Xiao Liu also lived in the imperial city since he was a child.
He had a great rapport with Su Chen, and he often acted like a follower, following Su Chen and a large group of children from aristocratic families, eating, drinking, and having fun in the world of mortals.
"How did you become the Lord of Longjiang City?"
After three glasses of wine, Su Chen found the opportunity to ask a question.
Xiao Liu was nearly a year younger than him. It was simply unbelievable that he had reached the high position of Longjiang City Lord at such a young age.
You know, the power struggle within the imperial court is in full swing, and seniority is the most important thing.
"Hi! After my father broke through to the realm of Grandmaster, he resigned from his post and left the country to gain experience. The title naturally fell on me. After he became an adult, he was released as an official."
Xiao Liu said.
He doesn't have much talent in martial arts, nor does he have much personal pursuit. He just wants to be prosperous and wealthy, and live a happy life. It would be perfect to be a local emperor in Longjiang City.
During the conversation, Su Chen found that Xiao Liu was basically the same as when he was a child, and he felt a little envious.
"Brother Chen, why have you suddenly...become clean now?"
"Back then in the Imperial City, you were the all-powerful one and could be called the vanguard in the romantic formation!"
Xiao Liu felt a little strange when he found that Su Chen was always indifferent to the beauties around him.
"Ahem..."
Su Chen almost choked on his drink.
Seeing this, Xiao Liu smiled and joked again: "Yes, I heard that you married into a small family in Xichu. Could it be that your sister-in-law is in charge?"
"When you have something you have to do, your mentality will naturally change accordingly."
Su Chen didn't explain anything, just said calmly.
"It seems that Brother Chen has made up his mind to take revenge!"
Xiao Liu's expression suddenly became serious. After speaking, he took out a letter and handed it to Su Chen.
When I opened the letter, murderous intent jumped out on the page and rushed towards my face.
"For my life, the four great families have promised you so many benefits. It's really a generous act."
Su Chen sneered, put down the letter, and said to Xiao Liu, "What's your choice?"
As the Lord of Longjiang City, Xiao Liu controls all armed forces, many masters, and the city defense formation.
If he wants to kill someone, not even a martial arts master can escape.
"Those self-righteous old guys, who do they think I am, Xiao Liu?"
"When you come out to hang out, the most important thing is to be loyal. How could I harm Brother Chen for that little personal gain?"
Xiao Liu patted his chest and said.
Su Chen nodded.
Xiao Liu doesn't have any big ambitions, he is strong without desires, so he is trustworthy.
"However, the four major aristocratic families are powerful and vicious. It's hard to guarantee that there are still some of their people in Longjiang City. Brother Chen lives in my city lord's palace. Let me see who among them dares to make a mistake!"
In an instant, Xiao Liu put on an extremely domineering demeanor, causing the maids to cheer and applaud.
"Okay, stop pretending, tell me if you have any conditions."
Su Chen knew Xiao Liu's character very well.
"Hehe, I can't hide anything from Brother Chen."
Xiao Liu chuckled, came to Su Chen's side, and whispered: "You see, brother, there are so many beauties in my house that need to be taken care of. As time goes by, brother, I will not be able to do what I can..."
"I heard that Brother Chen is already a top alchemy master, so this matter must not be a problem."
Such a private matter cannot be explained to outsiders.
He could only ask his good brother Su Chen for help.
"How about Liuwei Dihuang Dan?"
Su Chen chuckled lightly.
"Hiss... Is it the legendary sixth-grade elixir that can replenish the essence, instantly restore it no matter how weak it is, and last indefinitely?"
Xiao Liu instantly became extremely excited and a little unbelievable at the same time.
Six-grade elixirs can only be refined by alchemy masters, and this six-flavored rehmannia pill has long been lost due to many special relationships.
Xiao Liu had only seen it accidentally from some strange ancient books, and he coveted it very much at that time.
"Just because it was lost within the Da Luo Dynasty, it doesn't mean it's not available elsewhere."
"Furthermore, the mental requirements for refining this elixir are average, but the refining technique is extremely demanding. I can give it a try."
Su Chen said calmly.
"Haha, okay, okay... As long as Brother Chen can help me refine this elixir, I will give you whatever I want. Your kindness is comparable to my reborn parents!"
Xiao Liu was so excited that he couldn't express it in words.
…
After settling down in the city lord's mansion, no one dared to disturb me.
It wasn't until the Alchemist Conference started that Su Chen came out of seclusion.
Early in the morning, Su Chen and Xiao Liu drove to the Da Luo Business Alliance headquarters.
The Daluo Merchant Alliance was built along the river, with a tendency to swallow up mountains and rivers. It was also next to the largest port in Longjiang City, where merchants kept coming and going, and it was extremely prosperous.
There are also many palaces in the merchant alliance, and they are majestic and magnificent, even more luxurious than the city lord's palace.
Under the guidance of the waiter, the two walked through the long corridor before arriving in front of a gray and simple palace.
The plaque in front of the palace gate is engraved with three ancient seal characters: Tianshi Palace!
"There are so many people!"
In front of the Tianshi Hall, there are many figures wearing alchemy robes, all of them have extraordinary bearing, and their whole bodies are filled with powerful spiritual power.
