Agni City, one of the border cities at the southern end of the southern region of Yanhuang Kingdom, adjacent to Fusu City.

Since the Flame Ancestor defied the ban and fled with his family, the royal family of the Yanhuang Kingdom appointed a new city lord at the first time. The new city lord has the surname Xuanyuan, and he is the elder of the Xuanyuan family in the Southern Regions, so he is called the Xuanyuan City Lord.

As soon as the Lord of Xuanyuan City took office, he threw out a new issue and changed the name of the city.

Due to the battle outside the city, the demigods in the family were lost, and they had no ability to resist at all, so they could only agree to this proposal.

The city lord of Xuanyuan immediately threw out the name of the new city, reported it to Longcheng, and notified the city lords of the other twenty-three cities in the southern region to come and participate in the naming conference.

As a result, on the day of the naming conference, the Flame Ancestor appeared, hindering the progress of the conference.

The Xuanyuan City Lord immediately shouted, "Old Flame Thief, you dare to appear. ”

The Flame Ancestor sneered, "Your Majesty has never issued a hunt warrant, why don't I dare to show up?"

"You. The Xuanyuan City Lord looked at the city lords, "Everyone, the old thief of the Flame violated the ban and was hunted down, and now that we have met him, we must not let him escape." ”

But no one agreed, and they all watched coldly from the sidelines.

The Xuanyuan City Lord immediately looked at the five City Lords in the middle, "Brother Shangguan, Brother Ji, Brother Han...... As the best of our Southern Regions City Lords, you shouldn't sit idly by and watch someone disobey the ban!"

The five of them glanced at each other, and finally the Han City Lord stood up and ordered first: "All the irrelevant people and others stand down, we have important matters to discuss." "As the only border city in the Southern Regions bordering the Blood Sea Country, Fusu City ranks among the top twenty-four cities in the Southern Regions in terms of the number of demigods, the combat effectiveness of the army, and the number of big families, plus Fusu City is a close neighbor of Agni City, so it is most suitable for him to come forward.

For a while, all the demigods and below left, and only the city lords of the twenty-four cities in the Southern Regions and the surviving demigods of Agni City were left in the hall.

Then the Han City Lord casually set up an isolation ban before he said: "Although Commander Xuanyuan led the team to hunt down Brother Agni, this may have been instructed by His Majesty, but there is no overt pursuit warrant, so we have no reason to act." ”

The Xuanyuan City Lord immediately took it out of context, "You said it, it was ordered by His Majesty, what are you doing in a daze?"

The city lord of Han sighed and took out a news jade slip, the jade slip was blue all over and had purple borders, like a high-level status jade plate, "This is the seventh-level intelligence of the Tianji Pavilion, and I bought it for 100,000 high-grade spirit stones." Do you know what's in there?"

The Xuanyuan City Lord glanced at the news Yu Jian with disdain, "Does Tianji Pavilion have anything to do with this matter? ”

Seeing Xuanyuan City Lord's unreasonable appearance, City Lord Han sighed and turned to look at everyone, "Everyone, I'll talk about the content of this news jade slip first, maybe some of you already know the content inside." ”

"What nonsense!" Xuanyuan City Lord was very angry, this Han City Lord actually ignored his existence.

The City Lord Han was indeed ignoring the Xuanyuan City Lord, and continued: "According to the investigation of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, during the pursuit, Brother Agni accidentally attacked the Riot Bloodline Beast, resulting in the four demigods being invaded and their bodies occupied. ”

The Xuanyuan City Lord was about to speak immediately, but was glared back by the Han City Lord, and he was stunned.

The City Lord Han said again: "And Brother Agni is safe and sound, and the conclusion of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion is that the demigods who have a small world can be immune to the invasion of the Riot Bloodline Beasts. As he spoke, he looked around and found that only a few people showed surprised expressions, so he smiled and said, "It seems that many people know." ”

Finally, he looked at the Flame Ancestor, "Brother Agni, it is already a capital crime for you to kill four demigod brothers, but Your Majesty once said that if anyone can find a way to solve the catastrophe of the riot bloodline beast, even a little, no matter what this person does, he can be spared death." As for how to sentence, His Majesty decided on his own, His Majesty ordered the arrest of Brother Agni, and Han was the first to act. But there are no explicit directives. ”

The Flame Ancestor looked at the Han City Lord with gratitude, but the Xuanyuan City Lord felt that there was a bucket of fireworks stuffed in his chest, and he could explode the sky at any time.

