Chapter 5744 City of Gold

"Hmm...it sounds like he does have some skills, but I don't know if he really relied on his own abilities."

After hearing about the deeds of the patriarch of the Jin clan, Zhang Yifeng groaned for a moment.

"Mr. Zhang is worried that he, like Shuiche, has been bewitched by the evil power of the demon god and has the power to change his own destiny?"

Shui Xuan pursed her lips and immediately guessed what Zhang Yifeng was worried about.

"Let's take it one step at a time. If the situation really requires action, you should bring your people back to the Shui clan as soon as possible."

Zhang Yifeng nodded slightly and gave instructions to Shui Xuan.

Shui Xuan's eyes moved slightly when he heard this, but he still nodded in agreement.

Although he wanted to help Zhang Yifeng, if it really came to the point where he had no choice, he would have no choice but to take his people away.

Otherwise, with just a few of them, they wouldn't be able to cause any trouble within the Jin clan.

Time passed by bit by bit, and after a while, the carriage finally stopped.

Zhang Yifeng, who was still in the carriage, heard the shouting coming from the front of the carriage.

"Who are you, and what is your business in the Jin clan?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yifeng knew that he had arrived at the jurisdiction of the Jin clan.

"Mr. Zhang, please wait here for a moment. I will go and communicate with them."

Shui Xuan stood up and walked down from the carriage, and began to negotiate with the Jin clan guards who were blocking the road.

After a while, Zhang Yifeng heard footsteps approaching and the door of the carriage was pulled open.

What came into view was a young man wrapped in iron armor, looking him up and down with unfriendly eyes.

"Who is this guy? He doesn't look like a member of your Shui clan."

The young man frowned and turned back, questioning Shui Xuan.

Judging from his tone, it seemed that he did not take Shui Xuan, the young patriarch of the Shui clan, seriously at all.

Shui Xuan could naturally hear the difference in his tone, but in order to escort Zhang Yifeng into the Jin clan, he still suppressed his anger.

"This is a guest from our Shui clan. Although your Jin clan is very sensitive to outsiders, at least there has been a lot of trade between our two clans."

"Do you think that I, the young patriarch of my clan, would bring only a dozen guards to harm your Jin clan?"

Shui Xuan spoke in a deep voice, staring at the young man in iron armor and asked.

Hearing this, the young man looked thoughtful, and the coldness on his face gradually faded.

"We in the Jin clan will naturally not embarrass our friends. Please continue to move forward."

"Remember, our people will always be watching you, don't try to do anything tricky."

The armored young man finally chose to let him go, but he still looked up and warned Zhang Yifeng.

Zhang Yifeng didn't have any intention of replying to this, but just looked at him quietly.

"Humph!"

The young man in iron armor snorted coldly and turned away.

Shui Xuan also stepped into the carriage with a sullen face and asked the accompanying guards to head towards the Jin clan's city again.

After traveling for an unknown amount of time, the carriage stopped again. Shui Xuan opened the side window and looked out.

"Mr. Zhang, we are here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shui Xuan pushed open the door of the carriage and walked down first.

Hearing the voice, Zhang Yifeng slowly stood up and followed Shui Xuan out of the carriage.

Looking up, Zhang Yifeng couldn't help but be a little stunned when he saw the magnificent city in front of him.

Compared with the city in front of them, the city where the Shui clan lives can probably be considered a small city at best.

The Jin clan's city wall was three meters high, with patrol teams coming and going from time to time, all wearing iron armor.

The outer perimeter of the city wall was covered with a thick layer of iron sheet.

If someone really attacks, it will be a problem to break through the city wall.

In this world where the lifestyle is still very close to ancient times, it is really eye-opening to see a city of this scale.

"Young Patriarch, the Jin clan actually has such abundant iron resources?"

Zhang Yifeng knew that the resources of various races in this world were scarce. Even the city walls of the Shui clan were simply made of rocks and soil.

The city of the Jin clan in front of us is wrapped in thick iron sheets, which shows how wealthy they are.

"That's right. In fact, the trade between the various tribes and the Jin Clan is mainly for obtaining the iron resources in their hands."

"There is an underground mine in the Jin clan's city, which can mine a large amount of iron ore for smelting metals."

Shui Xuan sighed and felt a little embarrassed looking at the huge city in front of him.

"Hmm... But it seems that they don't intend to be the overlord of this continent. They just want to live in peace in a corner."

Zhang Yifeng groaned for a moment, then followed the convoy towards the gate of the huge city.

Although the city gate of the Jin clan was open, no people were entering or leaving.

However, there were quite a few guards stationed at the city gate, as many as dozens of them.

At this moment, their eyes were fixed on Zhang Yifeng and others, with their hands on the weapons at their waists.

"I am Shui Xuan, the young patriarch of the Shui clan. I have come here to discuss trade with the patriarch Jin Buhuan."

Shui Xuan calmed himself down, walked forward and spoke to the guards in a serious voice.

After hearing this, the guards put away their vigilant looks.

"Please come in."

The middle-aged man in the lead, wearing iron armor and a golden badge on his chest, raised his hand to signal the tribesmen behind him to calm down, and then spoke in a calm voice.

Immediately, the guards guarding the city gate dispersed to make a path for Zhang Yifeng and others.

Shui Xuan nodded, and then led Zhang Yifeng into the city.

When entering the city, Zhang Yifeng noticed that the Jin clan's city actually had an outer city.

If he previously only thought that the Jin family was very vigilant, now he is more certain of how wary the Jin family is of outsiders.

If foreign enemies broke into the city, I'm afraid the first thing they would be greeted by would be the countless guards on the outer city walls.

Zhang Yifeng's keen perception reminded him all the time that there were countless pairs of eyes on the city wall secretly watching them.

If they show any sign of being amiss, they will attack immediately.

However, Zhang Yifeng currently has no intention of falling out with these people from the Jin clan, and he follows Shui Xuan and the others safely through this section of the outer city.

As the gate of the inner city was opened, a hot and dry air blew in.

Zhang Yifeng looked at the scene in front of him with some surprise. The streets were densely packed with various furnaces, and the sturdy members of the Jin family were hammering wrought iron.

Almost every step or two you take, you can see a blacksmith forging iron.

Shui Xuan and others who had been to the Jin clan before were not surprised, as if they were already accustomed to all this.

"Before I came here, I didn't expect that the Jin family would be like this."

Zhang Yifeng said with emotion that he could vaguely guess the reason for the blacksmith among the people.
