Chapter 107: Rising Fame! Undercurrents Surge!

Gu Sheng's footsteps sounded, and the man didn't even raise his head. After a while, the swordsman put the boy's body aside and revealed his true appearance.

A black mole on the lower lip was very recognizable.

It was Xiong Jianmei.

He slowly stood up and looked at Gu Sheng, his voice without any surprise.

"Ghostwriter?"

"Yes."

The swordsman said in a low voice: "Very good, to thank you for not disturbing my relationship with Xiaonian just now, I can leave you with a whole body."

Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes and smiled:

"So confident?"

"The last ghostwriter died in my hands just like you."

The giant axe behind him slipped into Gu Sheng's hands unconsciously. Holding the giant axe with both hands, Gu Sheng's momentum became more fierce, and the people watching in the distance couldn't help but shrink their hearts.

"Unfortunately, I can't leave you with a whole body, I need your head."

Gu Sheng's mouth opened wide, his flesh twisted, and he looked very ferocious and vicious.

"If you have the guts, come and get it!"

Xiong Jianmei's eyes narrowed, and he felt a sense of oppression from the sturdy man opposite him. As soon as he finished speaking, the long sword on his waist slid out of its sheath with a clang, and the cold light flashed, and it seemed to be mixed with blood.

This is also a murderer.

He killed a whole family at the beginning, and then he was responsible for many lives, and even ignored the wanted list of the ghostwriter.

He pointed his toes, and his short figure flew out instantly. The sword in his hand was obviously shorter than the ordinary sword, which was more suitable for his figure and swordsmanship.

"Xiong Jianmei, the swordsmanship is known for its weirdness and speed, and his strength is also superior in the Jade Skin Realm."

Gu Sheng recalled the information about Xiong Jianmei, but his movements were not slow at all.

The heavy axe weighing 108 kilograms was swung in his hand like a toy, and the axe blade broke through the air, with a sharp whistling sound, and chopped towards Xiong Jianmei.

No matter how weird your swordsmanship is.

Gu Sheng's axe would break everything.

In Gu Sheng's perspective, Xiong Jianmei seemed to have turned into a piece of firewood, which reminded him of his long-lost memories. Lines of 'texture' appeared, which were the flaws in his swordsmanship.

Chopping people is like chopping firewood!

Gu Sheng's eyes widened fiercely, and the giant axe in his hand swung the long sword and chopped it down fiercely.

The broad axe blade whistled and chopped, and the first-level torn firewood showed an unprecedented sharpness for the first time!

Even if the power of qi and blood is not used, the physical strength combined with the fierceness of the giant axe is terrifying enough. Gu Sheng's eyes showed a strong excitement. This was completely different from the feeling of using the iron fist to fight the enemy, and it could vent his inner desire to fight!

Xiong Jianmei's expression changed drastically, and horror flashed in her eyes.

The giant axe brushed past his body, leaving a visible bloodstain. If he hadn't retreated quickly, he would have been split in half by the man in front of him. His heart was beating violently, his hair stood on end, and he was more cautious than ever before!

This is a big enemy!

If he is not careful, he will die on the spot. He is not at the same level as the ghostwriter he encountered before.

Boom!

The giant axe slashed, and Xiong Jianmei barely avoided it. The axe blade chopped into the ground, creating a huge hole. Such a fierce power made the people watching in the dark gasp.

Xiong Jianmei broke out in a cold sweat and ran out quickly, trying to get into the narrow alley. His short stature would make it easier for him to perform there.

Gu Sheng laughed grimly.

He stepped on his feet, and the sound of thunder could be faintly heard. His sturdy body was extremely flexible and agile. Gu Sheng's speed had a certain advantage due to his minor success in flying thunder legs.

Huh!

The axe blade slashed horizontally, and the air seemed to be broken, slashing towards Xiong Jianmei's back.

This Xiong Jianmei is indeed not an ordinary Jade Skin Realm warrior, otherwise even if Gu Sheng wanted to use him to try out the new weapon, he would not be able to hold on for several moves. Gu Sheng seemed to have a sense of it.

Clang!

The long sword slashed strangely, hitting from below to above.

However, the giant axe itself weighed a hundred pounds, and with Gu Sheng's great strength, it was even more unstoppable. Gu Sheng turned and slapped, and immediately intercepted the long sword.

The metal crisp sound rang out, and the long sword exploded into pieces, splashing everywhere.

