After hearing this, Lu Chen's expression softened a little and he glanced at the things on the table, "We are just cooperating. If we fail, we will fail. If we succeed, we will succeed. If it brings harm to our family, I hope the Seventh City Lord will say less.
I said that people have reverse scales, if you don’t believe it, you can try it!”
After that, he ignored the complicated expressions of the Seventh City Lord, grabbed the reward given by the Eighth City Lord, turned around and walked towards the stand where Uncle Wen and the others were.
"This boy is not simple. It is not easy to be so calm in the face of so many powerful martial arts masters, and dare to say such words!" The Fifth City Lord looked at Lu Chen's leaving back, with a flash of approval in his eyes.
"This kind of person is either a lunatic or an idiot. Which kind do you think he will be?" The second city lord suddenly spoke. Several city lords were stunned when they heard this, and then looked horrified.
Naturally, Lu Chen didn't know what the city lords were thinking. He returned to his seat and saw that the eight city lords didn't move. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Just now, he was completely betting on whether the other party was afraid of him.
Now it seems that he made the right bet!
"What the eight city lords are planning this time is certainly not small. I wonder what kind of place it is with such weird restrictions. No one above the martial arts level is allowed to enter. It looks like an ordinary thing, but if it is really an ordinary treasure, the eight city lords will also
It won’t be so strenuous, you’ll have to ask the teacher when the time comes.”
Having made up his mind, Lu Chen stopped thinking and stared at the duel arena. According to what the Seven City Lords said, there should be eight strong warriors who will go there this time. With such a selection, there is no doubt that those who will go there should be peak warriors.
, taking risks with a group of strong men of the same level who don’t know the details, naturally you have to be careful. If you want to find out the details, the best way is undoubtedly actual combat.
When the remaining seven deadpools were chosen, Lu Chen shook his head. There were only two that he could be afraid of. They both had six consecutive victories. Such people were also geniuses in Gangnan City, but compared to Lu Chen, they were not even a bit different.
The entire duel field selection lasted for more than an hour and finally came to an end. There were constant boos in the duel field. Although we did not see the fight between the eight city lords, this kind of selection was definitely the first time in Gangnan City, especially when the eight city lords were taken out.
The remuneration made countless onlookers jealous.
"Let's go, Uncle Wen!" Lu Chen stood up and left the duel with a group of businessmen.
"This is my residence. If any of the city lords have anything to do, come here and find me!" Passing a jade slip to the guard guarding the door, Lu Chen and several businessmen disappeared into the crowd.
Returning to his residence, he glanced at the entire inn and closed the door, "Teacher, what do you think these city lords are planning?"
Lu Chen suddenly said, in terms of knowledge, there are probably not many people in the entire Southwest who can compare with Mr. Ge.
"It's hard to say. You can't predict it without seeing anyone. There are many ruins, let alone Teacher. Even some ancient forces dare not break in at will." Mr. Ge shook his head.
"Doesn't that mean we can only take one step at a time?" Lu Chen frowned.
"That's not necessarily the case. You have your own advantages. Now, you'd better check your body carefully!"
Hearing that Mr. Ge mentioned his body, Lu Chen's whole body was shocked. When he came out of the ground, he found that his body seemed to be a little abnormal. Sometimes he got angry easily, and sometimes his body felt like it was not his own. It was very unreal.
feeling.
The power of the soul enveloped the whole body, and every corner of the body was searched, but nothing abnormal was found, which puzzled Lu Chen.
"Teacher, what's going on?"
Mr. Ge shook his head, with a puzzled look on his face, "A mysterious force seems to have suddenly appeared in your body. Logically speaking, it is impossible for you to kill a warrior and subvert a strong man with one move, but you did it, and your body
The black flames appearing on the surface make me feel a little uneasy."
Hearing this, Lu Chen's face was solemn. He noticed something unusual when dealing with the mercenaries. Unexpectedly, Mr. Ge was more careful and even observed the black inflammation on the surface of his body.
"Although the combat power has been greatly improved in a short period of time, I can't control my body. Everything in the future is unknown, especially the black flame..."
Speaking of Black Flame, Lu Chen suddenly thought of a place, "Magrone!"
"My teacher has thought about this for a long time. Is it because of this that you became a demon body?"
Lu Chen shook his head, "If it's a demonic body that makes me lose myself while gaining great strength, then what's the point?"
"If it's a demonic body, it's not necessarily a bad thing. Remember to suppress the evil thoughts in your heart and maintain the existence of good. You have the ancestral ring and practice the calming techniques given to you by your master, and there won't be much of a problem."
"Yes!" Lu Chen nodded, suddenly raised his head and looked out the window, "Who is it?"
Outside the window, a black shadow flashed past and disappeared into the night. It was so fast that it was about to completely merge into the night.
boom!
The figure flickered, and Lu Chen punched the window.
A loud bang!
The wooden windows were shattered into pieces, and the whole inn was shaken. Noises were heard one after another. I looked up at the roof of the inn, and saw a black shadow gradually disappearing.
