Ziqi City is located in the south of Taichu Realm. It is a famous city throughout Taichu Realm and is famous for its developed trade in elixirs and alchemy materials.
The gate of Ziqi City is about ten meters high and five to six meters wide. Anyone entering Ziqi City needs to enter through the gate. Anyone who dares to fly in from high altitude or tear the space to enter will face heavy penalties.
Of course, these rules only apply to people with ordinary strength. As for the strong... in the world of ascetics, as long as you are strong enough, you can ignore any rules.
After entering the city, there is a road more than ten meters wide, with an endless stream of pedestrians. Both sides of the street are full of vendors setting up stalls, selling elixirs or various alchemy materials.
Some of the vendors are only as tall as children, but have faces like adults, and there are also old men with wrinkles on their faces, who look like they have already stepped into a coffin... There are all kinds of people, including
Some of them have very strange looks.
The same thing is that the auras of these people are very powerful and they are by no means weak.
"Although Yiren and the others told me before coming here that this Ziqi City is very prosperous, and a large amount of elixirs and materials are traded every day, but this situation is too exaggerated?"
Lin Chen mingled with the crowd on the street and glanced at the vendors on both sides. He couldn't help but be a little surprised. He knew that Ziqi City was very prosperous, but he didn't expect it to be so lively.
Mr. Yan, who was following him, nodded, feeling that the city was a little too lively.
"Haha! We've finally caught up.
If we come a few days later, this once-in-a-decade ‘Purple Qi Festival’ will end, and if you want to see this scene again, you will have to wait another ten years!”
Next to Lin Chen, a middle-aged man in Chinese clothes glanced at the stalls on both sides of the street and said excitedly.
"Yes! This 'Ziqi Festival' is held once every ten years. Every time it is held, many powerful alchemists will come here to sell elixirs and alchemy materials.
It is said that a sixth-grade Dao realm holy elixir appeared here last time, and I don’t know if a pill of this level will appear this time.”
The old man next to the middle-aged man said with some expectation.
Lin Chen and Yan Lao looked at each other, and then they understood that it was not that Ziqi City had always been so prosperous, but that they just happened to encounter this so-called "Ziqi Festival".
"After Lei Qianren is found, if the 'Purple Qi Festival' is not over yet, I will go shopping and see if there are any alchemy materials that are useful to me."
Lin Chen's eyes swept across the stalls on both sides of the street, and without stopping for a moment, he walked towards the Tianyue Inn where Qingtian and others had invited him to meet.
As an alchemist, he is also somewhat interested in this "Purple Qi Festival", but in comparison, Lei Qianren's safety is naturally much more important.
"Look! It's from the Zi family!"
"Get out of the way quickly and don't block their way. If you provoke them, it will be troublesome!"
...The pedestrians beside Lin Chen quickly moved closer to the street, their faces full of awe.
Lin Chen and Mr. Yan followed the gazes of these people and saw a dozen men and women not far away, walking towards them.
Walking in the front was a young man and woman. The man was tall and handsome, and the woman was tall and graceful with beautiful appearance.
The rest of the people followed the two of them, like their subordinates.
As they moved forward, they scanned the various items on the stalls on both sides with their eyes, directly ignoring other pedestrians, giving people a arrogant and superior feeling.
"Zi family?
Is this Zi family very powerful?"
Lin Chen looked at the middle-aged man next to him who was full of awe and said.
"Coming from out of town?"
The middle-aged man glanced at Lin Chen with some disdain, as if he thought Lin Chen was a country bumpkin.
Lin Chen didn't care and nodded.
The middle-aged man said with some showoff: "Do you know how the name Ziqi City came about?"
Lin Chen was silent for two seconds and said, "Is it possible that it has something to do with the Zi family?"
"Hey, your boy's reaction is quite fast.
Yes, it is indeed related to the Zi family.
The name of Ziqi City comes from the ancestor Ziqi, and the ancestor Ziqi is a member of the Zi family.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Zi family was just an ordinary family here. It was the ancestor Zi Qi who came out of the blue and brought the Zi family to its current height. It has long been the first family in Zi Qi City."
The eyes of the middle-aged man were full of admiration, "If the ancestor Zi Qi had not died, then the Zi family would have definitely become a first-class force in Taichu, just like the Sheri Sect, Danyang Temple, etc."
"A first-rate force..." After hearing this, Lin Chen completely lost interest.
Not to mention that the Zi family has not become a first-class force, even if it has become a first-class force, it is nothing in front of him, the elder of Taichu Mountain.
He glanced at the group of people from the Zi family, and his eyes swept over the arrogant man and woman in the front, feeling that these people were like frogs in a well.
Lin Chen shook his head and said to Mr. Yan: "Old Yan, let's go."
A cold scolding voice suddenly sounded.
"Boy, what did you mean by shaking your head just now?
Do you look down on our Zi family members?"
The scene where Lin Chen shook his head just now was seen by a young man behind the couple. The man's face darkened, his figure flashed, and he immediately blocked Lin Chen who was leaving with Mr. Yan.
In addition, those people from the Zi family also looked at Lin Chen.
"Zi Hao, what's going on?"
The tall and handsome young man at the front frowned.
The woman next to him glanced at Lin Chen and then looked away, without stopping for a moment, not bothering to take another look.
"This guy just looked at a group of us and shook his head with a very disapproving look on his face! He seems to be in trouble!"
The young man named Zi Hao said.
Pedestrians on the street looked at Lin Chen with pity in their eyes. Naturally, they did not think that Lin Chen had the courage to offend the Zi family. They just thought that Lin Chen was too unlucky. He probably thought of something and shook his head.
It happened to be seen by someone from the Zi family.
"My head grows on my own neck. I can shake my head if I want to, and nod my head if I want. Is it possible that whether I shake my head or nod, I have to get the consent of your Zi family?"
Lin Chen looked indifferent and said angrily, the Zi family is quite domineering, he just shook his head, they are all going to make trouble for him.
The young man headed by the Zi family laughed: "You are right, it does require the consent of our Zi family.
Our Zi family is the heaven of this Ziqi City, and any behavior of anyone requires our consent.
We are too lazy to embarrass you, a little person, so you slap yourself three times, say ‘I was wrong’ three times, and then you can leave.”
His tone gave people a sense of refusal, and it was obvious that he had become a habit of giving orders to others.
"Hmph! It's because Brother Yanghua has a better temper, that's why he's so advantageous to you! If it were me, I would just twist your head off and see if you dare to shake your head in the future!"
Zi Hao, who was standing in front of Lin Chen, said a little viciously.
