Chapter 89: A false alarm
Zhao Chen, Zhao Qing and others are looking forward to it, the beautiful woman is looking forward to it, the Aotian Alliance is looking forward to it, and the hating sky is also looking forward to it, but the things they are looking forward to are different, what Zhao Chen and others are looking forward to is to save their mother (wife), the beautiful woman is looking forward to reuniting with their families, the Aotian Alliance is looking forward to the smooth convening of the selection competition, but what is hating the sky is looking forward to is how far his cultivation will skyrocket in ten days.
In their anticipation, time passed quietly.
In the blink of an eye, Zhao Chen and his party have already walked nearly half of the way, Xuancheng is not far ahead, as long as they go some distance further, they can be regarded as really half of the way, half of them are gone, will the remaining half be far away?
After a long journey all the way, Zhao Chen and his party continued to step on the carriage after a short rest on the side of the road, and it was almost there, Xuancheng was about to arrive.
In fact, they are already within the scope of Xuancheng now, but they have not yet entered the Xuancheng city, and although Xuancheng is close to Chiqingcheng, it is nearly 20,000 miles apart, and it took Zhao Chen and others 6 days to reach the edge of Xuancheng, the ancient city. ”
Ye Mad said: "Yes, although I have been here before, I still can't help but sigh, this Xuancheng is also a large city with an extremely high ranking in the Xuanwu Domain, but our Chi Qingcheng is a lot worse!" ”
"Chen'er, where is Xuancheng after that?" Zhao Qing himself knew the answer, but he always hoped to hear a confirmed answer from his son.
"We have only arrived in Xuancheng now, and beyond Xuancheng is Tianxiu City, a small subordinate city of Xuancheng, and then we have to go through three small cities to reach the edge of the boundary of Dangyang City, until then, we can be regarded as walking a little more than half of the distance." Zhao Chen was not impatient, although he had been asked countless times, he still answered patiently.
The speed of the unicorn carriage was really fast enough, and in just a quarter of an hour, the group had already entered Xuancheng.
This Xuancheng is extremely vast, marching all the way from the city gate, the streets and alleys are full of people, and the main trunk of the street is full of traffic, so that the speed of Zhao Chen and others has also been affected to a certain extent, if it is not for the unicorn wisdom is already relatively high, I am afraid that there may really be a car accident.
Fortunately, the street is extremely wide, much wider than the so-called high-end highways on earth, and although there are many horse-drawn carriages, they can also accommodate a unicorn carriage to pass, and of course, speed restrictions are inevitable.
Half an hour later, Zhao Chen and his entourage walked through half of Xuancheng and came to the center of Xuancheng.
After getting off the carriage, the group found a restaurant that looked passable, had a hasty meal, and then got into the unicorn carriage again and started a new trip.
Naturally, such a group of people plus high-end goods such as unicorn carriages have also attracted the attention of many people, such as the Qin family and the Chi family, the local forces in Xuancheng, as well as the city lord's mansion in Xuancheng, their spies paid special attention to the movements of Zhao Chen's group, a group of people with unfathomable strength and unicorn carriages, it was difficult for them not to pay attention.
After all, this is the territory of several forces of the Qin family, and in their own territory, there is such a group of mysterious and suspicious people, they naturally have to pay more attention and never allow the other party to make trouble in their own territory.
In the courtyard of the Qin family, a family member hurriedly came to the study with the information sent back by the spies.
"Boom!"
"Come in, what's the matter?" Qin Wu, the head of the Qin family, frowned and asked, outsiders know that he has a taboo, he hates others to disturb him the most when he is reading in the study, he is a person who loves books, and thinks that it is not right to be distracted from other things at this time.
But if there is something particularly important that he needs to deal with, then he will not be angry for no reason, such as now.
Looking at that family's anxious expression at this time, Qin Wu suddenly expected that something major might happen.
Sure enough, Jia Ding handed over this information and said respectfully: "This is the second-level information sent back by Xiao Wu, and it must be seen by you, master!" ”
Unwrapping the envelope, Qin Wu read down solemnly, second-level intelligence, which means that the safety of the family may have been threatened, so he can't ignore it, the intelligence reads: "A group of people came to Xuancheng half an hour ago, stayed in the delicious restaurant for a quarter of an hour, and are now rushing to the north gate of Xuancheng." ”
These are not the point, the focus is on the last sentence: "Among them, there are seven people who are suspected of being king-level powerhouses, and the rest of them do not seem to be weak, they are faintly headed by a teenager, the teenager is about sixteen or seventeen years old, and his temperament is very prominent, in addition to this teenager, there are two girls, one middle-aged, eight old men, and the seven suspected king-level powerhouses are seven of the eight old men." Among these seven king-level powerhouses, there is a peak powerhouse who is suspected to be a king-level nine-star powerhouse! Their origins and identities have not yet been found, nor their purpose. ”
Qin Wu's face suddenly became more and more solemn, good guy, there are seven king-level powerhouses with the surname at one time! Among them, there is a king-level nine-star super powerhouse! Although the intelligence only said that it was suspicious, Qin Wu had already taken this information as true.
