The city lord of the mall looked at Chu Xiu in front of him with a solemn face, although he was born in the green capital, but the martial arts they inherited were all human martial arts from 10,000 years ago, except for paying more attention to the physical body to adapt to this environment with thin vitality, on the whole, they were all in the same line.

But the knife of the outsider in front of him was simply amazing, and it even forced him to use a few internal forces in his body to resist, which can be seen.

Just when the city lord of the mall wanted to continue to make a move, Chu Xiu suddenly stretched out his hand and said, "Wait, didn't you find that there is no point in the two of us fighting back and forth now?"

You can't kill me, and I can't kill you, if you continue to fight, you can only lose both.

I don't want to die, and you, as the city lord of this city, have an accident with you, how can you resist the other forces around the green capital? And what kind of black storm you said, it also depends on you, the city lord, to resist.

In that case, why don't we make a deal?

I know what you want, isn't it just an elixir, I have it here. ”

Saying that, Chu Xiu directly took out a large number of pills from the space secret box, and directly piled them up to the height of one person, and there were three big characters written on these pill bottles: Blood Returning Pill.

These pills were the blood returning pills that Zhenwutang had refined in the past, because at that time, the alchemists of Zhenwutang had a limited level and could only refine this thing, so Chu Xiu conveniently packed some of them, and regarded them as promoting his own products.

Later, his physical body was destroyed, and the space secret box also entered the Blood Soul Bead because of the space contained inside, although it was a little damaged, but it did not affect the storage function, and Chu Xiu did not change it, but he didn't expect it to come in handy today.

Chu Xiu opened a bottle of elixir, but the originally not very strong medicinal fragrance was extremely obvious in this barren place, which made every martial artist in the mall widen their eyes, and the red was terrifying.

For the people of these malls, anything that contains a shred of power is the key to their survival.

The pill is refined by the essence of heaven and earth, and a bottle of low-level cultivation pill may be digested in an hour in the outside world, and some martial artists from the big faction eat it as if they were chewing jelly beans.

But for the martial artists here in the mall, a bottle of elixir, if it is just to maintain vitality, can even make them live for a year.

With a wave of his hand again, the pills all disappeared into the spatial secret box, and Chu Xiu said lightly: "Now, can we sit down calmly and talk?"

The city lord of the mall let out a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice, "You let go of my granddaughter first." ”

Chu Xiu waved his hand, the blood shadow dissipated, and he threw Shang Qi ten bottles of Blood Returning Pill and said: "Meet the gift, I am a big-minded person who repays grievances with virtue, so I don't care if you lie to me." ”

Shang Qi glanced at Chu Xiu and immediately ran to the city lord of the mall.

However, she didn't put away the ten bottles of pills, but handed them to a martial artist who was not too old, and said softly: "Send the pills to the people who were injured last time, and let them use them first." ”

Chu Xiu glanced at Shang Qi in a slightly surprised way, and the city lord of the mall only let out a sigh of relief at this time and said, "Please come in!"

A faint smile appeared on Chu Xiu's face, it seems that no matter where you are, strength is the most important, and the rules here are the same.

If Chu Xiu hadn't shown his strength today, it is estimated that he would have been killed and robbed of treasures like those outsiders before, and he would not have been invited into the city.

Walking into the mall indifferently, Chu Xiu also looked around by the way.

The mall is called the city, but it is in fact extremely desolate, with only a few simple houses made of stone, yes, all of them.

Compared to the outside world, the only difference is that there is no pesky yellow sand.

The City Lord's Mansion where the Mall City Lord is located is the same, the difference is only slightly larger than those stone houses in the outside world.

Taking Chu Xiu to sit on a stone table, the city lord of the mall said in a deep voice: "Now you can say, what exactly do you want to trade?"

You have also seen it here, there is nothing, only some exercises handed down from ancient times, but your exercise inheritance is even stronger than mine, and it is useless for you to take it. ”

Chu Xiu said: "Don't worry, what I want to trade is not something too difficult, it's just some news, by the way, I haven't asked the name of the mall owner yet." ”

The city lord of the mall said expressionlessly: "Old man Shang Tianliang, but this name, few people have called me anymore." ”

Among this mall, Shang Tianliang's generation is the largest, and naturally no one will call him by name.

Chu Xiu's complexion was a little weird, Shang Tianliang, hurt Tianliang?

Coughing, Chu Xiu said: "I'm very curious about this green capital, I heard Shang Qi say, you came here after the Ancient Tribulation ten thousand years ago? What was the situation at that time? What was the Ancient Tribulation?"

