"Hehe, I can't wait anymore, I want to see the appearance of Elder Xuan Ning dying in despair."

"He has always been arrogant and domineering. This time, we must severely suppress their prestige and let him know that Yuanmen is nothing in front of us."

"Yes, sir."

Horseshoes fly.

Two steeds galloped through the desert.

Xuan Ning's face was extremely serious.

He gripped the reins tightly and urged the horses to a gallop.

"elder brother……"

The girl beside him couldn't help asking.

"what happened?"

"What's wrong with you? I feel you are worried."

Xuan Ning smiled wryly.

"is it?"

He shook his head and sighed: "I'm afraid that our plan may not be successful..."

Snow City is hundreds of miles away from Chang'an City.

Even if he tried his best to hurry, it would probably take him three days to get there.

But in these three days, who can guarantee that they will be safe and sound?
In particular, these three days happened to be a critical period for the eruption of the frenzy of monsters.

Those monsters will never allow them to escape so easily.

The two brothers and sisters have been targeted!

"We must leave here quickly and go to Chang'an City!"

Xuan Ning said in a deep voice: "This time, I will make the Yaozu pay the price!"

The carriage gallops.

Soon, a huge city appeared in their field of vision.

This is their goal - Chang'an City!

Chang'an City is the core of the entire north.

It was the capital of a huge empire.

This empire covers an area of ​​more than a thousand miles.

The city wall stretches for thousands of miles.

In this empire, there are even four Martial Emperor-level powerhouses!
In the center of the empire, there is a silver-white palace.

There, is the center of the entire empire.

On the top of the palace, a lifelike phoenix is ​​carved.

The phoenix spread its wings and wanted to fly, as if it could rush into the sky at any time.

This phoenix is ​​made of divine wood.

It was made by a powerful monster clan who spent his whole life in the time when monsters were raging.

The Phoenix Temple was built on top of this palace.

This is the totem pole of empire.

Symbolizes supreme power.

Anyone who dares to provoke this statue will be doomed.

"Let's go."

Xuan Ning clapped his hands.

"We're going into town."

he said with a smile.

"Ah."

Xuan Lixue nodded, opened the curtain and jumped out.

She jumped off the horse and led the horse towards the city gate.

"Girl, please stay."

Guards stopped them.

"Excuse me, do you have a token?"

"Token?"

Xuan Lixue was stunned.

She really hasn't.

"Look at who I am, do you think the people I lead still need tokens?" Xuan Ning looked at the guard with a sneer.

"Elder Xuan Ning! So it's you."

The guard was startled, and quickly took off the badge on his waist: "Wait a minute, I'll report it right away!"

He took the token and left in a hurry.

Not long after, he reappeared.

This time, it changed to a respectful expression.

"Elder Supreme, His Majesty has ordered that any Supreme Elder Xuan Ning who comes in person can directly enter Chang'an City without checking the token!"

"Haha, it seems that I, the Supreme Elder, am quite dignified."

Xuan Ning smiled in satisfaction.

"In that case, let's go to the city." Xuan Lixue heaved a sigh of relief.

At this time, they had also reached the gate of Chang'an City.

Xuan Ning led Xuan Lixue to the city gate on a steed.

Suddenly, the guard at the city gate let out an exclamation.

"Elder Supreme, look!"

Xuan Ning looked up.

Outside the gate of Chang'an City, hundreds of people stood densely.

Among the crowd, there was a man in a blue suit standing proudly on a tall horse.

He was tall and straight, with a handsome appearance, and there was a sharp look between his brows.

Behind him, followed by a group of cavalry.

These cavalry were dressed in heavy armor and looked solemn.

They are tall and tall, with firm eyes.

Obviously, they are all first-class elites!

Moreover, on them, there was a trace of bloody evil spirit faintly.

Xuan Ning's pupils suddenly contracted.

"This is... the Sirius Army?"

"That's right!"

The leading man said loudly: "Elder Xuan Ning, you are finally back."

He clasped his fists and saluted with a very respectful attitude.

"How come you are here?"

Xuan Ning frowned.

"Reporting to the Supreme Elder, the commander of the Heavenly Wolf Army, I heard that you are coming, and the special dispatch will wait here at the end."

"Oh?"

Xuan Ning narrowed his eyes.

"The Alchemy Conference in Chang'an City is about to start, and the Sirius Army was invited by Yuanmen to be responsible for security."

Xuan Ning nodded.

