Wu Yan was efficient, and within just a few seconds, he had handed over all five Divine Treasures to his Netherlord avatar.
However, at that moment, the various Elders watching were still not satisfied.
Zhu Yun expressed his dissatisfaction but also showed a lingering desire as he said to Wu Yan, "Leader Wu, don't be so stingy, take out the Divine Treasures and let everyone have a look again."
Stingy?
Wu Yan glared at Elder Zhu Yun. What if they got damaged?
Of course, Divine Treasures cannot be damaged by mere looking, but he, who particularly cherished the Divine Treasures, dared not take the risk. Even if they couldn't be damaged, what if someone took his Divine Treasures and didn't return them?
He diplomatically said, "Elder Zhu, if you want to see the Divine Treasures, let's wait until the battle of Azure Sky City is over. When you are free, come find me at the Great Tang Ruins, and I'll let you see them to your heart's content."
He had a good plan; there were many people here and many hands might lead to mishaps. Back at the Great Tang Ruins, in his own home, it wouldn't matter if he watched others look at them.
"Stingy!"
Zhu Yun stared at Wu Yan intently. He immediately guessed Wu Yan's thoughts—was he not just worried about the treasures being damaged?
But Divine Treasures of the Divine Spirit Level, could anyone present really damage them?
Though he thought this, Zhu Yun could also understand Wu Yan's perspective. If he had suddenly received such valuable set of treasures, he too would likely worry about them being damaged.
Elder Zhu, extremely curious about the power of a complete set of Netherlord treasures, couldn't help but suggest, "Leader Wu, you are already a Netherlord, and you have a complete set of Divine Treasures, why not demonstrate the power of a complete Netherlord Spirit Tablet to everyone? I believe, everyone present would love to see just how powerful a complete Netherlord Spirit Tablet really is!"
Demonstrate the power of the Netherlord Spirit Tablet?
Wu Yan was intrigued by the idea.
He was worried about the Divine Treasures being damaged and reluctant to let others see them, but demonstrating their power was an appealing idea.
How powerful were the Divine Treasures, and how strong was the complete Netherlord Spirit Tablet? He was more curious than anyone else.
He eagerly agreed, "Sure. But it's difficult to demonstrate the power of the Spirit Tablet alone. Which one of you will cooperate with me for a demonstration battle, so I can show everyone the power of the Netherlord Spirit Tablet?"
After saying this, his gaze turned towards Zhu Yun.
I shouldn't have suggested it!
Zhu Yun cursed inwardly and quickly avoided Wu Yan's gaze; battling Wu Yan right now was simply asking for trouble, and he did not want to be that person.
He was the leader sent from the Ruins dynasty, and if by any chance Wu Yan trounced him, where would he put his face?
"Elder Zhao!"
Seeing Zhu Yun avoid his gaze, Wu Yan knew the other did not want to fight and, feeling disappointed, turned his hopeful gaze towards Zhao Xu.
Zhu Yun didn't want to be humiliated—did Zhao Xu really want to? The elder, like Zhu Yun, cared about his reputation, so he chuckled dryly and looked at Mei Jun, "Elder Mei, why don't you do it?"
"Old Zhao, that's not very fair of you; I'm still injured. Why not Elder Chen try it?"
Mei Jun quickly declined, wanting to avoid humiliation just like the other two elders, and then turned his eyes towards Chen Fushi.
Elder Chen Fushi was no fool either; he chuckled and looked at Qu Jingyu, "Elder Qu, please take the stage, I and Elder Mei are both injured."
Then everyone turned their gaze towards Qu Jingyu.
Elder Qu Jingyu felt a surge of nervousness, cursing inwardly while diplomatically declining, "I'm not strong enough, I might not be able to reveal the true power of the complete Netherlord Spirit Tablet. Perhaps Elder Li should do it!"
With that, everyone's gaze shifted towards Li Qi.
Do they think I'm foolish?
Li Qi inwardly cursed, but his face displayed a cold refusal, "This elder has no interest in such a meaningless contest!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately stared down at Li Qi, challenging him mentally; if you're scared, just say you're scared. What's this rubbish about having no interest? Are you just afraid of being humiliated by Wu Yan?
After a round of courteous refusals, no elder was willing to step forward to cooperate with Wu Yan to test the power of the complete Netherlord Spirit Tablet, leaving Wu Yan utterly bored and Zhu Yun unable to further suggest demonstrating the power of the complete Netherlord Spirit Tablet.
"Elder Zhu, Elder Zhao, all elders, in these few days I was away, how has the situation with the Extraterrestrial Evil Beings evolved? What kind of experts have they sent to attack Azure Sky City?"
Xiao Mu saw that no one was focusing on the Netherlord treasures on Wu Yan anymore and began to inquire about the battle situation.
"Xiao Mu, I didn't expect you to still care about the battle at Azure Sky City, hmm, commendable attitude!"
Zhu Yun praised him, then responded, "In these few days, the extraterrestrials launched three attacks in total, sending Divine Spirits in the later stages every time. These Divine Spirits in the later stages, whether from the Life and Death Sect or the Five Elements Sect, each wielded Spirit Tablets."
"The weakest was the first attack, with a total of three later-stage Divine Spirits. Each subsequent attack grew stronger, the second with four, and the third with five later-stage Divine Spirits."
"As the force behind the extraterrestrial attacks grew stronger, our strength in defending Azure Sky City remains unchanged, making it increasingly difficult to resist and the injuries from each battle more severe."
"Had you not returned early, whether we could have withstood a fourth attack is questionable."
"Oh!"
Xiao Mu listened carefully to Zhu Yun's complaints, thought deeply, and then felt even more puzzled as he looked at Zhu Yun, "Elder Zhu, don't you find the situation rather strange?"
"The strength of the extraterrestrials is clearly superior to ours. Why don't they launch a total offensive all at once, but instead slightly enhance their strength in waves?"
"Isn't that a bit odd?"
Zhu Yun clearly hadn't grasped the severity of the issue and speculated, "Maybe the people from the extraterrestrials hadn't all arrived initially."
