In Emperor Sea, more and more sea monsters appeared.
However, some sea monsters did not show their faces, but hid in the deep sea area.
Some sea monsters headed towards Xuanyuan Town.
Especially when the smell of blood fills the air, it will always attract nearby sea monsters.
Then... a big battle is inevitable.
The sea water was stained red from time to time, and soon dispersed.
But even so, the cultivators still did not retreat, and were fighting excitedly.
Not to mention other opportunities, the crystal nucleus alone is not a small gain.
Even if night falls, it can't stop the fighting on the sea.
News is also continuously spreading from Xuanyuan Town.
The vision of the emperor's sea, the appearance of sea monsters... Almost everyone thinks that this has something to do with Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo.
All major forces also reacted and prepared to come.
Xuanyuan Town... is surging.
After Xiao Chen finished his meal, he didn't go to Dihai and went back to the inn.
His soul power was almost exhausted, so he had to practice quickly, otherwise his combat power would be affected.
"Why hasn't Xiaogen come back?"
Sitting in front of the window, Xiao Chen looked out eagerly, like an old father looking forward to the wanderer's return home.
He waited for a long time, but he didn't see the spiritual root of heaven and earth coming back, so he could only shake his head.
"Is this playing wild? That's right, staying in the bone ring all day is no different from going to jail...Forget it, let it play."
Xiao Chen is not very worried about the safety of the spiritual roots of heaven and earth...
One night passed quickly.
When Xiao Chen woke up from the cultivation state, he still didn't see the spiritual roots of heaven and earth coming back.
"Where did you go to play..."
Xiao Chen muttered, left the room, and called Wang Pingbei to go downstairs for breakfast.
"Young Master Chen, Xuanyuan Town has gained a lot of cultivators overnight."
Xiao Er stepped forward and said in a low voice.
"Oh? It seems that the news has spread."
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows, not surprised.
As long as there is news, the practitioners will come through the teleportation array.
Speaking of it, it is faster and more convenient than the transportation method in the Mother Realm.
"Is anyone here on the second floor?"
Wang Pingbei hurriedly asked.
"Second floor? I haven't heard of it."
Xiao Er shook his head.
"Is there any other news?"
Xiao Chen asked casually.
"A lot of people died on the side of the Emperor Sea...there are more sea monsters."
Xiao Er replied.
"As for the town, it's nothing..."
"Hehe, here it is, as a reward."
Xiao Chen took out a few more gold particles and threw them to Xiao Er.
"Remember, if someone is looking for me, you must tell me."
"Don't worry, Young Master Chen. I'm not going anywhere. I'll just wait at the inn. If someone is looking for you, I'll let you know as soon as possible."
Xiao Er followed the golden particles, smiling even wider.
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded in satisfaction, and left with Wang Pingbei.
"In the morning, I'm going to visit Blacksmith Zhang, are you going?"
"Ah I……"
Wang Pingbei hesitated, he didn't really want to go, but he felt insecure after leaving Xiao Chen.
"Well, you don't want to go. You can take a stroll in the town, or go to Dihai to have a look, and get as much information as you can."
Xiao Chen thought for a while and said.
"OK."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
He felt that the situation in Xuanyuan Town should be better than that in Sifang City before.
At least... here is the iron master who wants to trouble Xiao Chen.
He didn't care that much about the iron head, unless there was an older generation coming.
"Bring the sound transmission stone, and contact me if you have anything."
Xiao Chen said again.
"Understood, Brother Chen."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"Brother Chen, I'll go then."
"Um."
Xiao Chen went to blacksmith Zhang in the back street and knocked on the door.
Soon, the man opened the door.
"You came."
"Hehe, didn't you go to kill the sea monster?"
Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"No, I haven't finished the work I have to do every day, so I can't go out."
The man shook his head.
"Go to Dihai in the afternoon."
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"By the way, I haven't asked your honorable name yet."
"Zhang San."
the man replied.
"..."
The corner of Xiao Chen's mouth twitched, Zhang San?
Do you dare to mention this name carefully?
However, he still cupped his hands: "So it's Brother Zhang San, what a good name... As the saying goes, 'one life is two, two begets three, three begets everything'..."
"Hehe, come in."
Although Zhang San didn't know what he meant, he must have praised his name, so he couldn't help but smile.
"good."
Xiao Chen followed with a smile and saw Blacksmith Zhang.
"Xiaoyou Chen is here."
Blacksmith Zhang pointed to the chair.
"Sit down and drink tea."
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded, sat down, picked up the tea, and took a sip.
"Senior Zhang, I still come to see you forging iron today, don't disturb me?"
"do not bother."
Blacksmith Zhang shook his head.
"Wait a minute, we'll go there."
"good."
While the two were chatting, Zhang San went to the side room and began to prepare for blacksmithing.
"Senior, do you forge iron every day?"
Xiao Chen asked casually while drinking tea.
"Yeah, there is nothing else, just this little interest."
Blacksmith Zhang nodded.
"I just think, before I die, I can leave behind a few weapons that satisfy me..."
"You are joking, with your strength, this age is nothing."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Still old."
Blacksmith Zhang waved his hand.
