C170 Purgatory Tower

"Wei family?"

Qin Shi tilted his head and snorted in confusion.

Luo Xue Xian's lips trembled. She didn't say anything for a while and just handed the crumpled diary to Qin Shi.

His eyes swept across the little densely packed words written on it. However, the further he looked, the deeper his eyebrows creased. The record of the last mission was very clear. No matter the cost, as long as Luo Xuexian died, it would be possible.

When he looked at the word 'die', Qin Shi's mouth was agape. He did not understand how a little girl could cause such trouble. Ask: "Miss Xue Xian, what kind of deep hatred and hatred do you have with the Wei family? You actually paid a huge sum of money to find someone to deal with you? "

Luo Xue Xian hesitated for a moment before her eyes became cold: "Unsatisfied with Young Master Qin. Our Luo and Wei families are the two largest families in Rainbow Cloud City. Our families use the center of the city as the boundary and control everything in our hands!"

"Hiss …" The two great families? "

Qin Shi drew in a breath of cold air. He was somewhat astonished. The two great families of Rainbow Cloud City?

This was something that Qin Shi had never expected. Although he already knew that the Luo Family's influence was extraordinary, they were actually able to reach up to half of Rainbow Cloud City? That's no joke.

Rainbow Cloud City was not like the ancient city. It was one of the five first-tier cities in the northern region of the empire, and there was a reason for it to be weak?

"It looks like I've underestimated this Luo Family!" As he secretly exclaimed in his heart, Qin Shi raised his hand to wipe the hair that covered his eyes. He asked, "Then why did the Wei family attack you?"

Luo Xue Xian's eyes turned. She looked at the date written in the mercenary's diary and said, "I think it has something to do with the twenty-year Purgatory Contest."

"Purgatory Competition?"

Licking his lips, Qin Shi was slightly surprised.

"Mm. In the center of Rainbow Cloud City, there is a ten million year old mysterious tower. This tower is called the Purgatory Tower." Luo Xue Xian pursed her red lips and said: "Every twenty years, the Luo and Wei families will produce three juniors to compete. The victorious party will gain control of the Purgatory Tower for twenty years."

At this point, Luo Xue paused, her fist fiercely squeezing the bottom of her pants as she angrily scolded: "In my Luo Family, there were only four people who could compete in the tournament, but not long ago, my big brother was chased and killed by a mysterious person, and he was seriously injured."

"In a month's time, we will enter the Purgatory Competition, but only my second brother, third brother, and I will be able to participate. As long as the Luo Family can eliminate me, then this Purgatory Competition will be a win for the Wei family."

"So that's how it is …"

"From the looks of it, my big brother's injury was probably caused by the Wei family. These bunch of bastards who would use any means possible to obtain their strength!" At this point, Luo Xue Xian angrily bared her teeth and cursed.

After he understood what had happened, Qin Shi nodded. He was not surprised.

This sort of competition for fame and wealth was not rare between clans, and he had long since gotten used to it.

Back then, in such a small desolate town, the Qin, Yang, Nie, and three great families fought with their faces red, not sparing a single death, let alone a first-tier city like Rainbow Cloud City.

But now, he was curious, what kind of thing was this' Purgatory Tower '?

Thinking for a while, Qin Shi straightened his wrinkled clothes and asked: "Miss Luo, what is the use of controlling the Purgatory Tower? Why does it make your two families pay so much attention? "

The moment she heard about the Purgatory Tower, Luo Xue Xian subconsciously became vigilant and her hands that were holding her pants started to feel faint light. She then realized that she had lost control of herself and immediately blushed as she blamed herself: "Young Master Qin, I've let you down."

"Don't worry."

Qin Shi shook his head. This kind of vigilance was human instinct, he didn't care about Luo Xue Xian.

"The Purgatory Tower has a total of ten floors. It has a special miraculous effect, which is to be able to purify the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and become abnormally pure. If you train inside the tower, you can even achieve the effect of separating the floors three years apart."

"Oh? "It's that magical?"

Qin Shi opened his mouth in surprise.

What did it mean to be three years away from death? Even in the Spiritual Energy pure Burning Heaven Secret Realm, it could at most be several times more pure than the outside world. It seemed like the control of the Purgatory Tower was truly important.

As long as this Purgatory Tower was present, wouldn't it be able to nurture groups of experts?

No wonder Rainbow Cloud City was considered a first-rate city.

"The Wei family has already been in control of the Purgatory Tower for two consecutive terms. It has been a full forty years, so I've only heard of it …" Luo Xue Xian raised her head and said, "But, in my grandfather's generation, when the Luo Family was in control of the Purgatory Tower, they produced three Profound Spirit Realm experts!"

"Hiss …" Three Mysterious Spirit Realm cultivators? "

This lineup was indeed worthy of attention.

"En, this time, the Luo Family must obtain control of the Purgatory Tower, I will definitely not let the schemes of these treacherous people succeed!" Luo Xue Xian said stubbornly.

Qin Shi nodded and shot him a look of trust. Then, he asked again: "Right, what's the background of this Purgatory Tower?"

Luo Xueyan was stunned and shook her head. "I don't know. No one knows the origins of the Purgatory Tower. I just heard that it was already erected here when the Rainbow Cloud City was established …"

"Hmm? No one knows? "

Qin Shi was shocked once again. He thought to himself, "Could it be another ancient item?"