"That's good. During this time, we may have some things to delay."

"I don't know if the Supreme Elder is willing to walk with the last general?"

"can."

He nodded in agreement.

His identity is actually not suitable for publicity.

Moreover, it would be a good thing if Xiao Xiao could be intimidated by the might of the Sirius Army.

Xuan Ning took Xuan Lixue and followed behind the leader of the Sirius Army.

"Elder Supreme, the main purpose of coming here this time is to participate in the Alchemy Competition held by the Alchemist Association."

"Alchemy Competition?"

"It is said that in the past month, many new alchemist masters have emerged in the alchemist union. This alchemy competition is to select these talents."

"Moreover, this year's alchemy competition has generous rewards. I heard that there are still many alchemy recipes and medicinal materials that can be found. It is a rare opportunity."

Xuan Ning nodded: "I remember, the alchemy competition will take a total of seven days of trials?"

"Yes."

The leader of the Sirius Army continued to explain: "In the past seven days, the Alchemist Association will gather alchemists in the city to conduct an assessment."

"If you can successfully pass the assessment, then you can get corresponding honors and resource rewards, and you can also enter the depths of Yuanmen to practice."

Xuan Ning nodded. As the Supreme Elder of Yuanmen, although he has no specific position, he has a high status in the sect, so he knows more than others.

"but……"

The leader of the Sirius army hesitated and said, "According to the rules, our Sirius army should be fully responsible for holding this competition. However, the city gate is heavily guarded recently. I'm afraid we can't do this..."

"do not worry."

Xuan Ning waved his hand: "I've already made arrangements."

While speaking, there was a rumbling sound in the distance.

Xuan Ning's expression changed, and he whispered, "Let's go!"

After speaking, he waved his hand.

The group of them quickly got into the carriage.

Afterwards, a luxurious and luxurious carriage drove into Chang'an City.

Around the carriage, there were maids and servants, carrying boxes and cages, following them all the way, mighty and mighty, which attracted many people's attention.

In the carriage, Xuan Ning rested with his eyes closed.

Xuan Lixue sat aside, quietly flipping through the booklet in her hand.

"The Alchemy Conference in Chang'an City is about to start, and the Sirius Army was invited by Yuanmen to be responsible for security."

Xuan Ning nodded.

"That's good. During this time, we may have some things to delay."

"I don't know if the Supreme Elder is willing to walk with the last general?"

"can."

Suddenly, her expression changed slightly, and she raised her head to look out the window.

At the corner of the street, a few masked assassins in black were rushing towards the carriage, as if something had happened.

Xuan Lixue frowned, put down the booklet, lifted the curtain and looked outside.

She was about to speak.

Suddenly, the carriage shook violently, and then, the whole carriage bumped violently and stopped.

"what--"

Xuan Lixue screamed and hit the wall of the carriage heavily.

"what happened?"

Xuan Ning came out from the carriage.

Xuan Lixue hurriedly grabbed his sleeve robe: "Brother..."

"There are assassins!"

Xuan Ning ordered in a deep voice: "Turn the car around and leave immediately!"

"Yes!"

The groom responded and pulled the reins to drive the carriage away.

"late."

A cold voice came.

Immediately, dozens of figures flew towards the carriage and surrounded it.

"kill!"

They all shouted violently and came straight to the carriage!

The horse neighed and struggled.

"Damn it!" How dare you launch an assassination in Chang'an City!

Xuan Ning's eyes turned cold, he drew his sword and rushed out of the carriage.

With a sound of "shua", the long sword cut through the air.

In an instant, blood spattered.

An assassin in black, whose head fell directly to the ground!
However, more black-clothed assassins rushed towards the carriage frantically.

One of the assassins even jumped on the horse's back, clamped his legs around the horse's belly, and slashed down fiercely with a short knife in his hand!

The cold light flickered, and the blade was sharp!
"Pfft!"

The knife fell, the horse screamed, its front hooves flew into the air, the carriage lost control, and rolled towards the slope.

"boom!"

The carriage hit the ground heavily and was instantly torn apart.

"what--!"

Screams came and went.

Xuan Ning's face was livid, he jumped up, his arms swept across, and the long sword turned into an afterimage.

Sword marks flickered in midair.

Those black-clothed assassins couldn't resist at all, and fell to the ground one after another.

At this time, Xuan Lixue had already rushed out of the carriage.

Holding a soft sword in her hand, like a swimming dragon, she instantly reaped the lives of several assassins.

