Return of the King, Dominating the City

Chapter 2058: Chapter 1848: An Ugly Expression

For a moment, everyone started to feel worried.

If it’s any other family, it’s fine. But the Shen Family is insidious and fierce; if they are powerful, they will surely wreak havoc in the Huaxia Hermit World.

Gu Hong frowned and said to Shen Wenguang, "To find Taoyuan, you need two maps, combined as one. Did your Shen Family obtain two maps?"

Shen Wenguang smiled smugly, boasting, "Perhaps it’s the blessing of fortune; the heavens favor my Shen Family. Not long ago, my Shen Family acquired two maps, and when combined, they form the route to Taoyuan."

Upon hearing this, everyone’s heart skipped a beat.

Since Shen Wenguang mentioned obtaining two maps, chances are they have already found the entrance to Taoyuan.

It seems getting resources is just a matter of time for them.

Looking at everyone’s grim expressions, Shen Wenguang chuckled, "Oh dear, I’ve gotten a bit carried away. I haven’t even asked Kun Hu whether he found the entrance to Taoyuan, and here I am, babbling on."

Despite saying this, Shen Wenguang’s expression grew more smug.

Sitting next to him, Shen Kunpeng straightened his back, looking all proud as if their Shen Family had already conquered the world.

Shen Wenguang chuckled and casually looked at Shen Kunhu, saying, "Kunhu, tell us, what does the entrance to Taoyuan look like? We all want to hear it."

Upon hearing this, the corner of Shen Kunhu’s mouth twitched.

While watching Shen Wenguang boast in front of a group of SSS-class powerhouses, Shen Kunhu felt nothing but distress.

At the moment he heard Shen Wenguang asking him to describe the entrance to Taoyuan, his expression immediately collapsed, grimacing, he said, "Father, let’s... discuss this privately."

He dared not admit he hadn’t found Taoyuan, otherwise, the Shen Family would lose face in front of so many SSS-class powerhouses.

But, in his moment of smugness, Shen Wenguang clearly didn’t notice his son’s unusual demeanor.

He even assumed that Shen Kunhu was playing along with his boasting.

He laughed and said, "Kunhu, why be so secretive; just say it and make everyone happy."

By then, others might be happy, but you won’t be.

The corner of Shen Kunhu’s mouth twitched in bitterness, "Father, it’s better to talk about this privately."

Shen Wenguang pretended to be angry, "Kunhu, what’s wrong with you? We’re all family, just tell them."

Dad, you’re the one who insisted I say it.

Shen Kunhu furrowed his brows, braced himself, and whispered, "Father, I... didn’t find the entrance to Taoyuan."

"Right, found it... what! Didn’t find it!"

Shen Wenguang’s expression changed abruptly.

He had been boasting in front of everyone and ended up with this news.

His face was utterly lost.

Watching Shen Wenguang’s suddenly darkened face, the crowd, who was just a bit tense, almost burst into laughter.

Serves you right for showing off, now you look like a fool!

With the sudden turn of events, Shen Wenguang managed to stay somewhat composed, but Shen Kunpeng grabbed Shen Kunhu’s wrist urgently, "How can it not be found? The two maps combined, the route is clear, the coordinates precise. How could you not find it?"

Shen Kunhu also resolved himself, unafraid of losing face in front of everyone, replied, "The two maps... are fake."

What, fake!

Shen Wenguang and Shen Kunpeng were stunned.

Lin Xiao looked at the bewildered Shen Family, smirked, and deliberately provoked, "Shen Wenguang, actually you should be thankful. Taoyuan isn’t so easy to enter; there might be dangers at the entrance. If Kunhu really found the entrance to Taoyuan, whether he could return alive would be questionable."

Gu Hong stroked his beard, adding fuel to the fire, "So, Wenguang was playing a joke on us."

Huang Jinseng, not wanting to be left out, laughed and said, "That joke was quite amusing."

The taunts from the three left Shen Wenguang clenching his teeth in anger.

He looked at Shen Kunhu and coldly said, "You even mentioned this; are you insane?"

Shen Kunhu felt depressed. You insisted on boasting; I said let’s discuss it privately, but you didn’t listen and forced me to speak.

