Chapter 22: The Will of the Ancestors

However, this display seemed to further arouse the perverse interest of the person in the shadows.

"Your strength is mediocre, but your temper is quite something. Seeing you like this, are you still hoping for that Ju Hun Jiang?"

He said proudly:

"Let me tell you, the Ju Hun Jiang has long fallen into a trap set by my comrades, probably already..."

Bang!

A deafening crash interrupted the arrogant words of the Xiao Han Min Guo People.

The partition door panel was ripped apart by a heavy blow as if it were paper.

Along with the shattering door, a blood‑smeared head, like an arrow released from a bow, flew through the broken doorway,

propelled by astonishing force; the sight was bizarre and terrifying.

The Xiao Han Min Guo People in the shadows, witnessing this, had their hair stand on end,

staring in disbelief with widened eyes.

"This... this head, how can it be the Toilet Ghost's?!"

At the same time, a feral roar came from within the partition:

"You turtle‑son, how dare you say I am dead!"

The roar thundered like a sudden lightning strike.

A minute later, another blood‑splattered head crashed to the ground with a bang,

the muffled impact echoing in the cramped space, stirring waves of chill.

The face twisted to the extreme, its expression of pain and terror frozen like a statue,

the feared Toilet Ghost, before the Ju Hun Jiang, had not even a shred of resistance and was utterly slain.

The Ju Hun Jiang stood proudly in the pool of blood, the Soul‑Reaping Rope in his hand writhing like a living thing, tightly coiling around two people.

One, a mixed‑blood named Jin Yongshun, is the Summoner of the female Toilet Ghost.

The other, slender and short‑haired, is Xiao Han Min Guo's Pu Xiangzhong, the Summoner of the Silent Counting Ghost.

"Just now, who was shouting there about recording our Dragon Nation people's disgrace so the whole world could witness our shame? Hmm? Wasn't it you, Pu Xiangzhong?"

The Ju Hun Jiang's voice was like a winter wind—bone‑piercing and sharp; his gaze, keen as a blade, fixed firmly on Pu Xiangzhong's trembling body, causing the latter to shiver involuntarily.

Facing that gaze that seemed to pierce the soul, Pu Xiangzhong's arrogant aura vanished instantly,

leaving only endless fear and regret,

"No, it wasn't me... I was speaking nonsense, please forgive me, I retract all my words."

"We were only following orders, we earnestly beg you to show mercy and spare us."

Pu Xiangzhong's voice trembled with sobs, utterly humble.

Meanwhile, Jin Yongshun beside him seemed to cling to a sliver of hope,

He sneered, speaking in an almost taunting tone:

"Hmph, what are you afraid of? They wouldn't dare do anything to us? We are Xiao Han Min Guo People, not bound by Dragon Nation law. If you have any sense, release us quickly, or you'll provoke unnecessary international disputes."

He stared intently at the Ju Hun Jiang, his eyes radiating blind confidence.

But the reality...

Snap!

A loud, swift Big Nose Bag, tearing the air, slammed heavily onto Jin Yongshun's cheek,

the force instantly knocked out his front teeth, spouting blood.

"To your grandmother! Did you think that once in my hands there was any chance of survival?"

The Ju Hun Jiang roared angrily, his cold voice sending chills, "Delusion!"

Then, the Ju Hun Jiang's gaze turned to the two beside him, Jiao Hong and Yu Haili,

"Little Jiao, that thing he just mentioned... that can let the whole world see, do you have it?"

Jiao Hong hurriedly nodded,

"You mean Live Broadcast, right? We happen to have a Transmitter on us."

"Good!" The Ju Hun Jiang nodded with satisfaction, then clapped his hands,

"Take it out and aim it at their faces."

"We also want the whole world to see exactly how this Xiao Han Min Guo People begs for mercy, utterly helpless!"

Having said that, the Ju Hun Jiang, holding a set of bone‑chilling execution devices, slowly approached the terrified Jin Yongshun and Pu Xiangzhong,

Tiger Bench, Bamboo Skewer, Skinning Knife, and Steel Saw... each enough to make anyone who hears their names shudder with fear.

