Ruthless Seeker

At this time, there was cheering and celebration in the city.

"We won, we won!"

"The beast tide is finally over!"

"God bless you..."

Some people broke down and cried.

Those who escaped were full of confusion. They lost everything except their own lives.

Some of them were sent in by their families. Now he is the only one left. What should he do?

…………

Gu Zhuo and others returned to the city lord's mansion immediately after returning to the city. Although the beheading plan was very successful, Yan Jiao, Yu Xuanfeng and others consumed a lot and needed to recuperate.

Yu Xuanfeng quickly held a meeting to reorganize after the battle and then began to recuperate.

Post-war reorganization has nothing to do with Gu. Although Gu Zhuo seems to be working hard to suppress the beast king in this action, there is almost no consumption.

This is the advantage of strength. Although there are no weird and explosive moves, the endurance is far beyond the average.

After returning to the city, Gu Zhuo changed his clothes and received ten spirit stones.

This action of killing the beast king also gave Gu Zhuo twenty points of contribution.

"Let's save the contribution points first. I've got my eyes on the meat of the Thunder Wolf. I'll trade for a few pieces after the beast king is decomposed."

Originally, Gu Zhuo wanted to have a few corpse puppets steal the body of the Thunder Wolf after the beast king died, or at least dig out the inner elixir of the Thunder Wolf.

As a result, as soon as they returned to the city, Gu Zhuo saw several first-level cultivators immediately go out of the city to look for the body of the Thunder Wolf.

There was no way, Gu Zhuo could only give up.

After two days of rest, the Yu family held a big banquet to celebrate this victory.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, thank you for your help!"

Gu Zhuo was sitting in his seat drinking, when suddenly a voice rang out. Gu Zhuo turned around and it was Yan Jiao.

Yan Jiao is no longer as weak as he was back then. He is wearing a white robe and has a handsome face, which makes him look quite fairy-like.

As soon as he opened his mouth, countless little fans around him were full of hearts in their eyes.

"Ahhhh, open it, Lord Yan!"

"Ahhh, my husband!"

"Nonsense, my husband!"

…………

"At the moment of life and death, it is only natural for fellow cultivators to help each other." Gu Zhuo said with a smile.

"Brother Gu, I toast you a glass." Yan Jiao raised his wine glass.

"Okay." Gu Zhuo drank with him without being pretentious.

"Fellow Daoist Yan, we are destined to be in the mortal world."

"Hahaha, fellow Daoist Gu, don't worry, they are just some mortals who can't practice, and will turn into bones in a hundred years."

Yan Jiao said indifferently, with no emotional fluctuations in his eyes.

……

Some of the people who escaped chose to find a job in the city to survive, and some chose to return to the village, back to the place where they lived all their lives.

A large number of people lined up to leave the city.

Gu Zhuo went straight to the front row.

"Open the city gate."

"Who are you? What's wrong with you? Don't you know how to line up?"

A refugee youth said angrily.

When the soldiers guarding the city saw the monk token hanging on Gu Zhuo's waist, their faces turned pale.

The next moment, the soldiers guarding the city punched the young man in the abdomen.

The young man was already weak after being hungry for many days, and he couldn't bear it now, so he was knocked to the ground.

Then a group of officers and soldiers dared to punch and kick the young man.

"Waste, open your dog eyes and see who is in front of you."

"You dare to provoke even the monk master, you really deserve to die."

...

A man wearing sophisticated equipment ran over and laughed: "Sir, I am the captain of this team, let this dog thing dirty your eyes."

"Open the city gate."

"Master... Monk! Come here quickly."

The city gate slowly opened and Gu Zhuo left. Gu Zhuo never looked at the young man from beginning to end.

Other refugees bowed their heads for fear that they would get into trouble.

Even if the cultivators killed people, there would be no punishment.

When they came to the outside of the city, they were still full of blood and energy, and several people were dealing with the remaining dead beasts.

The meat and skin of these beasts are resources, and most of the beasts have been dealt with.

Gu Zhuo is not interested in these, but the corpse gas produced by the corpse.

This is a rare opportunity to practice the corpse way.

But Gu Zhuo cannot practice openly, because Gu Zhuo cannot announce that he is learning the corpse way.

After all, the corpse way belongs to the magic way, which is despised by major families.

Moreover, it is difficult for Gu Zhuo to explain the corpse way practice method. After all, it is more credible that a teenager obtains the power inheritance by chance, but it is a bit suspicious to obtain the corpse way inheritance.

It may be investigated, and exposing the secret of the book will not be worth the loss.

Gu Zhuo was prepared. He sent a few corpse puppets to survey the terrain and waited for a few days. Now most of the beast corpses have been dealt with, and there are almost no people.

After the beast tide, there will be no caravans in the short term.

This is a good time to practice the corpse way.

Gu Zhuo came to a bush, which was a place that had been surveyed long ago.

The front battlefield is not far away, and it is located in a remote place with bushes to block it.

He also asked the corpse puppets to detect around, and if there was anyone, Gu Zhuo would know immediately.

Gu Zhuo held the spirit stone in his hand, and used it to further bless his cultivation.

Gu Zhuo was cautious and did not stay outside all day.

Instead, he went out of the city to cultivate from time to time, and returned to the city after a day to avoid being suspected.

Compared to practitioners, going out to practice is a normal thing. No one will be suspicious for a while.

…………

Two months passed, and Gu Zhuo stood up and exhaled.

"The corpse qi has completely disappeared, and there are 5 strands of corpse path."

Gu Zhuo felt that he had a strong sense of his corpse puppet. He could control the corpse puppet more precisely, and he could control more corpse puppets.

Gu Zhuo returned to the city, and the city was now very lively.

Because a caravan came to the city these days.

The leader of the caravan was a peak acquired martial artist.

The caravan would sell some scarce materials from various places and make money by constantly reselling them from various places.

This caravan was much larger than the caravan that Gu Zhuo had joined when he entered the city. It was a caravan organized by merchants who were good at doing business.

The merchants were big families and had a lot of influence in the Western Continent.

There were a wide variety of goods.

Gu Zhuo was not interested in those mortal things. Those caravans would also open a specific location to sell some things that were also useful to cultivators and high-level warriors.

Gu Zhuo did not stay and went directly to the center of the caravan.

The guards at the center of the caravan were obviously stricter.

There were many peak warriors guarding.

When they saw the practitioner token that Gu Zhuo was wearing, they gave way.

Gu Zhuo passed through the guards and came to the central area.

There were almost no people here, after all, there were not many practitioners in the entire Xiaobian City.

The leader of the caravan, Shang Bangren, was here to sell these important supplies.

"Brother, come and have a look, they are all good things." Shang Bangren introduced enthusiastically.

There were not many things on display here, only more than ten pieces.

Gu Zhuo walked past them one by one, but he was not very satisfied with the goods.

There was nothing that Gu Zhuo could use. Gu Zhuo practiced strength, but now strength has declined and belongs to the ancient school.

There are even fewer strength techniques.

Gu Zhuo sighed, but he was not surprised. After all, he just came to try his luck.

When he saw the last item, his eyes really lit up.