Now being mocked, can you blame me?

Though feeling depressed, Shen Kunhu dared not speak up.

Shen Kunpeng urgently said, "Second brother, how can this be? We got the two maps from different sources; how can they both be fake? Besides, the map translated from the frequency is compiled from the original map by ourselves, it can’t be fake."

Shen Wenguang also showed a puzzled expression, ignoring others, asked, "Kunhu, what is going on?"

Shen Kunhu explained, "The first map, the frequency we received was already altered; the obtained code was wrong, resulting in a fake map after translation. As for the second map, although it was a scanned copy, I later showed it to experts, who said it was refined and then sent to us. In other words, both maps are fake."

Upon hearing this, Shen Kunpeng was even more puzzled: "Both are fake? Why can they integrate into one?"

Shen Kunhu replied: "Because the two fake maps come from the same person, our Shen Family has been played with."

"What, we’ve been fooled!" Shen Kunpeng exclaimed angrily.

"Someone dares to mock our Shen Family like this, I, Shen Wenguang, swear to the heavens, if I find out who he is, I’ll tear him to pieces and make sure he dies without a burial place!"

Shen Wenguang was furious to the extreme.

That mastermind made it impossible for the Shen Family to find the entrance to Taoyuan, and also caused him to lose face in front of a group of sss-levels.

In his heart, he hated that person to the core.

At this moment, Shen Kunhu spoke: "Father, I’ve already found out who’s behind the scenes."

"Who?"

Shen Wenguang’s gaze tensed as he asked in a deep voice.

Shen Kunhu said: "I found the signal transmitter hidden in our Token, right in the suburbs of Dongan City, along with a note saying, ’You got played.’ Ultimately, after investigating through multiple channels, we discovered the mastermind is... Song Yun!"

"What, it’s Song Yun again!"

Shen Wenguang and Shen Kunpeng exclaimed in unison.

"Even writing a note saying ’You got played,’ so arrogant! Too arrogant! Doesn’t even regard our Shen Family!"

Shen Wenguang stood up in rage, his powerful aura surged out turbulently.

The battle on the stage had just ended.

At this moment, everyone was idle, and upon feeling the furious aura, all eyes turned to Shen Wenguang on the high platform.

Everyone noticed that Shen Wenguang was extremely angry.

What happened to this sss-level mid-tier expert?

Shen Wenguang’s gaze coldly fixed on Song Yun below, murderous intent surged.

Just now, Song Yun had killed Shen Han, already creating enmity with the Shen Family.

But Shen Wenguang remained silent, only saying that he wanted Song Yun’s life.

At this moment, why was he so angry again?

The crowd’s curiosity was unanswered.

Shen Wenguang stared at Song Yun for several seconds, then sat down.

He didn’t say much, but everyone believed Song Yun was doomed.

Shen Wenguang would absolutely not spare Song Yun.

The situation seemed to calm down.

But Song Yun stood up, shouted towards the high platform: "How was Shen Family’s trip to Taoyuan? Are you satisfied with the tour route I set up?"

This sentence, besides the sss-levels on the platform, left everyone else confused.

But no one thought Song Yun’s words were kind.

Because as soon as he spoke, Shen Wenguang who had just sat down, stood up again, and his murderous intent was even stronger than before.

Shen Wenguang narrowed his eyes and asked: "Song Yun, do you know what you’re doing?"

Song Yun’s lips curled into a mocking cold smile, defiantly said: "Provoking the Shen Family! Angering the Shen Family! Humiliating the Shen Family!"

The words shook the entire arena.

Domineering, brazen, arrogant...

Song Yun’s disposition didn’t change even when facing the sss-level mid-tier Shen Wenguang.

Of course, he had no reason to change.

Would submitting to the Shen Family make them spare him?

For Song Yun, when facing enemies, there is no begging, no negotiation.

The only solution is combat!

Facing the even more domineering Song Yun, Shen Wenguang’s expression grew increasingly grim.

However, he didn’t argue with Song Yun.

He turned his gaze to the Shen Family’s area and said calmly: "Lingyun, I permit you to use that weapon. Kill Song Yun, cut him down to scraps. Let the world see the consequences of opposing our Shen Family."
