Chapter 165 Undercurrent
"It seems that the Lord of Tianfeng City is having a hard time!"
Su Chen chuckled lightly, thinking that the city lord must be from outside. The local forces were so powerful that they tightly controlled him, so how could his life be easy?
"Of course it's difficult. If the Nine Chongtang hadn't been under the jurisdiction of the City Lord's Mansion, City Lord Feng's life would have been even more difficult that day."
Shui Lan nodded and said in a deep voice.
In the Qin Empire, no matter which city it is, the city lord is canonized by the central government.
Wherever every city is located, there is a Jiuzhongtang, which belongs to the power of the city lord's palace.
Jiuchongtang is just a specialized auction house!
Normally, although there is business to the outside world, the things traded are all priceless things.
Therefore, there will be many trading houses in every city.
The trading volume of these trading houses is very large. Although the prices of things are not high, the advantage is that they are large in quantity.
"Tianfeng City, in addition to the Shui Family and the City Lord's Mansion, there is also the Bai's Trading Company, which is not weak in strength."
Shui Lan seemed to have thought of something, raised her eyebrows and said.
"Bai's Trading Company? In a big trading city like Tianfeng City, the profits of the trading company are not small, right? Doesn't the Shui family have a monopoly?"
Su Chen had a look of surprise on his face.
"They thought, but the people in Bai's Trading Company are not vegetarians. Although they don't have strong people in the late stage of Heling Realm, they are rich and can afford a group of people in the middle stage of Heling Realm, so the Shui family can't do anything to them. "
Shui Lan took a deep breath and explained.
"So that's it, who is the most powerful person in Tianfeng City?"
Su Chen frowned and asked.
"Of course it's the ancestor of the Shui family, who is at the half-step of the Dan-melting realm, and the Lord of Tianfeng City, who is also at the half-step of the Dan-melting realm. I don't know who is stronger or weaker between the two."
Shui Lan frowned and said.
Through the conversation with Shui Lan, Su Chen had a rough understanding of Tianfeng City.
The ancestor of the Shui family was only half-stepped into the Dan-melting realm, yet he could vaguely become the number one person in Tianfeng City, which showed that the martial arts strength here was much inferior to that in Fucheng.
After all, Fucheng is the central hub of the northwest land and governs the existence of thirty-six cities.
In this way, it makes sense.
However, although it seems that the half-step Fusion Core Realm is the strongest existence on the surface, Su Chen knows that some masters always like to keep a low profile. Maybe the auction meeting in two days will attract the Fusion Core Realm.
So, everything must be done carefully.
"It seems that we can only restore the Crazy Sky Fire Lion as soon as possible."
Su Chen murmured softly in his heart.
Although you may not necessarily encounter an opponent in the Melting Core Realm, you can always be careful!
"However, Bai's Trading Company has been having a hard time recently. It is said that an enemy in the late stage of Heling Realm will come to seek revenge in the near future."
Qianlong said with a worried look on his face.
"Is this Bai Trading Company related to you?"
Su Chen raised his eyebrows and asked suddenly.
"a little bit."
Qianlong smiled awkwardly and continued.
"Our Qianlong team has always cooperated with Bai's Trading Company. The monsters and elixirs hunted from the Duanlong Mountains are basically sold to Wang's Trading Company."
"Not only that, Uncle Long has a very good relationship with the head of Bai's Trading Company!"
Shui Lan secretly glanced at Su Chen and said.
"Well, I understand."
Su Chen felt like a mirror and immediately understood what Qianlong meant.
The other party deliberately mentioned the plight of Bai's Trading Company to him, probably intending to get him to help.
It’s just that he likes to keep a low profile!
For a trading company that had no business dealings, it was really not worth his while.
"By the way, sir, these are the bodies of those dead demon wolves, please accept them!"
Qian Long seemed to suddenly remember something, took out a storage bag and handed it over.
"You killed those monster wolves, you can just distribute them among yourself."
Su Chen said lightly.
He really doesn't like these ordinary demon wolves. As for the wolf king, he doesn't have anything good about him.
"Sir, you saved our lives. Without you, how could we have escaped from the wolf's mouth, so please accept these demon wolf corpses!"
Qianlong said with a sincere look on his face.
"Yes, sir, please accept it!"
"Just accept it!"
"Sir, this is our intention, accept it!"
The other three people also spoke out in unison.
From beginning to end, only the young man in cold clothes remained silent and his face was gloomy.
Just when Su Chen was about to refuse, the bald parrot suddenly rushed out and took the storage bag from Qianlong's hand.
'"Haha... My master is thin-skinned. I'm sorry, so I accepted it for him."
The bald parrot laughed, and after taking the space ring, he immediately started moving.
"you……"
Su Chen glared at the bald parrot, and then smiled apologetically at Qianlong and others.
"I'm sorry, my spiritual pet is ignorant."
"No, no!"
Qianlong waved his hands quickly and said.
The bald parrot flapped its wings and picked out all the demon cores in the demon wolf's corpse.
The rest of the items were put back into the storage bag intact.
"Okay, we've taken those demon cores, and you can divide the rest among yourselves!"
The bald parrot pretended to be personable.
Qianlong hesitated for a moment and accepted it.
"What a special parrot!"
The two sisters, Shui Lan and Shui Xiang, covered their mouths and smiled.
The cold-clothed young man looked at this scene with a cold murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
"Hmph... She really wants to be a bitch and want to build a memorial arch. She obviously wants those demon cores, but she still pretends not to."
The young man in black robe snorted.
Although his words were spoken very softly, several people on the field were all metamorphosis warriors, so how could they not hear him!
"Li Cong, what are you talking about?"
Qianlong's expression suddenly changed and he scolded.
After finishing speaking, he turned his eyes to Su Chen and said apologetically: "Sir, this kid is ignorant, don't worry about it!"
"It doesn't matter!"
Su Chen didn't care at all and said quietly.
It took about half an hour to travel.
In front of everyone, a majestic city appeared.
The city wall is as high as a hundred feet. From a distance, it looks like a giant beast dormant on the plateau.
At that moment, the ancient city's roaring formation exuded bursts of heart-stopping power.
On the city wall, there is a thin layer of spar, which looks particularly eye-catching under the sunlight.
"As expected of a trading city, it is indeed rich!"
Su Chen couldn't help but sigh. Those crystals that usually cover the entire city wall are all spiritual crystals, and their value is unimaginable.
It's also because Tianfeng City's formation is running all the time. Otherwise, these spiritual crystals would have been snatched up long ago.
Su Chen and his party arrived outside Tianfeng City. Before entering the city, they found several people in strange clothes staring at them.
That kind of gaze, as if looking at prey.
"interesting!"
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Su Chen's mouth.
There is only death for those who dare to make their own decisions in this world!
Or, on the way to death!
