Eternal gate

Three days passed quietly.

On the fourth day, before daybreak, people were seen gathering towards the center of the city. There was a venue there with a battle platform specially used for weapon refining competitions.

It's more accurate to say it's a stage.

There are seats all around the viewing platform for watching the show.

"Gotta get a good spot."

"I've staked my entire fortune, and I'm just waiting for the cashier."

"Don't lose everything."

Too many people have already entered the venue, all of whom have made bets. Before the weapon-refining battle begins, the atmosphere is already heated. People are everywhere, and the whole area is dark. Why do you want to get together and talk nonsense when you have nothing to do? Not to mention the two families creating such a big scene.

Even the city lord was alarmed.

This battle stage, including this venue, is all run by the city lord's palace. Neither of the two families have any opinions. If you want to come in and watch the show, you have to pay an admission fee.

so:

Yang Xiong was a madman on the battlefield, but he was also a businessman when he was off the battlefield. In his own territory, he was the king, setting up a show and collecting some money.

"It's great to be the city lord."

The little black fat man arrived early, along with the little money fan and the purple-haired child. Even Chi Yan found a place to sit. Zhuge Xuandao and the fat old man were not willing to be left alone. They joined in wherever there was excitement. They all knew that Zhao Yun was very quarrelsome. Damn, I just don’t know how accomplished I am in refining weapons. A disciple of the royal family should be pretty good.

"The Wang family is here."

I don’t know who said it, but few people paid attention to it.

Birds of a feather flock together.

The acquaintances all gathered together to chat, whoever liked it came. Since they are not princes and nobles, why do they need a special report? The Wang family is far from qualified!

While they were talking, Wang Liao, the head of the Wang family, had already entered the venue.

Next to him was Wang Yang, both of whom looked very unhappy. The auction ended that day, and a deceiving look in his eyes could deceive the Wang family. It had been several days, and they were still doing it every three days. Some people went to his house to drink tea, and they were all uncles. For this, the Wang family spent a lot of money. In order to restore friendship with the Liu family, they spent countless favors and money.

When we arrived, we didn’t even know who the deceiver was.

The Wang family arrived, and all the major families in the city also arrived one after another.

Most of them are family members.

On your side! They all follow their young masters and have already arranged their seats. Although it is open-air, it is equivalent to a private room. This is a symbol of status. As for those who have no background, they can just sit in the back, and there is no room in the front row.

In addition to them, there are also people from wealthy families.

As early as after the auction, the big families sent people over, intervened in various industries, and jointly suppressed the Zhao family. Indeed, because their Zhao family's industries were worse than the other, vicious competition, and the competition was for financial resources, how could a small family beat the big family.

"Come on, come on, I've placed my bet."

The people in the casino are very active and have moved all the gaming tables. The meaning is obvious. As long as the game has not started, you can still place bets. With this business, the major casinos have made enough progress. Even the city owner has set up a place to make money. How can they not improve the market fee? An extra dollar means an extra commission. Everyone is not a fool. There are people selling refreshments and drinks. Business in many industries today is booming. Look. What a drama! They are all eating melons.

Not long after, the Liu family appeared.

Compared with those of the Wang family, the arrival of this family attracted a lot of attention. When they went to see them, Liu Cangkong had already entered the venue, walking like a dragon and a tiger, with a superior majesty. Liu Ruyue was also there, and the manager of the Liu family came. A dozen people.

Showy enough.

As for what the world sees, there are basically two groups. One is Liu Ruyue, the proud daughter of heaven! The second is to look at Dry Mountain. In today’s competition, he is the protagonist. He is wearing a purple Taoist robe. His gray hair is windless. He has a kind of aura, and his whole body is filled with the breath of fire. Those who are closer can feel the heat wave. .

The weapon refiner attracts attention wherever he goes.

His demeanor was even more arrogant than Liu Cangkong's. If the rich clan hadn't spoken out, and if the commission hadn't been generous enough, then the ghost would have been willing to wander around this small ancient city.

"Restore the true Xuanyang peak."

"The person recruited by the big family is not an ordinary person. He must have a lot of moral character."

"Why haven't we seen the Zhao family's weapon refiner yet?"

The atmosphere at the venue was very lively, and there was a lot of discussion. After seeing Dry Mountain, those who bet on the Liu family’s victory felt more confident. This was not an ordinary weapon refiner. As expected, the Liu family would win this competition. .

And they just wait to receive the money.

Ku Shan has sat down and closed his eyes to rest his mind. He is the weapon refiner of a large family. He is one of the few capable people except the Tianzong and the royal family. At least he is quite accomplished in weapon refining. If it were not for his disagreement with an elder of the Tianzong, he would Eighty percent of them have entered Tianzong.

Therefore, he is very confident.

Again, as long as he is not a weapon refiner from the royal family or Tianzong, it is useless for anyone to come. In his opinion, a small clan cannot afford to hire such a weapon refiner.

"The city lord has arrived."

I don't know who just howled, and everyone present stood up collectively, forgetting the boundaries of the ancient city, Yang Xiong is the king! The rich people don't dare to make mistakes when they come.

"The city lords are all here, it's really a big honor."

Amidst sighs and tuts, Yang Xiong, dressed in plain clothes, entered the room, accompanied by Old Man Wang. Also coming with him was Lao Xuankong from the auction pavilion. Just to join in the fun, they all placed their bets, and they were all bets. It’s all Zhao’s win.

"Don't be shy and sit down."

Yang Xiong smiled and waved, then sat down and waited for the big show.

Afterwards, many people came.

In addition to people from this city, there are also people from other cities, and their balls hurt a lot.

Soon, I saw Zhao Yun wandering into the arena.

He was the only one, and the Zhao family was not seen. That's right. The Zhao family had sealed the clan before the auction. Everyone in Forget Ancient City knew about it. As for why they sealed the clan, they could guess at least two or three points.

Compared with the Liu family's large array, Zhao Yun is slightly weak.

Seeing him, I felt a lot of emotions. He was a loser in the past, a genius in the past. In these days, I am afraid no one is more famous than him, more popular than he was back then. Ever since he was sent out of the family, he has made the Liu family suffer again and again. , like the Blood Eagle clan, all returned in vain. No one dares to underestimate him anymore. The so-called waste has nothing to do with him. If we really want to judge, he can be on par with Liu Ruyue. It's a pity. , it is impossible for both of them in this life.

"Is Hongyuan here?"

Zhuge Xuandao, the fat old man, Yang Xiong and Lao Xuankong all have bright eyes. The apprentice is about to go on stage to compete. I wonder if he will come to dominate the competition. If the best in the world comes, he will be the best. Really give face.

Unfortunately, Hong Yuan was not found.

Perhaps Hongyuan has already arrived, but their vision is limited and they cannot find it.

"When can I see that old man again?"

Yang Xiong took a deep breath, and a sermon gave him a great opportunity. This is a kindness that he will never forget, and Hongyuan, the best in the world, will remember it forever.

"Why is there an admission fee?"

Zhao Yun muttered all the way, if he didn't have a few scraps of silver in his hand, the weapon refiner he came to participate in the competition would not even be able to get in. Yang Xiong is also a businessman! The venue he built was paid for and no one dared to object.

"Which one is the Zhao family's weapon refiner?"

The spectators whispered and looked again and again. Their own family knew about it, but few outsiders knew about it. So far, they have never seen the mysterious weapon refiner of the Zhao family.

Dry Mountain didn't bother to look for it, so he stepped onto the stage.

Zhao Yun followed him up to the stage before he took his seat. Too many people raised their eyebrows.

"He...is the Zhao family's weapon refiner?"

"Who knows, if you go up like this, it will probably be him."

"this....."

There was a lot of surprise in the audience. After guessing a lot, they didn't expect it to be Zhao Yun.

This is a surprise.

Liu Cangkong frowned slightly and glanced at Zhuge Xuandao. From the beginning to the end, he thought that Zhuge Xuandao was the weapon refiner of the Zhao family. The real owner was Zhao Yun. He, the father-in-law, was also caught off guard. Liu Cangkong was also beside him. Ruyue has pretty eyebrows and a slight frown. She was once a lover and almost became a couple. She should be the one who understands Zhao Yun best. She doesn't know how to refine weapons!

"What a fucking surprise."

"I thought it was an old man, God knows it was Zhao Yun, tsk tsk tsk."

"So, it was the Liu Family Arms Shop that he defeated single-handedly?"

"If the exiled Liu Canghai learns about it, he will probably cough up a mouthful of old blood."

"It's over, I'm escorting the Zhao family."

There was a lot of discussion, with tongues wagging, sighs, doubts, surprises... various tones, various expressions, various interpretations on the faces, mainly because they were unexpected! How could such a genius and a weapon refiner be kicked out of the Zhao family?

This is so against the rules!

Could it be that the Zhao family specially sent Zhao Yun to muddy the waters?

Also, those who bet on the Zhao family.

Except for Xiao Cai Fan, they were all in tears. It was strange that a True Spirit Artifact Refiner could win against a Xuanyang Realm Artifact Refiner. In the eyes of the spectators, there were already a lot of people there before the war started. Having lost everything, I was not optimistic about the Zhao family. Now, I am even less optimistic about the situation, and I want to change my bets.

However, it's too late, the gambling has stopped.

"I just like seeing this expression."

The little black fat man put his hands in his hands and looked cheerful.

Just say it! Zhao Yun was nothing but a surprise, and once he appeared, he became a blockbuster. Except for them, no one knew that Zhao Yun was a weapon refiner. This surprise was a feast for the eyes.

"Hidden deep enough."

Lao Xuankong stroked his beard. If Lao Xuandao hadn't told him, he would have been kept in the dark.

Looking at it now, Zhao Yun has another layer of mystery on him.

"This face looks familiar!"

Huang Yan, who had presided over the auction, looked at Zhao Yun a little strangely. He always felt that he was looking at the back of someone who was cheating. It was a bit imaginary. Maybe they were the same person. If so, it would be very interesting. .