Including the alchemists from the Alchemy Alliance branches in various places, there are thousands of them.
And all of them are at the alchemy master level, and some of them are already half-step alchemy sects.
"Who is that person? He can actually let City Master Xiao accompany him personally."
"That person, don't you know? He is Su Chen, the one who caused a lot of trouble recently. I heard that he killed Wu Zhuan's junior brother and several Hehuan Sect disciples not long ago."
"It turns out to be him, but is he also an alchemist?"
"Then I don't know. I guess I also learned about the real sun fire. Let's try our luck."
"I'm suddenly looking forward to what will happen when he and Wu Zhuan meet."
The appearance of Su Chen and Xiao Liu caused a sensation at the scene. Many people looked at them and pointed in private.
"Brother Chen, you are very popular recently. Even I, the city lord, don't pay as much attention as you."
Xiao Liu joked.
"You are neither an alchemist nor have any intention of the True Fire of the Sun. Do you have to follow me to maintain order?"
Su Chen said calmly.
"I heard that women who can be alchemists are all very beautiful and have outstanding temperament... I'm here to try my luck. Besides, how can Longjiang City hold such a grand event without me, the city lord?"
As soon as Xiao Liu finished speaking, a waiter came to invite him to the viewing banquet.
"Look, Wu Zhuan from the Hehuan Sect is here!"
At this time, someone suddenly exclaimed.
Many people looked over and saw a well-dressed man with a slender figure, who always had a feminine aura lingering around him.
Especially that face, which was even more beautiful than a woman's, which made everyone extremely surprised.
This is the first time most people have seen Wu Zhuan, and it is completely different from the rough and barbaric image common in the Middle East.
Behind him were two old men with dreadlocks. They were both fierce and fierce, with sharp eyes. They were both masters of martial arts.
After they arrived, they scanned the crowd and found Su Chen next to Xiao Liu.
His eyes suddenly became fierce.
"Look at your eyes, as if you want to eat my brother Chen?"
Xiao Liu actually stepped forward and looked at Wu Zhan and others with a cold face.
In this Longjiang City, he is the boss, even the Grand Master has to give in.
As expected, the two old men with dreadlocks could only restrain their murderous intent when he intervened.
But Wu Xuan snorted coldly and said: "You can protect him for a while, but you can't protect him for the rest of his life."
"No no no..."
At this time, Su Chen suddenly shook his finger and said with a slight smile: "He is protecting you!"
Everyone was shocked, this was Chi Guoguo's provocation.
The expressions of Wu Zhuan and the other three immediately became extremely gloomy, but it was obvious that they couldn't take action directly here.
"Then let's wait and see!"
Wu Zhuan said coldly and passed by Su Chen.
"Sure enough, there were sparks from the collision!"
"It seems that after the Alchemy Master Conference, they will definitely have a bloody battle. I just don't know how Su Chen has the confidence to be so arrogant. Could it be that he will never leave Longjiang City for the rest of his life?"
"I think it's not just Wu Zhuan who wants his life."
Everyone was talking about it.
It wasn't until Zen Master Jiuhua from the Nanhua Domain arrived that people's attention was distracted.
Zen Master Jiuhua is a monk with a face like white jade, kind eyebrows and kind eyes. He is wearing a cassock and holding a tin staff. He is always surrounded by a soft Buddha light.
It gives people the feeling of being extremely precious and solemn, sacred and inviolable.
"This benefactor, the Yintang is dark, and there may be a bloody disaster recently."
Zen Master Jiuhua came alone, and he also stared at Su Chen and made shocking remarks.
"Blood disaster?"
"I heard that Buddhism is prosperous in the Nanhua Region, and Zen Master Jiuhua is the reincarnation of an Arhat. He has the power to read faces, observe heaven's secrets, and know destiny. He said that Su Chen will suffer a bloody disaster, so Su Chen must be doomed."
Everyone around had a look of surprise on their faces.
"I wonder, Zen Master, if you have any solution?"
Even Xiao Liu couldn't sit still and stepped forward to ask.
"To untie the bell, you must tie the bell! I hope the benefactor can take care of himself and don't act out of emotion, otherwise he will surely be doomed!"
"Amitabha!"
After saying that, Zen Master Jiuhua shook his head and left.
"What does this mean?" Xiao Liu felt confused.
"Pretend to be a ghost and listen to his nonsense?"
Su Chen shook his head, not taking it seriously at all.
He doesn’t believe in fate, he only believes in himself!
What's more, the most indispensable thing in his life is his spirit!
"The monk is right! Boy, you are dead!"
Suddenly, a strange and sinister voice sounded, instantly spreading in all directions.
A handsome young man wearing a white silver dragon robe appeared.
He was tall, with a perverse and proud posture, especially his eyes as bright as the sun and moon, which naturally contained a disdain that regarded everything as if it were nothing.
"The crown prince of the Tianlong Dynasty, Long Aotian!"
"What? Is that the guy who is known as the number one genius in the Yellow Dragon Territory?"
"Yes, I heard that he has holy blood, but I don't know whether it is true or not."
"Long Aotian? Such an arrogant name, I just don't know what it means."
Many masters from the outside world subconsciously showed a chill on their faces after hearing this name.
But more people are confused, is there any grudge between Long Aotian and Su Chen?
