With a ripping sound!
Chris felt a wave of heat hit him, followed by a chill.
His clothes had turned to ashes, and not only that, his skin had turned black at some point, as if it had been scorched by smoke and fire.
In addition, other skills have also changed one by one, but Su Qing couldn't quite figure them out in a short time, so he didn't study them too deeply for the time being.
Chris looked at his darkened self and felt terrible. His expression gradually turned hostile as he stared intently at Su Qing.
"I need an explanation!"
He gritted his teeth. What was burned to ashes was not only his clothes, but also some of his body hair. His hair and eyebrows were fine, but the rest of his body was burned clean, and it seemed unlikely that it would grow back.
In addition, there is the black skin on his body, which looks like it has been scorched by smoke and fire, but it is actually a layer of skin that has been burned.
That wasn't a blackness that could be washed off; he had to undergo a molting process. Until then, he had to live with this black skin.
Just thinking about it makes me feel a bit overwhelmed.
Su Qing, however, didn't care at all: "Don't you think you have a strange kind of beauty right now?"
Chris was speechless. He could see the strange shape, but he really couldn't see what was beautiful about himself.
He clenched his fist, wanting to fight this guy, but after comparing their strengths, he gave up the idea of potentially getting beaten up.
Within three days, the news reached Lily Territory, and Lily Territory sent people to take over the city.
Two brilliant individuals, both possessing the strength of the fifth level of the Brilliant Realm, have arrived. From today onwards, the management of Rock City will be entrusted to them.
Relatively speaking, this is already considered a very lucrative position, and the two of them had to go to great lengths to obtain it.
After all, the Rock City produces all kinds of minerals, and serving as the city lord here for more than ten years would definitely make one very wealthy.
Of course, what they didn't know was that most of the ore in those veins had been taken by Su Qing, and the remaining ore could only be mined for another seven or eight months at most. By then, all the mines would probably be exhausted, and at that point, these two would probably be too heartbroken to even cry.
These two people came not only to manage the city, but also to bring Su Qing a treasure.
A fiery red gem, named Burning Love, is one of the three gems that can activate skills, but Su Qing wants the shield.
However, considering that there was still one city that could be captured, Su Qing temporarily abandoned the idea of exchanging it.
After handing over all the affairs, big and small, Su Qing led Chris to the next city.
City of Blazing Flames!
The name itself suggests extreme heat, and in fact, the city is built right next to a volcano.
What are you planning to do?
Chris spoke up, expressing his curiosity about the dragon's next plans.
"Is it the same as before?"
He worried that the dragon would continue to shamelessly treat him as its son.
Su Qing shook her head: "These two cities are somewhat different."
While answering Chris, she fiddled with the red gem in her hand.
The skill tree in the system flashes, and new skills can be unlocked at any time.
Su Qing hadn't made up his mind yet because he had a bad feeling after this skill upgrade.
After much deliberation, Su Qing couldn't resist the temptation of curiosity and chose to light it up.
Su Qing was stunned when her wealth points plummeted by a million in a single, decisive move.
But he quickly realized that after the system upgrade, the wealth points required to unlock new skills had increased tenfold, but the power of the newly unlocked skills was equally terrifying.
He looked at the skill with great interest: "Lovers' Eyes".
Su Qing's entire dragon is acting up again. Why are there strange skill names again? But after reading the skill descriptions, she is speechless.
It resembles the face of a capitalist, except that skill is repulsive, while this skill can make people feel good.
Looking into his eyes, you can see the image of your beloved in them and fall into a brief state of infatuation.
Su Qing considered it for a long time, but still didn't dare to use Chris to experience the skill.
Chris frowned, somewhat confused by what Su Qing had said earlier, since he didn't know what the difference was between the two cities.
As Su Qing flipped through the information she had recently received, her brows furrowed and then relaxed.
"The city lord of Rock City was seduced by a woman's beauty, while the city lord of Blazing City contacted the Purple Fire Mercenary Group to launch a coup and imprison his father, the former city lord."
"So the other side is definitely on the side of the Purple Fire Mercenary Group, and what we need to do is to kill this new city lord and support the old city lord to take over again."
"So I'll have to trouble you again to infiltrate the City Lord's Mansion!"
The two would need to split up. Su Qing instructed Chris to find a way to infiltrate the new city lord's inner circle. This would provide him with firsthand information, and if necessary, a counterattack would be much more effective.
Su Qing herself planned to find a way to rescue the old city lord first.
It has been quite some time since the new city lord seized power and imprisoned the old city lord, and it is likely that the old city lord has suffered a great deal.
According to the information provided by the female lord of Lily Territory, this old city lord was extremely loyal to Lily Territory, except that he had an unfilial son.
After flying for thousands of miles and traveling for most of the day, the two finally saw the City of Blazing Flames.
As in legend, it was built on a dormant volcano, and its terrifying fire energy is extremely abundant.
Chris's eyes lit up when he saw this. This place was perfect for him to cultivate. He also had fire-attribute battle qi, and with long-term cultivation, he would definitely make rapid progress.
Su Qing, with his keen eyesight, quickly locked onto the City Lord's Mansion and immediately spotted the young man sitting in the main seat of the hall.
He was in his early twenties, handsome, and had a gentle demeanor, but there was a hint of menace between his brows, which was definitely not as friendly as he appeared.
Su Qing glanced at it only once before quickly refocusing her attention and beginning to search for the old city lord.
Although the new city lord has committed acts such as coup d'état and imprisoning his father, he probably wouldn't dare to kill the old city lord so easily.
After all, he had only recently taken over, and most people in the city still trusted the old city lord. If he dared to kill his own father, his position as city lord would definitely be unstable.
Of course, nothing is absolute. Perhaps this guy secretly killed the old city lord somewhere and then found a way to keep the news a secret.
Therefore, Su Qing searched very thoroughly, especially underground.
Fortunately, his clairvoyance had been upgraded, expanding his field of vision and allowing him to see more clearly. He quickly found a secret room where an old man was imprisoned, his entire body covered in chains that completely sealed off his fighting spirit.
