Chapter 235: Surprised? Unexpected?
As for the Natal God of Wealth side, it was comparatively simple and crude.
To be fair, the God of Wealth’s recent improvement was truly quite significant. Apart from the fourth Life Mark that still hadn’t condensed, the Five Dimensions level and panel combat power had long surpassed ordinary Gold Scrolls.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Raising the Steel Whip high in hand, within the area covered by Heavenly Prison Burning Degree, thunderclouds surged, and dense bolts of thunder struck down.
The high-tier Mechanical Monsters on the field were directly electrocuted to the point of ecstasy and agony.
The situation was instantly brought under control.
Du Yifan and the Defense Team members saw everything, unable to hide their shock and worship.
“By the way, in this situation, can it still be repaired?” Wu Xian looked seriously at Master Song.
“It can, but it requires a massive amount of resources and time,” Master Song sighed helplessly. “Moreover, it must be handled personally by my Old Master.”
Hearing this, Wu Xian couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as it can be repaired, money is secondary.
Afterward, the Defense Team and the military arrived one after another, quickly sealing off the scene.
Not long after, the Association’s Evil Extermination Squad, led by Zhang Mazi, also arrived at the scene. Under the activation of the Human Scroll Painting, the modified warriors led by Zhang Mazi were like gods of war possessing their bodies, directly clashing head-on with a Mechanical Monster using their flesh and blood.
Among them, Zhang Mazi was the most outrageous, kicking out with one foot and instantly shattering half the body of a Mechanical Elite Monster, leaving Wu Xian stunned.
“Why are you all here too?” Wu Xian asked in surprise.
“In case there are Evil God Followers causing trouble behind the scenes,” Zhang Mazi explained with a light smile. “Although Mechanical Wasteland rarely has Evil God Followers appear, better safe than sorry.”
Wu Xian understood.
“By the way, Venerable One, a young lady from Shenglin Dojo came this morning, acting all high and mighty like she’s one in a million,” Zhang Mazi couldn’t help but complain. “She doesn’t even respect President Cui, and started bossing people around as soon as she arrived, like the Association is her own home.”
“Is that so?” Wu Xian was secretly surprised.
He didn’t expect Shenglin Dojo to send the “Imperial Envoy” over so quickly.
Afterward, the Evil Extermination Squad and the military elites charged into the Dimensional Rift together, while the Defense Team was responsible for guarding the Yaoyang City side.
Wu Xian didn’t go with them, after all, the club still had a pile of things to do.
Only after confirming the situation was under control did he leave with peace of mind.
As for that Imperial Envoy from Shenglin Dojo, although it piqued his curiosity, he didn’t want to join in on the fun.
…
Arriving at the club side.
Meeting Master Sister’s gaze head-on, the little girl acted as if nothing had happened, like nothing had occurred at all.
But Wu Xian could clearly feel that Master Sister’s tone when speaking to him was obviously different from before.
“Good Disciple, you came at the perfect time. I heard from the Alliance side that our Domain Scroll Painting successfully broke through the Hero Tower 30th Floor one hour ago, becoming the first ever Domain Scroll Painting to be included in the 30th floor and above.” Xue Lingling said excitedly.
“Is that so?” Wu Xian had expected this. “Any rewards?”
“Of course,” Xue Lingling said noncommittally. “Roughly speaking, the Alliance side is willing to work for us for free, and will prioritize elevating【Underworld+Taoshi Mountain】 as the highest priority goal.”
Hearing this, Wu Xian was overjoyed.
Having the big shot Spirit Tamers from Tianfeng Province Alliance work for him— just thinking about it felt thrilling.
To put it this way, even those top-tier Scroll Painters from various Dojo noble families might not have such treatment.
Afterward, he discussed the club’s promotion plan with Master Sister.
Planning to have the current several Gold Tier Players participate in Otherworld Expedition Missions to earn Club Points.
Coming to the League Device side, researching Otherworld Expedition Missions with Master Sister—basically, they were tasks like going to a certain Otherworld, subduing specific monsters, acquiring specific materials, or conducting certain surveys.
