Chapter 2042

"Boss, it's just a minor injury. It's not a big deal," said the Clay Bodhisattva.

He was a little worried. Daoist arts that could turn one's body into mud were rare. If these people wanted to investigate his identity, he wouldn't be able to hide it for long.

But compared to his identity as a former bandit, keeping his boss's secret was more valuable.

In the distance, the real Gu Chen heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Ren Yin was safe and the Clay Bodhisattva was fine.

He looked in the direction of Medusa again, only to find that she had disappeared. The two maids were gone as well. Even the Grand Elder he had tried to assassinate was nowhere to be seen.

"Where is she?"

Gu Chen's eyes flashed. He ignored Ren Yin and the others and followed the chaotic flow of people out of the venue, searching for Medusa.

Zhang Hao and the others did not leave the venue. The Clay Bodhisattva took out a healing pill and swallowed it. Zhang Hao examined Bao Yu in his hand, thinking about something.

"Brother Zhang, Brother Bao clearly didn't look right just now. Perhaps the assassination was not his intention," Jiang Beidou explained to Zhang Hao.

He was worried that Bao Yu would kill Bao Yu, but he was also worried that Bao Yu would vent his anger on him.

Given Bao Yu's background, no faction in the Second Mountain and Sea dared to kill him. But a true disciple of the Supreme Qi Palace was an exception!

Zhang Hao had just spoken, and Bao Yu had killed him. This was equivalent to a public slap in the face. He could imagine how unhappy Zhang Hao would be.

"I'm not a fool. If he had acted alone, it could be said that he was irrational. But there was clearly more than one person who went crazy. Someone must be behind this," replied Zhang Hao coldly.

Jiang Beidou heaved a sigh of relief.

"The auction of the Ghost Parade begins tomorrow. What is the hidden person trying to do by choosing to disrupt the banquet at such a critical juncture?"

Zhou Tai sighed. He had never imagined that someone would attack the banquet.

"No matter what this person is trying to do, he's definitely a madman," said Sheng Kuafu.

Sheng Kuafu said, and everyone nodded in agreement.

On the surface, the auction was organized by the Ghost Parade, but there were many factions behind it. The scope was so vast that they could not even imagine it.

Even Zhang Hao, a true disciple of the Supreme Qi Palace, would not act recklessly in Binhai City. That was because he might infringe on the interests of some hidden major figure of the Dao World!

Thus, those who dared to attack the banquet were definitely lunatics. They clearly wanted to become enemies with the entire world!

"Just now, Madam Du was also attacked. If I'm not wrong, this is purely revenge."

Zhang Hao speculated. Attacking the banquet would offend a lot of forces. He couldn't think of any benefits this could bring, so the only possibility was revenge.

Since the banquet was ruined, the biggest loss would be Ghost Parade. In addition, Mrs. Du was also attacked, so it was very likely that the person in the dark was targeting her and Ghost Parade!

"Since they're here for revenge, it has nothing to do with us. Let's just watch the show," Sheng Kuafu said with a smile.

"Although there was some commotion, not many people died. The strength of the person in the dark is only so-so. I'm afraid he will be caught very soon." Jiang Beidou said in disdain.

"Bao Yu was fine before he left, but he was suddenly bewitched. This means that the person controlling him has the ability to threaten us. Where did you get the confidence to think that he is nothing special? Perhaps the next person to be bewitched will be you, "Sheng Kuafu retorted sarcastically.

"Hmph, there is more than one Great Sage presiding over Binhai City. There might even be Dao Ancestors secretly watching everything. This person's first attack can be said to be unexpected. Do you think he has the ability to do it a second time?"

Jiang Beidou said angrily. The more he looked at Sheng Kuafu, the more he disliked him.

Sheng Kuafu smiled and didn't say anything. Although he hated Jiang Beidou, he knew that he was right.

If the person or faction that attacked the banquet tonight was smart enough, they should have fled Binhai City as soon as possible. If they attacked again, they would definitely die.

"Brother Chen, although Bao Yu might have a reason for sneak attacking you, it was ultimately his fault. Therefore, I'll leave him to you to deal with," Zhang Hao said to Ninja Hidden.

Zhang Hao looked at Ninja Hidden and said. He casually tossed the ball of light with Bao Yu sealed inside it towards Ninja Hidden.

"Alright."

Ninja Hidden thought about it and accepted it.

This was actually a hot potato. Bao Yu had fallen into his hands in front of everyone, and he couldn't kill him directly.

However, Bao Yu was clearly under someone's control. Boss might be interested in the person who had secretly attacked, so he kept him alive so that Boss could interrogate him later.

When Jiang Beidou saw that Bao Yu had fallen into Chen Yunfei's hands, he wanted to stop him, but after some thought, he gave up.

This was Zhang Hao's decision. It was not worth it for him to refute him. Bao Yu's safety should be left to the Dragontaming Sect to worry about. He had already done his best by informing them.

On the deck, the guests who had just escaped from the venue were in chaos.

The controlled cultivators didn't even have time to start a massacre before they were suppressed by Sword Tower and the Ghost Parade.

A small number of people died in vain. Most of them were followers and guards. The greatest loss was the death of an Elder of the Ghost Parade.

Some of the controlled cultivators were killed on the spot. Those who didn't die were quickly restrained and forced to kneel on the deck.

Although these people were captured, they didn't panic at all, nor did they wake up. They kept laughing, and their laughter made people shudder.

When Gu Chen found Medusa, she was completely fine. It was as if she hadn't been stabbed by the dagger.

The Elder of the Ghost Parade who had attacked her earlier was also nowhere to be seen, and one of her maidservants was missing.

Gu Chen was a little moved. It would be good if the remaining maidservant was gone.

"Madam Medusa, this happened before the auction even started. How can we be at ease?"

"Nothing like this happened when the Fierce Demon Saint was around. As expected, a woman can't get things done!"

After the situation was under control, some of the big shots in the underworld vented their dissatisfaction and questioned Medusa's ability to handle matters.

"Tonight was just an accident. Everyone, don't worry. There won't be any problems with the security of the auction."

Medusa smiled. She wasn't angry at the people's doubts at all.

"Humph, it's easy for you to say. Have you found out who is playing tricks in the dark? How can we be at ease if we can't find the culprit? "

"That's right. If we can't find the culprit, how can we auction our treasures without worry?"

Many big shots were pressuring her. Medusa hadn't been in charge of the Ghost Parade for a long time, and they didn't trust each other enough. Now, this incident happened.

"The culprit might still be on the ship!"

Before Medusa could speak, a cold voice suddenly sounded. Everyone couldn't help but look over.

It was a female disciple of the Sword Tower. She was slightly injured in the chaos just now, and her pretty face was a little pale.

Gu Chen, who was in the crowd, frowned. It was Chu Meixin.

There were so many big shots here, and she was just a disciple of the Sword Tower. Why did she speak up? Wasn't she afraid of getting into trouble?
