C157 Dark tower

North of the city, on the third street, was an area filled with all sorts of people: dragons and snakes. To the east and west were over five hundred meters long, and there were teahouses, wine houses, brothels, and gambling houses.

The Xuanyang City had been established for several hundred years, and this street had been around for several hundred years, which made it a completely illegal place. Even the Four Major Clans and the people from the Mayor Palace didn't dare to lay their hands on this place.

The underground powers had their own rules, so naturally, they would not be able to go outside of their range of influence. Back then, Gu Jiu was born here, if not for Gu Tianyuan's help, he would have been hacked to death a long time ago.

Ever since they had joined the Gu Family, the underground powers did not dare to offend Gu Jiu anymore, and even took the initiative to gain some benefits, just that at least thirty percent of the benefits on this street belonged to Gu Huang.

After all, Gu Huang had followed Gu Jiu ever since his father left, snuck around with these scum and scoundrels ever since he was young. Not only that, he had once kidnapped a disciple of one of the three great families at the age of twelve and blamed them on the bandits outside the city.

Everyone who participated in this battle benefited greatly. To these scum, the name of the ancient Second Young Master was equivalent to the name of a god.

Ever since Gu Qingxue went to the Profound Sun Sect, she rarely went there.

In actuality, the one who controlled this street was the most famous one in Xuanyang City, the Golden Lair Tower. On the surface, it was a place with an inn and a gambling den.

In the dark, there was a branch of Dark Paradise that specialized in assassinations, intelligence services, and was in charge of selling some black goods.

To the powers on the third street, the Dark Tower was an existence that they couldn't afford to offend.

At this moment, in the backyard of the Dark Tower, which occupied almost a third of the third street, the shadows of dozens of assassins flashed.

A ripple flashed through the air from time to time. Clearly, it had a formation or a seal similar to that of a Power of Space.

"OP, mission failed, target has escaped."

Assassin # 1's body materialized. He was still dressed in black, and his head was wrapped in a black cloth. He wore a black ghost mask on his face, revealing only a pair of blood-red eyes.

"You failed the mission and still dare to come back!"

This was an incomparably pitch-black space. One could not even see five fingers, and there was only an endless darkness and deathly stillness. An incomparably terrifying aura spread out from the depths of this space, causing people to unconsciously shiver and feel ice-cold.

Suddenly, candles began to light up one after another, bringing about a bit of light within this dark space. The light of the flames illuminated an incomparably terrifying shadow, as if it was an evil ghost that had come from purgatory.

"OP, the mission has failed. Your subordinate does not dare to refute."

"But the target is to disappear at the corner of Twelfth and Thirteenth. We've already searched all thirty-six streets north of the city."

"Only Star Seizer Pavilion. This subordinate did not go search, and on Thirteenth Street, only Star Seizer Pavilion is able to take people away from us."

"This subordinate has returned and would like to request an order from the Tower Lord to bring some people to flatten the Star Seizer Pavilion."

Assassin # 1 was kneeling on the ground. Although he was wearing a mask, one could tell from his shivering figure that he was extremely terrified.

The iron law of Dark Paradise. Failure in a mission, death.

However, Assassin # 1 was not willing to give up. He wanted a chance to make up for his mistake.

It was just a mere Xuanyang City, who would dare contend against their Dark Tower?

"Star Seizer Pavilion …"

"Forget it, this matter shall end here. Bring some people and closely monitor the Misty Chamber of Commerce."

"Without my order, no one is to make a move."

"There's a reason behind this matter. For the time being, we'll exempt you from the death penalty. You may leave now!"

The candle flame in the dark space disappeared, and the oppressive and terrifying aura dissipated. An irresistible force drove Assassin # 1 out.

After the figure of Assassin # 1 disappeared, it was silent for a full fifteen minutes. Countless strange lights suddenly flickered in all four directions. It completely lit up this dark and silent place until it was as bright as day.

A petite female figure appeared and instantly took off the black cloak and mask on her body, revealing a beautiful and elegant face. A pair of ruby-like eyes seemed to shine even brighter, and a head of flaming long hair fell straight down to her waist, a pair of inch-long horns sprouting from her head.

