I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

Tianyun City.

The absolute core of Tianyun Prefecture is also one of the most brilliant pearls of human civilization in this wasteland.

Looking out the porthole.

The entire city was shrouded in a huge, pale blue energy shield. The shield's surface shimmered with iridescent light, and runes flickered intermittently, radiating a chilling energy fluctuation.

This is the legendary Sky Curtain Defense System, which is said to be able to withstand a full-force attack from a seventh-tier Beast King.

Inside the shield.

The towering buildings, hundreds of meters high, stand side by side, resembling a steel jungle.

Countless levitation train tracks weave and crisscross between buildings, while all sorts of flying machines swarm busily like bees.

The most eye-catching feature is the giant tower that pierces the clouds in the center of the city.

It is entirely black, towering two thousand meters high, resembling a sharp sword piercing the sky.

That was the power center of Tianyun Prefecture—the Zhentian Tower.

Even from a great distance, Shen Tian could feel the oppressive aura emanating from the tower.

Compared to Jiangcheng, a small place that still needs high walls for protection, this place truly feels like a fortress from the future.

A sense of awe washes over you as modern technology and martial arts civilization are perfectly blended.

"How is it? Spectacular, isn't it?"

Zhou Xuan walked to the window, looked down at the city, and a hint of pride appeared on his face:

"This is the true essence of humanity."

"Jiangcheng is not bad, but compared to the provincial capital, it is still a rural area."

Shen Tian nodded without refuting.

It is really strong.

In just those few minutes, his [Heavenly Heart Connection] sensed several extremely powerful auras passing beneath the airship.

Fifth order?

There are even beings at the sixth rank!

The density of powerful individuals here is frighteningly high.

"drop--!"

Just then, a piercing alarm suddenly came through the airship's communication channel.

Immediately afterwards, two black-painted fighter jets roared out of the clouds and flanked the Narwhal from the left and right.

Although the airship already bore the insignia of the Heavenly Fortune Prefecture.

However, routine checks are still necessary.

"You have entered the Level 1 airspace control zone of Tianyun City."

"Please proceed with identity verification."

Zhou Xuan remained calm, simply picking up the glass of red wine and gently swirling it.

Two fighter jets emitted a pale blue light curtain, which enveloped the airship from above.

It not only scanned the exterior of the airship, but also penetrated directly into its interior, clearly scanning the appearance of each person.

After a while.

The voices coming from the fighter jets became increasingly respectful.

"So it's Inspector Zhou!"

"We'll open the channel for you now!"

In their eyes, Zhou Xuan was the most distinguished person on the airship.

As for the other three...

They were all unfamiliar faces.

The voice just fell.

The two fighter jets, which had been so menacing, immediately put away their weapons, performed a synchronized side roll, and then flew obediently in front of the Narwhale, becoming an escort formation.

The previously red no-fly signal light instantly turned into a green light, allowing unimpeded passage.

Even the airport's control tower in the distance has cleared out a dedicated runway.

Zhou Xuan cut off the communication, turned to look at Shen Tian, ​​and his expression was extremely smug.

It's as if it's saying: Look, this is the kind of status I have.

Zhou Xuan took a sip of wine and said meaningfully, "As long as you are strong enough and have a high enough status, you are the rule."

He had hoped to see even the slightest ripple on Shen Tian's face.

After all, they are young and full of vigor.

And they came from a small place like Jiangcheng.

Who doesn't crave absolute power?

however.

Shen Tian merely glanced indifferently at the respectfully escorting fighter jets outside the window.

His gaze was calm, as if he hadn't seen anything at all.

The Narwhale slowly descended.

Instead of going to the crowded and noisy airport, it hovered directly atop a skyscraper in the core area of ​​Tianyun City.

Tianyun Genting International Hotel.

This is the highest-standard and most luxurious accommodation in the entire Tianyun Mansion, known as "only those who stand on the clouds are qualified to stay here".

A red carpet had already been laid out on the huge tarmac.

The hatch opened.

Two rows of uniformed, good-looking waiters bowed in unison, their voices as sweet as honey.

"Welcome to Genting Highlands!"

Presentation.

It certainly has a grand presence.

Zhou Xuan stepped out of the cabin first, but he did not have the arrogance of a great man. Instead, he stood by the cabin door like the most competent butler, and even thoughtfully patted the hand that was not being reached out.

"Brother Shen, watch out for the steps."

This scene made the hotel manager, who was greeting guests nearby, twitch his eyelids.

Who is Zhou Xuan?

Inspector of Tianyun Prefecture!

Fifth-tier expert!

In Tianyun City, where powerful and wealthy people are everywhere, he is a big shot who can be ranked in the top 100. He usually looks down on everyone he meets.

What's wrong with me today?

Taking the wrong medicine?

Although the manager was inwardly turmoil, he dared not show the slightest negligence and hurriedly ran to greet him.

"Inspector Zhou, why didn't you give us a heads-up before you arrived? We could have cleared the area to welcome you!"

The manager was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a large belly and a shrewd smile typical of businessmen.

Zhou Xuan waved his hand, resuming his aloof and superior demeanor.

"I brought a few distinguished guests to this performance review meeting. Book your 'Cloud Palace' suite on the top floor and arrange two more presidential suites for me."

The manager's smile froze instantly.

Cold sweat poured down my forehead in a flash.

"This... Inspector Zhou, this..."

The manager stammered, his eyes darting around, clearly facing a great difficulty.

Zhou Xuan frowned, his face instantly darkening.

"What? Is there a problem?"

"Inspector Zhou, as you know, this is a crucial time for the performance review meeting."

The manager took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat and said with a bitter face:

"Not only have the garrison commanders of the various garrison cities come, but also some important figures from other prefectures have come."

Our hotel... is already fully booked.

"Not to mention the top-tier suites like the 'Sky Palace' which only has three rooms, even the regular presidential suites and business rooms were all booked out two weeks ago."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xuan's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Fully booked?

No house?

What a joke!

He bragged wildly on the airship, confidently assuring Shen Tian that once they arrived in Tianyun City, Shen Tian would enjoy the highest standards of living, from food and drink to sleeping arrangements, and experience what it truly meant to be a "superior person."

The results of it?

He was slapped hard across the face as soon as he landed.

There isn't even a place to stay?

Where does that leave him with his old face?

This is not just a matter of face; it is a crucial moment for him to demonstrate his value in front of Shen Tian, ​​this "golden thigh"!

If you can't even handle this small matter, how will you ever get on someone's good side in the future?

"No?"

Seeing this, Qin Zhenshan, who was standing nearby, did not want to make a big fuss.

He had lived in Jiangcheng for a long time and had become accustomed to keeping a low profile.

He always did the same thing every year when he came to report on his work, and he didn't care about it.

"Old Zhou, forget it."

Qin Zhenshan tugged at Zhou Xuan's sleeve, trying to smooth things over:

"It's just a matter of staying for two nights, there's no need to stay in such a nice place, any clean room will do."

Chi Xiao nodded in agreement.

But these words sounded like adding fuel to the fire to Zhou Xuan's ears.

Forget it?

How can you calculate that!

If Shen Tian were to live in such a lousy place, what would Zhou Xuan become?

Wasteful snacks?

"No!"

Zhou Xuan suddenly waved his hand, his voice rising eight octaves, resolute and decisive.

"Old Qin, don't worry about it!"

"We absolutely must have this house today! And it has to be the best!"

After saying that, Zhou Xuan turned around and took out a black and gold card from his pocket.

"No matter what, I want the best room."

"I only need one unit, not all of your rooms!"

"I'll pay double the price, okay?"

"Double isn't enough, quadruple is!"
