Chapter 13224 Duanmu Family
Warriors and businessmen from all over gathered here, exchanging their martial arts experiences and rare treasures, making the whole city full of vitality.
Ling Xiao and Long Chen shuttled among the bustling crowds, feeling the unique charm of this city. From time to time, they stopped in front of a certain stall, carefully examining the various weapons and elixirs. Occasionally, they would chat with the stall owner, asking for news and rumors about the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery.
"Where is the teleportation array located?" After wandering around the city for a while, Ling Xiao didn't find the teleportation array. He suddenly realized that he had missed this vital information. He frowned slightly and looked around for possible clues. clue.
"Duanmu Family!" Long Chen's voice sounded at the right time, with a bit of confidence and calmness. He smiled softly and explained.
"Before coming to Xihuang City, I have done a detailed investigation. The only teleportation array in this city is firmly controlled by the Duanmu family. They not only use it to maintain the connection between Xihuang and the outside world, but also use it as a A means to make huge profits. As the first family in Xihuang, the Duanmu family is so powerful that almost no one can match it except Xihuang Temple."
Hearing this, Ling Xiao nodded, a hint of understanding flashing in his eyes. He didn't hesitate too much, thinking to himself: he had nothing to do with the Duanmu family, and had never even met, so there shouldn't be any trouble. So, he said simply: "In that case, let's go straight to Duanmu's house."
When he said this, Ling Xiao's heart was filled with curiosity and expectation for the unknown. He didn't know that the Duanmu family had actually already formed an indissoluble bond with him - but this "fate" was In a way that he didn't expect at all.
If he could predict the future and knew that the Duanmu family had secretly sent people to the East China Sea in an attempt to seize the Demon Lord Black Sky Sword from him, perhaps his attitude would be completely different and he would be more alert and vigilant.
"Brother, you must be on guard against others." Long Chen's brows were furrowed, with a hint of worry and vigilance in his tone.
His gaze was deep, as if he could penetrate layers of fog and look directly at the crisis hidden in the dark.
"The Duanmu Family, as the number one family in the Western Wasteland, has ambitions and greed that we can't easily imagine. They must have also coveted your treasure - the legendary Demon Lord Black Sky Sword for a long time. . In addition, those people who are looming and always following us along the way may not have simple intentions. "
Long Chen paused for a moment, and his expression became more solemn:
"The reason why they haven't taken action is probably because they can't figure out my strength and don't dare to act rashly. But what I can be sure of is that they will definitely find a suitable opportunity to launch a surprise attack on us before we enter the Tomb of Ten Thousand Demons. . After all, the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery is full of dangers, and even they dare not set foot there easily. The risk is too great."
When Ling Xiao heard this, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He waved his hand gently, his tone full of calmness and confidence:
"It doesn't matter, water will come to cover us, and soldiers will come to stop us. Some things will always happen, and you can't hide from them. There is no use in being afraid. Since we have chosen this path of martial arts, we are destined to fight with all kinds of things. Challenges and dangers are our companions. As long as we have enough strength and wisdom, we can overcome dangers and move forward no matter what kind of enemies we face.”
As he spoke, Ling Xiao's eyes became firm and profound, as if he had seen the challenges and opportunities hidden in the unknown.
He gently patted Long Chen's shoulder, with a bit of encouragement and comfort in his tone: "Don't worry, Long Chen. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will fight side by side with you and face it together. As long as our brothers work together, It is so powerful that nothing can stop us from moving forward.”
From the beginning to now, the reason why the opponent has not made a move may be because he is secretly observing, waiting for the best time to see if he still has any hidden cards!
And now, as they are about to step onto the edge of the Ten Thousand Demons Cemetery, the long-suppressed aura is getting stronger, and the other party is obviously unwilling to wait any longer!
This unwillingness to wait is undoubtedly a sign of imminent action! Ling Xiao was secretly vigilant. He could feel that there was a tense atmosphere in the air that was about to come.
Once the other party takes action, it must have been carefully planned and prepared. After all, judging from various previous signs, he has exposed a lot of strength and methods. The other party should already have a pretty clear idea of his and Long Chen's strength. cognition.
For a moment, Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel that his situation was getting more subtle and worse. He knew very well that in this martial arts world where the strong were respected, a little carelessness could lead to catastrophe. However, even in the face of such a severe situation, there was no flinch or fear in his eyes.
He took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and thought to himself: But so what? He has also encountered worse situations than this and survived them all. What's more, he also has some trump cards that those who are spying in secret don't know.
These trump cards may be the key to him turning the situation around and turning defeat into victory.
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao's lips couldn't help but evoke an indifferent smile. He lightly patted Long Chen's shoulder, indicating that he shouldn't be too nervous, and then looked firmly into the distance, as if he had already seen the challenges and opportunities hidden in the unknown.
At this moment, he seemed ready to meet all challenges. No matter how difficult the road ahead was, he would move forward fearlessly.
The two walked side by side, with steady steps, and came to the magnificent gate of the Duanmu family. This mansion, even as a branch of the Duanmu family, still showed extraordinary majesty and solemnity.
The towering gatehouse, carved beams and painted rafters, magnificent and magnificent, seemed to contain endless power and glory in every inch.
The Duanmu family, a behemoth that almost controlled the entire Western Wasteland, had a wide range of power and deep influence, which everyone knew. Their tentacles had long been deeply rooted in every corner of the Western Wasteland. Whether it was a prosperous city or a desolate frontier, the presence of the Duanmu family could be felt.
Although this branch in the Western Wasteland City could not be compared with the main branch, its strength should not be underestimated. Many masters and elites gathered here, and it was one of the important strongholds of the Duanmu family in the Western Wasteland City.
The gatekeepers were dressed in uniform, with solemn expressions and sharp eyes. When they saw Ling Xiao and Long Chen, they did not stop them at all, but instead led them into the Duanmu family with great respect.
