Fantasy: Starting with a bowl, you can exchange it for endless cultivation.

Gu Chen charged directly at He Teng.

The area was surrounded by the guards of the Fire Palace.

Seeing that Gu Chen actually dared to take action without any evidence.

They wanted to stop them.

They didn't dare to stop them.

Gu Chen's strength is too great; they can't stop him, and they're likely to injure themselves in the process.

Moreover, the people from the county city's night watchmen that Gu Chen brought were not to be trifled with.

If they try to stop them, this group will definitely obstruct them.

Gu Chen and He Teng belong to different factions, a fact known to almost everyone in the Li Huo Mansion's Night Watch Division.

Gu Chen was dismissed from his post a few days ago due to factional infighting.

Now they've immediately brought people over to forcibly arrest their director.

They were unsure whether He Teng was truly colluding with the Japanese or if Gu Chen was framing him without authorization.

We can only watch as He Teng fights against them.

In any case, it doesn't matter who wins or loses, it won't affect them.

It's just that the boss has changed.

It won't have a big impact. Anyway, if He Teng is removed, it's the same if someone else becomes their director. Their salaries won't be reduced by a single penny.

Upon seeing this, He Teng immediately turned and ran away.

Heading towards the interior of the Night's Watch, towards the direction of the enforcers of the Night's Watch.

He needs to join forces with another sixth-rank expert from the Li Huo Mansion's Night Watch Division, the leader of the sixth-rank, mid-stage Breaking Aperture Realm law enforcement night watchmen. Only if the two of them work together can they hope to fight against Gu Chen.

But would Gu Chen give him a chance? Gu Chen's footwork was extremely fast, and he was using the seventh-grade martial art, Flying Snake Step.

The fourth-rank Spirit Dragon Body Technique is too conspicuous and cannot be used in public.

Of course, there's no need to deal with He Teng.

The Flying Serpent Step, combined with the auspicious signs of the White Tiger and Azure Dragon, further enhances the effect.

His speed is already no slower than He Teng's.

They followed He Teng directly to the square of the Li Huo Mansion's Night Watch Division.

There's enough space here for him to torment He Teng properly.

Those behind only saw Gu Chen catch up with He Teng, his Fire Profound Blade surging with sword intent, and in the blink of an eye, he slashed at He Teng from behind several times.

Seeing that he couldn't outrun him, He Teng turned around and used his sixth-grade martial art, the Great Compassion Tear-Tearing Hand, to resist.

Unfortunately, it was simply too much to resist.

In the blink of an eye, he was stabbed several times by Gu Chen.

Blood was flowing freely.

Gu Chen was too fast, so fast that he couldn't react.

Gu Chen slashed at him four or five times, and he could only block one or two of them; the other three would land squarely on him.

Puff, puff, puff!

"what!"

As the blade struck his body, He Teng screamed incessantly, but Gu Chen seemed to be deliberately controlling the power of the blade.

He could hurt He Teng but couldn't kill him.

Let him suffer constantly.

He Teng seems to have noticed this as well.

Screaming in agony, he fled in a fit of rage.

That Gu Chen really deserves to die!

He was torturing himself.

If he doesn't surrender, he will continue to torture him, as long as he doesn't kill him.

He Teng anxiously gazed at the office area of ​​the law enforcement guards deep within the Li Huo Prefecture's Night Watch Division.

The commotion here has been going on for quite some time now.

Why hasn't the leader of the night watchmen arrived yet?

Is he afraid to come, or does he not want to come?

Damn.

Did he want to watch himself be captured by Gu Chen?

That bastard.

If I can get through this, I must make my master fire him.

He Teng continuously used the Great Sorrow Tear Hand and footwork to defend against and dodge Gu Chen's attacks, fleeing in all directions.

Gu Chen chased him across the entire plaza, slashing at him all around its edges.

The ancient dust and rampant sword intent left the square in ruins, riddled with holes and craters.

He Teng's body was covered in knife wounds, and his Night Watch officer's uniform was ripped to shreds.

He was in pain, angry, and frustrated.

His hatred for Gu Chen reached its peak.

Gu Chen wouldn't care about all that.

We must torment him thoroughly today.

It turned him into a complete clown.

"You've gone too far! I'll fight you to the death!" He Teng roared, suddenly activating the Great Compassion Tear Hand, condensing a huge palm print of true essence.

He turned and launched a counterattack against Gu Chen.

Gu Chen scoffed.

Behind them, the azure dragon and white tiger phenomena roared and surged simultaneously.

A terrifying boost instantly descended upon his Fire Profound Blade.

The crimson blade of the Demon-Slaying Blade soared to the heavens.

Gu Chen slashed vertically at He Teng's Great Sorrow Tear Hand.

In an instant, a slash imbued with the blood-red, delusion-breaking blade intent, imbued with alien true essence, was unleashed.

It struck He Teng's Wind-Tearing Hand directly.

He Teng's palm print shattered instantly, followed by a slash that struck his palm.

