Chapter 21: The Flame Pool

"City Lord, I think this Xiang family Jiang family will not respond to the call of the adults this time, it's time for it, I'm afraid they won't come!" In the city lord's mansion of Jinglan City, Wu Nanren stood respectfully beside Wu Xiong and said.

"I'm waiting for a quarter of an hour, if they really don't come, then we'll go directly, it's a big deal that I mobilize some of the official family's forces!" Wu Xiong, the city lord of Jinglan City, turned a little dark.

It was now the third day that he had summoned the three major families of Jinglan City, and there was still no news from the Xiang family and the Jiang family, which made his face a little gloomy.

Although he used the technique of bewitchment when discussing things at the beginning, he was the city lord after all, and the Xiang family and the Jiang family didn't even have any news, which made him a little uncomfortable.

"Report to the city lord, the people from the Xiang family and the Jiang family have arrived!" Just when the city lord Wu Xiong's face was gloomy, a reporter from outside came in.

"Oh, please!" Wu Xiong's eyes suddenly emitted two lights, and he commanded his subordinates.

"Yes!" the reporter turned and went out.

"Lord City Lord!" After a while, four people walked into the City Lord's Mansion.

The person at the head is none other than the predecessor of the Xiang family, who lives in Xiang Nantian. By Xiang Nantian's side is Jiang Chenglong, the predecessor of the Jiang family. Behind the two, however, stood a pair of young men and women.

This pair of young men and women are very handsome, the male figure is well-proportioned, a brocade robe, black hair is scattered vertically, thick eyebrows and starry eyes, a pair of eyes are bright, and a folding fan in his hand shakes slowly, quite like a son.

This person is naturally Xiang Chen, the current young head of the Xiang family, who is dressed like a gentleman, but he is Xiang Chen's favorite.

Although Xiang Nantian insisted on opposing it before, Xiang Chen still came. According to Xiang Chen, he is the future master of the Xiang family, and he wants to lead the Xiang family to go further, so he needs more opportunities to experience and grow. And this treasure exploration is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to experience, the more dangerous the place, the more accelerated the growth of people.

These reasons may sound a bit strong at first glance, but if you think about it, you will know that in fact, what Xiang Chen said does have some truth, and in the end, Xiang Chen persuaded his father Xiang Ying and grandfather Xiang Nantian with this to come to the City Lord's Mansion.

Xiang Chen's appearance is not bad, but compared with the girl beside him, it is one point worse. This girl is in the flowering season, tall and tall, although she does not look very old, she exudes this holy temperament, does not defile vulgar things, and does not seem to belong to this world. The girl always followed Xiang Chen's side, and from time to time she would gently support her hands, as if she was afraid that Xiang Chen would accidentally fall.

This move is really envious of others, Wu Xiong and Wu Nanren, the city lords of Jinglan City, are okay, the two of them are a handful of years, and they only show a touch of surprise at the girl's beauty. But there are not only the two of them in this hall, Wu Nanren's eldest son Wu Qing is also there, this kid is in his twenties, in the prime of life, looking at the girl's eyes are straight, her mouth is wide open, and her saliva is about to flow to the ground. Look at Xiang Chen next to the girl, this kid is envious, jealous and hateful.

This girl is none other than someone else, it is Jiang Yingxue, the eldest lady of the Jiang family, Xiang Chen's nominal fiancée.

Originally, the Jiang family and the Xiang family were against her coming, but the little girl's innocent eyes defeated everything. In her words, she is Xiang Chen's fiancée, and she has to take care of Xiang Chen wherever she goes, even if Xiang Chen unfortunately encounters any accidents, she has to be by his side.

This sentence really touched many people, and even Mrs. Jiang, who had the strongest opposition, could only reluctantly agree to her coming with Xiang Chen in the end.

In fact, the reason why the Jiang family was able to agree to Jiang Yingxue's coming was also because they were relieved of Xiang Chen's strength. Although the battle in the Shen family was deliberately concealed by both sides, Jiang Huan and Jiang Chenglong saw it with their own eyes, and Mrs. Jiang naturally heard about it.

The furious Xiang Chen can even kill the master of the real tower realm, so there should be nothing wrong with entering this secret treasure. She believes that Xiang Chen can protect her daughter. In addition, Xiang Nantian is a genuine master of the tower building realm, although it is only a virtual tower realm, but with the blood of the ancient Yan clan, his combat power is still very strong.

Considering the pros and cons, the Jiang family decided to agree to this baby lady to explore the treasure together.

In Jiang Yingxue's eyes, there was no one else at all, he just followed Xiang Chen, ignoring the reactions of others, and Xiang Chen also looked helpless.

At the beginning, Xiang Chen was still a little resistant, but later, he was submissive, with such a little guest by his side, Xiang Chen didn't feel so bad.

"This girl, under Wu Qing, dare to ask the girl's name!" Before everyone could speak, Wu Nanren's son stood up and bowed deeply to Jiang Yingxue, but there was a bit of a child's taste.

Jiang Yingxue didn't speak, her body took half a step back, and she hid behind Xiang Chen, as if she was pushing the problem to Xiang Chen.

Xiang Chen shook his head slightly, he knew what Jiang Yingxue meant. Jiang Yingxue obviously didn't want to talk to this person, so she reacted like this.

"I said that this ruthless son, this is my fiancée, I don't like to communicate with people very much, especially not very much like to communicate with ruthless people, your name is really weird, why is it called ruthless?" Xiang Chen said helplessly.

