There was a lot of hype in the media for two or three months about population growth and land shortage.

By late October, however, the media's tide had changed.

The collective turned to reporting on the news about the evil cultivators in Nan Yuan Continent who were doing evil in Zhong Yuan Continent.

For example, some evil cultivators kidnapped and killed wealthy people in Wancheng Kingdom and plundered people's property.

For example, an evil cultivator sneaked into Wan Chengguo's factory and stole advanced technical data.

For example, some evil cultivators plundered the men and women of Wancheng Kingdom, refined them into cauldrons, and then killed them.

Many vicious criminal incidents that occurred in Wancheng Country were all related to the evil cultivators of Nanyuanzhou who broke into Wancheng Country.

What has attracted the most attention and anger across the country is that more than two months ago, during a competition held by the Mu family in Xingtang City, Fairy Mu, the youngest immortal in Wancheng Kingdom, was abducted by an evil cultivator in public. The National Special Operations Bureau investigated and Later, it was confirmed that it was also the work of a group of evil cultivators from Nanyuan Continent.

Even for the extremely high-profile "Mu Xianzi kidnapping incident", the National Special Operations Bureau specially held a press conference to announce the details, display the crime tools, demonstrate the crime methods, and combined with the previous investigation, came to the conclusion: if Excluding Fairy Mu, the criminal gang formed by Patriarch Shekui and his apprentices took away the lives of at least seven women and three men, a total of ten geniuses from the Wancheng Kingdom.

His crimes were simply cruel, cruel and heart-rending!

Not only that, at this press conference, Mu Xianzi, Mu Feiyan, was also invited to the scene by officials from the National Special Operations Bureau. She answered several questions in front of hundreds of reporters and talked about the matter. the opinion of.

Mu Feiyan cleared her throat and said a few words based on the script someone had prepared for her in advance:

"The evil cultivators in Nanyuanzhou are doing evil in our homeland and plundering wantonly. We should face up to their danger and protect our safety."

"But the evil cultivators are cunning and insidious, always hiding in the dark and shooting cold arrows at the kind-hearted people of our country. No matter how powerful the country is, it is always difficult to guard against it. We can only rely on ourselves to strengthen our vigilance and provide more clues to the Special Operations Bureau. "

"These measures are ultimately helpless and passive choices. If we want to completely stop those evil cultivators, we need smarter methods."

"I believe that with the strength of our country and the wisdom of our leaders, those unscrupulous evil cultivators will eventually receive the punishment they deserve."

Mu Feiyan's speech was reported by hundreds of media and aroused heated discussion across the country.

The focus of people's heated discussion is one is Fairy Mu's stunning appearance in the newspaper; the other is how can we completely get rid of those rampant and cruel evil cultivators of Nanyuanzhou?

How can we completely stop these evil cultivators from causing trouble and running around in Wancheng, a peaceful and prosperous country with advanced science and technology and many geniuses?

In other words, how can we get rid of all these evil cultivators more thoroughly?

It is impossible to set up defenses on the border. With a border tens of thousands of miles long, how much manpower must be deployed to block the evil cultivators from Nanyuan Continent?

What if we change our thinking and directly send military forces to Nanyuan Continent to eliminate all those evil cultivators from the source?

This is the best way to solve the problem once and for all.

As a result, some small and medium-sized media began to appear in newspapers such as "Conquer Nanyuan Continent, attack the lair of evil cultivators", "Capture Nanyuan Continent, pull out the cancer, and eliminate all evil cultivators". The readers found it very reasonable. , all said, "Good idea, good idea!"

Zhou Ming in Daxian Academy immediately smelled the coming storm.

He quickly wrote a letter to Mu Feiyan, asking her why she attended that press conference and acted as a crucial chess piece?

Mu Feiyan wrote back: "Originally I didn't want to go, but an official gave me five million spiritual coins. I thought about it and went over. This should be nothing, right?"

"Pfft~"

Seeing this reply, Zhou Ming spat it out.

"For a mere five million, are you willing to be a pawn of those big shots? Do you know how many people will die because of those words after you say them?"

Probably millions!

Zhou Ming said loudly in his heart that he felt that Mu Feiyan was simply stupid and would do anything just for some spiritual coins.

but……

He also realized that even if Mu Feiyan didn't make those remarks, the top management of Wancheng Kingdom would still cause something to happen.

Something big!

…

Wan Chengguo.

House of Parliament.

In a closed conference hall.

A huge circular conference table.

Wan Cheng's important senior officials in the country gathered together to discuss important matters.

If Zhou Ming were here at this time, he would recognize many old faces.

For example, there are Taoist Hongping from Qingyun Mountain, Taoist Shengkong (Ye Kong) from Guanglei Mountain, and their parents from the previous life—Taishi Yu and Mei Qianhong from Feiyun Mountain.

There are also many new faces.

For example, the current head of state, deputy head of state, minister of defense, minister of economy, director of intelligence, director of special operations, etc.... all are unfamiliar faces.

They were discussing something.

After capturing Nan Yuan Continent, how should the benefits be distributed?

good!

