Chapter 278 Sneaking into the City Lord’s Mansion

Then the magical power of thunder was activated, which directly shattered the tiger's body. What he didn't expect was that the tiger, which had been broken up, actually condensed its body again and blocked him.

Zhou Chen looked down at the Duobao Pavilion below. The fighting here had alarmed the guards patrolling nearby.

The guards in the city are at least seventh-rank strong. Although I am not afraid, there is no need to cause trouble now that I haven't got the thing yet.

Looking at the tiger pouncing towards him, Zhou Chen snorted coldly, "Let's end it in one move", then raised his hand and in a flash, densely packed flying swords appeared in the starry sky under the dark night. As Zhou Chen's right hand fell, the flying swords in the sky fell like rain.

Before the tiger reached Zhou Chen, it was defeated by the flying sword, including the warriors below who had not yet arrived and were trying to escape.

The tiger still wanted to use the power of the formation to continue to condense his body, but this time he failed, because the moment the flying sword fell, the Duobao Pavilion below was instantly destroyed and collapsed.

The formation was broken, and the ferocious tiger condensed by the formation naturally disappeared. Zhou Chen controlled the direction of the falling sword rain very well, and no extra flying sword fell outside the Duobao Pavilion.

After the rain of swords, Duobao Pavilion had turned into a pile of dilapidated ruins, and none of the guards who rushed over dared to step forward and could only watch from afar.

Hu Bin looked back in the direction of Duobao Pavilion, gritted his teeth and sighed, "It's over, it's really over this time."

With the spiritual exploration turned on, Zhou Chen took a step towards Hu Bin and the others, and in an instant he was a hundred meters away.

Suddenly Zhou Chen sensed a strong aura chasing towards him. He turned around and saw that it was a thin middle-aged man.

"I don't know why you come to my Fenglai City to cause trouble."

As soon as the voice came, the man appeared in front of Zhou Chen.

This is definitely an expert, an expert whose strength is in no way inferior to Zhou Chen.

The moment Hu Bin saw the man, his heart finally settled down. The city lord was a peak third-grade warrior, and was more than capable of dealing with the guy in front of him.

The two men did not run away but came to the city lord. Hu Bin saluted and said, "City lord, kill him."

The city lord did not look at him, but his aura burst out from his body, and a set of armor appeared on his body with a wave of his hand.

Zhou Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. The armor on his body was not an ordinary thing. Although he didn't know what material it was made of, he could feel that it had extremely high defensive power.

"Hmph, this matter is not over yet," then he turned around, tore through the void and left.

Looking at Zhou Chen leaving, Hu Bin asked, "Why did City Lord Feng let him run away?"

The city lord turned around and was about to leave. Seeing this, Hu Bin became anxious and called out to the city lord.

Looking at Hu Bin who was blocking his way, Lord Feng asked angrily, "How dare you stop me?"
Hu Bin was shocked when he saw this, "No, I dare not. But the city lord let him go like this, which is a huge threat to our Fenglai City."

"Hmph, your threats have nothing to do with me. You can see that he is also a third-grade cultivator. Now the armor I am wearing is not completely completed. I am not sure if I can fight him."

Hu Bin gritted his teeth, took out a wooden box from his storage ring and handed it over. "Sir, the things in here should be enough for you to upgrade your armor."

Lord Feng took the box, opened it and took a look, "Well, it's a little bit off, but it's still barely enough."

"Then I'll have to trouble the City Lord," he said, but his heart was bleeding, because the things in there were the stock he had accumulated for several years.

Afterwards, the two followed the city lord back to the city lord's mansion. That night, the city lord summoned the attached blacksmiths to start forging his armor. As for the guards in the city, they were not deliberately strengthened and remained the same as before.

On the second day, when the people in the city saw the ruins of Duobao Pavilion, they were all shocked. They couldn't help but be shocked. Duobao Pavilion was full of masters, and it was the strongest force in Fenglai City except for the City Lord's Mansion.

It was inevitable that people were suspicious. Could it be that the Duobao Pavilion had offended the city lord and was destroyed? For a while, various speculations were made, but no one thought of Zhou Chen, because in their eyes, Zhou Chen was just an ordinary person, at best an ordinary warrior. Who would have thought that it was such an ordinary person who destroyed the Duobao Pavilion? As for the things in the Duobao Pavilion, they had been looted by the people sent by the city lord's mansion, which was also the price for the city lord to take action.

Zhou Chen also returned to the city again. Now he had changed his appearance using illusion, so ordinary people could not tell it at all, unless the mayor of Fenglai City could see through it.

Zhou Chen arrived at the City Lord's Mansion late at night. At this moment, there was no martial law in the City Lord's Mansion. It looked the same as usual. And through spiritual exploration and observation, there were no hidden masters in the dark.

At this moment, in a secret room, a blacksmith brought a set of armor to the Lord of Wind City and said, "My lord, it's done."

A fanatical smile appeared on the face of Feng Chengzhu, and then he waved his hand. The armor in the caster's hand turned into a puff of green smoke and disappeared. The next moment, the armor appeared on Feng Chengzhu's body.

As his true energy was injected into it, the armor began to emit a faint silver light. The caster explained that even a third-grade warrior would find it difficult to break the defense of this armor, and this armor also had the function of automatic repair.

If there is any damage, just inject true Qi into it and it will repair itself automatically.

Looking at the armor on his body, an excited smile appeared on his face. At this time, Hu Bin stepped forward and congratulated him, "Congratulations, City Lord, you have finally mastered this top-grade earth-grade armor."

At this time, his right hand had been treated and the wound no longer hurt. However, his strength was greatly reduced due to the loss of one hand. Although he had reached the peak of the fourth rank, he would have little chance of winning even if he met a warrior in the middle stage of the fourth rank in the future.

This made him resent Zhou Chen even more. At this time, Zhou Chen had already walked around the mansion and found no clues about the black crystal through his magical observation.

At this time, a fifth-rank guard walked into Zhou Chen's field of vision. Zhou Chen flashed and appeared in front of him. Just as he was about to speak, he found that the person in front of him was actually the city lord.

Seeing this, he quickly bowed and said, "Greetings, Your Excellency."

"Okay, is there anything suspicious?"
"No, sir."

"Okay, that's good." Then, he grabbed his shoulders while he was not paying attention and pulled him into the crack in the void. He let him go only after they entered the different space.

"Sir, where is this and why did you bring me here?"
However, at this moment he noticed that the city lord's expression changed, and in just a few seconds it had become something else.

"Who are you and why are you pretending to be the city lord?" he said as he took out his weapon.

"Stop talking nonsense, I'll ask you a question and you'll have to answer it or I'll kill you."

"Humph, how arrogant."

However, before he could do anything, an ice dragon appeared before him and roared at him with its huge head.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Chen tore through the void again and came to the City Lord's Mansion. After coming out, he went straight to the City Lord's study.

At the same time, the city lord couldn't walk out of the secret room. As soon as he came out, he sensed Zhou Chen's breath.

"Hmph, kid has no patience at all, coming here so quickly."

Hu Bin asked, "What did the adults say and who is here?"

Lord Feng sneered and said, "Of course he is your enemy."

Hu Bin looked around but did not see Zhou Chen, so he looked at City Lord Feng in confusion.

Upon seeing this, Lord Feng snorted coldly, "You are not strong enough, so naturally you can't notice it."
