Chapter 241 Casualties
Gong Qing's eyes revealed a desire to explore, and his face had a hint of madness and obsession.
For the sake of this secret, he stayed in Longhu Mountain for three years and worked as a Taoist child for three years.
In order to learn the truth, he sacrificed his own life in exchange for the entire Quanxing obeying his orders once.
He did so much just to get an answer.
For this secret, he has gone crazy and even disregarded his own life and death.
Now that the answer is right in front of him, he is determined to give it a try.
Even though death was imminent, he didn't care.
Tian Jinzhong remained silent, then let out a long sigh after a while.
"Xiao Yuzi, logically I shouldn't refuse your request. After all, this is your dying wish."
Gong Qing showed joy on his face.
"But you brought this Lu family kid to me. How can I dare to explain to you?"
Gong Qing showed a look of surprise on his face.
The golden light turned into a knife and instantly slashed across the boy's neck.
The next moment, blood splattered and the head fell to the ground.
Gong Qing's eyes gradually froze, and he murmured,
"Why……"
He lost his life before he could utter his last words.
"I'm sorry, kid! With the help of Shuangquan Hands, some secrets may be revealed even if you die. So I dare not tell you the secret."
Tian Jinzhong's eyes were filled with tears.
With a pair of perfect hands, even the memories of the dead can be extracted.
If he told the secret to Gong Qing, even if he killed him afterwards, if someone used his full strength to extract the memory of his corpse, the secret would still be leaked.
Therefore, Tian Jinzhong had to be on guard.
Although he was extremely heartbroken, he could not hesitate for a moment, otherwise the secret would be at risk of being leaked.
After reluctantly killing someone close to him, Tian Jinzhong turned around and looked at the boy with glasses who was bleeding from his head and unconscious.
"What a poor kid, getting into such trouble."
He slowly walked up to the young man, speaking with regret.
"Although you don't know much, you heard everything Xiao Yuzi said earlier. In this case, you can't stay."
Tian Jinzhong murmured,
Regardless of whether they know the content of the secret, the mere disclosure of the existence of the secret will bring risks.
As long as the news that he has obtained the secret of that year spreads out in the alien world, there will definitely be enemies who will come to him and try to dig out the content from him.
He might be able to resist it once or twice, but if it happens too many times, there will always be a time when he can't resist it anymore.
Therefore, he must curb the leakage of information at the source.
Tian Jinzhong's palm turned into a knife and slashed down.
Chi-
A golden light flashed, blood splattered, and Lu Liang, who was still unconscious, lost his life.
"The body cannot be left behind. If his body is discovered, even if he is a complete being, Lu Ci will definitely come to investigate his memory."
Thinking of this, he leaned over and stretched out his hand.
Some secrets will leave traces even if a corpse is left behind.
. . . . . .
Qianshan tourist area.
"Grandpa!"
As soon as she saw Lu Jin, Lu Linglong burst into tears and told him about her grievances.
Jin Renfeng turned around and looked around. There were people from all over the place, some were treating the wounded, and some were escorting prisoners.
Behind Linglong, Xiao Xiao and his gang were escorting the strange man with the banner and handing him over to Nadutong.
In a corner, he also saw Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao.
"Chu Lan, why are you here? Has the Heavenly Master's inheritance been completed?"
He walked over and asked.
"There was a small accident and the ceremony could not be completed smoothly."
Zhang Chulan scratched his head.
"Is that so? I was wondering why the old Taoist priest came out of retreat so early!"
Jin Renfeng seemed to be thinking about something.
Now it seems that Zhang Chulan is still resisting becoming the successor of the Heavenly Master, just like in the original timeline.
In that case, he is not the source of that causal power.
The outcome did not change, and he himself was not involved. Even if there was some causal power, it could not reach the level of 20 points.
"Since it's not here, then the most likely source of the power of cause and effect is the arrangement I made at Tian Jinzhong's place."
Jin Renfeng thought to himself.
"Good boy! Jin Renfeng, good boy!"
Just as he was thinking, Mr. Lu suddenly came over and patted him on the shoulder with an excited look.
"I thought you were just helping out. I didn't expect you to save Linglong from the corpse demon Tu Junfang."
"That corpse demon is no mediocre person. He is one of the best in the whole world."
"If you hadn't helped, Linglong, Huaer, Xiaoxiao and the others would have suffered a great loss. I'm afraid I would regret it for the rest of my life."
Lu Jin shook his shoulders with an appreciative look on his face.
"Thank you so much! I owe you a big favor for your help this time."
"No matter what happens in the future, as long as it does not violate the law and morality, I will do it for you."
