C3 The Might of the City Lord

When Prince Zhan was still alive, he had made great contributions to pacifying the chaos. As a result, he was conferred the title of King with a different surname and was given fiefdom. He was renamed the Prince Zhan Region.

Prince Zhan Region was very large, second only to the Heavenly Illusion Region where the imperial family was located. However, it was located at the northwest border of Celestial Illusion Dynasty, which was relatively remote and harsh.

Prince Zhan Domain had a total of thirteen cities, and Tianhuang City was the smallest of them all. Before this, there had never been a city lord in Tianhuang City, and it was jointly controlled by the three great families.

Now, after Lu Chen had taken over the city, it had affected the interests of the three major families. Furthermore, Left Prime Minister had always wanted to destroy the Prince Zhan Clan, so naturally, the three major families would stand on Left Prime Minister's side and become enemies with the Prince Zhan Clan.

When he heard that the three major families were holding a banquet together, Lu Chen was very calm and indifferent.

He had already guessed that the three families would do such a thing when the Prince Zhan Clan was reduced to such a state.

"Young master, the three families have ulterior motives. It's very likely that they have sided with Left Prime Minister. We can't go to this banquet." Uncle Fu was old and hunched, but his face was filled with determination.

His life was given by Prince Zhan. If it was possible, he would rather die in Prince Zhan's place.

After Prince Zhan's death, his only wish was to protect Lu Chen and let the Prince Zhan Clan have a successor.

"You are in City Lord's Mansion. Under broad daylight, the three families should be patient and wouldn't dare to make a move, but once you leave City Lord's Mansion..."

Uncle Fu shook his head.

Lu Chen's eyes were clear. He stood with his hands behind his back, thinking about how to break out of this situation.

All of a sudden, he saw his sister, Lu Xin, who was walking around in the distance. Then, he saw a scratch on her face. Although it was very shallow, he saw it at first glance.

"Hmm?"

Lu Chen frowned and was a little unhappy.

On the side, Uncle Fu whispered, "Not long ago, Lei Lian of Lei family accompanied Muh Wan to City Lord's Mansion to pay a visit. They met Lu Xin and had a dispute..."

Lu Chen was a little angry. The three major families had gone too far.

"Young master, now that the Prince Zhan Clan has fallen, we can't completely fall out with the three families. We need to be patient." At the same time, Uncle Fu told Lu Chen that he had already written a letter and sent someone to send it to the battlefield.

Those brothers who had lived and died with Prince Zhan should be able to receive it.

Now, they could only hope that they would return to wash away the grievances of the Prince Zhan Clan and retain their last hope.

Looking at his sister's back as she left, Lu Chen's anger gradually disappeared and was replaced by an unprecedented calmness.

Could it be that the Prince Zhan Clan could only watch helplessly as they were slaughtered?

No!

This was the answer in his heart.

With his current strength, it was naturally impossible for him to fight against the three great families, but don't forget that he was Dragon Emperor, a former peak expert.

Very quickly, Lu Chen made a decision.

"Uncle Fu, go and inform the three great families that I, Lu Chen, will attend the banquet as promised." Lu Chen said.

"But."

Uncle Fu wanted to dissuade him, but when he saw Lu Chen's determined look, he finally nodded his head. At the same time, he was prepared to die. Even if he died in battle, he couldn't let his young master suffer any harm.

"Right, Uncle Fu, I need some materials. Help me look for them. Also, help me find a weapons craftsman in the prefecture to forge a weapon."

As he spoke, Lu Chen took out two lists.

After Uncle Fu took the list, he was somewhat puzzled.

"Young master, this second map is a diagram for refining weapons. I can understand this, but this first list, if I'm not wrong, it should be some kind of formation, right?"

"When did young master learn formations?"

In this world, although martial arts were revered, there were also all sorts of cultivation methods.

Formations were cultivation, artifact forging was cultivation, and talismans were cultivation as well.

However, for the warriors of Body Tempering Stage, they couldn't even reach the threshold of cultivation, which was why Uncle Fu was somewhat puzzled.

"Uncle Fu, you don't have to worry about it. Just help me get it."

Uncle Fu thought for a moment and then nodded. "I'll get it right away."

...

Three days later, Uncle Fu had gathered all the materials listed on the list. At the same time, the equipment forgers of City Lord's Mansion had also refined the weapons Lu Chen needed.

On the martial arts field, Uncle Fu found Lu Chen and handed the materials to him. At the same time, he gave him the saber that he had refined.

"Due to the limited level of equipment forging, this saber is a rank 1 weapon."

The weapons were divided into nine ranks. The rank 1 weapon was the lowest, and the rank 9 weapon was the highest.

The equipment forgers of Tianhuang City had barely touched the threshold of rank 2, but due to the limited materials, they could only refine a rank 1 weapon.

Lu Chen took the saber and nodded his head in satisfaction. Tier 1 was enough.

"Lu Chen."

Suddenly, a loud voice was heard.

Lu Chen turned his head and saw a fat young man with a big head and big ears. He was walking towards them with big steps.

"I heard that you are going to attend the banquet of the younger generation a few days later?" Lei Ming asked.

Lu Chen nodded, "What's the matter?"

Lei Ming grinned and said sarcastically, "With your strength, even if you go, you will still be beaten into a pig head."

"However, if you can give me a stalk of Black Fire Grass... I can guarantee that the younger generation of Lei family will help you stop the other two families from making things difficult for you at the banquet. What do you think? " Lei Ming's eyes shone with a golden light. His true goal was the Black Fire Grass.

Lu Chen glanced at Lei Ming, and at the same time, he recalled the scene of his sister Lu Xin being injured three days ago.

He raised his head and looked at Lei Ming with disdain.

"My City Lord's Mansion does have Black Fire Grass, but why should I give it to you?"

Lu Chen's voice wasn't loud, but it instantly silenced the entire martial arena. Everyone's eyes fell upon Lei Ming.

"Furthermore, you have trespassed into City Lord's Mansion. You have offended the City Lord, and you have offended your superiors. Your crime is unforgivable." Lu Chen said word by word.

He was Dragon Emperor. Even though he was in a weakened state now, he was not someone anyone could offend.

There was a domineering aura coming from his body, causing Lei Ming to be slightly surprised.

"You..."

Looking at Lu Chen, Lei Ming stuttered, unable to speak. He was truly frightened by Lu Chen's aura.

Uncle Fu, who was standing at the side, was also shocked. He looked at Lu Chen in surprise.

The dragon's might spread out. The dragon's roar was faintly discernible. Lu Chen stood with his hands behind his back. He looked down at Lei Ming from above, as if he was a god looking down on all living beings.

"Get lost. If there is a next time, you should know the consequences." Lu Chen said in a cold voice. A mere Lei Ming was not worth his effort.

"Do you really think you are the City Lord?"

Lei Ming snapped out of his trance and threw out a punch.

Boom!

A terrifying wave of Qi swept across the sky and earth. When the dust settled, Lu Chen had already left. Lei Ming was in a sorry state. He was lying on the ground with blood flowing out.

"Young master, he?"

Uncle Fu was shocked. Lei Ming, who was at the sixth level of the Body Tempering, couldn't even withstand a single strike from Lu Chen? This was unbelievable.

After a short period of silence, a round of thunderous applause erupted in the arena.

...

Outside the Tianhuang City, several dozen miles away.

One. He was getting closer and closer to the old man.

"The Tianhuang City is right in front of us, isn't it?"

He narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. Yellow Ox was mooing.

"Back then, Prince Zhan walked out of this place."

The old man said.
