Not far from Flame City, there was a secret realm filled with sycamore trees. Each of these sycamores was hundreds of feet tall, with thick and strong branches. The fiery red leaves clustered together, forming balls of flame.
Within this little-known secret realm, resided the Fire Crow Clan. The Fire Crow Clan belonged to the demon race, but because they inherited a trace of the Golden Crow's bloodline, they were naturally fond of sycamore trees and looked down on other races.
Three years ago, the Fire Crow Clan's old ancestor broke through the shackles of his realm and achieved the position of a Saint. This further amplified the Fire Crow Clan's arrogance, and they disregarded other races even more.
At this moment, at the entrance of the secret realm, Gu Changsheng, along with Feng Chen and Wu Liang, arrived at the Fire Crow Clan's habitat. He did not hide himself, so as soon as they appeared, they were discovered by two members of the Fire Crow Clan who were guarding the entrance.
"Stop, who are you?"
The two guards shouted loudly.
Gu Changsheng frowned. Seeing this, Feng Chen immediately said, "Boss, don't do anything. Let me handle it."
As he spoke, Feng Chen moved forward aggressively, taking the initiative. He attacked the two gatekeepers of the Fire Crow Clan with a palm strike from his left hand and a clenched fist from his right hand simultaneously.
"How dare you attack us in our Fire Crow Clan's territory! You're courting death!"
The two Fire Crow Clan members were furious. A ball of crimson flame rose behind them, and the flame, like a firebird, crashed towards Feng Chen.
"Bang!"
With a loud noise, a figure flew backward.
Seeing this, Gu Changsheng shook his head helplessly and reached out to catch Feng Chen.
At this moment, most of Feng Chen's clothes were burnt, his front was black, and there was a faint smell of burnt flesh in the air.
"Ouch, how can they be so strong?" Feng Chen said in disbelief. The cultivation of the two gatekeepers was a little weaker than him. Both were at the second level of Nirvana Realm, while he was at the third level of Nirvana Realm and was about to break through to the fourth level. Originally, he wanted to show off in front of his boss so that his boss would look at him with new eyes, but now he had shown off, and he probably would be looked at with new eyes, but the result might be the opposite of what he wanted.
"Benefactor, do you want to see where this place is?" The Taoist Wu Liang next to him tried his best to hold back his laughter, not letting himself laugh. The boss didn't laugh, so he definitely couldn't laugh.
Feng Chen looked around and found tall sycamore trees everywhere. He thought of the legendary phoenixes, Golden Crows, and other immortal birds and divine beasts, but obviously, there couldn't be such transcendent beings here. He immediately thought of the Fire Crow Clan again.
He thought of the various rumors about the Fire Crow Clan, the biggest of course being the rumor that the Fire Crow Clan was a descendant of the Golden Crow. It was rumored that the Fire Crow Clan had a trace of the Golden Crow's bloodline in their bodies, which made their talent much stronger than ordinary people.
Feng Chen was also self-aware. His talent was average. Don't look at how young he was, but he was almost a hundred years old. It took him decades to cultivate to the third level of Nirvana Realm, and he was even chased and killed by those younger generations some time ago. This was enough to prove that his cultivation talent was very average.
Now, facing two Fire Crow Clan members whose cultivation was a little weaker than him, he was defeated by their joint attack. It seemed... not unacceptable!
"You mere humans dare to come to our Fire Crow Clan's holy land to cause trouble. You're simply courting death," one of the guards looked at Feng Chen with a sneer, his face full of disdain. He was mocking Feng Chen for overestimating himself.
Seeing this, Feng Chen curled his lips and said to Gu Changsheng, "Boss, you still have to take action."
"Boss?"
"You are the boss of Changsheng Tavern?"
After hearing Feng Chen's address to Gu Changsheng, the two Fire Crow Clan members immediately realized something.
Seeing this, Feng Chen said triumphantly, "Hmph, now you know to be afraid, right? If you don't want to die, quickly kowtow and admit your mistakes, and I'll say a few good words for you in front of my boss and let him spare your lives."
Feng Chen thought that the other party was afraid after hearing Gu Changsheng's name, so he began to act like a bully.
Who knew that after confirming Gu Changsheng's identity, they would immediately attack.
"Avenge the young master!"
"Kill!"
The two attacked Gu Changsheng like they were crazy.
"Damn it!"
Feng Chen was startled by their courage and quickly took a few steps back to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
"Bang!" "Bang!"
Before the two could get close to Gu Changsheng, they turned into blood mist in mid-air.
Seeing Gu Changsheng easily resolve the two, Feng Chen had somehow changed into a new set of clothes, but his face was still so black.
Feng Chen came to Gu Changsheng with a dark face and asked, "Boss, do you have a grudge against the Fire Crow Clan?"
Gu Changsheng shook his head and said, "Correctly speaking, you have a grudge against the Fire Crow Clan."
"How is that possible? I haven't even met anyone from the Fire Crow Clan. How could I have a grudge against them?" Feng Chen shook his head repeatedly, thinking that Gu Changsheng was joking.
At this time, Wu Liang walked up to him and said, "Benefactor, the boss is right. You do have a grudge against the Fire Crow Clan, and it's a blood feud."
"Huh?" Feng Chen was confused. He had never offended the Fire Crow Clan. Moreover, he had been an orphan since he was a child. Could it be that the Fire Crow Clan killed his parents?
As soon as he thought of this, Feng Chen was angry. He said to Gu Changsheng, "Please, boss, stand up for me. The Fire Crow Clan actually killed my parents..."
"What did you say to him before?" Gu Changsheng looked at Wu Liang.
Wu Liang was also dumbfounded and said, "Nothing."
"Wuwuwu, the Fire Crow Clan is really not human... they are not human. They cruelly killed my innocent parents. Please, boss, avenge me," Feng Chen cried and shouted.
"Shut up!"
Gu Changsheng shouted coldly, and Feng Chen immediately shut up. He stopped crying on his face, and the tears were gone.
He could control his emotions so freely. If he was born on Earth, he would definitely be able to thrive in the entertainment industry, and he would even be able to become an emperor.
Gu Changsheng shook his head. This personality was too similar.
"Think about what you did this afternoon?" Gu Changsheng said.
This afternoon?
Feng Chen was stunned and carefully recalled. He only became an employee of Changsheng Tavern this afternoon. After becoming an employee, he began to do various chores. That's right, this afternoon, a unlucky person wanted to cause trouble and was blown up by his punch.
"That's not right. If that person was the young master of the Fire Crow Clan, how could he be so easily blown up by my punch?" Feng Chen still didn't want to believe it.
"That's because the boss sealed his cultivation. Otherwise, with his eighth level of Nirvana Realm cultivation, coupled with the fact that he is a genius, he could kill you with one finger," Wu Liang said.
"So that's how it is!" Feng Chen nodded, but soon realized that Wu Liang's words were not right.
Wu Liang was fat, so he hated others calling him fat. Feng Chen knew that his talent was average, but he also hated others calling him trash, even if it was a euphemism.
"Damn it, you fat bastard, are you scolding me?" Feng Chen immediately retorted after realizing it.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, how dare you say that this poor Taoist is fat? Do you believe that this poor Taoist will refine you to death in a furnace?" Taoist Wu Liang was also angry.
"Come on, let's see if you dare." Feng Chen quickly hid behind Gu Changsheng.
"Boss, don't interfere. Today is a private matter between the two of us."
"You want the boss to not interfere, so he won't interfere? Are you ordering the boss? Damn it, you fat bastard, how dare you order the boss?"
Wu Liang's face changed when he heard this. Just as he was about to explain, an anomaly came from the depths of the sycamore forest.
"Who dares to trespass into my Fire Crow Holy Land and kill my Fire Crow Clan members?"
