Life-devouring emperor

Chapter 34 Xuan Zi Wins

Luocheng, one of the nine major cities within the territory of Shan Kingdom, is incomparably magnificent.The entire main city of Luocheng is as large as fifty miles in radius, and a million people can live in the main city. There are many small towns within the territory of Luocheng, and the land is infinitely vast. However, perhaps because it is far away from the royal capital, the people here There are fewer strong ones than the few cities that rely on the capital.

Except for the capital of the kingdom, each of the nine major cities in Shan Kingdom has a city lord, and the lord of Luo City is the Wu Ding family.Since the founding of the Shan Kingdom, the city lords of the eight major cities have been determined, all of whom were great contributors during the founding of the Shan Kingdom, and the positions of the eight major city lords are all hereditary.It can be said that within a city, the city lord is a local emperor. Except for the tasks issued by the capital, generally speaking, the words of the city lord are the truth.

The Wu Ding Clan was originally the main line of a sect, but 500 years ago, with Shan Xiong, the founding monarch of the Shan Kingdom, he conquered the mountains and rivers of hundreds of millions of miles, and became the overlord in Luo City.

Wu Dingwenqiang, the current Lord of Luo City, is twenty-two in his forties. It is said that he was a strong man in the early stage of Wuhuang. Lu is only 20 years old this year, but he is also a strong mid-term martial artist.

In addition to the local overlord of Luo City, the Wu Ding Clan, the powerful forces in Luo City also include the Chen Clan, Niu Clan, Ming Yang Palace, and Luo Sheng Clan.Among these forces, there are at least six Martial Emperor powerhouses. They are the strongest forces in Luo City except for the Wu Ding clan. The Ding clan is listed as a power at the same level.

Under these five major forces, there are still many large and small forces in Luocheng. Some of them have several Martial Emperors but no more than six. There are at least a hundred families in Los Angeles, although there are many, but they are not comparable to those small families in small towns with one or two strong Martial Kings.

What the great powers pay attention to is the foundation, under that profound foundation, no matter what time they will not lack the existence of the Martial Emperor powerhouse.

After leaving Jiuzhaigou, Xu Hua went all the way down the Iron Mountain and headed for Los Angeles. Of course, he encountered some unscrupulous bandits along the way, all of whom were killed by Xu Hua and turned into a wave of life energy.

After two days of driving, Xu Hua finally arrived outside Los Angeles.

Looking at the three-foot-high city wall made of green granite, the passing pedestrians, the occasional sound of horseshoes, and the cold, motionless soldiers like statues in front of the city gate, Xu Hua repeatedly sighed: "As expected of Luo City, a small town like Qingshan Town can't compare with it, it's completely different!"

"But I believe that I will conquer you one day." However, Xu Hua did not have a trace of depression, but was full of passion. After all, his future is boundless. Take control of a magnificent city like Los Angeles.

Mixed in with the crowd, Xu Hua prepared to enter the city, and after paying a tael of entry fee, Xu Hua entered the city.One tael of silver may be able to provide a poor family with food and clothing for a month in Qingshan Town, but in Los Angeles City, it is only a one-time entry fee, and the gap between them is really indescribable.

Drive, drive, drive!

Three people on one side galloped on the road on horseback. The pedestrians who were on the road gave way one after another. Xu Hua also walked aside. The one who led the horse was a young man, and the two behind him seemed to be his bodyguards. , at this time he heard the conversation of people around him.

"Chen Feng and Chen Sanshao are leaving the city again. It seems that they are going to hunt monsters in the Taihang Mountains. They are really too strong."

"Chen Feng is not only very handsome, but also the third young master of the Chen family, and he is also very talented. This year, he is only [-] years old and already a strong man in the middle stage of King Wu. It is said that he is the chief candidate for the next Patriarch of the Chen family."

"Who says it's not, Chen Xuanhu, the eldest brother of the Chen family, is already 21 this year, but he is only at the mid-term strength of King Wu. In two years, he will be surpassed by Chen Sanshao. At that time, the Chen family may announce the third young master. Qualify for inheritance!"

Most people are very optimistic about Chen Sanshao, but there are still some people who are optimistic about Chen Xuanhu.

"You can't say that. Although Third Young Master is more talented, he is not as stable as First Young Master Chen. I still think that First Young Master Chen is more qualified to be the heir of the next Patriarch of the Chen family than Third Young Master."

"Actually, First Young Master Chen is not bad either. He has always been impeccable in his work. He has never made any mistakes again. Moreover, his talent is not bad, but his brilliance was overshadowed by the third young master."

Hearing the people around him talking, Xu Hua was very surprised. Although he didn't know what kind of power this Chen family was, he could have the strength of the mid-term King Wu in his twenties. Some of the small towns are sweeping the side away.

