348: Walking into a trap?

Chapter 348: Inviting a Wolf into the House?

"So what do we do now? Just wait?" Wu Xian asked, puzzled.

"Relax, everything is already prepared," Cui Wenxuan said confidently. "Later, you young people can do whatever you want. We old guys, due to some pressure from above, always have to be more polite."

"Do whatever we want?" Wu Xian's expression was strange. "Can we win?"

Xue Lingling couldn't help but chime in, "That's right, Old Cui, don't end up selling us out."

"If we really wanted to sell you out, would we need to go through all this trouble?" Cui Wenxuan teased.

Mayor Chen Shilong, on the other hand, looked worried. "I don't know if Yaoyang City can withstand this wave."

Upon hearing this, Cui Wenxuan also fell into worry.

The situation in Yaoyang City was clearly a hidden danger and something he had not expected.

"You don't have to worry about this. I should be able to stabilize Yaoyang City," Wu Xian said.

"Really?" Chen Shilong's eyes lit up. "Then there will be no more worries."

Wu Xian asked seriously, "How strong are the Upper Realm people?"

"They're not very powerful figures," Cui Wenxuan said.

Wu Xian looked around, puzzled. "Where are Second Brother and Second Sister-in-law? Where are they?"

"Second Sister-in-law said it's not convenient for her to show up or act for now. It won't be too late for her to act once the real fight begins."

Wu Xian understood, then waited patiently.

Soon after, Cui Wenxuan's expression shifted slightly, and his eyes narrowed. "They're here!"

Everyone present looked towards the distance.

On the other side of the Mysterious Abyss Dimensional Gate, several blurred figures slowly emerged from the Dimensional Gate and flew towards the Alliance.

In the middle, a middle-aged man with a strange Aura was seated on a 'carriage,' like some kind of scroll vehicle, arranged like an ancient emperor's Dragon chariot, full of pomp.

The main point was that it wasn't horses pulling it, but dozens of Divine Dogs exuding a powerful Aura.

Wang Zhi's Snow Mastiff God was also among them.

However, that Snow Mastiff God exuded a somewhat strange Aura, clearly not just a simple scroll painting spirit, but more like Wang Zhi himself.

More than a dozen Divine Dogs pulled the chariot, clearing the way, majestic and imposing, with a powerful Aura.

On both sides of the dog chariot, several men of extraordinary temperament followed. One of them was Yang Chi, the current Governor of Tianfeng Province. The others, judging by their attire and temperament, should be the heads of the military, Alliance, and association in Tianfeng Province.

Soon after, the dog chariot slowly hovered above the Alliance square.

The man on the 'Dragon chariot' slowly stood up, looking down as if at a group of ants, seemingly disgusted as he covered his nose and mouth. "What a filthy place. To think such a dirty place exists, how inauspicious.

Little Yang, what value does a place like this have? It should be scrapped."

"You are right," Governor Yang respectfully replied, speaking with righteous indignation, clearly acting like a lackey. "I will immediately arrange for people to handle it."

The man nodded in approval upon hearing this, his gaze sweeping over the crowd below.

The Snow Mastiff God in front of the dog chariot seemed to understand, its eyes filled with resentment and hatred, barking fiercely towards Wu Xian.

"Is this the boy this lord specifically asked for?" the man asked with interest.

The president of the provincial Alliance quickly asked Cui Wenxuan below, "Chairman Cui?"

"Reporting to your excellency, this young man is Wu Xian."

Cui Wenxuan responded unhurriedly and secretly gave Wu Xian a wink.

The man nodded knowingly and looked at Wu Xian. "Release your Divine Dog scroll and let this lord see it."

At this moment, Xue Lingling was already thoroughly disgusted by the Upper Realm man's behavior. If Xue Zhengheng hadn't stopped her, she would have probably rushed up already.

Wu Xian was a bit confused about the situation.

If they were going to fight, why not just start? Why put on such a show?

