"It's not just these club presidents; Na Du Tong has completely gone mad. According to our remaining intelligence points, all the elite combat forces in the major regions, in coordination with the military, are heading towards our Yao Xing Society under the guise of counter-terrorism exercises."

"Also, we don't know when, but the residential areas around our building have been evacuated. Now the entire headquarters of Yaoxing Society is completely surrounded, with riot control armored vehicles and military vehicles everywhere downstairs! President... we are surrounded!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the lights in the entire headquarters building of Yaoxing Society suddenly flickered wildly a few times, and then went out completely with a "snap". The hum of the air conditioner stopped abruptly, the floor indicator lights in the elevator went dark, the power supply to the building was cut off, and the surroundings were instantly plunged into darkness.

Immediately afterwards, beams of blindingly bright searchlights, typical of military helicopters, pierced through the floor-to-ceiling windows, illuminating Qu Tong's office as if it were daytime. The beams of light crisscrossed and overlapped in the dark office, illuminating every corner.

"Boom boom boom—"

The deafening roar of the helicopter rotors raged wildly outside the rooftop windows, making the floor-to-ceiling glass vibrate.

Qu Tong stood at the center of the converging light, her expression strangely calm.

The voice of Zhao Fangxu, the head of NaDuTong, came through the high-powered loudspeaker outside:

"Qu Tong, president of Yaoxing Society, you are suspected of organizing and planning a major crime that endangers national security. You are now completely surrounded. Give up resistance and come downstairs immediately for questioning."

"I'll repeat myself: Anyone who resists, kill them on the spot!"

The loudspeaker's sound echoed through the night sky, while below the building, the faint, extremely excited, and twisted laughter of Xiao Zizai, a temporary worker from East China, could be heard transmitted via radio:

"Chairman Zhao... can I really enjoy a feast tonight? Before Senior Duanmu treats my illness, can I really have one more time to relax?"

Qu Tong walked step by step to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the densely packed, heavily armed riot control vehicles and elite alien troops below the building.

Her gaze swept past all the gun barrels and armored vehicles, past the heavily armed soldiers, past the flashing police lights, and finally fixed on a woman whose temperament and demeanor perfectly matched the image Qu Tong had imagined countless times deep in her memory.

The moment their eyes met, a tear unexpectedly slid down Qu Tong's cheek. It was a feeling of satisfaction, like finally seeing the beginning again after exhausting one's entire life and traversing countless years.

"Senior Duanmu, I'm so glad to finally meet you."

Chapter 161 To All Humanity in the World (4100)

As soon as Zhao Fangxu's cold words fell, the state apparatus began its strangulation.

"beat!!!"

The moment the order to launch the general offensive exploded on the radio, the coordination mechanism between Nadotong and the regular army was pushed to its limit in an instant!

"BOOM BOOM BOOM—!!!"

There were no traditional duels in the martial arts world, no unnecessary words, and they immediately switched to anti-terrorism mode, using armor-piercing shells and heavy artillery shells to clear the area first.

Then, blinding flares and stun grenades exploded in the night sky, illuminating every corner of the building as if it were daytime.

"Go! Group one, block the elevator; Group two, take the emergency exits; Group three, infiltrate through the fire escape... Anyone who resists, kill them on the spot!"

Inside the command vehicle, Zhao Fangxu, the head of NaDuTong, was practically roaring as he issued orders. The humiliation of the company being infiltrated would all be washed away with blood in this building!

On one side, a large number of the most elite combat superhumans from Na Du Tong poured in through the gap like a black tide.

On one side were heavily armed and fully equipped troops. The sound of combat boots stepping on broken glass, accompanied by the cold creaking of mechanical bolts, combined to create a suffocating symphony of death.

After a barrage of attacks, some die-hard loyalists remained inside the Yaoxing Society building, deeply brainwashed and even had their perceptions altered by Qu Tong's Double-Handed Technique over the years. Their eyes were bloodshot, and they emanated an almost insane, violent aura. Fearlessly, they surged down through various safety exits, elevators, and even ventilation ducts. Some carried high-level refining tools, while others chanted strange incantations, attempting to use their extraordinary abilities to stop the onslaught.

But tonight they are facing overwhelming state-level violence and modern tactics that disregard all rules of the underworld.

Those die-hard loyalists who charged forward didn't even have time to see the enemy's faces before they were met with a barrage of heavy firepower. Under the combined onslaught of official superhuman forces, modern tactics, and heavy weaponry, all the Yaoxing Society's resistance fighters became lambs to the slaughter.

"Hahaha! This is awesome!! I've never felt this good in all my years of life!!"

Xiao Zizai's suit had already been torn to shreds in the instant his true qi surged. At this moment, Xiao Zizai's eyes had turned completely bloodshot, the bloodlust in them almost overflowing. He was completely immersed in this officially endorsed and perfectly legal feast of slaughter.

