After lunch, Su Qi took a short nap and left for the slums. Although I have been here once, I am still a little lost in the depths of the slums, but fortunately, there is a "ferryman" to guide me.

Su Qi has always felt that the "ferryman" must be an extremely strong cultivator, and the last time he saw him draw a sword, he was even more sure of this. That was also the first time that Su Qi had seen the power of the Five Realms Sword Cultivation, just by using the power of True Yuan and the sword qi to inspire the sword rays, it was already enough to compete with the flying swords of the Four Realms cultivators, and this kind of sword rays were extremely fast and had extremely short intervals, and a Five Realms cultivator could fight alone against four cultivators who could control the flying sword.

"Can I take the liberty of asking your name?" Su Qi asked suddenly.

“...... Why do you ask my name?" said the ferryman hoarsely.

"Because I really want to know what to call you, I can't keep calling you 'ferryman', which is weird. Su Qi said.

"Jiang Hanlou. "The ferryman" said coldly.

"Brother Jiang's swordsmanship is very good, can you give me some advice?" asked Su Qi.

"This is the swordsmanship of killing, you can't learn it. After Jiang Hanlou finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to Su Qi, and just led the way ahead. Su Qi saw that he ignored himself and didn't mind. Soon, the two came to Zhao Yang's residence.

"Come in, I'll wait outside. Jiang Hanlou said.

It is a small two-storey building that looks unremarkable from the outside, and has no features other than being slightly more spacious than the surrounding buildings. Su got up and went to the door and knocked a few times.

"Please come in. Zhao Yang's humble voice sounded behind the door.

Su pushed the door open, a little surprised by the overly simple furnishings in the room. Zhao Yang was engrossed in watering a pot of green plants.

"Epiphany?" Su Qi said with some surprise when he saw the appearance of this pot of green plants.

It is said that it is produced in the Nanyang Islands, and the number is very rare, and each plant can be sold for a thousand gold. This kind of flower is of no help to the practitioner at all, and the only advantage is that it is extremely beautiful, much more beautiful than ordinary epiphany. Moreover, the Hundred Nights Epiphany blooms once every 100 nights, and each bloom lasts for a whole night, which is completely different from other epiphyllum that has withered in an instant, so it is deeply loved by the sons of the family and the ladies of the palace.

"Little brother is so knowledgeable. Zhao Yang smiled and raised his hand to invite Su Qi to take a seat.

"How's it going?" asked Su Qi.

"It went well. As you said, our brothers spread rumors in the market and at the same time won hearts and minds, and the proprietors of those shops were all united in our hatred and determined to tide over the difficulties with us. And the backbone personnel of the big forces who did not obey the control were also detained by us with lightning speed, and now they are probably in chaos inside. Especially the last time you happened to bump into Lu Ming and those helpers in the fireworks alley, you did us a great favor. Zhao Yang said.

"Lu Ming and those three disciples of the Mountain Ghost Sect, how are they?" asked Su Qi.

"We locked him up. Those three disciples of the Mountain Ghost Sect, I want to use them as bargaining chips to reconcile with the Mountain Ghost Sect; as for Lu Ming, he was originally a diehards who resisted us, and he was bound to die, the only question was how to die. Zhao Yang said.

"What is the other party's reaction?" asked Su Qi.

"They want peace talks, and they agree to meet tonight at Shili Pavilion outside the city. This reaction may seem natural, but it is also somewhat unreasonable. That's why I want to hear from you. Zhao Yang said.

"It's a bit counterintuitive. Su nodded from the beginning, "Although these three disciples and Lu Ming are important, they shouldn't affect their decision-making. Moreover, the peace talks were not held in restaurants in the city, but outside the city, and the ambition was already clearly revealed. ”

"What if I don't go?" Zhao Yang asked.

"You can't afford not to go. If you don't go, you're showing weakness, and they can make a big deal about it in the future. If you lose your majesty, you will not be able to obey the people. So, it's clearly a trap, and you have to push through it. Su Qi said.

"Are they so confident that they can win?" Zhao Yang was a little puzzled, "Even if the battle in the dark is brought to the surface, they may not be able to win, after all, I still have many brothers." ”

"No, they don't do it because they're confident, it's because they're afraid. Su Qi shook his head, "They are afraid that this matter will get bigger and bigger, and eventually it will be out of control in the court, so they can only let go and use a battle to determine the winner." They did not dare to choose the location of the battle in the city, which shows that they were actually afraid of attracting the attention of the court. ”

"So I had to fight. Zhao Yang said.

"That's right. Su nodded.

"Would you like to come with me? If you were there, I would have more confidence in my heart. Of course, I know it's dangerous, so I won't force it if you don't go. Zhao Yang said sincerely.

"Can I bring a few friends?" asked Su Qi.

"I'm sorry. This peace talk is nominally an internal affair of the underworld, so you can't bring too many fresh faces to the past, and the same is true for the other side. Zhao Yang said.

"Well, in that case, I'll go and see. Su Qi nodded.

"Thank you very much. Zhao Yang looked at Su Qi and said seriously.

"You don't have to thank me, just remember the conditions we agreed upon. Su Qi said.

......

......

The time has passed, the sky is completely dark, and the curfew has begun in Zhaowu City. The five outer gates were all closed at dusk, and there were no pedestrians on the streets, except for the husbands.

However, many black shadows jumped down from the high city walls and landed silently, and when you counted them carefully, there were more than a dozen people. Although the walls of Zhaowu City were high, they could not stop these cultivators.

Su Qi is also among them.

Among these people, Su Qi's cultivation was the lowest and his actions were the slowest, but everyone deliberately slowed down, not daring to despise him in the slightest because he was a teenager.

Because Zhao Yang treated him like a guest.

In the eyes of these people, there is no King Yan, and there are no court officials, Zhao Yang is their king, and he is undoubtedly the core. The whole crowd behaved in a measured manner, without distraction, not a single person rushed forward, and not one person left behind. Su Qi was surrounded by many cultivators in the middle and was heavily protected.

Su Qi looked at these Zhao Yang's brothers, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, sure enough, it was not unreasonable for Zhao Yang to be able to dominate the underworld of Zhaowu City.

Among this group of people, Liu Qi and the "ferryman" Jiang Hanlou were also among them. Su Qi roughly calculated, not counting himself, there are ten cultivators in the Three Realms, six cultivators in the Four Realms, plus Jiang Hanlou in the Five Realms and Zhao Yang in the Six Realms, this lineup can be called luxurious, and it is enough to slaughter some small sects.

Although the sky was dark, there was moonlight, and these people were all cultivators, so naturally they were not affected in the slightest. After a while, a Three Realms cultivator whispered, "Boss, we have arrived. ”

Su Qi looked up and saw a dense forest in front of him, and on the edge of the dense forest was an octagonal pavilion, which was already full of lanterns.
