Chapter 58 The Master of the Summoned Voice

  "How does it feel?" Hu Gao was a bit curious about what it felt like to be a Blood Slave.

  Guo Deyun's facial expression changed, furrowing his brow, biting his lip, and lowering his eyes, before finally squeezing out a sentence to describe his feelings.

  "I want to eat you, but I'm afraid of getting a stomachache!"

  Just after speaking out, Guo Deyun felt that what he said was problematic and looked at Hu Gao with some trepidation.

  "You're scolding me!" Hu Gao laughed, he saw that Guo De Yun was indeed a bit intimidated, and only said such a thing, thinking it was quite interesting.

  "I'm too lazy to play along with you, now I'll ask you some questions."

  "Speak without knowing!" Guo Deyun replied succinctly, and it seemed that Hu Gao didn't intend to make things difficult for him either.

  "First of all, tell me about the Guo family's situation."

  Although Hu Gao is the distant ancestor of the Hu family, he is very clear about his situation. He is just a lone wolf with no backing and is still weak at present. Although he has extraordinary talent and a shocking cultivation speed, and there is also a powerful divine beast by his side, he is still far from being able to contend with the top powers of Ning City. Therefore, he thinks about cultivating a batch of his own power, which will make things much more convenient in the future.

  He didn't originally want to set his sights on the Guo family, a large clan, but since Guo Deyun had come knocking on his door, he decided to give it a try and first place a pawn in the Guo household. In the future, if there was an opportunity, he would take over the Guo family and expand his own power.

  "Our Guo family is now somewhat lagging behind among the four major families, because my grandfather is already very old and his strength can no longer advance, while my father's cultivation is still far from that level. When my grandfather's time comes, it's possible that our Guo family will even lose its status as one of the four major families."

  "Hmm, I didn't expect the Guo family's power to be at the bottom among the four major families."

  Hú Gāo was somewhat surprised, he had long known that Níng Chéng had four major families besides the Hú family, but he hadn't expected the Guō family to be at the bottom. If he were to subdue the Guō family, he wondered if the other three families would not get along with the Guō family.

  Well, I hope it will be beneficial for myself in the future, otherwise it would really be a waste of energy.

  Hu Gao couldn't help it, now he can only take it one step at a time. After all, his own strength is still very weak, and everything can't be rushed.

  Then Hu Gao inquired about the situation of the Guo family and also gained a slight understanding of the other three families. Unfortunately, it's best for him not to expose himself too much now, as there are indeed many powerful people among the four families. If he makes any slight movement, he will easily be detected.

  Seeing Hu Gao thinking, Guo De Yun also stopped talking and glanced at the other three companions who fell on the mountain slope, feeling a bit sad.

  Three people died and one hundred were gone, but not like themselves, living as someone else's blood slave, freedom was lost, dignity was lost, and three or four people still had a pair of problems waiting to be dealt with.

  "Don't be sad, they won't die yet."

  Hu Gao's words suddenly interrupted Guo De Yun's train of thought.

  "What?!" Guo Deyun's heart skipped a beat, followed by regret, fear and other negative emotions flooding his mind.

  "I don't like killing people, so they're still alive. I also don't like trouble, so you've become a blood slave."

  Hu Gao looked at Guo De Yun's rich expression and continued without regard for his thoughts: "There is one more thing."

  "What's going on?" Guo Deyun felt a chill in his heart, he didn't understand whether Hu Gao was being genuinely kind by keeping these three people, or if he had ulterior motives. That Land Rover was easy to deal with, but those two family members...

  Now, Hu Gao still had something to ask him, and Guo De Yun really became a startled bird.

  "Just now when I was fighting with you, it seemed like you were wearing a inner armor?"

  "Yes!" Guo Deyun was still relieved that he had worn this armor, otherwise, taking Hu Gao's flurry of punches would not have been just a flesh wound. But Hu Gao's next request made Guo Deyun's face turn sour.

  "Wearing inner armor is bad for your practice, it's easy to become dependent on it. Take it off and I'll keep it for you."

  “……”

  Guo Deyun suddenly felt a thread of contempt in his heart, but immediately extinguished it. His previous sentence "eat bad stomach" was not scolding Hu Gao, but a true feeling.

  For someone who can kill himself, fear arises and many worries are triggered.

  "This inner armor is a mid-grade treasure among the human ranks, and even ordinary 9th-stage Condensed Shadow Realm warriors would find it difficult to break through. It was a gift given to me by my grandfather last year."

  "This inner armor is pretty good, it can actually withstand a 9th stage Condensed Shadow Realm warrior's attack, heh heh, nice stuff..."

  Hú Gāo almost without thinking, immediately took off his top and put it on himself in front of Guō Déyún, not feeling embarrassed at all. This thing is absolutely good stuff! Just now during the fight, he was exhausted to the point of near death, but it turned out that this treasure could even withstand a 9th-level warrior, no wonder it's so awesome.