Although the people are still discussing how to deal with the evil cultivators in Nanyuan Continent, the top leaders of Wancheng Kingdom have already reached a high degree of consensus: dispatch the army to devour Nanyuan Continent!

The topic they have been debating these days is mainly the issue of profit distribution.

Nan Yuan Continent has a radius of 200,000 miles, has one large spiritual vein, three small spiritual veins, and thousands of mortal cities.

Thousands of cities in the world all belong to the Wancheng Kingdom, there is no doubt about this.

But how to distribute the four spiritual veins, Qingyun, Guanglei, Chixing and Feiyun Mountains, can be said to be so quarrelsome that it will break the dog's brain.

The first proposers of the war proposal were Tassel Yu and Mei Qianhong from Feiyun Mountain... With the rapid increase in the number of immortals in various mountains over the years, the spiritual veins of Zhongyuan Continent were overwhelmed.

During the low ebb period of the spiritual energy flow, not only Feiyun Mountain encountered a cutoff, but Chixing Mountain in the middle also experienced an insufficient supply of spiritual energy.

As a result, around the insufficient supply of spiritual energy in the spiritual veins, the four major sects continued to be at odds, conflicts and frictions arose again, and the relationship became increasingly tense.

Or Ying Shiyu realized that even if he found trouble with the three sects upstream, it would be impossible to solve the problem... There are 167 immortals in Feiyun Mountain. Even when the spiritual veins are full, the supply of spiritual energy is insufficient and can only be supplemented by the Spirit Gathering Tower. , will there be more immortals in the future?

Even if Feiyun Mountain occupies the entire spiritual vein, the spiritual energy may not be enough.

It can only engage in external expansion.

So Ying Shiyu made a special trip to visit Wu Xinyu, the leader of Wancheng Kingdom, and asked to jointly send troops with Wancheng Kingdom to attack Nanyuanzhou! Wancheng Kingdom gets all the mortal lands and cities, Feiyun Mountain gets all the spiritual veins, mutual benefit and win-win, sincere cooperation.

After hearing this, Wu Xinyu and other senior officials of Wancheng Kingdom did not change their expressions, but their hearts moved.

In fact, they had already considered sending troops to Nan Yuan Continent to occupy new territories.

Why?

Benefits are also benefits.

commercial interests.

In recent years, as Wancheng Country's powerful products have been exported like a tide, it has earned a huge amount of spiritual coins, forming a huge outflow to surrounding continents, absorbing tens of billions of spiritual coins every year.

The extreme imbalance in trade has made it increasingly difficult for Wancheng Country's foreign export business to go from the initial welcome, to later restrictions, to final resistance and hostility from the top management of surrounding continents.

Especially in Nanyuan Continent, many good and evil sects even united and organized professional plundering teams to attack Wancheng Kingdom's caravans and kill Wancheng Kingdom's merchants. Wancheng Kingdom's economic interests suffered heavy losses in Nanyuan Continent.

The volume of foreign exports has shrunk year by year, the country's population has grown too fast, and the inflow of resources has decreased. The country's economic growth has slowed down significantly in recent years, and national living standards have stagnated.

Internal conflicts caused by rising unemployment rates continue to emerge.

So this situation must be improved and a way out must be found!

After thinking about it again and again, it seems that only external expansion can solve the core contradiction.

Hyping up overpopulation and evil cultivators coming from other continents to commit crimes are just excuses. Although they exist, they are far less serious than what is advertised in newspapers.

In addition, Feiyun Mountain took the initiative to come over and expressed its willingness to use all its combat power to help devour Nanyuan Continent. This coincided with the ideas of the leader of the country, Wu Xinyu, and other senior officials.

However, out of consideration for balancing the four major sects, Wu Xinyu also sent people to invite the Taoist ancestors of Qingyun, Guanglei, and Chixing Mountains to the capital city to discuss important matters.

So there was a scene where Wu Xinyu and others were drinking tea while the heads of the four major sects were spitting and arguing fiercely.

This quarrel lasted for four or five days, and finally the matter was successfully negotiated.

The agreement is as follows:

Wan Chengguo sent 50% of its troops and occupied all the mortal cities and minerals.

Feiyun Mountain dispatched 18% of the troops and occupied 40% of the upper reaches of the large spiritual vein of Nanyuan Continent.

Guangleishan sent 14% of its troops and occupied 30% of the middle reaches of Nanyuanzhou's large spiritual veins.

Chixing Mountain dispatched 12% of the troops and occupied 30% of the downstream section of Nanyuanzhou's large spiritual vein.

Qingyun Mountain dispatched 6% of its troops and obtained two larger small spiritual veins in Nanyuan Continent.

The remaining small spiritual vein depends on the losses of each sect in the war of conquest. If a certain sect suffers heavy casualties, this small spiritual vein will be compensated to that sect.

In this way, several power giants in Wancheng have basically reached an agreement.

And after being heated up by the national media, the public support rate for annexing Nanyuanzhou by force has exceeded 90%.

As a result, Wancheng Kingdom, which has quickly entered a state of war preparation and mobilization, is about to reveal its sharp fangs and transform into a ferocious giant beast.

Zhou Ming held his hands and watched all this secretly.
