Chapter 231: Annihilation
"Forging Weapons Hall?"
Zhu He's gaze swept over the burly man and the disciples behind him. A trace of wariness flashed through his eyes. Then he looked toward the bow-wielding man and laughed coldly, "So it's you, Liao Chuan! You old ghost, instead of cowering in your turtle shell at Black Water Giant City, you actually dare to have the guts to come out and wade into these murky waters? Aren't you afraid of being targeted and dying without an intact corpse?"
The bow-wielding man called Liao Chuan had a gaunt face but sharp eyes.
Hearing this, he didn't get angry. Instead, he let out a hoarse low laugh, like a night owl's cry, "Heh heh... Old Ghost Zhu, it's been many years, yet you're still so foul-mouthed. Though Black Water Giant City is good, staying too long gets stifling. Besides, when heavenly treasures descend, those with virtue shall possess them. This Falling Star Slope isn't your Wang Family's back garden. Why can't I, Liao Chuan, come here?"
Not far away, Chen Qing, concealed in the shadows, heard the four words "Black Water Giant City" and his heart couldn't help but stir.
The Yan Kingdom's eleven giant cities were each extraordinary, and this Black Water Giant City was undoubtedly one of the most unique among them.
It nominally belonged to the Yan Kingdom court, but in reality was a true lawless land, a zone beyond jurisdiction.
Traitors from the six great Upper Sects, wanted criminals and scoundrels, spies from various factions, merchants conducting gray transactions... dragons and snakes mixed together, with order jointly maintained by several of the largest underground forces.
It was said that inside there were even secret industries of millennial aristocratic families and certain important figures from the court acting as their gloves.
