Li Chen's group consisted of five people. The two sisters would definitely accompany Li Chen to Luoshui Manor. Jiang Rong planned to return to the Jiang family to organize the industries in Shanghe City and then convene a large-scale joint chamber of commerce to discuss foreign trade.

Jiang Mo first went back to the Jiang family with her sister, and then went back to the sect.

When the train arrived near Shanghe City, Li Chen and his group planned to get off.

At present, the rail train only passes through major cities. The place where Luoshui Mountain Villa is located is relatively remote, so we have to find another way to travel.

They would definitely need to tidy up before getting off the train, and by the time they got off, Jun Zhantian and his son had already disembarked.

At Shanghe City train station, accompanied by a low, humming psionic energy, the train slowly pulled into the platform.

The moment the car door opened, Jun Zhantian stepped out, followed by Jun Wuhui, who was dressed in white.

"Is this Shanghe City?"

Jun Zhantian raised his eyebrows slightly, his gaze sweeping over the bustling scene before him, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The streets are paved with whole pieces of 'Azure Spirit Stone', and each tile is engraved with intricate spirit-gathering array patterns. Walking on them, you can feel a faint surge of spiritual energy under your feet, which reduces fatigue.

Shops lined both sides of the street, their signs gleaming with various lights:

Inside the glass display case of Wanbaoge, dozens of magical artifacts floated and slowly rotated within the defensive barrier, attracting the attention of many passing cultivators.

In front of Baixianglou, a bronze alchemy furnace phantom continuously spews spiritual mist, and the aroma of fine wine attracts countless wine lovers with their cravings.

This was Jun Zhantian's first time here, and when he heard his father say that, he thought he had gotten off at the wrong station.

However, his father quickly explained, "The layout of the streets is generally correct, I just feel that the changes here are too great."

At this point, Jun Wu Hui paused for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Twenty years ago, the streets here were still paved with yellow dirt. Cultivators would fight in the streets, and the officials would only dare to hide in the yamen and tremble with fear."

Because there are many cultivation resources in this area, and many large sects are located here, it is very chaotic.

It is also a place where many disciples from cultivation families come to train.

Before they finished speaking, a squad of city guards dressed in light black iron armor passed by them.

The captain at the head of the group exuded a powerful aura, and the "Tian Ce" emblem on his chest shone brightly.

The standard rifles held by the team members were all inlaid with grade three lightning-type crystals.

This amazed Jun Zhantian and his son. For ordinary cultivation families, a third-grade lightning crystal was already a luxury, but a family of their level could still afford it.

How come ordinary city guards are equipped with this?
Neither Jun Zhantian nor his son could imagine what the Imperial Guards of the capital would be equipped with.

They're probably all magical artifacts, right?

In fact, their guess was correct. Since the Dragon Emperor had given away too many resources, Li Chen felt that keeping them would be a waste, so he decided to use some and appropriately upgrade the configuration.

Now, the children of the combat academies in the Tian Ce Dynasty all dream of becoming members of the Imperial Guard.

Not only do they enjoy high salaries and status, but they are also dressed in top-notch attire, making it a truly coveted position.

Jun Zhantian and his son were both focused on cultivation and didn't have high requirements for food and lodging. They simply ate something in Shanghe City and hurried on their way to Luoshui Manor.

But Jun Zhantian's physique is very special. When he appears in a certain place, some stunning beauties will automatically 'spawn' nearby.

On his way to Luoshui Manor, Jun Zhantian saw a group of masked mysterious figures attacking another group of masked mysterious figures. Normally, in such a feud between people of unknown identities, Jun Zhantian would simply leave, or perhaps even watch from the sidelines if he was interested.

As the two groups fought, one group was at a disadvantage, with the number of deaths steadily increasing, and it seemed they were about to be wiped out.

At this moment, the veil of a well-built woman in black was torn off, revealing a delicate face. Her skin was fair, and her lips were even more vibrant because of the blood. The resentment in her eyes stirred the heart.

Jun Zhantian doesn't mean that the cerebellum controls the brain; he just likes to show off in front of beautiful women.

Now that he finally had a chance, he immediately went down to rescue her.

Jun Zhantian moved with lightning speed, appearing before the beauty in a flash. His white robes fluttered as he stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping sharply over the group of men in black opposite him. He shouted righteously, "Villains! In broad daylight, you dare to bully the few and commit murder by outnumbering yourselves? Do you really think there is no law in Shanghe City?"

His voice was clear and resonant, full of righteousness, giving him the air of a chivalrous person who would draw his sword to help those in need.

There's no need to question right or wrong; he can say whatever he wants.

The leader of the men in black opposite him turned cold and said in a chilling voice, "Where did this blind fool come from? You're asking for death!"

Before he finished speaking, he sprang up, his long sword flashing with a chilling light, and slashed straight at Jun Zhantian's face!

boom!
Jun Zhantian didn't even draw his sword. He just casually waved his hand, and an invisible burst of energy erupted. The man in black was struck as if by lightning. He flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground. His chest caved in, and he died on the spot!
"Boss!" The other men in black were shocked to see this, but before they could react, Jun Zhantian had already flashed into the crowd like a ghost. His fists and palms flew, and every strike was extremely accurate. In an instant, two more people fell to the ground and died, without even having time to scream!

"Retreat! Retreat now!" The remaining men were terrified and dared not fight any longer.
They immediately scattered and fled, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

With the crisis averted, Jun Zhantian turned to look at the injured beauty, cupped his hands slightly, and asked in a gentle tone, "Are you alright, young lady?"

As for the injured people next to the beauty, Jun Zhantian didn't even glance at them.

To put it bluntly, if it weren't for the fact that she was a beauty, Jun Zhantian wouldn't have bothered to make a move.

The beautiful woman clutched the wound on her shoulder, looked up, and her eyes were filled with gratitude and amazement.

Although her face was pale, it couldn't hide her stunning beauty; on the contrary, it made people want to protect her even more.

She gave a graceful bow, her voice soft yet tinged with weakness: "Thank you for saving me, young master. My name is Qiu Qingxia. May I ask your honorable name?"

Jun Zhantian smiled calmly and said, "I am Jun Zhantian. It was just a small favor, nothing to mention."

A strange light flashed in Qiu Qingxia's eyes as she said softly, "So it's Young Master Jun. I will never forget your life-saving grace. If you don't mind, would you like to come with me to Qiuyue Manor for a chat? That way, I can do my best to repay your kindness as a host."

Upon hearing this, Jun Zhantian subconsciously glanced at Jun Wuhui behind him.

In fact, Jun Zhantian wasn't the kind of person who was lustful. This time, he just made a move because of his old habit of wanting to show off in front of a beautiful woman.

Whether or not he went to Qiuyue Manor was irrelevant to him.

Seeing his father nod slightly, he nodded in agreement: "In that case, I'll trouble you."

Jun Wu Hui looked at the beautiful woman named Qiu Qingxia, lost in thought.

Because the sword technique that Qiu Qingxia just used was one that he had taught to someone here!

Moreover, this girl looks somewhat familiar, and she resembles that person in some ways.