Shang Tianliang sneered and pointed at himself and said, "Wrong, it should be said that we came here before the Ancient Tribulation, and we are just the descendants of a group of refugees." ”

Shang Tianliang pointed to himself and pointed outside at the same time: "Before the Ancient Tribulation began, those top forces already had a way to avoid the Ancient Tribulation.

But our ancestors didn't, we are just a group of refugees who are unwilling to be abandoned and desperately trying to find a way to survive.

This space was discovered at that time, and our ancestors teamed up to blast out a portal in the weakest part of the space, and then dozens of forces, possibly hundreds, migrated here.

At that time, they called this place the green capital, the four seasons are like spring, and the vitality of heaven and earth is extremely rich and abundant, which is a good place to live in seclusion and take refuge.

But the funny thing is that our ancestors have ignored one point, if this place is really a paradise, how can those big factions give up this place?

Here, in fact, it is not a world, it can only be said to be a relatively large independent space, and everything inside is extremely unstable.

About 3,000 years ago, the vitality of heaven and earth faded greatly, and in the end, even the environment became extremely barren, and it had not rained a drop of rain here for decades.

You can also see the current situation, survival has become a problem, and the forces and families that came in back then have all been broken up, forming a gathering place for huddling together to keep warm, and this is the case with the mall.

I knew this earlier, my ancestors might as well stay there and resist, through you later generations, I also know that under the catastrophe, all life has not been destroyed, and for 10,000 years, I have been surviving, and the people who resisted the catastrophe outside in the past, they have all had a prosperous martial arts era again. ”

After listening to Shang Tianliang's words, Chu Xiu felt that their ancestors were actually just unlucky.

No one wants to sit back and wait except for the truly desperate.

As a result, those who really sat back and waited for death survived, while those who dared to fight to find opportunities had their descendants half-dead waiting for death here.

"By the way, what is the Ancient Tribulation, and where did those people from the Ancient Period go?"

Shang Tianliang shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

"Don't know?"

"I just don't know, don't think that our ancestors are too strong, in ancient times, they were not even top-notch, they can only be said to be second- or third-rate forces.

The ancient catastrophe has long been calculated by some great masters of fortune telling, and in the later period, the earth dragon turned over, meteorites fell from the sky, and the heavenly fire and earth fire broke out at the same time, and various natural disasters continued, as if the world was destroyed, these scenes proved that those fortune tellers were right.

But the real reason, perhaps except for those who stood at the pinnacle of martial arts at that time, no one knew what was going on.

In the records of my ancestors, it seems that those top sects have a plan to take some of their disciples, if not all, with them.

Even those top sects can't take all the disciples away, let alone those of us. ”

Chu Xiu rubbed his head, it seemed that the matter of the Ancient Tribulation was really not so simple, but it was he himself who imagined things too simple.

If the cause of the Ancient Tribulation is known to everyone, then it is estimated that this matter is not a mystery, and those survivors of the Ancient Tribulation should know it.

At this moment, Shang Qi walked in, carrying a tea tray made of stone, which contained two cups of muddy sewage and a few gray-white things.

Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows, can you drink this thing?

Shang Qi seemed to see what Chu Xiu was thinking, she snorted lightly: "In the green capital, having water means having life, and the mall has taken root here, because there is a cave in the underground place, and you can receive some water from there every day, and these pastries are made of hazy trees." ”

Chu Xiu took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, frowning slightly.

It tasted like chewing wax, and it almost made him feel like he was chewing white ash.

Shang Qi said lightly: "It's not delicious, but if you eat it, you can live." ”

Chu Xiu knocked on the stone table and said, "Is the situation in this place already bad to this extent? For such a thing, they have to fight each other, and I am afraid that there are more people who die for it than it can save." ”

Shang Qi lowered his head and didn't say anything, Shang Tianliang paused and said: "But if you don't fight hard, everyone will starve to death, you come from the outside world, it should be difficult to imagine what it looks like for a martial artist who has reached the True Dan Realm to be starved to death, right?"

This is the rule of the green capital, for everything that can survive, you can risk your life to take it!

Even when food is at its most scarce, two neighboring forces will fight each other without any conflict or benefit.

Because after a fight, those who survived were all strong, and a group of people also died, the pressure on food resources became smaller, and the remaining people could continue to live. ”

Hearing this, Chu Xiu had a shuddering feeling, and the same was true for Lu Jianghe who was inside the Blood Soul Bead.

Whether it was Chu Xiu or Lu Jianghe, they had a lot of blood and lives on their hands.

But everyone they killed for a reason, for fame and profit, for revenge, it was all right.

But here, there is no hatred, just to live, you have to kill, here, it is simply hell on earth.
