Half an hour later, Lu Chen drove at a fast pace and soon arrived at Tiangu City.
Tiangu City is a well-known large city in Longshan Ghost Cave. It covers an area of hundreds of miles. At its peak, the resident population reached nearly one million.
As one of the core counties and cities in the Canglan land, Tiangu City has a history of nearly a thousand years. It is said that during the dynasty era, it was the imperial capital of successive emperors.
There are even rumors that the god Yu the Great built the first city here, and it was also called the City of King Yu the Great by later generations.
When Lu Chen came to the gate of King Yu's City, he saw a huge stone sculpture hundreds of feet high standing on top of the city tower. Under the two legs was the gate leading in and out of the city.
This giant stone sculpture wears an animal skin, has a crown on its head, holds a giant ax in its right hand, and holds a torch in its left hand, which means lighting the way in the world. It is like a majestic mountain, which makes people feel the urge to worship.
Countless people entered and exited the city gate, like a small flow of people made up of ants.
In the city of King Yu, there was a bustle of people, merchants were walking through the streets and alleys, and shouts came and went, creating a prosperous scene.
Lu Chen entered the city on foot and saw at a glance a wide avenue that could accommodate four war horses extending to the end of the line of sight.
In the streets, knight-errant swordsmen carrying swords can be seen everywhere.
Many convoys of family forces crossed the streets and went straight to the direction of the city lord of King Yu's City.
There is the residence of the Xiao family, one of the five wealthy families in Canglan land.
Nowadays, the world is in chaos, and the Helian family's army is conquering everywhere. Under the powerful offensive, many forces have to submit, and most of the forces are unwilling to be annexed by the Helian family, so they lead the family's elites to King Yu's city to ask the Xiao family elders
Zu came out of the mountain to prevent this catastrophe.
That's why the scene that Lu Chen saw now happened.
"Hey, I can't even detect Brother Xiao's aura in this huge city of King Yu." Lu Chen exuded mental perception, covering a range of thirty miles ahead.
Within his domain, countless scattered auras appeared, as well as dozens of powerful auras.
Among these breaths, some are as hot as fire, some are as cold as snow, some are dark and sinister, and some are as domineering as thunder and lightning.
Lu Chen knew in his heart that those dots of aura represented countless ordinary people, while those who exuded a tyrannical aura were the top masters of the major families.
But the only thing he didn't find was Brother Xiao's vast and powerful domain power like clouds.
From this point of view, he should not be in King Yu's city.
"Brother Xiao, I don't know if now is the time to invite me to be a guest." Lu Chen sighed softly, and then quietly blended into the crowd.
When he arrived at the Xiao family's mansion, major family forces gathered around him, and a large number of carriages and horses crowded the streets, squeezing the gate to a crawl.
Dozens of blue-clad guards stood at the city gate. Those who could enter and exit the mansion were senior figures from major families, and all the idlers were blocked outside.
When Lu Chen saw this, he swayed and rushed in like lightning.
The guards standing at the door of the mansion just felt a breeze passing by, as if they didn't see it and turned a blind eye.
Arriving at the courtyard of the mansion, Lu Chen immediately saw eighteen desks placed under the open air in the courtyard.
The people sitting next to these desks are all influential figures from the major families in Canglan land.
For example, the Miao family, Kong family, Linghu family, Luo family, Xie family, Lin family, and even the Nangong family, one of the five powerful families in the past, all came here.
In addition, other families also have considerable influence in Canglan Land.
We are all here today just to discuss one thing.
Now that war is raging, Sword Immortal Helian is extremely ambitious, and his family's army of millions is like a group of ferocious beasts, marching out to conquer everywhere.
As a result, a large number of family forces were wiped out, territories were captured, and all were included in the territory of the Helian family.
The ambition to dominate the world is clearly revealed.
Just yesterday, the Blood Sword Immortal Helian Longcheng invited the Dugu Sword Immortal to fight in a fierce battle in the Canglan River.
