I Have Awakened The Deduction System

Chapter 285 Being Played



"So, you really want to be our enemy!" a cold smile appeared on Wu Ji forefather's face. He didn't wait for Liu Youcheng to finish before cutting him off.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Wait for me to finish." Liu Youcheng explained with a smile.

It was true that he had signed a blood contract with Gu Mingzhou, but he had done it for the jade key in his hand.

After all, there were only eight jade keys at that time. Even with the array brought by Island Master Shangguan, the possibility of opening the ruins was less than 50%.

Now that he had already entered, the jade key was naturally useless, so Liu Youcheng naturally would not stop him.

"He was also facing a calamity when I deduced in the River of the Dead just now." Liu Youcheng paused and then continued.

"You!" Gu Mingzhou directly interrupted He Youliang's words, hesitating to speak.

This sudden change was originally hard for him to accept.

But he didn't expect that the blood contract he thought was foolproof was actually something Liu Youcheng had planned to deceive him.

In fact, when Liu Youcheng had signed the blood contract with Gu Mingzhou, he had already planned to enter the remains and kill Gu Mingzhou.

As for agreeing to Gu Mingzhou's requests, he was so straightforward back then, probably because he already thought that Gu Mingzhou was going to die.

A sense of powerlessness overwhelmed Gu Mingzhou, who was filled with anger, and he could not speak at all.

"Who do you think you are? Do you think you have the right to sit on equal footing and bargain with us? To tell you the truth, even without the deduction of the River of the Dead, you won't be able to live for long!" faced with Gu Mingzhou's anger, He Youliang's face revealed a cold smile and disdain as he spoke eerily.

"Good, good, good!" Gu Mingzhou was so angry that he laughed and said repeatedly.

At this moment, he knew that there was no turning back.

Regardless of the River of the Dead incident, He Youliang and the others would not let him off.

After thinking about all this, Gu Mingzhou smiled indifferently.

"Everyone is here. Today, I, Gu Mingzhou, swear that as long as I don't die today, I'll definitely kill you all in the future! But do you think you can keep me here just like that?"

As he spoke, he extended his right hand, and a transparent jade slip the size of a palm flew out. It fell onto the endless light screen and instantly enveloped Gu Mingzhou.

"Not good. He's trying to escape!" He Youliang hurriedly reminded the others and rushed towards Gu Mingzhou at the same time.

Wei Lin and Liu Youcheng also rushed out with He Youliang.

Even Shangguan Fei attacked almost at the same time as Gu Mingzhou's words.

In an instant, true core strength shot out!

The light swirled, and countless rays of light attacked Gu Mingzhou.

"You can't escape!" Wu Ji sect's patriarch, who was the closest to Gu Mingzhou, also reacted instantly. He mobilized his surging true core strength and slapped Gu Mingzhou's head.

Just as the Wu Ji patriarch's fierce palm wind was about to hit Gu Mingzhou, Gu Mingzhou smiled faintly.

Gu Mingzhou disappeared in front of the Wu Ji sect's patriarch.

"Not good. It's an instant talisman!" Shangguan Fei's expression changed as he rushed toward Gu Mingzhou. He turned around and flew toward the light cocoon that imprisoned Jing Wudao.

Before Shangguan Fei could reach the light cocoon, there was a flash of light, and the light cocoon, which had been suspended in the air, disappeared instantly.

At the same time as the cocoon of light disappeared, the spears that were scattered on the ground also disappeared!

Shangguan Fei's attack was very fierce and fast. He arrived almost the moment the light cocoon disappeared.

The ferocious palm directly smacked the void.

The sharp wind from the palm caused the wind and clouds to retreat and the fog to disperse.

But Shangguan Fei was still one step too late.

There was no one left in the void, and the light cocoon disappeared.

"You brat, you actually used an instant talisman!" Wu Ji withdrew his hand and stared at the spot where the cocoon had disappeared.

Others might not know about the transparent jade slip that Gu Mingzhou had used before he disappeared, but patriarch Wu Ji was very clear about it.

After all, it was something given to him by Wu Ji patriarch.

At that time, he had only thought of bribing Gu Mingzhou, but he did not expect that he would lose the rice instead of the chicken.

Now, Gu Mingzhou had even used the instant talisman he had given him to escape from him. Naturally, he was furious!

"The instant talisman can teleport a thousand miles away in an instant. He's probably a thousand miles away from us now. If he escapes, I'm afraid there will be endless trouble in the future!" Guan Fei stood with his palms suspended in the air as he looked back at the crowd.

"I should have directly killed him just now. If I had, all this wouldn't have happened!" Liu Youcheng sighed.

"This is going to be troublesome. If the deduction of the River of the Dead is true, then we..." Wei Lin was at a loss as he recalled the calamity he had deduced.

"Even if that's true, I don't believe that a mere saint cultivator can kill us all in such a short time!" Wu Ji said in disdain.

"I don't believe it either. I've doubted the River of the Dead's prediction since the beginning. After all, everyone has only heard about it and no one has ever seen it for themselves. There's no need for everyone to take this matter to heart." Shangguan Fei said.

"I agree with Island Master Shangguan. What do you think?" He Youliang said in agreement.

"I don't have any objections either. It'd be best if we were together." Liu Youcheng said.

"I agree!"

"I also agree!"

Wei Lin and patriarch Wu Ji answered in succession.

Although the crowd agreed with Shangguan Fei on the surface, they were still a little afraid of Gu Mingzhou's escape.

After all, everything they had experienced in the deduction of the River of the Dead was so real.

As for whether it was true or not, they would more or less judge it in their hearts.

But now, due to face or other reasons, no one was willing to admit it.

A tacit understanding was perhaps what everyone was doing now.

"If that's the case, then let's go find the bridge of helplessness now. As long as we cross the bridge before that brat, we'll be able to catch a turtle in a jar and kill him in advance!" He Youliang said gloomily after everyone had agreed.

"That's right. As long as we can cross the bridge of helplessness in advance, we can block him in front. In any case, the bronze gate of the ruins has already been sealed. He only has a jade key on him, so it's absolutely impossible for him to open it." Shangguan Fei agreed.

"That may be true, but how do we know where the bridge of helplessness is? We can't just go in one direction and search along the river, right?" Liu Youcheng raised his doubts and asked.

The River of the Dead was 100 meters wide, and it was impossible to cross it. There was white mist all around, and visibility was extremely poor. They couldn't see the bridge at all. If he searched alone, he would probably need to spend a long time.

After all, no one knew how long the River of the Dead was.

If the direction they were looking for happened to be in the opposite direction of the bridge of helplessness, they would waste even more time.

"Haha, you don't have to worry about this problem. You only know that the bridge of helplessness is a bridge to cross people, but you don't know that it is actually the source of the River of the Dead." Shangguan Fei burst into laughter upon hearing this.
