Blackwater City

Ye Fan stayed in the cabin hall for a while, feeling out of place with the other kings of forces, so he left the cabin and stood alone on the bow deck blowing the river breeze, looking at the surging black water in the distance, wondering how long it would take To reach Blackwater Bay.

At some point, the Ghost Queen appeared on the deck silently, "Brother Ye, it was a bit presumptuous to say those words at the previous banquet without your consent. I wonder if you are interested in the Candle Dragon Sacred Cave?" The Emperor has three places in his hand, and I can give you one of them to enter the Candle Dragon Sacred Cave."

"Your Majesty the Queen, there are so many forces involved in Blackwater Bay, the number of kings is hard to count, and the number of kings is probably not a few. I am just an ordinary martial king, and I will not be of much help to you!"

Ye Fan smiled and shook his head, not too interested in the excavation of the Candle Dragon Cave.

It's not that the Candle Dragon Sacred Cave is unimportant.

This undiscovered Candle Dragon Cave must be an extremely valuable relic of the ancient gods, so it has attracted the prying eyes of the forces in Blackwater Bay and they are fighting for it.

But that was not the purpose of his trip. He just wants to stay in Blackwater Bay for a few years or more to practice wholeheartedly and break through to the Martial Emperor stage as soon as possible.

Moreover, with so many large and small forces eyeing the Candle Dragon Cave, once they start to rob it, the fighting and killing will definitely be extremely brutal. As a person without any power in Blackwater Bay, there is no need for him to get involved.

"You are wrong about this. The emperor's realm cannot enter the holy cave. This candle dragon ruins is an abandoned dragon's nest holy cave. As a place for gods to raise young dragons, it has extremely strong sealing protection power. It has A powerful emperor cannot enter at all, but only a lower level king can enter. Although this holy cave is abandoned, the sealing power still exists to this day.

Otherwise, the Butcher has occupied the Candle Dragon Mine for a long time, and he would have gone in countless times. Moreover, it is very dangerous inside, and even an ordinary king would find it difficult to survive in the Holy Cave.

Although there are many forces who are interested in the Zhulong ruins, there are very few kings who can enter. Each force only has two or three kings at most, so the stronger the members are, the better, in order to hope to find the remaining holy objects inside.

If you were Emperor Wu or Marquis Wu, I would not deliberately win over you. But you happen to be the Martial King, and the top Martial King, and you are of great use to me.

The strongest one under my command is the Skeleton King, and its combat power is probably less than half of yours. If you join our side, the strength of our side will undoubtedly be doubled. "

The Ghost Queen explained.

"oh!"

Ye Fan somewhat understood why the Ghost Queen was so active in winning over him.

It turns out that it is for this reason that this Candle Dragon Sacred Cave has a powerful sealing power that prevents emperor-level forces from entering.

This made him a little curious, "Are there any dragons and young dragons alive in this holy cave?"

"It should be gone. I haven't heard any news about the Dragon Clan from the Shenwu Continent for a long time! There should be no Zhulong Clan in this abandoned holy cave!"

The Ghost Queen hesitated.

In fact, it is not sure whether there are any young dragons in the Holy Cave. After all, no one has gone in, and no one has come out alive from the Candle Dragon Holy Cave. "However, there must be a large number of relics of the Zhulong clan inside. Many of them are holy-level items and are very valuable. If you and the Skeleton King can go inside and bring out the holy items, I can share some of them with you!"

Ye Fan thought for a while, but still didn't agree, "I have important things to do when I go to Blackwater Bay. Wait until I finish the work and then consider whether to go!"

"That's fine! I will stay in the Blackwater Bay area during this period to contact all parties and prepare for the excavation of the Candle Dragon ruins. If you decide to go to the Holy Cave, you can come to the Ghost Ship to find me at any time! "

The Ghost Queen did not force it.

…

More than half a month later.

The ghost ship finally arrived at the port of Blackwater Bay and docked at a large port near the coast.

Ye Fan thanked the Ghost Queen and said goodbye, then got off the ghost ship and headed to Blackwater City near the ferry.

The Skeleton King stood on the deck with the Ghost Queen, with two ghost fires in his eyes, watching Ye Fan leave, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, although his strength is very outstanding, he is a human race after all, and he has no regard for us. Unreliable, it would be too risky to let him join us to excavate the ruins of the Candle Dragon. Why not kill him directly and transform him into a ghost? This human Martial King has very good scheming and strength. He can at least be among the top among the human Martial Kings. Among the top ten, if he can become a ghost clan, we will have one more capable person!"

"No! This person's strength is immeasurable among the human race. If he could become a ghost race, he would be extremely outstanding. But if I kill him and then resurrect him as a ghost race, he will definitely harbor hatred and will not return. If you submit to me, you will join other ghost tribes. I need to borrow the help of others to kill him, and then resurrect him, in order to gain his true loyalty. Blackwater Bay is not big, and all the forces are afraid Everyone will be involved in this operation, and we will meet him again sooner or later, so there is no need to rush! If he is willing to go to the Candle Dragon Sacred Cave, it will be an excellent place to conquer him."

The Ghost Queen said calmly and enigmatically.

The Skeleton King pondered and couldn't help but nod, "Her Majesty the Queen is indeed far-sighted! If he dies in the Holy Cave and harvests a top ghost king without spending a single soldier, that would be perfect!"

…

In the middle section of the Blackwater River, there is a sharp bend where several other large rivers converge. The terrain is very complicated. Surrounded by water on three sides, this is the famous Blackwater Bay.

Blackwater Bay is an open land thousands of miles in diameter. A majestic and majestic city rises from the dangerous location of Blackwater Bay.

Originally, some criminals who had been exiled by various ethnic groups gathered in Blackwater Bay and built a small city.

In order to survive, there is no scruple, and it is normal to make deals with foreign races.

Later, merchants from all races discovered that this place was profitable and could be exchanged for miles of treasures from other races. They also gathered here one after another, eventually forming such a large-scale city with a population of one million.

If it were placed in the Zixuan Dynasty, it would be just a small city with a medium-sized population, and it would not be worth mentioning.

But within the boundaries of Zhongzhou, it is definitely a rare big city to gather such a huge population.

The most important thing is that the combat effectiveness of this city is extremely high. Almost all of them are at the realm of Martial Lord and Beast Lord, and there are countless people above the Marquis level. Martial Kings can be seen everywhere.

This majestic city has no nominal owner.

Only some emperors hidden behind the scenes, mysterious figures known as the "Seven Leaders of Blackwater City", are controlling the situation in Blackwater City.

For example, the Butcher is one of the seven leaders of Blackwater City, commanding the largest gang in Blackwater City, the Butcher Gang.

They rarely show up, and those standing at the front desk are all king-level people.

There were once regiments from the Beast Alliance and the imperial dynasty that wanted to capture this Blackwater City and monopolize the huge trade benefits of this Blackwater City, but they all ended in failure.

The forces within Blackwater City are too powerful and possess unimaginable wealth. No one wants this city to be occupied by the Nanzhou Beast Alliance and the Zixuan Dynasty.

In addition, this place has the natural barrier of the Blackwater River as the best barrier, making it difficult for large corps to attack here, which makes Blackwater City an extremely safe place.

In the city, humans, beasts, ghosts and spirits can be seen everywhere.

Businessmen of all ethnic groups came in groups, escorted by bodyguards, in and out of Blackwater City, exchanging the treasures they wanted.
