The matter goes back to two hours ago, when the "Firecracker" Lord took out his little toy, Shang Ji was indeed surprised.
But immediately afterwards, he admired the Lord's courage and quickly took measures, directly serving him with the Swarm Network, starting close surveillance.
The Lord indeed took full precautions, even preparing an additional safety measure within his territory. If he did not report back in time, a timer within the territory would instantly detonate another Hot Nuclear Firecracker.
The level of power was enough to cover the entire White Poplar City area, truly achieving intimidation.
However, he overlooked the fact that this is no ordinary world.
After the meeting ended, when he left the crowd and was alone, Shang Ji pulled in all the Rank 5 beings currently in the territory.
He "welcomed" the Lord mid-way with the highest standards and had a "friendly" exchange, eventually making him "voluntarily" swallow a Facehugger, becoming part of the Swarm.