The Compassionate Hand and the Dragon Claw Hand frantically plowed the ground in the narrow corridor.

Just as one of the extraordinary individuals from the Shining Star Society was about to chant an incantation to activate his magical artifact, Xiao Zizai suddenly took a step forward.

"boom!"

The solid concrete ground collapsed under his foot, and Xiao Zizai's figure instantly transformed into a blood-red afterimage too fast for the naked eye to see. His dragon claw hand shot out with a shrill whooshing sound, accurately gripping the opponent's neck.

"Snap!!"

That was the crisp sound of cervical vertebrae being crushed. Xiao Zizai directly used brute force to snap the other person's neck. Before the other person's eyes could bulge out and he could even scream, he swung his heavy, merciful hand back and slammed it solidly into the chest of another strange person who rushed up!

"puff--"

The strange man was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, his chest strangely caved in deeply, and he vomited out pieces of his internal organs while still in mid-air.

"Awesome!!! I'm going to really have some serious sex tonight!!!"

Xiao Zizai raised his hand, using his blood-stained fingertips to push up his blood-stained glasses. He laughed maniacally as he trampled over the carnage and severed limbs scattered on the ground. He even began to mumble incoherent Buddhist chants of salvation as he leaped into the crowd.

On the other side, Wang Zhenqiu, Lao Meng, Hei Guan, Chen Duo, and the elites of Na Du Tong remained silent, their tactical coordination impeccable. The troops fired, finished off the attackers, suppressed them, and advanced. In less than ten minutes, the entire defensive line of the Yaoxing Society headquarters building, from the first floor to the top floor, was violently torn apart and completely flattened.

Finally, a loud "boom" resounded.

The heavy mahogany door to Qu Tong's office was kicked to pieces by Xiao Ziyi, and countless wood chips mixed with gunpowder smoke filled the hall.

Faced with this overwhelming encirclement that could easily instill despair, Qu Tong, sitting behind the mahogany table, showed not a trace of panic on her face. Her gaze went straight past the cold gun barrels and the menacing temporary workers, fixing intently and fanatically on Duanmu Ying, who was walking forward.

"Pfft!!"

Without any hesitation, the mysterious club president, who had been plotting to manipulate events, suddenly collapsed to her knees before Duanmu Ying. Head tilted back, she was in a near-frenzied state of worship, shouting at Duanmu Ying with extreme fervor:

"Senior Duanmu!! Did you see that?! I didn't ruin your seed! I survived! I did it! I've prepared everything for the new world!!"

Duanmu Ying quietly looked at Qu Tong, who was kneeling on the ground and whose body was trembling violently due to extreme excitement. She then glanced at the secret room in the office, which was covered with various reports, clippings, and even black and white photos of Jiang Zhen.

At that moment, a complex emotion welled up in Duanmu Ying's heart that she couldn't describe.

It was shock, it was bewilderment—how could there be so many photos of Jiang Zhen? But more than anything, it was a sigh from a doctor. She never imagined that the life she had saved years ago out of a doctor's duty would, decades later, turn into a madman who would turn the entire mainland upside down.

But soon, Duanmu Ying's keen medical intuition and understanding of the Shuangquan Hand technique allowed her to immediately notice the abnormality in Qu Tong's body. Duanmu Ying's expression changed drastically, and she rushed forward, decisively grasping Qu Tong's somewhat cold pulse. The deep blue true qi of the Shuangquan Hand technique surged into her body.

This discovery shocked Duanmu Ying, a true master of the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, so much that her eyes widened in astonishment and she cried out in disbelief:

"You...you split your soul apart?! This is soul severing! Every second is like having your soul roasted on a fire, an excruciating pain worse than death! You madman! How many times have you split it?! In other words...the one standing here isn't your complete self at all?! No wonder I always felt you were somewhat unsteady?!"

Duanmu Ying's voice was filled with disbelief. She knew all too well how inhuman the torment of having one's soul severed was; it meant living one's entire life in hell.

Qu Tong looked up, smiled, and shook her head:

“Senior Duanmu, you are mistaken… This is my true form. To be able to meet you today is such a sacred and important event. How could I, Qu Tong, dare to defile your eyes with those incomplete clones? My core, my true essence, energy, and spirit, are all here.”

Duanmu Ying's brows furrowed deeply, her confusion deepening: "If the souls you cut out weren't meant to be used as clones to save your own life, what's the point of scattering them? Don't tell me you're just hurting yourself for fun!"

Qu Tong slowly raised her head, facing the blinding searchlight of the military helicopter outside the window. The fervor and obsession in her eyes erupted like a volcano suppressed for decades, her voice rising in excitement:

“Senior Duanmu…the souls I cut out were never for self-preservation…those fragments that are painful to you are sparks to me! Trials!”

"That's right, this is a trial!"

"I transformed them into the most hidden seeds and scattered them to every corner of the world... just to wait for this moment! Just to wait for the moment when Chief Jiang leads the new world back!!"

