”Those who disobey his orders will be executed!”
”You dare to do that!” Chen Mu hollered. He was about to leap into the air when Lin Tianhao sent his hand sweeping across the air. The cultivation of the cultivators who had been guarding the walls immediately erupted, and many of them whipped out their Dharmic Artifacts. If Chen Mu and the other two mayors dared to charge out, they would have no qualms squashing them.
At that moment, the auras of the various Core Formation realm cultivators locked onto the Core Formation realm cultivators inside Chen Mu and his gang's autonomous zones. Their cultivations clashed. Even Wang Baole ended his seclusion. With a wave of his hand, he observed everything through the new city's array formation. Anticipation shone in his eyes.
There was tension in the air. A fight could break out anytime. Chen Mu's face was stiff and brimming with anger. It appeared like he was about to strike. It was then that a figure dashed towards them from the distant walls. It appeared instantly. It was Li Wan'er.
”Enough!” Li Wan'er appeared, anger clear on her face. She shouted, but her shout wasn't directed only at Lin Tianhao, it was also directed at Chen Mu and his gang.
Lin Tianhao was reluctant to step down, but Li Wan'er was the Deputy City Lord, after all. He lowered his head and took a few steps back. Chen Mu, upon seeing Li Wan'er's arrival, seemed to have rediscovered his courage. He was about to leap into the air when Li Wan'er turned and glared at him.
Her eyes were colored with displeasure and exasperation, which caused Chen Mu to freeze. The expression on his face darkened as well.
”Mayor Chen and the rest, please return. I will handle this matter!”
”City Lord Li, City Lord Wang's actions have severely harmed the autonomous zones' normal operations!” Chen Mu was filled with agitation. He felt that if Li Wan'er had made a stronger stance in this incident, Wang Baole would definitely back down. From how he saw it, with the support of himself and the other two mayors, Li Wan'er could arm wrestle Wang Baole for power. Even though she might not gain a complete win, she might still be able to wrestle some degree of power from Wang Baole.
”This matter…” Li Wan'er frowned. She was about to speak when suddenly, whooshing sounds came from the distant skies. Li Wan'er lifted her head. Soon, everyone, including numerous cultivators from the new city saw a dozen gigantic transport cruisers heading their way from a distance.
The dozen cruisers had the symbol of the Five Generation Sky Clan on them. They were clearly delivering the latest batch of resources. Prior to the completion of the city walls, the cruisers would make a trip once every two weeks. They always landed inside the autonomous zones. Besides resources and materials for city construction, they also contained large quantities of resources and materials for cultivation.
At present, the cruisers did what they normally did and gradually approached the new city. Before they could head towards the autonomous zones though, a gigantic glowing array formation descended from the skies and spread out, blanketing the dozen cruisers. It stopped the cruisers outside the autonomous zones and trapped them within the array formation. The cruisers couldn't move forward, nor could they leave.
The scene alarmed Chen Mu and his gang. The Five Generation Sky Clan cultivators inside the cruisers were equally stunned. Before they could react, Kong Dao, who was responsible for clearing the air space and in charge of the new city's military, brought his people and leaped straight into the sky, appearing before the dozen cruisers.
”In accordance with the City Lord's orders, new catacombs have appeared. Military rule will be enforced. All cruisers are prohibited from entering and leaving the zones. Anyone who disobeys the orders will be shot down!”
After saying that, he wasted no time with unnecessary words. He immediately ordered for the cruisers to be taken in. They were forced to land at a designated landing ground. The dozen cruisers were surrounded by the military, trapped and restrained by the power of the array formation. To prevent any mishaps, Wang Baole, who was sitting inside his office, activated his control over the array formation. The cruisers could instantly feel the threat emanating from the array formation. After a short moment of silence, they didn't try to resist.
After they got out of their cruisers, they realized that Kong Dao and his army were going to forcibly confiscate the resources they had transported over. A perfected Foundation Establishment realm elder from the Five Generation Sky Clan who had been leading the transport cruisers immediately flew into a rage.
”Who dares to touch the resources of the Five Generation Sky Clan? Is it Wang Baole? Ask him to see me!”
As soon as this elder spoke, the array formation over the entire city rumbled. From afar, it seemed as if countless bolts of lightning were criss-crossing in the air. They formed an indistinct face. From the looks of it, the face was Wang Baole.
The face formed through the array formation. When it appeared, it exuded an overpowering presence. The force of its presence weighed down on the raging elder instantly. The elder, who had been furious a moment earlier, was immediately alarmed.
As emotions flashed across his face, through the aid of the city's array formation, Wang Baole's voice rang in the skies.
”You wanted to see me?”
