"No need."
Fang Yu held back Qu Xiangnan's hand from opening the door, his gaze directed toward the corner of the cell, where a man was crouching like a shadow.
[Jiang Huaisan: 26/100.]
Indeed, there were two people living in this cell.
However, the other person had been hiding in the corner since the beginning, quite inconspicuous.
Fang Yu had long since noticed this man's presence, but Qu Xiangnan, evidently a bit slow on the uptake, hadn't noticed the man who seed to blend into the surroundings.
If Qu Xiangnan had opened the door, the man in the corner might have caused a commotion.
Fang Yu didn't want things to get complicated. He didn't care about Qu Xiangnan's survival, but for now, he needed him to lead the way.
Once this person was no longer useful, Fang Yu would give him a proper end.
His gaze shifted back to Guo Junchi, and Fang Yu spoke.
"Do you know the Ma Family of Junma Town?"
Shush—
Guo Junchi looked up.
His eyes locked tightly on Fang Yu.
There was shock, disbelief, and an indescribable emotion in his eyes.
It was as if eting an old acquaintance in a foreign land, or suddenly waking from a nightmare.
He struggled to swallow.
"Sir, do you know the Ma Family? Then, do you know if the butcher shop on the south side of town still has people working?"
It was an unusually hoarse voice, like a desert that hasn't seen rain for a long ti, just hearing it gave a feeling of discomfort.
But Fang Yu's probing had ended.
This person was indeed from Junma Town.
Though it was unknown why he was trafficked to the distant Sunset City, that expression of longing for family was impossible to fake.
However, the only answer Fang Yu could give was...
"I don't know."
Fang Yu turned to leave.
For the sake of having once fought side by side with the Great Elder of the Ma Family in Junma Town, after the matter was settled, Fang Yu would find a way to set this person free.
But whether this person could make it back to Junma Town alive would depend on his fate.
After all, Fang Yu himself had matters to attend to and couldn't be a living Bodhisattva.
"Qu Gang Leader, let's go."
"Yes! Yes!"
Qu Xiangnan, like a clumsy peasant, hurriedly led the way ahead.
By the ti Guo Junchi reacted, the two had already walked a fair distance away.
Guo Junchi quickly got up from the bed, almost falling to the ground due to lack of exercise, but he managed to stabilize himself quickly, rushing to the edge of the cell, shouting outside.
"Sir! Sir, don't leave yet! You've been to Junma Town, haven't you? I'm very familiar with Junma Town! How about buying as a slave, sir?! Sir!!"
His shouts echoed in the cold cell, yet no one responded, except for his 'comrade' in the cell, who suddenly burst into a bizarre laughter of 'Jie!' 'Jie!' 'Jie!'
"What's so funny!"
Guo Junchi turned back and roared, but his answer was his 'roommate's' bizarre behavior of lifting both feet off the ground, slowly levitating.
"You... you!"
Guo Junchi looked at Jiang Huaisan in disbelief.
And the latter, already covering half of his face with his hand, his feet floating a centiter or two off the ground, bent his body backward in an exaggerated pose that was nearly impossible for any regular person to achieve.
"That's right! I... succeeded!"
Bang!
An almost imperceptible blood-colored steam, like a thin mist, exploded outward!
Thud!
Guo Junchi was imdiately bisected, his body spraying blood.
The splattering blood hit the cell's walls, like a maniacal, grueso graffiti.
And Jiang Huaisan's movents beca increasingly exaggerated, his excitent reaching extre levels, his body almost forming an upside-down 'U' shape.
In the instant his excitent peaked...
Bang!!
His head exploded.
The headless corpse, together with the bisected body, sprayed blood wildly around, like a slaughterhouse scene, but anyone who ca would be bewildered as to what had happened here...
anwhile, at the instant Jiang Huaisan's head exploded,
far away at Qingling Taoist Temple, soone who was ditating suddenly opened their eyes.
"Failed again..."
