The few spies barely maintained their composure and coldly asked.

"Have you heard of the Fourth Battlefield?

"You will be sent to the Shenchu Corps, then tortured by those prisoners until you are on the brink of death. Finally, you will take the Divine Land's forbidden medicine and become human shields for the Shenchu Corps' charge."

The special ops team showed no expression.

Throughout the Divine Land, even the most heinous prisoners would intensely hate the spies from the Yangxiang Sect.

Once they are thrown into Shenchu City, they will inevitably face inhumane treatment.

Ultimately, their fate would be as human shields.

Although cruel, they brought this upon themselves.

Mu Jingliang and his group stood at the doorway, coldly watching a few reporters being escorted away.

This group of people are the scum of the human race.

"General, there was indeed a spy among the special ops responsible for arranging this undercover operation.

"He fled abroad in advance but was captured by us at the border. Now his cultivation has been sealed, and he is prepared to be escorted to Shenchu City."

At this moment, a young general stepped forward and spoke with a face full of shame.

Fortunately, Su Yue did not transmit the news of the four sacrificial points back to the Zhenqin Corps.

Otherwise, everything would have been in vain.

This was a failure on the part of the Zhenqin Corps.

"Once we've wrapped things up here, all officers above the rank of young general should come for a review.

"Your negligence is simply reckless disregard for human life."

Wang Yetao gritted his teeth.

Fortunately, the spy's knowledge level was not too high; he only knew there were three undercover agents but didn't know exactly who they were.

Otherwise, Su Yue and his team would have already been silenced.

"Understood, General!"

The young general nodded.

"Go, and conduct another internal review of the Zhenqin Corps."

Wang Yetao commanded again.

"Yes!"

The young general nodded and left.

"Prince Tuo, it's been tough for you all. Gazing into the abyss for too long, some people inevitably fall into it.

"The wealth of the Yangxiang Sect is astonishing, and some frustrated martial artists inevitably can't resist the temptation... Alas, human nature is hard to fathom."

Yan Chenyun sighed.

In this matter, it's really hard to blame Wang Yetao for negligence.

Human nature is inherently complicated.

Since there are hot-blooded youths like Su Yue willing to risk their lives to infiltrate the Yangxiang Sect purely for justice and patriotism,

then inevitably there will be selfish martial artists lured by the riches of the Yangxiang Sect.

This is a paradox that even Wang Yetao cannot fathom about human nature.

"Hmph, the reason the Yangxiang Sect can't be completely eradicated is fundamentally due to these shameless small countries. It is they who let the Yangxiang Race smuggle spirit medicines unchecked, amassing vast wealth.

"Hopefully, the Divine Land's cleanup this time will be effective.

"If these small countries' governments continue to be apathetic, turning a blind eye, I, Wang Yetao, will not agree."

Wang Yetao's eyes flashed.

This time, thanks to Su Yue's cleverness, otherwise, all would have been lost.

But we cannot count on being lucky every time.

...

In the diplomatic hall.

The discussion returned to its initial state.

The Divine Land wants a guarantee from each small country, a guarantee that their words hold true.

But the diplomats of these small countries began acting deaf and dumb, bowing their heads and remaining silent.

A guarantee?

What can they guarantee with?

From top to bottom, the government is chaotic, and the aristocracy runs rampant, with their greatest interest being to line their own pockets.

If the government were to reform, the first to be targeted would be these officials.

In small countries.

Officials increase taxes, exploit the lower classes, then remit the taxes to the Divine Land to commission the Wei Yuan Corps to suppress the Wet Ghost Tower.

In contrast, these officials live the most comfortably.

But in recent years, the Yangxiang Sect has been too active in the Divine Land, prompting the Divine Land Government to start paying attention to small countries' illicit concessions to the Yangxiang Race.

Yet those officials accustomed to comfort, who would suddenly give up such enormous benefits.

Engaging in smuggling transactions with the Yangxiang Race allows the officials to gain considerable benefits, at least even nourishing their Qi Blood.

They can only continue in silence.

Previously, the tactic small countries used against the Divine Land was persistent silence, being adamantly stubborn and refusing to talk.

Due to international conventions, the Divine Land cannot interfere in the governance of foreign governments; they can only rant and vent their anger, with maximum compensation from small country governments to conclude the matter.

"So, are you all deciding to remain silent?

"Very well, it seems you have mastered the art of dealing with the Divine Land.

"But I'm sorry, this time the Divine Land will take some substantial measures."

The diplomat sneered.

He knew long ago that these small countries would act this way.

Silence!

Consistent silence, then presenting a compensation plan, ends without any real harm or discomfort.

Instead, it's the ordinary people of the small countries who suffer.

The Divine Land, after receiving this batch of compensation, instead still needs to humanely aid those suffering people.

This makes the Ministry of Foreign Affairs very angry.

"We will expedite the cleanup and provide compensation. Our King will personally call the Divine Cabinet to apologize."

Finally!

One country spoke.

As expected.

The same shameless approach.

"Very well!

"The Divine Land needs this compensation, but this time, the Divine Land wants no money.

"Here is a list of officials from your country involved in smuggling. Your government must immediately execute these people or send them to the Wet Realm Battlefield as human shields.

"Everyone shouldn't worry; each country has its list."

As soon as the words fell.

A list was placed in front of each small country's diplomat.

In fact, investigating such a list is not difficult at all.

In these small countries, the smuggling between officials and the Yangxiang Race is almost an open secret. The Wei Yuan Corps could casually ask a few civilians to get a lot of valid information.

This list is a hundred percent confirmed by the Wei Yuan Corps; not a single wrongful person among them.