"Senior Lu, please don't be polite!"
Jin Renfeng said calmly, "We are all on the right path, helping each other, and eradicating Quan Xing is one of our due responsibilities."
"Good boy, you do good without expecting anything in return! I just like your generous nature."
Lu Jin patted his shoulder.
Lu Linglong glanced at the young man with resentment in her eyes.
This is not what Brother Renfeng said when he threatened her to marry him.
After a few words, both of them said goodbye and left because they had important things to do.
Jin Renfeng, who had some free time, turned around and found Xu San, and handed Han Dan to him to deal with.
"this is?"
Xu San was very surprised at the existence of Handaner.
"He is with Quan Xing Yuan Tao and seems to be Yuan Tao's disciple. But he seems to be a little bit mentally ill, like a child."
Jin Renfeng explained,
"Tianxiahui doesn't have any information about him, so I thought of handing it over to you guys at Nadutong to handle it, and check his identity at the same time."
"I have never heard of such a person in Quanxing. I guess he didn't do much evil in the past.
Xu San shook his head.
"By the way, my disciple is here, but where is Yuan Tao himself?"
"I have killed him."
Jin Renfeng said in a deep voice,
"Killed?"
Xu San was stunned.
"Yes, the body is still lying in the woods over there!"
Jin Renfeng pointed to the location of the previous battle and said,
"In addition, there are also Thunder Smoke Cannon Gao Ning, Intestine Poison Dou Mei, and Corpse Demon Tu Junfang. I have eliminated them all. If you want their bodies, you can also look for them over there."
Xu San was shocked.
Each of these names is well-known.
Tu Junfang and Yuan Tao are the top masters in the world, and their strength is no less than that of the leaders of various major sects.
Gao Ning and Dou Mei are two of the three arrogant ones. Although they are slightly weaker than Yuan Tao, their skills are three times more difficult to master.
In the alien world, these people were terrifying figures that made people tremble with fear. But the man in front of him kept saying that he had killed these people.
"Are you serious? Are you kidding?" Xu San asked doubtfully.
Even though Xu San boasted that he had seen a lot of the world, he had never seen so many Quan Xing monsters being killed in one night.
"If you don't believe it, just send someone to confirm it."
Jin Renfeng said nonchalantly.
Seeing that he looked very serious, Xu San quickly sent someone to confirm.
After a while, he got the news from the intercom. "The bodies of Yuan Tao, Gao Ning, and Dou Mei have been found. There is no trace of the corpse demon Tu Junfang yet."
It turned out to be true!
Xu San was so shocked that his eyes widened.
This Jin Renfeng actually slaughtered four Quan Xing masters.
"Mr. Jin? Where is Tu Junfang's body?"
Xu San asked.
"I beat Tu Junfang to pieces, so you can't find him."
Jin Renfeng said casually.
Xu San nodded and believed it.
Yuan Tao and the others have found it, so this Tu Junfang should not be fake.
There is no need for the other party to lie to him.
But come to think of it, the strength of the young man in front of him, who is younger than him, is really terrifying. Counting Shen Chong before, the Three Corpses and Four Madmen were all killed by him. With the death of so many masters, Quan Xing can be said to have suffered a great loss of vitality overnight.
"Mr. Xu San! What are the casualties this time?"
Just then, the old Taoist priest came over and asked about the casualties.
"Five of our people were killed and twelve were seriously injured."
Xu San said, "The rest of the people only suffered minor injuries and are not seriously injured."
"Three people from our Tianshi Mansion died in this battle, and eleven were seriously injured. They were all young people of junior generation."
The old Taoist priest lowered his eyes and his face was like a puddle of stagnant water.
Jin Renfeng, who was standing by, couldn't help but freeze when he heard this conversation.
In his memory, he only remembered that Zhi Jinhua, Xiao Xiao, and Xi were all seriously injured in this Quanxing incident.
I didn’t expect that in addition to these three people, so many unknown people died in this battle.
"So many people were killed and injured. Quan Xing was really ruthless this time!"
Jin Renfeng thought to himself.
Eight people were killed in the battle and twenty-three were seriously injured. This is already a huge number of casualties in the world of extraordinary people.
This was the result after his intervention. If he hadn't intervened, the casualties would have been even more severe.
"Sorry, old man! We were not well prepared this time! I was thinking of helping you settle the matter, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this..."
An expression of regret appeared on Xu San's face.
Originally, this was a plan set up by Nadutong, Tianshi Mansion and the Lu family in collaboration.
They planned to use the Tianshi Mansion as a venue and Zhang Chulan as bait to lure out all the monsters and then capture them all in one fell swoop.
