Chapter 699: Salt Lake City

He could already initially sense the difference between his own aura and the aura of the elder pavilion, but fortunately, Poseidon was not an alchemist, otherwise, with the powerful soul perception of an alchemist at the level of a scholar of the Wenyuan Pavilion, the soul of the elder would definitely have nowhere to hide and be revealed.

And this is also the reason why when the Danwang Gu Long appeared, the elder would be careful and silent, although the Gu Long may not be able to fully perceive his existence, but relying on his strong soul perception, he can at least know that power, which is definitely not owned by Xiao Bao.

Hearing that Xiao Bao did not mean to deny it, a trace of surprise was evident on Poseidon's face, but he was interested in not continuing to ask.

"Hehe, that power, although it really doesn't belong to me, but Mr. Hai only needs to be clear that I can control him to compete with the Wenyuan Pavilion Pavilion University Scholar." Xiaobao smiled meaningfully.

Poseidon smiled and nodded, indeed, no matter where that power comes from, but Xiaobao can manipulate it, then he is a strong man who can compete with the scholars of the Wenyuan Pavilion, as long as he has the power in his hands, all doubts and provocations will be self-defeating.

Seeing that Poseidon didn't say anything more, Xiaobao smiled slightly, the other party is also a smart person, knowing power, regardless of the source, as long as whoever owns it, then whoever has the right to speak.

"Let's go, try to get to Salt Lake City at dawn, but I don't know the way to Salt Lake City, so I'll have to rely on Mr. Hai." Xiaobao smiled.

"Hehe, even though I've been in Shabak for decades, I still draw maps every day. I am very familiar with these routes. Follow me. Poseidon smiled, his cold wings fluttering slightly. The speed rises sharply.

Looking at the suddenly accelerating Poseidon, Xiaobao nodded, and the black cloud wings flapped, and hurriedly chased after him.

In the night sky, two streamers flashed by, and above the sky, the silver moon gradually set.

Salt Lake City, located in the eastern provinces of the Alpha Empire, is a wide boulevard to and fro. As a gateway to the eastern provinces within the empire, its strategic location is extremely important, so this city, known as the largest city in the eastern provinces of the Alpha Empire, has been heavily controlled by the empire all year round.

In Salt Lake City, in addition to the power of the empire, the most powerful is naturally the target of Xiaobao's trip - the ghost gate!

Due to the domineering monopoly of the ghost gate, in Salt Lake City. Nearly 60% of the industry belongs to the ghost gate, and the annual profit, even after deducting some necessary taxes and a large amount of property that opens up relationships. is still raising the ghost gate to get fatter and fatter.

Although the tree is big and easy to attract wind, it has the behemoth of the Haruman family as the backstage, even if it is the emperor of the Alpha Empire. It won't be easy to find trouble with the ghost gate, so. Under such unscrupulous development, the power of the ghost gate. It has almost become the overlord of Salt Lake City, if it weren't for the fact that there are three other families in the eastern provinces to contain it, I'm afraid that the Ghost Gate would have expanded its sphere of influence to other big cities a long time ago.

But even so, in recent years, the ghost gate has relied on the strong backstage, and it has steadily suppressed the three major families under him, as if he is a domineering posture.

After a day of non-stop travel, Xiaobao and the two finally gradually approached the range of Salt Lake City, when the silver moon in the sky was replaced by the blazing sun, the outline of a huge city with a hint of fierce breath finally appeared at the end of the line of sight, under the sunlight above the sky, the huge city in the distance, like an ancient beast crawling on the ground.

Xiaobao and the two fell to the ground a few hundred meters outside of Salt Lake City, and after a short rest, the two changed into a wide black robe with a canopy, the loose robe completely wrapped the bodies of the two people, and the black canopy hanging down on the top of their heads also covered their faces very skillfully.

Although Xiaobao is not afraid of ghosts, but it is naturally the best to be able to solve the matter perfectly under the pity of hiding his identity, and besides, Poseidon also said that he does not want to offend the Harruman family too much, obviously, this behemoth that dominates the Alpha Empire is not to make the former sea emperor have no fear, after changing their clothes, the two of them walked slowly along the spacious road towards the towering and huge city not far away.

Approaching the city gate, Xiaobao was a little stunned to find that at the city gate, dozens of heavily armed soldiers were erected on both sides of the city wall, and their sharp eyes kept scanning the passers-by.

Looking at the almost solemn guard, Xiao Bao's brows furrowed slightly, this place is already far away from the imperial border, how can the defense be even tighter than Shabak?

Shaking his head slightly puzzled, Xiaobao and Poseidon glanced at each other, lifted their black cloaks, and quietly lined up behind the line, and slowly walked towards the interior of the city with the team.