"Since the rules of this world are wrong, and since all the countries in the world want to erase the existence of Jiang Gang Leader, then I will use my own methods to make everyone in the world remember his name on the same day!!"

The moment the words left her mouth, Qu Tong suddenly tilted her head back, her hair flying wildly in the still office!

In that instant, her eyes completely lost their human clarity and emotion, turning into a chilling, pure, deathly blue. Two beams of blue light shot out from her pupils as if they were tangible, forcing the elite warriors of the Na Du Tong around her to retreat.

"boom----!!!!!"

An indescribable surge of Qi, like a tangible deep blue tsunami, burst forth from Qu Tong's petite body! The Qi possessed no physical attack power; it did not smash tables and chairs, nor did it repel guns, but it carried an unparalleled and terrifying penetrating power of the mind!

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by a buzzing sound that seemed to come from the depths of the soul, this deep blue wave of energy shattered all the floor-to-ceiling windows on the top floor in an instant, transforming into an incredibly thick blue stream of light that broke through the smoke and soared straight into the heavens!

At the same time, strange things happened across the mainland, across the ocean, and even the whole world in that one second.

For decades, all of Qu Tong's countless fragments of soul that had infiltrated and split off through the Yaoxing Society's news network and folk channels for saving and treating people, all sensed the frenzied burning of the main body's core at the same second.

Her divided souls multiplied into countless fragments and traveled to all parts of the world. These fragments then secretly planted backdoors deep within the souls of countless people.

Such a massive amount was something she never dared to imagine—after all, the overwhelming torrent of humanitarian will could overwhelm her in an instant, but she actually succeeded. The humanitarian will did not attack her, and instead, it autonomously reduced its influence on her.

This further convinced Qu Tong that this was the world's choice. Although she had succeeded, she couldn't control it; just maintaining it had almost exhausted her. Of course, she never intended to control it.

She shattered her own soul, enduring decades of living hell, every moment, just so that today, in this one minute, she could convey a single message to the world.

"boom--!!"

Countless backdoors to the souls of ordinary people and extraordinary individuals around the world, hidden in their minds, are instantly activated!

A powerful spiritual resonance was unleashed, sweeping across the globe, and even those who hadn't been tricked by Qu Tong into joining in.

At this moment, whether it was an ordinary white-collar worker burning the midnight oil in China, a top member of parliament sitting around a round table on the other side of the ocean, or a big shot in the castle of Europa—the consciousness of billions of people, without warning, converged on her, with their scattered souls around the world as nodes.

It was as if they were being tightly bound by an invisible blue thread that ran through the entire earth. Their spirits were forcibly pulled and entangled into a boundless, white, and vast space of consciousness by an irresistible spiritual force as vast as the ocean.

This sudden miracle, which transcends human technology and mythological understanding, has plunged billions of people around the world, whether awake or asleep, into unprecedented hysteria and extreme panic!

"What the hell is this place?! Why am I here?!"

"My God! Is this a miracle?! Or have aliens invaded my brain?!"

"Why can't I move my true qi?! Who's plotting against me? Show yourself!!"

In a vast, boundless space of consciousness, a cacophony of languages ​​and accents, mingled with screams, roars, cries, and shouts of utter terror, filled the air. The mental fluctuations of billions converged, creating a cacophony akin to the true arrival of apocalypse. All order vanished in that instant, and everyone was gripped by extreme panic.

Until, a cold, fanatical, yet clearly penetrating deep into everyone's minds, a voice drowned out all the noise. That voice, in an absolute tone, proclaimed to the world:

To all ordinary people in the world, and to all those who consider themselves extraordinary:

I am Qu Tong, and I am also an Outcast. At this moment, I am using my dual-wielding hands and global consciousness nodes to simultaneously announce to billions of consciousnesses that the wall separating 'Outcasts' from 'Mortals' will be completely torn down starting today.

The supernatural forces you fear, crave, and curse have never truly disappeared from the past to the present. They have merely been hidden in the shadows of history, maintained by layers of false lies and suppression, preserving a pathetic and fragile balance of order!

You wrestled and humiliated each other in the mire, you shed your tears in injustice and discrimination... But things will change, because in this world—a true king stands.

He is not a mythical illusion, nor a baseless rumor meant to fool the masses.

He was the 'Emperor of the Sea', who dominated his era and made the whole world tremble all by himself!

All the wars, famines, discrimination, injustices, and oppressions in this world are not due to the inherent evil of human nature, but rather because there is no chain heavy enough and strong enough to cut off all the claws of greed.

Now he has arrived; he is here in this world!

All the armies of all nations, all the conspiracies of all organizations, and all the clan feuds of all the extraordinary individuals—from this moment on, they will all unconditionally submit to the laws of the Sea Emperor!

Those who disobey, no matter who you are, how many troops you have, or how many people you have, will be wiped out by the absolute power of the new world until the world is unified!

This is not a negotiation.

It's not a threat.
