The gaze of the Huoshi City Lord couldn't help but narrow slightly.
Ever since the Lava Fairy Palace came into being, he had done his best to block the news, and he also expected that it would attract the attention of the dynasty's top leaders in the future.
But I didn't expect it to come so quickly! Fei Si had all kinds of thoughts in his mind: "Could someone have deliberately leaked the information?"
"The Zheng family and the Zhou family are unlikely to do so. They would rather gain benefits from the Lava Fairy Palace."
"Could it be that the Ning family, seeing that they were lagging behind in their progress, simply brought in outsiders?"
Seeing the two of them remain silent, Zhu Xuanji chuckled and said, "Meng Kui, your Meng family controls Ziyan City, Qingshuang City, and Tutai City. Do you still want to control Huoshi Xiancheng?"
"I'll tell you the truth. Five hundred years ago, the royal family already knew that there was a lava palace buried in this mountain. Why do you think the royal family didn't open the palace?"
Faith was stunned.
The city lord Meng Kui was also a little moved.
Zhu Xuanji was a detective and also a royal envoy, so he would not speak nonsense.
But if that is the case, everything Meng Kui has done and planned so far may just be a joke!
Zhu Xuanji sighed, "Lava Palace shouldn't have appeared at this time. There must be something fishy going on! That's why I was sent here by the royal family and the Divine Constable Department to investigate."
"This is the decree of the Immortal Dynasty."
Meng Kui could no longer sit still, so he stood up, bent over, and took the decree with both hands.
After reading it once and confirming that it was correct, Meng Kui asked again: "What instructions does the envoy have?"
Zhu Xuanji said: "I want to find out the real reason why the Immortal Palace came into being, and let Chi Dun cooperate with me in the investigation and visit first."
"I will tell you if I need your cooperation in the future."
Facing Meng Kui, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, he was not polite at all.
Meng Kui immediately summoned Chi Dun and introduced him to Zhu Xuanji.
After a moment, Fei Si looked at the backs of Chi and Zhu as they left, and said worriedly, "Sir, I didn't expect the royal family to send someone so soon!"
"The royal family seems to know the secret of Lava Fairy Palace."
The city lord pondered and said, "In the past, the Sanzong Master and the Emperor of Nandou had a relationship, and their relationship was very close at one time."
"It's not surprising that the royal family knows some secrets."
"I think Zhu Xuanji came here for investigation and has no intention of interfering in the dispute over the Lava Immortal Palace."
“Everything remains the same.”
Fei Si accepted the order respectfully: "Yes."
After he stepped back, the clouds and mist covered Mengkui again.
The Lord of Huoshi City finally stopped concealing his expression and turned very gloomy.
Although the Meng family is powerful, they are just a large family in the Nandou Kingdom.
Although Meng Kui is strong, as a Nascent Soul, he is in the mountain city and is essentially just a city defender.
Meng Kui looked around and for the first time felt that the surroundings were filled with thick clouds and mist, and were somewhat depressing.
The heads of the Zhou family and the Zheng family met in secret.
"Brother Zhou, not long ago, your family was attacked again, which made our clan very nervous and we have been on guard for many days!" The head of the Zheng family said deliberately.
The Zhou family head smiled slightly.
Zhou Zhu had entered and exited the Lava Fairy Palace before, and Zhou Zeshen had caused a misunderstanding. Since there was already some movement, the Zhou family elders discussed it and decided to play along and staged an enemy attack in an attempt to deceive other families and buy themselves more time.
Looking back now, although some time was gained, it was not of much use.
Because the level of Lava Fairy Palace is too difficult! After the Zhou and Zheng families analyzed the information brought back by Zhou Zhu and Zheng Jian, they found that only by working together can they pass the level.
Therefore, they took the initiative to approach the City Lord's Mansion, wanting to cooperate, but were rejected by Meng Chong.
Once they were rejected, the two families could no longer sit still.
What does this mean? This means that the City Lord's Mansion is in chaos, and there is no need for cooperation. It can succeed on its own!
It's truly a super talent.
Otherwise, they have no hope of winning.
The head of the Zhou family sighed: "The Meng family is a big family in our country, and they have complete control over three immortal cities."
"Our two families are not as good as the Meng family. We only live in the same city."
"Let's not talk about the inheritance of Lava Fairy Palace. Once Meng Chong becomes the master of Huoshi Fairy City, and Lava Fairy Palace wants to suppress Huoshi, then the Meng family will have the most sufficient reason to insert more forces."
"By then, how will our two families cope?"
"Recently, every time I think about this, I feel deeply worried."
These words immediately resonated with the head of the Zheng family: "Only by unity can we have a chance of victory."
The Zhou family leader added: "In my opinion, it would be better to bring the Ning family in as well. Compared with the City Lord's Mansion, there is a greater hope if the three of us join forces."
The head of the Zheng family thought for a while and nodded heavily: "Okay, let's bring the Ning family here!"
"The family remains unchanged, but the city lord changes with time."

"Huo Shi Xian City is already crowded with three families, we can't let the Meng family intervene and move in!"
The head of the Ning family paced in his courtyard, feeling anxious.
When his servants came to announce the good news, he clapped his hands and said with a smile, "It's done!"
The head of the Ning family felt that his family was lagging behind, so he took the initiative to bribe the head of the Zhou family in order to form an alliance.
The envoy sent by the head of the Zhou family brought not only good news, but also good intelligence.
The head of the Ning family was shocked: "It turns out that the way to test Qi Refining cultivators has changed so dramatically! Quick, go check, what level of cultivation does Ning Xiaohui have now?"
The attendant quickly reported: "There are two floors."
"What about the others?"
The attendant replied: "A few have reached the first floor, and most have just finished dispersing their energy."
"Slow, too slow!" The head of the Ning family was so anxious that he almost stamped his feet. He quickly gave orders to increase the amount of rewards to encourage the repair personnel to practice hard day and night.
The head of the Ning family was deeply worried: "We, the Ning family, migrated from outside and are considered outsiders."
"We need to seize this opportunity with Lava Fairy Palace and reach cooperation with the other two companies to build closer relations."
"The city lord will step down, but the Zhou and Zheng families will remain."
"Our Ning family has always been at the bottom of the three major families. Only by taking one step at a time can we have the opportunity to grow stronger."
Monkey Head Gang.
The current gang leader Yuan Er summoned all the elders.
His expression was stern and his tone was heavy: "The Explosive Monkey, everyone saw it."
"It's too threatening!"
"Therefore, during this Fire Persimmon Festival, even if there are demon cultivators threatening our lives, we must go all out and show our value to the higher-ups of Fire Persimmon Immortal City!"
"Otherwise, the business of picking persimmons will be taken away by these fake monkeys."
The elders were fully aware of the critical situation and immediately agreed with Yuan Er's decision.
Yuan Er saw that they had reached a consensus and showed a hint of joy: "We must not give up the pillar business. If we keep it under control, our Monkey Head Gang will have the possibility to develop further."
"After overcoming this difficulty, the Monkey Head Gang will grow stronger in the future and may become the fifth force in Huoshi Xiancheng."
Before he finished speaking, a gang member suddenly rushed in, looking anxious: "Master, elders, this is not good."
"Our monkeys were poisoned and many of them died!"
The gang leaders stood up together, shocked and angry.
"Who is causing trouble for us?"
“He deserves to die!”
