"This mansion is quite famous,” Xu Zimei asked.
"It’s more than just famous; in the Chaos Fire Domain, it has an illustrious reputation.
Even the Chaos Palace wouldn’t easily provoke them,” Bian Wenzhou looked at Xu Zimei and said.
"How about we go back first and plan carefully?”
"First, tell me about the origins of this mansion,” Xu Zimei asked.
"Chaos Fire Domain, you’ve surely heard of the name of the Ancestor of Chaotic Flame.”
Bian Wenzhou asked.
Xu Zimei nodded slightly.
Even if he hadn’t heard of it, after spending some time here, it was talked about so much his ears were almost ground into calluses.
"The Ancestor of Chaotic Flame left after creating the Chaos Fire Domain.These are just rumors.
In fact, besides the Ancestor of Fire, there were a few of his brothers who actually created the Chaos Fire Domain back then.”
Bian Wenzhou explained.
"Brothers?” Shangguan Xian, who was beside him, thought for a moment.
She asked, “Are you talking about the Three Elders of the Holy Flame?”
"That’s right, it’s the Three Elders of the Holy Flame.
At that time, in the entire Chaos Fire Domain, aside from the Ancestor of Fire, they were the strongest.”
Bian Wenzhou nodded and said: “When the Chaos Fire Domain was first established, the Ancestor of Fire left.
Actually, the Chaos Fire Domain was just a small force at the beginning.
Its growth to the current level, even being comparable with the Seven Great Fire Domains, is entirely due to the Three Elders of the Holy Flame.”
"The Three Elders of the Holy Flame brought the Chaos Fire Domain to its current level.
They undoubtedly have made an indelible contribution.
After relinquishing their power, they secluded themselves completely and ceased worldly affairs.
As for this mansion, it is the residence of their descendants.”
Hearing what Bian Wenzhou said, Xu Zimei asked, “But what does this have to do with our search for the Tyrant Blade?”
"We can’t act recklessly inside the mansion.
Moreover, we have no proof that the Tyrant Blade is hidden in the mansion.”
Bian Wenzhou replied, “After all, your compass is a dead object and cannot be used as evidence.
If it infuriates the mansion, then it means going against the entire Chaos Fire Domain.”
"Are you scared?” Xu Zimei asked.
"To be honest, I am the City Lord of Fireloathing City.
I must consider everything concerning Fireloathing City.
I am indeed scared,” Bian Wenzhou admitted candidly.
"If you’re scared, then don’t get involved,” Xu Zimei waved his hand, saying indifferently.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Bian Wenzhou’s expression slightly changed.
Changing his previous attitude, he looked at Xu Zimei seriously and said, “Young Master Xu, our Fireloathing City is willing to advance and retreat with you.
I would even risk my old life for you if necessary.”
Xu Zimei glanced at Bian Wenzhou.
Then he looked at the tranquil void behind him.
"Did you receive guidance from a master?”
"Let Young Master Xu be amused,” Bian Wenzhou said with a bitter smile.
"It’s Bian Shishi, isn’t it,” Xu Zimei asked.
Bian Wenzhou only responded with a bitter smile.
"Alright, I’m not in a hurry to meet her.
If she wants to see me, she’ll naturally handle it,” Xu Zimei waved his hand and said.
He looked towards the mansion and said to Zhang Hengzhi beside him, “If your Heavenly Being Immortal Sect doesn’t want to be involved, you can also retreat now.”
"I believe in Young Master Xu,” Zhang Hengzhi said firmly.
Having gone through so many times, he feels that Xu Zimei definitely wouldn’t do anything without confidence.
"And you?” Xu Zimei turned his gaze to Shangguan Xian.
"Of course, I believe in you unconditionally,” Shangguan Xian said with a smile.
"Then let’s start by knocking on the door,” Xu Zimei instructed.
"Have them hand over the Tyrant Blade.
If they are willing, there will be no need for drastic actions.
If they aren’t, then we’ll just have to fight our way in.”
"Let me do it,” Bian Wenzhou said.
He walked toward the mansion and was stopped by guards on both sides as soon as he stepped onto the stairs.
"Stop, the mansion grounds are not to be entered without an invitation.
Don’t you know that?” the guard rebuked.
"Could you please have the person in charge of your mansion come out,” Bian Wenzhou said, a bit more assertively.
He said, “The person we’re trying to capture should be hiding in your mansion.”
"What a joke, do you have the qualification to see our master?” The guard sneered.
Impatiently, as if shooing away a fly, he said, “Get lost quickly, or don’t blame us for being rude.”
"You…,” Bian Wenzhou’s face turned unpleasant.
"Mansion Leader Fu, let me handle this,” Shangguan Xian chuckled softly beside him.
With a wave of her right hand, a powerful surge of Spiritual Energy immediately came crashing down.
The two guards attempted to draw their blades to resist, but they were no match at all.
Under a formidable strength, they were directly sent flying away.
"What… what are you trying to do?” The two guards exclaimed in panic.
"Go and fetch the person in charge,” Shangguan Xian said coldly.
"Or I will let you litter the ground,” she added.
"You… wait,” the two guards exchanged a glance and eventually retreated, stumbling back into the mansion.
……
Upon seeing Shangguan Xian’s actions, Bian Wenzhou felt slightly embarrassed.
As the City Lord of Fireloathing City.
The Manor Master of Black Crow Mansion.
His own status is also prestigious, yet he didn’t expect that upon arriving at Chaos City, he turned into a small figure who no one gave face to.
After waiting for a moment, a group of people suddenly rushed out from inside like fierce maniacs.
This group of people should be the mansion’s guards.
Each one had a strong presence, wearing the same style of silver robe.
Upon their emergence, dozens of them immediately surrounded Xu Zimei and his group.
"Who? Who dares attack our mansion’s people?”
The leader was a rotund man with a topknot hat and a mustache.
"Steward Huang, it’s that woman,”
The guard who had been beaten pointed at Shangguan Xian and said.
Although Steward Huang wasn’t particularly handsome.
But he still had some face to maintain.
His eyes scanned Xu Zimei’s group, clearly recognizing that Xu Zimei was the leader of these people.
Furthermore, since the other side had proactively come to the mansion and beaten the guards. .
This indicated that the other party was entirely unafraid of them.
His eyes rolled as he smiled and asked, “I wonder when our mansion offended you all?”
"Offense isn’t exactly the right word.
It’s just that I want to speak to the one in charge, but these two guards refused to pass on the message,” Shangguan Xian said indifferently.
Steward Huang was momentarily stunned.
Usually, anyone coming to the mansion would need to make an appointment in advance.
If you don’t make an appointment and just show up, of course the guards wouldn’t let you in.
However, Steward Huang remained expressionless, squinting slightly as he asked, “May I have your names?”
"This is Young Master Xu, who recently took first place in the competition in the Chaos Fire Domain,” Bian Wenzhou promptly revealed Xu Zimei’s identity.
After all, mentioning their own identities wouldn’t hold much weight.
They might not even bother with them.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Steward Huang’s expression immediately turned more amiable and enthusiastic.
He abruptly kicked the complaining guard to the ground.
And sternly said, “You’ve blinded your dog eyes, Young Master Xu is a valued guest of our mansion.
How dare you refuse to notify?”
He waved his hand grandly, instructing, “Someone, drag him down and behead him.”
Amidst the guard’s pleas for mercy, he was dragged away.
