Mythical Scroll Artist: Starting with the God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming

Chapter 282 The Evil Extermination Plan
"Pure distortion, pure destruction?" Wu Xian was only half-understanding.

Xiao Dizi nodded and said, "They use distortion and pollution as nourishment, so they are naturally not anything respectable. Space, laws, cognition, and everything else will be polluted and eroded by them."

Wu Xian understood. "I get it. Cancer cells."

"What are cancer cells?" Xiao Dizi asked, puzzled.

"It's not important," Wu Xian joked, changing the subject. "Did you find out any valuable information?"

Xiao Dizi hesitated and said, "The other side should also have noticed that our temple is causing them considerable trouble."

"Anything else?" Wu Xian pressed.

“Then there are some of their plans, which we have already guessed,” Xiao Dizi said. “They want to establish an evil realm in Yaoyang City. As for the specific methods, I don’t know. We also don’t understand the power of the evil god.”

Wu Xian nodded thoughtfully, then tentatively asked, "Is it possible to get across?"

“Probably not,” Xiao Dizi shook his head, “but if you want to see it, I can help you.”

As it spoke, the Qilin dog gently scratched the ground with its paw, causing a soft light to ripple.

The area around the City God Temple was as if it had been covered by a desolate filter, and the original scene gradually blurred, presenting a strange mirage-like scene.

Upon closer inspection, it resembles a vast underground space, or rather, an underground world.

The rows of pitch-black "pillars" intersect among them, and there is no trace of any "humans" or even monsters.

The dark, humus-covered ground seemed to writhe, occasionally spewing out yellow smoke.

The yellow smoke resembled some kind of living creature, seemingly swaying or wriggling.

"Is this what they call the evil realm?" Wu Xian asked curiously.

“The evil realm has no fixed appearance. The evil realms I have seen are all different,” Xiao Dizi shook his head. “However, judging from the outline of the landform that has not been completely eroded on the edge, it looks like the insect realm where Sister Insect is located.”

"The Insect Realm?" Wu Xian's eyes flickered slightly. "It seems I should make a trip to the Insect Realm my priority."

On one hand, they have the help of Queen Kunyouniang, and on the other hand, they can also collect a few Zerg ley lines of mineral resources.

Another point is that this evil influence has infiltrated the club area, so it should be dealt with first.

Shortly after, Mayor Chen Shilong sent a message.

Wu Xian then rushed to the association and met with three big shots, Chen Shilong, Cui Wenxuan, and Wang Fengnian, at the temporary command center for the extermination of evil.

Cui Wenxuan represented the association, while Mr. Wang Fengnian represented the military.

The military, government, CPPCC, and civilians converged.

Cui Wenxuan and Wang Fengnian looked visibly uncomfortable, while Chen Shilong appeared embarrassed.

"Why didn't you say something so important sooner?" Cui Wenxuan's face was grim. "No wonder I always felt something was off about the mayor. It turns out that those evil scroll painters were all secretly planted nearby by you."

“The Evil God Scroll Master is alright,” Wang Fengnian frowned, “The main problem is the situation in Yaoyang City. How could the mayor have kept such a major matter a secret?”

Chen Shilong gave an awkward wry smile, "Isn't this because we were afraid that the two of you would abandon Yaoyang City and leave in advance?"

"..." Cui Wenxuan couldn't help but glare and puff out his beard, "Whom does Your Excellency the Mayor look down on?"

"No, no," Chen Shilong quickly explained.

Grandpa Wang Fengnian said, "It's understandable that you're worried about the association, but it's a bit disheartening that you're worried about our military."

"This..." Chen Shilong sighed helplessly, "Your background is too powerful, I really can't afford to gamble."

"Alright, alright," Wang Fengnian waved his hand knowingly, "Xiao Wu is here too, let's get straight to the point. Please rest assured, Mayor, the higher military may not send reinforcements, but the officers and soldiers of Yaoyang City will never abandon the city and flee."

