“Will you definitely give it to us? There is only one day left, tomorrow is the deadline for the contract. Gu Yao, don’t waste your time, you can’t produce the Ancient Spirit Pill at all. Since that’s the case, why not hand over the Gu Yao Hall early and join my Gu Fang Zhai? What’s the point of continuing to resist?”

Ouyang Cheng sneered, his face full of disdain: “Today, I will take over your Gu Yao Hall. Stop wasting time and hand over the land deed. Just admit defeat.”

Ouyang Cheng was aggressive, and a cold killing intent radiated from him.

“I say, Gu Yao, you don’t want us to take action, do you?”

Accompanied by Ouyang Cheng’s cold laugh, several martial artists from Gu Fang Zhai also stepped forward with sneers.

“You guys…” Gu Yao Master’s expression changed slightly, while Shang Gu Kong was anxious in his heart, not knowing how to resolve the situation.

At that moment—“Hmph, you have quite the bravado. Who says we can’t produce the Ancient Spirit Pill? Those who know understand that you are from Gu Fang Zhai. Those who don’t know might think Gu Fang Zhai is a group of bandits!”

A cold snort echoed, and with a rumble, the restrictions inside the Gu Yao Hall opened. A figure walked out.

“Chen Shao!”

Shang Gu Kong and the others were overjoyed and hurriedly paid their respects.

Ouyang Cheng and the others were startled. Could it be that Gu Yao Hall had allied with some major force?

Looking closely, they saw a young man whose aura was only at the late stage of the Mortal Sage realm, and he had never been seen in Cang Xuan City. They immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Hmph, an unknown brat thinks he can deceive them?

“What, bringing someone to act as a distraction will make you not hand over the Gu Yao Hall?”

Gu Yao, let me tell you, there is an agreement between our two families. Even if it goes to the City Lord’s Mansion, the outcome will be the same.”

Ouyang Cheng said with a cold laugh.

“No need to go to the City Lord’s Mansion. You go back and tell your Zhai Master that tomorrow, my Gu Yao Hall will definitely hand over the Ancient Spirit Pill, and as for now, you can all roll!”

Qin Chen said indifferently.

“You have quite the audacity. Who are you?”

Ouyang Cheng coldly snorted.

“Who I am doesn’t matter, if you don’t leave, don’t blame me for being rude.”

A chill radiated from Qin Chen’s eyes.

“Hahaha, you have quite the bravado.”

Ouyang Cheng coldly laughed, and suddenly shifted his gaze: “By the way, I heard that the eldest lady of the City Lord’s Mansion was recently assassinated, and an assassin broke into Cang Xuan City. Now, after that assassination, your Gu Yao Hall suddenly has these unfamiliar people. Your backgrounds are very unclear, and I have reason to suspect that you are related to the assassination of the eldest lady of the City Lord’s Mansion. Why don’t you honestly explain in front of me?”

Ouyang Cheng actually accused Qin Chen of being related to the assassination case of the City Lord’s Mansion.

“That’s right, what Chen Shao? I see it as a false name. Your identity is likely fake, and you might be a group of assassins, or even a wanted criminal from the Guang Han Mansion. Show your true identity first.”

“Take out all your martial arts and techniques for us to examine. Let us thoroughly understand your background! Capturing wanted criminals is everyone’s responsibility, this is the order from the Guang Han Mansion.”

“Good Gu Yao, not only are you in breach of contract, you actually dare to harbor an assassin. It seems that today, this Gu Yao Hall can't escape punishment.”

The martial artists behind Ouyang Cheng from Gu Fang Zhai all grinned maliciously, their eyes shooting sharp light, clearly showing their intent to go against Qin Chen.

“What do you want to do?

Chen Shao is a guest of my Gu Yao Hall.

Are you provoking us?”

Gu Yao Master said angrily.

“Our Gu Fang Zhai is a power in Cang Xuan City, with the responsibility and obligation to maintain the rules of Cang Xuan City. Now, unsteady characters have appeared, so we must examine them clearly. Gu Yao Hall is also part of Cang Xuan City; can you not respect the order?
