Jiang Chen walked behind Xie Yulan and massaged her shoulders.
"Spill it. You're being so attentive, there must be something you want, right?"
Xie Yulan knew her son too well. Being so attentive now definitely meant he wanted something.
"Ahem, you're still as sharp-eyed as ever, Mom." Jiang Chen coughed twice.
"That's because I know you. You wouldn't remember your mom if you didn't need anything." Xie Yulan glanced at Jiang Chen.
"How could that be? In my heart, Mom, you're the most important person. Even if I forget Dad, I can't forget you!" Jiang Chen quickly said.
"Hurry up and tell me what it is."
Xie Yulan stood up and gently tapped Jiang Chen's head.
"Don't worry, as long as it's something you ask for, I won't refuse you."
With her doting love for Jiang Chen, Xie Yulan would certainly not refuse him, no matter what he came for.
"People from various countries have already started to back down. You must know about it, right, Mom?"
"Yes, I know."
Jiang Yuan had told her about this, so Xie Yulan naturally knew.
"You're not planning to let them off, are you?"
"How could I? I didn't let them off when they backed down before, so why would I let them off this time?"
Although Jiang Chen wasn't sending Divine Beasts to cause destruction anymore, it didn't mean Jiang Chen was just going to let it go.
"I came here to ask for your help, Mom."
Afterward, Jiang Chen explained his plan to Xie Yulan.
After murmuring for more than ten minutes, Xie Yulan nodded, finally understanding what Jiang Chen meant.
To put it bluntly, it was a 727 threat.
"Just leave this to me. Now, the Jiang Corporation is doing well in other countries, and at least no one dares to provoke us."
Before, almost all of the Jiang Corporation's overseas business was ruined. However, everything changed after Jiang Chen ruthlessly sent out the Divine Beasts.
By now, no one dared to provoke the Jiang Corporation; they even tried to curry favor with them.
Subsequently, overseas, the Jiang Corporation used its name to release footage of the battles between Rayquaza and Regigigas.
These things were not a secret to the upper echelons, but ordinary people had no idea.
"Oh my gosh, what kind of magical creature is this? It's so powerful!"
"Didn't you read the introduction? This is a Divine Beast, possessing the power to easily destroy a country."
"Is that black snake-shaped magical creature called Rayquaza? This kind of Divine Beast, which humans can't possibly fight against, was actually subdued? Is that Jiang Chen's magical creature? Did I see that right?"
"It's long been rumored that the trainer named Jiang Chen controls a Divine Beast. It's even rumored that the disasters we've experienced were caused by that Jiang Chen commanding the Divine Beasts."
"Didn't those people say it was just a natural disaster?"
"Haha, they were the ones who said Jiang Chen commanded the Divine Beasts before, and then they changed their tune. Can their words be trusted?"
"It's not good! That Huaxia man named Jiang Chen announced that someone in our country slandered him and even sent people to assassinate him. His Divine Beast Rayquaza is extremely indignant and wants revenge for its master."
At first, they just watched it as entertainment. After all, the Huaxia people having a Divine Beast didn't have much to do with them.
But the subsequent events had a huge impact on them. That Divine Beast called Rayquaza possessed the power to easily destroy a country.
They had witnessed that destructive power. Anyone with a bit of intelligence understood that this was no exaggeration; that Rayquaza truly had the ability to destroy a country.
"That Huaxia man named Jiang Chen gave us two choices: either all those involved commit suicide, or Rayquaza will crush us."
"I don't believe he would actually do it."
"Idiot! Don't blame me if you want to die. Don't forget the news that came out before: several cities in our country that were recently destroyed weren't natural disasters, but the work of Divine Beasts."
"Now, the only one who can command Divine Beasts is that Huaxia man named Jiang Chen."
"There's also a list of names. Jiang Chen has issued a final ultimatum to those damn people. If they don't do it within three days, we will die."
"Those damn bastards! Why did they have to provoke a trainer who can subdue Divine Beasts? Now we're all dragged into it!"
"My relatives were in those destroyed cities. Those damn bastards are the ones who caused my relatives to die."
