He finally realized what was happening.

Everything illogical, all the variables, all pointed to this seemingly harmless young man in front of them.

Su Yun shrugged, not answering his question, but thoughtfully took out a pack of tissues from her pocket, pulled one out and handed it to him: "Wipe your nose, look at you, you're so touched you're practically snotting up. Don't worry, we Longxia people value reciprocity. You've given us such a generous gift, we'll definitely return the favor."

Old Ross didn't take the tissue.

Because at that very moment, the previously silent communication channel suddenly erupted into chaos.

"Report! Good news from Jiangsu Province!"

A messenger who had been wearing a long face was now beaming with joy, running towards the lake like a man who had just passed the imperial examination, holding up a telegram: "Amazing! Absolutely amazing! All the toxins in Taihu Lake have been transformed! The red tide that filled the lake disappeared instantly, and the water is so clear you can drink it directly! And..."

The correspondent, catching his breath and his face flushed, said, "And the fish in Taihu Lake have gone mad! They've all turned into golden-scaled fish, bigger than pigs, and they're leaping over the dragon gate in droves! Biological experts on the spot identified them as high-grade spiritual energy ingredients; one bite can increase your cultivation level for half a month, even more nourishing than ginseng!"

"And Henan Province too!" another correspondent chimed in, "Tens of thousands of acres of wheat in Zhoukou that had failed to yield a harvest... they've survived! They've all survived! Not only have they survived, but they're a golden expanse, and the ears of wheat are as big as clubs, with each grain as big as a fingertip! Agricultural experts in the fields are crying their eyes out, insisting they've witnessed a miracle!"

One after another, good news emerged like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

The anticipated famine, plague, and extinction did not occur.

Instead, an ecological explosion covering half of Longxia occurred!

Upon hearing these reports, Old Ross made a series of "hoho" sounds, like a broken bellows, and then his eyes rolled back as he fainted from anger.

He was truly enraged.

In his entire life, he's always been the one scheming against others in business and conspiring. When has he ever been made a fool of like this? This is pure aid to the enemy! Even if he goes to hell, he'll still jump up and slap himself in the face.

"Tsk, what poor mental fortitude."

Su Yun shook her head, straightened up, and the smile on her face slowly faded.

He turned his head, his gaze passing over the bustling capital city, over the rolling mountains, and towards the far west.

His gaze seemed to pierce through mountains and rivers, looking at the source of evil that was still continuously supplying "poisonous gas." In his eyes, these were countless black lines of cause and effect, connecting the purple clouds in the sky with the other side of the ocean.

"Since you're so generous, I can't appear stingy."

Su Yun's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cold and sharp smile.

At this very moment, his concept of "Qingnang Heaven and Earth" is still operating at full power. This is not a one-way reception; since it is to transform, it must follow a yin-yang cycle, with give and take.

Where does the toxic gas in the sky come from? We must return this "transformed" blessing to others, following the atmospheric circulation and the lines of cause and effect, in double measure.

"It is impolite not to reciprocate."

Su Yun silently recited in his heart.

【Qingnang Tiandi: Against the Current】

……

Meanwhile, thousands of kilometers away from Longxia.

Deep underground, the atmosphere in the cyber laboratory had shifted from initial fervor to deathly silence.

A cold blue light illuminated countless complex and precise instruments, and a huge holographic screen floated in the air. The "doctor," wearing a white lab coat and holding a cup of coffee, had already dropped his coffee cup on the ground, and the scalding brown liquid spilled onto his expensive crocodile leather shoes, but he was completely unaware.

His face, usually so intellectual and aloof, was now filled with an expression of disbelief and blankness.

On the holographic screen, the data graph representing the Longxia region should have been a lifeless gray-black. But now, the vital signs index on it was skyrocketing at an almost vertical angle, the red curve like a mad horse, directly piercing the top edge of the screen!

"This is impossible...this is absolutely impossible!"

The doctor lunged at the control panel, his voice shrill with shock: "The desolation is irreversible! It's locked in at the genetic level! How could it possibly become a catalyst? This isn't scientific! It violates the law of conservation of matter!"

"Alarm! Alarm!"

The cold, mechanical synthesized voice suddenly became rapid and shrill, and the lights in the entire laboratory instantly turned a dangerous red.

"Unknown energy backflow detected! High-dimensional concept intrusion detected!"

"Target locked: The life-giving heart!"

"Warning! The other party is forcibly rewriting the virus attributes! Backflow pressure is too high! The exhaust valve is about to overload!"

The doctor's pupils contracted sharply.

He turned abruptly and looked at the huge glass pillar.

The once powerfully beating giant mutated heart was now convulsing violently, as if it had encountered something terrifying. It stopped spewing out poisonous gas and instead began to contract wildly inward, as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand.

The black tubes connecting to the heart made a teeth-grinding "creaking" sound, and the tube walls bulged due to the immense reverse pressure.

"No...stop! Stop now!"

Realizing something, the doctor rushed towards the emergency shut-off switch like a madman.

It's the power from Longxia's side!

That damned Eastern country not only digested the virus, but even reversed the rules of this "transformation" along the cause-and-effect relationship!

It's like two people facing off. The doctor was spraying poisonous water with a high-pressure water gun, but the other side blocked the water pipe and added a super booster pump.

Now, all the pressure in the pipe has been released!

"Snap!"

Before the doctor's hand even touched the lever, a crack had already appeared on the huge glass column.

Followed by.

"boom--!!!"

A deep, booming sound echoed from deep underground.

The giant heart, three meters in diameter, finally could not withstand the immense life-transforming force from this ancient Eastern country and exploded with a deafening roar!

But this explosion is not destruction, but distortion.

The toxins, forcibly transformed into "highly concentrated life essence," filled the entire enclosed underground base at this moment.

The colorful pipes burst instantly, spewing out countless strange liquids that flooded the entire laboratory.

"Aaaaaaah!"

The doctor let out a scream; he was the closest and was instantly drenched in the terrifying mixture.

But he did not die.

Under the influence of this abnormally high concentration of life energy, which was originally highly toxic but was now extremely violent, his body began to undergo terrifying changes.

His skin swelled like an inflating balloon, his blood vessels bulged like earthworms, and his bones crackled and popped. His once refined face was twisted and deformed, and his muscle fibers seemed to come alive, tearing through his clothes and multiplying wildly.

"It hurts...it hurts so much!!"

The doctor rolled on the ground, but the fear in his eyes, amidst this extreme pain, gradually transformed into a deeper, purer madness.

He felt power.

This "gift" that originally belonged to Long Xia was so large and violent that it turned him into a monster.

"Power...is this the end of evolution...?"

The doctor lay on the ground, his body covered in slime, and slowly raised his head.

The glasses were long gone, and his eyes were now a deathly white, without pupils, only endless madness.

The staff around were screaming in agony. Under the impact of this energy, some of them were directly blown into blood mist, while others were turned into mindless, fleshy monsters.

The entire base was instantly transformed into a living hell.

But the doctor was laughing.

As he vomited blood, he tremblingly pulled a blood-stained, ancient silver cross from his pocket.

The cross has an ancient design, but instead of an image of Jesus' crucifixion, it is entwined with a ferocious ouroboros.

"Shennong... Traditional Chinese Medicine... Ha, hahaha..."

The doctor's voice became rough and hoarse, like two pieces of sandpaper rubbing together. He crawled laboriously toward the pile of heart fragments and plunged the crucifix in his hand hard into the still writhing, highly active mass of rotting flesh.

"You think... this is how you win?"

"You have merely... awakened true terror."

As the cross was inserted, a holy white beam of light, so pure it sent shivers down one's spine, instantly pierced through hundreds of meters of rock and shot straight into the sky.

The doctor knelt before the pillar of light, his arms, which had turned into claws, spread out, his face filled with the fanaticism and piety of a martyr.

"Longxia, since you don't want to accept the new world..."

"Then get ready..."

"Let us welcome God's return!!"

Within the pillar of light, there seemed to be a figure dressed in a pure white robe, radiating a holy light, slowly opening its eyes.
