96 - Imperial Family Annual Auction

After two days of travelling, Cole and his group finally saw the towering walls of Heavenly Fire City, the capital of Heavenly Fire Empire. They have arrived at their destination.

The towering walls of the city are very impressive as besides being looking sturdy, it also looks exquisite. It could be easily seen that the city are very prosperous. But this already expected since besides being the ruler of the empire, the Imperial Family are known to be rich.

While they were at the road, Cole learn some informations about the Imperial Family.

The Imperial Family are known as Aflame Family. Aflame Family originates from Vermillion Territory, the territory of Divine Beast Vermillion Bird.

If the Azure Territory is a continent full of green forests and vegetation, basically the territory of Wood, the Vermillion Territory, on the other hand, is the place of volcanoes and fire. Due to it's special characteristic, most of the people of Vermillion Territory born to be talented with Fire-Energy. In addition, with the place's special characteristics, there were many people, sect or families that excell with professions related with fire, which is Alchemy, Forging and Cook.

Aflame Family was a clan of Alchemist. One of the most basic fact about Alchemist was they were filthy rich. Since Aflame Family was a clan full of Alchemist, the wealth they have can't be underestimated. In fact, Aflame Family could even be said more richer than most of the inferior family and sects from Middle Continent.

Alchemist is known to be weak when it comes to their offensive ability, however, despite this fact, the Aflame Family could still continue on ruling an empire. This was not because the Aflame Imperial Family is very powerful but the reason why the Aflame Family could still rule an empire until now was because of their network.

Pills is a must on cultivation, after all, not everyone is the same as Cole. There were even many cultivators who practically slave themselves to the Alchemist just to have a continuous flow of resources.

With the continuous cycle, an Alchesmist like Aflame caliber, their connection was very scary. There were many sects and families who is ready to die just to protect the Aflame Family, not to say that they also have an empire below them.

In the Azure Territory, the Aflame Family is invincible. Even the powerhouses from Middle and Western Continent won't casually attack the Aflame Family.

This was also the reason why Grand Elder Caira inform him personally lest he provoke a member of Aflame Family. Though, with Cole's temperament, he was not the one who provoke other party with petty reasons, it was still better to inform him first.

When Cole and the others travel towards the Heavenly Flame City, they have travelled using a Heaven-Rank Carriage. Since the carriage also have the seal of Five Element Sect, they just flew straight towards inside the city.

Flying in the city is prohibited, however, this rule was only those who were weak. Someone like Five Element Sect that originates from Middle Continent is exempted from this certain rule. This was one of the prestige enjoyed of powerful factions and individuals.

However, despite that, their group didn't cause any other commotion. They found the area intended for flying vehicles for landing and landed their. The flying carriage was immediately put inside back to Grand Elder Caira's storage ring.

The moment they landed, a fat man approach their group. "Welcome esteem guest from Five Element Sect!" He greeted with very enthusiastic voice.

Grand Elder Caira and the others just remain indifferent, not even bothering to reply to the man.

It was Ryan who nodded his head as acknowledgement then move forward and ask him, "We are here to attend the Aflame Family's Annual Auction, please guide us there."
