Long Chen walked all the way and soon arrived at the border town that Qi Hao mentioned. There was a teleportation array here.
But this teleportation array was just a small teleportation array. Long Chen rode three small teleportation arrays and one large teleportation array before arriving at Daxia City, the ancient imperial capital of Daxia.
The teleportation array is located outside the Imperial City. It is guarded by special guards. By the time they get here, the guards are all strong in the Forging Platform Realm, and the leader is a king-level strongman.
After Long Chen paid a certain transfer fee and showed his identity plate again, he was able to enter the imperial capital.
After entering Daxia City, Long Chen couldn't help but be shocked. It was indeed one of the four ancient kingdoms in Zhongzhou. Within the city with a radius of thousands of miles, countless buildings soared into the sky, luxurious and simple.
What shocked Long Chen the most was that there were countless formation runes on every building here, shining brightly and exuding terrifying pressure. The defense power of just one building was extremely terrifying.
Not to mention the solid city wall outside.
As the imperial capital of the Kingdom of Daxia, Daxia City is a restricted area. Flying is not allowed and everyone needs to walk on foot.
Long Chen walked along the way and saw countless powerful people, even the powerful ones at the level of the hospital master, walking aimlessly on the road.
Masters of the hospital are not rare. King-level experts can easily walk around. There are as many as dogs under the forging platform. Long Chen's horizons have been opened.
In this imperial capital of Great Xia, these figures who are enough to cause a sensation in the outside world are wandering around here like ordinary people.
Long Chen walked straight along the central main road and watched all the way. He found that many of the buildings here had the signs of such-and-such gate and so-and-so courtyard hanging on them.
In fact, these signs are the liaison offices of various major sects in the Imperial Capital of Daxia. Many sects have relationships with the Imperial Capital of Daxia. They can sell and purchase items in the Imperial Capital of Daxia, but all transactions are taxed.
of.
Unfortunately, Long Chen didn't know that Xuantian Dao Sect had no contact point in the Great Xia Empire, let alone business cooperation.
There was one many years ago, but because Xuantian Daozong has been unable to make ends meet in recent years, it produces products without special features, and the store fees here are too expensive. If you support it here, you can only lose money and simply quit.
Long Chen asked someone to inquire, and after walking forward for half an hour, an intersection appeared. Not far to the right, he saw a dome-shaped building, and a smile appeared on Long Chen's face.
"Huayun Auction House"
Five large golden characters caught Long Chen's eyes. This was the target Long Chen was looking for.
After entering Huayun Auction House, Long Chen directly showed the jade token given to him by Zheng Wenlong, and soon the general manager personally met Long Chen in the secret room.
This auction house happened to be a branch that Zheng Wenlong was in charge of. Long Chen knew that these were all Zheng Wenlong's confidants, so he didn't waste any time and directly asked about the whereabouts of the First Demon Clan.
Soon Long Chen got a map with the coordinates marked on it and found a casting shop only a few streets away from Huayun Auction House.
The foundry is only responsible for the business of creating some treasure-level products and below. In a place like Daxia Empire, which only takes high-end routes, it is obviously difficult to support such a small business, and the business is somewhat bleak.
However, this foundry, in addition to making items below the treasure level, also customizes various furniture. The craftsmanship is quite exquisite. From time to time, prominent figures come to place orders. The business seems to be doing well.
"Senior, how can I help you?" Long Chen had just entered the casting shop when a girl who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old came up to her and said enthusiastically.
Long Chen looked at the girl and saw an inexplicable aura deep in the girl's eyes. Long Chen smiled slightly. Yes, this was the unique aura of the First Demon Clan, and Long Chen was very familiar with it.
"Mississippi"
Long Chen saw that there were no other customers in the foundry, and said softly to the girl.
The girl's eyes were full of shock, but she quickly calmed down and said to Long Chen: "Follow me!"
Long Chen followed the girl into the interior of the casting shop, passed through the warehouse filled with various weapons, and appeared in a larger space. There were dozens of craftsmen here sweating profusely and hammering on the iron tools in their hands. They should be casting something.
.
Entering a secret room, there are more than a dozen strong men here, holding weapons in their hands, exchanging something.
When Long Chen and the girl came in, although the faces of the strong men were pale, Long Chen was keenly aware of their nervousness.
"Senior Brother Long Chen"
Among the dozen or so people, one person suddenly stood up, looked at Long Chen with surprise and shouted.
"You are..." Long Chen was stunned, he didn't recognize this person.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, you have forgotten that on the Eternal Road, you and the Holy Aunt...we have met before." When the man saw Long Chen, his words were a little incoherent.
"See Senior Brother Long Chen"
The man called Long Chen's name, and those powerful men suddenly put their right hands on their chests, knelt down on one knee, and performed an extremely ancient etiquette.
"Everyone, get up, what are you doing?" Long Chen was a little embarrassed. He was not used to this kind of etiquette. How could a man kneel down to others easily? Long Chen would not kneel down to others, and he could not accept it if others knelt down to him.
.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, the patriarch said that you are our benefactor. Everything we have now is a gift from you. This kindness should always be remembered in our hearts." A strong man from the First Demon Clan said very sincerely.