Many city lords were discussing, and the last ancient tradition was brought up, and this ancient tradition was related to the position of the city lord.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Yanhuang Kingdom, the city lord was decided through the ring. Therefore, when the old and new city lords are replaced, a ring match is usually held. With the evolution of time, the ring match became a formality, and the old city lord walked a form with the new city lord in the ring, deliberately failing, saving face for both sides.

But at this time, the ring match will not be a formality, and once it starts, the Fire Ancestor will fight with all his might.

At this time, the Xuanyuan City Lord was not convinced, "Ring Competition? Hmph, is he qualified? You old guys join forces with each other to bully newcomers, don't you know that this world is the world of our Xuanyuan family." ”

The city lord of Han laughed, "The world of the Xuanyuan family, wrong, very wrong, this world is the world of His Majesty Xuanyuan, His Majesty's surname is Ji, and it is also the world of the Ji family." ”

It is true that the Xuanyuan family is a royal family, but His Majesty Xuanyuan has the surname Ji, and stipulates that anyone in the Xuanyuan family who achieves the god level can get the surname Ji. It is a supreme honor to have the surname Ji.

For a while, the Xuanyuan City Lord had nothing to say, and his mouth was open there.

City Lord Han said with a smile: "In addition, Your Majesty has not withdrawn the position of City Lord of Brother Agni, Xuanyuan City Lord, strictly speaking, you who have not passed the ring match are not qualified to change the name of the city at all, let alone be on an equal footing with us." So, please speak nicely. ”

In the face of the fierce words of the Han City Lord, the Xuanyuan City Lord took three steps back in a row, stretched out his hand and pointed at the Han City Lord, "You, you, you," and suddenly spat out blood red mixed with gold.

Seeing the golden blood, the city lord of Han sneered, "Hmph, red is mixed with gold, the original realm is only in the early stage of demigods, it seems that the results of the game have come out." He arched his hand to the Flame Ancestor and said, "Brother Agni, congratulations, you are still the city lord of this Flame City. ”

When the Xuanyuan City Lord heard this, he was directly angry and fell unconscious.

As the challenger of the ring match, the new city lord Xuanyuan City Lord fell into a coma, and the ring match was directly postponed and set for three days later.

Since this process was not disclosed to the general forces, it was not detected by Su Ziyan's intelligence department, and in the end, Xingchen only knew that the Flame Ancestor had returned to Agni City, and did not know about the ring match.

In the hall, Han Feng said in a colorful voice, "Just today, in the ring match held in the Longxi Mountain Range, the Xuanyuan City Lord was defeated by the Flame Ancestor with one move, which is really embarrassing. This guy even asked his father why he helped the Flame Ancestor. Guess what, Xingchen, my father answered?"

Xingchen, who was opposite Han Feng, was drinking tea when he shook his head slightly when he heard this question.

Han Feng laughed, "I'll show you." Saying that, he got up, stood straight, and stretched out his hand to caress his non-existent beard, "The city lord of Yanhuang Country is constantly changing, but the name of the city rarely changes, what virtue do you have, how can you change the name of the city? Han Mou still wants to change Fusu City to Hanjiazhai, Han Mou can't fulfill his wish, why support you, let you be happy!"

Then he jumped to the opposite side, stretched out his hand and pressed it on his chest, making the appearance of being held by someone who was seriously injured, "You ......"

After performing this, Han Feng returned to his seat and drank a glass of wine happily, "That's it, that Xuanyuan City Lord was comatose by my father again. Really, if you have a poor ability to bear it in your heart, don't post it to find scolding. ”

Xingchen smiled and put down his drink, "It seems that Uncle Han said this on purpose because of the Xuanyuan City Lord." I think Uncle Han took the risk to help the Flame Ancestor, there must be other reasons. ”

"Hehe!" Han Feng was surprised and delighted, "You can guess." In fact, my father helped the Flame Ancestor because every time the war began, the reinforcements from the Agni City were always the first to arrive, and when the war ended, the Agni City would always provide food to the victims for free. Helping Agni Ancestor this time is not life-threatening, and it will not affect my Han family, my father will be like this, but he can't say it clearly. ”

