On the way back to the city, Yan Chongcan listened to Cui Li's orders and hunted many monsters for him, finally fulfilling his duty as a team member.Since Si Jue couldn't use his spiritual power, he followed them lazily all the time, looking very relieved.He had already hunted more than a dozen flame foxes before meeting the group of people in Fenyingtang, and before parting, he even divided a few of Cui Li, and they made an appointment to meet again after selling the monsters.

They didn't live in the Zilai Building anymore, but found another remote residence so that Si Jue could recuperate from his injuries.Yintai City has everything you need, and there are even several doctors with amazing skills. Two high-grade spirit stones can invite them to walk for a while, and treat them with heart.The medicinal materials to be used are basically available in the city, and the high-grade elixir is laid out in various shops like Chinese cabbage, which caught Yan Chongcan's eyes several times.

Gu Yushu also came to visit several times, and Si Jue treated him the same as before, as if he had never been assassinated by him at all.

The two of them knew each other clearly, but they were kind, hypocritical and submissive, which made the corners of Yan Chongcan's mouth twitch.

"He can't hurt me directly," Si Jue explained while drinking medicine, "Silver City also has rules, he can't do it."

"But why did he kill you?"

Si Jue's eyes sank, he raised his head and drank the bitter medicine, "The past."

At that time, Gu Yushu was still well-known in the book of life and death in the cultivation world.

"He is proficient in the art of soul, and he is good at seducing and controlling souls. His methods are cruel, and he often makes people tossed between life and death without detachment."

People all say that life and death are played with souls, and life is a child's play. If he wants to resurrect people, he will be resurrected, and if he wants to make people go to hell, he will go straight to the eighteenth floor.

Yan Chongcan shivered. He suddenly remembered what Si Jue said that day, "Si Jue has died countless times", and asked dryly, "Then you...has he ever treated you like this?"

"It's different," Si Jue touched the top of his head, "I'm the only one who is different."

Why is it different, but he didn't say anything.

He seems to always have a limit, and if he continues to speak, he will reveal some shocking secrets, so he is stuck at the boundary of what can be said, and he will never open his mouth no matter what.And it is this boundary that makes people feel that he is trusting himself.

Yan Chongcan thought about it in his mind. Ten years ago, Si Jue was only a young child. At that time, Gu Yushu was already a great power. What kind of intersection could they have?

By the time Si Jue's injury was fully healed under the nourishment of various natural materials and earth treasures, the birthday of the Lord of Yintai City had also arrived.

They picked three flame foxes of the best quality, packed them up and took them to the City Lord's Mansion.

On this day, Yintai City was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the already bright candle lights doubled, making it really a city that never sleeps as bright as day.The major restaurants and shops have also greatly reduced prices, especially the property of the city lord is almost free, and the items in the store can be chosen by anyone.

The guards were as dense as the lights, and every ten steps, you could meet a guard with eagle eyes patrolling. There was a carnival in the city, and countless horses and horses rushed from outside the city, all of them were powerful people who came to participate in this grand event.

It is extremely difficult to enter the City Lord's Mansion without an invitation. Yan Chongcan has already encountered dozens of monks who were thrown out during the queue.

It's hard to see people with such a grand style nowadays.

To be honest, their flame foxes were not that rare compared to most of the people who donated treasures.The Nascent Soul Daoist in front of them was asked to leave with a drop of Phoenix blood, which made the people behind them panic even more.

"Please put the gift on the stage." The guard said coldly.

Yan Chongcan came back to his senses, and put the three flame foxes in front of them.The fur of the fiery red fox is smooth, and the three tails are like plucked fireworks, which makes people dazzled and fascinated.

The guards are also people who know how to appraise treasures, and they can tell at a glance that the flame fox is a high-level monster.However, he still shook his head, as if he felt that it was still not enough for the city lord's birthday banquet, so he planned to let them leave.The guard at the side hurriedly pulled his arm, and said in a low voice: "The city lord likes the fur of the flame fox, let them in."

Gu Yushu didn't lie to them, Yan Chongcan was surprised in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, thanked him for taking the two invitations, and went in with Si Jue under the envious eyes of everyone.

The City Lord's Mansion is not so much a mansion, but more like a palace. When you open the door, the Baihe River flows around the palace. Jade pavement is used as a flying bridge, and longan is decorated with sky lanterns, like dragons flying in the sky.The palace is divided into three halls, six side halls, and eight small halls, which are very magnificent like stars arching the moon.At this time, the crowd is bustling, and the maids are walking on light clouds, serving the guests back and forth, and the streamers are connected, just like the banquet of the gods in the storybook.

Yan Chongcan quietly looked at the black-armored guards guarding the mansion. The armor on them had an ancient aura. After only a few more glances, he suddenly felt a resounding echo in his heart, as if thousands of troops and horses were stepping forward in unison. The mind was shocked.

"Be careful." Si Jue's hand gently touched his eyes, the illusion dissipated, calming him instantly.

Walking into the main hall, there are dozens of long tables on both sides of the hall, all the way to the outside of the hall. Some people who came early have already found their seats and sat down to enjoy the wine.The aura was overflowing, and many monks showed intoxicated expressions.

Comparing the number on the invitation, they sat near the door. Although the food in front of them was not as good as the chief, it was still a rare delicacy.The monk sitting across the table from them was eating a mouth full of greasy food at this time, and there was no respect for a monk at all with a sip of meat and wine.

