Chapter 217: Trimming
After glancing at Ji Lei, Jia Ting and the others on the side, Ren Tong smiled and said, "City Lord Jia, on behalf of the royal family, I want to know some questions from you, I don't know if I can take a step to speak?" After speaking, Ren Tong walked to a relatively secluded corner alone.
frowned slightly, I don't know what Ren Tong meant by doing this, but after all, the identity of the person was there, and Jia Xiong couldn't refuse, so after saying hello to Ji Lei and the others and letting them leave first, he followed Ren Tong over.
"Your Royal Highness the Second Prince, I don't know what you are looking for me about? If there is any place to use someone Jia, just say it!"
Seeing Jia Xiong's generous appearance patting his chest, Ren Tong also laughed in his heart: "City Lord Jia said that I laughed, I came to you today for two things, first, our royal family wants to know about the identity of Jiang Chen." ”
"I won't tell you anything, as early as when Jiang Chen first emerged, our royal family had secretly conducted an investigation across the country, but there was not the slightest news about him, as if he appeared in Tianma City out of thin air, so I had to find out to you. ”
Hearing this, Jia Xiong also nodded in a sudden realization, Jiang Chen's talent now is not to mention the royal family, even those Venerable-level peak forces, and even the emperor-level forces, will definitely be blushing.
Jia Xiong groaned slightly, and after sorting out his words, he began to tell everything he knew about Jiang Chen, even the fact that he killed Li Yu and Shen Qing and made enemies with Li and Shen were all described as they were.
Rubbing his chin lightly with his fingers, Ren Tong also showed a thoughtful expression: "It seems that my previous inference is really correct, Jiang Chen, he is not from our Huofeng Great Country, otherwise a genius like him would not be able to be nameless." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Ren Tongcai realized his gaffe, and immediately apologized to Jia Xiong, and then said with a smile: "The first thing is roughly understood, as for the second thing, I have to congratulate City Lord Jia here." ”
Hearing this, Jia Xiong's eyes lit up, he had already known that after this big competition, because of Jiang Chen's outstanding performance, he and the Tianma City under his jurisdiction would get a rich reward, but he didn't expect this surprise to come so quickly.
Looking at Jia Xiong's surprised look, Ren Tong also took out a scroll from the ring and said solemnly: "From today onwards, Tianma City will be officially upgraded to a first-class city, and Jia Xiong will be appointed as the hereditary city lord of Tianma City, thank you!"
After announcing the contents on the scroll, Ren Tong handed it to Jia Xiong, patted him on the shoulder twice and said, "This reward, I guess City Lord Jia didn't expect it before, right? haha...... In the future, the resources enjoyed by Tianma City will be comparable to those of ordinary first-class cities!"
After hearing this, a touch of ecstasy immediately appeared on Jiang Chen's face, you must know that the previous Tianma City could only be regarded as one of the many important towns in the Fire Maple Country, and the City Lord's Mansion was the lowest level of grandmaster-level power, and it was promoted to a first-level city, which can be said to be a two-step jump, and I believe that in the future, relying on the resources allocated by the royal family every year, the Jia family will be able to completely prosper.
Thinking of all this, it was all thanks to Jiang Chen, Jia Xiong felt a burst of emotion in his heart, recalling that the previous teenager had prepared a lot of time to kill Shen Qing, and now, he has become a hot figure in the Fire Maple Competition!
After chatting with Ren Tong for a few more words, Jia Xiong also left the palace and returned to the post station in Tianma City, and some couldn't wait to inform everyone of the good news, which also caused everyone to cheer.
.........
The night is getting deeper, and in the depths of the palace, in an extremely luxurious palace, there is a pale young man, whose whole body is tightly bandaged, and on his bedside table, there are more than a dozen jade bottles of all sizes containing pills.
After a while, Jiang Chen slowly opened his eyes, his face immediately showed a trace of pain, and he grinned and gasped: "Damn, this time it's really planted, I didn't put the heaven-level martial arts in my eyes before, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful." ”
Jiang Chen's mind at this moment kept echoing with the mysterious phantom that appeared behind Lan Feng before, and he felt that something was wrong with the phantom before, but he couldn't say anything, until now, there was still a feeling of indescribability.