That's how people are; most don't dare to strike at the strong, but instead aim their blades at the weak.
Although those they were aiming at weren't weak now, compared to Jiang Chen, those people were the weak ones.
So, how to choose? There was no need to hesitate for too long.
A roar echoed, shaking the sky. A fierce wind swept through the city below, and a dark figure flew across the sky above the city.
The oppressive feeling brought by the Divine Beast made them immediately prostrate themselves on the ground.
"It's... it's Rayquaza."
A terrified voice rang out. It was Rayquaza that had just flown by. Someone looked up and clearly saw Rayquaza's figure.
That invincible aura (chag) was undoubtedly a Divine Beast.
That's right, it was indeed Rayquaza, and Jiang Chen was riding on Rayquaza's back. Not just Jiang Chen, but Duan Wanqiu, Xiao Luoxue, and Diandian were also on Rayquaza's back.
Originally, Rayquaza was unwilling to carry them, but fortunately, with Jiang Chen there, Rayquaza agreed to let them stand on its back.
"The speed is too fast." Duan Wanqiu said, trembling.
"This is with its speed slowed down. Otherwise, Rayquaza's speed would be even faster."
If Rayquaza didn't slow down, and flew at full speed, the people below wouldn't be able to see its speed clearly, and even satellites in the sky wouldn't be able to capture clear photos of Rayquaza.
"Doing this is to threaten those idiots, right?" Diandian looked at Jiang Chen.
They already understood Jiang Chen's purpose. Jiang Chen had told them his purpose before, so they knew.
"That's right, seeing is believing. Otherwise, no matter how terrifying they say a first-tier god is, they'll still have a Luck mentality." Jiang Chen nodded.
Even if Rayquaza just flew over just now, they would still experience the terror of a first-tier god. That's when things would get interesting.
Actually, if Jiang Chen wanted to kill those people, it would be simple. It's just that Jiang Chen didn't want them to die so easily. Jiang Chen also hoped they could experience what it felt like to be abandoned and become the target of public scorn.
"Becoming your enemy was truly the biggest mistake they ever made," Xiao Luoxue said.
"Indeed, after all, I'm not a good person."
Jiang Chen nodded.
At this moment, Jiang Chen really wanted to see how ugly those people's faces were.
Indeed, their faces were extremely ugly, so dark that water seemed to drip from them. Originally, Jiang Chen didn't let the Divine Beast attack, and they thought the matter was over.
Even if Jiang Chen was furious, he should have calmed down by now. They never expected Jiang Chen to play this long game with them.
In fact, Jiang Chen's anger had indeed subsided, but a subsided anger didn't mean he would let these culprits go.
No matter what, the culprits must die.
"That kid isn't leaving us a way out. Carl, what do you say we do?" Jonathan asked another middle-aged man in the room, his face pale with anger.
"His meaning is very clear. Only if we die can everything be appeased. Let's face death calmly."
Carl's expression was very calm, even with a hint of relief.
"What do you mean? Are you really willing to die?" Jonathan's expression instantly soured when he heard Carl's words.
The United States was the first to order an attack on Jiang Chen, and it was the two of them. Actually, there was another one, but he was already dead. That person was the US champion Aldrich, who was killed by Regigigas's destructive beam.
"Even if we're not willing to die, what way out do you think we have? I've been living exhaustingly these past few days, not even daring to sleep, fearing that I wouldn't wake up once I fell asleep."
He had been anxious before the judgment, but after knowing the outcome, Carl was rather calm.
After witnessing Jiang Chen's ruthless methods, he knew that the other party would not let him go, unless the other party couldn't find him through investigation.
But that was impossible. With Mewtwo around, directly reading memories, it was too easy for the other party to investigate thoroughly. He couldn't hide at all.
Moreover, he had thought he had Jiang Chen cornered before, so he hadn't hidden anything at all. As long as the other party wanted to investigate, they would definitely find him. So, he had been panicking for several days.
But now, he could finally put his panicked heart down. If he couldn't live, he would face death calmly, only hoping not to implicate his family.
