Chapter 1189 - 1187: Come at Me Together

"But I see everyone present already doesn’t dare recklessly shout at Wang Zhan anymore, they don’t even dare to take the initiative to move Forward. What should we do like this?"

The man standing beside Jin City’s City Lord slightly furrowed his brows, and hurriedly followed up with these words.

Jin City’s City Lord just waved his hand. The corner of his mouth lifted in a cold smile as he spoke lightly, "Can’t you see it? Right now the arrow is already on the string and has to be loosed. Even if these people don’t plan to make a move, Wang Zhan won’t let them leave easily. He’ll still force them to attack!"

"So in the end, the result will naturally be both sides clashing, which is exactly the situation we want to see. But I imagine most people today will die here. Wang Zhan really is a tough piece of bone—if I don’t use some of my trump cards, I’m afraid that even now I wouldn’t be his match. Truly, a hero rises from youth."

The age gap between him and Wang Zhan was enormous. If Wang Zhan were given a bit more time to grow, he firmly believed Wang Zhan would absolutely be able to stand above him—that was an indisputable fact!

The man standing at his side was slightly in shock. This was the first time he’d heard the City Lord evaluate a young man like this!

That alone was enough to show just how terrifying Wang Zhan’s strength was!

And Jin City’s City Lord’s gaze had already fallen back on Wang Zhan once more. Obviously, he had no intention of continuing to waste words with the people around him, and was already waiting for an outcome!

In fact, he had already decided that if all the people present really joined forces and still couldn’t pose a threat to Wang Zhan, then he would immediately take action at that moment and launch a Thunder Strike against Wang Zhan, just to ensure that Wang Zhan absolutely could not leave here unscathed!

They had made ample preparations for today, so no matter what, they had to completely kill Wang Zhan!

If Wang Zhan survived here, things would become extremely hard to handle!

The man at his side slightly furrowed his brows, then spoke up again, "City Lord, since they’re still dragging their feet and not acting, why not let me go to that Tian Family brat’s side and knock him around properly, have the Tian Family people take the lead?"

"I think City Lord should understand, all these people are old foxes. They just don’t want to expend their own people. But the Tian Family is somewhat different from them. These people all come from Sects, while the Tian Family’s people are all officials, and they’re only using each other. So we can absolutely seize this chance and let the Tian Family people take the lead to consume Wang Zhan a bit. Once everyone sees the benefits, they should rush to attack."

After all, they’d already offended Wang Zhan. Sooner or later, today’s matter would spread. If they let Wang Zhan just walk away unscathed like this, there’d be no benefit for them at all. They might as well finish Wang Zhan here; that would make things much easier!

What’s more, no matter how things developed in the future, at the very least all of them could unite their forces and even stand up against the people Inside Tian Pavilion!

The City Lord at the side slightly narrowed his eyes. After hesitating for a moment, his fingers gently tapped his forehead a few times, then he directly nodded and spoke, "Your idea is fairly good. Anyway, no matter who makes the first move, the only thing I want is to see the final result develop exactly as I’ve predicted!"

"Since that’s the case, go speak to Young Master Tian Family now. Tell that brat to hurry up and have his people attack Wang Zhan. As long as everyone starts fighting, I won’t just sit back and watch!"

"If anything unexpected happens, I will definitely step out at the first moment to preside over the overall situation, and I absolutely will not let Wang Zhan leave like this!"

The man nodded, and his figure already shot off at high speed toward Young Master Tian Family’s position.

Inside the circle.

Wang Zhan’s gaze fell on Young Master Tian Family. He spoke lightly, "Since none of you intend to make a move, then answer one more question for me. Earlier, my subordinate was grievously injured, and I followed the clues to come to Gold City. Since all of you have gathered here now, you should know who it was that attacked my man, right?"

"I can put it this way: if you take the initiative to reveal the truth to me, or give me some leads, I absolutely won’t make things difficult for him!"

"And even if something happens in the future, I still won’t make things hard for the Sect he belongs to. That should be a pretty good deal, right?"

After hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up. Indeed, people here were numerous and imposing, but they still had a sliver of apprehension toward Wang Zhan. No one dared continue moving Forward, and no one dared to cross hands with Wang Zhan at this moment. Perhaps this was the deterrent force Wang Zhan brought them!

Wang Zhan didn’t rush to逼迫 them; instead, he patiently waited. He believed that as long as he gave these people some time, they would definitely weigh the pros and cons!