Cui Wenxuan also stated directly: "It's the same on the association's side. If it were the dojo department, they might run faster than anyone else, but the association and the league have always stood on the side of the people."

Upon hearing this, Chen Shilong slowly rose and bowed deeply to the two of them.

The two powerful figures were moved by this. "Mayor, please disclose the detailed information you have about the Evil God Scroll Master so that we can prepare a response in advance," Wang Fengnian said solemnly.

Without further ado, Chen Shilong handed over the information about the Evil God Scroll Master that he had prepared beforehand to the three of them.

“These are some evil scroll painters that Chen has taken in over the years. They are all heinous criminals,” Chen Shilong introduced. “As for how many they have recruited later, we don’t know.”

Even the well-informed Cui Wenxuan and Wang Fengnian couldn't help but secretly marvel as they flipped through the list of information about the Evil God Scroll Master.

"Tsk tsk, they're all notorious criminals on the list!" Cui Wenxuan exclaimed in amazement. "Turns out they've been hiding around Yaoyang City all along."

"It seems that the evil god scroll painters have all united as one in order to create the evil realm," Wang Fengnian analyzed. "Fortunately, the evil god scroll painters are not a monolithic group; they are essentially a disorganized bunch."

Wu Xian curiously flipped through the information recorded by Chen Shilong, finally stopping at a major criminal from the insect realm: "Fei Jian, who lay dormant in the insectoid world nine years ago, nicknamed the 'Brain-Eating Worm,' ranked thirty-seventh on the association's bounty list..."

According to the three bigwigs, the evil god scroll painters are not a united front.

It's normal for "demonic cultivators" to kill each other.

It would be abnormal if people could live in harmony and peace.

Therefore, the subsequent plan to defeat them one by one will be easier to implement.

On the association's side, the tattoo warriors trained by the tattoo guy are definitely a good match for dealing with the evil god scroll painter.

The military has also fully equipped itself with Wang Xiaocong's super-equipment scroll painting, and has also introduced Tattoo Guy's "human body scroll painting art" recently.

"Let's leave these insectoids to our Underworld Club," Wu Xian said.

"Huh?" Cui Wenxuan and Wang Fengnian couldn't help but worry.

After all, the Underworld Club is still in its early stages of development.

Little did they know, Wu Xian was already a powerful figure who possessed the Jade Scroll, and also had the [Pleiades Star Lord], a powerful weapon against insects.

Most importantly, there's also a royal-level demon assisting them from the insect realm.

“Yaoyang City should be able to hold out for a while, so there’s no need to rush things. We can take it slow,” Chen Shilong advised. “It would be best to solve the problem of the evil realm’s infiltration first.”

Everyone understands.

First, find a way to sabotage the evil realm's infiltration plan; then, defeating them one by one will eliminate any worries.

To put it bluntly, the priority is still to protect Yaoyang City.

However, once the evil god scroll illustrators' plans fail, they probably won't be as peaceful as they are now.

……

Back at the villa in the North District, I worked through the night to prepare two sets of "City God Temple" offerings, which were placed in two core areas of Yaoyang City.

The next day, they arrived at the club early to gather a few people to go to the Zerg alien world.

With the three Huang sisters all having the handsome Pleiades Star Lord by their side, they are undoubtedly the best candidates, and naturally, their second brother, Xue Zhengying, should also be included.

Upon learning that Wu Xian was going to the Insect Realm to hunt down an evil god scroll painter, the three Huang sisters couldn't help but feel nervous.

"It's just a bug-type evil god. Your Pleiades god can handle it with ease," Wu Xian joked.

Unfortunately, to avoid causing panic, we can only proceed with this small-scale task for the time being.

“That’s true,” Huang Lili said nervously, “but we girls are really afraid of bugs!”

"..." Wu Xian was both amused and exasperated. "If we just wipe out those disgusting bugs, we won't be afraid anymore, right?"

“That’s right.” The three Huang sisters’ eyes lit up slightly.
