Rebirth Of The Supreme Celestial Being (1-200)

146- Deadlock at City Gate

Ch146 - Deadlock at City Gate

In this Hundred Families Gathering, every participating family will receive an invitation card issued by the Huangfu family to allow them to enter and leave Sky Peak City. Of course, only the family's supervising officer will have this invitation card, and will thus be held responsible in case the family's pupils encounter accidents while staying in the city.

This was also the Huangfu city lord's ingenuity.

After waiting for half an hour, the caravan moved forward a little.

Duan Yuyang frowned. "Why is it so slow? When I came here before, the speed of entry was still pretty fast."

Lin Xuanzhi looked at the procession in front of him, "It seems that all the families participating in the Hundred Families Gathering came at this time, especially today."

Duan Yuyang observed for a moment and nodded. "I'd better get some sleep first."

After he said that, Duan Yuyang got back into the carriage, found a soft couch on the side, and lied down.

After another half hour, Lin Xuanzhi saw that a fight seemed to have started near the gate in the distance.

The air was shrill, and flames were blazing. One could see that a few cultivators had started fighting wordlessly. They were bloody and looked particularly frightening.

All the people in the queue couldn't help but stretch their heads out and ask each other what had happened in front of them.

The Lin family also sent a death knight to the front to investigate.

A moment later, the death knight returned.

Lin Xuanzhi faced the man clad in a war robe, "What caused the fight ahead?"

The death knight respectfully replied, "It's because it was originally a family ranked 72nd from the South Continent's turn to enter, but a 10th-ranked first-class family from the South Continent arrived afterwards and insisted on entering before them, so the two families started quarreling, followed by fighting."

Lin Xuanzhi thought for a moment and understood.

It seemed that the relationship between the two families from the South Continent was not very good. It was already a common occurrence for first-class families to suppress third-class families everywhere.

Yan Tianhen asked, "Then how will this be resolved now?"

The death knight replied, "Someone from the city lord's government came forward to stop the fight and allowed the 10th-ranked family to enter first."

Yan Tianhen said, "It's too unreasonable to bully people like this."

When Lin Xuanzhi heard this, he nodded. "There is indeed no justice in this; it's outright bullying."

However, this was the law of Sky Peak City - this was a place where a family's status and power were especially valued. People were divided into different classes, and families were also divided into classes.

After another two hours, the Lin family's carriages finally arrived in front of the city gate.

A hundred armored guards stood at the gate. They all looked powerful and solemn, their demeanors quite different from those guarding Qing City. In addition, every one of them was above the Refining Qi seventh layer. If anyone dared to make trouble, then that person may not even be able to enter before being killed.

A guard walked up and swept his gaze over the Lin family's convoy. "Who is this family's supervising officer?"

Lin Xuanzhi sat in the carriage and swept his hand once. A card made of transparent crystal emitting a faint blue light flew into the gate guard's hands. The guard glanced at the second carriage and said nothing. He lowered his head and began to check the card in his hand.
