Chapter 2477
Even Eastern Lake suffered from a few cases of violent outbreaks.
Huang Yuming had been busy breaking up fights one after another, some of them among his own men.
He could clearly sense that something was amiss as his men were usually able to control themselves.
Despite being hot-tempered, they knew what they shouldn't do and would never let their conflicts escalate into fist fights.
However, it seemed as if the chains of morality and legality that kept them under control have been broken.
They were all acting impulsively on their negative thoughts like someone was inciting them to do so.
In fact, even Huang Yuming found himself having urges from time to time. The harder he tried hard to keep them suppressed, the stronger the urges became.
"What on earth is going on here?"
Fortunately, he was able to keep himself under control through his great willpower, whereas those who weren't mentally strong enough succumbed to their negative emotions almost instantly. "Have you managed to contact Jiang Hing?" Tan Xing asked with a frown.
An old man of his age no longer had any desires nor ambitions, so he was hardly affected at all.
The younger generation, on the other hand, had their desires and ambitions amplified so much that they would do anything to get what they wanted.
It was truly a terrifying sight to behold.
Huang Yuming and the others from Extreme Martial Arts Academy had to work together with the legal authorities in order to contain the chaos in Eastern Lake by force.
However, things would go completely out of hand if those from the legal authorities ended up losing control as well.
"We've sent people looking for him in Kunlun. Fang Qiu is on the case. This is all very strange. What on earth is going on?" Huang Yuming replied while
injecting himself with a tranquilizer to calm himself down.
He grew increasingly worried when he watched the international news and saw the same thing happening all over the world.
If this goes on, the entire world will be plunged into darkness! Wars will break out everywhere, and countless people are going to die because of it! I can't even imagine how scary that would be! "Don't worry too much about it for now. Let's just focus our efforts on maintaining order in Eastern Lake until Jiang Ning returns."
Since the citizens of Eastern Lake
were mostly working stable jobs and
living happy lives, they weren't affected all that much. As a result, the situation there was a lot better compared to the other cities across the country.
Although they were slightly more irritable than usual, some of those who lost their temper was quick to realize it and apologize before a fight broke out. Unfortunately, the same could not be said for other countries, especially those suffering from poverty.
Meanwhile, Jiang Ning struggled to focus on his thoughts in the Heavenly Palace.
At one point, he opened his eyes and glanced in the direction of Eastern Lake.
What's going on? I feel like something isn't right...
He then got up and headed over to the Longevity Pond where Brother Gou, Peter Pan, Yumeng, and the others were.
"Something feels off," he told Peter Pan.
"What do you mean?" Peter Pan didn't feel anything.
Could there be trouble in Eastern Lake? No, that's impossible. That city is like an impenetrable fortress now! I've seen the power of those cannons. Greedy Wolf would be blasted into nothingness if he dares to show up there! In fact, that would even save us the trouble of killing
him altogether!
"I don't know, something just feels off. I'd better go check on things in Eastern Lake," Jiang Ning said as he felt the strange sensation in his heart grow stronger. "Hold still, Jiang Ning!" Yumeng shouted in shock.
Her body was all tensed up like she saw something behind his back.From NôvelDrama.Org.
Although Jiang Ning felt a slight chill down his spine, he was certain that there was nothing behind his back Even so, he held still anyway and exchanged glances with Yumeng, who took a deep breath and slowly got to her feet.
Swoosh!
A split second later, she dashed forward and used her Guidance to seize the soul clinging to Jiang Hing's back.
