Chapter 384 Central City Yan Family

As he continued to go deeper into the central city, Jing Cangming discovered something that would never happen in the Four Continents.

At this moment, in front of Jing Cangming, there were several buildings floating in the air.

These buildings seem to belong to various aristocratic families and are of varying heights.

Jing Cangming was a little curious, so he picked up a passerby and stopped him.

"Hello uncle, may I ask what are these buildings in the sky?" Jing Cangming humbly and politely asked the middle-aged man he was holding.

The middle-aged man was about 1.8 meters tall, slightly shorter than Jing Cangming. He looked very decent in his gorgeous clothes. His long hair was combed back and his neatly trimmed beard added a touch of elegance to him.

The man stopped and didn't look like anything important.

He looked Jing Cangming up and down, and asked gently with a smile, "Child, are you an outsider?"

Jing Cangming also smiled and nodded, "Yes uncle, I just arrived in the central city today."

The uncle laughed, and then showed a slightly shocked expression, "Haha, young man, you are so capable at such a young age, you are really a son of genius."

Jing Cangming was a little surprised, because he just wanted to ask for directions, so he didn't even check the other party's level.

Jing Cangming continued humbly, "Uncle, you are too kind. I am just luckier."

Upon hearing this, the uncle looked at Jing Cangming with some admiration. It was rare for Jing Cangming to be so young and at such a high level, yet still be neither arrogant nor impatient.

“Haha, good boy, those are the noble families in the central city. Their status in the central city varies with their altitude. The higher they float, the higher their status in the central city,” the uncle said, pointing at the noble families floating in the sky.

Jing Cangming looked up at the sky and sighed in his heart. Compared with the Central City, it seemed that the four continents were all the wilderness of the Central City. This level was really immeasurable!

After a moment, Jing Cangming looked at the uncle, smiled and said, "Thank you, uncle~".

The uncle also laughed and said, "You're welcome, kid. You just came to the central city and haven't joined the family yet, right?"

"Join the family?" Jing Cangming was a little confused when he heard that.

The uncle nodded and said, "Yes, everyone who comes to the central city must join a family. Unless you are a student of the academy, you will not be able to take a single step in the central city."

Jing Cangming was a little surprised, then he thought of a question and asked, "Uncle, are these vendors also members of the family?"

The uncle nodded and said, "Yes, all of these vendors belong to affiliated clans of each family and are protected by the family, but they are not eligible to change their family surnames."

"Uncle, which family are you from?" Jing Cangming asked with a smile.

The uncle had nothing to hide, and immediately straightened his chest, "The Lei family in Central City!"

Zheng's voice was not loud, but neither humble nor arrogant, and it contained awe and majesty for the Lei family.

"Lei family?" Upon hearing this, Jing Cangming immediately thought of the young master of the Lei family who was standing in front of him when entering the city.

To be honest, because of this young master, he didn't have a very good opinion of aristocratic families, and this was even more so for the Lei family.

"Haha, what? Have you heard of it?" Uncle Lei looked at Jing Cangming and said.

Jing Cangming quickly shook his head and said, "Uncle, I just arrived, how could I have heard of it, haha".

Hearing this, the uncle also laughed and said, "Yeah, what do you think? Are you interested in joining the Lei family? Your talent will surely shine in the Lei family."

Jing Cangming frowned and did not agree blindly. Instead, he asked, "Uncle, I want to ask, do I need an invitation like yours to join the family?"

Uncle Lei laughed and said, "Of course not, look over there." Uncle Lei pointed to the huge building in the center.

"That is the center of the central city. The patriarchs of all the major families live together there, and these family heads also have a common leader. If you want to join a family, you have to apply there, or recruit directly like I did."

Hearing this, Jing Cangming swallowed his saliva, "Where do the patriarchs of the major families live? Who is the emperor of the central city?..."

The uncle of the Lei family said, "Silly child, there is no emperor in the Central City. The Central City only has a supreme leader, and the supreme leader is what I just said, the common leader of all family patriarchs."

Jing Cangming was stunned for a moment, then nodded and smiled, "Thank you Uncle Lei for your invitation. I would like to consider it again, is that ok?"

Uncle Lei was not angry because of Jing Cangming's decision. Instead, he smiled and said, "With your talent, you naturally have more choices. If you don't know where to go in the end, you can come to the Lei family to find me. My name is Lei Tianzong."

After saying that, the uncle from the Lei family did not stand there waiting for Jing Cangming's reply, but turned away.

