Chapter 676: Changes in Troubled Times
At this moment, a red light suddenly shot out from the whisper's body, and landed on his shoulder, which was a miniature version of the fire phoenix.
As soon as the fire phoenix appeared, he spoke: "That's right, if it weren't for the pure fire body, how would my fire phoenix recognize it as the master!"
Mu Xue and the three of them nodded thoughtfully, the Fire Phoenix clan was originally a divine beast that was born to resist fire, although the Fire Phoenix in front of her was not a real Fire Phoenix, but its bloodline was still there, and the pride was still there, how could it make her lower her proud head if it wasn't a pure fire body.
The Hokage then asked, "Miss, it's also because of this reason that Mu Feng said that that person would definitely come to you?"
Whispered nodded and said, "When he first saw me, he recognized my physique, and it was precisely for this reason that my brother almost died on the spot in order to protect me, but fortunately my parents arrived in the end, otherwise, we would both die!"
This time, Mu Xue and the three of them understood why Mu Feng had been saying that that person would definitely look for a whisper, the body of pure fire was a rare anti-heaven physique, and it was just a matter of not knowing, since he knew, of course he couldn't miss it.
Mu Xue smiled and said, "Okay, let's go back quickly! Just follow what Mu Feng said, let Yuncheng and Chicheng prepare in advance!"
Then, the four of them stopped staying and quickly disappeared.
A few days later, a young man appeared in front of the city gate of Qingyun City, looking at the city where he had stayed, the third largest city in this troubled place, the young man couldn't help but whisper: "Two hundred years, I have come back again!"
That's right, this young man is Mu Feng, because he entered the land of troubled times from the Heavenly Straight Road, so the first stop he passed through was Qingyun City.
Originally, Mu Feng didn't plan to enter Qingyun City, but he remembered that there was also a friend of his here, the elder of the Boundless Commercial Bank, Liu Ruyan, this woman who was like a teacher and friend to him, so Mu Feng came here.
After entering the city, Mu Feng went directly to the Boundless Firm, although the time was changing, but Qingyun City had not changed much, so Mu Feng quickly found the location of the Boundless Firm.
Entering the Boundless Commercial Bank, Mu Feng came directly to a counter and said bluntly, "Who is your principal here?"
Hearing Mu Feng say this, the young man at the counter suddenly showed a trace of displeasure, but he still asked politely: "This guest officer, don't you know what you have to do with our principal?"
Mu Feng suddenly had an extra thing in his hand, which also attracted the attention of the young man, and when he saw the thing in Mu Feng's hand, his face couldn't help but be shocked, and then he became more respectful, and said, "Our main thing is above, and the little one will take you there!"
Mu Feng didn't have the heart to waste time with him here, so he directly took out the elder token that Liu Ruyan gave him at the beginning, not to mention, it was really easy to use.
When Mu Feng followed this young man to the fourth floor, which was still the room where Liu Ruyan was, the young man said respectfully: "Elder An, someone wants to see you!"
"Elder An?" Hearing this title of young man, Mu Feng's heart moved, and he couldn't help but show a hint of disappointment.
"Come in!"
Sure enough, a woman's voice came from inside, but it was not the voice of Liu Ruyan, but when Mu Feng heard this voice, his eyes suddenly showed a hint of abruptness.
The young man answered, then pushed open the door, Mu Feng stepped in directly, and then the young man closed the door again.
The room was still the same as before, and even the decoration had not changed in any way, there were still only two futons for meditation, and a woman was sitting cross-legged with her back to the door, even though she knew that someone had come in, and she still did not look back.
"I don't know what you're doing, what are you doing?"
Mu Feng looked at the woman's back and couldn't help but smile, this is so similar to when he first saw Liu Ruyan,
Mu Feng smiled and said: "An Lin, the distinguished guest has come to the door, is it rude for you to do this!"
Hearing this, the woman's body suddenly stiffened, and she quickly stood up, but when she looked back, her face was full of doubts, and said, "This fellow Daoist, do we know each other?"
Mu Feng smiled, the muscles on his face changed instantly, and in the blink of an eye, he became his real appearance.
An Lin was taken aback, but she quickly reacted, bowed, and said, "An Lin doesn't know her predecessors, and she still hopes to forgive her sins!"
Mu Feng waved his hand and said, "Okay, An Lin, you don't have to be so polite, I didn't expect that you have now become a god-transforming monk and the main thing here!"
The first time Mu Feng saw Liu Ruyan, it was An Lin who introduced him, and it was precisely because An Lin knew the relationship between Mu Feng and Liu Ruyan that she was so respectful.
An Lin smiled and said, "Seniors, juniors didn't expect that two hundred years later, seniors would be able to return to Qingyun City!"
"That's right!"
Mu Feng slowly walked to another futon and sat cross-legged, and An Lin also sat down.
"I don't know senior, is there anything wrong with coming back this time?"
