My place is on fire

Chapter 1096 The Shangguan clan’s base!

The Sky City is not the end for Luo Xuning.

This is just a small 'station' where he temporarily stops on his life journey.

He doesn't have much sense of belonging here.

At first, I just came to the city to purchase some supplies, and I don’t have any feelings for this place.

If there is one thing that I miss the most about the City in the Sky, it would be Shangguan Qingluan who is by my side.

Help her and her family fulfill their long-cherished wish, and it's time for Luo Xuning to leave here.

He and Lori followed the giant squid to the world of Sky City in search of the holy relic ring.

Now, although the relic ring has not been opened yet, I have obtained it by chance.

All the evil sounds in the body have been expelled, and his strength has returned to its peak.

When he subdued the giant Tianyin dragon, he obtained a large number of treasures in the cave.

He also accumulated a huge amount of cultivation resources by killing Sikong Zhen and Chunyu Yunqing.

Luo Xuning's trip to the Sky City was quite successful.

All objectives have been achieved and huge amounts of unexpected wealth have been obtained.

Besides, it has been almost a year since I left the Ape Forest, so it’s time to return.

The secret realm of the mother tree in the Yuanshi Forest is the same as the secret realm of the Red Heart Valley here, both of which are opened once a year.

The spirits of plants and trees within the secret realm of the mother tree are extremely precious resources.

Inside the secret realm, the resources dropped by the elite guardian beasts in the underground space are also rare resources.

Luo Xuning gained a lot from his last trip there, so he certainly wouldn't miss it this time.

Moreover, this time, Luo Xuning's strength is much stronger than last time.

He was confident that he could kill more guardian beasts and obtain more resources.

Therefore, he must rush back before the secret realm of the mother tree opens.

If you miss this time, you'll have one less chance.

This time he can only stay on the Planet of the Apes for a maximum of 10 years.

At most you can enter the secret realm of the mother tree 10 times. Any less than that would be a huge waste.

In order to resolve the Sky City issue as soon as possible, Luo Xuning resorted to more violent means.

He didn't have time to play tricks like winning people over with virtue with those people in the City Lord's Mansion.

Surrender or die, there are only two choices!

At this moment, Luo Xuning no longer deliberately suppressed his strength. He opened up all his aura and momentum!

"What a powerful aura..."

"I have never felt such a strong pressure from the city lord before. He said he killed the city lord. It seems possible!"

"The two captains had no ability to resist him at all. They were killed in one blow. That is the best proof."

Feeling the powerful aura emanating from Luo Xuning, combined with the tragic end of Jin Zeping and Shan Fengyun just now.

The members of the elite guard instantly lost all thought of resistance.

No match at all!

They are not even in the same league!
Although a large number of ants can kill an elephant, the number needs to reach a certain level!
One hundred thousand won't do, then one million, ten million, one hundred million...

Of course, the elite guards can also kill Luo Xuning, but the number of people would have to be at least a thousand times greater to make it possible!
Just after being disturbed by the giant Tianyin dragon for a while, the elite guard team's casualties have reached 30%.

The few remaining people may not be enough for Luo Xuning to warm up!
The reason why the Elite Guard is called the Elite Guard is that it refers to the ordinary people and warriors of the Sky City.

To ordinary people and warriors, every member of the elite guard is an elite.

but……

To Luo Xuning, they were just larger ants at best.

It was easy for Luo Xuning to kill them, no more effort than crushing an ant.

"I am willing to surrender."

"I am willing to surrender!"

"I would like to..."

Faced with the powerful momentum released by Luo Xuning, coupled with the news he had just announced.

Some members of the guard team who had previously planned to fight to the death also gave up the idea of ​​resistance.

Two captains died in the battle, and even their own city lord was killed.

What loyalty are we talking about now?
Being loyal to a dead person is truly foolish loyalty!

The remaining 568 members of the elite guard all surrendered and were willing to serve Luo Xuning and Shangguan Qingluan.

Luo Xuning added the mark of soul contract to each member of the guard team one by one.

In a sense, these people have become slaves of Luo Xunning.

"what!!"

"what!!!"

"what……"

A dozen guards who pretended to surrender were still unwilling to give in after Luo Xuning planted soul marks on them.

These people instantly turned into dust and drifted away in the air.