Finally, the so-called Chen Sanshao ran out of the city gate and disappeared from everyone's eyes.Xu Hua continued to move forward, seeing and hearing a lot along the way.

At this time, it was less than a month before the public examination in Luocheng, and many scholars in Luocheng had already arrived, so there were many more people in Luocheng than usual.However, after walking several hundred feet, Xu Hua found many scholars walking around the street with book baskets on their backs, apparently they had just arrived.

Through questioning, Xu Hua learned that because the entire city of Los Angeles was divided into four parts, four cities in the southeast and northwest, Xu Hua at this time was only on the edge of the east city, and the place for the public examination was in the west city. Hua also didn't intend to go to West City immediately, after all, there is still a month before the public exam, so there is no need to go too early.

Going forward, I found that many bookstores around are crowded with scholars from all over the world. Of course, even if there is a place, Xu Hua is not willing to go in now.In the past few years, Xu Hua has put in a lot of effort in studying. The main purpose of his coming to take the Los Angeles public exam this time is not to get in the list, but to see whether what he has been longing for before is worth his time. pay.

"Everyone has their own Tao, maybe everyone's Tao is not wrong, but not everyone's Tao will be accepted. This world is still controlled by the strong, and only the Tao accepted by them will be allowed to spread, Although these principles are simple, not everyone can understand them..." Xu Hua slightly sighed, wasn't he the same as these scholars a month ago?

"Brother, you are also here to take the public exam." Suddenly, a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth and a pleasing smile appeared on the opposite side of Xu Hua. Nourish it, make him look a little older, like a young boy, that's why the handsome boy on the opposite side calls him brother.

Xu Hua had to admit that the young man on the opposite side was much more handsome than himself, maybe this person would be a beautiful woman in a women's attire! "That's right, brother must be too!"

"Of course, otherwise, wouldn't the sage books that I have studied for so many years be wasted?" The young man suddenly put on a serious face and said seriously.

"Practice what you have learned and put it to use, so there is no waste." Xu Hua responded with a faint smile.

"Practice what you have learned..." The handsome young man lightly touched his lips with his finger, and then his glasses suddenly lit up, looked at Xu Hua and said, "Brother, it seems that you are not those nerds who are obsessed with studying."

"Uh-huh?"

As soon as these words came out, many people around the two came to watch. The handsome young man smiled awkwardly and said, "I didn't mention you."

Only then did those people turn around and continue to busy with their own affairs, the handsome young man suddenly let out an 'ow' and said: "I, Xuanzi Ying, don't you know your name?"

"Xu Hua" Xu Hua responded.

"It turned out to be Brother Xu. I don't know what advice Brother Xu has on reading?" The bright eyes of the handsome young man were very attractive, but Xu Hua didn't pay any more attention after taking a look.

"Do you read? Some people read to accumulate knowledge and common sense; some read to gain fame; I think reading is just a way to survive."

Xuan Ziying didn't understand what it meant, and asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"Our world is a world of warriors where the strong are respected. The most powerful warriors are those who control their own destiny. The only way to control their own destiny is to become a strong warrior at the peak. But it is not easy. Most people just have more than Ordinary people don’t have much strength. If you want to live better, you need to better understand the rules of this world. Only by ensuring that you don’t violate the rules of this world can you live better and not die in vain.”

"Scholars, read all kinds of books, know the past and the present, but they are all the knowledge of the predecessors. The 'Tao' and 'reason' of the predecessors are a way to live better without violating the rules of the strong," Xu Hua Explained lightly.

With a mysterious smile, Xu Hua said: "I only recently realized these truths, but I have already started to practice martial arts. Brother Xuan must have seen it!"

When Xuan Ziying was approaching just now, Xu Hua ran the "Life Devouring Technique" to sense the life energy in his body, and found that the life energy in his body was extremely rich, Xu Hua judged that he should be a strong martial king.

Xuan Ziying was slightly startled, he didn't believe that the young man who was just a martial artist in his eyes could see through him, he was still in doubt, he smiled again and said: "It seems that Brother Xu is not simple, I have never seen Brother Xu like this." Such an interesting person, I wonder if we can be friends?"

"Friend?" Taking another good look at Xuan Ziying who was standing opposite him, after a pause, Xu Hua showed a bright smile and said, "I don't think I will refuse."

"Okay." Xuan Ziying looked very happy, and stretched out his hand, Xu Hua understood, and also stretched out a hand, palms together.

Snapped!
"I'm very happy to meet Brother Xu today, why don't we have a drink together?" Xuan Ziying invited.

"Very good, I just arrived in Los Angeles today, and I don't have a place to stay yet."

Immediately, the two disappeared into the crowd.
