Chapter 53 He's Coming
"Hurry up!"
With this loud shout, several people surrounding Shen Yu suddenly rushed over, and in an instant countless hidden crossbows shot at him, as if to shoot him into a hedgehog.
"How dare you!" With a cold shout, Shen Yu's Qi surged, and the eighth level of the Golden Bell Shield covered his entire body, which was enough to protect him from being hurt by sharp weapons. Now he only had a three-inch shield left on his body. Although these hidden crossbows were powerful, they could not break his defense as long as they did not damage the shield.
However, Shen Yu smiled lightly and immediately pretended to be injured by these hidden weapons, looking a little weak and pale. Shen Yu felt that he was almost at the top of his acting skills with such flawless acting skills.
"Powerful Vajra Palm!" With his arms tightly grasped by two people, Shen Yu first pulled back, but found it difficult to pull his hands back, so he simply slapped forward with two palms. The two people on the opposite side were caught off guard, and before they had time to change their strength, they were hit hard by the two palms.
"Swish!" The Yuanhong sword was suddenly unsheathed under Shen Yu's guidance. The dazzling sword light burst out with terrifying sword energy, and almost in the blink of an eye it pierced through the two people in front of him.
Then the sword flashed, and the sword energy that seemed to chill the body rushed towards him. The sword's edge was like thunder, brilliant and splendid, yet terrifying and unstoppable. This sword was as flawless as the blue sky and white clouds, and as swift and brilliant as a flying rainbow.
In just a blink of an eye, several people who besieged him were torn to pieces by the sword light. Under this sword light, these people couldn't even struggle.
"What a terrifying swordsmanship, what a scary swordsman!" In the distance, three people were standing on the rooftop, watching this place quietly. Especially when they saw the sword light, there was obviously a bit more caution in the pupils of these three people.
"But this man was hit by a hidden weapon. Even if the poison can't do anything to him, the injury alone is enough to weaken him for a while!"
"Let's go!" The leader glanced over here and met Shen Yu's eyes. He smiled at him gently, and then left quickly without looking back.
"Humph!" Shen Yu snorted coldly as he looked at the direction where the others left. The other party was very far away from him, and it was too late for him to catch up. He could only look at them with hatred.
But it’s better this way. The news of my serious injury will surely be known to the people behind the scenes soon.
Little bastards, I’ll trick you to death!
"System, sign in!"
"Sign in successfully, obtain the ninth level of the Golden Bell Cover!"
"Golden Bell Cover Ninth Level!" As a faint light poured into his body, Shen Yu felt his blood and energy begin to surge rapidly. The power of the Golden Bell Cover changed in an instant, and the power increased greatly.
When one reaches the ninth level of the Golden Bell Cover, any flying leaves or flowers can hurt people. Even if one encounters an expert with stronger internal strength, he will not be able to suffer internal injuries. Sharp weapons can only cut the skin but not the muscles, and can only kill people if they pierce the only one and a half inches of the cover.
As a result, his confidence increased greatly, and he had one more trump card to use when going to Luoyue Valley!
After returning to Luoyue Valley, the three of them quickly headed for the center. This place had already been set up by the people from Jinyu Tower, with traps, hidden weapons and poisons everywhere. They were just waiting for Shen Yu to come and smash him to pieces.
The three people who left at this time had no idea that Shen Yu's strength had reached a new level. They were now kneeling respectfully in front of a middle-aged man in a gold brocade robe.
"Owner!"
"how?"
" Master ! Your sword skills are terrifying, very terrifying!"
"Oh? If a great swordsman like you, Mo Ying, can say it's scary, then it must be really scary!" Frowning slightly, the owner of Jinyu Tower, Mo Xuesheng, then asked, "Did our people succeed?"
"Reporting to the host, this man must have been hit by a hidden weapon. Although his life was not injured, I think he was weakened!"
"Good, well done!" Mo Xuesheng nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand and said softly, "Go down !"
"Yes!" As Mo Yusheng finished speaking, the three of them disappeared from the spot in an instant, leaving only Mo Xuesheng and a man who looked like a butler.
"Master, do you think he will come?"
"What if they come? What if they don't come?" With a slight smile, Mo Xuesheng looked at the young men who were detained there in the distance. There was no emotion in his eyes, only endless indifference. It was as if these living people were just ants in his eyes.
"If they don't come, I will kill them all and then spread the word that this county magistrate disregarded the lives of the people for his own selfish interests. He just wants fame, but I will make him lose the support of the people!"
"These fools are the easiest to deceive. With just a little trick, we can make them work for me. Then we can give them a little push and let them attack the county government office. I want to see whether they will kill me or not!"
At this point, Mo Xuesheng snorted, a murderous aura flashed across his body, and then he said coldly, "If he decides to kill, then all of our people will blend in with the refugees, using them as cover, and surround and kill him at all costs!"
"For us in Jinyu Tower, the more chaotic the situation is, the better off we are! Now that he is injured, this is naturally the best time!!"
"The host is wise, but what if he comes?" At this point, the man next to him was a little worried. "Although this man is a minor official of the ninth rank, we are threatening him with the lives of these refugees, which is already a bit of a fuss."
"If this matter gets out, it will attract the police, the Black Guards, etc. to investigate, which will be a troublesome matter!"
"What are you afraid of? The people who arrested the refugees were from the Flying Eagle Gang, and we at Jinyu Tower didn't do anything, so what does it have to do with us? Besides, we at Jinyu Tower didn't take the 300,000 taels, so how can you say that we at Jinyu Tower killed him? Whoever took it should be held responsible!"
"Master, are we really not going to take any of this 300,000 taels and just give it all away?" He couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. That was 300,000 taels, not a small amount. Although Jinyu Tower didn't lack this, it was always a bit unbearable to see such a large sum of money slip away from before one's eyes.
"Owner, then all the effort we put in this time was in vain, wasn't it?"
"For nothing? Haha!" Mo Xuesheng smiled coldly and said calmly, "I heard that there is a richest man in Bai'an County named Sun Heling. He was forced by the small county magistrate to donate all his property to help refugees. We helped him get rid of the man who wanted all his property, and we asked for most of his property as a reward. Isn't it too much?"
"This... But I heard that his property has basically been sold and exchanged for food. We..."
"Idiot, in this disaster year, food is life and money!" As he spoke, a gleam of light flashed in Mo Xuesheng's eyes, as if he had seen countless glittering gold and silver jewels placed in front of him.
"The power of the flood has only just begun. In a couple of days, the price of grain will change every day. It will definitely be beyond your imagination. As long as there is grain, there are people willing to pay for it!"
"The host is so wise, I can't even compare to him!"
"Okay, stop flattering me!" Mo Xuesheng waved his hand. Although he said not to flatter me, his face clearly showed that he enjoyed it. It was because of his foresight that their Tanzhou Jinyu Tower could develop into its current scale, which was also something he was always proud of.
"By the way, have you administered the medicine?"
"Master, rest assured. The medicine has been administered. As long as they use their internal energy, they will explode. At that time, they will all be the most insane weapons. Master, you have foresight and I admire you!"
"Master!" At this moment, someone suddenly came running over and loudly announced, "Master, someone is coming! "
"He's here? Just for a bunch of untouchables, he actually dares to come? How courageous!"
