Southern Wasteland, Fire Spirit City!
The Fire Spirit Race rarely came into contact with the outside world, but it wasn't that they didn't do anything at all. Because there were some things that didn't exist in the southern wasteland, so the Fire Spirit Race would send people out every once in a while to trade with the outside world for the things they needed!
Fire Spirit City was the place where the Fire Spirit Race traded with the outside world, and it was the only place where the Fire Spirit Race traded with the outside world. Besides this, the Fire Spirit Race wouldn't take the initiative to communicate with the outside world.
At the same time, this was the only entrance into the southern wasteland because the other places were obstructed by terrifying natural chasms and various defensive grand formations set up by the Fire Spirit Race. So, it was extremely difficult to enter!
After traveling for two days, Xiao Fan and the Little Bastard had finally arrived at Fire Spirit City!
Fire Spirit City couldn't be considered to be large, and it was only a small city that could accommodate 100,000 people. However, it was extremely prosperous. The city was bustling with people, and the streets could be said to be packed with people!
Looking at these people, almost all of them were members of various large caravans. Among them, there were large chambers of commerce that were almost comparable to the Cloud Dragon Chamber of Commerce in the entire Qingyun Lower Province. There were also small chambers of commerce that were not well known and almost no one had heard of.
When the Fire Spirit Race traded with the outside world, they were well aware of the principle of comparing goods with each other. So, they welcomed and even took the initiative to invite any merchant group to come before allowing all merchant groups to compete in order to obtain the most favorable and even the cheapest price!
It wasn't that the various merchant groups that belonged to the human race hadn't thought of joining forces to raise the price, and they'd even tried to block off the path to Fire Spirit City so that other small merchant groups couldn't enter at all. Thus, they'd monopolized the trade with the Fire Spirit Race and finally obtained the initiative in the trade.
However, the Fire Spirit Race had its own methods of restraint like assassination, sowing dissension, seduction, and so on. There was no end to their methods. So, after so many years, the various merchant groups were still unable to form an alliance, and they could only allow the Fire Spirit Race to always occupy the initiative in the trade.
Today wasn't just the Fire Spirit Race's monthly trade day, it was also the day to welcome the geniuses from all over the world into the southern wasteland for the opening of the number one danger zone tomorrow.
As a result, the Fire Spirit City was especially lively today. The number of people had increased by nearly ten times compared to the previous trading days, causing the small Fire Spirit City to become extremely bloated. Walking within it, one would feel as if they were unable to breathe.
As Xiao Fan walked through the Fire Spirit City, the Little Bastard obediently hid in his arms. It didn't even dare to poke its head out. It could only release its Divine Sense to sense everything around it.
"Where is the gate that leads to the Southern Wasteland in the Fire Spirit City?" Xiao Fan asked the Little Bastard in a low voice after glancing at the bustling crowd in the surroundings.
Even though Xiao Fan had been to the Southern Wasteland in the past and went to the most dangerous place, the Fire Spirit Race hadn't established the Fire Spirit City at that time. Xiao Fan and the others had directly entered the Southern Wasteland through other places. So, Xiao Fan really didn't know where the entrance to the Southern Wasteland was located!
The Little Bastard had been to the Southern Wasteland before, so he should know!
"It's to the east of the Fire Spirit City!" The Little Bastard lowered its voice as if it was extremely afraid of being discovered. It said, "That's the Fire Spirit Race's trading manor. Behind the manor is the gate that leads to the Southern Wasteland!"
Xiao Fan nodded to show that he understood. After that, he immediately lifted his foot and directly headed towards the east of the Fire Spirit City.
After a short moment, Xiao Fan arrived at the east of the Fire Spirit City and arrived before the Fire Spirit Race's trading manor. Compared to other places, the people here were even more bustling. As far as the eye could see, there was a dense mass of people.
At this moment, because the gates to the Fire Spirit Race's trading manor hadn't opened yet, everyone was gathered outside the gates. They were casually discussing with each other as they waited for the gates to open.
"Have you heard? Two days ago, Li Changqing and Xiao Fan fought at the peak of the Myriad Swords Mountain. In the end, not only did Li Changqing die on the spot, even the four Myriad Swords Sect's Elders and some of the Myriad Swords Sect's descendants who were protecting Li Changqing perished! "Someone spoke with a sigh.
"Isn't that so?" Someone sighed endlessly as well. "Li Changqing's name shook the world. In the current world, only a few people like Tuoba Liuyun could rival him. Everyone thought that he would surely become an overlord of our Ascension Lower Continent in the future. In the end, who would have imagined that he would perish at Xiao Fan's hands and become a passing cloud?"
"Since Xiao Fan made a name for himself, he has never lost a single time. He's really capable of killing gods and buddhas. No one can stop him at all!" Someone exclaimed with admiration.
"See, I don't believe that no one can stop Xiao Fan!" Someone puckered his lips and said, "The Dark Sky Sect, the Tuoba family, and the Saintly Land of Daye haven't made a move yet!"
"Throughout the world, Xiao Fan practically doesn't have any allies. He only has enemies that are overflowing with killing intent!" Someone spoke in a serious tone. "So, I wonder exactly how far he can go!"
