Chapter 239: [238] The Dream Master Falls into a Trap

"Your Excellency, what do you think?"

Faced with Cheng Han's soul-searching, the Grand Chancellor finally erupted.

Bai Yichuan's old face turned pale: "Cheng Han, that's enough!"

The old man didn't address Cheng Han as "Director Cheng" but called him by his name, clearly furious.

Even Fang Qinghuai had already guessed that the "king vs. king" scene would be extremely intense.

But he never expected that the two sides would start fighting without even sitting at the dinner table.

Xie You gently tugged at the sleeve of the patriarch and made a gesture to leave.

Fang Qinghuai realized and quickly followed Xie You towards the door.

The Lord of Dongyuan felt that although the scene of these big shots tearing each other apart was exciting, it was better to watch less.

Fang Qinghuai had only taken a few steps when he heard the angry roar of the Grand Chancellor.

"Cheng Han, is it because Lord Xuan Shi promised you something that you can't wait to force me to step down so that you can take my place as the Grand Chancellor?"

Upon hearing these words, Fang Qinghuai's footsteps involuntarily slowed down.

From this series of events, it seemed that what the Grand Chancellor said was not necessarily impossible.

After half a breath.

Fang Qinghuai heard Director Cheng's signature calm tone.

"Your Excellency, why would you think that? Perhaps I should address you by another name."

There was a pause in his words, followed by a hint of a smile. "Your Excellency, the 'Dream Master' of the Dream Birth Society."

Upon hearing the term "Dream Master," a thunderous sound seemed to ring in Fang Qinghuai's mind.

My goodness!

The Grand Chancellor of this city is actually the Dream Master of the Dream Birth Society?!

In an instant, everything became clear to him.

So the various means employed by Director Cheng were all to make the Grand Chancellor mistakenly believe that he was coveting the position of the Grand Chancellor.

In reality, Director Cheng's true purpose was to lure the Dream Master out of his lair during this banquet.

Bai Yichuan fell for it!

Everyone was kept in the dark!

Director Cheng's methods were truly brilliant!

Fang Qinghuai immediately realized another thing—there was great danger here.

The Dream Master must be more powerful than the Grand Dreamer, and an ordinary person like himself would probably be killed in minutes.

Run!

He must run immediately!

However.

He was still a step too late.

Just as Fang Qinghuai's right foot moved, everything before his eyes blurred.

In the next moment.

The world instantly changed its appearance.

His own mansion disappeared without a trace, replaced by floating black boulders. He himself was standing above a stone platform with a diameter of over ten meters.

And below, there was a boiling sea of lava, seemingly endless.

Fang Qinghuai was stunned for a moment.

What is happening?

How did I end up here?

A familiar female voice came from behind, explaining his confusion: "This is a dream. We have been pulled into the Dream Master's dream."

It was Xie You's voice.

Fang Qinghuai suddenly understood.

Just then.

A sudden change occurred.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a loud noise.

A large amount of scorching lava erupted into the sky.

A huge figure, formed by the solidification of lava, emerged from the lava with only its upper body exceeding twenty meters, resembling the Grand Chancellor.

Fang Qinghuai was shocked and terrified, immediately realizing that this was Bai Yichuan's incarnation.

"Cheng Han, how dare you plot against me!"

The voice of the lava giant echoed through the area like a resounding bell.

Bai Yichuan was not a fool and had already realized what had happened.

He had believed the rumors that Cheng Han coveted the position of the Grand Chancellor and had come to the banquet without thinking, only to fall into a big trap.

A floating island over a thousand meters away.

Cheng Han's figure appeared on it, and he laughed loudly, "Sir, it took me a lot of effort to deceive you into coming to the Winter Garden."

In fact.

After talking with the guardian Xuan Shi earlier, he had made a special effort to investigate and discovered the true identity of the Grand Chancellor.

Madam She was just a disguise for Amelia, who possessed the "power of secrecy." As long as Bai Yichuan received the help of the divine being, it wouldn't be too difficult to deceive the Xuan Ge.

It is worth mentioning that over the years, Bai Yichuan had secretly planted dream imprints on many people around him.

This is what made the guardian Xuan Shi feel helpless. If they were to take action against him, Bai Yichuan would definitely fight to the death, and most of these public officials would not escape death.

Therefore, Cheng Han carefully designed this plan to "lure the snake out of its hole."

Bai Yichuan's next words were filled with deep resentment, "Cheng Han, you are doomed today!"

As if to prove his words, the lava giant exploded again by his side.

"Boom!"

More lava flew into the sky.

A large group of red flying creatures quickly shot out from the sea of lava, flying in groups into the sky.

They were actually bat snakes made of solidified lava, numbering over five hundred.

Such methods were truly worthy of a dream master.

In comparison, the abilities of a grand dream master could only create dozens at most.

Cheng Han showed no fear, but instead smiled, "Dream Master, the guardian Xuan Shi is about to arrive, yet you are entangled with me here, which is not a wise move."

He had already informed the guardian Xuan Shi of this fishing plan through a secret channel.

Within three seconds at most, the other party would definitely arrive.

The tone of the lava giant was filled with immense hatred, "The flow of time in my dreams is ten times slower than the outside world. I have enough time to deal with you, you scum!" Secret Realm Remnant Seal

Cheng Han let out a breath and calmly slapped his palm in mid-air.

At the same time, the typical fluctuations of a dream master surged within him.

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by a strange sound, a ripple appeared where his palm landed, swiftly sweeping across all directions.

Upon closer observation.

Wherever the ripple passed, one could vaguely see an endless expanse of illusory scenery.

Cheng Han smiled, "Dream Master, I suggest you take a closer look. Is the flow of time still ten to one?"

The lava giant sensed for a moment and exclaimed, "A four-layer dream within a dream?! You are just a warrior, how could you master such a technique?!"

The flow of time in a dream within a dream could be adjusted at will, making it the most effective method of reversing time.

Cheng Han smiled, "There is nothing impossible."

In the previous battle at the Winter Garden, he had used the technique of a dream within a dream to deal with three grand dream masters single-handedly, but at that time, it was only a single layer of a dream within a dream.

After so long of continuous research, he had long deduced the method of creating multiple layers of dreams within dreams.

This mainly depended on the strength of one's spiritual power.

With Cheng Han's formidable spiritual power comparable to a Xuan Shi, a four-layer dream within a dream was nothing.

The lava giant suddenly roared in anger, "Wan Haoren, I will make you pay the price, all of you will die!"

With this shout, a dark ripple shot out from the dream.

*

The Council Hall.

The Grand Chancellor's secretary, Ding Shulin, sat in front of a mirror, carefully tending to the wound at the corner of her eye.

Before Bai Yichuan went to the banquet, he had tortured her mercilessly, a process that could only be described as "abuse."

This poor woman dared not resist and could only silently endure.

She was afraid of angering her boss and didn't even dare to seek treatment for her wounds, so she could only secretly tend to them herself.

"Buzz!"

An illusory sound suddenly appeared.

Ding Shulin suddenly showed a painful expression, and blood oozed from all seven orifices.

"Ah~ it hurts~"

She groaned in extreme pain, and suddenly saw the mirror rapidly expanding, as if it was about to devour the entire world.

Just then.

A sigh sounded out of thin air.

"The Dream Master's methods are truly impressive. He has actually set up the 'Heavenly Illusion Dream Realm' to try and drag half the city into the dream world."
