Chang Le scoffed: "There's no need for 'someone' anymore, the Qin family is definitely involved. From the moment they sent Ding Yu to keep an eye on me, they had no intention of hiding it."
"The Qin family wants to integrate with me, but they can't do it themselves, so they'll use someone else to do it. There are only a few good tools to achieve this, such as the Meli Federation and the God-Making Faction. But the problem is, this way, the Qin family won't be able to obtain the Golden Medicine themselves. The Qin family won't dig a hole for themselves, so in this incident, the Qin family has probably become someone else's tool."
Luo Xuan said, "I'm afraid that the person who is really controlling this whole thing has other plans, and that are even bigger than those of the Qin family, behind such ruthless methods."
Chang Le's gaze deepened: "Brother Xuan, Lao Gui, there's actually another knife that's the sharpest and most useful."
Zigui Ti gasped slightly: "You mean, the alien riots!"
A flash of inspiration struck Luo Xuan: "It all makes sense! Right now, the instability of the Old Ruins is normal, and it's normal for it to trigger a riot in the Northern Realm Old Ruins. Moreover, the Ninth District is still in the limelight, and most of the world is in a wait-and-see state. And because of the Golden Medicine, the major districts are also becoming increasingly alienated from the Ninth District!"
Chang Le continued, "If a large-scale riot were to break out in the Northern Ruins at this time, and no one in the world came to our aid, and the major regions were hesitant to come out, then the Ninth District, which is located at the gateway for the alien species to enter human settlements in the Northern Ruins, would be... isolated and without support!"
Her eyes were faintly tinged with red, her fists clenched, and her voice was chilling: "Look at this, how familiar this situation is, how familiar these methods are!"
"But this time, they're after me!"
At this moment, the fog cleared, and a dangerous conspiracy began to surface.
The window, slightly ajar, let out a sharp whistling sound as the wind forced its way through, the cold wind blowing straight to my heart.
"Brother Xuan, help me secretly send out some messages."
"Old rule, I'll borrow your disguise."
The two immediately agreed.
Chang Le said in a deep voice, "That's not enough. If you really want to push me into a corner, that's not enough. Just a little bit of whispered discord is not enough to make the whole region suspicious and wary of me. The people behind this have a backup plan."
"Moreover, the Qin family's actions are not over yet; they are unlikely to be willing to do the work for others."
"Contact Lu Yanhuai and inform him of the situation; notify Wan Buxun to enter a state of alert; notify Guidao to strengthen monitoring of the Northern Border Ruins; notify all cities to prepare."
For each city in the nine districts, the word "prepare" means battle and sacrifice.
After Luo Xuan and Zi Guiti received their orders, Chang Le was left alone in the room.
She sat down at the table, her tension vanished, replaced by a slight, playful smile as she murmured, "The fish has taken the bait. Human nature..."
...
Qin Shaoji's face was ashen, but his steps into the secret room were somewhat hurried.
The mirror connects to the other side of the space, where the mysterious Mr. Ming still resides, only now the woman is no longer by his side.
"Mr. Ming, what do you mean by this?" Qin Shaoji's tone was anything but gentle. "The Golden Medicine was an exchange between me and your sect, for our shared future cause. Why did you leak it to the Federation? Why make such a fuss?"
Mr. Ming's voice was calm, which seemed somewhat sarcastic compared to Qin Shaoji's agitation: "Wasn't it you who demanded that the plan be stopped to buy you time to obtain Chang Le and the Golden Medicine? As for what methods I used, do you dare to question me?"
Qin Shaoji suppressed his anger and said, "But you, me, and him are all here! We are all working for the new world order of the future, and fusion and the Golden Medicine are the key! You also promised me that you would not endanger the regime in the Central Plains, but now!"
With the secret known to most of the Federation, how can you and I maintain order? The Dragon Faction and Chang Le have also been pushed away, and peace talks are now a distant prospect. You're forcing me to fight her!
"Mr. Ming, what exactly do you want to do?"
By the end, Qin Shaoji's tone was filled with deep doubt.
"You dare question me?" Mr. Ming's voice was deep.
"Qin Shaoji, don't forget how you broke through to the extraordinary realm and how you got to this position!"
Panic and frustration flashed in Qin Shaoji's eyes, and his face turned pale.
“Originally, you had no choice but to go all in this time. I gave you a push, and you should be grateful,” Mr. Ming said slowly.
Qin Shaoji said in a hoarse voice, "I'm the one who's going all in, but it can't be the entire Qin family! The master is forcing me!"
"Can't take it already?" Mr. Ming sneered. "Don't rush, Qin Shaoji, you will make a choice."
He gave a mocking chuckle and waved to disconnect.
Qin Shaoji slumped onto the cold stool, remaining silent for a long time in the darkness.
He never expected things to suddenly turn out this way.
Even more unexpectedly, Mr. Ming, who had secretly worked with him for many years, broke his promise to establish a new, more complete, and more rigorous order among cultivators through integration, and suddenly betrayed him, completely disrupting the original plan and forcing him to this point.

Regarding the drugs from Gamma Labs, the Dragon faction responded with indifference and arrogance, stating "there has been no leakage," before offering no further comment and passing the buck to the regional headquarters. This attitude fueled further discontent, with the initial skeptics fanning the flames and escalating the situation internally.
Fortunately, the Gu family, Hua family, and other major families made it clear to their members that there was something fishy about the matter and that an investigation was needed. They did not allow any wild speculation, which brought the situation under control.
However, what happened next was completely unexpected!
...

The Gamma Labs scandal has yet to subside, and on the international communication platform FGN (Freedom Gossip News), a user with millions of followers posted the following message:
