Yatai Policy: The New Order of the Mainland

Chapter 929 A Reprimand (Part 1)

"Sigh! Dai Yun appears humble, but he is actually quite shrewd. He and Miao Qingfeng complement each other perfectly and are a good match. Unfortunately, both of them are prone to overthinking and lack decisiveness. I really don't understand why Qinuo, with his current strength, has anything to fear from McCann!" In the crowd, Qiu Yuanshan, the leader of the Shadow Clan, put his arm around his wife Yuan Yao's shoulder and sighed leisurely.

“You only need to be responsible for the few thousand people, young and old, in the Shadow organization, but every decision they make is related to the future of hundreds of millions of people. It’s only natural to consider things more carefully! On the contrary, our departure without saying goodbye this time is tantamount to cutting off the fuel supply. I still feel uneasy about it now!” Yuan Yao patted her husband’s strong arm and replied helplessly.

They had previously led a task force comprised of Shadow and Kino's elite troops to assist Dura in stabilizing the situation in Vaharata, making rapid progress and achieving enormous rewards with minimal losses. The unexpected good news was that Dura would ultimately become the new leader of Vaharata.

However, disagreements arose at this time.

Qiu Yuanshan ultimately distrusted Dura and suggested using poison to control him, but the Kino representative vehemently opposed this approach, arguing that it would be tantamount to resorting to any means necessary, just like McCann. Frustratingly, Kino's official channels subsequently issued orders rejecting Qiu Yuanshan's suggestion.

Thus, the Shadow Boss, who already harbored resentment towards Kino, stormed off in a fit of rage, declaring that he would never serve his former employer again.

However, Qiu Yuanshan and Yuan Yao could not let go of the safety of Yatai Continent, and with Qiu Dun's persistent pleas, they decided to come to the peace conference in Ma Se to see what was going on, and sent their son to find Mai Sang's whereabouts.

Although they were also standing on the south side of the open field, they squeezed among the general public watching the spectacle, deliberately keeping their distance from the representatives of the various factions in the Kino camp.

Dai Yun's casual remarks sparked a murmur of discussion among the audience. Indeed, McCain, who has always touted freedom, equality, and justice, has become increasingly arrogant in recent years, frequently using his overwhelming power to arbitrarily suppress other countries, even his allies, revealing his true nature of power politics and bullying.

In the past, apart from Ruhr and Chino, most countries dared not speak out against the oppression of the Mackenzie, and many even became accomplices. After all, survival was far more important than saving face, and besides, they could often get a share of the leftovers from the boss!
Today, McCain's ambition to take over the entire continent of Yatai is now blatantly obvious. This is completely different from previous local conflicts and frictions, and it directly concerns the life and death of various countries and forces. Everyone is well aware of this.

So what should we do?
Even among the nominally allied nations, most factions remained hesitant, hoping that the struggle between Ruhr and Chino would deter McKen and give them a chance to survive. This was the fundamental reason they actively participated in the peace conference—to witness firsthand who was stronger and to provide a basis for their final choice.

But reality is harsh. The peace conference has been going on for three days. Even though most people hope to maintain the status quo, judging from the previous situation, it is likely that McCain will still dominate and do whatever he wants.

Because Chino's counterattack was short-lived, he only brought a delegation of 100 people and remained silent on the spot, not expressing his own opinions. He even remained silent about the betrayal of Vaharata, who had just formed an alliance with him, by declaring that he would remain neutral. How could he have any intention of continuing to compete with McCann?
Although Ruhr had won over some neighboring countries, it was still internally weak and no longer as powerful as before. Otherwise, why would no country that had submitted to it have been willing to lend a hand in its verbal dispute with Macken, leaving only old man Yonezu to perform a one-man show from beginning to end?
In this delicate atmosphere, Dai Yun finally spoke. His words were like a glimmer of hope, and after a few words of discussion, everyone held their breath and waited for McCann's response.

"Now is the time for action! Can sitting in a chair and doing nothing resolve the conflicts on the continent of Yatai and bring peace to the world? Besides, we all voluntarily follow McCann and respect and admire General Atesban from the bottom of our hearts. Just as children must follow the proper manners and etiquette towards their elders, how can we sit on equal footing and disrupt the rules?!" Vardon's loud shout shocked the entire audience.

"Shameless..." Most people felt extremely embarrassed and cursed inwardly, but dared not show any abnormality on their faces. Some even nodded in agreement against their conscience.

"She's at least in her forties or fifties, yet she calls a twenty-something-year-old lad 'elder.' Doesn't she feel embarrassed? It's disgusting!" A female representative from a small country in the Ruhr camp couldn't help but mutter under her breath. "Bang!" Suddenly, something unexpected happened.

Everyone only saw a blur before their eyes as a figure suddenly entered the Ruhr camp, delivering a powerful flaming palm strike to the female representative's chest.

The poor woman didn't even have time to scream before she was reduced to a pile of charred remains in the flames.

Wow! Putting aside the sheer difficulty of accurately locating a target in a crowd, the attacker's skill and power displayed in that single move alone demonstrate his formidable cultivation. Keep in mind, anyone representing the nation at this level is at least a peak mid-to-high-level expert, yet he died without even a chance to dodge. The opponent's skill is unimaginable!

"Leave your life behind!" Yonezu was furious when he saw this and was about to make a move, but one of the men behind him had already leaped out.

"Boom boom boom!" Three explosions rang out in succession, and blue and red lights shone brightly. The attacker used the momentum of the last move to fly back and return to McCann's camp.

"You dare to assassinate a national representative in such a setting? You think Ruhr is weak and incompetent? And yet you dare not confront this old woman directly?!" The speaker was an elderly woman of about seventy years old, Skaya, one of the first members of the Ruhr secret organization Gruul and a subordinate of Mizin. This high-level water-elemental master of the advanced Azure Ocean realm was known for her skill in assassination and sneak attacks, but she had been killed right under someone's nose, so she was naturally furious.

“I don’t know if there are any people in Ruhr, but I do know that those who come out to put on a show are all old guys who are about to die! But I just want you to understand one thing: anyone who dares to insult McCann or disrespect Marshal Ettusban will suffer the same fate as that woman!” The attacker was a young man of medium build and unremarkable appearance, who spoke with an arrogant and confident tone.

“If you can provoke him into fighting me, I have a 70% chance of killing him! In this situation, Rulz cannot retreat!” Skaya turned to Mizin and transmitted her voice.

"Commander, what do you think..." As the representative of the Ruhr camp's fighting force, Mizin had already lost face by allowing the enemy to commit atrocities right before his eyes, and naturally wanted nothing more than to capture the attackers. However, he dared not make the decision on his own and asked Valoja in a low voice for instructions.

Faced with the sudden conflict, Mr. Ruhr’s Foreign Minister remained calm and composed. His gaze was deep, and he inadvertently glanced at Etesban of the opposing camp.

A moment later, Valodya suddenly shouted at Etesban, "You condoned your subordinates' violence and caused a bloody scene at the peace conference. I need an explanation."

"Charlie Joe, did you hear that? Someone needs to be dealt with. Can you do this again?" To everyone's surprise, Etesban didn't waste any words and directly gave his subordinates the order to fight.

Daiyun: They've already started fighting?