Si Jue quietly closed his eyes and rested his mind, pretending that there was no one in front of him, and there were no delicacies from mountains and seas, only himself in the state of penance.Yan Chongcan was used to his innocence and asceticism, but the monk who was eating so much was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that the high-grade spirit rabbit braised pork in his mouth was not so delicious, Chao Sijue pouted angrily: "This fellow Taoist doesn't want to eat it. ?”

"Haha, compared to this, I don't know what this banquet is like? When will the city lord come out?" Yan Chongcan changed the subject haha, thinking that it's none of your business whether others eat or not.

"It won't start until half an hour later, and the city lord will come out after half an hour of the banquet. There will be a big opportunity at that time." The monk took a sip of his wine and was in high spirits.

Yan Chongcan asked curiously: "Big chance?"

"At first glance, you are here for the first time. Do you come here just to celebrate the city lord's birthday?"

Seeing Yan Chongcan's blank face, he explained triumphantly: "It's for chance! Look around, who are there in this hall? Here, the red-robed man in front, Tong Tian pointed to Luo Yuan Tianzun, and the blue-clothed fairy beside him , Rejuvenation Immortal Sword Si Lang Dizun, Ghost Eye Chen San, Ten Thousand Gambling Gold Liu Tong... which one is not a big shot?"

Follow his fingers to look one by one, hearing these thunderous names, Yan Chongcan is also a little excited.These are all the people he has read on "Cultivation of the Realm" Weekly. In the virtual world, they usually rely on this publication to relieve their boredom. They did not expect to meet real people this time.

"Senior must be a well-known person." Yan Chongcan stared at him expectantly.

"I...it's not a big deal, just call me Chuan Lang."

When Yan Chongcan heard the name "ah", he grasped his hand, his face flushed, "Senior...Senior is the editor of the weekly magazine!" No wonder he knew most of the monks present like the back of his hand.

Ji Lang smiled, "Little friend actually knows me."

"Senior, did you come here to collect new things?"

"Naturally. Why do you think so many people gather together? You must have been in Yintai City for some time, but have you ever seen a force stronger than Yintai City? Although it is in the dark, it can also It is precisely because of being in the dark that more resources are obtained. From spirit stones, to magic weapons, to people, it is everything. And the city lord naturally becomes the supreme person. He alone is in charge of wealth that can overturn the world. Many people are flocking to him. His birthday banquet is the only day he entertains guests every year, and this is the time when he recruits monks." When Zhuan Lang said this, he deliberately stopped talking and let Yan Chongcan imagine for himself.

"Senior said that today is the opportunity for everyone to share a piece of the pie..."

Zhuan Lang tore another piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Exactly. Even one percent of Yintai City's rights are enough to make those who cover the sky with one hand salivate."

Yintai City has existed for so many years, once a year, how many talents are recruited... Yan Chongcan dare not think about it anymore.

"This is a chance. If you are lucky, you will be able to go straight to Qingyun and reach the sky in one step." Jilang's fat face trembled with excitement.

Having said so much, he looked at Si Jue who had been silent all this time, suddenly "huh" and said in surprise: "Isn't this Jue Yun Kuai Jian Si Jue? I just recognized it."

Yan Chongcan: "..."

How could he have forgotten that he knew that Si Jue had seen it from the weekly magazine, and that Ji Lang really knew people in the realm of comprehension too well.

"It's not easy to know about him. It's hard to see him. Why don't you tell me something about him." Zhuan Lang smiled greasy.

Yan Chongcan touched his nose: "I'm not very familiar with him, so I don't know much about it."

When he said he was unfamiliar, he felt something touched his leg, and looked down, Si Jue was still sitting upright, motionless.

During chatting time, the long tables were almost full, with only a few inconspicuous vacancies.And those great powers also returned to the positions closest to the main seat, and began to exchange cups with each other.

The maids entered one after another, bringing them new dishes and wine, and the fairy music was played, resounding throughout Yintai City.

The hall fell silent in unison.

Yan Chongcan also held his breath, Si Jue slowly opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the chief seat.

In the eyes of everyone, a tall figure walked slowly from the inner door, the subdued coercion was still astonishing, and Yan Chongcan's palms were sweating instantly.

He heard Zhuan Lang say that the cultivation base of the city lord is close to ascending, which can be regarded as the pinnacle of the world.

The man was dressed in a dignified black robe, but there was no head on the high collar. Instead, there was a cloud of black smoke, which must be some means of concealing his real body.

The black clothes and the black armor of the guards seem to come from the same source, but it is more imposing than the armor. Just walking like this, it feels like a towering mountain is weighing heavily on it, making people breathe carefully.

Obviously it was just a cloud of black smoke, but Yan Chongcan clearly felt that his majestic eyes were scanning the audience, and even stayed on him for a moment.If it wasn't for the tension in his consciousness, he might have thought it was just his illusion.

The city lord raised his wine glass and said in a loud voice: "It's my fortune to come from a long way to welcome you to Yintai City. I will offer three glasses of wine first, so that all of you can drink to the full!"

The voice is thick and piercing through the mind.

Yan Chongcan paused when he picked up the wine, and almost dropped the glass to the ground in shock.

This voice, this black robe... It was clearly the man who tried to control his soul when he fell into a hallucination in the underground palace.