"Lei Tianzong," Jing Cangming stood in place, muttering as he watched the uncle from the Lei family walking away.

Immediately afterwards, Jing Cangming saw that Lei Tianzong instantly turned into a beam of thunder and disappeared on the spot, flying towards a family very high in the sky.

Then Jing Cangming paused for a while and walked towards the center of the central city.

Jing Cangming wanted to know what kind of existence the Tu family where Tu Li was, the Zhong family where Zhong Yelin was, and the Yan family where the most mysterious Yan Yuxiao was were here.

If I have to join a family, I will definitely choose from these three families.

Although there were many people on the street, it did not seem crowded because the avenue was wide.

Along the way, the buildings became larger and brighter, and the heights of the families in the sky also began to gradually rise.

Overall, those aristocratic families floating in the sky are like stairs, from outside to inside, from bottom to top.

From this point of view, the Lei family doesn't seem to be ranked high in the central city...

However, Jing Cangming didn't pay much attention to these things. After all, there was no way he would join the Lei family.

To be honest, Jing Cangming just wanted to go in and see who this leader was and how to talk to him. It didn't seem to matter whether he joined the family or not.

Under the magnificent building, Jing Cangming looked up at it.

When you get closer, it is even more magnificent than it looked from a distance. The aura emanating from it alone makes people feel inexplicably pressured.

Standing at the gate which is more than ten meters high, people coming and going pass by me.

One can feel that all those who come in and out of here are Beast Emperors, and against this backdrop, this place is simply a holy city.

When I walked into the interior, there was no one blocking the door, and there were no guards guarding it.

Inside was a huge hall, almost empty but packed with people.

The interior is very spacious and there are people all around.

Looking into the distance, there seems to be a tall platform in the very center.

But because I was too far away, what I saw was very blurry.

There was no choice but to move forward towards the platform.

Just like on the street, it seems crowded, but because of its large area, you won’t bump into other people when walking.

The journey was smooth, and when we got closer, we found that there was indeed a huge platform.

There are stairs all around the platform, about thirty steps in total, making the platform look very high.

On the platform, there were four old men, sitting back to back, each facing one direction.

As I walked up, I saw that each old man had a glass table in front of him, with a lot of papers on it.

Jing Cangming walked up the stairs on the south side because it was the closest to him.

When the old man saw Jing Cangming, he asked enthusiastically, "Young man, are you here to join the family?"

Jing Cangming nodded and said, "Yes, senior."

"Haha, you are already the Beast Emperor at such a young age, your future is limitless," the old man said, taking out a parchment scroll and handing it to Jing Cangming.

Jing Cangming took it with both hands and looked at it carefully.

The old man said, "This records the information of all the noble families in the central city. Come to me after you make your choice."

Jing Cangming nodded, bowed to the old man and said, "Thank you, senior."

Then Jing Cangming found a place and started reading the parchment scroll.

The old man looked at Jing Cangming and nodded with satisfaction, "This kid, haha."

Jing Cangming looked at the information on the parchment scroll carefully, recording the rankings of each family from top to bottom.

The first place is the Mo family, the second place is the Sun family, and the third place is the Long family.

Fourth place, fifth place...

When it came to the thirteenth place, Jing Cangming's gaze paused for a moment.

It clearly says on it that the Tu family is a family of ferocious beasts.

Jing Cangming couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Wow, Tu Li's family is so powerful and ranks so high."

Then he continued searching and found that the thirty-sixth person was from the Zhong family, which made Jing Cangming stop and look again.

But until now, Jing Cangming has not seen any information from the Yan family.

So Jing Cangming sped up his viewing speed, until the end, among a total of 217 families, Jing Cangming did not find any information about the Yan family.

This made Jing Cangming a little puzzled. Yan Yuxiao was from the Central City. She told him this herself, so it couldn't be wrong. Besides, she had no reason to lie to him.

With doubts in mind, Jing Cangming returned to the old man again.

At this time, the old man had just finished selecting a family for a Beast Emperor. Seeing that it was Jing Cangming who came, a smile spread across his face. "Why? You made your choice so quickly?"

Jing Cangming shook his head, "No senior yet, I want to ask, is there a Yan family in our central city?"

Hearing this, the four old men all turned around and looked at Jing Cangming, as if Jing Cangming had said something very extraordinary.

The old man nodded, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, "Yes, there is, but how do you know? There is no record of the Yan family on this parchment scroll?"

Jing Cangming scratched his head and said with a smile, "Haha, that's right, senior. My girlfriend is from Yan's family in Central City."