Xiong Jianmei's face flushed, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and her body could not stop flying back.

Gu Sheng took advantage of the situation.

Leaping high, the giant axe flashed cold light in the sun, and slashed down fiercely.

Some people around couldn't help holding their breath.

It seemed as if they had seen the end of Xiong Jianmei being split in half by an axe.

However, at this time.

Something strange happened.

Xiong Jianmei, who had fallen to the ground, rolled over quickly and bounced back to stabilize his body. Not only that, he did not retreat but advanced. With a flick of his waist, a black soft sword appeared in his hand.

This was not over yet. A blood-red color appeared faintly on his arm.

Under the blessing, the speed of the already strange soft sword soared, and it quickly coiled along the axe handle like a venomous snake, pointing directly at Gu Sheng's throat. Xiong Jianmei's eyes flashed with cold murderous intent, and there was no panic before.

Obviously, this was all his calculation.

"Is this... half-step blood refining realm?"

Gu Sheng's perception was very sharp. Although there was no fluctuation of blood and qi in Xiong Jianmei's body, it was clear that she had reached the limit of flesh and blood, and her body strength was stronger than that of the ordinary jade skin realm!

He had been forbearing and not making a move just now, but now he suddenly jumped up, and combined with the soft sword that was more suitable for his own swordsmanship.

With two killer moves, ordinary warriors must suffer!

Gu Sheng seemed to have seen the scene of the previous ghostwriter's death. Sure enough, those who were wanted were all very capable.

Unfortunately, he was not an ordinary person.

Gu Sheng muttered to himself:

"It's time to end it."

Just now, he just used Xiong Jianmei as a whetstone to test the weapon. Now that he has tried it, there is naturally no need to keep it. This trump card can work against others, but it is a bit child's play in front of Gu Sheng.

Buzz!

A faint buzzing sound was heard, and a faint blood color appeared on Gu Sheng's body. The blood and qi hidden in his body suddenly erupted.

Xiong Jianmei widened her eyes in disbelief.

"Blood Refining Realm! How is it possible?"

In an instant, he sensed Gu Sheng's vigorous blood and qi surging. The blood and qi power was the power he dreamed of. He was stuck in the bottleneck of the flesh and blood limit for several years. He provoked the ghostwriter and wanted to use the ghostwriter to stimulate himself to break through the bottleneck.

But he never expected that he would attract a ghostwriter in the Blood Refining Realm.

There are not many ghostwriters in the Blood Refining Realm, and they basically don't have the leisure time to hunt down the murderers below the Blood Refining Realm.

"Run! Run!"

He was extremely decisive. He let go of the soft sword in his hand almost instantly. He had no idea about the throat that was within reach. He knew that the master of the Blood Refining Realm would not let him succeed, and his body flew back violently.

Gu Sheng grinned, and his blood and qi surged, making him look even more ferocious.

"Want to escape?"

With the blessing of blood and qi, his strength instantly increased by more than one level. With just a shake and a swing, the soft sword slipped from the axe handle and bounced onto the stone wall.

Gu Sheng's leg muscles were as hard as iron, and blood and qi were infused. He took two steps and the thunder was even more intense.

Instantly caught up with Xiong Jianmei.

"Die!"

With a loud shout in his heart, Gu Sheng's eyes widened, and the muscles in his arms seemed to have blue veins. The first-level torn wood was extremely terrifying under the blessing of blood and qi. The humming wind poured back and slashed fiercely at the desperate swordsman.

Tear!

Just like a sharp paper cutter cutting through paper, there was no resistance at all. The body that had reached the limit of flesh and blood did not provide much protection for Xiong Jianmei, and even the iron plate on his chest was easily torn apart.

Xiong Jianmei's fleeing body suddenly stopped, and a blood line slowly split on his chest. He lowered his head with difficulty.

He saw a bright blood color blooming. Before he could see clearly what was behind the blood color, he felt his perspective suddenly spinning, and large pieces of broken bones and various organs were mixed together, flowing everywhere.

He chopped down with an axe and cut it in half.

There was no possibility of survival.

Gu Sheng slowly exhaled, walked forward, and prepared to cut off the head. Unexpectedly, Xiong Jianmei, who was only half dead, was not dead yet. Before he died, his blood and qi had subtly transformed, which allowed him to continue his vitality for a short time. He did not look at Gu Sheng, but at the body of a boy in another place.

"Help... help me... bury Xiaonian... thank you..."

He finished the sentence in a broken voice.

