Three days passed in the blink of an eye. In the early morning of the third day, Yan Chutian and the others packed up and headed towards the City Lord's Mansion. This was the safe passage.
Along the way, the three of them bumped into many cultivators who were also heading towards the City Lord's Mansion. Three days ago, the three of them had made a name for themselves in the third trial. Because of this, when others met them, they all had dignified expressions, some even showing awe.
But Yan Chutian naturally wouldn't bully others because of this. He took the initiative to dissolve the stiff atmosphere and talk with others. Since he took the initiative to show goodwill, the other cultivators naturally responded. They all smiled and warmly chatted with him.
No matter what thoughts they had in their hearts, on the surface, Yan Chutian had already become friends with them.
But this situation came to an abrupt end when the Mirage Faction's proud son of heaven appeared not too far away. The Mirage Faction's proud son of heaven had a gloomy complexion. His narrow eyes swept over Yan Chutian's direction before he retracted his gaze and led the several people behind him towards the City Lord's Mansion.
The Mirage Faction's proud son of heaven was not a fool. He knew that the true culprit who was able to deceive everyone in the second trial three days ago was not simple. But after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely that it was one of the proud sons of heaven from the various influences. Thus, it could only be these three people that had suddenly appeared!
As soon as he thought of this possibility, he thought of how these people had dared to plot against him and steal away the Universe Bags of the other proud sons of heaven. His heart began to surge with anger.
But of course, the Mirage Faction's proud son of heaven wasn't completely sure of this possibility. As for the specifics, he could only confirm them himself.
Since the Mirage Faction's proud son of heaven ignored him, Yan Chutian also couldn't show his warm face to a cold butt. Moreover, he understood that the more he spoke, the more likely it would be to slip up. If he accidentally revealed that he was the culprit who had stolen the Universe Bags of the other proud sons of heaven, it would always be troublesome.
Finally, surrounded by many cultivators, Yan Chutian and the others finally approached the City Lord's Mansion. What appeared in front of them was an extremely magnificent and massive building.
Central Plains City was built by many influences of the Central Plains. The City Lord's Mansion's forces were naturally led by the five most powerful influences of the Central Plains. They joined forces with many other influences to guard it.
But to be specific, even if there were checks and balances, the five regions' of the eye still held the initiative. In each of the five Central Plains Cities, there was a secret existence of a powerful warrior from a certain domain. This was a secret that was tacitly permitted.
And in this Central Yuan City, the one who held the initiative was the Fire Xuan Region. The City Lord Mansion was guarded by experts from the Fire Xuan Region. Normally, they wouldn't come out and reveal themselves, as if they didn't exist. However, everyone who knew the inside story knew that if something really important happened, the Fire Profound Region would still be the main force in the City Lord Mansion.
Yan Chutian didn't know this information until Yan Ningzhu suddenly told him when they were leaving the inn. Although Yan Chutian didn't believe it easily, he had a feeling that this was the truth.
At the end of the day, they were the five largest factions in the Central Plains. They were definitely the main force behind the opening of the five safety passages. How could they possibly allow the other factions to be on equal footing with them? They had to take the initiative.
However, Yan Ningzhu actually knew such a secret. Yan Chutian couldn't help but look at her a few more times. Could it be that she was also a member of one of the factions in the Central Plains? Otherwise, how could she know all this?
Stepping into the City Lord Mansion, there was a luxurious marble staircase. There was a wide field that was no worse than the square in the city. There were many guards standing around the field, and each of them gave off the aura of a Meridian Opening Realm cultivator.
Perhaps a single Channel Opening Realm cultivator was disdainful, but when there were hundreds or even thousands of cultivators, it was a terrifying force. Even those at the peak of Spirit Transformation or even the peak of Spirit Transformation would not dare to underestimate them.
Moreover, there were some Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators among the guards. They were the leaders, and with them in command, the strength of the guards would be even more terrifying.
There were already some cultivators standing in the center of the field. Yan Chutian quickly glanced around and saw many figures, such as Hu Kun and Hu Xing Er, the Mirage Sect's genius, Hua Yama, the middle-aged man at the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and so on.
The appearance of these people was not outside of his expectations, so he did not pay much attention to them. However, when he saw the owner of the pair of eyes filled with hatred, he could not help but be puzzled. The owner of this pair of eyes was Xuan Kun!
Yan Chutian clearly remembered that Xuan Kun should have been eliminated by Yan Ningzhu that day. How could he appear here today?
"The factions of the five regions control most of the slots for the safe passage, and the Blue Moon Sect has always intended to rely on the Fire Profound Region. It seems that the Blue Moon Sect paid a great price to obtain this slot for him."
Suddenly, a deliberately low and clear voice echoed in Yan Chutian's ears. He raised his head and looked over. The owner of the voice was none other than Yan Ningzhu, who was disguised as a man again.
Yan Ningzhu's words dispelled the doubts in Yan Chutian's heart. In fact, how could he understand the reasoning behind it? What was the difference between a cultivator and a mortal? There would always be loopholes to exploit.
Before she finished speaking, Xuan Kun, who was not far away, walked towards a young man who was surrounded by many people outside the arena. The young man was about 20 years old. He had an arrogant look on his face. Even when he looked at Hu Kun and the other geniuses, his eyes were filled with arrogance.
At this moment, even without Yan Ningzhu's words, Yan Chutian could guess that this young man should be a disciple of the Fire Profound Region. Xuan Kun said something to the arrogant young man. In the next moment, he looked over from afar. He looked down at the young man with disdain before withdrawing his gaze.
Then, the arrogant young man nodded slightly, which made Xuan Kun smile. Xuan Kun's cold gaze suddenly shot over. It was as if he was looking at a fish on a chopping board.
"It seems that he has hooked up with that guy from the Fire Profound Region. He will most likely attack us in the safe passage!"
Yan Ningzhu secretly said, revealing the identity of the arrogant young man. Yan Chutian frowned slightly. He was not afraid of the arrogant young man, but he was afraid that there would be an elder from the Fire Profound Region in the safe passage. With his current cultivation and means, he was still not a match for those who had cultivated for a long time.
However, Yan Ningzhu's next words made Yan Chutian dispel his worries and completely relax.
"We might be a little afraid of him in this Central Plains City, but as long as we enter the safe passage, we don't have to worry. The safe passage is not an ordinary road. It costs a lot of resources to send anyone in, so the quota is strictly controlled. "
"Many forces, including the forces of the five regions, are very confident in their own geniuses and will not send people in to protect them. Moreover, it is just as they thought. Almost no one from them has met with an accident in the safe passage. The only ones who have met with an accident are the rogue cultivators and the weak. "
Yan Chutian did not say anything when he heard this. He just nodded slightly, then narrowed his eyes and looked at Xuan Kun and the arrogant young man.
