Chu Hao snorted coldly. The air around him instantly chilled as a domineering aura, amplified by a burst of Inner Strength, made everyone present hold their breath.
What an imposing aura! Even the Overlord of old was no match.
"DING... Host displays imposing pretentiousness, gains 600 Pretentiousness Points."
Everyone held their breath, looking at Master Bu with pity in their eyes.
"Is there any use telling this now?" Chu Hao asked coldly.
Master Bu was filled with despair. Kneeling and trembling on the ground, he felt he had been utterly screwed. How could Chu Hao be a director of the Ritian Group? He truly had hit the ’jackpot’ of misfortune!
Chu Hao took out his phone and called Old Yuan from the Seventh District. The call connected quickly.
"What’s the deal with the Ghost Gu Sect?"
The Seventh District specialized in dealing with such heretical cults. Old Yuan quickly said, "It’s a faction that has risen recently. These people co from the south, practice Miao Sorcery, and have ford their own group. They act brutally and have already committed over sixty cris."
Then, Old Yuan added, "Master Chu, the Ghost Gu Sect hasn’t provoked you, have they?"
Chu Hao didn’t answer him. Instead, he looked at Master Bu and asked, "What’s your na?"
"Bu... Bu Jingguang."
Chu Hao asked Old Yuan, "Do you recognize Bu Jingguang?"
Old Yuan sounded agitated. "Bu Jingguang! He’s an important mber of the Ghost Gu Sect. The man is cruel and ferocious, specializing in targeting pregnant won. His ghost gu are all extracted from pregnant won. There’s an order from above: this person must be captured, dead or alive."
"Alright, I got it." Chu Hao hung up the phone, his icy gaze fixed on Bu Jingguang, as if trying to pierce right through him.
"So, you specialize in targeting pregnant won, is that right?"
Chu Hao’s voice was filled with extre coldness and murderous intent. This kind of scum had violated the most basic moral decency of humanity.
Bu Jingguang’s face turned deathly pale. How powerful is this man? he wondered. He found out about my past actions with just one phone call!
Chu Hao said coldly, "Release your ghost gu."
Bu Jingguang’s face grew even paler. He knew Chu Hao would definitely not let him go; he could see the killing intent in the other man’s eyes.
"You... don’t force my hand!"
Bu Jingguang roared. Rather than be executed, he’d fight. He pulled out an egg-shaped object engraved with a Curse Mark and smashed it on the ground. Instantly, a swarm of black ghost gu insects burst forth.
These ghost gu insects were rely ant-sized, but Chu Hao saw that each contained a vengeful soul.
They were the vengeful souls of infants. To be reborn as a human isn’t easy. Carried for months, on the verge of birth, only to be murdered... the resentnt they carry is imnse.
Chu Hao’s anger intensified.
Bu Jingguang knew he was no match for Chu Hao, so he redirected his attack towards the ordinary people present: Qin Boren and Liu Qingyan.
The ghost gu insects pounced toward the two of them.
Qin Boren and Liu Qingyan’s faces changed drastically. They were terrified, as if seeing hordes of pupil-less infants, fangs bared and claws outstretched, lunging at them.
Unexpectedly, the ghost gu insects leaped with incredible speed. One bit Liu Qingyan on the neck, causing her to scream and pass out.
Chu Hao moved first, vanishing and reappearing before Bu Jingguang to slap him hard across the face.
Bu Jingguang flew seven or eight ters, teeth on the left side of his face shattered. He wailed continuously in pain.
Dong Qi reacted with extre speed, whipping out a Talisman. After he recited an incantation, the Talisman emitted a light that froze all the insects, rendering the infant souls within them unresponsive.
Though terrified, Bu Jingguang’s face was a mask of ferocity. He snarled, "She won’t live more than two hours! Let go, and I can cure her."
Chu Hao said icily, "Chen Fugui, beat the shit out of him for ."