Gu Sheng nodded slowly.

"Okay."

Xiong Jianmei seemed to show a trace of relief in her eyes, and then her vitality completely disappeared. Gu Sheng swept his giant axe, and a head fell into his hand, still dripping with blood.

He didn't know what kind of bond Xiong Jianmei had with the boy, and Gu Sheng didn't want to know. It was just a small request before her death, but it was just a matter of convenience, which did not conflict with his killing Xiong Jianmei.

After groping around on the body and putting the harvest into the leather bag, Gu Sheng glanced around indifferently, and left with the boy's body.

...

He dug a pit outside the town and buried the boy.

Gu Sheng went to Canghe County Government again, took his reward silver in the eyes of the clerk in awe, and then returned to Gujiazhuang.

In the courtyard.

Gu Sheng reviewed the reward mission for the ghostwriter.

"The first ghostwriter mission went smoothly. It took four days in total. I got 100 taels of silver in reward alone. In addition, I found more than 100 taels of items and silver on Xiong Jianmei. It was a good harvest."

He smiled.

Generally speaking, even with intelligence, the mission is not so easy to complete.

These bandits are very good at hiding, especially those who are good at disguise. They will not stay in one place. A mission may take one or two months, and it may not even succeed.

Although there were some surprises in the first mission, it was generally successful.

"However, Xiong Jianmei has hidden so much strength. I still have to be more careful when accepting missions in the future."

"To be on the safe side, I will only accept missions with targets whose strength is at the entry level of the Blood Refining Realm. In this way, even if the target is hidden, it is within my response range and the risk is controllable."

"In order to avoid wasting time, try not to accept missions with targets who are good at physical skills and disguise."

"As for the time to accept missions, once a month is the best."

Gu Sheng set several criteria for accepting missions for himself.

Although this ghostwriter mission is quite rewarding, it is a bloody job after all. Even though Gu Sheng is strong and can attack from a lower dimension, he is unwilling to do too much. Ensuring his own safety is the top priority.

The money earned is enough for his own cultivation.

Never put the cart before the horse.

"Now I need to consume more than ten portions of Zhuangxue Powder every month. If everything goes well, I should be able to advance to the Great Mastery of Blood Refining by the end of the year!"

Gu Sheng is still very satisfied with his progress.

He has always been steady and steady, except for the difficult period at the beginning when it took a long time to gain a firm foothold. After that, his cultivation got on the right track and his progress has been very steady. It is not fast, but it is definitely not slow.

Gu Xiaojiang is already a rare genius. He has no shortage of resources and only needs to practice diligently, but he is only at the Jade Skin Realm now.

Gu Sheng, on the other hand, is already striving to reach the Great Perfection of the Blood Refining Realm.

…

The next period of time.

Gu Sheng's originally regular life has a new arrangement. In addition to staying at home to practice martial arts, he will transform into a ghost knife "butcher" to accept tasks after a while. To the outside world, he will naturally claim to be hunting.

In just two or three months.

Gu Sheng has completed three ghost knife tasks. Except for the first kill of Xiong Jianmei, the next two times were targets of entry-level Blood Refining Realm, and both were warriors who were good at frontal attacks.

With the giant axe in hand, Gu Sheng is least afraid of going head-on with others. The first-level tearing special effect of chopping wood is very impressive. Even if it is a warrior who is just entering the Blood Refining Realm, Gu Sheng can basically chop melons and vegetables.

Although these two people also have trump cards in their hands, their cultivation realm is consistent with the intelligence records, unlike Xiong Jianmei who hides a lot.

But the result is the same. In front of Gu Sheng, there is no power to fight back.

Even though Gu Sheng has hidden many cards in his identity as the ‘butcher’, his strength is still not comparable to that of an ordinary Blood Refining Realm beginner.

For a while.

Gu Sheng also began to gain fame among the ghostwriters and was given the name ‘Big Axe Butcher’.

Everyone knows.

A new Blood Refining Realm ruthless man has emerged among the ghostwriters. He is born with great strength and uses a 100-jin heavy axe to chop people in half at any time. He is very cruel.

Some people want to befriend the butcher and pull him into the ghostwriter’s small circle, but they are coldly rejected by the butcher.

Gu Sheng created the butcher’s vest just to facilitate his own actions and prevent others from finding his true identity, but he has no intention of socializing with others.

He can create the butcher’s cruel and cold character, but people can’t imagine that the butcher’s true face is actually an ordinary farm boy from Gujiazhuang.

