Let's not talk about anything else, just the divine attire, official cap, Official Seal, and other Divine Treasures worn by the extraterrestrial Divine Spirits alone are enough to traps Wu Jie with no ascend to heaven and no entry to earth.
Therefore, when the news of Wu Jie was announced, it immediately caused a commotion on the scene.
The lowest Realm present are at the Early Divine Spirit Realm (Wu Yan and Cui Yan had recently made a breakthrough, stepping into the Early Divine Spirit Realm from the Peak Perfection of the Yin God Realm), how could they not be clear about the terror of the extraterrestrial Divine Spirits?
"Grand Leader, what is the purpose of this extraterrestrial Land God's descent?"
Atop a Small Hill to the west, a middle-aged man bearing the Earth God Rank asked.
This middle-aged man was none other than Zhao Xu, one of the six Grand Elders of the Great Tang Ruins, at the same Realm as Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying, in the Early Divine Spirit Realm.
During the recent Battle initiated by Curse Gate, Zhao Xu and another Elder, Liu Chen, were patrolling outside and couldn't participate in time.
As a result, during the Battle initiated by Curse Gate, the remaining four Grand Elders, including Xu Qianwu and Fang Ying who had recovered from their injuries after the fight, all suffered injuries, while Zhao Xu and Liu Chen happened to avoid them.
Even so, due to several Battles that occurred previously, the Divine Spirits Rank of both Zhao Xu and Liu Chen were also damaged, just not as severely as those injured in this Battle.
Despite this, the Earth God Rank around Elder Zhao Xu was still enveloped in darkness and Death Qi, with the aura of someone hanging by a thread.
Grand Leader Wu Jie glanced at Zhao Xu and responded indifferently, "According to Messenger Zhao, this extraterrestrial Land God left a message in Hehui Village, with a name engraved on the walls of many households."
Many people at the scene were moved by this— the extraterrestrial Land God specifically leaving a name in the village undoubtedly came for this person.
Who exactly was this name?
Who had such significance to attract the attention of extraterrestrial Divine Spirits?
Zhao Xu pressed on with his question, "Grand Leader, who is this person?"
"Ahem!"
Grand Leader Wu Jie coughed before announcing, "It's Xiao Mu."
Hearing the name Xiao Mu, many bigwigs on the scene had peculiar expressions.
This Xiao Mu was too prone to causing trouble, how did he manage to provoke extraterrestrial Divine Spirits this time?
"Xiao Mu, who is Xiao Mu?"
Grand Elder Zhao Xu furrowed his brows, the Elder who had always patrolled outside had not heard of Xiao Mu's name and felt unfamiliar.
"Heh heh!"
A discordant Sneer came from Mr. Cui Yan's direction as he responded with a laugh, "Grand Elder Zhao, Xiao Mu is just a regular member of task group one."
"A regular member?" Zhao Xu frowned again.
A mere regular member of the task group causing such a huge issue? Even riling up the extraterrestrial Land God, it was inconceivable to him.
Cui Yan nodded, continuing to sneer, "This Xiao Mu, he truly knows how to stir up trouble. Leader Wu, as the leader of task group one, you should really restrain your subordinates."
"Otherwise, if they all cause trouble like Xiao Mu, our Great Tang Ruins will be doomed sooner or later."
Wu Yan retorted with displeasure, "The affairs of my task group one are for us to solve, there's no need for Cui Yan to interfere, alright?"
The high and mighty Second Leader Zhou Pudu suddenly spoke up, "With the demise of Task Group Two Leader Qin Duan, Task Group Two cannot be without management. I suggest that Cui Yan take over as the leader of Task Group Two, what does the Grand Leader think?"
With that, he looked towards Grand Leader Wu Jie.
Grand Leader Wu Jie had no objections and nodded his approval, "Cui Yan has stepped into the Divine Spirit Realm and also possesses the Earth God Rank, he is more than capable of taking over as the leader of Task Group Two, I agree with him taking the position."
"Thank you, Grand Leader, for your approval! And thank you, Second Leader, for the recommendation!"
Cui Yan was overjoyed, thanking both the Grand Leader and Second Leader.
Then, he once again looked towards Wu Yan, "Leader Wu, now that I'm a task group leader just like you, there are some things I can't help but say. Xiao Mu, as a member of the task group with merely the cultivation of the Yin God Realm, has repeatedly caused trouble for the group and for the Great Tang Ruins. Especially this time, he almost dragged the Great Tang Ruins into a hopeless situation. If Leader Wu doesn't manage him, don't blame me for having to step in."
Wu Yan, who had a quick temper, coldly said, "Cui Yan, try sticking your hands into the affairs of my task group one."
