On the surface, it was under the jurisdiction of the Tianwu Empire, but in reality, it was an independent city just like the Wu River City beside the Southwest Desolate Prairie. Other than having to pay taxes on the city every year, they did not have the authority to ask about anything else, but when the city was under threat, the Tianwu Empire had the obligation to send troops to rescue them, which meant that the tax they had to pay was actually a protection fee.

In fact, there were many such places, but all of them were the bases of some ordinary families and sects. Not only the Tianwu Empire, the other empires and empires were the same. As long as these aristocratic families or sects did not do anything harmful to the national interests and knew about filial piety, the ones in power in the Empire would not go overboard to attack these aristocratic families or sects.

The imperial court was simply too big, even the imperial court controlled by a four star power was much bigger than the planet Xuanyuan Zilong lived on in his previous life. That was why it was difficult to manage everything, which was why the people in power would agree to such actions.

Woody City was no exception. For many people, there were many treasures from the different races in the South Lake Region, but the people were not very smart. Many merchants would purchase the natural treasures from the South Lake at a low price, and then sell them at hundreds, or even thousands of times the price.

Xuanyuan Zilong, Starlord, and Fei'er were dressed in ordinary merchant's attire, and their outstanding appearances had already become extremely ordinary after being covered up. The two of them walked around Wu Di City and returned to the inn.

"To think that there would be a Goddess in the South Swamp. How strange." Fei'er crossed her legs and tapped on the table with her fingers. She was deep in thought.

"What's so strange about that?" Xuanyuan Zilong did not understand. A country with an emperor, how could a Nanze have a goddess be considered strange?

Fei'er rolled her eyes at Xuanyuan Zilong and snorted: "Zi Long, you're still too inexperienced. Goddess Nanze only appeared in legends, and for tens of millions of years, she was just treated as a kind of spiritual faith like Great God Monk. Now, there's actually one, and those southern seedlings actually knew to use the map of the necropolis of the Heavenly Dragon as bait, and set one after another trap. Hmph, if those elm heads could come up with these schemes, they would actually be played around by those merchants."

"Are you saying that there is something wrong with this goddess Nanze?" Control the entire Nanze to serve her? is the goal to obtain the key to the Heavenly Dragon's Tomb? " Xuanyuan Zilong asked with furrowed brows and was too lazy to bother with the way she addressed him.

"Zi Long, it seems that you are not that stupid. You can still be saved. This so-called Goddess Nanze must have come from some force. I just don't know which family it is from. Hmph, who cares which family they are from, I'll let you have a taste of my method of changing the sun from heaven to earth. Fei'Er stroked her fake beard and smiled mischievously, as if she had already seen the thunderous expressions of those people when they saw the map suddenly disappear.

With a "pa" sound, Xuanyuan Zilong's finger knocked on Fei'er's skull, and he said: "Little girl, stop dreaming, hurry up and think of a way to achieve your desired goal. Young Master doesn't want to be dragged into this mud pool."

Fei'er cried out painfully as she covered her head. She jumped up and rushed towards Xuanyuan Zilong, a pair of slender jade hands pinching his neck. Xuanyuan Zilong did not dodge, and at the same time, he signaled for Zhao Ye to ignore him as he began to fight with Fei'er.

"Little girl, are you trying to murder your husband?" Xuanyuan Zilong laughed loudly as he entangled himself with Fei'er.

"Kiss what? If you're like this, at most you're a traitor. See if I strangle you to death or not." Fei'er shouted without any warning.

When Xuanyuan Zilong heard this, he was stunned. Fei'er had already threw him down onto the floor and her two hands desperately gripped onto his neck. Xuanyuan Zilong grabbed Fei'er's wrist and said with a chuckle: "I'm a traitor, then aren't you a slut."

"What the hell is with me ?" As Fei'er was fuming, she released the jade hand that was pinching Xuanyuan Zilong's neck and grabbed downwards.

Xuanyuan Zilong's entire body instantly stiffened and his black pupils immediately turned deep. At the same time, he felt that he had gone too far. As for the hot stick in Fei'Er's hand, she was also stunned and forgot to release her hand.

"Little girl, if you don't let me go, I'm going to become a beast." Xuanyuan Zilong's somewhat dissatisfied and hoarse voice rang out. Although he had always had a very good self-control, even his wife, Xing Ziyan, had yet to formally carry out the ceremony.

Although Zi Yan, Zhao Jun, and the rest were by his side every day, they all knew that Xuanyuan Zilong did not want to do anything in that area for the time being, so they would definitely not take the initiative to do something to tease Xuanyuan Zilong. Thus, Xuanyuan Zilong had never experienced this kind of situation before, so he was a good boy in his heart.

It was only then that Fei'er seemed to have awoken from a dream and he jumped up with a cry. He retreated to the wall, pointed at Xuanyuan Zilong and said, "You ? "You shameless hooligan ?"

Xuanyuan Zilong stood up, looked at the second brother who still refused to stop, and slanted his eyes saying, "Are you sure you're not talking about yourself?"

