Mainland Martial Arts

The city lord nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you some time to think about it. But time is running out."

Lin Feng and Chen Xiner bid farewell to the city lord and walked out of the city lord's mansion.

Lin Feng and Chen Xiner returned to the Chen family with heavy hearts.

The head of the Chen family saw their expressions and had already guessed something in his mind.

Lin Feng told the head of the Chen family the city lord's request, and the head of the Chen family fell into deep thought.

Chen Minghui said from the side: "Master, that is our family treasure, we can't give it away easily."

"Lin Feng, this heirloom is no small matter. It is the treasure that my father, Xiner's grandfather, used to establish the authority of the Chen family." Chen Hongtao said slowly, with a hint of worry in his voice.

At this time, Chen Xiner said without hesitation: "Father, just take out the heirloom and help Lin Feng!"

Chen Hongtao looked at his daughter, feeling helpless. "Xin'er, this is no small matter. This heirloom has a mysterious origin, and the materials used to forge it are extremely rare. It's safe to say there's only one such axe in the world. Furthermore, ever since your grandfather got married and had children, he put this weapon away and stopped using it. This is a very important item for the Chen family."

Chen Xiner stamped her feet and said anxiously, "But Lin Feng saved your life, father! If it weren't for Lin Feng, our Chen family might have faced a greater crisis."

Chen Hongtao sighed. He knew his daughter was right, but it was too difficult for him to make this decision.

Just as Chen Hongtao was hesitating, Chen Xiner said firmly: "Father, if you don't agree, I will get it myself!"

Chen Hongtao looked at his daughter's determination and felt touched, but also felt extremely embarrassed.

In the end, unable to dissuade Chen Xiner, Chen Hongtao reluctantly agreed. "Well, if that's the case, then take out the family heirloom."

After the decision was made, Chen Xiangyu, the second elder of the Chen family, was ordered to take the axe and go to the City Lord's Mansion. Lin Feng, Chen Xiner, and Chen Xiangyu set out together and embarked on the road to the City Lord's Mansion.

Lin Feng's emotions were mixed along the way. He knew the axe's importance to the Chen family, but to save the Lin family's second elder, he had no choice. Chen Xin'er, on the other hand, seemed excited. She had full confidence in Lin Feng, believing he would be able to solve the problem at hand.

When they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord was already waiting at the door. Seeing them coming, a smile appeared on his face.

"You are finally here. Hurry up and take out the things for me to see." The city lord said impatiently.

Chen Xiangyu carefully took out the axe from his arms and handed it to the city lord. The city lord took the axe and examined it carefully, his eyes flashing with excitement.

"It's indeed a good axe!" The city lord exclaimed in admiration. He swung the axe and felt its power.

After confirming the authenticity of the information, the city lord immediately sent for the Hu family members. Soon, the Hu family members arrived at the city lord's residence. Leading the group was Hu Jingzhi, the patriarch of the Hu family, followed by a group of Hu family experts.

Hu Jingzhi saw the axe in the city lord's hand, and a hint of greed flashed in his eyes. But he suppressed his inner desire and bowed to the city lord.

"Lord City Lord, I wonder why you suddenly summoned us?" Hu Jingzhi said with a forced smile.

The city lord smiled slightly and said, "I invited you here today because I have an important matter to discuss with you."

Hu Jingzhi frowned, secretly guessing the city lord's intentions.

"You also know that Lin Feng needs the Nine Spirit Detoxification Grass to detoxify the second elder of the Lin family, and the Nine Spirit Detoxification Grass was just auctioned off by your Hu family a few days ago. Now Lin Feng has asked me to come forward, hoping that you can exchange with him." The city lord said slowly.

Hu Jingzhi burst into laughter upon hearing this. "Lord City Lord, are you kidding me? Our Hu family worked so hard to obtain this Nine Spirit Detoxification Herb. How could we possibly give it away so easily?"

The city lord's face darkened and he said, "Hu Jingzhi, don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit. Since I can invite you here, I have a way to make you agree."

Hu Jingzhi's heart trembled. He knew the city lord was powerful and dared not disobey his orders easily. But he was unwilling to give up the Nine Spirit Detoxification Grass just like that.

At this moment, Chen Xiangyu couldn't help but say, "Hu Jingzhi, your Hu family shouldn't go too far."

Hu Jingzhi glanced at Chen Xiangyu coldly and said, "Chen Xiangyu, our Hu family obtained the Nine Spirit Detoxification Grass. That's our own ability."

The two sides were deadlocked and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

At this time, Lin Feng stood up, took out a box from his arms, and said, "Master Hu, I have something here that may make you change your mind."

Hu Jingzhi looked at the box in Lin Feng's hand in confusion, wondering what he was doing.

Lin Feng opened the box and found ten detonators inside. Even a master could not stop them.

Hu Jingzhi and the Hu family members behind him were all surprised when they saw the ten detonators.

"What is this?" Hu Jingzhi asked.

Lin Feng smiled slightly and said, "This is a detonator I found in the ancient ruins. It is very powerful. You can try it."

As he spoke, Lin Feng took out a detonator from the box, walked to the distant wall, inserted the detonator into the wall, and then lit the fuse.

With a loud bang, a big hole like a gate was blown out in the wall.

Hu Jingzhi and the Hu family members behind him were all stunned when they saw this scene. They knew that the material of this wall was very strong, and even a full-strength attack from a master could not have such an effect.

The city lord was also shocked by this scene. He looked at Lin Feng with admiration in his eyes.

"Lin Feng, where did you get this thing?" asked the city lord.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "This is what I found when I was training in the ancient ruins. Most of the rest were given to the Chen family."

Hu Jingzhi's face turned very ugly. He knew that if Lin Feng had so many detonators, it would be a huge threat to the Hu family.

"Lin Feng, do you want to use these detonators to threaten us?" Hu Jingzhi said unwillingly.

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "I'm not threatening you. I just want to have a fair exchange with you. If you don't want to, then there's nothing I can do."

Hu Jingzhi was silent for a moment, and finally said, "Okay, we can exchange with you. But you must ensure that these detonators will not pose a threat to our Hu family."

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Don't worry about this. I won't use these detonators against you."

The two sides reached an agreement, and Lin Feng finally got the Nine Spirit Detoxification Grass. His heart was filled with joy.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord, and thank you, Master Hu." Lin Feng said gratefully.

The city lord waved his hand and said, "No need to thank me, this is what you deserve."
