Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

City Lord You is a person who knows the routine very well. Eating is just an excuse. In fact, he just wants to see the guests off.

But what he didn't expect was that Marshal Su Lan also slowly stood up, just like a guest preparing to eat. City Lord You was slightly stunned, but then shook his head with a wry smile.

Su Lan is not such an ignorant person, but he is also a very smart person. He saw that City Lord You seemed to have something to talk to Zuo Feng, so he stayed shamelessly. But this is also easy to understand. After all, Linshan Villa is too special, and the Su family will not easily give up such a good opportunity to obtain information.

Especially in the previous conversation, it was also learned that the strange formation involved the legendary special space. This information has not been spread yet. Once this news is known to other families, they will definitely flock to it.

If you don't want to be kicked out now, it's better to stick to it like Su Lan.

The three of them walked down the mountain along the path on the hillside, slightly faster than when they came. When they came here, everyone was thinking about it. Zuo Feng also slowed down to observe the surrounding environment intentionally or unintentionally. Now, although they still have their own thoughts when they go back, at least the cooperation has been achieved.

After passing through the doorway, Amber and the people from the City Lord's Mansion were waiting outside. Everyone found that Sulan appeared with the City Lord, and they all showed surprise and suspicion. They didn't expect that the City Lord You would appear here at all.

Master Tao is indeed the calmest among the crowd. After a brief loss of composure, he walked over and locked the door again as if nothing had happened. This garden also looks very mysterious, and it seems that outsiders will not be allowed to enter easily.

Sulan ignored the eyes around her, just slightly behind the City Lord You, and followed him straight to a corridor on the side of the hall.

At this time, there were more people around, and the City Lord You and Sulan stopped talking. Only Amber came to Zuo Feng quietly and cast an inquiring look at him. Zuo Feng couldn't say much here, just smiled and nodded to him, and Amber secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The group walked through the corridor and came to a spacious courtyard behind the hall. This courtyard looks very luxurious, but it is slightly different from the architecture of the entire villa. Both the material and the decoration are a bit abrupt, and it should be built later.

The city lord pointed to a room on the right and said, "There are some places in this villa that you can't roam around at will, but you can move freely in this courtyard, and that room is for you to rest. You can rest assured about the safety here. Unless there are some special circumstances, no one will disturb you."

At the end of the words, the city lord did not forget to turn his head and look at Su Lan. The meaning of that sentence is also very clear. Only people like Su Lan will pose a threat to you, so there is no need to worry about safety.

This sentence sounded like it was to reassure Zuo Feng, but in fact he was expressing a kind of dissatisfaction. That was because he was dissatisfied with Sulan's uninvited visit, but at the same time, for some reasons, he couldn't get angry with her directly, so he could only vent his emotions in this way.

Sulan obviously didn't care about it, and waited aside with a blank expression. Seeing that no one responded to his words, the city lord You shook his sleeves and said angrily: "The food should be ready, so let's go inside to eat."

After saying this, Tao took a few quick steps and came to the room in the middle of the courtyard and pushed the door open. This room is very large, and it is a little dim even in the daytime, so at this time, several candles were lit in the room for lighting.

There was a table of wine and food in the middle of the room, which looked very rich, and it was indeed the standard for entertaining guests.

The city lord You hesitated slightly at the door and walked in. Although Zuo Feng and Sulan didn't say much, they could guess what the city lord was thinking. This meal was originally prepared by the city lord for Zuo Feng alone, and Sulan's appearance was not expected at all.

His original intention was to ask Tao to arrange for Amber to have dinner in another room. Now that Sulan was still here, he was too lazy to make other arrangements for Amber.

As the host, Youchengzhu didn't say much, and Zuofeng gave Amber a look at the right time. In this way, a total of four people walked into the room.

After the four sat down, they just casually exchanged a few polite words. Sulan didn't say anything, but the expression on her face seemed a little unhappy. However, Youchengzhu didn't take these too seriously. In fact, as long as he didn't anger Sulan, he was still willing to do things that made her unhappy.

This meal was actually a bit depressing. Youchengzhu just chatted with Zuofeng briefly. It was nothing more than asking about Zuofeng's situation. Zuofeng naturally didn't dare to tell the other party about his true situation, so he had to carefully use some lies to get by.

