Chapter 248: Cloud Tiger Gathering
When Ning Xiaochuan left the Sword Intent Martial Mansion, the night was hazy, and the soft moonlight sprinkled down, like a layer of silver tulle covering this ancient city.
He did not immediately return to Guanyulou, but went straight out of the city to the Begonia Manor in Nanshanji
When Ning Xiaochuan went to Haitang Manor, the lord of the Sword Intent Martial Mansion and Liu Wenyu secretly entered the Sword Pavilion Marquis Mansion through the back door and saw the Sword Pavilion Marquis.
They reported all the things they encountered today to the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion.
Both of them are close associates of the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, and whenever they encounter major events, they can directly meet the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion.
After hearing their report, the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Did you really see him show the green jade token?"
"It's true. "The master of the Sword Intent Martial Mansion.
"What is his approximate age?" said the Sword Pavilion Marquis.
Liu Wenyu said: "Although he wears a mask, the old man's eyes are still very poisonous, and it is certain that his age is definitely around twenty years old." ”
The corners of the Sword Pavilion Marquis's mouth showed a hint of an unnoticed smile, and the big stone in his heart finally fell.
He could already conclude that the "envoy of the Hou Mansion" was Ning Xiaochuan.
Since he has begun to take over the storefront industry of the Hou Mansion and has begun to plan and prepare, this means that he is absolutely safe now, and there is no need to worry about him.
The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion was so wise that he naturally understood the reason why Ning Xiaochuan did not return to the Marquis of the Sword Pavilion, this was because he wanted to hide in the shadows and do something he didn't want people to know.
"It seems that Xiaochuan, this kid, is not only highly talented in martial arts, but also has a calm mind and knows how to cultivate obscurity."
The Marquis of the Sword Pavilion was even more relieved to hand over the Hou Mansion to him to inherit, pondered for a moment, and said: "His identity, don't ask too much, from now on, you will listen to his dispatch." By the way, within half a year, he controlled half of the weapons trade in the imperial city. How sure are you?"
Liu Wenyu said helplessly: "This is simply an impossible task, but ...... However, the envoy said that he would personally take care of the weapons market of the Qitianhou Mansion and the Qilin Prince, and if we could take down these two predators, we still had a great chance. ”
Qi Tianhou Mansion and Qilin Mansion are both big forces in the imperial city, Ning Xiaochuan wants to take down these two predators in the weapon market by himself?
Even the old marquis was a little unconvinced
Tianchenzi and Lin Sanzhi joined forces to lead the men and horses of the Ghost Mountain Villa to attack the Situ family of the Cloud Tiger Gathering, and it has been a month.
However, it has not been able to attack for a long time, but has suffered a lot of losses.
When Ning Xiaochuan came to Haitang Manor, Tianchenzi sat in the Qinglu carriage and came back injured.
Ning Xiaochuan said: "A mere Situ family is so powerful, they can stop Wuzun?"
Lin Sanzhi is a cultivator of the Earth Venerable Realm, and the Heavenly Ministers are also characters who are about to step into the Earth Venerable Realm, and with the strength of their two masters, they can't even break through a family, which is indeed a bit unreasonable.
Tianchenzi sat cross-legged on the stone platform, leaving a bloody palm print on his chest, his face was quite pale, and wisps of blood flowed out of his chest.
With his cultivation, it was difficult to stop the bleeding.
Ning Xiaochuan inspected his injuries and found that a scorching force had invaded his body from the wound and entered his bloodstream.
This scorching power, similar to fire poison, is able to keep the blood of a warrior boiling for a long time.
Fortunately, the cultivation of the heavenly courtiers was high enough, otherwise, they would have turned into a flame and burned until they were extinguished.
Ning Xiaochuan used the magic sword in his body, pressed his palm on the shoulder of Tianchenzi, and absorbed wisps of hot power from Tianchenzi's body and condensed them into his body.
When Ning Xiaochuan had absorbed this scorching power, he immediately withdrew his palm and refined this power and transformed it into his own power.
Tianchenzi also immediately mobilized the Xuan Qi to stop the blood from flowing outward, and it only took half an hour to stabilize the injury, "Thank you for your help." ”
In fact, Tianchenzi's heart shook a lot, far from being as calm as what appeared on his face, what kind of means did Ning Xiaochuan use just now? Could it really be the legendary Beiming Divine Skill?
It is strange to say that Tianchenzi is not moved, but it is not yet the time to turn his face with Ning Xiaochuan, so he tries to restrain himself.
Ning Xiaochuan stood in the dim light, wearing a mask, holding his hands behind his back, and said, "I'm afraid the person who injured the senior of the Heavenly Minister, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary person, right?"
Tianchenzi nodded and said, "It's a martial artist invited by the Situ family. ”
"What person?" Ning Xiaochuan frowned slightly.
Tianchenzi said: "If my guess is correct, this Wuzun should be the Fire God Son of the Qilin Palace, and I was injured by his martial arts divine power 'Thunderbolt Fire God Palm'." ”
Ning Xiaochuan frowned slightly, and said, "Behind the Situ family, there is even the support of the Qilin Palace. ”
Tianchenzi said with a smile: "The Imperial City is the place where the world's atmospheric fortune is gathered, and it is also the place where the world's warriors gather. If there were ten martial arts masters in the entire Yulan Empire, five of them would be in the Imperial City. The strong are like the carp crossing the river, the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger, the distribution of power is mixed, and any family that can gain a foothold in the imperial city, even if it is just a small family, must have an extraordinary background. If we want to lay down a piece of the country in the Imperial City, we must fight with all kinds of bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, which is a normal thing. ”
"Of course...... The Situ family is not an ordinary place."
