Chapter 480: Chapter 374: Town of Chaos (6th Update)

There are numerous towns in this world, but not every town has the privilege to become a "market center". The formation of such an "economic center" requires considerable time accumulation and other conditions.

Around the wooden rack in the information center facing the end of the road, broad roads divided, leading to different places. One of them led to the "trading center district". At this moment, Lei Rui and others were driving a horse carriage towards the "trading center district".

The road was bustling, and all sorts of characters could be seen. There were people wearing simple animal skins and people wearing rather noble cloth garments. There were bewitching women and robust, powerful men. There were those with drooping eyebrows who appeared cautious and careful, but there were also men who held themselves high and appeared to be insufferably arrogant.

This "Peach Blossom Town" had a complicated mix of people. There were landlords who lived there, and people from villages of various sizes and different degrees of influence. The disparity of strength and the difference in origin among these people led to an array of behavior.

For this reason, upon arriving in the "Peach Blossom Town", frictions could easily occur between people. Even though the "Peach Blossom Town" authorities strictly forbid brawls and killings, such prohibitions proved particularly fragile to a group of people with powers beyond the ordinary. Violent confrontations were inevitable.

As soon as they entered the town, Lei Rui sternly reminded everyone not to have frictions with people casually. But barely a hundred meters into the town, they heard a "boom" from a distance, followed by a big man, his face covered in blood, being violently thrown out from the door of a house on the other side.

A wave of surprise swept through the surroundings as crowds quickly swarmed around, their faces smug as they watched the dramatic scene unfold.

Zhang Zhongmou, riding the "Black Horse King", immediately attracted attention as soon as he entered the town. Many people eyed him with a tinge of jealousy. Unaware, Zhang Zhongmou excitedly watched the scene in the distance and laughed, "I didn’t expect a good show as soon as we arrived. I told you, ’Peach Blossom Town’ is a great place."

Su Yu slightly knitted his brows, looking at Lei Rui and Ma Ziye, and asked, "Has ’Peach Blossom Town’ always been this chaotic?"

Lei Rui sighed, "There’s no helping it. Everyone here is ambitious. They refuse to submit to each other, and even the smallest disputes can lead to friction. Such incidents are inevitable. People, once they have power, tend to deem themselves extraordinary. Who would swallow their pride then? Unless the power of the other party completely surpasses their own, it’s difficult to avoid conflict."

Su Yu nodded and looked around. Among these people of all kinds, almost all were fourth-order warriors. Both parties in conflicts had similar ranks. Once a conflict arose, it was naturally difficult for one to submit to the other, and it ultimately resolved with force. Among these people, the occasional fifth-order could be seen, but they were extremely scarce. Over ninety percent were fourth-order warriors, and the parties involved in conflicts were mainly of the fourth order.

At this moment, the blood-spattered man who had been violently thrown to the ground struggled and screamed, "You just wait. The village chief of ’Righteousness Village’ is here. You will pay for this."

Laughter erupted from the other side, and someone sarcastically responded, "What’s this ’Righteousness Village’? Such a thing! If you have guts, get your so-called ’chief’ to come over here. Make sure he remembers my name. I am from ’Peach Blossom Town’, under the orders of Lord Murong. Let your pathetic ’chief’ come find our Lord Murong."

Apparently, the name "Lord Murong" carried a significant weight. The crowd around drew a sharp breath after hearing it. Someone whispered, "Even if the village chief of ’Righteousness Village’ is capable, how could he dare to provoke ’Lord Murong’? This guy from the ’Righteousness Village’ has bad luck, to have offended a man of Murong."

The man, his face covered with blood, seemed frightened. He barely managed to get up and disappeared into the crowd.

Upon watching this, Su Yu smiled slightly and said, "This Lord Murong seems to have a high status in ’Peach Blossom Town’?". He couldn’t help but think of the leader of "Peach Blossom Town", Jin Fuhua, whom he had met twice in the Fire Elemental Space. Jin Fuhua had been polite to him and had even invited him to visit "Peach Blossom Town" at his leisure.

When Su Yu first heard the name Jin Fuhua, he was just a Level Five warrior, and Jin Fuhua was a sixth-order powerhouse, the only one in thousands of miles. However, time has changed, and Su Yu has now ascended to a seventh stage expert. He’s seen more sixth-order powerhouses than one could count. It was uncertain what Jin Fuhua’s current strength had become. Had he also become a seventh-order expert, or even something stronger?

Seeing Su Yu mentioned "Lord Murong", Lei Rui beside him smiled and said, "This Lord Murong seems to be the leader of one of the four most influential forces ruling Peach Blossom Town. I don’t know his full name, but his prestige here is quite high, not much less than that of Peach Blossom Town’s leader Jin Fuhua."