Among them, survey missions were the simplest.
“Where’s Second Brother? Hasn’t he come back?” During the process of selecting Expedition Missions, Wu Xian couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
Though a short parting is better than a new marriage, it’s been several days already.
Does Second Brother have such good stamina?
Or after fusing with Insectoid Race power, does he have special enhancements in that aspect?
“I’ll call and ask.” Xue Lingling immediately called Xue Zhengying. Not long after, she hung up with a strange expression. “He said he’ll come over with that woman in a bit.”
“Ah?” Wu Xian said in surprise. “Does this mean he’s keeping Second Sister-in-law?”
“Seems like it.”
As they spoke, Xue Qingyang’s figure emerged from the League Device teleportation platform. Looking at his disheveled and dirt-covered appearance, it was obvious he had lost the match.
However, before Xue Lingling could console him, Xue Qingyang came rushing over in a fluster. “Damn, guess what I just ran into?”
“What?” Wu Xian and Xue Lingling were baffled.
“Emperor Mummy, Gold Scroll Emperor Mummy!” Xue Qingyang said with shock and doubt. “Much stronger than the previous mummies!”
“War Heaven Club has started trying hard too?” Xue Lingling said in surprise. “But hasn’t Bai Shiqi left?”
“It’s not War Heaven Club, it’s【Dolan Club】 from the provincial city. The key opponent was a veteran player—completely unbeatable.” Xue Qingyang said with a mournful face.
“Dolan Club?” Wu Xian and Xue Lingling looked at each other in surprise.
They immediately pulled out their phones to search for information on that【Dolan Club】.
The next second, Bai Shiqi’s video call popped up on the phone.
Answering the call in astonishment, Bai Shiqi’s familiar young master appearance appeared on the screen, shaking a wine glass, eyes full of amusement. “Brother Wu, long time no see. How about it~ surprised or not, unexpected or not?”
“…”
Wu Xian and the other two weren’t fools; they instantly understood.
“What, not welcome?” Bai Shiqi said with a hint of resentment. “I thought Brother Wu would welcome me to your competition zone.”
“Your Excellency must be sick, addicted to getting beaten, right?” Wu Xian said helplessly.
Bai Shiqi smirked. “Brother Wu is strong, but your Underworld Club has just started after all. Getting beaten is impossible—at least not within one or two years.
Want to have a clash sometime? I think that Special Grade Task in this month’s Expedition Mission Hall looks good.
To be honest, my Scroll Painting has long since changed beyond recognition.”
“No interest.” Wu Xian irritably hung up the call and turned to Xue Lingling, who was checking information nearby. “What’s the deal with this Dolan Club?”
Special Grade Expeditions were for top clubs to compete over; they didn’t have that capability yet.
“It has some history, ranking fluctuating, always hovering in the mid-tier.”
Looking at Dolan Club’s current scale and lineup, he couldn’t help but feel emotional.
Having family background is great—starting out directly in charge of this level of Gold Medal Club, with over forty Gold Tier Players on the roster alone, many of them veterans.
In contrast, they had to start from scratch and develop slowly.
Fortunately, their development was going pretty fast now.
“By the way, what’s the deal with this month’s Special Grade Task?” Wu Xian curiously went to check the Expedition Mission Hall.
The pinned red text mission was the Special Grade Task that top clubs vied for each month.
【Endless Sea Region-Special Grade Expedition】
Expedition Target: Deep Sea Demon Whale（Lord-Level 42）
Rewards: 1000 Club Points. Endless Sea Teleportation Gate（for clubs that already have it can be converted to 1000 Hero Points）
“Level 42 Ocean System Lord?”
Wu Xian thought thoughtfully. To say he wasn’t tempted would be fake—after all, that was a thousand Club Points.
Taking it would directly promote them to Gold Medal Club.
The key was that【Endless Sea Teleportation Gate】.
Yaoyang City had no Dimensional Invasions from Endless Sea Region. For the Four Seas Dragon Palace system to develop later, they would inevitably need to open the Endless Sea Region space channel.