Mu Feng chuckled and said: "Actually, it's nothing, just go back to the troubled world to do something, pass by here, and come to see Senior Liu by the way!"
"Oh, by the way, you're the head of the house now, what about Senior Liu?"
Hearing this, An Lin immediately smiled and said, "Don't hide it from the seniors, Elder Liu left the land of troubled times with the little fish girl a hundred years ago, and now, it should be in the Tianhua Domain, what's the matter?
Mu Feng's eyes couldn't help flashing a trace of disappointment, but then he wondered: "Little Fish Girl also went to Tianhua Domain, what about the Lu family, she doesn't care!"
"Miss Xiaoyu seems to have said that she has no feelings for the Lu family, the reason why she did that back then was just that she didn't want to see the Lu family destroyed, she can bring a hundred years of prosperity to the Lu family, and she is already worthy of the Lu family!"
Mu Feng nodded, it was a very wise decision for Lu Xiaoyu to make such a choice.
An Lin then asked: "I don't know if the seniors come back this time, is there anything important? If you can use the juniors, the seniors can just speak!"
"No need, I'm here this time mainly to see Senior Liu, since she's not here, then I'll leave!"
Seeing that Mu Feng was leaving, An Lin hurriedly said, "Senior, please wait!"
"What's wrong?"
An Lin couldn't help showing a trace of solemnity on her face, and said: "Although the juniors don't know the reason why the seniors came back this time, the current troubled times are not as peaceful as they were at the beginning!"
Hearing this, Mu Feng's heart was secretly moved, but his face was silent, and he said, "What happened?"
"The specific juniors are not clear, but the former high-ranking Scattered Cultivation Alliance has now begun to annex all the forces in the troubled world, not only the ten major cities, but even some small cities are not immune, where the alliance passes, all forces must surrender, otherwise they will be destroyed!"
Even if Mu Feng was already mentally prepared, but when he heard An Lin's words, his face couldn't help but change, it seemed that the current form of the troubled world was even more serious than he imagined.
"So, the Scattered Cultivation Alliance has completely controlled the entire Troubled Land?"
"It can also be said that, at least on the surface, the current troubled world is completely part of the alliance, however, there are also some people who are unwilling to surrender and have no ability to resist, so they choose to hide!"
"There are some such people in the top ten cities, the Ling family of Qianqiu City, the Hua family of Qingyun City and the city lord of Pingshan City, the relationship between their three cities is relatively good, in the face of the strength of the alliance, their three cities disappeared completely overnight, no one knows where they went, but even if they hide, what can they do, there is no place for them in the land of troubled times!"
"As for the other cities, they have chosen to surrender, so they can stay in their original position safely, and it is no different from before, but there is just one more master!"
After listening to An Lin's words, Mu Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, among the top ten cities, he only had some relationship with the Ling family in Qianqiu City, and he was relieved that they were safe, as for the rest, he couldn't control their life or death.
But then, Mu Feng frowned again, and said with some doubts: "How did they escape this catastrophe?"
An Lin smiled and said, "Actually, there is nothing, of course, it is impossible for a force like the alliance to forcibly bring so many cities under its command at the same time, so the alliance sent a message!"
"Within a month, the city lords of all the cities in the land of troubled times, no matter how big or small, must rush to the alliance and obey the alliance's dispatch, and those who fail to do so will be punished as refusal, and they will be attacked by the alliance, so this also gives some time to those who are unwilling to join the alliance, and the Ling family simply abandons the city directly!"
"Actually, there are a lot of people who do this with the Ling family, but those are just some small towns, and no one will take it to heart!"
"Moreover, even if the three cities of Qianqiu City belong to the top ten cities, and there are a few god-transforming cultivators, they will not be looked at by the alliance, what the alliance wants to do is just a formality!"
Mu Feng also nodded, the so-called ten major cities in the land of troubled times are really nothing to the alliance, and the alliance is not bad for these god-transforming monks, so even if the Ling family escapes, the alliance probably won't care, and the Ling family can't make any waves, so they can only hide around in the land of troubled times, or leave the land of troubled times.
Mu Feng immediately looked at An Lin and said with a smile: "The alliance doesn't have the idea of beating your Boundless Firm?"
An Lin smiled leisurely and said: "This is really not, our firm only does business, never participates in the struggle for power and profit, what the alliance wants to do, it does not conflict with us, how can they find trouble with us for no reason!"
Luo Feng smiled, but he didn't think so, the Boundless Commercial Bank does not participate in the struggle for power and profit, but this is the largest commercial house on the mainland, and the wealth in it definitely exceeds that of the Eight Great Sects and the Four Great Scattered Cultivation Alliances, such a piece of fat, if Gushan is not moved, Mu Feng will not believe it.
But Gushan really didn't move the Boundless Firm, so there was only one possibility, and the Boundless Firm had the strength to make Gumshan jealous.