In a short while, those assassins were all beheaded.

"Elder Supreme, are you alright?"

The commander of the Sirius army looked at Xuan Ning and asked.

"I am fine."

Xuan Ning shook his head, looked past the crowd, and landed on a towering and majestic palace complex in the distance.

There is the location of the Alchemy Competition, Yuanmen Headquarters.

"Let's go there, it's about to start later."

The leader of the Sirius Army said respectfully.

……

The alchemy square was already full of people.

The dense crowd filled the square, almost occupying the entire square.

As soon as Xuan Ning approached the edge of the square, he felt a wave of heat rushing towards his face.

In the square, flames were burning everywhere.

Here, it seems to be in a sea of ​​fire, burning every inch of soil.

"Is this the alchemy competition?"

Xuan Lixue muttered to herself.

"Yes."

Xuan Ning nodded, and said: "The alchemy competition is a grand ceremony held by the alchemists of the Danding Pavilion. During this competition, all alchemists participating in the competition must arrange formations around the square to maintain the stability of the square."

Xuan Lixue nodded: "I see."

Xuan Ning looked around and said: "In this competition, apart from alchemy, the most important task is to test the true strength of each alchemist. Therefore, I plan to personally supervise..."

In the middle of his speech, he suddenly noticed that at the other end of the square, many soldiers in armor had gathered.

They lined up, firmly guarding around the square.

Xuan Ning narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice, "Who are these people?"

The leader of the Sirius Army also noticed something strange.

He lowered his voice and said: "Reporting to the Supreme Elder, these are the Imperial Forest Army sent by His Majesty the Emperor to maintain the order of this competition and prevent people from making trouble."

"Well, I see."

Xuan Ning let out a breath slowly.

The two of them, brother and sister, have a detached position in the royal family. Who would dare to attack them in public?
"Let's go."

Xuan Ning said lightly.

He took Xuan Lixue to the edge of the square.

"Hey, brother, it seems that something happened over there?"

Xuan Lixue stretched out her hand and pointed in the direction of the square.

"there……"

Xuan Ning followed her instructions and looked over there.

At this time, on the other side of the square, a man in a white robe was surrounded by a group of black-clothed assassins, and the situation was precarious.

Xuan Ning's pupils shrank suddenly: "That man is Dan Chenzi?!"

As an alchemist and an enshrinement of the royal family, he knew quite a few alchemists.

Dan Chenzi is also a very controversial existence.

He is a well-known pharmacist in the dynasty, and he also has a top-notch prescription!
This young man is the pride of the dynasty.

Xuan Ning once sparred with him, and admired his alchemy level very much.

It's a pity that Dan Chenzi has a weird personality and rarely shows up, so they don't have much communication.

However, Xuan Ning will never forget Dan Chenzi's appearance.

That man, dressed in white clothes better than the snow, has an outstanding demeanor.

He stood on the high platform, overlooking the crowd below, with a smile on his mouth, handsome and clear.

Xuan Ning couldn't help clenching his fists.

"These bastards!"

Dan Chenzi is the object of his most respect.

Unexpectedly, he was hunted down now.

Xuan Ning roared, his body shook, and a long sword was unsheathed in an instant, suspended in the air.

In the next second, he stepped on the void, flew up, and flew straight towards the group of assassins!

"Whoosh-!"

Xuan Ning's long sword was extremely sharp, and in the blink of an eye, three or four assassins were forced back!

"Protect the Supreme Elder!"

Upon seeing this, the commander of the Sirius army immediately gave the order.

In an instant, all the Heavenly Wolf Army rushed towards Xuanning.

At the same time, he drew out the saber from his waist and met the assassins.

While attacking, Xuan Ning shouted: "Lixue, quickly hide!"

"I know."

Xuan Lixue agreed, quickly concealed her figure, and hid herself.

Seeing this, Xuan Ning felt at ease and concentrated on dealing with the enemy.

However, soon, he frowned again.

Because, he discovered that these assassins were just a cover!
There were a total of six or seven assassins, and their martial skills were not strong, they were only the peak of martial saints.

However, those assassins, even though their companions were dealt with by him, continued to attack him without fear of death!

Their goal is... Xuan Lixue!

Xuan Ning's pupils narrowed slightly, and he flew up, blocking the attacks of those assassins.

However, just as he stopped one of them, a dark red figure suddenly appeared beside him.

"careful!"
