Those who came to collect the debt were mostly elderly men and women. Although they were old, they were agile and coordinated well, beating Yang Qiang and his men so badly that they had no chance to fight back.
One of the older women spat at Yang Qiang without any mercy, then put her hands on her hips and shouted:
"Hmph! We are all protected by the dragon. We are doing this on your behalf to punish you wicked people. Give us back our hard-earned money. Otherwise, we'll beat you up again!"
After saying that, he waved the rolling pin in one hand.
Yang Qiang stared wide-eyed at what was happening before him in disbelief. He never imagined that he would be defeated by a group of old men.
At this moment, the once aggressive subordinates dared not utter a sound and silently endured the pain.
As Yang Qiang backed away, he smiled apologetically and promised to repay the money as soon as possible. His face was extremely ugly, and he cursed inwardly, thinking how powerful these old men and women were.
After the debt collectors left, Yang Qiang immediately gathered his underlings and ordered them to investigate whether the group of elderly people had a powerful backer. He refused to believe that he, with his abilities, couldn't defeat a few old men and women.
Soon the red-haired henchman returned to report on the situation.
"Brother Qiang, I've found out. Those old men and women don't have any powerful figures behind them. They just changed drastically after watching Jiang Wanwan's live stream. That old man Liu was sickly before, but now he's full of energy. I heard he even ran a marathon!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Qiang's eyes widened in disbelief. He simply couldn't comprehend how these elderly men and women had undergone such a complete transformation!
He gritted his teeth and said, "The Free and Unfettered Sect again? Humph! This Free and Unfettered Sect has been making headlines lately! Come on, tell everyone to gather at the entertainment center this afternoon to watch that... that live stream together!"
He secretly thought to himself, if he couldn't beat them, then he had no choice but to join them.
However, at that moment, the red-haired younger brother cautiously said:
"Um... Brother Qiang, we've actually watched that live stream privately, but it doesn't seem to have any effect on us."
Moreover, rumors are circulating wildly online that those with wicked intentions and great evil are abandoned by the dragon, and watching countless live sermons will be of no use!
Upon hearing this, Yang Qiang's heart sank, and he fell into deep thought.
So, they might still be bullied or beaten in the future?
Crescent Village.
After resting for one night in Crescent Village, Jiang Qinian eagerly embarked on her journey to find the blue mist early the next morning.
Meanwhile, inside the canyon, Mei Chuan Kuzi became completely captivated by the wonder of the blue mist after personally experiencing it.
He even went so far as to work through the night to create a special collection device to capture all those dreamlike blue mists and then gather them into a black container.
First, liquefy the mist, and then freeze it into crystal-clear blue ice crystals.
Mei Chuan Kuzi carefully picked up one of the blue ice crystals; its captivating luster under the sunlight was mesmerizing.
He couldn't help but stick out his tongue and lick it lightly. Instantly, a strange energy spread throughout his body, making him feel numb and tingly, as if every cell was cheering and jumping for joy.
He clearly felt that his body's potential seemed to have been further stimulated and enhanced.
He was secretly overjoyed, thinking to himself, "Such a miraculous treasure must be brought back to China as soon as possible; we absolutely cannot let the Chinese discover it!"
So he sped up the collection process, and in just a few hours, he had transformed all the blue mist that had been permeating the air into ice.
After Jiang Qinian spent a lot of money to learn the exact location of the blue mist from the little beggar, she rushed to the canyon just as she passed by Mei Chuan Kuzi.
The canyon was empty, with nothing in it.
Country D, the federal government.
At this moment, a tense atmosphere permeated the solemn and imposing government building, with vigilance and unease shrouding every corner.
The siren pierced the silence, and the red warning lights flashed incessantly, as if foreshadowing an impending storm.
The entire government building has been upgraded to the highest level of alert, Level 1, and all security measures have been fully activated.
Security personnel moved swiftly through the corridors, their expressions serious and tense. Armed, they scanned their surroundings with sharp eyes, not missing a single potential threat.
In the hall, people moved hurriedly and frantically, each face showing fear. They spoke in hushed tones, their voices revealing their dread and anxiety about the unknown dangers.
"President! The Chinese government has sent a telegram demanding that we exchange three mines and the sovereignty of the Qatari territory for the Mumbai general and other soldiers!"
"Smack!"
A sharp sound shattered the silence in the room as Chris angrily slammed the teacup he was holding onto the floor. His eyes widened, and he roared furiously, "Go call Smith! He won't abandon us!"
The secretary stood nervously to the side and said cautiously, "I already called President Smith before we came, but he didn't answer..."
"Hit me again! Hit me right here!" Chris roared furiously, like a trapped wild beast.
The secretary inwardly groaned, but still obediently picked up the phone and dialed the number. However, as expected, no one answered.
Chris was furious, pacing back and forth in the room, panting heavily. Just then, the phone rang, like a ray of hope.
Chris rushed over and eagerly picked up the phone, ready to shout his questions into the receiver, when a familiar voice came from the other end—the voice of the Minister of the Army.
"Mr. President, something terrible has happened! Country M has unilaterally broken its agreement and cut off military aid to us!" the minister said anxiously.
Chris's mind was only focused on two words: "It's over!" He didn't hear anything else.
"president..."
The minister's anxious voice came through the phone, and the secretary quickly took the call to explain the situation.
After a long while, Corliss finally rallied and said to his secretary, "Call the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and tell them that we agree to their request."
The Free and Unfettered Sect.
Jiang Wanwan had just finished her sermon when Yan Ziyan returned, having successfully completed his mission.
Then I heard Xiao Guang say that the essence of gold has been refined.
Therefore, Jiang Wanwan quickly convened a sect meeting.
After discussions with everyone, it was decided that the release location would be Kyoto, the center of China.
"Okay! I'll have someone arrange it right away!"
Upon receiving the news, Qin Ze immediately took action, making arrangements for the welcoming ceremony and issuing a notice to the people of Kyoto and the entire country to prepare for the spiritual energy revival.
