"Because the weight Albert and Smith gained last time was exposed, quite a few powerhouses have become interested in punishment missions. So aside from those who were with you last time, many powerhouses used their authority to set the mission. This punishment mission will likely be split into several parts."
The Fujiwara Family Head had ultimately experienced far more missions than Xu Yue and had seen every kind of storm.
During extreme confrontations, extensive use of mission-setting authority could easily cause subsequent punishment missions to become overcrowded, splitting them into several different punishment missions.
"Mm, it's fine. We'll see where fate takes us. There's no need to force it, is there?"
Xu Yue spoke casually.
"Also, be a little careful when consolidating those California representatives. Don't make it too obvious for now."
"Understood."
Although they had brought a large number of California Legion higher-ups under their control at once, including quite a few legion commanders,
it was still impossible to swallow them all in one bite using only the representatives left behind at the manor last time.
They could only first use those people's influence to roughly control California as a whole and steer it in a favorable direction.
Xu Yue only needed to offer that reminder.
As an old hand who had led his family for many years, the Fujiwara Family Head could naturally arrange everything properly.
After dismissing the Fujiwara Family Head, the time for this punishment mission arrived as well.
Amid the familiar sensation of freezing and shattering, Xu Yue entered this mission...
Beneath an ordinary world lay many unknown secrets, waiting to be deeply developed and explored...
``` Punishment mission: Make contact with at least one hidden world and gain sufficient fame or influence within it. (Note: The more you contact, the greater the weight.)