"Yes, sir!" Chen Fugui responded, rubbing his hands together as he marched fiercely towards Bu Jingguang.
"No... please, no!"
Accompanied by piercing screams of agony, Bu Jingguang was rcilessly beaten by Chen Fugui, who showed no restraint.
Liu Qingyan slowly awoke. The skin on her neck was dark black. Dazedly, she stamred, "Am I... am I going to die?"
Tears welled in Liu Qingyan’s eyes. She was still so young; she didn’t want to die like this.
"With here, you won’t die," Chu Hao stated, his voice firm and resolute.
Liu Qingyan’s heart trembled. She lifted her head to gaze at the young man, her beautiful face streaked with tears.
She was indeed a beauty. Her skin was as fair as jade, like a fine, polished gem, and seed to exude a delicate, milky fragrance.
She had been with Cao Shanhe for many years, yet he had never touched her. Instead, he had used her to seduce all sorts of n. She loathed Cao Shanhe for keeping her caged like a canary.
Yet now, with Cao Shanhe dead, she had rely beco Chu Hao’s canary. This fate filled her with despair, making her feel like a walking corpse.
However, when Chu Hao spoke those words, her heart inexplicably trembled.
For so reason, she felt a profound sense of security whenever Chu Hao was near.
Chu Hao squatted down, gently lifted her long hair, and touched the spot where the insect had bitten her.
The Ghost Gu insect’s bite carried a potent toxin, a type of Yin poison. Without imdiate treatnt, it would very likely cause the flesh to necrotize and lead to death.
As Chu Hao lifted her hair and his fingers brushed her sensitive neck, Liu Qingyan’s face flushed red, and her heart began to race.
"Don’t move," Chu Hao said softly.
Saying this, Chu Hao cradled Liu Qingyan, leaned close to her neck, and began to suck at the wound with his mouth.
"Ah!" Everyone gasped in shock. That was a deadly poison, and Chu Hao was actually sucking it out!
"No... don’t," Liu Qingyan cried, trying to push Chu Hao away. A sudden conviction seized her: even if she were to die, she couldn’t let anything happen to Chu Hao.
But this young man... to save her, he was actually sucking out the poison with his own mouth?
Her emotions completely overwheld her. If Chu Hao died because of this, she would bla herself for the rest of her life.
"Please, don’t!" she begged, tears streaming. Liu Qingyan was so overco, she desperately tried to push Chu Hao away.
"DING... Devouring Ghost Technique, refining resentnt and Yin poison, gained 5 Mana Points."
"DING... Devouring Ghost Technique, refining resentnt and Yin poison, gained 5 Mana Points."
"DING..."
After half a minute, Chu Hao finally pulled away, wiping his mouth. He felt as if he hadn’t quite had his fill.
The Yin poison was too scarce; I only earned 50 Mana Points.
This kind of Yin poison? Bring a dozen more!
Besides, this Liu Qingyan’s skin is incredibly soft and seems to exude such a delicate fragrance... I really want to take a bite.
Liu Qingyan was still in a daze. Chu Hao patted her shoulder and said, "Get up. You’re fine now."
Liu Qingyan snapped back to her senses and stared at Chu Hao in disbelief. The blackness on her neck was gone. Her skin there was now fair and tender, marked only by a red love bite where Chu Hao had sucked.
Qin Boren hurried forward and asked with concern, "Director Chu, are you... are you alright?"
Chu Hao sneered. "re Yin poison, trying to harm this Taoist Master? I’ve even absorbed the Yin poison of ten thousand ghosts from the Underworld!"
"DING... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 600 Pretentiousness Points."
Incredibly, even Dong Qi couldn’t help but swallow. He reckoned that if he himself had been poisoned, he’d be in serious trouble. Yet Chu Hao had simply ingested the toxin?
Damn! Dong Qi thought. This guy is definitely not human!
The awe and fear the onlookers felt towards Chu Hao deepened once more.
