Chapter 155 Moment of Judgement
“That is a Gu. It’s just a little trick that he used,” said Chu Feng casually. He glanced at Master Wu’s body that was beginning to rot and explained, “This is the Blood Essence Gu, which belongs to a more inferior species of Gu. Breeders use their own essence and blood to feed these worms.
By triggering the secret techniques, they will acquire a short burst of strength. It may seem like a magical way to progress their skills by leaps and bounds, but this is actually suicide. It won’t take long before those worms start sucking up their blood and essence. After that, they will just turn into a dry corpse.”
The crowd was finally enlightened but fear still lingered in their hearts. No wonder Chen Song was already a sixth class martial artist at such a young age.
That was the reason why Master Wu’s body swelled up after sucking dry Chen Song’s blood and essence and his powers also increased tremendously. So, these vicious worms were the source of all that chaos.
“Damn it, I’m already starting to feel sick just by looking at it. Just kill it already,” Pesky Bear snapped. He immediately squashed the disgusting worm with a stomp, sending chills down everyone’s spine.
“This is really an eye-opener for me today. I must have been so shallow-minded in the past.” Murong Cang sighed.
Chu Feng just shook his head in disdain. Master Wu’s witchcraft with the poisonous worms was just a childish play in his eyes.
He had witnessed what a true expert breeder of Gu was capable of. They could take control of one’s mind with the worms and even inconspicuously slaughter people from a thousand miles away.
If they could successfully breed a ‘King of Gu’, they could even manipulate poisons that were within a hundred miles’ radius. They could massacre tens of thousands of people within minutes and even slaughter an entire city.
He had witnessed such a terrifying sorcery in the Holy Temple which could wipe out humanity. That was why he had risked his life to demolish the Holy Temple.
After allying with a few elders from the city, they established laws and regulations that banned such sorceries and witchcrafts from entering the Central Plains of China forever!
Chu Feng’s eyes glistened and said coldly, “If I was not mistaken, the country had enforced a law three years ago, stating whoever collaborated with sorcerers that practice the craft of Gu and caused disasters in the Central Plains, would be sentenced to death.”
His gaze turned toward Zhou Zhenghao who was beside him. Zhou Zhenghao’s body was trembling all over. “And you, you had the audacity to commit crimes that are against the rules and ignore the laws. Are you out of your mind?”
“Zhou Zhenghao, you colluded with the evil forces and defied the national law.You won’t be able to atone for your crimes even through death!”
“Hmph, just hand him over to the police and let them put a bullet through his head.”
Ma Sanyuan, Murong Cang and the others also started yelling at him furiously after hearing what Chu Feng had said .
If Chu Feng had not gotten himself involved and killed Master Wu, who was a demonic sorcerer this day, all of them would probably have had their blood sucked up dry by those worms. That was why they hated Zhou Zhenghao to the bone.
Zhou Zhenghao’s face turned pale and he dropped to his knees in an instant as he pleaded, “ I was wrong, Grandmaster Chu, I have truly made a big mistake. Please spare my life. I am willing to hand over all my territories in the Central City and the Northern City. I hereby swear to you that I will never enter Jiangbei again.
At the same time, I am also willing to offer you my wealth, ten billion in total, which I’ve accumulated throughout the years overseas. I will give them to you without any terms and conditions and all I ask for in return, is to keep me alive. How does that sound to you?” Zhou Zhenghao clenched his teeth as he begged painstakingly.
These wealth and territories had been his blood and sweat from all these years. It was no different than digging his heart out when he offered to give them away to Chu Feng just like that.
Nonetheless, it was still better than having to lose his life.
Ma Sanyuan, Black Widow and the gang leaders’ eyes all lit up, exposing a look of greed in their gazes.
The territory of those two cities and wealth that was worth nearly 10 billion was something that even the Tang family, which was the richest family in Jiangling, had to work hard for three generations to amass. As for Chu Feng, he could just inherit such an amount overnight; this was the true power of a grandmaster!
The crowd was in awe and everyone was envious.
Zhou Zhenghao breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that, thinking that he had some hopes now. He forced a smile out and said, “Mister Chu, I will ask my men to transfer the money immediately—”
However, Chu Feng just let out a condescending sneer at this moment. “Who told you that I’m letting you off? The laws of a nation must not be defied. You thought that I was joking with you?” Chu Feng looked patronizing and had such an imposing demeanor that Zhou Zhenghao started to feel suffocated.
“Someone had once offered me wealth that was enough to build a country, and the power to demolish a dynasty in order for me to spare his life. I was not even tempted by that. Now you’re expecting me to give you a way out just by giving me 10 billion? Who do you think you are?”
Chu Feng extended his fingers that seemed as if they packed the power of a thousand thunderbolts toward the top of Zhou Zhenghao’s head.
“Please spare my life, Mr. Chu!”
