After Gu Yu handed the medicinal powder to Gu Qingheng, the chasing killers were reduced by half.
Seeing this, Gu Yu was surprised, not expecting his younger brother-in-law to be so capable.
With just one bottle of medicinal powder, he could reduce so many killers from chasing them. If he gave him a few more bottles, wouldn’t it be that no killer could catch up with them anymore!
After pondering for a while, Gu Yu took the initiative to ride his horse to Gu Qingheng’s side.
“Brother-in-law, what do you need me for!”
“Stop pretending, I know you’re pretending!”
When Gu Yu approached him, Gu Qingheng immediately pretended to know nothing, which made Gu Yu impatiently tap him on the head.
His younger brother-in-law was going to take the imperial examinations. If he didn’t even know the purpose of his own visit, he should just go back to Yang Family Village to raise pigs!
Although the number of killers had decreased a lot recently, a few days ago, Gu Yu was being intimate with Gu Mengyao when killers suddenly appeared and disrupted their mood.
Even though these killers were just offering themselves up, they ruined the sweet atmosphere, making Gu Yu so angry that he wanted to whip their corpses.
However, even if Gu Yu was angry, it was useless. The killers still had to be dealt with.
So, after seeing the remarkable effect of Gu Qingheng’s use of medicinal powder, Gu Yu immediately came to ask for more medicinal powder, hoping Gu Qingheng could deal with more of the killers following them.
“Ouch, brother-in-law, you’re using private punishment! I’m going to report you to my sister!”
“Stop fooling around with me, Qingheng. I’m asking you… if I give you more medicinal powder, how many killers can you deal with?”
After being tapped on the head by Gu Yu, Gu Qingheng immediately sidestepped his horse, daring not to let Gu Yu get close to him.
His brother-in-law always liked to tap his head!
However, Gu Yu did not continue to fool around but asked seriously.
There was no choice. It was related to his pleasant journey with his little wife, which made Gu Yu have to deal with these annoying flies.
He ignored them before because these killers did not bother them.
But now, it was different!
They dared to ruin the atmosphere. They must be tired of living.
“Brother-in-law, please don’t make things difficult for me! You know that to avoid harming ordinary people, we have racked our brains. Even if you give me a few more bottles of medicinal powder, I can’t deal with more killers.”
Seeing Gu Yu’s serious inquiry, Gu Qingheng stopped being playful. He just shook his head at Gu Yu’s request, indicating that he had already done his best.
If he didn’t have to worry about ordinary people being implicated, Gu Qingheng could naturally kill more killers.
Unfortunately, there were restrictions.
“You’re stupid! At this time, no matter how many ordinary people… Hmm, you’re doing a great job. Continue, don’t hurt the innocent.”
“Hehe, brother-in-law, I will! Look, my sister is waiting for you to continue. Hurry up!”
Seeing Gu Yu almost getting angry and then instantly turning into a little lamb, Gu Qingheng couldn’t help but chuckle, thinking that his sister was truly his brother-in-law’s nemesis!
Even though Gu Yu only said half of what he wanted to say, Gu Qingheng knew what Gu Yu meant.
That was, kill as much as you want, without worrying about ordinary people.
However, before he could finish speaking, Gu Mengyao discovered him.
To this, Gu Qingheng sighed with some emotion, thinking that his brother-in-law was truly a reincarnated devil!
If it weren’t for his sister’s restraints, he could have killed countless people!
Fortunately, such a thing would not happen… As long as his sister was with him, his brother-in-law would not become a bloodthirsty great devil.
However, although he couldn’t kill more people, he could still hinder their progress.
After all, in addition to the medicinal powder, Gu Qingheng also had some other powders.
These powders would not kill people, but they would add negative buffs, allowing those chasing behind to encounter obstacles and not be so relentless in their pursuit.
Thinking of this, Gu Qingheng remembered the treasure map.
They had already traveled for so long, why hadn’t they reached the treasure location yet!
If this continued, the other two parties would probably start making their move.
That’s right, in addition to the swarming killers, the elites of the Tianjue Organization and the death warriors from various forces were closely following behind.
These killers rushing forward also had the intention of forcing out the Gu family’s trump cards through a war of attrition.
However, these people were overthinking it.
These disorganized killers could not force out any trump cards at all.
A single bottle of medicinal powder could deal with them, not even enough to qualify Gu Yu to make a move.
“Yu, it’s only a few days away from the treasure location. You should be more careful!”
When Gu Yu rode his horse to Gu Mengyao’s side, Gu Mengyao hesitated for a moment before persuading him a few words, hoping Gu Yu would be honest for the next few days.
No matter how many killers came, they were not their opponents.
They were just a little annoying.
The most important thing now was to find the location marked on the treasure map and bring back the treasures found.
“Mengyao, these are just pastimes on the road. Don’t worry… Besides, I’m also preparing to make a move.”
“Make a move now?”
Upon hearing Gu Mengyao’s persuasion, Gu Yu smiled, then took her hand, and the two rode their horses leisurely forward.
When Gu Yu said he was going to make a move, Gu Mengyao was startled. She didn’t expect to make a move so soon.
She thought it would be a few more days.
“Yes, those behind can’t wait any longer. When Zha Zha went to investigate yesterday, the other party, seeing that the killers couldn’t force out our real strength, decided to make a move tomorrow.”
“Why did they decide so quickly? We are still a long distance from the treasure location.”
“Although the people from the Tianjue Organization know that the treasure map is in our hands, the death warriors sent by various forces in the capital do not. They have been following for a long time. If they don’t make a move, it might be too late… Also, it’s possible that the orders from the capital have come down, ordering them to act immediately.”
While speaking and analyzing, Gu Yu showed no signs of anger, as if he was talking about what he ate today, and did not take the battle the next day seriously.
In fact, Gu Yu truly did not take it seriously.
Especially, it was a battle full of loopholes.
“If it’s just the death warriors from the capital who want to make a move, perhaps we won’t have to fight back. The Tianjue Organization will take the initiative to deal with them… If they want to get the treasure on the treasure map, they naturally won’t allow anyone to disrupt it.”
“Yes, I think so too, but we can’t place our hopes on others. We also have to contribute.”
Listening to Gu Mengyao’s words, Gu Yu smiled and nodded, but he had no intention of sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight.
Even if the Tianjue Organization really dealt with the death warriors from the capital, they would still have to confront the Gu family afterward. Therefore, Gu Yu wanted to kill two birds with one stone.
It would be best to deal with both the Tianjue Organization and the death warriors, which would save a lot of trouble.
As for the scattered killers, Gu Yu did not take them seriously at all.
These people were not a threat.