Tianchenzi said meaningfully: "The owner of the village knows, why am I so anxious to attack the Situ family and take the Yunhu Collection?"
Ning Xiaochuan had already done his homework and knew a lot about the Situ family, and said: "Yunhu Ji, including the surrounding Yunnan Ji, Fengling Ji, Tianxian Ji, Taixing Ji, Dama Ji, Hunchuan Ji, a total of seven major markets, is the place with the largest distribution of mines around the Imperial City, rich in exotic iron ore, which can be used to forge a large number of mysterious weapon soldiers. ”
"Five hundred years ago, a branch of the Qilin Palace's side established the Situ family in Yunhuji, and plundered all the mining areas of the surrounding seven major sets. In the following hundreds of years, because the Qilin Mansion operated behind the scenes, the Situ family became the first forcible family in the Imperial City, and helped the Qilin Mansion forge a large number of mysterious and vulgar weapons every year, making the Qilin Palace's largest weapons market in the Imperial City, and no one could shake it. ”
Tianchenzi said: "That's right, if we can attack the Situ family, we will be able to master a large number of mines, have the largest refining base in the imperial city, and can send a steady stream of soldiers to the Ghost Mountain Villa." ”
This is also what Ning Xiaochuan wants to do now, and said: "We must take down the Situ family at any cost, and tomorrow, I will personally rush to Yunhuji and take down the Situ family in one fell swoop with the Zuo Protector King." ”
"I went with the owner. Tianchenzi said.
Ning Xiaochuan stopped and said, "The envoy is injured, so don't be tired and run around, the Ghost Mountain Villa still needs you to guard it." I will go with the Right Protector. ”
In order to keep a low profile as much as possible, in the early morning of the next day, Ning Xiaochuan and Murong Hua drove a simple Qinglu carriage towards Yunhuji.
On the periphery of the Imperial City, there are a total of 217 side sets.
The so-called side market is not just the size of a market, in fact, it covers a very large area, comparable to a "county".
Among them, some of the central border sets were divided into imperial cities, set up battle passes, and hoarded large armies. It covers an even wider area, comparable to a "state capital".
Therefore, although the Imperial City is only a city, the inner city, the outer city, and the border set together are comparable to a smaller domain, the sixty-fourth domain of the Yulan Empire.
It is not surprising that the Imperial City was able to gather half of the martial arts powerhouses in the world.
(The administrative level of the Yulan Empire is divided from high to low: domain, original, prefecture, state, county, town, village)
Yunhuji is one of the sixteen important towns of the imperial city, with "Tianzi Pass" and 200,000 soldiers.
Of course, the primary responsibility of these armies is to defend against foreign enemies and deal with large-scale wars. As for the internal struggle within the Cloud Tiger Group, it was managed by the Bianji Patrol Team.
The Situ family is the largest force in Yunhuji, inherited for more than 500 years, deeply rooted in Yunhuji, and has attracted many martial arts masters, plus there are princes behind their backs, they don't take the Bianji patrol team in their eyes at all, just like a local emperor, with the energy to call for wind and rain.
At noon, Ning Xiaochuan and Murong Hua rushed to Yunhuji and walked into a gorgeous restaurant, ready to eat something first.
No matter how high the martial arts cultivation is, you can't go on a complete hunger strike.
In Ning Xiaochuan's view, delicious food is sometimes more tempting than a beautiful woman.
"Zhuang Master, although the Ghost Villa has gathered thirty-six side sets of bull ghosts and snake gods, if you want to go head-to-head with a big family with a deep background like the Situ family, even if you win, it will be a miserable victory. What's more, now that the Situ family has also invited the Fire God Son, with this Wuzun in charge, we will fight even more difficult. Murong Hua frowned slightly, feeling a lot of pressure.
Ning Xiaochuan said with a smile: "Although the Situ family has a profound heritage and many strong people, after all, they are in the light, and we are in the dark. The cultivation of the Fire God Son may reach the pinnacle, but after all, he is only one person, and he can protect the base camp of the Situ family, and may not be able to protect the mines of the Seven Great Border Collections. ”
"What does the owner mean...... Start with the mine first?" Murong Hua's eyes narrowed.
Just as Ning Xiaochuan and Murong Hua were communicating and talking, a noisy voice sounded outside.
Surrounded by everyone, a beautiful and moving woman walked out of the crowd, wearing a mysterious spiritual robe, black hair like a waterfall, skin white snow, and powerful Xuan Qi fluctuations flowing on her body, all the way to the restaurant.
She was followed by twelve martial arts masters, all wearing cyan robes, their bodies were wrapped in Xuan Qi, and their eyes were like torches, just like twelve Dharma Protector King Kongs, which made the martial artists in the restaurant retreat one after another.
Powerful Xuan Qi fluctuations filled the entire restaurant, scaring some timid warriors into not even daring to come out.
"Could it be that she is the sixth lady of the Situ family, Situ Fengwu, one of the ten masterpieces of the imperial city"
"Three of the ten masters of the Imperial City are women, and Miss Situ is one of them, and her cultivation has reached the pinnacle, and she is almost invincible among her contemporaries. ”
"I heard that Miss Situ has an extraordinary relationship with the crown prince of the current dynasty, and she is likely to become the first crown princess. ”
The warriors in the restaurant were talking in a low voice, looking at Situ Fengwu with admiration and awe in their eyes
The Ten Masters of the Imperial City, characters of this level, can not be seen at any time.
Hearing everyone's discussions, Ning Xiaochuan and Murong Hua also looked at Situ Fengwu
