Chapter 395: Are Those in the City Lord’s Mansion More Powerful?
Then, Chen Ze began to observe the surrounding environment carefully.
The place where they were at the moment was quite similar to the scene when he was in the Liu family team before.
Along the way, the lush scenery gradually transitioned to a desolate land.
This barren land formed a sharp contrast with the lush forest before.
The ground was full of dry cracks, as if the earth was thirsty for a drop of water.
There was a burning breath in the air, which made people feel a little desolate.
Obviously, all these signs showed that they were getting closer and closer to the last palace.
Even if the clones have not sorted out the complete route to the last palace.
Chen Ze can also consider summoning all the clones.
After all, the range of the location of the last palace has been reduced to the minimum.
Let the clones disperse from here, and they will definitely be able to find the last palace.
Despite this, Chen Ze decided to give the clones another chance.
Just as he was lost in thought, the voice of the clones sounded again, interrupting his thoughts.
"Master, I succeeded! I have sorted out the route information for the next section!" The clone's voice was filled with excitement and fatigue that could not be concealed.
"Well done, let's set off now." Chen Ze said with satisfaction.
Although the clone's voice sounded a little tired because of the continuous sorting of memories, his persistence and hard work made Chen Ze feel very relieved.
The clone felt relieved at this time, and finally made up for his mistakes.
Chen Ze led the clone and hurried towards the palace according to the route guided by the clone.
At the same time, Chen Ze asked all the clones exploring in the secret realm to return to the space of all things to recover.
The clones have been exploring in the secret realm for a day and a night, and they are not in the best condition.
Moreover, it is not clear what the real intention of the City Lord's Mansion team is, so let the clone recover first and be ready to deal with the possible war at any time.
Chen Ze dare not underestimate the strength of the City Lord's Mansion team. After all, they are powerful enough to suppress the two major families in Longqing City.
Even a big family like the Liu family dare not openly resist the control of the City Lord's Mansion over a palace.
Chen Ze and his clone followed the last section of the route and had just walked forward for a while when they suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.
Several figures appeared on their route and stopped them.
At the same time, several figures appeared behind Chen Ze and his clone.
Two groups of people who appeared at the same time had surrounded Chen Ze and his clone.
Chen Ze looked at these people and analyzed the situation in his heart.
The appearance of these people was obviously not accidental. They should be sent by the City Lord's Mansion.
However, the dress of these people was different from the City Lord's Mansion staff seen at the entrance of the secret realm before.
Everyone was dressed in black robes and covered their faces, giving people a mysterious feeling.
Before Chen Ze asked the other party why he stopped them, a tall man in black robes said: "We have explored here. It is all desolate and there is nothing. Go explore other places!"
Chen Ze stared at the tall man in black robes with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
The man's tone was quite calm, without revealing too much arrogance, but he said this, isn't it a case of trying to cover up the truth?
No one would believe that there is nothing ahead, and why are you staying here without anything?
"What if I must go ahead and take a look?" While Chen Ze was speaking, he had quietly used his clairvoyance to quietly investigate the cultivation of several people.
Among the six black-robed men who suddenly appeared, only one was in the late Jindan realm, the one who spoke, and the other five were all in the middle Jindan realm.
Chen Ze had absolute confidence in his own strength. He believed that even if he didn't summon his clone, these six people were not his and his clone's opponents.
To be precise, as long as he took out the Taihe Sword, he alone would be enough.
"You..." The tall black-robed man seemed to have encountered such an ungrateful person for the first time, and he was furious.
He could match the Jindan realm of all the forces in Longqing City, and he had no impression of the two people in front of him.
Their intelligence work was not done in vain.
In this case, the two in front of him are probably just casual cultivators.
It is rare for casual cultivators to be so arrogant.
However, their purpose of entering the secret realm is not to argue with others.
"We are from the City Lord's Mansion. I advise you to leave now." The tall black-robed man looked at Chen Ze coldly. He was ready to be soft and hard.
Chen Ze smiled jokingly when he heard this, "Oh? What about the people from the City Lord's Mansion? When entering the secret realm, I didn't hear that I needed to take a detour when I met people from the City Lord's Mansion."
"Are you really going to be enemies with the City Lord's Mansion?" The tall black-robed man was obviously unhappy when he saw Chen Ze's response.
He waved his hand, and the other black-robed people also gathered around, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Chen Ze smiled lightly and replied: "We have no intention of being enemies with anyone, but if someone blocks our way, we can only force our way through."
The tall black-robed man heard Chen Ze's answer, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He knew that this battle was inevitable.
But he also began to wonder why the two people in front of him were so confident, so he couldn't help but become more vigilant.
The other black-robed men were also ready for battle, with various magical weapons flashing in their hands, and their aura suddenly became sharp.
As the two sides confronted each other, the atmosphere became more tense, and the conflict was imminent.
At this moment, Chen Ze released all his aura, and his cultivation in the late Jindan realm was fully revealed.
At the same time, the same aura broke out from his clone.
The aura of the black-robed men was immediately suppressed.
The tall black-robed man's face changed drastically, and he looked at Chen Ze and his clone in disbelief. He didn't expect that they were both strong men in the late Jindan realm.
However, even in the face of such an opponent, the tall black-robed man did not choose to retreat. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he decided not to say anything more.
The pressure in the air seemed to solidify with his determination, and a sharp aura burst out from him, pressing towards Chen Ze.
"I'll give you the last chance, leave immediately, otherwise you will bear the consequences!" The tall black-robed man's voice was icy cold, as if their fate had been doomed.
Chen Ze smiled lightly. Facing this momentum, he did not show any fear.
Since the battle could not be avoided, the only way was to defeat the opponent with the force of thunder.
"It seems that we can't reach an agreement, so we can only take action." Chen Ze said lightly.
"You are courting death!" Seeing this, the tall black-robed man laughed in anger and waved his hand to signal the other black-robed men to prepare for attack.
They are not just a few people. He has already sent out a signal for reinforcement. Now, as long as they delay these two people for a while, the others will arrive immediately.
By then, even if these two people are in the late Jindan realm, they can only surrender.
Chen Ze did not talk nonsense anymore. He directly sacrificed a flying sword. The sword flashed, and one of the three black-robed men in front was pierced by the flying sword.
Fortunately, Chen Ze deliberately held back. The black-robed man pierced by the flying sword just lost his combat effectiveness and his life was not in danger.
The three black-robed men behind Chen Ze were directly handed over to the clone to deal with.
Chen Ze suddenly summoned a flying sword, catching the black-robed man off guard.
The tall black-robed man looked at Chen Ze in surprise. Chen Ze's flying sword was too fast. If that sword was aimed at him, he would not be able to dodge it.
They were both in the late Jindan realm, so how could the gap be so big?
"Hold them, reinforcements will be here soon!"
The tall black-robed man shouted, and the black-robed man who was a little distracted quickly came back to his senses.
At the same time, he also summoned his own magic weapon and rushed towards Chen Ze.
