The only place on Lingxiu Avenue where silver coins could be used must have some hidden secrets, and Qi Mingchen did not expect that this would be the base of the gang he encountered before.
At this time, the tavern was in a mess, with old wooden tables and chairs scattered everywhere.
Five people surrounded him. Qi Mingchen felt the strength of these people and frowned.
They are almost at the strength of the foundation building stage.
Then there must be an elixir formation period hidden!
During the fight, a plot against him may appear at any time.
In this case, it can only make the fight impossible...
Qi Mingchen made a decision, gathered all his spiritual power in his palms, kicked his feet hard, and spun his whole body like the wind, trying to make everyone's cheeks hit his slap as evenly as possible!
In just two seconds, he stood in the middle, and five people around him were lying on the ground, too dead to die.
This way, there is no room for backstabbing.
stop!
A flash of silver light!
A flying knife rushed straight to the door at a speed invisible to the naked eye, with strong killing intent.
Qi Mingchen was well prepared, dodged the attack sideways, and chased in the direction of the attack.
The attack just now came from the kitchen. He chased after it and saw that there was no one here.
From the power of the attack just now, we can probably deduce that this person's strength is the same as his, and they are both at the second level of pill formation.
It's just that the strength he has been showing has not exceeded the pill formation stage. It is impossible for the person in the dark to escape, so presumably he is still ambush.
Suddenly, a burst of blades struck from below!
There is actually a secret door under the stove!
Qi Mingchen was startled. He couldn't guard against the tricky attack. He didn't care about hiding his strength. He followed the force of the attack and grabbed the blade with one hand and lifted it up!
The other party obviously didn't expect that he would use this method, and he was pulled out a little by surprise. Before he could release the handle of the knife, he was grabbed by the collar and pulled out at once.
A wretched man in black appeared in front of Qi Mingchen.
"Snapped!"
The bloody slap struck the man's face without mercy.
The man in black's eyes widened, and he saw that a simple slap almost knocked him unconscious, and dizziness and fear filled his heart.
Facing this man wearing a black mask and shabby clothes, I suddenly had a strong feeling: This man is invincible!
Qi Mingchen looked at this man who was so frightened that he was shaking like a sieve, and wondered, is he so courageous?
But I have a vague feeling that the problem is not that simple.
He looked at his bleeding palms and remembered the last time he fought the wild boar.
Could it be that...the characteristics of my attack are not only effective against alien beasts?
He was ready to try again.
Thinking like this, he raised his hand and was about to slap the other person again.
"My lord! My lord, please spare my life!" The man quickly broke away from Kai Mingchen's hand and knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.
Among all the small forces under the name of the Canglong Sect, the second-level Danjie was considered a strong one, but at this moment, he was kneeling in front of him, who was also the second-level Danjie, crying and begging for mercy.
Give him a strong sense of unreality!
The opponent still has room to counterattack, or even break away from him. As long as he runs away with all his strength, he, who is unfamiliar with the terrain, will not be able to catch up.
So why do you still kneel down and beg for mercy?
"What are you afraid of?" he asked in a low voice.
Unexpectedly, this man was so frightened that he kowtowed harder, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have tried to trick you! I will never do such a thing again, please forgive me!"
He squatted down, pinched the man in black's chin, and looked into the man's eyes. There was nothing but fear in them.
He looked like he was scared to death.
Stupid?
Click!
He raised his hand and broke the man's neck neatly, wiped the blood off the corpse's face, rummaged through some inferior spirit stones, and left quietly.
…
"President, it is almost certain now that the guest named Hong Chen must have the means to repair the elixir!"
The third steward placed the high-level elixir in the center of the table with an excited tone.
The president said indifferently: "So?"
"Therefore, my subordinates suggest that we try our best to recruit him and join the Star Chamber of Commerce!"
"It's just a red pill, and I heard from you that he never shows his true face. He is a shady person and is not worth our efforts to recruit."
"President..."
The third steward tried to continue his persuasion, but was interrupted.
"Go down, don't bother me with this kind of thing until he has a higher value!"
The third steward choked up and left reluctantly.
He walked to the third floor stairs and said to his subordinate in black who had been waiting for a long time: "After the auction, go and investigate Hong Chen's identity."
"yes!"
He continued downstairs and came to the first floor.
The auction is about to begin, and many people are coming to participate. There are even people from other third-level forces coming, and it looks very lively.
Many people who were familiar with the Third Manager greeted him politely or respectfully after seeing him, but he greeted him perfunctorily and looked away from time to time.
"Third Steward, are you waiting for someone?" someone asked upon seeing this.
"A distinguished guest will be coming soon." The third steward replied cheerfully, and his attitude also aroused the curiosity of some people.
After a while, a dark figure came over. The third steward was delighted when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Excellency, you are here!"
Everyone around him was startled when he heard this title, and looked at the person with careful and inquiring eyes.
The identity of a person who can be called such by the Third Steward must not be simple.
Among them, Liu Minghua happened to see this scene. He turned his head and saw the third steward respectfully facing a man wrapped in a shabby black cloth. What was special was that this man was wearing a faceless black mask and looked very mysterious.
"Excuse me." The mysterious man's deep voice was heard by the people around him, and they were even more surprised. Even if his voice was low, it was obvious that this man was very young. It was obvious that a young man who could be treated like this by the third manager was not satisfied. It will be simple.
Liu Minghua's expression became a little strange.
I don't know why, whether it's the figure or the voice, there is an inexplicable feeling of familiarity...
It seems that I have seen this person before.
Before he could think more, he saw that the third steward had taken him away from the first floor. The rest of the people were staying on the first floor to chat. Seeing that it was almost time, they slowly walked towards the auction house on the third floor.
The third steward brought Qi Mingchen to a quiet private room. The private room was built at a high place and had a condescending feel. The soft seats and exquisite food all gave it a sense of luxury.
After he sat down, the third steward did not leave, but stood aside and handed him a notebook.
Qi Mingchen took it, originally thinking it was about auction items, but he didn't expect it to be a diagram of the power distribution and member welfare of the Star Chamber of Commerce.
"What is this?" he asked.
The third steward did not answer directly, but asked another question, "How is that orange elixir now?"
"No comment."
"In other words, when are you going to repair the elixir?" The third steward's eyes showed some urgency and extremely complicated emotions, completely out of touch with his identity as a businessman, and now he looked more like an ordinary old man.