"On the jade slip that records the Nine Steps of Instant Thunder, it is clearly said that after practicing to the Ninth Step, the power can be compared to the Heavenly Rank Martial Arts, but today, it is simply! Even if the Ninth Step of Instant Thunder and the Thunder Kill are added together, they are not the opponents of the blood light. ”
"Little guy, you're wrong, the heaven-level martial arts that Lan Feng used today are not ordinary heaven-level martial arts, but those with martial arts images, when it comes to martial arts images, how much do you know?"
"Martial arts image?"
After muttering a few words slightly, his eyes rolled, and Jiang Chen guessed with some uncertainty: "The so-called image can't be the afterimage left by the person who created the martial art......, right?"
Hearing Jiang Chen's words, Long Fan smiled and said: "You kid really guessed correctly this time, there is no primary, intermediate, and advanced level martial arts, there is, but there is a difference between whether there is a martial arts image, and there is no heaven-level martial art without a martial arts image, and the strong people at the peak of the Spirit Sect can create it, but if there is an image, then at least it is the Spirit Venerable, and even the Spirit Emperor strong can create it." ”
After learning the mystery of the heaven-level martial arts, Jiang Chen also understood in his heart: "I really can't imagine that Lan Feng will have a heaven-level martial arts with a martial arts image, by the way, teacher, what is the difference in power between the heaven-level martial arts with and without the image?"
"How much is the difference in power? It's like the difference between cloud and mud, you must know that the martial arts with the image of the martial arts, to a certain extent, can be said to be performed by the creator of the martial arts, that is, by the remnants of the Spirit Venerable, or even the Spirit Emperor powerhouse, think about it......"
As soon as Long Fan finished speaking, he felt that an extremely strong spiritual power fluctuation was moving towards this side, and after telling Jiang Chen that a strong person was coming, and not to contact him again, there was no movement, and Jiang Chen was also a little confused.
.........
After a while, there was a knock on the door, and Jiang Chen also began to admire Long Fan's keen perception, so he quickly sat up and said, "Please come in!" After a strong man in a dragon robe pushed the door in.
Seeing that the person who came turned out to be Emperor Huofeng, Jiang Chen first showed a hint of surprise, but due to his inconvenience, he could only bow slightly: "I don't know that Your Majesty has arrived, Jiang Chen is inconvenient and can't salute, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive me for my rude crime." ”
Patting Jiang Chen's shoulder twice, Emperor Huofeng smiled quite kindly: "It's okay, between martial artists, you don't have to pay attention to those red tapes, this time I came, there are some things, I want to ask you, you don't have to be nervous." ”
Jiang Chen had already guessed that the reason why the royal family took such good care of himself was probably to buy himself and let him stay in the Great Fire Maple Country for the use of the royal family: "Your Majesty has any problems, but it doesn't matter, the juniors should tell the truth." ”
Nodding slightly, the Fire Maple Emperor began to ask: "After a few days of investigation, I found that you are not from your own country, I don't know which country you are? ”
"Your Majesty is right, the younger generation is indeed not a native of the Great Maple Country, speaking of which, I should be regarded as a person from the Great Power of the Iron Dragon, this time I came out to go out to experience it, but I just passed through the Great Nation of Huofeng. Jiang Chen replied willingly.
Hearing this, Emperor Huofeng raised his eyebrows, he had also heard of the Iron Dragon Country, it could only be regarded as a low-level power, and the three major forces in the country were all grandmaster-level, and it was said that there was no existence of venerable-level strength, and it was not too far away from his country.
"It's no wonder, Jiang Chen, there is still a gap between the Iron Dragon Great Power and my Huofeng Great Country, I don't know if you are willing to stay in our country and serve my royal family from now on? As long as you agree, in terms of treatment, I will never be able to treat you badly. ”
Seeing that the royal family really threw an olive branch to him, Jiang Chen was not surprised, and after bowing his head and hesitating for a while, he said: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, the junior came out this time because he had a task in mind, and I didn't want to think about these things before the task was completed." ”
In fact, after politely rejecting Emperor Huofeng, Jiang Chen was still a little nervous in his heart, you must know that the middle-aged man in front of him was a spiritual powerhouse, even if the teacher went out, he would never be his opponent, if he really used some means to force himself to submit, there was really no good way for a while, he couldn't beat it, and he couldn't run away, it was really a headache.
