Chapter 192: Good Dog!
On the other hand, Huang Lili was inevitably a bit surprised after learning Hu Yanfei’s name.
“Hu Yanfei? The Hu Yan from Hu Yan City?”
Hu Yanfei neither confirmed nor denied it.
“No wonder he holds three Gold Scrolls.” Huang Lili nodded with a tsk, “Are you sure you won’t come develop with our Underworld Club?”
“Let me give it serious consideration.” Hu Yanfei said thoughtfully, as if there was some unspoken difficulty.
After some pleasantries, Hu Yanfei solemnly took his leave and was the first to enter the key Tower for “Ascension” promotion.
Wu Xian couldn’t help but look curiously at Huang Lili: “This Huyan Family isn’t simple?”
“Naturally,” Huang Lili nodded. “They say Hu Yan City is the Huyan Family’s Hu Yan City, not the Hu Yan City of its people. The Huyan Family holds absolute power in Hu Yan City, controlling all its information and profits.”
“So ruthless?” Wu Xian was secretly shocked. “Isn’t that a total monopoly oligarchy? Won’t the people revolt?”
“Not at all. In fact, the people of Hu Yan City live very comfortably, with policies and welfare even better than in the provincial capital Dongfeng City.” Huang Lili smiled. “I know a few friends from Hu Yan City, and they have no complaints about the Huyan Family—instead, they support it wholeheartedly.”
Hearing this, Wu Xian was a bit confused. “Is the population very small?”
“Exactly,” Huang Lili said. “Hu Yan City is the youngest city in our Tianfeng Province, not even two hundred years since its founding, so its population naturally can’t compare to those old cities.”
“A new city, huh?” Wu Xian realized.
If it’s a new city with a smaller population, high welfare makes sense.
But high welfare must be built on high profits and a strong economy, so the Huyan Family is definitely not a bunch of good-for-nothings—absolutely a very capable family.
Then, he entered the Tower with Huang Lili and bathed in the blue beam for “Ascension”.
He had wanted to stay quiet and check the situation on【Hero Tower】 layer one, but unfortunately, he was teleported back just a few seconds after arriving on layer one.
Inside the Underworld Club, Xue Lingling and Xue Zhengying had already returned from their promotions ahead of time.
They were now giving pointers and education to their big nephew Xue Qingyang, who had failed his promotion.
“Failed?” Wu Xian stepped forward to inquire.
“Yeah, he was killed by a monster halfway through,” Xue Lingling sighed helplessly. “But that’s understandable—he’s only Tier 4 Spiritual Power and not very proficient with Aya Ghost Emperor yet. Take it slow.”
The Underworld Club had only been established not long ago, and having four Gold Tier Players was already impressive.
The growth of members and players always takes time.
After some celebrations afterward, Xue Lingling returned to the president’s seat, handling the club’s daily affairs while also starting exploration related to Domain Scroll Paintings.
“By the way, good disciple, do you have any Domain Scroll Painting concepts? If so, try to hurry it up—this is very important for our future development.”
“Mm.” Wu Xian nodded to show he understood.
For the club to promote to Gold Medal Club, having enough Gold Tier Players wasn’t sufficient.
They also needed to establish an outpost of their own in some Otherworld, and the subsequent operations and development of a Gold Medal Club revolved around the Otherworld Outpost, while also promoting the city’s development.
However, just as Wu Xian was about to return to his small villa in the North Street District, an unexpected group of guests arrived at the club.
…
Tianfeng Province, provincial capital Dongfeng City.
Inside the Divine Dog Club.
The Hound Team was completely wiped out, with over twenty Gold Scroll Hounds destroyed—this was undoubtedly a huge blow and loss to the entire club.
President Wang, who learned the news, rushed over immediately, his face extremely grim.
“What? So many people were completely wiped out by three people?” President Wang’s face turned iron-blue. “Are you all trash?”
“Strictly speaking, it was two and a half people—one kid was basically useless.” A player nearby added.
“The main thing is those two were too strong—we couldn’t block them at all!”
“…” President Wang gnashed his teeth. “It was just a challenge match—how strong could they be?”
Good grief, the losses from this wave of challenge matches were almost equivalent to several high-level Otherworld expedition missions.
“President, you wouldn’t know—those two’s Divine Dog and Divine Wolf were too powerful. Our hounds were no match at all, not even given a chance to escape.”
“Hm?” President Wang’s expression froze. “What did you just say? Divine Dog? Divine Wolf?”
“Exactly, probably terrifying existences on the same level as your【Snow Mastiff God】.”
“Same tier as my Snow Mastiff God?” President Wang grew even more surprised.
Then, several players successively pulled out some blurry phone recordings.
President Wang grew more shocked the more he watched, excitement gradually emerging in his eyes. “Good dogs—truly two good dogs!”
Weren’t these exactly the “talent” their Divine Dog Club needed most?
However, when he saw Wu Xian’s figure in the video, his expression instantly stiffened.
“Damn it, why is it that detestable kid again?”
President Wang’s face flickered between dark and light, not knowing what he was thinking.
…
Yaoyang City, Underworld Club.
Several alliance big shots, at the warm invitation of Xue Zhengying and his sister, sat in the club’s reception hall.
Wu Xian then realized that these few terrifyingly powerful figures before him were the top leaders of the current Tianfeng Province Spirit Tamer Alliance.
All of them had Level Nine or Level Ten Spiritual Power, and the auras they exuded were completely different from the tamers in his impressions.
“How come you brothers have time to visit our Yaoyang City?” Xue Zhengying teased.
“We’re all old acquaintances—why ask when you know?” The lead provincial alliance vice president Jiang Chenglei squinted and smiled. “Others might not see it, but us old brothers can get a rough idea.”
“I see,” Xue Zhengying pretended to be troubled. “As you all know, our little club has just started—where would we get so many resources?”
Jiang Chenglei waved his hand with a smile. “Relax, we’ve come with sincerity. Just list out the materials and costs needed for the Gold Scrolls for us, and you won’t have to worry about the rest.”
“I wonder which Gold Scroll the seniors are interested in?” Xue Lingling couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“We’re all interested,” Jiang Chenglei smiled. “We discussed it on the way—five people, each picks one, pull it up first and see.”
Hearing this, Wu Xian and Xue Lingling couldn’t help but secretly rejoice.
After all, alliance big shots were all high-quality players verified by the league and time, with their own strength right there.
“We understand the rules,” Jiang Chenglei and the others exchanged smiles and each took out their sincerity. “Your club will need this kind of materials for establishing an outpost next.”
The moment they saw those few Domain Materials, Wu Xian and Xue Lingling’s eyes lit up.
“Yes, yes,” Xue Lingling was already impatient. “Seniors, you’re really sending charcoal in the snowy weather!”
Then, the five big shots successively stated their desired Gold Scrolls and received the materials lists for them from the two.
Wu Xian and Xue Lingling also got their hands on those rare Domain Materials as wished.
Natal God of Wealth’s Aura of Wealth surged sharply— in a word: huge profit!
“Speaking of which, it seems Yaoyang City hasn’t set up an alliance branch yet,” Jiang Chenglei pondered. “Later, we’ll arrange some manpower over, negotiate with your mayor, and after setting up the branch, it can save you a lot of trouble.”
“That would be great.” Xue Lingling said happily.
“Small matter,” Jiang Chenglei waved with a smile. “If we manage to break through Hero Tower twenty layers later, there will be additional heavy thanks.”
Afterward, Jiang Chenglei and the others chatted and reminisced with Xue Zhengying for a bit before taking their leave.