Xingchen sighed, "Yes, Han Jiazhai, this must be a name made up randomly." ”

"Yes!" Han Feng agreed: "It's so ugly, it's so dirty to use as a city name." I think Fusu City is very good, there are clouds in the Book of Songs, there are Fusu in the mountains, and there are Hehua in Xi. Fusu City, elegant and elegant. ”

Hearing this, Xingchen smiled and said: "There is Fusu in the mountain, and there is Hehua in Xi." These two sentences are good, but I have never heard of any "Book of Songs", Brother Feng, where did you read it, can you tell me, I am very interested. ”

Han Feng realized that he had said the wrong thing, an embarrassed expression appeared on his face, his eyes were blurred, and finally fixed on the wine jug, he immediately laughed, and reached out to grab the wine jug, "Come on, come on, we two brothers must have a good drink today." He poured two glasses and pushed one of them to the stars.

But Xingchen pushed the wine glass away, "Brother Feng, what I said is true, based on these two sentences, I can judge that this "Book of Songs" is a masterpiece of the world, if I am lucky enough to see it, I will be very fortunate in my life." ”

Han Feng sighed, "Okay, brother, what I read is also a lonely book, which has been destroyed by my father, I don't remember much, I'll recite it to you." ”

"Guan Guan Ju Dove, ...... in the River Island"

When Han Feng recited, there was no surprise in Xingchen's eyes, he knew that this sentence was the beginning of a book called "Pre-Qin" in the spiritual world, he had read part of it, but he didn't know what Han Feng said about the "Book of Songs". But now, he couldn't say anything, so he had to listen carefully to Han Feng's recitation.

And the reason why Xingchen is like this is all because when he was cultivating in the spiritual world, he saw that all the books were the inventory of the Sword Casting Peak, which basically existed for thousands of years, and he didn't know who edited and revised it in the middle.

At the same time, the continent was surging, and through the Heavenly Machine Pavilion, almost all the demigods knew about the Flame Ancestor, and also knew that having a small world could be immune to the invasion of the Riot Bloodline Beast. For a while, more and more people moved their minds and secretly made small moves.

The price of the spiritual materials necessary for building a small world has skyrocketed, and it has not stopped rising tenfold. Under the huge profits, there will be outlaws, and some mercenary groups send a large number of mercenaries to pick those necessary spiritual materials by sending them to death, and then sell them at a high price.

Longxi Mountains, Border Grasslands, East and West Deserts, All kinds of secret realms, and even the peaceful Elven Ancient Country, as long as those necessary spiritual materials are produced, there will be mercenaries. It was a lively scene as if the Riot Blood Beast did not exist.

In the demarcated mission area, a large number of mercenaries also appeared, and even some mercenary groups that participated in the promotion mission directly withdrew from the promotion mission, and more and more mercenaries fell into madness.

Because of them, the second mission of the advanced was postponed for a month, which made more mercenary groups give up the advanced mission, like the Blastoise mercenary group that Xingchen is familiar with, and withdrew in the first wave of withdrawals. The Green Eagle Mercenary Group and Lao Wang Lao Zhang's mercenary group withdrew in the second wave.

Of the fifty mercenary groups that originally had the qualifications for the second mission, only nine remained.

Half a month later, Han Feng found Xingchen again and persuaded him: "You fool is still here to persevere, do you know that the kid from Qingying hit the big luck, obtained a heaven-defying spirit material, and directly sold five million high-grade spirit stones." You're still hanging around here, quit and go back to preside over the Holy Wind Mercenary Regiment, maybe this time I can pay off the debt I owe to my father. ”

Xingchen was not in a hurry or impatient, and asked, "Brother Feng, what is the strength of the person who secretly protects you?"

"What are you asking for?"

"Answer me, there are benefits. ”

Han Feng immediately spoke, "In the early stage of the demigods, my second uncle. Give me the good quickly. ”

Xingchen stood up, "That's good, Brother Feng, you accompany me on a trip, and after that thing is done, I will help you pay back the 800,000 yuan, and give you another 200,000 high-grade spirit stones as compensation." ”

Han Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, but he immediately reacted, "You kid, you won't lie to me!"