Fei'er opened her mouth, as if it was indeed her own fault, but the one who suffered the most was also herself. She could not help but say depressingly: "Xuanyuan Zilong, in the future, you will be an inch away from me."

Xuanyuan Zilong did not pay any attention to her rumors. With the assistance of Lord Zhao, he stood up and pushed open the window. Outside, it was a noisy street. At that moment, the sound of someone exclaiming suddenly came from the street, followed by chaos.

"What happened?" Fei'er was like a cat smelling the smell of blood. She immediately scuttled over and looked outside next to Xuanyuan Zilong.

"I don't know, but I don't think you're even a foot away from me right now." Xuanyuan Zilong said with a smile.

Fei'er glared at Xuanyuan Zilong. The two of them were currently not even a foot apart, not even an inch apart. However, she couldn't be bothered to tell him that they were now companions who fought side by side. If they kept a distance of one chi from each other, then that would be courting death, and that would just be words of anger on her part. Women naturally had their own advantages. Sometimes, what they said could be treated as farts.

Right at that moment, the surrounding crowd suddenly scattered as if they had seen a ghost. At the same time, a grey fog spread out in all directions, and those who couldn't escape the smoke immediately fell to the ground, their flesh and skin instantly rotting.

"The poisonous smoke from the seedlings of the south!" All the races in the Southern Swamp were good at using poison, and were extremely powerful, but in order to protect the safety of the city, no one was allowed to fight inside the city, and all the races in the South Swamp were not allowed to use poison, and those who violated the rules would be killed without exception. Because of this, this Wu Di was also one of the few cities with the best security in the entire Sky Martial Empire.

Xuanyuan Zilong knitted his brows as he saw at least fifty to sixty people fall and the poison smoke was still spreading. He took a deep breath, jumped down, and ran towards the center of the chaos.

"Zi Long, wait for me." Fei'er also jumped down and followed him like a ghost.

"..."

Kura stared coldly at the messy street and the dozens of corpses lying on the street. His face was covered with black tiger tattoos and he looked extremely ferocious. In his hand was a fat merchant with large ears.

"Kular, what are you doing? Are you going to implicate our entire Miao Family? " An old man dressed in clothes similar to Kular's shouted.

"Third Uncle, this bastard raped and killed Sister. I want to avenge Sister." With a cold look in his eyes, he glared at the merchant with murderous intent. He clenched his teeth and threw a punch at the merchant's chest. Suddenly, the sound of bone cracking could be clearly heard.

"Your sister has made the decisions in the clan, if we can't do it in the clan, there is still the Goddess, right? "You are undoubtedly trying to cut off the entire Miao Family's retreat path." The old man said in pain.

Kura was startled. In his mind, he saw Goddess Monk's elegant figure, but he still shook his head and said, "This bastard is about to leave. If I don't act now, I will never have the chance."

"Then why didn't you do it after he left Woody? "Although you have your revenge now, all of the people that died here are innocent right?" Xuanyuan Zilong, who had only just rushed over and roughly understood the situation, suddenly interrupted.

Kura stared coldly at Xuanyuan Zilong and said, "I wasn't the one who released the poisonous smoke. I only killed a few of his guards. Do you really think that those cowards need me to release the poisonous smoke?"

Xuanyuan Zi Long and Fei'er looked at each other and felt that things might be a little complicated. Although this Nan Ze called Kur was ruthless and straightforward, he clearly had a straightforward character. That poison cloud might not really have been released by him, but who else could it be? From the corner of his eyes, Xuanyuan Zilong shot a glance at the old man who had spoken to Kura.

At this time, the Starlord who was standing behind Xuanyuan Zilong seemed to want to say something to his master. As a supreme existence of a Titled Heavenly Emperor, she naturally knew what had happened here. He shook his head as he recalled the words that Xuanyuan Zilong had told her a long time ago, "Lord Zhao, in the future, you will be by my side. There are some things that you can know, but if I don't ask, there is no need to tell me. People have to grow up on their own. They can't just rely on others to tell them everything. I know that you have the ability and I can always rely on you, but I still hope that I can achieve something.

Of course, some things that should be done must be done. This is the time to test you. As he thought about it, his body and mind was once again attracted by his master. This was actually the reason why many matters were unknown to Xuanyuan Zilong, and why many things happened when he encountered a fight.

Fei'er naturally did not know what the Starlord was thinking about. She stood next to Xuanyuan Zilong and softly said, "Zi Long, since we already know what happened, I think we should leave as well. This way, we'll easily attract Nan Miao's attention."

"I think this is an opportunity." Xuanyuan Zilong blinked his eyes at Fei'er and the corner of his mouth curled into a smile.

At that moment, the garrison army of Wu Di City had already arrived.

Kular looked up at the sky and frowned, his expression grave.

"Capture all of them." When the garrison army arrived, one of the high-ranking officers pointed at Kular and his third uncle, as well as Xuanyuan Zilong, Zhao Jun and Fei'er, and a few other people who were standing closer to watch the commotion.

