Chapter 12646 I will solve the problem
In the next three days, what Gu Yunhe was worried about inevitably happened.
Although he strictly ordered the people in the City Lord's Mansion to go out as little as possible to reduce the chance of encountering danger, purchasing activities were still indispensable due to daily needs.
However, within these short three days, the City Lord's Mansion lost at least a dozen innocent lives.
Gu Yunhe knew very well that the culprit behind all this was the bloodthirsty mercenary group, but due to the lack of solid evidence, he was unable to take any action against them, which made him feel annoyed and helpless.
Whenever he thought of the innocent lives lost, his heart was filled with anger and sorrow.
At this moment, suddenly the entire City Lord's Mansion shook violently, as if the earth was shaking.
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying flame shot up from the City Lord's Mansion and straight into the sky, and actually condensed into a huge fire dragon in the air.
The fire dragon was lifelike, as if it was about to tear the sky apart. Its power was so strong that it made people's heart frightened.
This scene lasted for more than ten breaths before gradually dissipating. However, the shock it left behind lasted for a long time.
Gu Yunhe was stunned by this sudden change. He was filled with confusion and anxiety: "What happened? Could it be that the bloodthirsty mercenaries have finally attacked?"
At this moment, the housekeeper came in a hurry. He said breathlessly: "City Lord, it seems that something strange has happened in the place where that kid named Yu Hua is practicing..."
After hearing the housekeeper's words, Gu Yunhe finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out that it was not the bloodthirsty mercenaries that attacked, but Yu Hua had caused some kind of strange phenomenon during his training. Although there were still many questions in his mind, at least he didn't have to worry about the safety of the City Lord's Mansion for the time being.
A moment later, Gu Qingyao brought Ling Xiao into the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
The afterglow of the setting sun poured in through the windows, illuminating the hall with a golden hue.
Gu Yunhe sat in the main seat, his brows knitted tightly, his face solemn, as if he was carrying a heavy burden. His eyes revealed deep worry, which was the fear and uneasiness of the coming storm.
Ling Xiao walked into the hall, his eyes were as sharp as torches, as if they could penetrate all illusions.
He glanced around the hall, and finally stopped at Gu Yunhe, and said calmly: "I already know about the bloodthirsty mercenary group. Leave this trouble to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, the butler beside him couldn't help but interrupt and said, "You solve it? How do you solve it? The leader of the bloodthirsty mercenary group, Zhang Pojun, is a strong man at the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm. Even our city lord is not sure of defeating him."
His tone was full of suspicion and disdain, and he seemed to be very puzzled by Ling Xiao's self-confidence.
However, Ling Xiao was not swayed by the housekeeper's words.
He smiled slightly, as if everything was under control. He said calmly: "Let the bloodthirsty mercenary group disappear from this world. This is my way of solving the problem."
Although his voice was not loud, it was full of determination and confidence. His eyes flashed with a sharp light, as if he had seen the moment when the bloodthirsty mercenary group would be destroyed.
Gu Qingyao looked at Ling Xiao's confident look, and her worries were relieved a little.
She knew that although the young man in front of her was young, he had extraordinary strength and courage. Perhaps he could really solve this problem.
After all, she had seen Ling Xiao take action in the Huoyun Mountains before.
"Dad, just leave it to him. He will definitely be able to do it."
Gu Qingyao smiled.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, little brother. But don't force me. If you push me too hard, I will just kill the bloodthirsty mercenaries."
Gu Yunhe said.
"No need. Those people are looking for death, so I will give them a satisfactory answer."
Ling Xiao bowed, turned and left.
Looking at Ling Xiao's departing back, Gu Yunhe sighed. To be honest, he still didn't quite believe that Ling Xiao could destroy the bloodthirsty mercenary group, but seeing his daughter Gu Qingyao's excited look, he was a little bit expectant.
……
In the downtown area, the streets are bustling and noisy, with people coming and going in an endless stream. The sunlight shines through the clouds and shines on the bluestone slabs, reflecting mottled light and shadows.
The air is filled with the aroma of various snacks, and the sounds of hawking, chatting, and bargaining come one after another, forming a lively picture of life.
Suddenly, a burst of hurried and heavy footsteps broke the harmony.
Several blood-covered figures rushed into the street in a panic. They had pale faces, terrified eyes, tattered clothes, and blood all over their bodies, as if they had just escaped from a bloody battlefield.
The crowds on the street were frightened by this sudden change and fled in all directions. The originally lively atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the air was filled with a murderous atmosphere.
Those people covered in blood stumbled as they ran, constantly knocking down pedestrians, but they seemed not to care and just desperately fled in one direction.
Their breathing and footsteps mixed with the surrounding noise to form a thrilling symphony of escape.
Soon, they arrived in front of a majestic gate. On the gate hung a plaque with five large characters "Bloodthirsty Mercenary Group" engraved on it, with sharp strokes and imposing manner.
Looking at the heavy door, they finally showed smiles of relief on their faces.
"Finally...finally we escaped here!" one of them said, panting, his voice revealing endless fatigue and relief.
"Yeah, this is our old nest. That guy definitely wouldn't dare to chase us here." Another person echoed, his eyes flashing with pride and relief.
They seemed to have forgotten the fatigue and pain in their bodies and were just glad that they had escaped that horrific chase.
Suddenly, a figure flashed out from the darkness and appeared in front of them like a ghost.
When everyone looked closely, they found that it was the handsome young man who had been chasing them - Ling Xiao.
His appearance was like a bombshell exploding in everyone's heart, and fear and despair surged in their hearts again.
Ling Xiao stood there, the sun shining on his handsome face, but it failed to dispel the coldness in his eyes. He smiled faintly, as if he was appreciating a tragedy that had been destined.
"Do you think you'll be safe if you escape here?" His voice was calm and cold, yet it carried an irresistible majesty.
Everyone's heart trembled, and horror appeared on their faces. They realized that no matter where they fled, they could not escape the pursuit of this young man.
They wanted to open their mouths to call for help, but Ling Xiao was faster.
Ling Xiao raised his hand and waved it, his movements were light and swift. A bright blade light instantly passed through the air and struck everyone like lightning.
"Pfft!"
Blood spurted, dyeing the air red.
More than a dozen mercenaries from the bloodthirsty mercenary group fell in a pool of blood, their eyes filled with fear and unwillingness, but they didn't even have time to shout for help.
This scene was too sudden and too bloody, making people shudder.