But they didn't expect that there were too many people coming from Quanxing, and they were short of manpower. The attempt to catch a turtle in a jar turned out to be a case of catching fish in a broken net.
"If we had brought more people, this wouldn't be the case."
"It's not your fault. After all, these people haven't caused any trouble for decades."
The old Taoist priest looked sad.
"Not to mention you, even I almost forgot how crazy they can be."
"It's because I, an old man, didn't think things through! I dragged so many young people into this matter in a moment of thought."
"Master, please don't say that!"
Xu San advised,
"This operation was planned by Nadutong and Tianshi Mansion. We will work together to deal with Quan Xing monster."
"Before coming here, each of us knew how dangerous this trip was, and we were all prepared. As for responsibility, it's not your turn to bear it alone!"
The old Taoist priest shook his head slowly.
"Master, Mr. Jin, Third Brother!"
Zhang Chulan came over with Feng Baobao and interrupted the conversation.
"Chu Lan! I was just about to look for you, but I didn't expect you to come here by yourself."
The old Taoist priest glanced at Zhang Chulan and spoke first.
"Master, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Zhang Chulan swallowed and said reluctantly.
"Of course it's the previous inheritance!"
The old Taoist priest turned around and walked towards the woods.
"Come with me!"
Zhang Chulan followed obediently.
Looking at the two people's backs, Jin Renfeng knew that they were going to discuss the inheritance of Tianshidu.
If nothing unexpected happens, Zhang Chulan will still refuse to inherit the position of Heavenly Master.
After all, he knew that the Tianshi Degree was a restriction. Even if Zhang Chulan was stupid, he would not put the golden hoop on his head like Monkey King.
"Old Taoist priest, your efforts are in vain!" Jin Renfeng shook his head.
Although he was not aware of the specific secrets of the Tianshi Mansion, judging from the old Tianshi's actions, the old man wanted to use the Tianshi Degree to restrain Zhang Chulan and save the alien world from a disaster.
However, he did not expect that the Luotian Grand Ceremony he had organized with great effort not only failed to restrain Zhang Chulan, but instead caused a commotion in Longhu Mountain.
. . . . . .
In a warehouse at the foot of Longhu Mountain.
A young man sat on a pile of boxes, playing with a paper figure in his hand out of boredom.

The door opened and a dark figure walked in.
"Barron? Why is it you?"
Seeing the person coming, the young man asked in surprise.
"Do you have a doctor here? Xia is seriously injured and needs urgent treatment."
Barron yelled as he rushed in.
Hearing this, the young man looked at the figure lying on Barron's shoulder.
"Oh! It's Old Man Xia! I didn't expect he would have such a miserable day."
The young man laughed jokingly.
"Who beat him like this?"
"Stop talking nonsense. Is there a doctor?"
Barron shouted.
"No!"
The young man shook his head and spread his hands.
"You can see that no one has returned to this base so far. Where did the doctor come from?"
"Where is the nearest hospital here?"
Barron asked eagerly.
"Not sure! We came here for Mount Longhu this time, and the hospital is not in our plan."
The young man said casually,
"Besides, we have special identities. If we go to the hospital, we might be arrested immediately."
"Barron, I advise you to stop worrying about Old Man Xia. He is so badly injured. Even if he goes to the hospital and saves his life, he will be a cripple at best. Why bother with a cripple?"
Barron was incredulous.
"You are companions, how can you treat him like this?"
As a former mercenary, he felt that the man in front of him was acting very unconventionally.
They were obviously comrades-in-arms who had acted together, so how could you abandon your comrade after he was injured?
"What's wrong? We are Quanxing, and this is the purpose of Quanxing!"
The young man laughed.
"Keep your true nature intact and don't let material things burden you. For us, anything that drags us down is external. Only ourselves are the most important."
"They gather together only for their own benefit. It is normal for each family to mind their own business and not to worry about other people's troubles."
Barron's face darkened.
"That person is right. You all are a bunch of heartless and heartless scum!"
The young man laughed.
"We are scum, but we are a group of free scum."
"Barron, if you want to join Quanxing too, you should change your mindset as soon as possible."
“Freedom should be controlled, not unbridled.”
Barron couldn't help but curse.
The young man was stunned and looked at him strangely.
"No! Don't you feel awkward talking to me about the freedom of moderation as a white ghost?"
Seeing that he was totally unwilling to listen, Barron turned around and rushed out of the room.
He didn't have time to waste with this guy anymore, he had to find a way to treat Xia.
"What a weird guy!"
Looking at Barron leaving, the young man muttered.
