In the southern regions of the immortal realms, the Namhwang Clan was an extremely ancient power that had existed for countless years.
The Namhwang Clan had the noble bloodline of the phoenix. Only females could become the supreme leader of the Namhwang Clan, the Southern Phoenix Matriarch.
The foundations of the Namhwang Clan far surpassed the foundations of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor and the Thousand Transformations Immortal Emperor. They were one of the ancient sacred grounds of the immortal realms and had an extremely strong influence in the vast southern regions. Although they didn't directly govern the southern regions, the power of the Namhwang Clan could cover the entire southern regions. Every action of the Namhwang Clan could cause the entire region to tremble.
The Southern Phoenix Immortal City was where the Namhwang Clan was located. This place was directly governed by the Namhwang Clan and could be said to be the headquarters of the Namhwang Clan. With regards to the Southern Phoenix Immortal City, the Namhwang Clan had absolute control over it. The Namhwang Clan's businesses could be found all over the city and the army of the Namhwang Clan was in charge of the rules of the city.
This immortal city was one of the safest cities in the entire immortal realms.
The teleportation arrays in the Southern Phoenix Immortal City were heavily guarded. More and more teleportation arrays flashed with dazzling spatial lights as people appeared. There were only two types of people who could use the teleportation arrays. The first type was those with extraordinary statuses and could use the teleportation arrays of the major powers. The second type was the wealthy and powerful Wu Xiu who paid a huge price to use the teleportation arrays of the major powers.
At this moment, another teleportation array lit up. The spatial fluctuations were extremely intense, causing many guards to turn their attention over. The strength of spatial energy represented the distance between the teleportation arrays. From the looks of it, this teleportation array should be from an extremely faraway place.
A bright light flashed as two handsome young men appeared. They glanced at their surroundings before stepping out.
"Where are the two of you from?" A guard walked up to check. Qin Wentian waved his hand as the invitation card floated towards the guard. The guard glanced at the insignia on the card as his eyes flashed. After that, he bowed, "Young Lord Qin, please enter the city."
"I heard that the Southern Phoenix Immortal City has some rules. Can you tell me about them?" Qin Wentian asked.
"There are indeed some rules. In the Southern Phoenix Immortal City, no one is allowed to kill the innocent, bully the weak, rob or steal. The Southern Phoenix Army will not interfere in small conflicts, but if it involves heavily injuring an opponent or destroying the wealth of the innocent, these are not allowed. Killing is also prohibited. Unless both parties are willing to step onto the Southern Phoenix Arena, only then can they engage in a life and death battle." The guard explained, "There are no other rules. Since Young Master Qin is the Saintess's girlfriend, you can ask the Saintess for help if you encounter any trouble."
"Alright, thank you." Qin Wentian smiled and nodded. After that, he and Jun Mengchen entered the Southern Phoenix Immortal City together. This immortal city was ancient and majestic. The density of the buildings was moderate, and all sorts of industries were flourishing. Experts were as common as the clouds, and with a single glance, immortal-foundation characters could be seen everywhere.
"They are Saint's girlfriends? Which Saint is it? What's the identity of this person? "The other guards curiously asked after Qin Wentian left.
"Holy Maiden Yun Xi, she invited him to participate in the immortal banquet. Seems like their relationship is very good. As for his name, I've never heard of it before. His name is Qin Wentian. There doesn't seem to be any great emperors in the immortal realms with the surname 'Qin'," the guard replied in a low voice.
"It's actually Holy Maiden Yun Xi. This fellow's luck with women isn't bad. Holy Maiden Yun Xi not only has outstanding talent, she's also a supreme beauty." The guard at the side smiled.
"All of you shut up." Someone at the side cursed in a low voice.
"Yes, captain." The guards all smiled, but they didn't continue speaking.
Qin Wentian and Jun Mengchen walked through the Southern Phoenix Immortal City. As they stared at the ancient-looking buildings and palaces, they faintly understood why the rules of the Southern Phoenix Immortal City were so strict.
"The industries in the Southern Phoenix Immortal City are truly developed. With a single glance, I can see that immortal-ranked weapons and immortal-ranked cultivation arts are all over the place. How many treasures would there be in this city? Most probably, as long as you have enough wealth, you wouldn't need to worry about lacking treasures." Jun Mengchen sighed.
"This has always been relative. For stellar martial cultivators, it's easier for them to obtain wealth and treasures. For weaker stellar martial cultivators, they can only depend on others or take risks. The reason why the Southern Phoenix Immortal City is so prosperous is naturally because of the strict rules. For stellar martial cultivators who enter here, there's no need to worry about their safety." Qin Wentian understood the law of the jungle in the immortal realms. If you were weak, even if you had treasures on you, you wouldn't dare to take them out to trade. The Southern Phoenix Immortal City would naturally provide you with protection.
"Mhm, as expected of an ancient and powerful clan. For those with powerful backgrounds in the immortal realms, they would definitely be willing to stay in such an immortal city. They would be able to ensure the safety of their family members and they can roam the world with peace of mind." Jun Mengchen spoke.
