Chapter 406

"Brother Xu, I see you haven't joined any organization. How about coming to my Sharp Wind Hall? The two of us will be on equal footing, and there will surely be achievements in the future," Cao Rong suddenly said.

Lu Ren left the Sharp Wind Hall, and Yun Feng and Gu Haoming died one after another. Now he has no one to use in the Sharp Wind Hall, and there is already a trend of being unable to suppress it. Many people don't want to pay membership fees after reaching Gang Qi Major Success, and he urgently needs a potential expert to join.

Xu Yang, as a Ten Elites genius, is undoubtedly the best candidate. If Xu Yang joins, those who want to rebel will definitely not dare to have other intentions.

"Become brothers who live and die together with you?" Xu Yang smiled.

Cao Rong nodded: "If Brother Xu is willing, naturally you will be my Cao Rong's life-and-death brother. When the three-year term expires, my uncle Cao Jin will help us operate and worship a good master."

"I don't dare to become your life-and-death brother. Those who became your life-and-death brothers in the past have now become the objects of your exploitation and oppression," Xu Yang's tone was sarcastic.

Cao Rong's face showed embarrassment, followed by sincerity: "Brother Xu is naturally different from them. When you come, it will be you and me exploiting them together. I am truly sincere to Brother Xu."

"Since it is sincere, why did you help Xiao Hua kill me before?"

Xu Yang's tone was very light, but it sounded like a thunderclap in Cao Rong's ears, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink.

He knows everything—he knows I helped Xiao Hua kill him, but he has been pretending to be friendly with me. I was completely wrong; I actually wanted to be friends with him.

Subconsciously, Cao Rong wanted to distance himself from Xu Yang, but everything was already too late.

Just as the thought of distancing himself from Xu Yang rose in his heart, Xu Yang's large hand had already slammed into his chest like a bolt of lightning.

"Crack!"

Cao Rong was struck as if by a hammer, his chest collapsed on the spot, he vomited blood and flew backward, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood in mid-air, his limbs twitching unconsciously.

Xu Yang chased after him, grabbed the Ten-Complete Great Replenishment Pills from Cao Rong's arms, and smashed him into the ground with one hand.

"Boom!"

The ground shook, the soil burst, and Cao Rong's entire body was embedded in the soil, already breathing more than he was taking in, his face full of pain and fear.

"You actually already reached Marrow Cleansing..."

He finished speaking with his last strength, his head tilted, and he lost his breath directly.

Xu Yang took away the silver notes and contribution points on his body, then carried the corpse into the forest and disappeared.

"Someone was robbed and killed. Is it Xu Yang and Cao Rong?"

After a while, several figures walked over; it was Shen Liang, An Ping, and the other four.

Looking at the undried blood stains and the human-shaped crater on the ground, Tang Xiao couldn't help but look solemn.

"There are no signs of fighting around; it looks like he was killed in one move," Guo Huai said in a deep voice.

In a battle between people of the same level, such a crushing battle would not occur.

"Perhaps others were robbed and killed. Xu Yang and Cao Rong are both Gang Qi Major Success. Could it be that a Marrow Cleansing martial artist has targeted them?" An Ping shook his head, feeling that it was unlikely that Xu Yang and Cao Rong were the ones who had the accident.

If a Marrow Cleansing martial artist wants to rob and kill, they would go to kill those who auctioned good things; how could they look down on Xu Yang and Cao Rong?

"Let's go quickly! I feel somewhat uneasy," Shen Liang urged.

His sense of crisis has always been very accurate, and he has escaped death many times because of it.

"Coward, the four of us join forces; what is there to be afraid of? If some blind thief jumps out, it's just right to send us money," An Ping mocked.

Tang Xiao said: "If he weren't a coward, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to greet Xu Yang before. Everyone doesn't like Xu Yang, but he still thinks about being friends with Xu Yang. Is it necessary..."

The word "is it" got stuck in his throat and could never be spoken again.

An Ping and the others only felt golden light flashing before their eyes, blood splashing, and a blood hole the size of a finger appeared on Tang Xiao's forehead, with blood mixed with white brain matter constantly bubbling out.

Shuddering all over, Tang Xiao's eyes widened, and his body fell straight backward.

"Ah..."

An Ping, who was splashed with blood on his face, was scared out of his wits and let out a scream. The person who was laughing and talking a moment ago had actually died just like that.

Shen Liang's face was also pale, his soul scared away. They didn't listen when he said to go quickly, and now it was over. They didn't even see a shadow and Tang Xiao was killed; it must be a Marrow Cleansing expert.

"I am Guo Huai of the Guo family. May I ask which path's friend is working here?"

Guo Huai was still calm, cupping his hands toward the surroundings and reporting his background.

Although the Guo family is not a top family in Qingyang City, the family also has two Marrow Cleansing martial artists, and ordinary people will give face.

Footsteps sounded, and a tall figure wearing a mask walked out from the forest next to them.

The three pupils contracted suddenly. Although this person was wearing a mask, the clothes were clearly the same set Xu Yang had just worn, and the body shape, height, and even hairstyle were exactly the same as Xu Yang's.

"Boom!"

The next moment, dust flew, and the masked man was like a galloping thunder; his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and the Marrow Cleansing aura spread like a tide.

"Marrow Cleansing martial artist!"

"Run quickly!"

Too late to study whether this person was Xu Yang, An Ping and Guo Huai were scared out of their wits and fled frantically. ===== CHAPTER 407 =====