There are many kinds of lies. Some people are born to like lying. Even if it is a simple matter, some people are willing to mix many lies in it. And some others don't like to lie, but sometimes they have to lie because of some lenient factors.

Zuo Feng belongs to the latter. He doesn't tell many lies, and he mixes them with the truth, which makes it difficult to tell the truth from the false. However, his lies also need to be carefully considered, because he has told Su Lan some of his own situation before, and now he has to be more careful.

The truth does not need to be remembered, but sometimes lies will be forgotten after being spoken casually, and once someone with ulterior motives confronts them later, it will be easy to reveal their true colors. Fortunately, Zuo Feng is a person with a careful mind and a very good memory. Even if the lie was not told for too long, he can still remember it.

After lunch, Zuo Feng proposed to go to the location of the black crystal, which was also the agreement they had reached before. The only difference was that he asked Amber to go with him this time.

This request made the city lord hesitate for a long time, but in the end he had to agree after thinking it over again and again. Su Lan did not mean to leave, so she followed the city lord and Zuo Feng to the place where the black crystal was stored.

The passage was slightly different from the last time. This time they entered from a more hidden cave. The road inside the cave was not easy to walk, but the distance was much closer. The group entered the cave and walked for less than a quarter of an hour before arriving at an underground space.

This place is different from the last time. The cave here is completely sealed, and it is not a place where you can see the sky last time. This time, the three of them were in a cave inside a mountain, and the space seemed to be slightly smaller than the last time.

Zuo Feng was not too surprised by this, because he saw that the cave on the mountain wall next to him should be connected to the place where the black crystal was placed.

Zuo Feng pulled Amber aside, quietly explained to her, and then went to the black crystal by himself.

After Amber secretly remembered what Zuo Feng said, she came to the black crystal silently, and like all those who had felt the black crystal, she slowly put her palm on the surface of the black crystal. But before touching the black crystal, Amber first quietly adjusted her breath for a long time.

Originally, the city lord and Su Lan did not take it too seriously, but when they accidentally discovered Amber's breathing process, they immediately looked at her strangely.

Because with their cultivation in the Qi Refining Period, they would be keenly aware of the changes in the aura of warriors like Amber. But after Amber adjusted his breath for a while, the aura around his body suddenly lost any changes, as if he had become a dead person at this moment.

They immediately felt something special about this change, and they also immediately understood that Zuo Feng had quietly told him something before, but they didn't take it seriously at first, so they didn't hear what they said. If they wanted to eavesdrop, they could eavesdrop on the conversation if they were not far away.

Although they didn't know what Zuo Feng had said, it was obvious that there were some special ways in it, especially Zuo Feng's understanding of the black crystal stone was even far greater than that of the city lord.

Zuo Feng was not in a hurry to make contact with the black crystal stone at this time, but slowly circled around the black crystal stone, as if he was concentrating on observing something.

The situation on Amber's side suddenly changed again, and a majestic aura instantly rushed out from his forehead, as if it was free and vented everywhere.

At this moment, the city lord and Su Lan both changed their faces, because doing so was almost venting all the aura in the warrior's body. If it was released like this, the warrior would not only lose his cultivation, but even his life would be in danger, but Amber seemed to have no scruples.

As this catharsis was released, Amber's face gradually lost its color and became as pale as paper. His body also began to shrink in circles under the flow of this spiritual energy.

Seeing that Amber's current cultivation was unstable and even showed signs of regression, he suddenly raised his palm and pressed it on the black crystal.

At the moment when his palm pressed on the black crystal, it was not Amber and the black crystal that established a connection, but it seemed that the black crystal took the initiative to contact Amber. At the moment when the two established a connection, Amber's whole body was like a ball filled with air, and it swelled up a circle.

The city lord and Su Lan instinctively widened their eyes, because at this moment they both felt an indescribable energy spreading out from Amber's body. It was not the first time for the two of them to see someone comprehend the black crystal, but they could guarantee that such a strange scene was definitely the only one they had ever seen.

If they had only guessed before that Zuo Feng told Amber some tricks, now they were sure that what Zuo Feng told Amber was definitely a special method, a method they had never known or heard of before.