Some people have complaints, but the butcher is so powerful that no one dares to say anything. They just think that the butcher has a withdrawn personality.

Gu Sheng naturally didn't care about these.

He only knew that the three missions had brought him at least a thousand taels of silver!

With sufficient silver.

Gu Sheng's cultivation continued to grow steadily, and he used Zhuangxue Powder to temper his flesh and blood, and his progress was very stable.

At this rate, before the end of the year, he would definitely be promoted to the Great Perfection of Blood Refining Realm!

Now he only needs to practice the two martial arts of Flying Thunder Leg and Snake Breath Technique. Even if it takes a certain amount of time to complete the task of ghostwriter, it will not affect the progress of the two martial arts at all.

These days.

Flying Thunder Leg has already completed a breakthrough again, and now it has reached the Great Perfection Realm, and the progress has even reached 40%!

The Flying Thunder Leg at the Great Perfection Realm has made Gu Sheng's speed one of his advantages. Even the warriors who also practice leg techniques and bodybuilding martial arts may not have as high a realm as Gu Sheng. Gu Sheng is steadily moving towards the hexagonal warrior.

He doesn't want to leave himself with obvious shortcomings.

The Flying Thunder Kick of the Great Perfection Realm not only greatly increased Gu Sheng's speed, but most importantly, it basically made up for the defects of Gu Sheng's leg membranes, and the strength of the membranes of his arms and fists was extremely close. When the Flying Thunder Kick was perfected, it would definitely be completely the same.

He could clearly feel that after the membrane strength of the lower limbs was supplemented, his blood refining progress became faster!

Now only the membranes of the body and head were still slightly fragile. If this shortcoming was successfully supplemented, Gu Sheng's membranes would be the same, and his future cultivation would definitely be smoother.

He could feel it.

Whether it was Yangxue Powder, Zhuangxue Powder or Zhuangxue Pill, the absorption effect of the medicinal power had a lot to do with the membrane.

Moreover, he had a vague feeling that the cultivation of the membrane and flesh and blood seemed to be building a kind of filtering barrier. If the cultivation of bones and marrow was still the same, it would probably be closely related to the next path.

In short.

There must be no defects.

Fortunately, with the support of the panel, the effect of Gu Sheng's practice of two body-building martial arts is much better than that of ordinary people. He does not have to worry about the problem of force conflict at all. Instead, the force is combined, making his blood and qi power more powerful.

It can be expected that if Gu Sheng can get another body-building martial arts and practice all three body-building martial arts to the perfect level, how terrifying it would be.

The blood and qi power is at least five or six times that of ordinary people!

This is his capital.

Not only can it make his combat power and endurance stronger, but also when he uses the blood and qi power to temper his bones in the future, the efficiency will be higher.

This is also the reason why Gu Sheng has been practicing quickly. The extremely high martial arts realm drives the improvement of cultivation, just like driving a car with an airplane engine. It is hard not to be fast.

In addition.

The snake breath technique has also successfully reached 51% of the perfect progress, and it is not far from the special effect level.

Gu Sheng is very satisfied with the progress of his cultivation. Today, he finally has sufficient self-protection ability in this area. He does not have the feeling of being insecure in the past, and he is more confident in doing things.

With enough confidence, you can naturally sit back and watch the situation change.

In today's Canghe County, after Liu Yuanhu established the ghostwriter, the overall environment has improved a lot. At least the bandits and the like dare not act as recklessly as before, otherwise you don't know when the ghostwriter will come to kill you.

This made the nearby villages and forts feel much better, and entering the city no longer needed to be as cautious as before.

For a time, Liu Yuanhu's reputation in the eyes of the people rose steadily.

However, as a ghostwriter, Gu Sheng also knew that all of this was done with his life. If a ghostwriter kills a bandit, he will naturally be killed by the bandit. Many independent strong men in Canghe County have emerged, and the "butcher" is just one of them.

The environment in Canghe County has gradually been cleared up.

The Black Sand Gang has been unusually low-key recently. Many of the evil bandits who have been arrested have a thousand connections with the Black Sand Gang, but the Black Sand Gang has been silent and has not made any moves. It seems that they have given up after the last black market auction.

Gu Sheng just secretly raised his vigilance in his heart.

The dog that bites doesn't bark.

He always felt that the Black Sand Gang was brewing some big moves, and there was an undercurrent that he didn't notice.
