Chapter 0923: Heavenly Fire City (2)
Heavenly Fire City, located in the core area of Xiao Domain, the soul beasts that flowed into the Heavenly Realm did not reach here, so the vicinity of this Heavenly Fire City can be described as a group of peaceful.
But during the period when Li Xiuyan was in a hurry, more than half of the places in the Nine Domains were almost all in a mess, especially the city with the teleportation spirit array, which would be particularly concerned by the soul beasts, and some families chose to swallow their anger, and the teleportation spirit array was destroyed, but some families couldn't swallow this breath, and after the teleportation spirit array was destroyed, a large number of people and horses went out of the city to find revenge on the soul beasts that destroyed the teleportation spirit array.
Some families do succeed in revenge, but they also lose both, and some families are not capable of revenge at all.
As a result, the families that have the ability to take revenge, but need to pay a great price, and the families that are not capable of revenge, have all found their superior families, that is, the nine families, and sought the help of the nine families.
But the people of the nine major families have already unified their voices, and they promised to send people to help solve the siege, but in terms of time, not even a dog was sent out.
This move made his subordinate family complain.
had to organize spontaneously to fight against the soul beast attack on the city.
At the same time, they were all disappointed in their respective superior families, that is, the Nine Great Families.
After all, no one is a fool, although the status of the nine major families is respected and their strength is strong, but the courtesy and exchange that should be there are always indispensable. But what is missing in today's nine major families is this.
People should not be used facing forward, not facing backwards.
Because of the ruthlessness of the Nine Great Families, many families that have been attacked by soul beasts have already germinated the idea of withdrawing from the circle of the Nine Great Families, but no family dares to take the lead in proposing this matter.
If they are not friends, they must be enemies.
This is the belief that the Nine Great Families have been believing in since they claimed to dominate the Heavenly Realm.
Li Xiuyan, who was in the Xiao Domain, outside the Heavenly Fire City, still didn't know about the recent changes in the Heavenly Realm.
After a night's journey, the two finally arrived at the foot of Tianhuo City before dawn.
The walls of Tianhuo City are very high, fifty or sixty meters long, even if Mo'er comes, it is estimated that it will not be so easy to cross.
Li Xiuyan estimated that the thickness of this city wall should be at least about three meters, which can be described as extremely strong.
"Are you sleepy now? Do you want to go back and get some rest?"
Li Xiuyan asked Shen Xuanbing. has already arrived in Tianhuo City, as long as he enters the city, Li Xiuyan does not need to shout that he is the lord of the Nine Realms, and his safety should not be threatened, so he wants Shen Xuanbing to go back to the Nine Realms space, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble, because Shen Xuanbing's appearance, with the increase of age, has grown to the stage of calamity to the country and the people, ten men will see her, at least eight will be tempted by her, this is Shen Xuanbing's charm.
Shen Xuanbing said: "It's okay, I'm not tired, your words alone are too conspicuous, it's more natural for me to walk with you, and I don't agree to be interrogated by the defenders in the city." ”
Li Xiuyan was somewhat surprised, "Are you all clear?"
Shen Xuanbing smirked, "It's okay, but before entering the city, I think we should clean ourselves up first, and don't act like a beggar." ”
Shen Xuanbing didn't say anything, Li Xiuyan really didn't pay attention, the two of them had been blowing the wind for many days in a row, and the whole person looked like it was about to dry out, looking very haggard. If you enter the city like this, you will be driven away as beggars. It's easy
So it's still necessary to tidy yourself up.
The gates of Skyfire City were only opened after half an hour.
Li Xiuyan and Shen Xuanbing followed the team that entered the city and smoothly entered the city.
Tianhuo City is the main city of the Xiao family, and on the surface, it is no different from other towns, but in fact, it has very strict protective measures, and it is carried out in secret. Take Li Xiuyan as an example, when he entered the city, he was not interrogated too much, but when he and Shen Xuanbing entered the city, they were immediately secretly followed, even after checking into the inn, they would still be monitored by the other party, and the security system was quite in place.
If it weren't for Li Xiuyan's early awareness that he was being followed and monitored, once he made any suspicious moves, he was afraid that he would be immediately besieged by the Xiao family in the next second.
"Are the people who are watching us still there?" asked Shen Xuanbing in a low voice.
Although it is in my own room, I still have to worry about the ears on the partition wall, so I have to be extra careful with everything I say.
"It's still there. Li Xiuyan nodded, "However, the level of our threat seems to have decreased to them, and the number of people in charge of monitoring us has been reduced from four to two." ”
Shen Xuanbing said, "Then what should we do next?"
Li Xiuyan said: "I'm waiting for a few days, and we'll talk about it after they completely give up." ”
Li Xiuyan's purpose in coming to Heavenly Fire City was to help Leng Wuya get rid of his demons.
His inner demon is the Xiao family, as long as the Xiao family is destroyed, the inner demon can be eliminated, but destroying the Xiao family is an impossible thing for the current Li Xiuyan, so Li Xiuyan plans to trace the source and find the person who harmed Leng Wuyan all his life.
According to the investigation, this person who harmed Leng Wuya's life and changed the fate of his life is named Xiao Liang, who is Xiao Hao and Xiao Han's grandfather that Li Xiuyan met in the extreme north.
This person has a very high status in the Xiao family, especially the cultivation of two Soul Emperor realm powerhouses, which can be said to be an indispensable contribution to the family. But in the Far North, Xiao Han and Xiao Hao all fell, which was a big blow to the Xiao family and Xiao Liang, especially Xiao Liang.
lost Xiao Hao and Xiao Han, Xiao Liang's significance to the family was greatly reduced, and his status was not as good as before.
After all, he is very old, and although he has the cultivation of the Soul Emperor realm, there are some tasks that he is not capable of at all.
Now he is like a chicken rib to the Xiao family, it is a pity to abandon it, and the food is tasteless.
Xiao Liang himself was also aware of his situation, so after Xiao Hao and Xiao Han were done, he took the initiative to resign, moved out of Xiao's house, and used his savings to buy a property in Tianhuo City.
He is an idle person, so let him wait for death all day long with nothing to do, it is better to kill him directly with a sword, so he used some clan connections to change the first floor of his residence into a shop, selling some cheap natural treasures to pass the time.
Li Xiuyan entered Tianhuo City, and it had been seven days in the blink of an eye.
During these seven days, he would go to the streets with Shen Xuanbing every day, and if there was no point in doing anything, he would pick something to do, and the person who was responsible for tracking and monitoring him finally gave up monitoring him on the seventh day.
But even so, Li Xiuyan did not relax, and still maintained a state of eating, drinking, and having fun, and persisted for another three days.
Sure enough, after the person who knew to be spying on him left, there was actually a person hiding in the shadows, who continued to monitor himself, this person's listening ability is extremely strong, if it weren't for his extremely keen senses, coupled with his excellent acting skills, it would not be easy to find him.
