Chapter 315: May I ask if you are the heir of the savior?

In my view, he must have already been infected by the Black Tide Monster!

The middle-aged man stared at Gu Han with a wary expression, speaking coldly,

Otherwise, he's a disguise made by those Black Tide Monsters!

As soon as he said that, everyone's hearts jolted.

If this fellow has been infected by the Black Tide Monster but hasn't lost his sanity yet, that's still okay.

But they'd never heard that the Black Tide Monster could assume a human form while retaining sanity!

If that's the case, then relying solely on them probably wouldn't be a match for the opponent!

The several middle-aged men who had followed him inside, without hesitation, shielded the old man behind them.

Each held different farming tools or forged implements, surrounding Gu Han in the middle.

If you leave now, we can let bygones be bygones!

The leading middle-aged man wielded a large iron hammer, his build noticeably more robust than the others',

But if you refuse to leave, don't blame me for being impolite!

Gu Han sensed that this person's strength was clearly a notch above the other middle-aged men, even reaching Martial Ancestor level.

However, judging by their demeanor, the disparity in status doesn't seem to stem from strength differences.

This point differs from the outside world.

Facing the crowd's hostility, Gu Han merely gave a light shrug,

Now it's no longer a matter of whether I want to leave or not.

The middle-aged man furrowed his brow,

Are you trying to refuse a toast and drink the penalty?

Gu Han pointed toward the window outside,

You can take a look and see what's happening on the street now.

The middle-aged man's heart jolted; he hurried to the bedside and looked outward.

On the street, six or seven Black Tide Monsters had appeared at some point!

Moreover, these monsters were all in human form!

That middle-aged man merely glanced at them and his eyes flared with rage.

Because these people were, shockingly, all townspeople of Lu Chui Zhen!

Even many of them had chatted with them not long ago.

But now they have lost their sanity and are frenziedly battering the doors of other townspeople's homes!

One can imagine how horrific the fate awaiting those townspeople would be if these monsters broke into their homes!

You still dare to say these monsters weren't brought by you?

The old man's son suddenly turned his head, pointed at Gu Han, and snarled,

You've only been in town a short while, and these townspeople turned out like this—do you dare say it's unrelated to you?

Gu Han gave the middle-aged man a cold glance and sneered,

Since I entered Lu Chui Zhen, I've been under your surveillance the whole time.

Either you've been lax in your surveillance, or you can't see through my methods—you must accept one of these two.

Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned.

Either option seems to be their problem!

Stop giving me nonsense here!

The leading middle-aged man rushed forward in a few steps and reached out to grab Gu Han,

You've brought such a disaster to Lu Chui Zhen, and still want to change the subject?

Today, I'll use you as the first sacrifice to the flag!

However, his terrifying strength was easily flicked aside by Gu Han with a light touch,

If you're no match for the Black Tide Monster, taking out your anger on me? You really have the guts!

That middle-aged man staggered back from the flick, his pupils constricting sharply.

It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him; the anger in his heart instantly dissipated somewhat.

Just now, in his fury, he hadn't held back in the slightest.

Even the others couldn't possibly block his attack so easily, let alone deflect his hand.

This young man is probably no ordinary figure.

You can continue to confront me here if you wish.

Gu Han crossed his arms, showing no sign of urgency,

But the other people of Lu Chui Zhen probably can't wait that long for you.

As Gu Han's words fell, a heavy thumping sound suddenly came from outside the door.

It sounded like someone's door being smashed open.

Several middle-aged men's faces changed drastically; the leader gave the two a glance,

Keep an eye on him for me!

Having said that, middle-aged Wang Ye snorted coldly, led the others out the door, and began battling the Black Tide Monsters on the street.

Bang!

Bang!

The two remaining inside the room, hearing the continual impacts from the street, instinctively swallowed.

They wanted to go out and help, but they dared not leave Gu Han and the elder uncle alone in the room.

The old man naturally saw the worry in everyone's hearts; the crutch he leaned on kept trembling, and he said, vexed that iron cannot be made into steel,

"You bunch of muddle-headed fellows!"

"Just now, Wang Ye brought you guys, and none of you dared to lay a hand on the little brother!"

"Now just you two stay here; if the little brother really harbors ill intentions, do you think the two of you can stop him?"

The two exchanged a glance, both feeling a bit embarrassed.

Although unwilling to admit it, what the uncle said was indeed the truth.

"What are you two standing there for? Hurry up and help Wang Ye!"

"If Wang Ye also gets tainted with the Black Tide's aura, we probably won't live much longer."

The two dared not defy the uncle's order, so they hurriedly grabbed the fellows in their hands and rushed out.

The one lagging behind didn't forget to help the uncle close the door.

After they left, the old man turned toward Gu Han, threw away his crutch, and made as if to kneel before Gu Han.

Gu Han's heart startled, and he hurriedly supported the old man.

"Uncle, what are you doing?"

Gu Han's first reaction was to think that the old man felt guilty because the junior suspected Gu Han.

But no matter what, there's no need to make such a big ceremony, right?

The old man tightly gripped Gu Han's arms that were supporting him, and spoke in a pleading tone.

"Please, little brother, lend your aid and save my Lu Chui Zhen."

Gu Han's eyes flashed.

"Please forgive my junior's dullness; I don't understand what you mean, Uncle."

In his perception, the old man's aura was merely that of a Great Martial Master.

Perhaps when he was younger he could have reached Martial Ancestor, but with age his bodily functions declined.

He's probably no match for other Great Martial Masters.

The old man probably doesn't have any special tricks either.

Regardless of how brief this contact has been, how could one think he's capable of dealing with these Black Tide Monsters?

The old man gave a bitter smile.

"I'm old, my abilities aren't as good as yours youngsters, but having seen many people, I've gained some skill in judging people and things."

"When the Black Tide Monster was just mentioned, even Wang Ye and the others couldn't help but show some nervous expressions."

"But on the little brother's face, from beginning to end there was not a trace of fear, as if he didn't even regard the Black Tide Monster as worth noticing."

"If I'm not mistaken, the little brother must be a Savior Heir, right?"

Savior Heir?

Gu Han froze, thought for a moment, then asked back:

"What is a Savior Heir?"
