Chapter 49 Trouble! Solved!
Su Hao stopped what he was doing, his eyes turning icy cold.
It seems trouble is brewing.
He just hadn't expected the Nestorian Christians to arrive so quickly.
bang bang bang! ! !
The knocking started again, this time with increasing force, shaking the mud walls on both sides and causing dust to fall.
Su Hao remained expressionless, picked up his long sword, went to the door, and opened it.
Squeak!
The wooden door creaked as it turned, and the noise at the doorway ceased.
"What's the matter?"
Su Hao stood at the doorway, looking down at the five or six men holding torches below, his tone indifferent.
These men were all strong and muscular, with broad shoulders and thick waists. The leader was particularly dark and burly, resembling a black bear.
Most importantly, they were all wearing white robes of the Church of Christ, with some runes and a large character "景" printed on them!
"Brother, do you know if you've seen three people around here wearing my church's robes? One is fat, one is short, and one is tall and thin?"
The burly man at the head of the group spoke in a low voice, slightly cupping his hands in a fist salute, but his eyes were fixed on Su Hao's face.
"I didn't see it. Is there anything else?"
Su Hao said expressionlessly.
"without…"
Upon hearing this, Su Hao reached out to close the door, but the burly man stepped forward and blocked the door with his hand.
"Wait... I have something else to ask you..."
"Let go!" Su Hao shouted coldly.
"Where did the lime and bloodstains get in front of your door? Don't think I won't know just because you cleaned the floor; you must have done it!"
The deep, gruff voice suddenly reached out and grabbed at Su Hao's neck.
Judging from his movements and strength, he had developed a certain level of skill and technique, clearly indicating that he was a trained practitioner.
Su Hao was prepared and threw a punch as well. He used the Yue Shan Fist, the Yue Qi Shi, and his arm was filled with blood and qi. The punch collided with the palm of the burly man!
boom!
A dull sound, like stones colliding, rang out. Su Hao took a step back and firmly planted himself in a horse stance using the Yue Shan Fist stance.
In contrast, the burly man staggered back three steps before finally managing to regain his footing.
The burly men who had been following him were also startled and quickly stepped forward to help him up.
The way everyone looked at Su Hao now held a hint of apprehension and fear.
I never expected this kid to be such a good fighter!
"What do you mean, sir!?"
Su Hao stepped out the door, his hand gripping the hilt of the long sword at his waist, his eyes icy cold.
After their previous exchange, he had a general idea of his opponent's strength.
It should only be the outer layer of the stone.
Moreover, it was a relatively low-level one, like the stone skin level he achieved by cultivating the Crimson Blood Palm.
This also surprised him somewhat, after all, the other party was a member of the Zhongjing Sect, and martial artists had begun to emerge among these followers.
The burly, dark-skinned man's face was grim. He broke free from the others' support and asked coldly, "Did you kill my men?"
"I don't know what you're talking about, but if you're going to cause trouble, I'm ready to play along!"
Su Hao stared directly at his opponent, showing no fear whatsoever.
If he weren't worried that there might be other Nestorian experts hiding nearby, he would have made a move right now.
There's no need for so much nonsense.
Seeing Su Hao's resolute attitude, the burly man's eyes darkened with uncertainty.
After a long while, he snorted coldly, then waved his hand and led the Nestorian Church members away, quickly disappearing into the darkness.
Su Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, and only closed the door again after these people had completely left his sight.
"Old Guo, looks like you got the short end of the stick? Was that guy really that strong?"
A few hundred meters from Su Hao's residence, in a small courtyard, the burly man had just entered the gate when the two men waiting inside saw his very unpleasant expression.
He immediately asked.
"Damn it! I didn't expect that kid to be a stone skin (a type of martial arts practitioner), and he looks like he's from the Yueshan Boxing Gym. I just exchanged a move with him, and he used Yueshan Boxing!"
After the burly, dark-skinned man sat down, he opened his large, thick palms.
A bluish-purple mark appeared on the palm of his hand.
He had clearly suffered in the previous battle.
"Oh? Even a Stone Skin Realm cultivator can injure you like this with a single punch?"
One of the two men, a bald, shirtless man with large brass rings hanging from both ears, exclaimed in surprise.
"That guy is strange. He's clearly not very old, but his energy and blood are much stronger than others. I was a bit careless with him just now, which is why I fell for his attack..."
The burly, dark-skinned man was somewhat annoyed and resentful.
Although he had been at a disadvantage in the previous encounter, he believed that he had underestimated his opponent, which was why the opponent was prepared and ready to launch a counterattack.
Otherwise, if it really came down to a face-to-face fight, he was still confident he could take down his opponent!
"You might not be able to... Don't forget that before, a leader from another branch was tracking a traitor there, and then he just vanished into thin air, never to be seen again. I suspect it might have been that kid who did it..."
A middle-aged man with a large patch of long, dark hair on his right cheek shook his head.
They hid in this Rat Alley, trying their best to evade the government's investigation, so they had some idea of who lived in the alley, whether they were ordinary people or martial artists.
One of the leaders of the outer city branch of the Nestorian Church once came to this Rat Alley when he used the Fragrance-Gathering Insects to track down traitors.
However, it later disappeared from this area.
And in this entire area, the only person known to practice martial arts is that kid.
They only found out this after testing the waters tonight.
"I heard that the branch leader is at the Iron Mirror level. Do you guys think that kid has the strength of an Iron Mirror?"
The burly, dark-skinned man frowned.
It wasn't that he was competitive, but if that kid had the strength of the Iron Mirror, he wouldn't be able to come back now.
"Killing someone isn't just about using your fists..."
The blue-faced man shook his head, not continuing the topic. "Anyway, the only confirmed suspect right now is that kid. We'll just send the message to the outer city headquarters and have them send a few more experts. Then they'll be at our mercy!"
Pfft!
Just as the blue-faced man finished speaking, a whooshing sound suddenly came from the air!
The black arrow, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, pierced the blue-faced man's skull.
"Enemy attack!"
The burly man's pupils constricted sharply, and he leaped up like a startled rabbit, roaring angrily.
Whoosh!
Two clanging sounds of machinery turning came from the shadows, followed by two arrows shooting out, one aimed at the burly man's arm and the other at his hands.
"Get out here!"
At this moment, another shirtless bald man also reacted. He picked up the hundred-pound stone bench he was sitting on and smashed it hard in the direction from which the arrow came!
Boom!
The boulder crashed into the wall, causing the entire wall to collapse with a roar, kicking up a cloud of yellow dust.
However, before the two burly men could even catch their breath, a figure darted out from the dust and rapidly approached them.
"It's you!?"
The burly man's pupils constricted as he stared at the suddenly appearing figure, letting out a startled cry!
