor.
The reason for keeping Lu Xiaoyao around was that she was beautiful and innocent, which was very deceptive, and her martial arts skills were first-rate. Now, although Lu Xiaoyao's martial arts skills have been crippled, she has revealed her forging skills.
In short, it is useful to Gu Mu.
As for Xiao Su in front of him, her martial arts skills are just so-so, not top-notch. As a monarch of a country, Gu Mu has plenty of people with Xiao Su's skills around him.
As for IQ, it goes without saying.
Perhaps the brain that should have been there is located in other areas.
Xiao Su clutched her heaving chest, clearly still shaken.
That was the closest she ever came to death.
When Gu Mu grabbed her throat, she clearly saw murderous intent in the man's eyes.
If she hadn't nodded in time, she probably would have died at this man's hands.
“I can deceive them and get them to join forces with me to capture you alive. That way, our chances of winning will be greater. We can split the reward, and I will also give them some money as a bonus. When they gather in one place to deal with you, I will inform you and then we can wipe them all out.”
Gu Mu looked at Xiao Su, who seemed very sincere.
Suddenly I felt that this woman was a little scary.
No wonder, this woman wasn't particularly intelligent or skilled in martial arts, yet she had always been at the top of the martial arts world before acquiring the shop in Hidden City.
It probably relies on ruthlessness.