"By the way, how did you meet the ghost king?"
"Oh, when I was in Sifang City, I went to buy things at his stall...I didn't expect to meet him again here, and I thought it was fate, so I invited him to drink."
Xiao Chen said truthfully.
"He told you about the guardian, right?"
Zhang Tiejiang looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Yes."
Xiao Chen hesitated and nodded.
"I'm curious about your identity, including that of the ghost king."
"Hehe, what do you think is my identity, and what is his identity?"
Blacksmith Zhang smiled lightly.
"protector."
Xiao Chen put down the teacup.
"You are the guardian, and so is he."
"Why do you say that?"
Blacksmith Zhang raised his head and looked at Xiao Chen.
"There's no evidence, just a feeling."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Feeling? Hahaha."
Blacksmith Zhang laughed out loud.
"Let's go, we should be almost ready."
"Huh? Oh, good."
Xiao Chen was taken aback, but didn't ask any more questions, and followed.
Since Blacksmith Zhang didn't say anything, he couldn't continue asking.
Therefore, we can only listen to the arrangement.
When I came to the wing room, the heat hit my face.
"Before you said that the rhythm of my blacksmithing can help people cultivate their spirits, right?"
Blacksmith Zhang took the hammer from his disciple and asked.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Your rhythm is extraordinary."
"Hehe, let's listen to it better today."
Blacksmith Zhang smiled and swung his hammer.
Xiao Chen's heart moved, he held his breath and concentrated, and even... let out his consciousness.
Dangdangdang...
The rhythmic iron strike sounded again.
Blacksmith Zhang was also immersed in it, and the hammer was raised and lowered lightly.
Only Zhang San looked at Master from time to time, and then at Xiao Chen, muttering something in his heart.
On the other hand, Wang Pingbei was strolling around Xuanyuan Town, and when he encountered a place where practitioners gathered, he would go up to join in the fun and inquire about it.
"Overnight, the number of cultivators in Xuanyuan Town doubled."
"There have been a lot in the past few days, and now there are more?"
"Yes, more cultivators will flock to Xuanyuan Town in the future, and go to Dihai to find opportunities."
"Who wouldn't be interested in Emperor Xuanyuan's dojo? Those big bosses might all have to come here."
"Don't worry about it, it must come."
"They are here, so we can still get a chance?"
"Opportunity? Heh, the real big opportunity is never prepared for you and me... If we can have a sip of soup, the ancestral grave will be smoked."
"I heard that someone is coming from Qingyun Building, but I don't know who is here."
"Where is Shanhailou?"
"Shanhailou hasn't moved yet, but Qingyunlou is coming, and Shanhailou will definitely come soon."
"The conflict broke out on the second floor, and it's getting more and more serious... I don't know if there will be a contest this time."
"Have you heard? Chen Xiao is also here."
"Well, he's in Sifang City, but he offended Shanhailou... I don't know if Shanhailou will do anything this time."
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go, go to Dihai... If we can really kill a sea monster and get a crystal nucleus, it will not be in vain for us to stay here for more than ten days."
"Let's go..."
The cultivators headed straight for the Emperor Sea.
Wang Pingbei wandered around and continued to inquire about news in another place.
"Someone is coming from Qingyun Tower? Who could it be?"
Wang Ping turned around and decided to go to Qingyun Tower to have a look.
Because he came here with his master, so he is familiar with the road, and he will arrive soon.
"Could it be Qingyunzi who came? No, this is just the beginning. Even if Qingyunzi came, he wouldn't come at this time."
Wang Pingbei shook his head.
"He is here, the battle must be great... If he dares to walk out of Qingyun Tower, there must be many guardians around him!"
He sat down at a tea stand near Qingyun Tower, ordered a pot of tea, and stared there.
"It's him?"
Soon, Wang Pingbei's eyelids twitched.
In his line of sight, a gorgeously dressed young man appeared, holding a folding fan in his hand, looking... very hanging.
This is one of Qing Yunzi's followers, and he is also a dog leg... Of course, he is also a genius himself, and his ranking is quite high.
"Is this standing up for Qing Yunzi?"
Wang Pingbei looked at the young man and narrowed his eyes.
The young man didn't notice Wang Pingbei, and took the two of them to the direction of Dihai.
"Do you want to talk to Brother Chen and kill him?"
Wang Pingbei thought about it, he and this guy... are still a bit at odds.
Right now, it's a good opportunity.
With so many cultivators in Xuanyuan Town, it is too easy for one person to disappear without a sound.
Wang Pingbei turned his thoughts away, suppressed the urge to follow, and continued to drink tea and watch.
He wanted to find out who came to Qingyun Tower.
If there is no one who can threaten Xiao Chen, then naturally it would be best.
If there is... Forget it, if there is, he can't persuade Xiao Chen to leave here.
Now the vision of Dihai appears, everyone is coming here, how could Xiao Chen leave.
Even if the great elder came, Xiao Chen would not leave.
"As long as Qingyun Building doesn't find anything, the hostility towards Xiao Chen will not be great... The biggest threat comes from Shanhai Tower."
Wang Pingbei decided to go to Shanhailou to take a look later.
