The first thing that the guards made Xu Chen faint was an extremely terrifying sight.
The bodies of his colleagues who had just three, now three more bodies. But that's not what makes the guard asphyxiate, but the condition of three new bodies.
The three of them lost their heads and someone was collecting the bodies.
A young man wearing a mask with a devil face that was none other than Xu Chen was collecting several corpses into one, right in front of the corpses there was a large enough hole.
Xu Chen then buried the corpses simultaneously hoping that no one would find them. It happened so fast, no one noticed it.
The guard could see a human wearing a mask with a devil face was approaching him slowly, he wanted to escape but his legs and body seemed to refuse to be moved.
The guard could only faint again but only pretended, hoping that the figure left him.
"Stop pretending or I'll make it a reality!" Xu Chen said coldly.
The guard was silent for a moment before gulping down his saliva already, he then cried and kowtowed at Xu Chen's feet, begging to be released.
"Say where is the Mayor's room?" Xu Chen paid no heed to the guard who was prostrating while crying at his feet.
Like a frightened person in general, the guard did not wait for Xu Chen to say it twice, himself bluntly saying the space of someone he should be guarding according to his duty.
Xu Chen nodded slowly before pulling back the Eternal Night Sword then slashing the guard's head quickly, even the guard had yet to realize anything.
Xu Chen stuffed the body of the guard in the hole he had made earlier, along with his other comrades. Xu Chen stomped his feet to the ground.
Instantly the ground trembled slightly and then closed tightly as it formed.
**
Inside the Mayor's residence, in a spacious and magnificent room with gold ornaments everywhere, there were two people sitting opposite at one table.
One person looks thirty years old wearing clothes made of silk like nobles.
Another was a young man who was roughly twenty years old or older, the appearance of the young man was quite attractive because he wore a thin veil that covered part of his face.
When viewed from the appearance and clothes worn by the young man it can be concluded that he was a citizen of the Meng Empire.
The two of them were seen talking casually and occasionally laughing loosely.
"Qin girls are very popular in the Meng Empire! their prices are very high! As long as Mayor Guan can keep up with our request, Mayor Guan won't have to worry about money anymore."
"Young Master Fang could not have to worry about the girls. Around here many villages ravaged by poverty and hunger, I could offer them outside work without knowing they would be made slaves."
Mayor Guan and Young Master Fang laughed together as they had reached a satisfactory business deal.
"I shouldn't be the one to thank you, because the Fei Family bought those useless people and gave them a spell. After all they should be grateful that it could be useful for the country!"
Young Master Fang smiled yet in his heart he smiled sinisterly. The young man was very fond of the official who always said as if the money the Fei Family had put into the state money, when clearly the money would flow in the pockets of officials like Guan Xing.
The mayor of Guan was none other than Xu Qing or at present Guan Xing, Xu Chen's uncle. While Young Master Fang was Fei Fang, the two who met Xu Chen at the restaurant. Both are doing business in slavery.
They've been doing this for a long time. Either how many citizens of the Qin Empire became slaves in their own country and other countries or how many depraved people treated humans like traded goods like Guan Xing or Fei Fang.
Despite all these things, the Qin Empire had decisively outlawed the system of slavery throughout its territory.
"Hehehe, I didn't think the two of you were in this place, it looks like fate is on my side!"
The laughter of Fei Fang and Guan Xing instantly came to a halt from hearing a voice they did not recognize. The two looked in one direction and found a man standing in the corner of the room staring at them.
The appearance of the person is very scary because he wears a mask with two canine teeth, but what was most frightening was that neither Fei Fang nor Guan Xing could see a sharp glare directed at them from behind the mask.
The eyes seemed to be sending death signals. The masked figure was none other than Xu Chen who had managed to find the location of the Mayor's room.
"Who are you? why did you get in here?" Guan Xing got up from his seat and pointed towards Xu Chen.
Unlike Guan Xing who shouted furiously, Fei Fang just sat still, the two of them as if sensing the danger from the masked figure, his instincts as if to say to, "run! run the fuckin' far!"
"How I got in doesn't matter! what is clear is that I'm here to make sure you can't see the morning sunshine anymore!" Xu Chen grinned widely while releasing a hint of death aura.
Guan Xing and Fei Fang became wary, both of them could feel a strange aura pressing down on them, but only slightly. Especially Guan Xing himself only realized that the figure had something strange.
The two also did not try to call the bodyguards, because they knew what Xu Chen was doing to their subordinates. Guan Xing also believed himself to have the highest ability in this place. He does not need his bodyguard.
Guan Xing or Xu Qing was Xu Chen's uncle, a senior official in the Xu Family back then. Although his strength was not greater than the leader of the Xu family, but he had sailed through the martial world long ago.
Xu Qing knew that the person standing was not upright, fearless in front of them was someone with extremely high abilities, let alone that masked figure could enter without any hindrance at all.
"You have a big mouth, with such low cultivation you want to finish me off," Xu Qing laughed sarcastically.
"Although I must admit that your young age has already reached Master realm," although Xu Chen's face was covered by a mask but Xu Qing was sure that the figure behind the mask was still very young.
"What an amazing achievement.but I'm sorry! Instead, it was you who would never see the sun again this morning after tonight," Xu Qing looked at Xu Chen coldly.
