Chapter 800 - 435, Demon Breeding Farm, Lingxiao Hall makes its appearance
After the Azure Palace issued the peace bomb deterrence, only ten minutes had passed.
"Boom!"
Accompanied by an earth-shattering explosion.
In the desert of the western region of Carmenia, a giant mushroom cloud rose.
This was the first time in more than half a century that Carmenia had detonated a peace bomb.
Photos spread instantly across the world.
Many countries initially thought this was just verbal intimidation, but the rising giant mushroom changed the world's perception.
The Carmenians seem to be serious!!
Thus.
Global shock!
Stock markets around the world ushered in a round of general decline.
Interestingly, Carmenia's stock market crashed the hardest, plummeting over 20% within a single hour.
Countless wealth vanished as a result.
The Great Xia stock market's decline was the smallest, with the index fluctuating scarcely more than 2%.
Some stocks even showcased a "reverse drop."
The most typical example was the military industry-related sector.
The Pioneer Alliance's stocks also rose by 3%, perhaps because many people believed that the Pioneer Alliance could obtain weapons through civil trade, which could barely be considered part of the military sector.
Two hours after the giant mushroom stood tall.
Yang Fan, in the guise of Jack, with Grace and her daughter, carrying luggage, boarded a flight to the Nan Jing Continent.
The female officer's unusual trust in Yang Fan was such that she didn't even request leave from the police station and simply took the bucket and left without a trace.
They would transit through the Banan Kingdom in the Nan Jing Continent, then transfer to another flight to Eastern Great Xia.
With the merit of multiple reports, they had successfully applied for Great Xia citizenship.
"Woo~"
The engine roared.
The aircraft began to taxi slowly.
Grace looked at a message on her phone screen, her face showing surprise: "Jack, the Federation's officials just announced they are deploying three million troops to stabilize the unrest in various cities and declared a special state for three years."
Yang Fan wasn't surprised at all: "The Federation still controls the military; no matter how chaotic the situation gets, it can't get out of hand."
He paused, then added: "I estimate it won't be long before the Federation's officials introduce stricter inspection measures, making entry and exit not as easy."
Grace fully trusted his judgment: "It's definitely possible!"
A quarter of an hour later.
The aircraft reached cruising speed.
Yang Fan's words proved prophetic.
Grace looked at another news report, her face filled with relief: "The Federation just issued a notice that the military has taken over the borders and airports, requiring at least a one-day advance application for anyone entering or exiting, and only those who pass the review are allowed transit."
The female officer couldn't help but pat her chest: "Good thing I listened to you; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to leave."
As a police officer, she definitely wouldn't have been allowed to leave the Carmenia Federation during such extraordinary times.
Yang Fan smiled and didn't say much more.
After sending Grace and her daughter away, he would return to Carmenia under another identity.
After all, with so many Qing yang Demon Race members here, a doppelganger must be stationed in Carmenia at all times.

At the same time.
Tianfu Province, Xiumei City.
The real Yang Fan, in full view of the public, lifted a shovel of dirt with a shovel and tossed it away.
"Clap! Clap!"
Warm applause immediately erupted around him.
This was the groundbreaking ceremony for Celestial Star Agriculture's investment project in Tianfu Province.
Celestial Star Agriculture would build or acquire and renovate a batch of farms, all to cultivate Ice Mushroom, a special fungus that Yang Fan developed more than half a year ago.
Ice Mushroom has a surprising preference for supernatural cold qi, and in the regions where frost disasters erupted, supernatural cold qi would persist for a long time, making it very suitable for Ice Mushroom cultivation.
Just half a day earlier.
The extreme cold cyclone over Xiumei City had suddenly dissipated.
The layer of frost covering the city quickly turned into a thin coat of ice.
This signified the end of the frost disaster.
The Great Xia Disaster Relief Command announced the disaster caused 934 deaths.
Only three figures.
While in other parts of Canglan Star experiencing similar frost disasters, the minimum death toll exceeded 150,000.
The official announcement also commended a large group of individuals for their meritorious contributions, totaling over ten thousand people.
Yang Fan's name was prominently at the top of the list.
As for the rewards, they were nothing special, just a million Xia Yuan prize and a few honorary titles.
At this moment.
Xiumei City's top official, Xi Rui, smiled and said, "Chairman Yang, you've worked hard!"
According to the project contract, Celestial Star Agriculture would build over six hundred farms, generating more than one hundred billion Xia Yuan in annual revenue, so the official was in a very good mood.
The groundbreaking ceremony was held so quickly mainly because the province wanted to use this good news to boost morale.
Yang Fan didn't find it tiring, after all, he only dug a shovel of soil, not even a warm-up.
To prevent Chairman Yang from being overworked, the construction project's contractor even pre-softened the frozen soil.
Xi Rui made a gesture: "Chairman Yang, the frost disaster has just passed, and it's still cold outside, let's go back to the hotel."
Yang Fan agreed readily: "Alright!"
Soon.
The convoy set off.
Xi Rui naturally chatted about the current hottest global news: "Azure Palace is crazy, openly violating international regulations by directly detonating a peace bomb."
Ling Shuiling, sitting in the row behind, interjected: "In my opinion, a peace bomb war might not actually break out."
Xi Rui was curious about her view and asked: "Miss Ling, do you have any high thoughts on this?"