Looking at the frank faces and the crystal clear eyes, Long Chen could easily see through their hearts. Long Chen couldn't help but feel moved. There were not many people in this world who knew how to be grateful.
Since Long Chen's rise to power, too many people have received favors from him. Although Long Chen does not expect repayment for his kindness, some people have received favors from others, but they feel that it is natural, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Compared with them, the words of these powerful members of the First Demon Clan in front of him moved Long Chen from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay, good brother, just keep it in your heart. Don't say it with your mouth in the future, otherwise it will be boring." Long Chen patted the man's shoulder heavily. They were all a group of respectable men.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, I'd better take you to see the elders. Don't delay Senior Brother Long Chen's important events." The girl said with a smile.
"Senior Brother Long Chen, you are busy first, you have important business." Those powerful people from the First Demon Clan were a little embarrassed and felt that Long Chen's precious time was wasted.
"Okay, then I'll meet senior first, and we'll have a drink together later when we have time."
Long Chen smiled, and under the leadership of the girl, he walked through a secret door and entered a secret room.
In the secret room, a long-haired man was meditating with his eyes closed. The door was pushed open and he slowly opened his eyes.
The moment the man opened his eyes, Long Chen seemed to feel two sharp blades shooting at him. Although there was no danger, the fierce momentum could not be concealed.
"A very powerful dean-level expert"
Long Chen was shocked. This person's aura was also that of a master-level expert, but it was more terrifying than any king-level expert that Long Chen had ever seen.
"The First Demon Clan, Yue Minghan, meets my benefactor."
At that time, the powerful leader of the Demon Clan also held his chest with one hand, knelt on one knee, and made a respectful salute like the disciples outside.
"Senior can't do it!"
Long Chen hurriedly helped the man up. Are you kidding? This etiquette is so uncomfortable.
"Senior, can we stop being so strict? I don't like restraint by nature. You are so polite and make me feel uncomfortable." Long Chen said with a bitter smile.
At that time, the powerful demon stood up and said with a smile: "This ceremony must be performed for the first time. This is to let us always remember the people who have helped us. If you don't like it, future etiquette can be waived."
"Then hurry up and reduce the amount. Returning a courtesy is a waste of time. Let's get to the point. Senior..." Long Chen said.
"Call me Seventh Elder," the man said.
"Okay, Seventh Elder, I want to ask, is Xiaoqian here?" Long Chen asked. He hadn't seen her for a long time and missed her very much.
Especially when they parted ways in Donghuang, Yue Xiaoqian cried so hard that Long Chen's heart almost broke. Now he really wants to see Yue Xiaoqian.
"After you left Donghuang, Xiaoqian returned to the Ferris Realm and went into seclusion under the arrangement of the clan leader. She has not yet left seclusion," said the Seventh Elder.
"Why does it take so long to be in seclusion?" Long Chen was surprised. It has been more than a year and he still hasn't come out of seclusion.
"She is in seclusion within the inheritance of our ancestors of the First Demon Clan. She cannot come out unless she reaches the state of condensing the magic elixir, which is what you call the Xuandan state." The seventh elder said.
No way, this girl worked too hard. From the sea-opening realm, she went directly into seclusion to attack the two realms of Sendai and Xuandan.
"Actually, the reason why Xiaoqian is working so hard is to be reunited with you as soon as possible. Only by condensing the magic pill can she hide from the deliberate detection of the powerful people in the Fate Star Realm and avoid exposing her identity.
This is why, when you were about to enter Zhongzhou, Xiaoyu stopped Xiaoqian, because if you entered Zhongzhou, you would be in front of the powerful people in the Fate Star Realm every day, and your identity would be exposed immediately if there was any deliberate investigation. At that time, you would both be in danger.
"The seventh elder said.
"Okay, then I'll just wait for her. Seventh Elder, I will provide you with some high-quality Tiandao Fruit this time, so that the brothers and sisters walking outside will be safer." After Long Chen finished speaking, he handed it to you.
The Seventh Elder had a space ring. When Long Chen chased the Cloud-Swallowing Sky Bird back to the Dao Sect, he brought back a space ring containing six seventh-grade Heavenly Dao Fruits.
Among the six Heavenly Dao Fruits, two were seventh-grade Heavenly Dao Fruits from those killed by the master-level experts, and hundreds of sixth-grade Heavenly Dao Fruits were brought back together.
Now there are still a bunch of fifth-grade and lower-grade Tiandao fruits left in his hand, all of which were given to the seventh elder.
I briefly inquired about the situation of the Shimo Clan with the Seventh Elder. Now the Shimo Clan has begun to bloom everywhere and gradually spread. Although I don’t dare to purchase resources in a big way now, some scarce things in the Sky World are being slowly replenished through various channels.
, the form is great.
After Long Chen learned this, he felt relieved. He said goodbye to the seven elders and came out of the Forging Shop. Long Chen went straight to the Dionysus Palace according to the location given by Qi Hao.
But halfway through, Long Chen suddenly stopped because he smelled a familiar scent.