"How long has it been since this information arrived?" Qin Wu asked calmly.
The family replied: "Not a stick of incense!" ”
"Spread the word immediately, let people follow them closely, if they come to Xuancheng to make trouble, my Qin family will not weaken their momentum." Qin Wu immediately gave the order.
"Yes!" After answering respectfully, he immediately exited the study.
"It seems that I still have to go and sum up with Brother Chi and them first, and I can't be broken by them one by one." Qin Wu muttered, and then he didn't have time to change his clothes, so he hurriedly went out with the two.
There was also this piece of information on the table in front of Chi Ju, the head of the Chi family, and the content was almost the same, and he and Qin Wu had similar reactions, and gave an explanation to the family, and he was also in a hurry to go to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss with the City Lord.
On the way, Mrs. Chi saw Chi Ju in a hurry, and couldn't help but stop, and asked in surprise, "Husband, where are you going?" It's not too late to change into a layman's clothes! ”
Chi Ju waved his hand and said, "No need, I have an urgent matter to go to the City Lord's Mansion, this time the stakes are very high, and I can't be negligent." ”
Zhao Chen couldn't have imagined that he was just passing by this city, but it had brought so much trouble to several major forces in Xuancheng, if he knew about it, he would definitely laugh: "There is nothing in the world, mediocre people disturb themselves!" "However, for these forces, even if they know that these troubles are superfluous, they will not easily ignore them, and they are not afraid of 10,000, just in case.
After Zhao Chen and the others left from the north gate of Xuancheng, the information of the spies was sent back, but the two family masters had already arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, and this information was transferred before it was sent to the City Lord's Mansion.
When Qin Wu, Chi Ju and Yan Tianlan were discussing countermeasures in the City Lord's Mansion, the three pieces of information were sent to the City Lord's Mansion together, and the three of them didn't care about any etiquette at this time, so they took apart the information one after another and looked at it carefully.
"Fortunately, we are not here to make trouble, although we are sure to keep them, but after all, there will be a lot of losses, and it is the best result to avoid conflict." Qin Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
Chi Ju was thinking about a deeper answer: "I just don't know where they want to go, some distance outside the north gate is Tianxiu City, go all the way up, it should be ......"
Suddenly, they thought of something at all, and the three of them glanced at each other and said in unison: "NATO City!" ”
"Yes, the Aotian Alliance has more than a week to start holding the selection competition, and this group of people is afraid that they are going for this selection competition." Yan Tianlan looked in the direction of the north gate and said slowly.
However, after guessing the purpose of this group of people, they were relieved, since they were only passing through Xuancheng, then they didn't need to be nosy, whether the other party wanted to participate in the selection competition (does the king-level nine-star powerhouse also need to participate in the selection competition), or wanted to add chaos to the selection competition, this was not something they should ask.
"It's okay, it's just a false alarm!" The three of them thought at the same time.
And they didn't know that the strength of Zhao Chen and his party was not just as simple as they imagined, king-level nine-star? No, Ye Mad is not the strongest among them, at least the mutant ghost will not admit this conclusion.
If they knew that there was an emperor-level powerhouse coming to this city, I was afraid that they would not be nervous at the beginning, but desperate.
The mutant ghost general is not an ordinary emperor-level, but a leader among the emperor-level, with three practical skills, two of which are unfathomable super powerhouses with advanced skills!
At the same time that they were relieved to receive the disappearance, Zhao Chen also breathed a sigh of relief, for those intelligence officers, Zhao Chen's heavenly eye was a good one, and in the first time, he discovered the existence of the other party, but the other party had no malicious intent, so he did not show it.
After leaving Xuancheng, Zhao Chen put his mind at ease, he was not afraid that the people in Xuancheng would be unfavorable to him, but he didn't want to waste too much time here, he only hoped to be able to reach NATO City in the shortest possible time.
The destination was getting closer and closer, and Zhao Chen seemed to have smelled the breath of the sky.
When the unicorn carriage passed through the edge of the forest that had to enter the territory of Dangyang City as it approached the evening, they had finally covered more than half the distance, and there were still 20,000 miles left, and with a little more effort, they would definitely be able to arrive in a week.
