Lu Chen nodded when he heard this, and quickly entered the mansion with the Seven City Lords.
"Haha, little friend Lu, the city lord is really sorry for what happened last night. Of course, in order to express our apology, Muling Village and Daofeng Village will be gone from now on. You can sit wherever you like!"
Entering the lobby, Lu Chen looked around. There were more than ten people in the lobby. In addition to the six city lords, there were also seven other monks at the peak of the warrior realm who were selected yesterday. However, Lu Chen did not see the remaining two. Pass.
Seeing that the great city lord was so polite to a peak warrior monk who was selected together with them, everyone had complicated expressions on their faces and all looked at the young man who had just walked into the lobby.
"The big city lord is too polite. The younger one is also lucky. Thank you city lord for your concern!" Lu Chen felt that the several city lords were too polite, a bit too much. He looked around and saw the other people's expressions were weird, and he suddenly felt something in his heart.
"Damn, these two bastards are really old foxes!"
As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, a cursing voice came from the door of the lobby. It was the Fourth City Lord and the Sixth City Lord. They had gloomy faces and there were traces of being burned on their clothes. This scene surprised everyone in the lobby. .
"Fourth and Sixth, sit down and talk!" the city lord said, pointing to the two seats.
"What a damn bad luck. These guys have been prepared for a long time. Lao Liu and I went to Muling Village and Daofeng Village separately. Unexpectedly, these guys ran away with their belongings. I planned to come back, but the moment I turned around, I was caught in a sea of fire. !”
"Sea of Fire?" The Seven City Lords frowned in confusion.
"Well, a fire source appeared from nowhere and instantly ignited Muling Village, Daofeng Village and the surrounding forests. The fire was very strong. In desperation, our brothers had no choice but to put out the fire with our guards."
"Well……"
Everyone was speechless. They originally wanted to teach Muling Village and Daofeng Village a lesson with their guards. Unexpectedly, they were tricked by Muling Village and Daofeng Village. The two dignified city lords of Gangnancheng actually took their guards to put out the fire. , this is quite a joke if it spreads.
"The two mountain villages, Muling Village and Daofeng Village, are located deep in the mountains. Fires suddenly broke out. They must have used the spiritual array to set the surrounding mountains on fire. It seems they don't want to go back at all!"
Everyone nodded. No one here had the guts to set their own nest on fire.
"Scar and Old Ghost Teng are quite cunning. They set the surrounding mountains on fire. If you go forward, the fire will have to be extinguished no matter what. In this way, no matter when they leave, they will have enough time."
The seventh city lord spoke, and Lu Chen also nodded. He was even more afraid of this Zhi Duoxing from Gangnan City. With just a few words from the fourth city lord, he had already guessed the whole thing. Although it was simple, in such a short time He and Lu Chen were probably the only ones in the lobby who made such an analysis.
"They are just rogue bandits. Things are not simple this time. When things get done, we brothers have to get to know them well!" A cold light flashed in the eyes of the big city lord. Apparently, Muling Village and Daofeng Village also made him extremely angry this time.
Setting fire to the mountains would cause considerable damage to Gangnan City. If one were not careful, the entire Gangnan City would be engulfed in flames. Fortunately, Muling Village and Daofeng Village were located deep in the mountains, and the two city lords extinguished the fire in time.
The Seventh City Lord nodded, "Everyone knows why we are screening you. Only ascetics below the level of a martial artist can enter there. The peak level of a warrior is undoubtedly the best choice. For everyone's safety, these two are specially selected from the guards of the City Lord's Mansion. Those who come out to guide everyone have already gone in once and know the inside better, so they can save you a lot of trouble."
The Seventh City Lord pointed at two unfamiliar faces and said.
Lu Chen and others followed their fingers to look at the two guards standing beside the city lord, frowning slightly.
"Don't worry, everyone, they also have the strength of the peak warrior realm, they will not drag you down, and they know a little about that area. As long as you bring what we need, the reward will be doubled."
"What?"
"Double it again?"
There was an uproar in the lobby. The previous screening reward was already extremely high. If the reward was doubled, even Lu Chen would click his tongue, "What a generous deal!"
Lu Chen said this, but he was even more vigilant in his heart. Pies in the sky will not fall from the sky. He will naturally not forget what Mr. Ge just told him last night.
Faced with such a generous remuneration, even if some people were not happy to have people from the City Lord's Mansion following them at the moment, they still kept silent. Everyone knows that saying that they have been in it can give them a lot of help, but the reality is probably the same as them. It was the first time for them to enter, otherwise there would be no chance for them to enter.
In fact, the two of them just wanted to monitor everyone. If they were not careful, they would show their knives to several people with their backhand.
"Since the rewards given by the several city lords are so generous, we will naturally try our best. I don't know where the city lord wants to go this time..." A monk asked.
"There's no need to rush this. Everyone will know when we get here, and what we want to get is very simple!" The Lord of the Seventh City spoke hurriedly when he saw someone asking.
"Little guy, you have to be careful this time. The soul fire of these seven city lords fluctuates greatly. These guys must have bad intentions." Mr. Ge suddenly warned.
