Chapter 1134 - 1132: Full-Scale Search

After everyone sat down, Wang Zhan’s gaze fell upon the people present. After scanning everyone, he slowly spoke: "I believe everyone knows the reason I’ve gathered you here."

"Now that the matters concerning the City Lord of Ten Thousand Sword City have been completely resolved, it is high time for us to carefully search within the Thunder Domain and see if we can find the barrier that Flowing Light Venerable mentioned years ago, and then quickly locate the Absolute Heaven’s Sword."

"This is also the purpose of our visit to the Thunder Domain this time, so I hope everyone will join forces with me. What are your thoughts?"

Wang Zhan knew very well in his heart that everyone was on his side, so regardless of the decisions he made, everyone would certainly not retreat easily and would unconditionally follow his arrangements.

After exchanging glances, everyone nodded in agreement.

The Hexagonal Golden Snake was the first to speak: "But we currently have a very important issue that needs to be resolved. We don’t yet know the true location of the Absolute Heaven’s Sword, and although we’ve been in the Thunder Domain for some time, we haven’t noticed any anomalies here. So this is quite a troubling matter."

"Let’s announce this in Ten Thousand Sword City and ask everyone to help us search to see if there’s anything unusual in this area. We need to find the Absolute Heaven’s Sword as quickly as possible so as not to waste too much time here. I’ve heard many legends about the Thunder Domain and many experts reside here as well. Given all of this, let’s handle our affairs quickly so that we can leave as soon as possible."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The Hexagonal Golden Snake is the most powerful among them, so naturally, they need to unconditionally follow his lead.

Seeing that no one had objections, Wang Zhan smiled in satisfaction and directly said: "Alright, let’s follow the Hexagonal Golden Snake’s plan and resolve these matters as swiftly as possible."

Everyone nodded in agreement without saying much more.

After everyone left, Wang Zhan summoned a few protectors from Ten Thousand Sword City.

They anxiously entered the City Lord’s Mansion, and the protector who had previously clashed with Wang Zhan lowered his head, not daring to look at Wang Zhan directly. His breathing even became much more hurried. He clenched his teeth tightly and lowered his head to avoid Wang Zhan’s gaze as much as possible to avoid drawing attention and prevent Wang Zhan from suddenly striking.

One should know their capabilities are far inferior to the City Lord of Ten Thousand Sword City, and they are not even a match for Wang Zhan. If they were to make a move now, there would be no chance of survival for them.

Additionally, the presence of so many experts around Wang Zhan was the most intimidating aspect. If they really angered Wang Zhan, the consequences would naturally be unimaginable.

Wang Zhan, however, did not pay them any heed. He had long forgotten the past incidents, nor was he a petty person. After narrowing his eyes slightly, he began to speak slowly: "Everyone, I’ve summoned you today because I need your help with something."

"Mr. Wang, just speak directly, there’s no need for you to be so courteous with us. Your matters are our matters, and we will complete them unconditionally!"

One of the protectors hurriedly spoke up.

The other protectors nodded in agreement and voiced their support.

The attitude was indeed consistent.

Wang Zhan smiled contentedly, narrowed his eyes, and spoke slowly: "Since that’s the case, I won’t stand on ceremony with you. After all, I don’t have many people in the Thunder Domain, so I’ll need everyone to spread out and help me look for any ruins or barriers nearby that could be linked to Flowing Light Venerable."

In an instant, everyone’s face turned grim, and they exchanged glances with each other, looking uncertain.

Wang Zhan noticed their expressions and immediately asked: "Have you thought of something? Or do you know something?"

One of them responded directly: "Mr. Wang, we’ve heard about Flowing Light Venerable, but there is a rule in the Thunder Domain. Since Flowing Light Venerable once appeared here, nobody speaks lightly of him. Everyone wants to find the treasure he left behind here, so people like us dare not meddle for fear of causing trouble for ourselves..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint smile playing on his lips. After lightly tapping his fingers on the table, he spoke again: "Don’t worry, you have backing now, and you should be aware of the strength of the people around me. Although I am the core, their power far exceeds mine. With us supporting you, what do you need to worry about?"

The group exchanged looks and reluctantly nodded.

But the fact is, Wang Zhan’s strength is undeniable, and they are indeed no match for him. They also witnessed the power of the Hexagonal Golden Snake, who even swiftly dispatched the City Lord of Ten Thousand Sword City, proving the might of their group.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Zhan approached the protector again and spoke: "I just heard you mention that Flowing Light Venerable lived in the Thunder Domain and left behind some treasure. Is this true?"

Flowing Light Venerable guided Wang Zhan to the Thunder Domain to find the Absolute Heaven’s Sword, but the Thunder Domain residents seemed aware of its existence. Could this mean it’s not a secret?

The protector quickly nodded and said: "Flowing Light Venerable’s matters are indeed not a secret; we have known everything for a long time, yet no one knows where his treasure truly lies. Although many have sought this treasure over the years, none have found any clues, so we aren’t clear on the details."

"But these are all just legends. No one knows if it’s true. But you, Mr. Wang, have come all this way to search for Flowing Light Venerable’s treasure, so there must be some truth to it."

Wang Zhan nodded and spoke slowly: "Indeed, I have met Flowing Light Venerable. Although he has long left this world, I obtained Poseidon’s Trident in which he lodged his final shred of soul, through which I learned of this and came to the Thunder Domain."

Everyone nodded in unison, and one person spoke in shock: "I’ve been to the sea domain and heard about the Trident; even the proudest of the Dragon Clan couldn’t take Poseidon’s Trident, yet you’re merely human and hold it in your hand, which speaks to your formidable strength!"

"In the future, we would be honored to stand by your side as your loyal aides. Wherever you go, we will unconditionally stand by you and fight alongside you!"

Wang Zhan shook his head and calmly said: "First handle the tasks I’ve assigned, and we can discuss other matters in the future. I’m not here to waste time either; if you perform well this time, I’ll consider keeping you with me and may even take you out of the Thunder Domain someday."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Following Wang Zhan truly is a beneficial thing for them, and it’s always cooler under a big tree. With Wang Zhan around, they have little to worry about.

Wang Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly, seeing that no one had moved, and impatience spread across his face as he said: "What are you waiting for? Hurry and gather information about the Absolute Heaven’s Sword, but proceed in secret to avoid detection."

This matter may not be a secret in the Thunder Domain, but it’s possible not everyone knows. Wang Zhan does not want to create unnecessary attention. If the Absolute Heaven’s Sword is obtained, he’d surely become the target of public criticism, as when he acquired Poseidon’s Trident.

After all, both the Absolute Heaven’s Sword and Poseidon’s Trident are divine weapons in this world.

No one dared hesitate further, and they promptly left.

As they departed, the Sword Spirit approached, smiling as he looked at Wang Zhan and the direction they left. Then he asked slowly: "These folks are just a bunch of fence-sitters. Are you really planning to keep them at your side?"

Wang Zhan shook his head, a cold smile on his lips, "Do you think that’s possible?"