"You ......" Wu Qing wanted to scold people, but was stopped by Wu Nanren, this place is not their Wu family, and now is not the time to scold, in case these people are offended, they will not participate in this secret treasure exploration, it is estimated that this Wu Xiong City Lord will uproot the Wu family.

"Okay, now that you're here, can I understand that everyone has agreed to explore this secret with you?"

"Of course, the city lord has a good intention, and I can't help but know what is going on!" said Xiang Nantian politely.

"The Jiang family is naturally the same, the city lord has worked hard for my city of Jinlan, of course we can't refuse the city lord's kindness!" Jiang Chenglong also spoke.

"Since that's the case, then the city lord has thanked you, I don't know who you have brought?" The city lord Wu Xiong glanced at Wu Nanren and said.

"Our Wu family is led by me and my son Wu Qing, and twenty Creation Realm masters are dispatched!" Wu Nan said.

Wu Nanren knew very well about the intention of this city lord, that is, to make a statement and set an example for others.

"Since the master of the Wu family has prepared twenty masters of the Creation Realm, then we will also dispatch twenty masters of the Creation Realm to the Xiang family, I don't know what the idea of the city is?" Xiang Nantian also knew what this Wu Xiong meant, and said.

"The Jiang family is the same!" Jiang Chenglong said.

"This is very good, I also have some personal forces, in this way, since this time it is organized by the city lord, then I will dispatch thirty powerful subordinates, who are also cultivators of the Creation Realm!" Wu Xiong's face showed a smile. The three major families dispatched a total of sixty Creation Realm masters, which was not a small number, it was almost one-third of their strength. Therefore, Wu Xiong is still very satisfied with the statements of the three major families.

"The city lord's subordinates must be masters, and we are also relieved!" Wu Nanren flattered.

"The master of the Wu family is polite, okay, I'll talk about the location of this vault first!" Wu Xiong said.

"City Lord, please!" the few people didn't say anything more.

"Five hundred miles south of our Jinglan City, there is a strange peak, the strange peak is called Huoyan Peak, there is a Yanchi above Huoyan Peak, and there is a secret cave in the middle of Yanchi, which is the entrance to the secret store. I have sent someone to investigate, it is said to be the residence of a certain ethnic group in ancient times, but there are many organs inside, it is very dangerous, we must be careful!" Wu Xiong said.

"Huoyanfeng, Yanchi!" After hearing these two words, Xiang Chen's heart shook slightly. Whether it is Huoyanfeng or Yanchi, there is a Yan character in it, and Wu Xiong said that it is related to the ancient ancient clan, but he said that the ancient ancient clan is the Yan clan. If it is really the Yan clan, then Wu Xiong's invitation this time may have another purpose.

Xiang Chen's eyes suddenly flashed with a hint of coldness, no matter what, he would not let this Wu Xiong hurt the Xiang family, so he was also careful with Wu Xiong in his heart.

"City Lord, I don't know when we will leave!" The most anxious person is Wu Nanren, and now the situation of the Wu family in Jinglan City is very delicate. Because of the relationship between the Shen family, the Wu family and the Xiang Jiang family are not very harmonious, originally they and the Shen family were not afraid of the Xiang family and the Jiang family, but the Shen family was destroyed by the Xiang family and the Jiang family overnight, which does not seem to be a good signal, and the Wu family has begun to worry that the Xiang family and the Jiang family will make a move on the Wu family. Therefore, Wu Nan will be very active in the matter of exploring the secret treasure proposed by the city lord Wu Xiong.

First, it can leave a good impression on Wu Xiong and bring the relationship closer, so that even if the Xiang family and the Jiang family want to make a move on the Wu family, they must also take into account the attitude of the city lord. Second, Wu Nanren also wants to take advantage of this opportunity to explore the treasure and get more benefits, so that the Wu family can become stronger, as long as there is enough time, he is not afraid that the Xiang family and the Jiang family will be unfavorable to the Wu family.

"I've got the fastest horses ready, and I should be there in a day, but I'm afraid someone will find it before we do, so we'd better set off quickly!" Wu Xiong said.

"It's okay, go early and return early, but it's a matter of heart!" said Xiang Hero.

Jiang Chenglong didn't speak, obviously he didn't have any opinions. As for Xiang Chen and Jiang Yingxue, there is nothing else to say, Xiang Chen's heart is thinking about this Wu Xiong's intentions, and Jiang Yingxue's mind is basically on Xiang Chen.

……

Under the blue sky, dozens of fast horses were galloping, and dust was raised behind them.

These dozens of fast horses were bought from outside by Wu Xiong, the city lord of Jinglan City, and the ones who sat right away were naturally the cronies of the three major families and the city lord Wu Xiong.

"Behind the mountain twenty miles ahead is Huoyan Peak, and Yanchi is at the peak!" Wu Xiong pointed to the mountain road in front of him.

They've been running for half a day, and now it's afternoon, and they're getting closer and closer to the Hidden Treasure of Legends.

"Is it finally here?" Xiang Chen closed his eyes slightly, feeling the spiritual power here, which was completely different from the other side of the mountain, and the air seemed to contain this hot energy.

"This is Huoyan Peak, let's go up!" Wu Xiong finished speaking, and jumped off his horse first, and rushed towards the peak first.

The people of the three major families followed closely behind, and they also used their own methods to go to the peak of the Fire Flame Peak.

"This is the Flame Pond, and the island in the middle is where we're going, and there's a vertical hole there, and we have to go down the hole. Wu Xiong's hand pointed forward.