  Kuang De Yun really couldn't bear to look, turning his head to one side, he was truly worried that he wouldn't be able to restrain himself from taking action against Hu Gao.

  "It's still quite fitting."

  Hú Gāo put on his inner armor and felt it for a moment, nodding in satisfaction.

  This thing is indeed a treasure for him now, at least he thinks it's more useful than the Shadow Sword.

  Although he had a jade pendant that could quickly heal wounds, these days he was really too miserable to be injured. Who would willingly suffer injuries? Did they think it didn't hurt?

  Now that I have defensive inner armor, even if I get hurt in the future, it won't be as bad.

  It was as if he couldn't bear to look at Hu Gao fiddling with the treasure armor that still held his body temperature, so Guo De Yun shifted Hu Gao's attention and said: "The person lying on top is a Road Tiger, not someone from my Guo family. He also has quite a few treasures on him."

  Hú Gāo was delighted and said: "Quickly go get it for me!"

  "Yes!"

  Guo Deyun accepted the order and went off with his gun.

  Hu Gao watched as this guy acted, only to see Guo De Yun walk up to the Land Rover's side, stand for a while, say something, then raise his flame gun and shoot it into the man's forehead.

  As ruthless as expected!

  Hu Gao smiled as he watched Guo De Yun walk back, presenting the things they had found.

  Not as expected, this Land Rover carries very little, some gold coins, a treasured sword, and a wrist guard.

  The dagger was a treasured blade of the highest quality, but Hu Gao didn't think much of it. He already had his trusty Shadow Sword, and this wide, heavy Goose Feather Knife wasn't suitable for him to use. However, Hu Gao didn't give up on it.

  "Take care of this knife for me first, and I'll ask you to return it when we get back to Ning City. These gold coins will be yours as a reward. It's not easy to come out on a trip like this."

  "Thank you!" Guo Deyun managed to squeeze out a sentence, originally thinking that he could exchange this knife for the Wuying Sword, but...

  Hu Gao took a liking to that wrist guard. Its quality wasn't as high as the Wild Goose Knife, but it was still a mid-grade item for humans, capable of increasing the user's strength by a few points.

  Watching Hu Gao put on the wrist guard, he swung his fist to test its power. The swift fist hit the air, making a loud "whooshing" sound, and when it hit the mountain rock, it directly smashed out a large pit, shattering into pieces.

  Guo Deyun was once again grateful that he had worn the treasured armor earlier, and his heart ached again. He couldn't understand what kind of freak this young man from the Hu family's inheritance, who was only in the sixth stage of the Condensed Shadow Realm, was to have such great fist strength at such a young age.

  Just now, Hu Gao's punch on the reclining cow stone clearly showed the air of Qianqing Palm sweeping across, the internal strength of Dian Cang finger concentrated, and the external strength of Suishi Mianquan bursting out!

  "This wrist guard is made from the leg skin of a Rampage Rhinoceros, which has explosive strength and can jump on rocky mountains. The wrist guard made from the entire peeled-off skin armor on the legs of a Rampage Rhinoceros can increase the wearer's power by half at ordinary times. If activated with yuan force, it can increase one to three percent of power."

  "You know quite a lot."

  Hú Gāo tried using different elemental forces and felt quite suited to his own, although still a bit hard to control. But once he got familiar with it, the 30% power increase, combined with his two original powers, was a perfect fusion, just thinking about it made him feel somewhat excited.

  Guo De Yun sighed and said, "This wrist guard was stolen from me by this Road Tiger two years ago. It's a complete set, should be made of the skin peeled off from the same Rock Rhinoceros' limbs, unfortunately my grandfather only bought a pair of wrist guards."

  No wonder!

  Hu Gao suddenly understood and said: "I thought that was your friend, so you've figured out how to explain today's events to your family?"

  "He was originally a friend, but for your sake, he had no choice but to become my target of revenge." Guo Deyun nodded in agreement with Hu Gao's idea.

  "This is your business, well done!" Hu Gao retracted his fist and showed two rows of white teeth to Guo De Yun, revealing a smile of appreciation.

  "Hu Gao, are you going into the Dragon Jia Mountain Range?" Guo De Yun asked.

  Now Hu Gao is heading in the direction of Longjia Mountain Range.

  Hu Gao was still quite worried, the demonic beasts in the Dragon-Tiger Mountain Range were just too numerous, with first-class demonic beasts everywhere, and even second-class demonic beasts would occasionally appear in the outer periphery. Generally, warriors with cultivation below the Unity Realm wouldn't be able to enter the Dragon-Tiger Mountain Range alone.

  "Heh heh, don't worry about it, I'm not that easy to kill." Feeling Guo De Yun's thoughts, Hu Gao smiled faintly and brushed off his sleeves before turning around and leaving.

  After walking a few steps, Hu Gao suddenly turned his head and said something to Guo Deyun:

  "Come on, call the master to come and listen!"

  This...

  Haha, feels good!