In an instant, the tiny restroom filled with shrill screams and excruciating wails,

the desperate pleas for mercy echoed through the mall corridor, lingering endlessly.

Yu Haili and Jiao Hong, witnessing all this, were shocked yet felt no compassion,

the entire restroom turned a blood‑red, as if hell had descended upon the world.

The two former Summoners now curled up in a corner of the restroom, trembling!

Jin Yongshun and Pu Xiangzhong were unrecognizable, their features twisted and shattered, bones broken and exposed,

no part of their flesh remained intact.

This scene made everyone shudder with dread,

deeply feeling the chilling aura emanating from the Ju Hun Jiang.

At this moment, Jiao Hong and Yu Haili finally understood that the Ju Hun Jiang, who had been laughing all along,

when facing a true enemy, wielded methods of such iron‑blooded cruelty!

Though his actions were deemed cruel, they sparked an indescribable thrill in people's hearts.

Cruel? Indeed cruel, but it depends on who it's against,

Those Xiao Han Republic people who dare to violate the Dragon Nation!

Any so‑called cruelty is not beyond the limit.

Imagine, if Ju Hun Jiang had not appeared in time, it is likely that at this moment the ones enduring torment would be Jiao Hong and Yu Haili.

An ancient saying goes, being merciful in heart and soft in hand toward the enemy is no different from inflicting torture upon oneself.

Only by an eye for an eye, a blood for blood, can we ensure our peace.

"Rest assured, I will absolutely not let the two of you die so easily," Ju Hun Jiang's voice carried coldness,

"Because you are bargaining chips, enough to make the Xiao Han Republic pay the proper price!"

It must be admitted, Ju Hun Jiang's ability and wit absolutely qualify him to stand shoulder to shoulder with the legendary Black and White Impermanence.

His strength is unfathomable, and his mind is as sharp as an eagle,

This combined prowess earned sincere admiration from Jiao Hong and Yu Haili,

The two, simultaneously and silently, gave him a thumbs‑up.

……

Summoned Beast Research Headquarters.

Dachang City is not far from Summoned Beast Research Headquarters; the helicopter flew at full speed and arrived in a few tens of minutes.

In the conference room, elites gathered, and the captains of various special forces waited tensely.

"Captain Jiao, how did the mission go? Were those perpetrators captured?" Qin Meng's voice showed a hint of urgency.

"Captured them, but…" Jiao Hong said with a slight hesitation,

He simply played the previously recorded video,

Displaying the entire harsh interrogation process verbatim before everyone.

Each frame of the video was like a heavy hammer striking each person's heart, leaving them deeply shocked.

As a Summoner, Zhang Cheng was especially surprised; he had not expected Ju Hun Jiang's methods to be so ruthless.

"Hmph! Why are you all staring at me? As descendants of the Dragon Nation, have you forgotten the ancestors' will, and still need a ghost to remind you?"

Ju Hun Jiang's voice rang deafeningly, "Where the sun and moon shine, it is the Dragon Nation; wherever the rivers flow, it is Han Land. This is the Iron‑Blooded Will passed down by the ancestors; those who dare insult the Dragon Nation, even if far away, shall be exterminated!"

Then, Jiao Hong gave a detailed account of the whole affair, each detail inflaming the righteous anger of those present.

"These Xiao Han Republic bastards! Truly bringing this upon themselves!"

"I truly regret not being there at the time; had I been, I would have fought side by side with senior Ju Hun Jiang!"

Each captain was extremely indignant, slamming the table, eager to make those invaders pay immediately.

"Alright, everyone, settle down," Qin Meng stroked his chin, his gaze deep,

Clearly he was calculating how to make the most of this video to disgrace the Xiao Han Republic.

"The attackers are now in our hands, and combined with this humiliating video,

if the strategy is proper, we can not only strike the Xiao Han Republic hard, but also secure more benefits. Everyone, any suggestions?"

With those words, the room fell into silence, each captain rapidly weighing options in their mind.

"Release the video publicly, then execute those two attackers on the spot."

Captain Qin shook his head, turned to Zhang Cheng, his eyes full of expectation:

"Zhang Cheng, do you have any good ideas?"
