"Brother Xiao Yao, it's so beautiful!" Ling Er looked at the towering city in front of her and couldn't help but open her mouth and sigh. Her lively eyes were also sluggish.
Ling Er seemed to know that her heart was aching for Yi Feng. Along the way, she kept asking for Yi Feng to carry her. Even with Yi Feng's strength, he still felt a little sore after carrying Ling Er for so long.
Yi Feng looked at the city in front of him. It was located at the peak of a mountain. Even though Yi Feng had just arrived, he could still feel its magnificence and grandeur. The city seemed to be the same color as the sky, high up in the sky! This city wasn't as luxurious as the imperial capital, but it was simple and grand. Especially the fortress-like buildings that pierced through the clouds, it was extremely shocking.
"We're finally here!"
Yi Feng let out a long sigh. After more than a month of non-stop travel, everyone except Ling 'er was a little tired.
Liu Mengran's soul was also taken away by the city in front of her. The city that was located at the peak of a mountain made people feel that they were infinitely close to heaven and earth. There was a rumor that this city was built by the first emperor of the azure blue empire. He spent countless gold coins, a monarch rank, more than ten monarchs, and countless people working together to build this city in five years.
Yi Feng couldn't imagine the concept of a monarch rank and more than ten monarchs. In the current azure blue empire, even if they had the power of the entire empire, they wouldn't be able to find so many strong people. It could be seen how difficult it was to build this city on the peak of a mountain.
However, it was also because so many strong people worked together that this city was known as the most magnificent and shocking city in the azure blue empire. At the same time, because the spiritual energy in this city was extremely dense, it was once a fief that the nobles yearned for. However, for some reason, this city faded out of the nobles' sight. This shocking fortress city actually had a delicate name — Peaceful Fragrance City! Legend had it that this was the place where the azure blue emperor and his most beloved concubine met. It was another bedroom outside the imperial palace.
"Young master! Let's go up! " Liu Mengran said to Yi Feng. Looking at the stone steps leading to the city, she only wanted to rest early.
Yi Feng nodded and carried Ling 'er, who was restless in Yi Feng's arms, up the mountain.
Along the way, when Old Liu saw the happy expressions on Yi Feng and the others' faces, he finally said, "Do you know the other two names of Jingxin City?"
Yi Feng looked at Elder Liu in surprise. He nodded and said, "When I was in the sect, I heard the elders say that the current Jingxin City is called the City of Slaughter, also known as the City of Sin!"
Elder Liu looked at Yi Feng in surprise. He originally thought that Yi Feng did not know, which was why he brought them to this city. When Elder Liu heard Liu Mengran mention this city, he recalled the scene he saw here back then. Although he was not optimistic about Yi Feng coming here, Liu Mengran's happy expression made him swallow all the words of dissuasion.
As long as it was their young miss's orders, he would support it unconditionally.
"But do you understand the meaning of these two names?"
Yi Feng was slightly startled and said, "Please explain, Elder Liu!"
When Elder Liu heard Yi Feng say these two words, he originally thought that Yi Feng knew the story of the City of Sin. However, he did not expect that Yi Feng had only heard of the name.
"In the past, Jingxin City was a fief that all nobles wanted to own. Even the previous emperors of the azure blue empire used this place as a leisure palace. However, all of this changed a few hundred years ago. After that, although the azure blue royal family also ruled over the City of Sin, they gradually forgot about it. Occasionally, they would send a city lord here, but in less than a month, they would either die suddenly or return home. "Elder Liu said faintly.
Yi Feng was startled and asked in surprise, "Why is that?"
"A few hundred years ago, the azure blue empire's emperor stole a poison master's woman and imprisoned him in Jingxin City. That poison master was so angry that he used his poison techniques to massacre the entire city to take revenge on the azure blue emperor. That day, the entire city was covered in corpses and blood flowed like a river. There were no survivors in the entire Jingxin City. If that azure blue emperor wasn't in Jingxin City and luckily escaped, he would have died in the hands of that poison master. It was also because of this poison master's ruthlessness and terror that the continent's experts were completely shocked and frightened. After all, there were two monarchs in Jingxin City at that time, but they were also poisoned to death! Because of him, the continent's poison masters became street rats and everyone wanted to kill them. Even after a few hundred years, the continent's poison masters don't dare to reveal their identities. "Elder Liu looked at Yi Feng and said.
Yi Feng was startled. He did not expect the poison masters' reputation to be in this city.
"Could it be because of this that the azure blue royal family gradually gave up on Jingxin City?" Yi Feng asked doubtfully.
Elder Liu nodded and said, "This is a very big reason. Because within a few hundred years after the incident, because of the poison techniques, no one could live. Even now, there are still remnants of the poison techniques from back then. "
Yi Feng was speechless. This poison master was really awesome. The poison that he used a few hundred years ago still had remnants. It could be seen how terrifying he was. No wonder he could cause panic in the continent. This poison master should be comparable to a monarch.
"But what does this have to do with Sin City?" Yi Feng asked doubtfully.
"It's because too many people died back then. Ordinary people did not dare to come to this city. Slowly, those who dared to come to this level were the criminals who committed countless murders. Think about it, those martial artists who did not care about human lives entered this city. What kind of scene would that be? "Elder Liu said.
Yi Feng frowned slightly. He seemed to understand a little. It wouldn't matter if it was just one or two devils, but countless devils were gathered in this city. These people were originally restless people. When they met, wouldn't they turn the sky upside down? If there was a disagreement, they would start to fight.
"There's another reason. After some criminals killed people, they had no choice but to hide in Sin City. There's an unwritten rule in Sin City. That is, if you come to Sin City, the government will give up on pursuing you and let you fend for yourself in Sin City. It's also because of this that more and more people gather in Sin City. Moreover, they're all bandits. "Elder Liu explained.
Yi Feng took a deep breath. He did not expect Sin City to have such a rule.
When Elder Liu said this, he seemed to be reminiscing. He said faintly, "Decades ago, I came here with the young master once. I deeply felt the annihilation of humanity here. It was as if killing was their only pursuit here."
Yi Feng did not understand why Elder Liu suddenly had a young master, but he knew better than to ask.
"As the owner of Jingxin City, wouldn't I be very sad?" Yi Feng laughed bitterly.
Elder Liu shook his head and said faintly, "Since you chose this place, then you have to pay a price. I don't expect you to suppress everyone, but at least no one dares to mess with you. You have to let the young miss and the others stay in this city quietly."
Yi Feng nodded slightly, "Don't worry, Elder Liu. I want to see who is blind."