"Teacher, don't worry. If they don't use tricks, it will be easy for everyone to talk. Otherwise, we will keep them all!" Lu Chen looked calm on the surface, but he had already made up his mind.
"In that case, let's go!"
The big city lord waved his hand, and several flying monsters appeared outside the lobby, "Tsk, shunfengdiao, these city lords are really generous!"
Shunfeng Eagle is a flying monster. Although it has no attack methods, it is extremely fast and very simple to raise and tame. It is definitely wanted by many forces among flying monsters. I didn't expect that there are so many in Gangnancheng.
"It's just a few flying monsters. If they are all attacking monsters, that would be a big deal!" The Seventh City Lord turned away and his figure appeared on the back of a Wind Eagle.
"This time, we are bound to win!" Several city lords looked at each other.
He tapped his toes on the ground, and Lu Chen's figure appeared on the back of a Shunfeng Eagle. As soon as he stood firm, two figures appeared on his left and right.
"Um?"
Glancing at the two figures sandwiching him, Lu Chen frowned slightly and turned back to glance at the Seven City Lords not far away. The latter didn't notice this. Then he looked at the other Shunfeng Eagles, screening their backs. The strong man who came out also had a gloomy look on his face.
It's no wonder that the figures on the left and right of Lu Chen are the guards of the city lord's palace. They all have the strength of the peak warrior realm. They can be selected among the many guards. Lu Chen has no doubt that the fighting power of the two is definitely stronger than in the duel field. The selected strong man, and except for him, all the other Shunfeng Diao, except for the seven city lords, had a city lord accompanying a selected strong man.
"Don't worry, everyone. This Shunfeng Eagle is extremely fast. This time is of great importance. In order for things to go smoothly, our city lords can only be responsible for your safety." The seven city lords seemed to have noticed something unusual and couldn't help but clasped their fists and said.
Although the few selected strong men were extremely unhappy, the Seven City Lords had already said so, and they had nothing to say. Only then did they realize that this matter did not seem to be simple. Now, it was no longer possible to go back. possible.
"Set off!"
There was a sharp shout, and the sound of breaking through the air was heard one after another. Several downwind eagles fluttered their wings and roared into the air. Even if they were faster than Lu Chen's full speed, they were still slower than Lu Chen.
Looking at the rapidly receding land and mountains below, Lu Chen's mind was in turmoil. Traveling around the world like this was not what he had been pursuing. Not only him, but also other strong men looked excited. For these, the seven city lords had expressions on their faces. The contempt disappeared in an instant, but it was caught in Lu Chen's eyes, and he couldn't help but become more vigilant.
"This person has different appearances and duplicities, so we have to be on guard. There is also the wife of the Eighth City Lord. She can make several city lords jealous, so she must have a lot of trump cards. This time, the family members of the other city lords did not come, but she is the only one. It’s really weird.”
The wife of the Eighth City Lord, not to mention Lu Chen, even the elder felt that this woman would not be as simple as she appeared.
Lu Chen's ability to intimidate the duel field is considered a monster, but this eighth lady can intimidate the eight major city lords. In other words, this intermediary can actually intimidate the entire Gangnan City.
For such a terrifying woman, no one would believe her if she said she had no means.
I took a closer look at the Shunfeng Eagle of the Eighth City Lord. Apart from a selected cultivator, there were only two of them, and there was nothing unusual about it for a while.
"Huh? This route?" Half a quarter of an hour later, Lu Chen frowned slightly and looked at the city passing below. He found that this city seemed familiar.
With such thoughts flashing through his mind, Lu Chen couldn't help but take a closer look. After watching carefully for a long time, his expression finally changed drastically, "Is this the way Uncle Wen and I came here?"
Below, the speeding land was the place where he and Uncle Wen's caravan walked step by step. He remembered clearly that on the way here, he encountered endless caves underground, countless coffins, and was even attacked by mercenaries. Loot.
"Ten Thousand Tombs Double Formation?" Lu Chen couldn't help but feel nervous when he thought of the seal formation composed of countless coffins, the seal that made Mr. Ge's heart tremble.
"Oops, if they really discover the Ten Thousand Tombs Double Formation, I'm afraid they will die this time!" Lu Chen's face changed as he thought about how to deal with it.
"No, according to the teacher's guess, the Ten Thousand Tombs Double Formation is a seal. If they open it, if the thing below appears in the world, it will definitely be a disaster for Lingtian Continent. To suppress it with the Nine Netherworld Snake, this method..." The more Lu Chen thought about it, the more worried he became. trembling.
"I hope it's not the same place, otherwise I'll have to keep you all inside!" Lu Chen made up his mind, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
More than an hour passed, and several Shunfeng Eagles stopped in mid-air. The Seventh City Lord glanced below, then looked back at the Eighth City Lord. The two looked at each other, and the Eighth City Lord woke up the shrew who had fallen asleep.
The shrew muttered, stood up, glanced down and around, and then nodded.
"Okay, we're here!"
The big city lord shouted loudly, the Shunfeng Eagle fell down, and everyone landed on the ground. Except for a few city lords, they all looked around with wary expressions.