He looked around at Cui Wenxuan, Chen Shilong, and Governor Yang, then raised an eyebrow and looked at the Upper Realm man. "Who do you think you are?"

At these words, the entire place fell silent.

"What did this lord hear?" The Upper Realm man was clearly stunned for a moment.

Since when did a Lower Realm ant dare to speak to the heavens like that?

"How dare you be rude! This is an envoy sent by the heavens!" Governor Yang said righteously, unleashing his level ten spiritual power Aura to pressure Wu Xian.

However, from Wu Xian's perspective, Governor Yang's spiritual power Aura was somewhat all bark and no bite.

"Please calm your anger, Upper God," Governor Yang then turned to the Upper Realm man. "Young people, after all, have no concept of the greatness of the heavens. Perhaps you could show him the great power of the heavens? Let him gain some insight?"

"That's true," the Upper Realm man mused. "However, this lord has important matters to attend to this time and cannot waste too much time here."

As he spoke, a powerful, formless Aura surged forth. The power of heaven and earth also seemed to subtly align with this Aura, secretly alarming the various groups present.

Except for Cui Wenxuan and a few other top experts, everyone else simply couldn't withstand this Aura.

Only Wu Xian, due to his protective Qi, could forcefully resist this pressure.

It must be said, it was somewhat similar to the True God Divine Might of the Azure Tree King and the Abyssal Demon Lord. He just couldn't understand the specific principle behind these Upper Realm people's 'Divine Might.'

"Hmm?" The Upper Realm man frowned, seemingly sensing something. "This place is not an Upper Realm Domain?"

"Your Excellency, the Upper God, may not know, but Yaoyang City is an old, independently governed city," Governor Yang's eyes flashed with a hint of light as he truthfully reported.

"No wonder it's so filthy," the Upper Realm man snorted lightly. "So it's one of those broken places that should have been scrapped long ago."

Although his Divine Power was somewhat restricted in this broken place, it was of no great consequence.

What truly interested him, however, was Wu Xian below.

"A bit interesting. To be able to withstand this lord's Divine Might?" The Upper Realm man's eyes gleamed. "This scroll's power is good. This lord wants it."

"Want your mother!" Wu Xian continued to play his role of acting recklessly. "Just a bunch of good-for-nothing gluttons who live a life of luxury in the Upper Realm, do they really deserve to put on airs in front of this young master?

And you, a bunch of lackeys from various forces, can't you have some backbone?"

Wu Xian's indiscriminate greeting caused Governor Yang and the other bigwigs' faces to stiffen slightly.

"Heh heh, quite the temper," the Upper Realm man chuckled. "Unfortunately, this lord has important matters to attend to. I'll capture you first, and discipline you later. This lord can feel that you will be an excellent and obedient dog."

With that, shimmering, colorful veins appeared on his arm, like embedded LED light strips. The key was the Law Aura emanating from those 'light strips,' as if it were the Law of heaven and earth itself.

Buzz~!

The Upper Realm man slightly raised his hand, and a terrifying Aura emanated from his palm.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth quickly formed a scroll, condensing into a giant golden hand, carrying an irresistible Aura, and grabbing towards Wu Xian.

Even with his protective Qi, Wu Xian couldn't help but feel a little panicked in the face of that terrifying golden hand.

This was clearly not a power he could handle.

Bang!

At the critical moment, a blur shot through the air, like a muffled thunderclap exploding in the sky above Yaoyang City.

The golden hand condensed by the Upper Realm man was instantly pierced by that blur, shattering into a sky full of spiritual light.

"Hmm?!" The Upper Realm man's face instantly changed. "What kind of ant dares to interfere with the affairs of the heavens?!"

The next second, another sound of something breaking through the air echoed through heaven and earth. A crossbow bolt streaked across the sky, hitting the Upper Realm man directly in the face.

The Upper Realm man on the dog chariot was sent flying backward, his expression shocked and uncertain. A crack in an energy shield vaguely appeared on his forehead, and his entire face became distorted with rage. "Damn it, is this that crossbow bolt from back then...?"
