The Guo family, the Xian Clan, the Herbal Clan, and the Art Clan had made such a big move because they wanted to pressure Old Master Bao, Marquis Wuming, and Qin Lang into making concessions. This way, these people would be able to "share the benefits".
However, these people had obviously miscalculated. They did not expect Old Master Bao and his group to be so strong-willed. Instead of compromising with them, they chose to directly announce the truth.
Needless to say, before the truth was announced, there was indeed some unrest in society. This was because there were always some people in this world who wished for the world to be in chaos. These people were best at fanning the flames and creating terror. However, when the government chose to announce the truth to the public, the fear and uneasiness in many people's hearts lessened. After all, it was now the information age. Human technology had already reached the moon, Mars, and other places. The era of space was beginning to appear. Moreover, various sci-fi movies and novels had also paved the way for many people in the modern world. It made people subconsciously accept the fact that ETs and UFOs might exist.
Therefore, it has to be said that this time, Old Master Bao and his group's risky strategy was successful. In addition, after the news was released, more videos and photos of the otherworld creatures were released on the Internet and television, so that those who were interested could have a deeper understanding of these otherworld creatures.
In addition, there was also news that the 9th Military District of Xinwei was working with some science and technology exhibition centers and universities to prepare an exhibition of the corpses of some otherworld creatures. If possible, some living otherworld creatures would be displayed in front of the public in the future.
The latter ideas were actually thought of by Qin Lang. Since Old Master Bao and his group were willing to go this far, Qin Lang felt that it was not easy. However, since they had already done it, they might as well do it thoroughly. Therefore, Qin Lang also came up with this idea. He suggested that Old Master Bao and his group should simply turn the people's fear into interest.
Needless to say, this move of Qin Lang's was really effective. Perhaps it was because many people in this society were under too much pressure, so they needed a place to vent their stress. Something that could arouse and release their stress. In the past, many people vented their stress on corrupt officials and foreign hostile forces, but this kind of thing had been going on for decades, and everyone seemed to be tired. Now that something new had finally appeared, it was enough to divert everyone's attention.
With the attention shifted, the conflict shifted as well. At first, many citizens were dissatisfied with the government's decision to keep the news under wraps. They thought that the government would choose to refute the rumors, which would lead to more dissatisfaction and anger. Who knew that in the end, the government would openly and thoroughly announce the news, even preparing to release the relevant information and specimens of these otherworld creatures.
The open announcement of the news naturally quelled the anger of the majority of the people. However, it also completely offended the group of people who started it. The Guo family, the Eminent Clan, the Technique Clan, and the Medicine Clan had spent so much effort just to use the anger of the people to give Qin Lang, Old Master Bao, and the others a piece of the action. However, now that the situation had reached this point, the majority of the people's anger had been quelled, and these people who had been playing tricks in the dark had not received any benefits.
The bargaining chips had been lost, so naturally, there was no need to talk anymore. However, based on Qin Lang's understanding of these people, they were not likely to let the matter rest. So, Qin Lang had wisely strengthened the security of the ninth district of the Xinwei military. Most importantly, he had increased the number of experts, not giving these people any chance at all.
"Qin Lang …"
This was Fang Hongyue's voice. Her voice was filled with excitement, even though she looked a little disheveled. There were some holes in her clothes, which seemed to have been caused by a blunt object.
Without a doubt, Fang Hongyue's group had gained a lot from entering the netherworld. It was their first time entering the ghost cave and they had gained such a harvest. It could be considered a good start. Of course, now that the netherworld had White Shade City as a base, they could both attack and defend. Moreover, as long as they paid the right price in White Shade City, they could rent or buy powerful armors and weapons. In terms of safety, it was much better than when Qin Lang and the others had first entered.
Of course, the most important thing was that Fang Hongyue and the others had benefited from Qin Lang in advance. Moreover, Qin Lang had also shared with her a lot of key information about the netherworld, including the characteristics of the many netherworld creatures in the vicinity of White Shade City.
With so many advantages, Fang Hongyue and the elite disciples of the Six Doors could naturally have a good start and a great harvest, unless her luck was too bad. However, it seemed that Fang Hongyue's luck was not bad. At this moment, she was showing Qin Lang the spoils of war she had gained.
Fang Hongyue was definitely not a frivolous person, so Qin Lang knew that she definitely wasn't just showing off in front of him. There should be something else. As a result, Qin Lang patiently waited for her to continue. As expected, after she showed off the spoils of war, Fang Hongyue asked Qin Lang with a serious expression, "How do you know so much?"
"Know what?" Qin Lang replied with a question.
"The matters of the wormhole, the netherworld, and the Southern Sea." Fang Hongyue stared at Qin Lang in astonishment. "Why do you know these matters better than anyone else, and why are you always able to seize the initiative at the first moment?"
"What do you think?" Qin Lang said with a smile. "Do you think that I'm a prophet who can predict the future?"
"I have indeed suspected this," Fang Hongyue said. "However, the future should be unpredictable. Is there anyone in the Dragon Snake troop who can predict the future? "
"Regrettably, there isn't anyone who can predict the future. At most, there are some who can use some divination arts to predict good or bad luck. However, martial artists like you and I basically have some sense towards good or bad luck, so this isn't all that surprising. Also, the reason why I can seize the initiative is because there are very few restrictions on me. For example, the Dragon Snake troop, even though they are a troop with relatively greater freedom in the military, there are still restrictions on their freedom. For example, your Six Doors Gate, even though you have great authority, you are still restricted by the rules of the sect. However, I am different. The sect and other powers cannot restrict me, so once I make a decision, I can immediately take action. I don't need to ask for anyone's permission, nor do I need to worry about anyone. This way, I can naturally seize the initiative. "
Qin Lang explained patiently, and then asked, "Fang Hongyue, what does this have to do with you and Six Doors Gate?"
"It actually isn't that important. However, since you can seize the initiative in everything, then I want to know, how confident are you in dealing with the disaster that might happen in the future? "Fang Hongyue asked this question seriously.
