Chapter 50: The Bone-Chilling Ghost Head Blade, Demon-Slaying Qin Faces Execution! (Seeking to Pursue and Read)
The reaction from the government office was better than Qin Zheng had anticipated.
Or rather, Gao Wusheng's reaction.
The other party did not choose to force him to swallow the Brain Devouring Pill directly.
As he walked out of the government office, leaving behind the somewhat chilly building, this thought crossed his mind.
Qin Zheng could guess the reason for this. It was probably because he had made the bear demon's execution public, and they were reluctant to act due to this.
Or perhaps, the transaction between the bear demon and Gao Wusheng had already been completed.
Killing the bear demon was not a significant matter for Gao Wusheng.
Furthermore, he could use the background of the bear demon's half-demon status to coerce and threaten Qin Zheng.
According to Gao Wusheng, the half-demon's parents were a Human Clan Grandmaster and a Shapeshifting Great Demon.
They wanted to avenge their half-demon child and were coming to hunt down Qin Zheng.
Gao Wusheng wanted Qin Zheng to succumb to the immense pressure, seek his protection, and willingly swallow the Brain Devouring Pill.
But Qin Zheng wasn't foolish. Why would he wait in Black Goose City for them to come?
After all, he was alone in Black Goose City, with hardly any acquaintances.
He could pack his belongings, leave the city, and disappear into the vast world beyond.
In such a vast world, where couldn't he go?
Why stay here and wait for two people he couldn't handle to come knocking on his door for revenge?
Perhaps, to the people of this world, this place was their hometown, their roots.
So, unless absolutely necessary, they would never leave their homeland and venture far away.
But for Qin Zheng, there were no such constraints.
He was a time-traveler, and this place held no sentimental value for him.
Now, with unwelcome guests arriving, it was time to leave without delay!
Qin Zheng displayed his lightfoot techniques and quickly returned to his residence in the southern part of the city.
He hastily packed a bundle, gathered the silver coins and bills he had collected, and prepared some provisions and clothing.
Looking at the small courtyard where he had lived for not too long, Qin Zheng sighed softly and then turned to leave.
At this moment, after a day of spreading the news, Qin Zheng's name had already echoed throughout Black Goose City.
The Bone-Chilling Ghost Head Blade, Demon-Slaying Qin Faces Execution!
This proverb was on the lips of the citizens of Black Goose City as they spread the news of Qin Zheng's demon-slaying.
As Qin Zheng walked through the streets of Black Goose City, he was immediately recognized by the citizens, who cheered and hailed him.
This situation made Qin Zheng slightly embarrassed, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Without someone guiding them, how could all the citizens have learned of his demon-slaying in such a short time?
There must be someone deliberately spreading the news of his demon-slaying!
They were making him a beacon in the night, attracting malicious attention!
And there was no doubt that the one behind this was Gao Wusheng from the government office!
Qin Zheng briefly acknowledged the surrounding citizens who had gathered around him.
Then, using his lightfoot techniques, he quickly escaped the crowd and sped towards the city's outskirts.
With Gao Wusheng's actions, something must have changed, and it was best for Qin Zheng to leave as soon as possible!
Initially, Qin Zheng had planned to leave a message at the East City Ruins Temple and pay his respects at the new grave.
But given the current situation, it seemed he wouldn't be able to do so.
Upon noticing the change, Qin Zheng's brow furrowed, indicating a foreboding feeling!
As he approached the southern city gate, he found it surrounded by law enforcement officers.
The number was far from ordinary!
Was Gao Wusheng trying to keep him forcibly in Black Goose City to wait for his demi-demon parents to arrive?!
Qin Zheng immediately guessed Gao Wusheng's intentions, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.
However, now was not the time to turn around and seek revenge.
Gao Wusheng's background was simply too large.
Wang and Gao, Share the World!
The oppression from these six words was truly immense.
For now, he would leave him a dog's life!
He would come back and settle the score once he became stronger!
With this thought, Qin Zheng's body tensed slightly, preparing to use his lightfoot techniques to dash out of the city gate.
At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared in his line of sight.
The person waved lightly, clearly signaling to him.
It was Xu Weisan, the Capture Chief.
Qin Zheng's brows twitched slightly, and he then walked over to the other party.
"Black Goose City's four city gates are all sealed off, and the riverbank in the west is also under surveillance by the government office."
As soon as Qin Zheng approached, Xu Weisan spoke immediately.
Qin Zheng looked at him and asked, "Can I still trust you, Xu Capture Chief?"
Last time, the other party had said that upon his return, he would take Gao Wusheng's Brain Devouring Pill and truly become Gao Wusheng's subordinate.
Xu Weisan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.
He showed Qin Zheng his attire, which was regular clothing, not the black robe of a capture chief.
"I came here quietly today, you can rest assured."
"Many things have happened these past few days, and Gao Wusheng hasn’t had the chance to give me the Brain Devouring Pill yet. I am still trustworthy."
Xu Weisan continued, "I know what's happening with you. There's no time to waste; I'll take you out of Black Goose City."
Qin Zheng slightly shifted his body, dodging the hand that reached out to him, and said, "Thank you for your concern, Xu Capture Chief, but—"
He glanced at the group of law enforcement officers at the city gate and chuckled, "Such a mob, whether they seal off the gate or not, it doesn't really make much of a difference."
As he spoke,
Bang!
The stone bricks on the ground cracked!
A figure, like an arrow, suddenly shot out of the city gate.
The group of law enforcement officers at the city gate hadn't even reacted yet.
Seeing this, Xu Weisan's eyes darkened, a hint of gloom appearing in his gaze.
But at the same time, there was also a deeply hidden sense of relief.
"He's escaped! Chase him!!!"
"Quickly, mount your horses and chase him!!!"
"..."
At this moment, the group of law enforcement officers at the city gate finally reacted, shouting loudly.
Xu Weisan took a few steps forward, hands behind his back, exuding a deep aura.
"Enough, don't chase him. Stay here."
He looked at the panicked and hurried law enforcement officers and shouted.
Truly, a mob of amateurs.
This thought flashed through his mind.
"Xu Capture Chief, but that person is—"
An officer said, full of reluctance.
"That person beheaded a Bone Refinement Realm expert and cut off the head of a bear demon!"
"What would you achieve by chasing after him? Rushing to your death?!"
Xu Weisan looked at the reluctant officer and coldly rebuked him.
These words immediately made the surrounding law enforcement officers sober up.
The reward promised by the government office was indeed generous, but one needed to be alive to enjoy it.
Meanwhile.
A hundred miles outside Black Goose City, a pair of pristine white shoes stepped out of the majestic mountain range, heading towards Black Goose City.
