Shui Wenbin understood that the Second Elder wanted him to take the lead and test Chen Tianwen's strength.

Fortunately, the Blackwater Sect was in the background, allowing them to reap the benefits with minimal cost.

Although Shui Wenbin felt very aggrieved, since things had already come to this point, he could only obey the Second Elder's arrangements!

Shui Wenbin channeled his immortal spiritual energy and shouted powerfully into Bu Huo City:

"Lord Shui Wenbin of Xishui City has come to pay a visit to Lord Bu Huo City. I would like to invite you to come outside the city for a chat!"

Shui Wenbin called out three times, but there was no response from the city.

Shui Wenbin looked helplessly at the Second Elder. With his strength as a Great Luo Golden Immortal, shouting these three times would be enough to spread to every corner of Bu Huo City.

Moreover, Chen Tianwen possessed the city lord's seal, making it even more impossible for him not to know.

The Second Elder snorted coldly and said:

"Is this Lord of Bu Huo City a tortoise? He was beaten to the gate, but he didn't even dare to show his face?"

The Third Elder's fiery temper flared up, and he shouted into Bu Huo City:

"City Lord of Bu Huo City, listen up! Your Blackwater Sect's Third Grandfather has arrived! Quickly come out to greet him!"

Meanwhile, panic gripped Bu Huo City. Suddenly, they heard that two Great Luo Golden Immortals had arrived in Bu Huo City, and their tone was hostile. How could the people living in Bu Huo City not panic?

Moreover, the people in Bu Huo City have all heard that their city lord has now been replaced by a Golden Immortal. Although this Golden Immortal did not increase taxes like the previous city lord after taking over the position, how can someone with only the strength of a Golden Immortal be convincing to the people?

Now that someone has reached the city gates and the city lord has not appeared, people in the city are inevitably filled with anxiety.

At this time, Chen Tianwen was still in the spiritual energy space. After mastering the power of chaos, Chen Tianwen's speed in refining immortal pills also increased significantly. The immortal pills that were originally planned to be refined for more than ten days were now almost all refined.

Because of the array set up outside, Chen Tianwen was unaware of what was happening outside.

Bai Qingsong was discussing the future development of the Shi family with Shi Lekang at the City Lord's Mansion when he suddenly heard the voices of Shui Wenbin and the Third Elder coming from outside the city, and he couldn't help but frown.

Although Bai Qingsong didn't know who the visitors were, he did know that two powerful Grand Luo Golden Immortals had arrived. Now that his elder brother was away, Bai Qingsong naturally had to take responsibility for comforting Bu Huocheng.

Bai Qingsong warned Shi Lekang to keep the Shi family stable and not to go out easily, then flew towards the outskirts of the city.

While flying rapidly, Bai Qingsong transmitted his voice to the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce. Having learned from the previous experience, Bai Qingsong had his family send another Grand Luo Golden Immortal expert.

With Elder Bai Xiu added to the mix, the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce now has two Grand Luo Golden Immortals in charge, so even though two Grand Luo Golden Immortals have arrived outside the city, Bai Qingsong isn't particularly concerned.

"Bai Qingsong of the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce greets the three seniors."

When Bai Qingsong arrived outside the city, he saw the Second Elder, the Third Elder, and Shui Wenbin standing in mid-air. He was immediately alarmed. The other side had actually sent three Great Luo Golden Immortals. This was going to be troublesome.

However, Bai Qingsong still bowed to the three of them and introduced himself.

"White Moon Merchant Guild?"

The Second Elder pondered for a moment. He had naturally heard of the powerful White Moon Merchant Guild, which was an existence that his Blackwater Sect could not afford to offend. He did not expect that the White Moon Merchant Guild would actually stand up for Lord Bu Huo.

This also explains another doubt in the Second Elder's mind: if Chen Tianwen really is a person who has just ascended, then with the White Moon Merchant Guild as his backer, he can indeed sit on the position of city lord!

“Indeed, I am the president of the White Moon Chamber of Commerce in Bu Huo City, and I have a good personal relationship with the Lord of Bu Huo City. If the three seniors have anything to discuss with the Lord of Bu Huo City, I can pass on their message.”

Bai Qingsong is currently trying to use the name of the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce to make the other party back down, and Bai Qingsong also sensed the change in the Second Elder's expression when he heard the name of the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce.

As they spoke, two more streaks of light descended upon the scene.

It was Elder Bai Xiu and Elder Bai Shi, who had just been sent from the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce. Both of them were at the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

The Second Elder frowned upon seeing the newcomers. These powerful Golden Immortals from major forces possessed far superior cultivation techniques and skills compared to those from ordinary forces. Therefore, even though they were both at the mid-stage of the Golden Immortal realm, he was likely no match for them.

Although Bai Qingsong only displayed the cultivation level of a Golden Immortal at its peak, as the president of a branch of the Baiyue Chamber of Commerce, his status within the Chamber must be quite high. He might even possess some life-saving trump cards bestowed upon him by his family elders. These trump cards should be enough to deal with Shui Wenbin, who is at the early stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.

Therefore, in the Second Elder's view, they no longer have the advantage, and the other side still has a mysterious city lord who has not yet appeared. So if they really fight, the three of them will most likely suffer losses.

But the Third Elder clearly didn't want to think that far ahead, and pointed at Bai Qingsong, saying:

"This is a feud between our Blackwater Sect and Lord Bu Huo City. Does your White Moon Merchant Guild also intend to interfere?"

Bai Qingsong nodded firmly and said to the Third Elder:

"Lord Bu Huo has done a great service to our Baiyue Chamber of Commerce. If Lord Bu Huo is in trouble, our Baiyue Chamber of Commerce will naturally not stand idly by."

The Second Elder stopped the Third Elder from continuing, since the White Moon Merchant Guild and the Black Water Sect were not to be trifled with, and it was best not to make things too tense.

However, the Second Elder was unwilling to retreat so easily, and tentatively said to Bai Qingsong:

"May I ask how you are addressed, sir?"

"Junior Bai Qingsong."

"Young Master Bai, have you heard that this Lord Bu Huo City might be the person the Holy Cloud Sect is looking for?"

After the Second Elder finished speaking, he observed the changes in the expressions of Bai Qingsong and the other two. Sure enough, the expressions of Elder Bai Xiu and Elder Bai Shi changed drastically, while Bai Qingsong, although trying to remain calm, revealed the turmoil in his eyes.

The Second Elder continued:

"Back then, when the Holy Envoy of the Holy Cloud Sect ordered all regions to search for newly ascended sword cultivators, the White Moon Merchant Guild must have received the same order, right?"

Bai Qingsong nodded. Almost all the slightly larger sects had received the order, but some people were outwardly compliant but inwardly disobedient and did not actually put in the effort to search. However, no one dared to say that they had not received the order.

Bai Qingsong thought for a moment and then said:

"But as far as I know, Lord Bu Huo is not someone who ascended from the lower realm, and he does not know how to use swordsmanship!"

After listening, the Second Elder looked at Shui Wenbin. The information was provided by Shui Wenbin, and now that it was being questioned, Shui Wenbin naturally needed to come forward and explain.

Shui Wenbin had already devised a plan, so he calmly spoke:

"Does President Bai know that City Lord Chen of Bu Huo City came to my Xi Shui City and moved the entire Shi family to Bu Huo City?"