Moreover, among all the people present, everyone harbored their own ghosts. Each had their little schemes, hoping the others would first wear themselves out so they could step in later to reap the fisherman’s benefit!

But if everyone thought this way, then of course there would be some fence-sitters among them!

Just as Young Master Tian Family was about to speak, he saw a man already appear before him. At a glance, he recognized the man’s identity. After all, in these past few days he’d always been mixing with Jin City’s City Lord, so he was very familiar with the people around Jin City’s City Lord!

Seeing the man walk up to him, Young Master Tian Family finally spoke with a frown, "Why did you suddenly come over? Aren’t you afraid people will see through your identity? If they learn the City Lord is also nearby, things will become especially troublesome!"

The only reason the City Lord hadn’t stepped out to contact everyone was because he had his own thorough plan!

And in everyone’s eyes, the City Lord had always been in seclusion and naturally wouldn’t appear easily!

But now that the City Lord’s man had shown up here, the entire matter could easily be exposed. Then it would be a lot more trouble!

The man only shook his head and spoke lightly, "The only reason I came here is because I’m following the City Lord’s orders. And City Lord has already made up his mind—to kill Wang Zhan here today no matter what!"

"Since they don’t plan to act, you let the Tian Family people move quickly and form a mutual offensive and defensive situation against Wang Zhan. As long as your Tian Family people can gain a slight edge, I believe everyone present absolutely won’t easily let things go. They’ll definitely seize this chance to jointly slaughter Wang Zhan!"

"This is your one and only chance, so you have to cherish it!"

Young Master Tian Family at the side licked his lips and finally nodded, "Fine! Since that’s the case, I’ll do as you say. After all, I have to completely obey the City Lord now. Only then can I gain more benefits in the future!"

As he spoke, Young Master Tian Family directly waved his hand toward the people behind him and hurriedly shouted, "Since no one wants to take the lead, then let our Tian Family people go first!"

"All you Tian Family officials listen up: whoever can finish off Wang Zhan, I will reward him with endless elixirs and share a portion of the Tian Family’s wealth with him. That way, when you’re on the Star War Battlefield later, you’ll be able to walk sideways, utterly fearless!"

"There’s also one thing I haven’t told you. I’ve actually arranged an expert to stay here. If you truly can’t win, that mysterious expert will show himself at the first moment—and Wang Zhan is definitely not his match!"

These words weren’t just for the Tian Family people; they were also meant for everyone nearby!

Young Master Tian Family might be a spoiled wastrel, but he was also as meticulous as dust. Naturally, he could see that everyone had grown somewhat battle-shy, so he had to bolster their morale at this moment!

The arrow was already on the string and had to be loosed!

Besides, this entire alliance had been summoned by him. If it just scattered like this, then all of Wang Zhan’s fury would fall on the Tian Family and him. He’d only just become the Tian Family Head—how could he sit back and watch the Tian Family crumble?

The people behind Young Master Tian Family exchanged glances, then all nodded in unison. Wherever you go, under heavy rewards, there will always be brave men!

Their movements were extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, they’d already reached Wang Zhan. With one shared look, they struck at Wang Zhan together!

Though they cultivated different techniques, they had stayed in the Tian Family for many years, and their cooperation was already very familiar. Their combined strength naturally couldn’t be underestimated!

Seeing that they had already rushed up, the corner of Wang Zhan’s mouth lifted in a disdainful smile. Clearly, he didn’t put these people before him in his eyes at all!

There was even a hint of excitement in his eyes!

He swiftly raised both hands, and the air above erupted with peals of thunder and lightning. Strands of lightning instantly enveloped them all. This was the eerie terror of the Ten Thousand Lightning Formation!

Everyone was greatly shocked on the spot, but no matter what trump cards they used, they still couldn’t break this Ten Thousand Lightning Formation before them, and could only be trapped within the boundless lightning. What shocked them even more was that the force of this lightning was incredibly frightening, even comparable to Thunder Tribulation itself!

Yet Wang Zhan was so young. Even if he was the master of Sky Pavilion and had some trump cards in hand, how could he possibly be this powerful?

It seemed Wang Zhan was truly a man who defied the heavens!

Terrifying to such an extent!

But Wang Zhan paid them no mind. He continued to control the Ten Thousand Lightning Formation. Seeing them forced back step by step, the corner of his mouth curled in a cold smile as he hooked his finger toward the crowd. "You might as well come at me all together!"
