Chapter 234: The Wrath Of Gods

Chapter 234: The Wrath Of Gods

On the secret network, there was intense discussion among the special circles of financial dynasties and major organizations, unable to calm down after the recent events.

"Old Wang just chopped Sun Rongting!" Zhou Cheng exclaimed, utterly shocked. Wang Xuan had previously killed Sun Chengquan and Sun Chenghai, and Chen Yongjie had killed Sun Chengming, all key figures of the Sun family. But none compared to Sun Rongting, a member of the decision-making layer and one of the most powerful core figures of the Sun family.

"The man's gone mad, acting recklessly. Even Sun Rongting was beheaded by his flying sword. How will the Sun family respond now?" Even the influential middle-aged members of various houses were astounded.

This incident was significant; a core power player of a super financial dynasty killed for the first time in two decades. The older members of the financial dynasties and major organizations were unsettled by this turn of events. While they were pleased to see a super financial dynasty suffer a blow, the ease with which a key decision-maker was slain warranted caution.

In contrast, the younger generation was exhilarated, aspiring to cultivation and longing to be close to Transcendents. The idea of sword flying and shattering a mothership in this technologically advanced era thrilled them.

"Old Qian, I heard you're close to Wang Xuan. Could you introduce me to him?" someone asked Qian An, believing he had a good relationship with Wang Xuan.

"Zhong Qing, I want to be Wang Xuan's disciple. What? You have sisters eyeing Wang Xuan, wanting to be my stepmother? No way! They have to get through me first. Once I've made progress in my cultivation, I'm planning a teacher-student romance!"This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

"Hey, Zhong Qing, don't hang up. Actually, is it you... who wants to be my Master?"

Entering the city, Wang Xuan felt no regret for slaying Sun Rongting. The act indeed caused a massive stir in the relevant circles, like a stormy sea. He knew it was time to moderate his approach, to avoid alarming all financial dynasties and putting them on guard against him.

Yet, without displaying his thunderous might and iron-fisted methods, who knew what might have happened next? Balancing the demeanor of a compassionate Bodhisattva with the ferocity of a wrathful Vajra, he had shown his forceful side. Now, it was time to observe the reactions and tactics of various parties.

In the night sky, several warships, like dark specters, rushed from the horizon. The Sun family's warships, summoned from their base, finally arrived. The ominous ships, casting shadows like dark clouds, obscured the starlight and moonlight, signaling the deployment of large-scale warships.

The Sun family, driven to fury by the successive losses of key figures, couldn't bear the humiliation. They had intended to kill the Transcendents but found themselves repeatedly wounded instead.

The secret network was abuzz, with detectors from all sides remaining, keenly observing. Satellite networks also monitored the arrival of five massive Sun family warships, leaving everyone stunned.

In the distance, smaller warships formed an escort formation, showcasing the Sun family's rage. The scale was enough for a full-fledged war.

Wang Xuan took a cold shower, changed into a white, soft training outfit, and played with the yellow gourd, calmly observing the fleet in the sky. He doubted the Sun family would dare

"The Transcendent material has thinned, it needs replenishment," Wang Xuan mused, looking towards the Song family's direction. The ancient lamp had played a pivotal role in the battle, and without it, bringing down the warship would have been impossible. He held great expectations for the lamp; only the first layer of its runes had been activated, yet it already demonstrated such formidable power.

As Wang Xuan gazed towards the Song family, they too were discussing him. "Wang Xuan lives right next to us. This must be deliberate. We've become his protective charm. The Sun family better restrain themselves from firing directly."

The Zhong siblings shared Wang Xuan's message on the secret network. He informed the various families that he was not fond of fighting and acted only out of necessity. He expressed more interest in health cultivation and offered his assistance to the elders of various families if they wished.

That night, Qian An received numerous calls. Subsequently, the Song family's phone lines were nearly overwhelmed with inquiries about Song Yun's condition. Knowing that the elder was on the brink of death, many were curious about his sudden improvement.

The next morning, after consultations by renowned doctors sent by various families, it was confirmed that Song Yun's spirits were high and he could live at least another half a year. "Yes, Wang Xuan said this is just the initial effect. He claims with more treatments, my grandfather could live over five more years," Song Wentao reluctantly informed inquirers. He couldn't hide this information; otherwise, Wang Xuan himself would reveal it, and any deception would offend all parties involved.

This news unsettled many, especially since most of the current heads of these financial dynasties were elderly. Who wouldn't want to live a few more years?

Wang Xuan's simple message had the potential to change many people's perceptions of him and their forthcoming decisions. Even those with intense hostility towards him might hesitate.

Zhong Qing nodded, acknowledging Wang Xuan's foresight in mitigating the crisis. "Can it work?" Zhong Cheng inquired. Zhong Qing suggested observing their second great-uncle's actions, saying, "If he's hesitating, selecting scriptures, and picking out ancient artifacts that are likely useless, it'll give us an idea."

Shortly after, Zhong Cheng returned, surprised. "Our second great-uncle is agitated, apparently not content with being outlived by our great-grandfather. He's really picking out scriptures!" He added that the chosen scriptures and artifacts were of low quality, indicating the elders' reluctance to part with valuable items even for life extension.

Zhong Qing shook her head, "They're cautious, but their foresight isn't as sharp as Wang Xuan's. Cooperating with him might inadvertently lead them to give away true treasures."

That day, the financial dynasties and major institutions of New World were restless. The elder leaders of this exclusive circle were all stirred up by the potential of extending their lives through Wang Xuan's medical skills.

Wang Xuan remained calm after his display of strength, waiting for the reactions of various families. He had already shown his iron fist, now it was time for a softer approach. However, he was ready to be forceful again if necessary.

Afternoon came, and the Sun family declared through the secret network their relentless stance against Wang Xuan and Chen Yongjie, labeling them as threats that must be eradicated for the safety of the financial dynasties and major institutions. They were determined to continue the battle.

The Song family, living just a street away, politely requested Wang Xuan to further assist in healing their elder, Song Yun. Wang Xuan was upfront about the costs involved, especially given the current tense situation. The Song family hinted that Wang Xuan's presence in the city protected him from the Sun family's attacks, suggesting indirect protection.

Wang Xuan, however, was not swayed by this and left the Song family, indicating that his stay in a city was usually short, and it wouldn't be easy to invite him back later.

Meanwhile, the Sun family's continued hostility only fueled Wang Xuan's readiness to confront them again if needed.

In the evening, Wang Xuan discreetly left the city in a hovering vehicle provided by the authorities. His discussions with Chen Yongjie the previous night and Guan Lin's connections with governmental agencies had prepared him for this moment. He had also begun to understand the potential of the extraordinary treasures he possessed.

As Wang Xuan left the city, despite his low profile, his departure was immediately detected and monitored. Once outside the city, he used the small yellow gourd to shield himself from surveillance and destroyed any nearby detectors with his psychic abilities. The hovering vehicle, with Wang Xuan and the gourd, disappeared into the horizon, leaving a lasting impression on all who witnessed his departure.