"Can his undefeated legend continue like this?"
"I'm afraid that won't happen!" Someone shrugged and said, "Tuoba Liuyun, Xuan Tianzi, and Yuwen Ji led an army to destroy the Man Long Army, the Sacred Flame Sect, and the Cloud Dragon Chamber of Commerce. This means that the Tuoba family, the Dark Sky Sect, and the Saintly Land of Daye have officially begun to make a move!"
"Even if Xiao Fan has the Silent Hill's Third Brother and an unknown giant to protect him, he may not be enough to deal with the Tuoba family, the Dark Sky Sect, and the Saintly Land of Daye!"
"Perhaps Xiao Fan can defeat the Tuoba family, the Dark Sky Sect, and the Saintly Land of Daye?" Someone blurted out. This was a young man of about 18 or 19 years old. His mature face still had a hint of immaturity.
"Hahaha!"
Hearing this voice, after a short pause, everyone in the surroundings burst into laughter. The laughter was so loud that it attracted the attention of those who were further away. Then, they joined in the laughter.
"Defeat the Tuoba family, the Dark Sky Sect, and the Saintly Land of Daye? That's the funniest joke I've ever heard! " Someone laughed so hard that he couldn't catch his breath. After a while, he finally managed to stop himself from laughing and said.
"That's also the funniest joke I've ever heard!" Many people laughed loudly, and their laughter shook the sky.
"What's so funny about that? It's not impossible! " This young man of about 18 or 19 years old was blushing from everyone's laughter. He seemed to want to find a hole to hide in. He gritted his teeth and said, unwilling to admit defeat.
"Child, don't even think about it. It's impossible!" An old man said with a hint of laughter in his voice. He shook his head and said, "Xiao Fan is very strong, but the strength of the Tuoba family, the Dark Sky Sect, and the Saintly Land of Daye is definitely beyond your imagination!"
"Against the Tuoba family, the Dark Sky Sect, and the Saintly Land of Daye, Xiao Fan doesn't have the slightest chance of winning. This is something that can't be discussed at all!"
"You should know that Xiao Fan can defeat the City Lord Mansion of Azure Splendor Ancient City. The City Lord Mansion of Azure Splendor Ancient City is something that even the Tuoba family, the Dark Sky Sect, and the Saintly Land of Daye can't do anything to!" The young man of 18 or 19 years old was still unconvinced.
"Xiao Fan being able to defeat the City Lord Mansion of Azure Splendor Ancient City has a lot to do with Princess Mu Yan. The City Lord Mansion of Azure Splendor Ancient City was careless and accidentally failed. Although it's very surprising, it's actually within reason!" The old man shook his head and explained patiently, "In fact, many people also know that the City Lord Mansion of Azure Splendor Ancient City doesn't have any experts overseeing it. They only rely on the various terrifying killing weapons passed down by their ancestors!"
"With Princess Mu Yan acting as a spy, it would be strange if the City Lord Mansion of Azure Splendor Ancient City could use those killing weapons. Without those killing weapons, the City Lord Mansion of Azure Splendor Ancient City would be like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. It's only logical that Xiao Fan defeated it!"
The young man of 18 or 19 years old seemed to want to refute something, but he pursed his lips and couldn't say anything.
"Child, there are many things in this world that you can't just look at the surface. You have to look at the things hidden within!" The old man had a preaching look on his face as he said, "You're still too young, and your vision is too narrow. Therefore, your views on some things are still too shallow!"
"Elder Sun is right!" Someone immediately agreed. Then, he looked at the young man of 18 or 19 years old and shook his head, "Young man, who are your parents? You're really lacking in your upbringing! "
Hearing these words, the young man of 18 or 19 years old's face darkened. He didn't say a word, turned around, and left directly.
"He's even throwing a tantrum. Alas, young people nowadays are really unpredictable!" Someone looked at the back of the young man of 18 or 19 years old and shook his head repeatedly as he spoke.
"It doesn't matter. Wait until they hit a wall and suffer some losses, then they'll understand how childish and laughable they are!" Someone said with a faint smile.
Many of the older people at the side nodded in agreement.
However!
"Being young doesn't necessarily mean that one's knowledge is shallow, and being old doesn't necessarily mean that one is experienced and knowledgeable!" Suddenly, a woman's voice resounded in the crowd, and she said indifferently, "In this day and age, there are too many people who only grow old but not IQ!"
"Hmm?"
Hearing this voice, the faces of the older people turned gloomy, and they looked at the person who spoke. Xiao Fan also looked over curiously.
In next to no time, everyone's gazes were focused on the figure of a young woman. She wore fiery red clothes, had a pretty face, and a graceful figure. Moreover, there was a middle aged man standing by her side. This middle aged man had a scholarly expression, and he seemed like a middle aged scholar.
"Hmm?"
Xiao Fan was instantly surprised when he saw the young woman in fiery red clothes and the scholarly middle aged man. Because Xiao Fan knew them. They were the father and daughter, Shangguan Tong and Shangguan Chen, whom he'd met in Red Rock City and rescued by Xiao Fan in the end!