"Alas, it's really a big show, and the ghost gate is really the biggest family in Salt Lake City." During the queue, several men in mercenary costumes in front of Xiaobao whispered to each other because they were bored.

"Hehe, today seems to be the birthday of the Great Elder of the Ghost Gate, I heard that not only many forces in the eastern region have rushed over to celebrate, but even the Haruman family has sent people over.

"Oh? The Haruman family is also here? This Mobuck has a lot of face. ”

"Hey, although the ghost gate is powerful, but in the eyes of the Haruman family, what is it, if it weren't for the huge sacrifice that the ghost gate pays to the Haruman family every year, with their vision, they would deign to deal with the ghost gate?" A mercenary pursed his lips disdainfully and said.

"Hey, too." Several mercenaries didn't seem to be very interested in the ghost gate, and they all echoed it and chuckled.

Standing behind the team, listening to the conversation between several mercenaries, Xiaobao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he chuckled: "This is really a coincidence, that old bastard just happened to celebrate his birthday." ”

"With so many forces coming, we don't seem to be able to do it, right?" Poseidon frowned slightly, and said hesitantly.

"Hehe, Mr. Bo, with the two of us joining forces, let alone a ghost sect, even if it is the Haruman family, there is nothing to fear, besides, do you still think that the sect master of the Haruman family will come to celebrate his birthday in person?" Xiaobao smiled faintly.

"In that case, it's a bit of a lift-up to that Mobuck." Poseidon smiled and shook his head, a super strong man who commanded such a behemoth as the Haruman family, in this Alpha Empire, how many people were qualified for him to come to celebrate in person.

"Uh... I don't seem to have promised you that I'm going to make a move, do I? After laughing for a while, Poseidon was suddenly stunned and said in amazement.

"Hehe, Mr. Bo, if you are needed at that time, then let's do it, I know your investment is expensive, but I think I can afford it." Xiaobao smiled.

"An alchemist who can refine the Six-Rank Pill, I really hope you owe me a favor." Poseidon patted Xiaobao on the shoulder, lowered his head and smiled.

Smiling slightly, Xiaobao looked up at the team that was about to enter his turn, just about to move forward, not far behind him, but there was a sound of horses' hooves, turned his head, but saw that not far away, several men and women riding horses, were galloping, and the dust raised along the way made everyone waiting in line on the side angry, but when they looked at the figure on the horse with angry eyes, the anger in their hearts was suddenly forcibly swallowed.

The first to ride a horse was a young woman, the woman was wearing a tight red dress, her delicate figure was wrapped to the fullest, the woman's cheeks were quite pretty, and between her smooth forehead, she was wearing a small crystal ornament, which shook slightly, adding a bit of agility to the cheeks with a few touches of delicate atmosphere.

The eyes of the woman in red did not stop because of the trouble she caused to those in line by driving the horse, but after just a slanted glance, she rode her horse on her own, leading a group of people behind her, and rushed into the city under the helpless gaze of those guards.

The sound of the clattering horses' hooves gradually faded away, and only then did some dissatisfied invectives sound in the queue.

"Damn, isn't it just that I'm the second lady of the ghost gate? What a fart, your ghost door didn't have its current status by currying favor with the Haruman family, and if you are not happy to serve one day, you will be kicked out sooner or later. Listening to the low scolding sound behind him, Xiaobao smiled faintly, squinted slightly and swept towards the dark city gate passage, and then straightened his black robe, and under the gaze of the surrounding soldiers, Bobo walked in.

After passing through a somewhat dark and deep passage through the city wall, the dazzling sunlight suddenly swayed down, making De Xiaobao's eyes habitually squint.

After a while, after getting used to the light, Xiaobao slowly opened his eyes, and the noisy sound began to fill his ears.

Opened his eyes, a huge internal city, suddenly appeared in sight, standing at the exit of the city wall, Xiaobao looked up at the streets on both sides of the dense, quite luxurious shops and the flow of people on the streets, and couldn't help but admire, it is worthy of being the largest city in the eastern provinces of the Alpha Empire, this kind of flow of people and prosperity, I am afraid that it can be comparable to the Baibi City that Xiaobao saw last time.

Standing on the street, Xiaobao rubbed his ears that were a little swollen and painful by the sudden noise, but there was a trace of tiredness in his eyes, rubbing his temples, turning his head to Poseidon on the side and smiling: "After two days in a row, let's find a place to rest for a while, and then ask for some information about the ghost gate by the way, right?" ”

"Well, that's fine." Hearing this, Poseidon nodded slightly, although after entering the realm of Wenyuan Pavilion Scholars, the degree of fatigue resistance is far greater than that of ordinary people, but the consumption of the power of writing and writing in the past two days is too great, and he will naturally not object to being able to take a break.
