391 Tianshui Zong and I are a perfect match
Chu Linfeng has always been carefree. He is the most heartless among his fellow disciples, and also the one who lives the most carefree life.
It was rare to see him with this expression, so Ning Yao asked with concern: "Fifth Junior Brother, what's wrong?"
Chu Linfeng raised his head and said uncertainly: "I seem to have seen the key that Senior Qiongqi mentioned."
Everyone's eyes lit up: "Where did you see it?"
"My ancestor's key." Chu Linfeng racked his brains to recall what happened back then. "I saw it once by chance when I was very young. The key that my ancestor wore close to his body was engraved with a snake connected head to tail. It looked very much like the key that Senior Qiongqi mentioned."
"I was curious and wanted to take it to have a look, but the old ancestor didn't give it to me. He only said that this is the treasure of our Chu family, a gift from the Great Perfection Immortal Venerable, and it will be passed on to me when I reach the Tribulation Crossing Stage."
Because it happened when he was very young, Chu Linfeng's memory of it is very vague.
If Qiongqi had not described the key clearly enough, he would not have remembered it.
And now Chu Linfeng is still afraid that this is just his own imagination, and is not sure whether the Chu family really has this thing.
But it’s not a big problem. He will know the answer once he returns to the Chu family.
"On the way back to Tianshui Sect, we have to pass through Zhongzhou, so you can go and ask." said the Sixth Elder.
Zhao Shi heard his voice-over: "Aren't you going?"
The Sixth Elder smiled awkwardly but politely: "It's not appropriate for me to go."
Chu Linfeng stared at him suspiciously: "You don't have a grudge against my family, do you?"
The Sixth Elder whispered: "Your family is so rich, who can have no grudges against your family?"
He didn't want to talk about this any more, and said to everyone, "After I send you to Zhongzhou, I will return to Tianshui Sect first. Regardless of whether you have found out the whereabouts of the key or not, you all should return to the sect after you are done."
After saying that, the Sixth Elder took a special look at Ning Yao, signaling him to keep an eye on his fellow disciples and not let Jiang Xin go to the Spirit Demon Realm to break the seal without permission.
Ning Yao nodded to let him rest assured, but he also did not agree to unlock the seal like this.
"Let's go." The Sixth Elder made a gesture, and the purple gold hammer in his hand suddenly enlarged, standing in front of everyone like a small mountain.
He raised a wave of spiritual power and brought Senior Brother Ning Yao and his sister up with him, and drove the purple gold hammer that was as big as a mountain towards Zhongzhou in a mighty manner.
…
There is no unified dynasty of cultivation in Zhongzhou; the territories are divided among the major families according to their strength.
As the richest family in Zhongzhou and the owner of the Kesiyunlai Trading Company, the Chu family has the greatest influence and the most say, and naturally owns the largest territory.
The Sixth Elder sent Ning Yao and his party to the border between the Demon Realm and Central Continent, then stopped far away and told Chu Linfeng: "Go back and say that this was your own idea, and don't mention that I knew about it."
Chu Linfeng assured him: "I know, don't worry, the old ancestor loves me the most."
Lin Yan felt an inexplicable sense of worry in his heart, as if he had missed something.
Before he could think about it, a cultivator in the fusion stage suddenly approached from the direction of Zhongzhou.
Several extremely oppressive pressures came, but they had no effect on Ning Yao and others who had experienced the successive pressure bombardments from the Tribulation Crossing cultivators in the Demon Realm.
A strong male voice shouted, "Zhou Changyun, you are so bold, you dare to come to our Zhongzhou to cause trouble!"
"Be careful!" The Sixth Elder said hurriedly, picked up the purple gold hammer, turned around and ran away.
Several rays of light followed closely behind, and those who were cursing were all cultivators in the fusion stage from the major families in Central Continent.
Jiang Xin and her fellow brothers and sisters hid under a tree and watched in amazement.
