The Demon Lord of the Outside World

"You mean... I used the resources I finally earned during this period to hire four rank four Gu Masters... and they all died like this?"

On the top floor of Wangui Building, Jia Gui's eyes widened, half-shocked and half-angry, as he looked at his subordinates who were reporting the situation.

He was angry. After many twists and turns, he managed to use public opinion to suppress the fact that he had spent a lot of resources to search for the fifth-transportation path Gu insect, but it came to nothing. Then he tried his best to use the few resources he had on hand to hire several level four Gu Masters to capture that person, but the result was still in vain.

And Nu is angry because out of the four Gu Masters he hired, three of them are Level 4 Gu Masters. And these four Gu Masters were killed like this? So what is the opponent's strength?

Fourth-level mid-level?

Or a fourth-level high-level one?

Perhaps in the eyes of Gu Immortal, this state is nothing more than ants fighting each other or wild dogs biting each other. But in the mortal world, level four Gu masters are absolutely top-notch masters.

People in the demonic path are naturally divided into strong and weak levels. After some young demonic Gu Masters show their prominence and strength, if they can still survive under the wanted encirclement and suppression of the righteous path, they will be called the new stars of the demonic path.

In the original work, the first person recognized as a rising star of the demonic path in southern Xinjiang was Fang Yuan, who had reached the fourth level of high-level cultivation during the Battle of Three Kings Mountain. And his record was to kill seven third-level and fourth-level Gu masters from the Tie family.

This kind of strength is almost helpless under the super powers in the mortal world.

Jia Gui is almost in a state of despair at the moment. When the gap in strength is large enough, what needs to be considered is not whether the other party can be eliminated, but whether the other party will suddenly come to kill him one day.

"My lord, my lord!"

Just as Jia Gui was getting more and more frightened as he thought about it, the door of the room was pushed open by a boy. Jia Gui was so frightened that he trembled all over and subconsciously thought that someone was coming to kill him.

"You bastard! Who let you in!"

Jia Gui angrily scolded the boy who broke in, mostly to hide his uneasiness.

The boy did not immediately apologize under Jia Gui's rebuke. Instead, he continued to speak out of breath, and ran up all at once, obviously in a hurry.

"S-Sir... someone from the Tie family is here...!"

"!"

……………………

"You mean... that demonic thief not only sneaked into a pavilion in your Fujia City to commit murder, causing you heavy losses, but also killed several righteous men who came to help him after the fourth level?"

"Yes, yes, this evil thief is extremely evil and lawless!"

In the guest room, Jia Gui's face was filled with resentment and a desire to please. Sitting opposite Jia Gui were two Gu masters dressed in powerful clothes with the emblem of the Tie family on their clothes.

Two Gu masters, one with a scar on his face and a heavy back. One has a childish face and is cynical.

"Two adults of the Tie family, you must uphold justice for Fujia City and kill that demonic traitor!"

Jia Gui spoke so excitedly that he almost reached out to grab the other party's sleeves, but stopped under the cold gaze of the other party.

"You said that the demonic Gu Master caused trouble in your Fujia City. Do you have any clues about his whereabouts and the characteristics of that person?"

"Yes, yes. The underworld butterflies in my Jia family can emit soul fragrance and be planted on the Gu insects. This fragrance is colorless and tasteless and lasts forever. The demon thief stole many Gu insects from my Jia family. Naturally, they were Planting the fragrance of the soul.”

"If the two adults want to investigate the case, Jia will give their full help. All I ask is that the two adults must kill the Lan Tian thief!"

……………………

It was night, in Fujia City, in an inn.

The two Tie Family Gu Masters during the day were now standing side by side in front of the inn window, looking at the night view of Fujia City.

After a moment, the young and immature Gu Master spoke first.

"That Jia Gui during the day was full of nonsense. He kept saying that he was going to help with all his strength, but in the end, everything he said was just nonsense!"

"Hey...Xunji, you think too much..."

The tall scar-faced Gu Master next to the boy known as Iron Swift responded, his tone completely different from Bai Ri's gentle tone.

"How can you think too much? Tie Zhuo, you and I both know that Jia Gui actually just wants us to capture that Lan Tian. In essence, he wants us to leave quickly!"

Tie Xunji frowned when he said this, obviously dissatisfied with being treated in such an attitude.

Hearing this, Tie Zhuo shook his head helplessly and looked at Tie Xunji.

"You can see that Jia Gui wants us to leave quickly, but do you know why he does this?"

"this…………"

Seeing that Tie Xunji didn't know how to answer for a moment, Tie Zhuo shook his head helplessly.

"Today I inquired about some news in Fu Jia City. The Fang Pavilion mentioned by Jia Gui actually belongs to his brother Jia Fu. Even if Fang Pavilion suffers a loss, it is his brother and not him who loses it."

"And I also found out that after the incident at Yifang Pavilion in recent days, it was Jia Gui who settled the losses in his own name, and the result is that Jia Gui now has a very good reputation among the Jia family."

Hearing this, Tie Xunji raised his eyebrows.

"Are you saying that the accident at Yifang Pavilion was actually behind Jia Gui's back? That so-called Lan Tian was actually Jia Gui's subordinate?"

"If it is a subordinate, then Jia Gui will not let the other party escape from Fu Jia City. It is more likely to cooperate with someone who has an uneven distribution of the spoils or who wants to kill the donkey."

After just one day of investigation, Tie Zhuo basically saw the situation in Fujia City. This seemingly reckless man was actually experienced and ruthless.

"If that's the case, then Jia Gui is just using us as a gun? Where does he get the courage!"

After hearing Tie Zhuo's analysis, Tie Xunji was instantly furious and turned around to ask Jia Gui for an explanation.

However, just as he was about to move, he was stopped by Tie Zhuo.

"Xunji, do you think what Jia Gui said is really important?"

"How can it not be important! We are investigating the case, but he is covering it up like this, isn't it..."

"Are we really here to investigate the case?"

Tie Zhuo interrupted Tie Xunji and shook his head helplessly.

"No, we are not here to investigate the case, we are here to make achievements."

Speaking of this, Tie Zhuo sighed and patted Tie Xunji's shoulder gently.

"Xunji, you are one of the eight young masters of the Tie family, and you are also the youngest one, but time waits for no one... Young Master Tie Ruonan is regarded as a visionary by Lord Tiexue Shenbu, Young Master Yayoi is favored by the three elders, and other young masters have also made some moves during this period. If you, Xunji, have no achievements to show for yourself during this period, you will definitely be overshadowed by other young masters."

Tie Zhuo looked at Tie Xunji, who had a gloomy face, and felt helpless. As a servant, his relationship with his master was naturally one of prosperity and loss. In the current situation, they needed achievements that could be shown off.

"Jia Gui hid it from him, and we did ours. As long as the interests did not conflict with each other, nothing should be taken too seriously...Xunji, you are still young, but time is tight now, so we have to hurry up."

After saying that, Tie Zhuo turned around and looked out the window again.

"According to Jia Gui, that demon Lan Tian may have a fourth-level high-level combat power, which is comparable to me. If we make arrangements, we have a high probability of taking him down with our manpower."

Tie Zhuo clenched his fist slightly, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes, as if he was staring at his prey.

"Young Master Yayoi is also nearby. If we delay, we will be easily preempted. So let's set off tonight. A fourth-level high-level demon thief is enough for you to stand out in the Tie family."