"You are right. But given how many people there are in the immortal realms, who wouldn't want to stay in such an immortal city? I'm afraid it wouldn't be so simple if one wanted to own a piece of land in the Southern Phoenix Immortal City. Didn't you hear what the guard said? The buildings here are not allowed to be destroyed. All of them are considered private property." Qin Wentian laughed. "The Namhwang Clan built the Southern Phoenix Immortal City to such a flourishing state. The value of this city is something that you and I can't imagine."
"What's that?" Jun Mengchen pointed ahead. There, the Shadow of a phoenix could be seen shining resplendently in the air.
"Let's go take a look." Their silhouettes flickered as they headed towards the source of the light. Not long after, they arrived there and saw the projection of the phoenix enveloping the entire space. Two silhouettes were currently engaged in a fierce battle.
"Phoenix Arena." Qin Wentian and Jun Mengchen spoke at the same time. They instantly understood that this was the Phoenix Arena that the guard spoke of. Only when both parties were willing to step onto the Phoenix Arena would they be able to engage in a life-and-death battle. There must be some Wu Xiu who had deep grievances between them and they needed a place to vent their anger.
"Let's go." After a few moments, the victor of the battle between the two was decided. One was killed and the two of them stepped onto the Phoenix Arena. Both of them had deep grudges against each other, how could they show mercy?
Qin Wentian and Jun Mengchen checked the direction and used immortal-ranked weapons to speed towards the direction of the Namhwang Clan. However, they still took a long time before they arrived at the outer perimeter of the Namhwang Clan. From afar, there was an incomparably majestic ancient phoenix that was extremely vivid and lifelike. It seemed as though it wanted to soar into the sky with the wind. This ancient phoenix was incomparably gigantic, towering over the heavens and earth. It was the exterior of the entire Namhwang Clan, exuding a tyrannical aura.
"Senior Martial Brother, should we go in and look for Namhwang Yunxi now?" Jun Mengchen asked.
"There's no rush, it's fine as long as we find the place. Two days later is the day of Namhwang Yunxi's immortal banquet. We'll go look for Namhwang Yunxi two days later and directly attend the banquet. If we go in now, should we let Namhwang Yunxi accompany us to stroll around the Immortal City?" Qin Wentian smiled and shook his head. Jun Mengchen smiled and said foolishly, "Such a big beauty, only Senior Martial Brother can remain unmoved. But that's understandable, both sisters-in-law are beauties that can cause the downfall of cities and empires. They are not inferior to Namhwang Yunxi at all."
"Why? Do you have feelings for Namhwang Yunxi?" Qin Wentian smiled and said.
"Don't say that I don't have any feelings for her. Even if I do, Namhwang Yunxi has no interest in me. After all, only your name is on the invitation card." Jun Mengchen spoke. "Oh ya, Senior Martial Brother, you asked Little Rascal to stay behind to accompany sisters-in-law. Where's Purgatory? Why don't I see her?"
"Purgatory and I are originally one. If you want to see her, I'll let you take a look." Qin Wentian laughed. His bloodline surged as a blood-colored light flashed as the silhouette of Purgatory appeared, transforming into a devilish beauty.
"Purgatory is actually a female and she's so beautiful. Senior, I'm impressed." Jun Mengchen laughed, feeling somewhat jealous of this senior martial brother of his. Beauties were as common as the clouds around him.
At this moment, whistling sounds rang out as four silhouettes flew over. The person in the lead was a young man with eyes as deep as the abyss. His gaze landed on Purgatory as a dazzling light flickered in his eyes.
"Fairy, are you a Vermilion Bird?" The young man asked. Purgatory frowned as a cold intent radiated from her.
"What's the matter?" Qin Wentian faintly asked.
"Sir, what's your relationship with her?" The young man glanced at Qin Wentian as he asked.
"My companion." Qin Wentian replied.
"A companion demonic beast? You should have subdued it right?" That young man laughed. In the immortal realms, there were some people with extraordinary luck who managed to subdue powerful demonic beasts when they were still young. Such situations were very common.
"He's my master, but what does that have to do with you?" Purgatory stared at the young man as she asked.
"As expected of a Purgatory Vermilion Bird. What a fiery temper and such a beauty." The young man laughed. "Sir, your luck is truly good. Can you trade this demonic beast with me? What price do you want?"
"No need, please do as you please." Qin Wentian frowned, his tone filled with unhappiness. How could he use Purgatory to trade with others?
"This demonic beast is extremely useful to me. Brother, why don't you name a higher price?" The young man continued, his eyes blazing with heat. Such a beautiful Purgatory Vermilion Bird was extremely rare. If he could tame it, it would be a wondrous thing.
"You don't understand human speech?" Jun Mengchen impolitely spoke. This person made him loathe Purgatory Vermilion Bird. But at this moment, one of the people behind the young man stepped out as a powerful aura enveloped Qin Wentian and the others. This person was none other than an extremely powerful expert.
"Are you all preparing to trample on the rules of the Southern Phoenix Immortal City?" Qin Wentian laughed.
"Rules are dead, humans are alive. Let me give you a word of advice, be tactful. This young master is a guest of the Namhwang Clan. Even if we don't act now, it wouldn't be difficult for us to act against you in the future." Another person beside the young man had a cold expression on his face as he threatened.