"After planting the soul mark, if you want to betray, this will be the result."

Luo Xuning's emotionless voice reached the ears of the remaining guard members, and none of them dared to have any dissenting thoughts anymore.

"From now on, you will all obey Shangguan Qingluan's orders. Seeing her is like seeing me, and her orders are my orders."

Luo Xuning pointed his finger at Shangguan Qingluan and gave orders to more than 500 members of the escort team.

"understand!"

"understand!"

After seeing the miserable end of their companions, everyone began to be loyal to Luo Xuning.

As long as you follow instructions and commands, you can live well and continue to enjoy life.

In the future, after conquering the Sky City, you can also reunite with your family.

It's just a change of loyalty!

The members of the guard quickly accepted the reality and convinced themselves.

"Husband..."

Shangguan Qingluan looked at Luo Xuning with eyes full of gratitude.

More than 500 of the most powerful elite guards of Sky City are definitely a very powerful force!
Sikong Zhen and Chunyu Yunqing had been killed by Luo Xuning.

The City Lord's Mansion's most powerful elite guard has now become his own private armed force and obeys his orders.

The Shangguan family's great mission of regaining control of the Sky City is almost 90% successful!

Originally, it could be said that there was no hope for the Shangguan family.

Now, it can be achieved immediately!

At this moment, Shangguan Qingluan's gratitude and love for Luo Xuning could no longer be described in words.

"Let's go, Qingluan. Didn't you say you wanted to go back to your tribe first?"

Luo Xuning looked at Shangguan Qingluan with a relaxed smile on his face.

"Yes! It takes about 10 days to travel from here to our tribe."

"If my father saw what we have achieved now, he would be shocked." Shangguan Qingluan thought of herself leading more than 500 elite guard members back to the tribe.

When he told his father the news that Sikong Zhen and Chunyu Yunqing had been killed.

The look on his face must have been fascinating!
Shangguan Qingluan's father is named Shangguan Hu, the current head of the Shangguan family, with average strength at level 8.

Under the high-intensity suppression of the Sikong family, while surviving in the cracks, he was able to cultivate to the intermediate level of the 8th level.

Shangguan Hu has worked very hard.

The resources within the family are limited and cannot support the training of too many warriors.

Therefore, Shangguan Hu used several connections to send his daughter Shangguan Qingluan to Miaoyin Sect to practice and study.

Shangguan Qingluan practiced hard in Miaoyin Sect and it took him more than 30 years to become an elder of Miaoyin Sect. He was considered very talented.

After becoming an elder of Miaoyin Sect, he had more resources at his disposal, and Shangguan Qingluan also secretly provided a lot of aid to his family.

but……

Facing the powerful City Lord's Mansion and Sikong Zhen, who has surpassed the 9th-level warriors and reached the level of a grandmaster.

Shangguan Qingluan and her father Shangguan Hu increasingly felt the gap between them.

More than ten years ago, Shangguan Qingluan returned to the clan under the pretext of going out for training.

Her father Shangguan Hu had already warned her not to think about taking over the Sky City anymore.

Over thousands of years, Sikong Zhen has accumulated a large amount of manpower, material and financial resources.

His own strength has also improved by leaps and bounds.

He instantly became the recognized combat power ceiling of Sky City.

During the same thousands of years, the Shangguan family hid from place to place, hiding their identities and names, and each generation of the family declined.

Today, the number of members of the entire Shangguan family is less than 1000.

I’m afraid there are even fewer servants in the City Lord’s Mansion!

The gap between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger, and they are no longer opponents of the same level.

It has become impossible for the Shangguan family to return to the City Lord's Mansion.

Who would have thought that today, this impossible thing would become possible again.

Just one kick away and it will be achieved!
It is no exaggeration to say that if Luo Xuning leads the remaining 500-odd elite guard members back to the Sky City now, it will take less than an hour to break through the defense of the City Lord's Mansion and take control of it!

It is easy for him to seize the position of city lord!

In the face of absolute strength, no obstacle is an obstacle, and no problem is a problem!

After a few simple words, Luo Xuning, Shangguan Qingluan, Loli, and Haitang Qianxue sat back on the back of the Tianyin giant dragon.

The more than 500 elite guard members naturally did not have this treatment and could only fly behind by themselves.

The group left in a mighty manner and flew towards the direction where the Shangguan family lived in seclusion.

"The sky is changing in the castle in the sky~"

"Just now I heard that the woman seemed to be from the Shangguan family. Could it be the Shangguan family of the previous generation of the royal family?"

"Nonsense! Besides that Shangguan family, there is another Shangguan family? Who dares to pretend to be the Shangguan family? Do you think your life is too long?"

"The strength of the man in white is too strong. With one move, he crippled the two captains of the elite guard team..."

"I originally thought that a 9th-level warrior was already very powerful, but today I realized that I was too inexperienced. A 9th-level warrior can also be cannon fodder sometimes!"

"That man... gives me the feeling that he is not from this world."

"Indeed, with his ability, it is impossible for him to remain unknown for so many years. He would have become famous long ago."

"Indeed, even if they act low-key, I've never seen anyone so low-key!"

"..."

After Luo Xuning and his group left, the onlookers who had not had time to run far away from the Chixin Valley dungeon started talking about it, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

The Sikong family has ruled the Sky City for thousands of years.

If they are really driven away this time, it will definitely be the biggest thing that has happened in the Sky City in thousands of years!
With the new master, Sky City is bound to enter a new cycle, and many forces will be reshuffled.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh--!

The Tianyin giant dragon deliberately lowered its flying speed to the same speed as the more than 500 elite guard members behind it.

With ancient ferocious beasts like the Tianyin Giant Dragon leading the way, no strange beasts dared to cause trouble along the way.

The journey that would have taken more than ten days was completed in just six days.

In order to conceal her whereabouts, Miaoyin Qingluan last returned to the family gathering place more than a year ago.

Usually, she communicates with her family by sending messages via carrier birds.

"Husband, my family is on the mountain ahead!"

Miaoyin Qingluan pointed at a mountain floating in the air with some excitement and introduced it to Luo Xuning.

The mountain is about 7000 meters high, stretches for more than ten kilometers, and is extremely vast.

The whole mountain looks lush and green, covered with various tall trees.

Luo Xuning glanced at the mountain floating in front of him and smiled: "The environment looks pretty good."

The mountains in the Sky City look much more beautiful than those on Earth, and there is no such thing as low temperatures due to the altitude.

The entire mountain, whether at the foot or the top, has a constant temperature.

Moreover, the gravity of this mountain is similar to that of Chixin Valley.

When everyone flew to the foot of the mountain, they suddenly felt the huge gravitational force coming from the mountain, and they fell down like dumplings.

Even the giant Tianyin dragon was pulled back to the ground by the huge gravitational force.

"I don't like walking around on the ground like a snake."

After the giant Tianyin dragon landed, it muttered somewhat dissatisfiedly.

However, it tried again and again and couldn't get off the ground, so it had to give up.

"The reason why my father chose this place as our family's base was because of the strong gravitational pull of this mountain."

“Even if a master who is above the 9th level comes here, he can only walk through the forest obediently.”

"This way, it will be easier to hide."

Shangguan Qingluan had a wry smile on her face when she explained to Luo Xuning why her family chose this place.

Luo Xuning looked at Shangguan Qingluan and said with a smile: "From now on, you and your family will no longer have to hide from place to place."

"My dear, your kindness to our Shangguan family will never be forgotten by us."

Shangguan Qingluan looked at Luo Xuning with gratitude on her face, and her heart was filled with emotion.

"Why are you thanking me? You are my woman."

Luo Xuning smiled. The reason why he helped the Shangguan family was more to make up to Shangguan Qingluan.

I want to create an environment where she can have no worries before I leave.

Of course, you can also complete [The King and the Clown] by the way.

It’s also good to have one more chance to win the lottery.

"Let's go and meet your people."

"Well! Husband, wait a moment..."

As Shangguan Qingluan spoke, she moved her mind and took out a flute made of Tianyin bamboo from the space ring on her finger.

She put her red lips to a small hole on the far left side of the flute and blew gently, producing melodious tunes.

The notes jumped out from the holes in the flute like elves, jumped onto the treetops, and jumped into the clouds.

More than 500 members of the escort team listened to the music played by Shangguan Qingluan, with an intoxicated look on their face.