.........
"Haha, since you still have important things to do, then I won't be reluctant, I guess you should be a disciple of the Sifang Sect, right?
Jiang Chen was also a little surprised when he was guessed by Emperor Huofeng, but he was relieved when he thought about it, first of all, he was not an evil cultivator, and he was not good at using swords, so naturally he would not be a person from the Xuanjian Pavilion and the Hades God Sect, then, there would only be the Sifang Gate left.
With a slight salute, Jiang Chen said: "Forgive the previous rudeness of the juniors, I didn't expect that Your Majesty is an old acquaintance with our sect master, but our sect master's cultivation is not as deep as Your Majesty's, and when I first came out, he only broke through to the level of Lingzun." ”
Knowing that Elder Xiao had actually achieved the position of Venerable, Emperor Huofeng showed a hint of surprise for the first time, and immediately shook his head with a wry smile: "Jiang Chen, you are wrong when you say this, when I am already a Spirit Venerable and he is still a ninth-order Spirit Sect, I am not his opponent. ”
"Alas...... Your sect master can indeed be regarded as an amazing talent, and although the Sifang Sect is only a grandmaster-level force, even if it is an ordinary venerable-level force, it does not dare to invade easily, these secrets, not many people know about them......"
After listening to Emperor Huofeng's words, Jiang Chen was really a little surprised, although he had heard a little about the affairs of the Sifang Gate from Long Fan before, but he didn't expect that even Xiao Lao was so strong, and he actually defeated a Spirit Venerable powerhouse with the realm of Spirit Sect!
Seeing Jiang Chen's curious look, Emperor Huofeng smiled slightly, didn't say anything more, and instructed him to rest well, and after instructing the waiters outside if he needed anything, he slowly left the room.
After Emperor Huofeng left, Jiang Chen also came back to his senses, and after coughing twice, his body was still a little unable to lift his strength, and he smiled bitterly at the moment, and formed a seal with his hands, and began to operate the Heavenly Fire Evil God Record in his body.
.........
A few days ago, when Lan Feng was performing that Heavenly Rank Martial Skill, most people already knew about this big color ranking, and the one who should be most happy was undoubtedly Daoran.
Lan Feng's injuries at that time, in five days, it was impossible to recover, and at the same time, he couldn't use that heaven-level martial art again, so naturally he wouldn't be the opponent of Yan Daoran, so the top three were basically a certainty, Ren Tong, Jiang Chen, and Yan Daoran!
But on the issue of the champion, the Imperial City can be said to have set off a lot of public opinion turmoil, the previous battle between Jiang Chen and Lan Feng, everyone witnessed it with their own eyes, even the heaven-level martial arts with a martial arts image failed to destroy Jiang Chen, which couldn't help but make almost all young martial artists curious about Jiang Chen's strength.
Jiang Chen's current status is already to protect the two and fight for one, it depends on his next duel with Ren Tong, and this battle will also determine who will win the championship of this Fire Maple Competition.
Now in the city, many people have predicted that Jiang Chen is very likely to become the biggest dark horse in the history of Huofeng Dabi, defeat the second prince Ren Tong again, and advance to the championship!
But these, Jiang Chen, who was in the depths of the palace, naturally did not know, and he was not interested in knowing, within a few days, due to the assistance of the four-grade healing pill provided by the royal family, the injury had already healed, but there was still no good solution.
Jiang Chen, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed and cultivating, slowly opened his eyes, his sword eyebrows raised slightly, as if he was worried about something: "The injury I suffered last time was too serious, it can be called the heaviest one, if I hadn't deceived Lan Feng with my willpower, I would definitely lose!"
"There is only one day left until the next battle, and I am not suitable for fighting to the death with Ren Tong in my current state...... Jiang Chen muttered to himself.
