Chapter 481: Isn't it convenient?
Gu Heng knew that this guy wasn't telling the truth at all.
While I was eavesdropping, the red-robed leader mentioned that the forces behind them seemed to have begun cooperating with the demon race!
After all, at such a critical time in the war, causing trouble in the rear of the Eastern Frontier would only benefit the demon race.
If the rear of the Eastern Frontier is filled with these so-called formations, and a large number of Blood Demons rush out and run rampant, the front lines will definitely be affected.
"You are truly a bunch of scum!"
Gu Heng grew angrier the more he thought about it.
Doing such a thing is obviously outrageous. How can there be traitors who act as dogs for the demon race? And yet, this Blood Soul Holy Sect seems to be doing just that.
The Blood Soul Holy Sect either received benefits from the demon race, or doing so was inherently advantageous to them.
But can something like this be resolved with just a few insults?
Gu Heng took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down.
Do not get angry.
In this situation, getting angry won't solve anything.
Clearly, this is a highly targeted conspiracy!
There must be more than just this kind of formation. The rear of the Eastern Frontier has not yet been ravaged by war, so it is not so chaotic, and it is not easy to be discovered when these guys are up to something.
After all, they are not demons.
They are all human beings.
Then, there must be quite a few of these formations that breed monsters. He can't solve this problem! This needs to be handled by the Eastern Frontier Alliance.
Gu Heng still needed to think about how to get the message out. He definitely couldn't go; even if he did, no one would necessarily believe a stranger like him.
But he immediately came up with a solution.
Why not just make a big commotion here and attract the cultivators?
"last question."
"What is the connection between Blood Shadow Tower and your Blood Soul Holy Sect?"
Gu Heng coldly glanced at the other men in red robes.
He always felt that there was some unclear connection between the two forces. It was just a gut feeling, but there was no problem in asking more questions.
Seeing yet another person subjected to the boiling cauldron torture, these guys were so terrified they were practically begging for mercy, practically kneeling at Gu Heng's feet. "The Blood Shadow Tower is a faction under the Blood Soul Holy Sect, specializing in assassinations. They have a total of..."
Sure enough, a man in red robes immediately spoke up, eager to spill everything he knew so that he wouldn't die such a miserable death.
But Gu Heng didn't listen to anything else.
Because he had already heard the most crucial information.
Blood Shadow Tower is an assassination organization under the Blood Soul Holy Sect. In other words, the power behind Blood Shadow Tower is the Blood Soul Holy Sect!
Gu Heng silently opened the task interface and looked at the temporary task.
"The one who slipped through the net: uncover the conspiracy behind the Blood Shadow Tower and use this opportunity to obtain key information for the mission 'Mysterious Heaven Forbidden Zone'!"
This task has no reward; the key information itself is the reward. Therefore, Blood Shadow Tower is just a small fry; the real big fish is the Blood Soul Holy Sect.
However, the Blood Soul Holy Sect's conspiracy...
Their conspiracy seems to be more complex than it appears.
The fact that this task did not show as completed means that I only stumbled upon one of the Blood Soul Holy Sect's conspiracies by chance.
Perhaps it's not even the most crucial, grand conspiracy.
Then we need to continue the investigation.
Fortunately, I already know about the connection between the Blood Soul Holy Sect and the Blood Shadow Tower, and the system mission also clearly states that this faction is problematic!
Since there's a problem, it certainly won't stand up to scrutiny.
But it's still a bit difficult to find out on your own.
The Blood Soul Holy Sect is in the Western Regions, and if he wanted to go there, the journey would be quite long... Besides, he couldn't just leave for ten days or half a month. Qin Yiyao went to the Central Regions; she might need his help someday.
As his master, Gu Heng should prioritize her over the system's mission. Ideally, he could balance both, but since that wasn't possible...
He couldn't personally investigate what was going on with the Blood Soul Holy Sect.
Furthermore.
He wanted to deal with his own cultivation issues first.
However, Gu Heng also knew who could help him.
Doesn't that old man have a whole bunch of old guys with particularly strange methods?
Let them do it. I have plenty of money and spirit stones, and I can afford to pay whatever reward they ask for!
But Old Gu is no longer in Yunling City. With the arrival of the demon race, everyone scattered, and Gu Heng wasn't entirely sure where Old Gu was now. For a moment…
Gu Heng scratched his head in frustration.
We'll have to deal with that later; we'll just have to take it one step at a time.
"S-Sir?"
Seeing that Gu Heng had finished listening to his information but had fallen into a strange deep thought, the man in the red robe felt uneasy.
He worried that he might have said something that offended the man in front of him, making him angry.
Don’t do that kind of thing!
Gu Heng frowned.
"Alright, it's time for you all to die."
He said coldly.
Then, Gu Heng kicked each of them into the blood pool.
I already know everything I want to know, but letting them go is definitely out of the question. Releasing a tiger back into the mountains would be tantamount to bringing disaster to others, not to mention these treacherous people.
And ah.
Gu Heng didn't intentionally want to see these guys die a horrible death.
He just didn't want to waste the effort of giving them a quick death one by one.
So, wouldn't it be convenient to just kick them into the pool of blood and scald them to death?
Just think of it as going to Haidilao for hot pot.