A cold light flashed, and the body of the soldier in the lead was split into two. The thick hilt of the blade retracted and smashed towards the merchant's head, who did not have enough time to cry out before his head exploded like a watermelon.

"You dare to resist in such a violent manner? Kill him without question." The high-ranking officer signaled with his hand, and the soldiers behind them quickly surrounded them. Rows of spears gleamed coldly, and the Spirit Crossbows on the roofs on both sides also aimed at them.

Like a ferocious tiger, Kular fearlessly charged into the formation of spears. When the spears stabbed him, it was as if they stabbed into steel plates. Then, they were instantly broken by a powerful force coming from his body. This time, it was as if a wolf had intruded into a flock of sheep. The cold light flashed like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, a large portion of the soldiers fell to the ground while screaming.

"Dragon Confining Formation." The high-ranking officer was not afraid even when he saw Kular be so valiant. He had fought over a hundred battles, and his heart had long since become as cold as steel. What kind of battle formation had he not seen before?

The soldiers surrounding Kular immediately dispersed, only to see a dozen or so chains, as thick as an arm, intersecting each other in a net, falling down from the sky. With each rotation, Kular was tied up into a ball by the chains.

"Spirit Crossbow." The high-ranking officer shouted once again.

whoosh whoosh whoosh ? * The Spirit Crossbows shot by the Spirit Crossbows on the rooftop turned into dozens of black streaks of light that shot towards Kur Er. The Spirit Crossbows' arrows supported the spirit energy and could even pierce through steel plates.

He knew that he would not be able to escape today, but he did not understand why Stephen did not come to his rescue.

The Purple Feather Sword in his hand struck from under his armpit, causing the soldier to fly backwards. Seeing that Kula Er was about to be turned into a hedgehog by the Spirit Crossbow, Xuanyuan Zi Long waved his purple wings and sent a stream of Sword Qi flying out. The several dozen Spirit Crossbows collided with the Sword Qi and finally shattered into pieces.

But at this moment, a thunderous tiger's roar came from the sky. A giant golden-striped tiger with wings came charging down.

Kura let out a long howl, and the muscles in his body began to move. The chain that was trapping him suddenly shook, and then broke into pieces. With a leap, he had already mounted on top of the Soaring Sky Tiger. However, he did not run, but instead circled in the air, diving down towards Xuanyuan Zilong, Zhao Jun, and Fei'er.

"Hurry up." Kular shouted.

Xuanyuan Zilong and Fei'er unhesitatingly jumped up. A sword energy struck the Spirit Crossbows on the roof and lifted them all off the roof. Meanwhile, the Soaring Tiger had already carried them into the clouds.

On the west side of the Nanze, near a lakeside overgrown with aquatic plants, Xuanyuan Zilong and Fei'er listened to Kular's account of what had happened.

Both his parents had died when he was young, and he had grown up with his sister. In order to raise him, his sister had suffered countless hardships. She had originally had the chance to become a wizard of the clan, but she had given up on taking care of him.

When Kular was ten years old, he encountered an expert, who taught him an invulnerable technique and a set of powerful sabresmanship. Ten years later, he had already reached the initial stage, and he entered the Nightmare Forest to train. He was lucky enough to obtain a young Flying Tiger as a spirit pet.

However, ten days ago, his sister and a few of her companions entered Wu Di City to exchange some of the herbs they found for daily necessities, but they were kidnapped and raped by that fat merchant. His sister was extremely humiliated and angry. However, that bastard imprisoned his elder sister. Not only did he play around with her, he even allowed his subordinates to play. His elder sister could not bear the humiliation and was forced to commit suicide.

"I had expected that the garrison in Woody City would not let me go, so I sent Stephen to meet me, but I didn't expect that someone would take advantage of the chaos and release my Miao poison smoke, causing me to be unable to refute him. Stephen was also attacked when he came to receive me, and his legs were injured. Humph, if I'm not wrong, someone in the clan is trying to deal with me." He looked like a twig, but he didn't expect a lot of people to be so much smarter.

"I feel like there's something wrong with your third uncle." Xuanyuan Zilong said after pondering for a while.

Kura rubbed the head of the Flying Tiger and remained silent. It was obvious that he had the same suspicions in his heart.

"I need to go back. Kura will never forget the kindness of saving your lives. Take this and follow the path down. No one will make things difficult for you." Kula said as he tossed a wooden tablet with the head of a tiger to Xuanyuan Zi Long. Then, he mounted the flying tiger and instantly disappeared into the distance.

Fei'er sized Xuanyuan Zi Long up from head to toe, her fist hitting his chest as she smiled coquettishly, "It really is you. If not, it would not be easy to enter the center of the Southern Swamp."

"That's true. There are defensive webs in the air, on the ground, and under the water of the southern seedlings. They are truly well-fortified. If it wasn't for Kular bringing them in and diving into the water according to our previous methods, they might have alarmed us." Xuanyuan Zilong said.

She looked around at her surroundings, pointed at the map, and said, "We should be here right now. This place is not just ten miles away from the South Lake Temple, we should be able to sense the target if we go five more kilometers east."