Unrivaled elegance and unparalleled charm could be seen. With every movement, a charming aura was exuded.

"How boring! When will Big Sister Qingxue return! "

"I really want to go out and eat delicious food …"

"Sister Qingxue, come back quickly!"

The young girl looked to be around fifteen or sixteen years old, but if she were to be deceived by her appearance, it would be a huge mistake. Her actual age was over a thousand years old.

To be able to become the manager of the Dark Paradise Branch, how could she be a simple existence? Her true cultivation had already reached the list of Great Lord Kings.

Furthermore, her battle power was enough to take on one or two tribulations by herself, but she came from a race of dark spirits that were close to extinction.

From this point alone, one could see just how terrifying the background of Dark Paradise was. Even experts from the Dark Spirit Clan who were on the verge of extinction were able to search this entire place thoroughly.

"He should be able to sneak out for a while. As long as he's careful, no one will notice him."

"But my Xuanyang City has recently gained the aura of many strong practitioners …"

"If I get caught by them, I better not go. I have the mission of being part of the Dark Spirit Tribe."

"Where exactly are the Son of Heaven s that can open their Great Void Heavenly Realm!?"

The girl let out a soft sigh. Her gaze looked up at the deathly dark space, filled with a ghastly helplessness. She really wanted to leave, but she didn't dare to!

Recently, her Xuanyang City had gained a few more powerful auras, one of which was unable to be sensed, but it caused her to feel fear.

With the Dark Spirit Race's past reputation, once they were found out, they would definitely become a street rat that everyone shouted they would kill.

Great Void Heavenly Realm, Son of Heaven, why hasn't he appeared yet?

Big Sister Qingxue was serious. She had clearly gone out to do some work and agreed to return in seven days. It had already been more than ten days!

Dressed in an azure colored brocade robe, with a hand holding onto a beautiful girl who was showing off her fan, Gu Huang looked at the Dark Tower that was almost occupying half of the street.

He opened the system map with his mind and saw that the entire Dark Tower was densely packed with purple light spots. There were around three to four hundred assassins from Congenital Realm to the Core Embracing, and there were more than thirty of them, along with four Divine Abilities Realm practitioners.

And in the deepest part of the Dark Tower, there was even a Great Lord King.

Stepping on a horse is a little tricky! The situation today was not good to be humiliated!

Do you want to go back and get someone?

No, if he sent a message to get someone in front of the little girl, wouldn't Desolate Devil King lose all his face?

If it wasn't for the Great Lord's Royal Mansion, using the little girl's Source Seal and Yu's help to flatten this place would have been a piece of cake.

"Gu Huang, where is your helper?"

"It can't be just the two of us, can it? If you want to fight with someone from a branch power organization like them, right?!"

"Damn, I don't want to die."

Qin Xi looked around, and simply did not see any other helpers. Just two of them and they dare to pick out a division of Dark Paradise, they are completely courting death!

I can guarantee that I won't even be left with anything left over...

Even a Sovereign King would not dare to choose a branch power organization with Dark Paradise.

"Little girl, this young master has always admired people for their virtue. Do you think that everyone is as brainless as you?"

"Today's matter is something I want to settle unfairly. In the future, how will I be able to establish a foothold in Xuanyang City?"

"This is my territory. Whoever dares to cause trouble, I'll f * cking kill him."

"Yu, how long will it take for you to successfully arrange the Primary Seal to suppress the Great Lord King?"

Gu Huang waved the fan in his hand gently, his expression did not change, but secretly he sent a sound transmission to Yu beside him. An Emperor Printing Master naturally had his methods to suppress the Great Lord King, but it would take some time for it to be set up.

"Principal Superior, I have already spied on him. The other party is the Dark Spirit Race's Great Lord King."

"To completely suppress it, we need the Divine Lightning Seal and the Space Primary Seal to mix together."

"An hour. At least an hour."

After all, the one he had to deal with was a Great Lord King, there was a difference in realm after all, if he was the Sovereign King's cultivation, he could easily suppress him.

"Good, it's good that you can suppress it. I'll help you delay it for two hours." The folding fan in Gu Huang's hand suddenly closed, and the corners of his mouth curled into a harmless smile.