"Seeking death!" He yelled and stomped the ground with the sole of his foot. Lu Chen chased the black shadow that was about to disappear. After leaving the inn, the black shadow kept passing through the streets and alleys. For Gangnan City, the black shadow in front seemed to be
Very familiar.
"Teacher, to kill or not to kill?" Lu Chen asked in his mind.
"He should be luring you out, and the real mastermind should be behind, etc!"
Hearing this, Lu Chen temporarily suppressed the murderous intention in his heart and followed closely, "I want to see who it is. I was targeted as soon as I arrived in Gangnan City!"
The black shadow was extremely fast. Half a quarter of an hour later, it appeared by a river. It suddenly jumped and disappeared on the river. With a gritted teeth, Lu Chen also headed towards the river.
Wow!
The calm river surface suddenly stirred up waves. Two figures jumped to the shore one after another and glanced around. Lu Chen couldn't help but frown.
"This person is very familiar with Gangnan City. He must be from Gangnan City. I have just arrived here and am unfamiliar with the place. Who would spend so much effort to lure me out of the city?"
Lu Chen was puzzled, and his feet suddenly increased speed, always keeping a certain distance from the figure in front of him.
"kindness?"
The black shadow in front of him suddenly stopped. Lu Chen was surprised and looked around. Apart from the wilderness, this place didn't seem to be a good place to attack people. It was a flat plain with no obstructions.
"Lu Chen?" The black figure in front suddenly said.
"Do you know me? Who are you? Why did you bring me here?" Lu Chen was surprised.
"First, it doesn't matter who I am, second, you are not qualified to ask me questions, and third, I know you are from the Lu family in Gucheng!"
Lu Chen patted his forehead, turned around and left. He was too lazy to talk nonsense to this kind of person.
"You have to think clearly. If you leave, first, you will die, and second, your tribe will bury you with you!"
Hearing this, the figure did not stop, walking step by step towards Gangnancheng, suppressing the anger in his heart, "Now, everyone wants to use my clansmen to blackmail me, so I have to find time to settle things!" Lu Chen made a plan in his heart.
If the bottom line is touched, they will either not take action or do it to make them afraid.
"Tsk, tsk, that's such a big deal, I said, those eight guys are not fuel-efficient lamps!" A strange voice sounded, and two tree vines suddenly appeared where Lu Chen had just walked, and the vines squirmed, condensing a
An old man.
"Old Ghost Teng, you talk so much nonsense. We have been suppressed by those eight guys for so many years. Can't we do some damage this time?"
"To cause destruction? Is it that easy?" The condensed old man frowned and asked.
"It wasn't easy at first, but I happened to go to Gangnan City today and learned a lot in the duel arena."
"Harvest?" The old man was puzzled, and then looked at the young man who stopped, "You mean him?"
The old man looked at Lu Chen, and Lu Chen naturally looked at the old man. It was not because of anything else, but the way in which the old man appeared was too strange. His body was condensed from trees and vines. This method was too strange, and Lu Chen had never heard of it.
The old man looks very old, with snow-white hair, and the top of his head has long since fallen bald. Even his eyebrows are pulled down to his face. Coupled with the fact that he is wearing a blue robe, at first glance, he looks like an immortal, but Lu Chen
After watching it for a moment, I felt that this old man was a bit strange, giving people the illusion that his life was about to be exhausted, but he was still full of vitality.
"Warrior realm?" Looking at the young man staring at him, the old man was stunned and made a sound of surprise, then turned to look at the black shadow behind him.
"I don't know much about this, but the letter sent back by my subordinates was about this boy. He shocked the entire duel field and even whispered to those eight guys for a long time."
"Where are your men?" Old Ghost Teng was puzzled.
"Dead!"
When Old Ghost Teng heard that he was dead, he sighed, with a trace of killing intent flashing in his eyes.
"These eight guys are really getting more and more vigilant. Do they really want to guard Gangnan City and prevent us from entering?" Old Ghost Teng said, sarcasm flashed across his withered face. Obviously, he was very worried about what the eight city lords had done.
It's looked down upon.
"Old Ghost Teng, where are all the nonsense? This kid is very crazy. Let him taste pain and happiness today." The black shadow looked at Lu Chen with some anger, and walked forward step by step, with a vague feeling.
The pressure came upon me.
"The realm of a great martial artist?" The pressure coming at him became heavier and heavier, and Lu Chen looked solemn.
At the level of a great martial artist, this person is comparable to the eight great city lords. "No wonder it makes the eight great city lords vigilant!"
"Boy, this village leader really wants to see what kind of ability you have that can shock the entire duel field. Those eight guys must value you very much. If you die like this, hehe!"
The black shadow laughed, reached out and took off the bamboo hat on his head, and looked at Lu Chen with a ferocious expression.
"Boy, I blame you for your bad luck. I have killed many people from Gangnan City for this scar on my face. Anyone who works for those eight guys should die!"
"The matters between you have nothing to do with me. Taking people's money and eliminating disasters is just for the benefits they give. If you have enough benefits, it is not impossible to help you at critical moments.
.”
Lu Chen's eyes swayed. He didn't want to get into a fight between the two sides. The forces that could challenge the eight major cities were not something he could deal with.
The only solution for now is to delay and find a way to get out of here.