The one with the most exciting look is undoubtedly Dry Mountain.

The way he looked at Zhao Yun was not ordinary strange.

That guy, could he be a weapon refiner?

I thought he was an old guy?

Compared with Zhao Yun, Xuanyang is obviously no match for the real spirit!

"I've met senior."

Zhao Yun still knows etiquette very well, and he has to go through the formalities.

"I really admire the Zhao family."

Ku Shan snorted coldly, without even looking, with eyes full of contempt, stroking his beard, truly arrogant. If he had known it was Zhao Yun, he would never have made this war agreement. Compared with a true spirit realm, it really loses his majesty. If word spreads, he will still To him, a man with a reputation for bullying the young is just a farce. A strong man beating up a little kid is nothing but a farce!

Zhao Yun just smiled and said nothing.

What's wrong with the True Spirit Realm? The True Spirit Realm is also a weapon refiner! Don't look down on others. I have killed one martial artist of your level! What a cow.

"It's better to compare."

Some people couldn't hold it anymore and howled loudly.

Are you still waiting to receive money?

Ku Shan ignored him and only looked at Zhao Yun, "You are not my opponent. Please admit defeat and step down."

"Come here, come on, Bibi!"

Zhao Yun chuckled again, after setting up such a big battle, if I don't give you some blood, I'd be sorry for you to come to Forget the Ancient City, and you won't be able to cry anymore.

"You don't know what you can do."

"It's time to pay the tuition." Zhao Yun smiled.

"In this case, you can add a bonus."

Let’s just say it with a smile! Here comes the bloodletting episode.

Let's fight!

There is a gambling game under the stage, but there is no chance of winning on stage.

Kushan, which boasted of being high up in the sky, climbed up against the wind and spoke with dignity. Zhao Yun went through the motions and saluted him. He also went through the motions to do things for the Liu family, which was nothing more than getting some benefits, such as taking over the Zhao family's military store.

As for whether Zhao Yun should or should not, he didn't care.

"You are the senior, you have the final say." Zhao Yun said with a smile, that's all, the competition adds bonus! It has long been an unwritten rule. Not even mentioning it, does he still want to add it? It's a rare opportunity to seize this opportunity, so I need to get some loot.

For example, the flames of dry mountains.

Looking at Dry Mountain, his eyebrows were slightly raised, and he responded. Did Zhao Yun respond?

"You know you're going to lose, but you still want to add a bonus?"

There was also a sound of surprise from below. I really don’t know where Zhao Yun got his confidence.

"senior?"

Seeing Dry Mountain silent, Zhao Yun called out tentatively.

"If I win, the Zhao family's military store will return to the Liu family."

"If you win, the Liu family's military store will return to the Zhao family."

Karushan said calmly.

"Why don't you bet bigger?" Zhao Yun said with a smile.

"oh?"

"Plus three hundred thousand taels, and their respective flames."

hiss!

As soon as Zhao Yun said his words, the onlookers gasped. They thought Ku Shan was so courageous, but they never thought that Zhao Yun was even more ruthless! A weapons shop, a life-changing fire, and three hundred thousand taels of silver. What a gamble!

Here, Zhao Yun has shown his flames.

The jet-black flames are still very domineering, hanging in the palm of the hand, and the burning air is distorted. If a discerning person takes a look, it is an earth fire, and it is very domineering.

To be honest, Ku Shan was shocked.

However, Zhao Yun's earth fire is still very rare for him, and his flames are comparable to him. If he finds a way to melt them, he will not be able to produce heavenly fire.

As for the two military stores.

As for three hundred thousand taels of silver.

He didn't care. If he lost, he would ask the Liu family for it. It had nothing to do with him.

Moreover.

He was at the peak of Xuanyang, and he had already become famous. In terms of cultivation, attainments, and mental strength, any one of them could not crush Zhao Yun. Would he lose? There was no way he could lose, as long as it was not the weapon refiner from Tianzong and the royal family, it would be useless for anyone to come.

"So confident?"

Liu Cangkong frowned, feeling that Zhao Yun was unusual today.

However, he was confident.

In other words, he has absolute confidence in the dry mountains invited by the rich clan.

Xuanyang has no reason to lose against Zhenling.

"I agreed." Ku Shan smiled playfully. Before coming, Liu Cangkong said that it was up to him to decide what to bet and how much to bet. If it didn't cost him, he wouldn't feel bad.

"In this case, I hope the city lord will notarize it." Zhao Yun looked at Yang Xiong.

"Easy to say."

Yang Xiong smiled and said, this is also the meaning of his existence.

Be willing to admit defeat.

Anyone who dares to default on their debts will no longer need to hang out in Forgotten City, because Da Xia Hongyuan appears to be impartial, but in fact he supports Zhao Yun in his heart. He has a master who is the best in the world, and even the headmaster of Tianzong is not easy to use. Zhao Yun If he wins, he can get some extra money as a gift. That guy is very sensible.
