The Cruel Tyrant

69

Su Mu quickly forgot about the news that someone was plotting against him, because he had more difficult things to deal with.

The moon hung high up in the night sky. Su Mu sat on the side of the bed with a grumpy expression, looking at the two demons of pestilence standing in front of his bed, and said angrily: "I need to rest, can you two not show up?"

It had been three days. Whenever Ye Qingfeng found a chance to appear in front of Su Mu, he would be sent flying by the omnipresent Gu Yunzhou and his sword. Of course, so long as Gu Yunzhou tried to be alone with Su Mu, Ye Qingfeng would also show up and follow close behind, causing Su Mu to not only be unable to do business, but also unable to take a good rest.

Ye Qingfeng looked at him with a sorrowful expression on his face and said, "Darling, I'm here to accompany you to rest, but this annoying guy is being an eyesore. Can you please drive him away."

Gu Yunzhou glanced murderously at him, the iron sword in his hand ready to be unsheathed.

How could he be able to sleep in such a situation! Su Mu rubbed his temples. Suddenly, he changed into a smiling expression, stood up and walked to the two unsuspecting men, and quickly snapped out his hand to tap their pressure points. He then walked out the door with a dark expression.

He must find a place where the two of them wouldn't be able to find him and take a good rest. The cutting night wind outside blew by, cold and bitter. Su Mu psused, not knowing where to go at that moment.

The city of Anyang at night was quiet and gloomy. As Su Mu flew across the roofs he looked at the piles of rubbish and dilapidated houses and frowned deeply. It was not like a city at all, lying on the street everywhere were sleeping beggars. If Anyang City still possessed a bit of liveliness during the day, it was like a dead city at night.

It seemed that Yang Hanbo had robbed the people clean of anything he could. Su Mu stood on a tall building. This place should belong to the rich and powerful. It stood in sharp contrast with the low houses next to it. Light could be seen from a section of the street not far away, the bright lights lighting up the streets and highlighting the moving human shaped shadows. Su Mu circulated his inner energy and was about to make his way over when suddenly a dozen people in black charged up from the courtyard under his feet to surround Su Mu.

Su Mu stood in place, not at all surprised, his eyes cold and emotionless. These black-clothed men surrounding Su Mu had high martial arts skills. Without saying a word, they raised their weapons and attacked Su Mu, aiming at his vital parts.

Like a ghost, Su Mu's figure flitted quickly among the people in black. Without exception, anyone who was touched by Su Mu instantly stopped breathing. Suddenly, a sharp arrow cut through the air, aiming straight at Su Mu. With a wave of his sleeve, it was directly knocked aside, but immediately afterwards the sound of more arrows whistled through the sky, dozens of arrows aiming towards Su Mu's vital parts from all different directions. The men in black who were still engaged in combat with Su Mu seemed to completely disregard these arrows, continuing to attack Su Mu with a desperate fervor.

A black-clothed man pierced his sword towards Su Mu's chest. A murderous light flashed in Su Mu's eyes and he grabbed the black-clothed man's wrist and pulled him in front of him. A series of fleshy sounds could be heard and blood sprayed out everywhere. The black-clothed man was shot directly into a sieve. Seeing that more and more people were hiding in the dark and shooting arrows, Su Mu frowned and flew away. But the men in black behind him continued to chase after him. Although they couldn't catch up to Su Mu, they also couldn't be rid of at the moment either.

These people were not weak in their martial arts skills so they should not be unnamed nobodies. There was a great possibility that they were from jianghu. Could it be that Fan Qiang mentioned earlier? Su Mu glanced behind him and then accelerated his speed, charging into the dense forest outside the city. A black-clothed man made a gesture, and everyone immediately dispersed and charged into the forest.