"Mn, because in the Purgatory Tower, every floor has an extremely strong pressure, and every floor is getting stronger and stronger. Up till now, only the highest number of people have been able to enter the ninth floor, but no one has ever been able to enter the tenth floor."

Luo Xuexin nodded and said, "So according to the legends, as long as you can enter the tenth floor, you will be able to find out the origins of the Purgatory Tower."

"The tenth floor?" Qin Shi was becoming more and more curious about the Purgatory Tower. However, due to the identity of an outsider, he didn't have the heart to ask. He could only lean against the ancient tree in the forest and allow the mottled light spots to pass through the leaves and onto his body.

She quickly grabbed Qin Shi's hand and said embarrassedly: "Young Master Qin, look at me. You are Tingting and I's benefactor, I've really let you down. If you don't mind, you can come to the Luo Family and have a seat."

On this point, Qin Shi definitely would not reject. After all, he was currently homeless, and he was filled with curiosity towards this Purgatory Tower.

But before he left, he still had some things to do. He raised his hand to signal Luo Xue Xian and Luo Tingting to wait a bit before walking towards Ye Kuang who had died miserably.

Qin Shi walked to Ye Kuang's side and tilted his head. His gaze landed on the beast collar on Ye Kuang's wrist. "Hehe, I say brother, since you're already dead, let me keep this for you."

Putting away the beast collar, Qin Shi took Ye Kuang's interspatial ring.

With a simple flip of the book, the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group was worthy of being one of the three biggest mercenary groups in Rainbow Cloud City. They had over two hundred high-grade spirit stones, a dozen or so Tier 3 spirit herbs, and an uncountable number of spiritual herbs and mid-grade spirit stones.

"Hur hur, I made a fortune for the dead this time." Qin Shi shrugged his shoulders. He had done too many things like this. He laughed calmly and turned to look at Luo Xue Xian.

At this time, the two of them were staring at him with their mouths agape. They rubbed their faces in confusion and said, "Uhh, why do you both look at me like that? Could it be that there's something on this young master's face? "

"No …." "I'm fine!"

Luo Xue Xian regained her senses and quickly lowered her head. However, her eyes were faintly discernible as she glanced at Qin Shi.

In her heart, she was unceasingly thinking.

When he was fighting with Ye Kuang earlier, Qin Shi's appearance was sharp and clear. His resolution was so strong that it seemed to be like stars that could flash.

However, at this moment, he could act like a scoundrel.

"What an interesting person." Luo Xue Xian's pretty face hung up with a smile as she thought in her heart.

After everything was done, the three of them did not say anything else and headed towards Rainbow Cloud City.

On the way, the three of them stayed in the forest for four hours. It was already midnight, and the stars in the night sky blinked. Qin Shi and Luo Xuexin considered Luo Tingting's young age and didn't travel overnight, so they found a tree to rest under.

Sitting down, Qin Shi picked up some firewood and set up the fire between the three of them. After that, he punched the sky to disperse the darkness of the night.

The three of them surrounded the fire and passed the peaceful night.

One night, the fireflies moved through the forest, dragging an emerald light through the undergrowth.

"..."

The next day, early in the morning.

In the early morning dew, among the flowers, there was a rare scent of epiphyllum.

A dense ray of morning light scattered down and landed on Luo Xue Xian's beautiful eyes, causing her eyelids to twitch and her eyes to open slightly.

"You're awake?" He woke up early, and it was already a habit for him to absorb the essence of the heaven and earth in the morning. No matter how tired the night was, the second day would definitely open his eyes when the white of the fish's belly appeared in the east.

Luo Xue Xian froze for a moment: "You woke up early."

"I'm used to it." Qin Shi smiled but did not explain.

In the past year, he had not mentioned his hard work to anyone, but it was this determination that allowed him to achieve his current results.

On the path of training, although talent was important, hard work was also an essential element.

Luo Tingting woke up rather late. After all, she was a child. She only opened her hazy eyes at noon.

During the past few hours when she had opened her eyes, Qin Shi had been maintaining his circulation method. Luo Xue Xian stood on the side, staring with her beautiful eyes, curiously at Qin Shi without blinking.

She was moved by his perseverance. "What kind of person is he?"

After Luo Tingting woke up, the three of them continued to head towards Rainbow Cloud City.

The distance from the forest to the Rainbow Cloud City was roughly thirty kilometers. When the blazing sun once again approached the mountains in the west and the setting sun was incomparably bright, the three of them finally arrived at the Rainbow Cloud City.

"This... "Too spectacular …"

Stepping out of the forest, Qin Shi was shocked by the scene before him.

The walls of Rainbow Cloud City appeared in front of him, standing unwaveringly tall at a height of ten meters. The size of the city walls was several tens of streets behind the ancient city, making it impossible to catch up with the city.

Within the city walls, it was filled with beautiful buildings that were decorated with paintings. Each and every one of them was an existence that Qin Shi had never seen before.

"Young Master Qin, let's enter the city." Luo Xue Xian didn't look down on Qin Shi's surprise at all. She only covered her face with a smile and took them to the Rainbow Cloud City.

Entering Rainbow Cloud City, the city guards revealed respect when they saw Luo Xue Xian and Luo Tingting. From then on, it could be seen how high the Luo Family's position in Rainbow Cloud City was.

However, not long after, a handsome man walked over.

The pretty boy saw Luo Xue Xian and immediately revealed an excited expression. "Xue Xian …" But halfway through his sentence, his gaze swept over Qin Shi, and with a 360 degree change, he turned cold, "Who are you?"