This battle was earth-shattering and shocked the world.
In the end, Dugu Jianxian was defeated miserably, and his life and death were unknown.
Overnight, it spread throughout the world.
This has caused countless family forces to feel uneasy and frightened.
Even the Dugu Sword Immortal was defeated by the Blood Sword Immortal. I wonder who else in the world can stop the ambition of the Helian family.
The guardians of the forbidden area have always only heard about the person but never seen him. They have always been hidden deep in Qishan Mountain and have no interest in worldly affairs.
Only the ancestor of the Xiao family, Xiao Chen, traveled around the world and left many footprints on the Canglan land.
Almost all the major family forces have pinned their hopes on this old devil who has never seen the beginning or end of the dragon.
After Lu Chen entered the mansion, he stopped in an attic and looked down at these people from a high place to see how they dealt with this catastrophe.
His eyes swept across the huge courtyard, and he found many familiar figures in it.
Ji Xue, who has a slim figure and a delicate face, is wearing a light blue dress, like an orchid in a quiet valley. She is still the same as before, but after a long period of conditioning, she looks more delicate and charming.
After more than half a year, Zhao Xiaozhu's figure has become much stronger.
There are also Nangong Jin, Qin Hong and Liu Qing from the Nangong family. They are still the same, almost unchanged.
During this period, a large number of family forces were wiped out by the Helian family. Wherever the army went, corpses lay everywhere and rivers of blood flowed.
This resulted in the intimidation of countless forces. Under the unprecedented crisis, the remaining family forces felt a huge pressure and began to take precautions and look for backers.
And this backer is naturally the ancestor of the Xiao family.
They all hope that the ancestor of the Xiao family will come forward to uphold justice and stop the barbaric behavior of the Helian family.
Therefore, there was this opportunity for the top leaders of the major families to gather together.
After the scene calmed down, Xiao Xuan, the head of the Xiao family dressed in white, led several senior officials from the main hall.
Among several senior executives, Lu Chen unexpectedly discovered a familiar figure that seemed familiar to him.
She was wearing a purple dress with two lines of gold embroidered on the cuffs and collar, and the Xiao family's unique golden orchid mark was printed on her chest.
Her graceful figure outlines a charming curve under her robe, and her charming and arrogant face has attracted the attention of countless young warriors.
In particular, her beautiful eyes are like autumn water, as bright as the stars in the sky.
While walking, there is a dignified and beautiful temperament everywhere, which is eye-catching.
Isn't this Xiao Mengxuan whom I met at the foot of Qishan Mountain some time ago by an unknown lake?
She is actually a descendant of the Xiao family!
Thinking about it this way, she must be the great-granddaughter of the one that Brother Xiao keeps talking about and is regarded as the apple of his eye!
Lu Chen couldn't help but feel helpless when he thought of this.
We are destined to meet each other thousands of miles away, but if we are not destined to meet each other, we will not meet each other.
I thought that they would disappear in this life, but I didn't expect that in less than a year, they would meet again.
Speaking of fate, it is really amazing.
The middle-aged man in white at the head was Xiao Xuan, the Purple Thunder Sword Saint Lu Chen had seen in Yuncui Mountain.
When Xiao Xuan saw so many senior family members gathered in the mansion, he couldn't help but feel a surge of pride in his heart.
Because he knew in his heart that these people were here for their family ancestors.
I hope that this old man can come forward to uphold justice and resolve the catastrophe in the land of Canglan.
After all, the Helian family has swordsmen at their command. Wherever the army goes, they can attack and win every battle. They are unstoppable and unstoppable.
What ordinary forces use to stop it is tantamount to using an egg to hit a rock, using a mantis' arm as a chariot, and not overestimating its own capabilities.
Only when the Sword Immortal comes forward and defeats the Helian Sword Immortal can we gain peace in the world and a glimmer of hope for the major families.
