C1954 Challenge the City Lord's Position
Just now, they had been trying to provoke an existence that already grasped the power of the four Laws?
"Master, we are willing to follow you forever, swearing loyalty and devotion to you!"
The bearded man was rather straightforward. Recalling what Chen Xiao said just now, he kneeled down on the ground without any hesitation.
With the bearded man taking the lead, the three people behind him also kneeled down willingly and shouted loudly.
Chen Xiao originally wanted to recruit his own faction, but since he didn't need to ask them to follow him voluntarily, it saved him a lot of trouble, so he just agreed to it.
The few of them tidied up for a while, and Chen Xiao also came back to his senses. Although he didn't show it on the surface, he still talked with the four of them like they were some kind of otherworldly expert.
At this time, the place he was at already belonged to a border region of the Divine Realm.
Other than these, there were a few other things that Chen Xiao was interested in. It was a place called the Black Stone Forest.
To the south of this place was a rich forest filled with blackstones. Inside the forest, there was a vast expanse of ancient forest formed from tens of thousands of years, and inside the forest, there were countless high-level demon beasts.
Up till now, it seemed that no one had been able to come out alive. It was said that those that did would all be lost in the forest until their deaths.
In order to reach the Black Stone Forest, one had to pass through a cold stone wasteland where various kinds of demons and mutants resided. Currently, the snake race ruled this area, and from a few people, it was known that the border was in a bad weather and would be attacked by demon beasts from time to time. That was why the native-born people here gradually gathered together and established the current Cold Stone City.
As the city expanded step by step, although it was located in a relatively remote area, it became a transportation fortress. Moreover, because it was leaning against the Blackstone Forest, many people would come here to hunt demon beasts.
As a result, some of the people who came in contact with the city saw that it was profitable and seized it for themselves.
It was unknown when this ownerless city had formed an unwritten rule. Whoever could defeat the city lord would immediately become the new city lord and control it.
"Are you saying that whoever is strong enough will be the City Lord of Cold Rock City?" Chen Xiao asked in surprise.
If he could obtain this City Lord position, then if he wanted to develop and explore the Black Stone Forest, he could obtain enough cultivation resources and build an empire of his own, that would be just around the corner.
"Yes master, your skills are not ordinary. With your cultivation, obtaining this position of city lord is as easy as flipping your hand." The bearded man said with a flattering smile.
"Ah Da, then do you know who the current City Lord is?"
When the bearded man called Ah Da heard this, he immediately gave a look to Second Bro Dao Ba, who quickly went up to Chen Xiao Ke to call this year's City Lord. This year's City Lord's name is Li Xuan, he has already ruled this city for over a hundred years and there have been a lot of people trying to snatch this City Lord's seat over these years, but they were all dealt with by him and he has some ability.
"Based on what you said, this Li Xuan is actually someone who has mastered the Laws?" Interesting, I already can't wait to meet him. " Ever since Chen Xiao entered the Celestial domain, aside from the people who had mastered the Laws during his battle at the Fa Hua Temple, this was also the second person that had mastered the Laws. Chen Xiao wanted to meet Chen Xiao no matter what.
Soon, Chen Xiao arrived at Cold Rock City under the lead of Ah Da and the others.
Cold Stone City looked rather run-down, but it didn't affect the enthusiasm of the merchants. It could be said that this was the only place where the humans and demi-humans could coexist peacefully.
There were many mutants living in this area, and both the humans and the demons shared a close relationship with each other.
However, Chen Xiao quickly found out that most of the residents in this city were just ordinary people and most of the cultivators were only in the True God Stage.
Chen Xiao didn't know that this was because this place was remote and the local residents didn't have any way to obtain much knowledge about training. Most of the experts came from the outside.
After Chen Xiao and the others entered the city, they walked straight towards a somewhat deserted battle arena. From Ah Da and the others' words, if they wanted to challenge the City Lord, they only needed to ring the huge drum in the corner of the battle arena.
When Chen Xiao's group appeared in the arena, a lot of people around them started to talk among themselves.
"Isn't that Ah Da and the others? Who is this young man? Oh my god, are they here to challenge the City Lord? "
"This should be around a hundred years, how could there still be someone who dares to challenge the City Lord? "He's just acting recklessly."
"Ah Da, why aren't you guys persuading this young man. Is the Mayor being nice?"
"Don't worry about it. Just wait and see, master is really amazing." The second brother shooed away the aunts who were selling vegetables and the idlers who were watching the show.
"Then... That's right, I. Our master is very powerful. " Even Ol 'Three, who was usually taciturn because of his words, explained unwillingly.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The low and deep battle drum had just sounded when Li Xuan, who was cultivating in the City Governor's Estate, heard the drum and opened her eyes.
"It's been a hundred years, yet another reckless person dares to come and provoke us."
Very quickly, the underlings ran back to report the news they had gathered.
After hearing the news, Li Xuan said disdainfully: "He's just a young man? Three days later, we will meet in the battle arena. If he can receive three of my moves, I will forgive him. "
On the other side, in the battle stadium!
Chen Xiao couldn't help but laugh when he heard that the soldiers were so arrogant that they passed down the orders. Seeing Chen Xiao act so outrageously, Chen Xiao was so angry that his face turned red.
"You reckless bastard, wait for three days for the body to be collected."
"Bang!"
Even though the four of them were not even worth mentioning compared to Chen Xiao, they were still experts in Borderless Stage.
"You reckless fool! How dare a bastard like you act so arrogantly in front of your master?!"
"Go back and tell your master that I, Chen Xiao, have always respected the elderly and cherished the young. I can let him attack me three times." Chen Xiao left after saying that in a domineering manner.
Very soon, Chen Xiao's might spread throughout Cold Stone City, and all the forces in the surrounding cities received the news, but they did not take it to heart. Freezing Stone City could not be considered the largest city here, and even though it was close to the Black Stone Forest, it could not be found on a large scale, and it was also the most seriously affected area in the city, so it could not be considered to be rich. The other surrounding region's forces did not care about it, and this was one of the main reasons why Li Xuan was able to sit stably in the city for more than a hundred years.
"You're just an unknown bastard, and yet you dare to challenge me. I will feed his corpse to the dogs in the wilderness." When Li Xuan heard the soldiers coming back to add fuel to the fire, she gnashed her teeth and shouted.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Freezing Stone City was abnormally noisy today, and the battle arena had long been surrounded by so many people that not even a drop of water could leak out. It was unknown who shouted, "They're here."
Chen Xiao, dressed in green, casually walked into the arena.
On the other side, Li Xuan looked at the late Chen Xiao with a cold expression, wishing that she could rip him apart.
"I thought you wouldn't dare to come."