After everyone left, she couldn't help but ask, "Sixth Master has so many enemies in Zhongzhou. According to past experience, the other Masters and even Grand Master must have enemies in Zhongzhou, right?"
"Not only the elders, but also the brothers and sisters from other peaks have made many enemies here." After Lin Yan finished speaking, he remembered something and motioned for everyone to check their identity jade cards. "Everyone, hide the jade cards well, so as not to be exposed and make our journey in Zhongzhou difficult."
Jiang Xin hid the identity jade token hidden in the Xumi bracelet at the bottom and asked curiously, "Fifth Senior Brother, you grew up in such an environment, how did you come up with the idea of joining the Tianshui Sect?"
Chu Linfeng raised his head proudly: "Because Tianshui Sect and I are a perfect match."
Jiang Xin was puzzled: "What do you mean?"
Chu Linfeng: "I have many enemies in Zhongzhou."
Others: “…”
Don’t say it, really don’t say it, just looking at it this way, they are indeed a good match.
The group walked towards Zhongzhou, and Zhao Shi took out three masks and held them in his hands hesitantly.
"Fourth Senior Brother, what's wrong?" Jiang Xiao asked curiously.
"I originally wanted to give some to you to cover your looks, but I didn't expect there were only three, and the number is not enough." Zhao Shi's eyes unconsciously glanced at Chu Linfeng. It was obvious that he was the one who had this concern.
Jiang Xin said that it was not a big problem: "It's just that Fifth Brother has many enemies, so just let him wear the mask alone."
Zhao Shi suddenly realized and gave all three masks to Chu Linfeng.
Chu Linfeng didn't answer: "Don't look down on me, okay? I have many enemies, but none of them can beat me, don't be scared!"
Everyone followed him into Zhongzhou City with half belief and half doubt. As soon as they entered the city gate, they noticed that many people at the gate were looking at them.
They looked surprised and quickly crushed the jade pendant.
Several rays of light shot out from the broken jade pendant and flew towards the major families in the city.
Shen Muse looked at it curiously: "Wow, which high-value wanted criminal has been discovered? The people who are following him are busy sending messages back to report the news."
He subconsciously looked at Chu Linfeng, hoping to get an answer from him. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw Chu Linfeng's proud face: "They are all here to stare at me."
Shen Muse: “…” He still underestimated the fifth junior brother.
Zhao Shi couldn't help but take out his mask again: "Fifth Junior Brother, why don't you just wear the mask."
Chu Linfeng held his head high and said, "I won't. I'm upright and honest, and I won't try to hide or evade anything!"
Jiang Xiao admired him very much: "Then do you want to take out the sect's identity jade token?"
Chu Linfeng covered his mouth with his hand, looked around nervously, and told Jiang Xiao in a low voice: "If you reveal your identity as a disciple of Tianshui Sect here, you will be thrown out of Zhongzhou City overnight."
Jiang Xiao widened his eyes in surprise: "Is it so serious? I thought he was just shouting and killing us like before."
Others: “…”
His Majesty the Demon Lord has such weird values. It's obviously more serious to shout for war and kill, okay?
Fighting with weapons is strictly prohibited in Zhongzhou City, but there are dueling arenas in the four corners of the city. As long as you sign a life and death agreement and pay the duel fee, you can use the arena for the competition.
People in and outside the city can also spend spirit stones to buy tickets to watch the game. The ticket prices vary depending on the quality of the viewing location.
In addition, there are gambling houses outside the duel arena where people bet on which side will win.
You don’t need to ask to know that these are businesses that are crowded with customers.
Zhongzhou City is located in the center of the continent. It is very prosperous with many cultivators traveling from north to south.
Situations like today's being followed happen frequently, and the residents of the city are used to it. They can't wait to follow Chu Linfeng and others to watch the fun.
After all, being followed is very common, but being followed by so many noble families at the same time is the first time.
This must be a big and exciting event.
