Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

Chapter 485 Encountering Enemies Upon Arrival in the Seven Kings City

The cultivators below the Cangzhou Sacred Realm have basically never left Cangzhou, and they feel that Cangzhou is already very large and vast.

However, compared to the entire Tianyuan Realm, Cangzhou is merely a drop in the ocean.

The Tianyuan Realm has thousands of continents, each with a different history, size, and resource abundance.

Twenty dominant forces occupy the twenty largest and most resource-rich continents in the Tianyuan Realm.

Moreover, most of the other states in the vicinity, including their own, are also their vassal states, receiving their protection and paying tribute to them.

However, a weak and impoverished continent like Cangzhou is not even considered a worthy target.

Strictly speaking, the entire Tianyuan Realm is divided and controlled by twenty hegemonic forces.

This resulted in them being very far apart from each other.

Apart from those at the Emperor Realm, other cultivators need a considerable amount of time to travel between the various continents of the Tianyuan Realm.

Xu Luo and his group, riding on the Azure Thunder Roc, which had already reached the Saint Realm, flew at full speed without stopping for about a year before finally arriving at the Eastern Continent where the Seven Kings City was located.

Upon arriving in Dongzhou, there was no need to rush, so Qing Leipeng slowed down appropriately.

Xu Chen clicked his tongue in amazement and said, "The journey has been smooth so far, but in the last few days, we've encountered obstacles every day. Could this be the influence of the Seven Kings City?"

"Simply put, Seven Kings City is a city built by seven bandits and a bunch of villains, so the closer you are to Seven Kings City, the more chaotic it becomes," Xu Luo said in a deep voice.

If he hadn't been with a few powerful figures in his previous life, he wouldn't have dared to, and wouldn't have survived to reach the Seven Kings City.

Besides Xu Luo and his two companions, as well as the Hidden Dragon Guards, Qing Leipeng also carried several members of the Xu family who had been trained at the Drunken Immortal Pavilion. They were in charge of opening shops in the Seven Kings City.

The shopkeeper asked, "Young Master Luo, shall we open the shop directly in the city, or wait and see?"

Xu Luo replied, "First, we need to understand the power dynamics within the city, then find a suitable shop, and finally make all the necessary preparations before opening the shop once everything is stable."

“Okay,” the shopkeeper nodded.

The Seven Kings City is too special. It is a mixed bag with many different forces. It is so far from home, and they have no backing or support. They have to be careful in everything they do.

If you rush into opening a shop upon entering the city, you'll only end up benefiting others.

Xu Luo continued, "Among the twenty strongest forces, there is one called Wangyuelou. There are branches of Wangyuelou in 80% of the continents of Tianyuan Realm. Their businesses mainly include restaurants, teahouses, eateries, inns, and brothels."

"So if we want to successfully open the Drunken Immortal Pavilion in the Seven Kings City, we need to pay special attention to the Moon Gazing Pavilion."

Xu Yan exclaimed, "Wow, the business of Wangyue Tower is so extensive! No wonder it can become one of the twenty hegemonic forces."

Xu Chen chuckled and said, "There is also the Azure Sky Chamber of Commerce, which also has a wide range of businesses and branches all over the Tianyuan Realm. These two forces may not have such a strong foundation or overall strength, but they should not be underestimated."

When the three of them went to Qingzhou True Dragon Academy, they already knew about these forces.

Xu Qiufeng sighed with a complicated expression.

Once you leave Cangzhou, you'll find that the world is incredibly complex. If you don't have a deep background, every step you take will be like walking on thin ice, and you'll have to be extremely careful.

“We’re almost there,” Xu Luo suddenly said.

The people on Qing Leipeng's back perked up. Apart from the three of them, it was the first time the others had seen a dominant force in the entire Tianyuan Realm, so they were secretly looking forward to it.

At the same time, I'm also a little curious about what this Seven Kings City is like, and how it compares to their Great Qian's Ascension City.

Soon they saw a blurry little black dot ahead. As they got closer, it was as if they were passing through layers of thick fog, and they gradually saw the enormous creature hidden in the fog.

If the walls of Ascension City are an ancient ferocious beast lying prostrate on the ground, then the walls of Seven Kings City are a mountain range composed of towering peaks.

At first glance, the Immortal Ascension City evokes a sense of awe and longing, while the Seven Kings City seems unattainable.

The Hidden Dragon Guards were all dumbfounded.

"This...this is the Seven Kings City!!"

"I would believe you if you told me this was a fairy city."

"We thought our Rising Dragon City was already formidable, but we never imagined there was something even stronger!!"

The moment they saw the Seven Kings City, they compared it to the Rising Dragon City in every aspect.

The final result is obvious: Ascension City is inferior to Seven Kings City in every aspect, and not just by a little bit, but by a huge margin.

Of course, this gap is inevitable; it's the normal difference between the overlords of Cangzhou and the overlords of Tianyuan Realm.

If one day the Xu family also becomes a dominant force in the Tianyuan Realm, then Ascension City will not be inferior to Seven Kings City, and may even be stronger.

Just as they were within arm's reach of the Seven Kings City, a cynical voice suddenly rang out from not far away.

"Hey, this roc looks pretty good, quite majestic."

"Hey! You guys, how much for this mount?"

Xu Luo and the other two turned their heads to look, and when they saw the person who spoke, they couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Why is it him?"

"It's true what they say, it's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester!"

It turned out that the one who shouted was Xiang Zhantian, who had previously formed a grudge against Xu Luo and his two companions in the ruins of the Myriad Beasts Sect in Youzhou and had been chasing and intercepting them.

They never expected that they would encounter their old enemies so soon after arriving in the Seven Kings City.

However, Xu Luo and the other two had already changed their appearances and auras, so he did not recognize them. He probably just thought that Qing Leipeng was extraordinary and wanted to buy him.

"What should we do, Brother Luo?" A fierce glint flashed in Xu Chen's eyes; clearly, he wanted to take action.

Last time, they were chased by Xiang Zhantian for more than ten days in the ruins of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. As soon as they left the ruins, they were trapped by his subordinates and finally ran away for countless miles.

If they didn't have so many trump cards up their sleeves, they wouldn't have been able to hold on at all.

Although they didn't say anything about it, they kept it in mind and were determined to avenge it one day.

"We're still outside the city, it's not safe. Let's go into the city first," Xu Luo patted Qing Leipeng, urging him to speed up and get into the city quickly.

Even though Seven Kings City is a city of sin, there is still order. You can do whatever you want outside the city; nobody cares.

But once inside the city, no one can make a move unless you are stronger than the seven kings of the Emperor Realm.

Back when Xiang Zhantian was in the ruins of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, he claimed to be from the Seven Kings City. Judging from his arrogant and domineering style, his background must be extraordinary.

Xu Luo wasn't worried about his identity being discovered; he just didn't want to sell Qing Leipeng. If he refused him outside the city and Qing Leipeng attacked, Xu Luo and his group would be in danger.

So no matter what, it's best to enter the city first and ensure your own safety.