"Ah!" He Teng screamed in agony.

Gu Chen severed his hand with a single strike.

It fell to the ground.

Gu Chen continued to swing his sword, slashing at him again, sending him flying backward and crashing to the edge of the square, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

A deep knife wound appeared on his chest.

The terrifying alien true energy raged within his body, causing him to lose control of his injuries, become unable to stand, and lose the ability to resist.

"Take him away and bring him back to the city's night watchman's office to await his fate," Gu Chen said to the group of city night watchmen he had brought with him.

"Yes." The crowd stepped forward, lifted He Teng up, and dragged him away from the Li Huo Mansion's Night Watch Division.

They returned to the night watchman's office in Yuehai County.

On the way.

Gu Chen searched He Teng's body thoroughly.

They found more than 10,000 taels of silver.

He confiscated it.

He thought to himself, "What a poor wretch!"

Despite cooperating with the island nation, they didn't receive any money.

Could it be that the benefits the island nation promised him weren't money, but something else entirely?

He certainly wouldn't risk cooperating with the islanders if there wasn't something of sufficient value.

Pity.

Perhaps the islanders didn't send him that thing, or perhaps they did send it but he used it up.

Now that we've caught him, we've only found this little bit of silver, so we're at a slight loss.

As for why I said it was a small loss.

It was clearly a free profit.

Gu Chen had high expectations for him and applied to personally arrest him, also hoping that he would cooperate with the Japanese.

The islanders must have given him a lot of money.

It could have made me a fortune, but this is what happened.

More than ten thousand taels of silver; to earn less would be to lose.

That evening.

The group of people acting together.

They all returned to Yuehai County.

Gu Chen took He Teng back.

Luo Tianxing and the others also destroyed all the Yamamoto family strongholds within the territory of Li Huo Prefecture and took back some Yamamoto family members who had given up resistance.

They gathered all the evidence of He Teng's collusion with them and brought it back with them.

Shangguan Wuqing was very satisfied.

He smiled directly at Luo Tianxing and said, "Fourth brother, have someone inform Chen Lei to come to Yuehai County tomorrow. Let him personally participate in the sentencing of his disciple He Teng. I want to give him a good show."

"Yes, Master." Luo Tianxing accepted the order.

Meanwhile, on the other side of Li Huo Mansion...

What happened today is far too significant.

The head of the Night Watch of Li Huo Prefecture was directly injured and taken away by Gu Chen and his men from the prefectural Night Watch.

It is said that he colluded with Japanese pirates to smuggle military supplies and rare minerals that were explicitly prohibited by the Chinese government.

Whether it's true or not, if it is, then He Teng is definitely finished this time.

Even his master, Chen Lei, the chief of the Night Watch of the entire desolate state, will be affected.

Gu Chen's high-profile arrest of him made it public knowledge, so even if Chen Lei wanted to protect him secretly, it would be impossible.

Meanwhile, Chen Lei was informed of what had happened here by the Night Watch personnel via carrier pigeon.

At this time, at the headquarters of the Night Watch of the Wilderness State.

Enraged, Chen Lei smashed the table in front of him to pieces.

He was restless all day.

He knew something was going to happen.

I couldn't figure out what it could be, but I never expected it to be like this.

He Teng is such an idiot.

He actually dared to take the risk and cooperate with the islanders.

Not only is he going to die, but he might also implicate my side.

Gu Chen dared to openly lead people to capture him.

They must have obtained evidence.

Moreover, if Gu Chen dares to touch him, he's not afraid of us. Perhaps that old bastard Shangguan Wuqing has already arrived in the Desolate State.

It gave them confidence.

He found out too late.

Now, even if he wanted to, it would be impossible for him to do so.

Shangguan Wuqing will not give him a chance.

At this time.

Yan Xiu walked in and saw the table that Chen Lei had smashed, knowing that he was in a bad mood.

But Luo Tianxing sent word from Yuehai County, so he had to come and report to Chen Lei.

"Master, Luo Tianxing has sent a message from Yuehai County," Yan Xiu said in a low voice.

"What did he say?!" Chen Lei's face darkened.

Today, He Teng was captured by Gu Chen and the men of the Yuehai County City Night Watch.

Luo Tianxing is probably one of the planners.

"He said he had done a great service, that he had caught a spy from our Night Watch who was colluding with the Yamamoto family of the island nation, and that he wanted to invite Master to come and try him together." Yan Xiu replied, "The spy he was talking about is Fifth Junior Brother."

"Damn it, damn it all!" Chen Lei roared, "Why didn't any of you tell me that He Teng went to cooperate with the Japanese?!"

"Master, we...we don't know either. How could our fifth junior brother be so foolish as to cooperate with the Japanese!" Yan Xiu was also speechless, wondering how He Teng could be so confused.

We need to choose this path.

If they knew, they would definitely stop it.

Now, not only has he ruined himself, but they are also going to be implicated by him.