Cui Yan gave a cold laugh, "You really think I wouldn't dare?"
"Presumptuous! I've long found you unbearable!"
Wu Yan, who was quick to anger, roared out, swinging his right hand as the divine light of the Five Elements shot directly towards Cui Yan.
"Ridiculous, Wu Yan, you overestimate yourself. You without a Divine Spirits Rank, how could you be my opponent?"
Cui Yan sneered again, and the golden light erupted from the Kitchen God Rank above his head, pressing down directly at Wu Yan.
Splat!
The golden light of the Kitchen God Rank crashed onto Wu Yan's head, causing his body to sink, and, involuntarily, he knelt down on one knee.
His Realm was the same as Cui Yan's, and his strength was even slightly superior. However, it was unfortunate that he did not possess a Divine Spirit Rank; facing the suppression of Cui Yan's Divine Spirit Rank and caught off-guard, he was ambushed.
"Hehe, no need for such courtesy!"
Cui Yan's smile was laden with thick sarcasm.
"You, Cui Yan, you dare to use the Kitchen God Rank to suppress me?" Wu Yan roared in anger, having not anticipated Cui Yan using the Kitchen God Rank to attack him, resulting in public humiliation.
Both being Task Group Leaders of the same Realm, Cui Yan actually used the Kitchen God Rank to force him to kneel, such a humiliation was too much for him to bear.
"So what if I suppress you? Wu Yan, I never fought with you before because I was merely humoring you, it's laughable that you actually thought I was afraid of you."
Cui Yan's face was filled with pride, the unexpected suppression of Wu Yan with the Kitchen God Rank gave him immense satisfaction.
"Enough!"
The Grand Leader Wu Jie's face darkened as he loomed over both Cui Yan and Wu Yan, shouting at them.
Without doing anything else, just a casual shout from the Grand Leader broke Cui Yan's Kitchen God Rank, rendering its suppression on Wu Yan ineffective.
"Yes, Grand Leader, I was reckless just now. I ask the three leaders to forgive me!"
Fearing the unfathomable strength of the Grand Leader, Cui Yan immediately came out with the pleasantries.
"You~"
Wu Yan was still seething with anger, embarrassed in front of so many powerful figures by Cui Yan's suppression and forced kneeling; the humiliation was too great to bear. With a wave of his hand, he released the divine light of the Five Elements again, ready to fight to the death with Cui Yan.
"Wu Yan, enough!"
Grand Leader Wu Jie turned and shouted at Wu Yan, and with a slight pressure of the Thunder God Position, Wu Yan immediately took a seat on the Small Hill.
The difference in strength between the two was too great, Wu Yan had no ability to resist.
Unlike Cui Yan's previous suppression, Grand Leader Wu Jie was merely preventing Wu Yan and Cui Yan from fighting, without any intention of humiliating Wu Yan.
Cui Yan took the opportunity to look back at Wu Yan, the contempt in his eyes extremely intense.
Wu Yan, furious, glared fiercely back at Cui Yan.
The voice of Grand Leader Wu Jie came from the Small Hill, bringing the topic back, "Indeed, the Celestial Town God who infiltrated this time came for Xiao Mu."
Grand Elder Zhao Xu asked in surprise, "Grand Leader, is this Xiao Mu very strong?"
"Strong, not really."
Grand Leader Wu Jie shook his head, "Xiao Mu is merely at Mid Yin God Realm."
"Mid Yin God Realm, and he's the target of Celestial Divine Spirits?" Grand Elder Zhao Xu found it incredible.
That someone from merely the Mid Yin God Realm would become the target of Celestial Divine Spirits was simply too inconceivable.
In fact, it wasn't just Zhao Xu who felt this way. Many of the elders at the Ruins shared the same incredulity, finding it odd that the mighty Celestial Town God would infiltrate just for someone at the Mid Yin God Realm.
Xu Qianwu couldn't help but speak, "What does this Celestial Town God intend to do?"
Grand Leader Wu Jie looked toward the emissary, Zhao Guantian.
A piece of white paper suddenly flew out of Zhao Guantian's hand, with characters written on it.
The surface of the white paper vaguely exuded the aura of Divine Spirits; as all present were powerful beings, they instantly sensed that this aura belonged to the Town God.
But they heard Zhao Guantian continue, "After the event, the Celestial Town God sent a letter to me at the Shang Dynasty Ruins, demanding us to hand over Xiao Mu within one month, otherwise, they will not hesitate to wage war."
"What? Hand over Xiao Mu?"
"Or else it will come to war?"
The complexions of many powerhouses changed; the aim of the enigmatic Celestial Town God was to demand Xiao Mu, even at the threat of imminent war.
