64: I'm so angry, when will Ah San be able to stand up?

As night fell, Li Mu, who was still in the Cave Heaven Small World, continued to Cultivate his sword using Top-Grade Spirit Stones. The silly Dragon beside him was coiled up, resting by Li Mu's side, refining the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Stones within its body.

Compared to the quietness in the Cave Heaven Small World, the outside world was much livelier tonight!

Because of the content of Li Mu's diary entry, the various big shots were not as calm as imagined.

The Elders Council of Xia Country also performed their respective duties, issuing one command after another, while continuing negotiations and bickering with A San Country.

In short, it was one sentence: the evacuation of citizens was not for the purpose of war, but merely due to some domestic policies.

However, it was clear that the King of A'San did not believe such an explanation, but the Elders Council of Xia Country did not care anymore.

They were sure that A San Country would not dare to be presumptuous, otherwise, after the Giant Lizard Monster incident concluded, they would not mind using force to change the City of A San Country's capital.

The United States side was still continuously sending people to search for traces of the snake demon in the White Mountain Range.

The Ugly Country President had been restless ever since he learned from Camilla that the snake demon was not dead but had escaped and was now hiding somewhere recuperating!

As for A San Country, the King of A'San and a group of high-ranking officials now had grim expressions, pacing back and forth anxiously in the conference room.

The King of A'San felt like he had been screwed!

Because Xia Country refused to sell them glass, he had sent people to harass the border, thinking that unless Xia Country agreed to sell to them, they would continue to harass and annoy Xia Country.

It was precisely because of these years of continuous harassment that the King of A'San concluded that Xia Country sought stability in everything, and such harassment would not be enough to provoke a major conflict with Xia Country.

That's why he dared to be so presumptuous.

But who knew, this time, as soon as he started to act, Xia Country immediately evacuated its citizens.

This was them wanting to fight A San Country to the death!!

No!

This was them wanting to annihilate A San Country.

Upon thinking of this, the King of A'San immediately felt a surge of Qi and shivered, after all, he had only been in office for less than two or three years!

Could it be that he was about to become a king of a fallen nation?

Xia Country is too deceitful! Do they think we A San Country are easy to bully? We have the United States backing us!

However, the next moment, the King of A'San cried.

Because when he sought help from the United States, the Ugly Country President directly said: 'Seek your own blessings.'

And then there was no further communication.

Are you kidding? How could the Ugly Country President not know what was about to happen in A San Country?

The President even speculated that Xia Country's large-scale evacuation this time was probably also because of the events mentioned in the diary!

In other words, the official side of Xia Country might also know about this matter, or possess a copy of the diary like the one Camilla has.

As soon as he thought that the diary in Camilla's hand was not unique, the Ugly Country President immediately felt a surge of irritation.

As for A San Country, seeing that the Ugly Country President ignored him, he panicked even more, thinking he might have been abandoned by the United States big shots.

He could only timidly contact Xia Country again, hoping Xia Country would show mercy, and that they were willing to compensate and so on.

Upon hearing this, the Elders of Xia Country were delighted.

They had merely evacuated their citizens to prevent their people from being life-threatened in A San Country if the Giant Lizard Monster appeared.

But they never expected that this series of actions would be imagined by A San Country as an attempt to destroy their country? Willing to publicly apologize for the border provocations and offer a large amount of compensation? Such a good thing actually existed?

Then, thinking that their citizens in A San Country were already on their way back, they simply made an exorbitant demand.

In the end, besides a public apology, they also demanded valuable resources as compensation.

For example, bauxite, mica, titanium, thorium, uranium, natural gas, etc., they directly demanded one-third of the annual extraction for the next ten years.

A San Country is a major mineral-rich country, with huge annual extraction volumes, accounting for a significant proportion of the world's total.

Originally, the Elders had only made an exorbitant demand, leaving room for the King of A'San to bargain.

But they never expected this fellow to be so timid that he directly agreed, which caught the Xia Country Elders Council off guard.

With the matter settled, the King of A'San breathed a sigh of relief, then comfortably sat on his throne, feeling that he had finally escaped death and was extremely fortunate!

The high-ranking officials below all looked at the King of A'San nervously, waiting for him to announce the outcome of the negotiations with Xia Country.

Seeing everyone's gazes, the King of A'San suddenly felt a surge of pride.

"Don't panic, everyone. Xia Country has agreed not to go to war with us, and in a few days, the Xia Country people working here in A San Country will return to their posts."

Upon hearing the King of A'San's words, the high-ranking officials were just about to breathe a sigh of relief when, in the next second, they heard the King of A'San continue:

"They demanded that this king publicly apologize for the border provocations, and one-third of our A San Country's various mineral extractions for the next ten years."

"They just wanted to extort a sum from us, and I agreed, and they immediately stopped sending troops!"

The high-ranking officials, who were just about to breathe a sigh of relief, almost choked when they heard the King's words, their eyes wide and their old faces flushed red!

Several elderly ones, upon hearing their king's words, almost passed out from anger.

These minerals were their A San Country's biggest economic source, and now it was directly reduced by one-third...

They couldn't believe how their normally wise king could be so incompetent when facing Xia Country!

Xia Country was clearly making an exorbitant demand, why didn't you bargain?!

..................

One night passed quickly.

The first thing those who possessed a copy of the diary did upon waking up early the next morning was to check if the diary had been updated.

However, everyone was disappointed after reading it; no new content had been updated.

They didn't know that Li Mu was still Cultivating and had not yet finished.

In Li Mu's plan, he was currently setting up a Formation in the East Sea to block the first wave of invaders from another world in the future!

However, something unexpected happened today!

When Li Mu finished his Cultivation, left the Cave Heaven Small World, and returned to his home in Heng City, he connected to the internet on his phone and saw something.

Ke Ming announced that after tonight's concert, she would permanently retire from the entertainment industry!

This news instantly exploded on the internet.

After all, Ke Ming had recently risen rapidly, reaching the ranks of second-tier singers, and her recent popularity even surpassed some Heavenly King-level singers.

With such momentum, a future as a Heavenly Queen was clearly within reach.

Yet, despite this, Ke Ming directly announced her permanent retirement without any warning. This news was incredibly explosive!

On the internet, whether fans or casual observers, almost everyone was speculating about the reason for Ke Ming's retirement.

There were all sorts of guesses.

However, when Li Mu saw this information, his brow slightly raised, and he felt somewhat surprised by Ke Ming's retirement.

After all, Ke Ming could be said to be very fond of singing, yet such a person who loved to sing was going to retire?

This somewhat disrupted his plans concerning Ke Ming...

To this end, Li Mu opened the System page, retrieved Ke Ming's identity information, and then directly threw an Appraisal at it, wanting to see the reason for Ke Ming's retirement.

Only by knowing clearly could he re-plan the strategy for Ke Ming's storyline.

The next second, Ke Ming's detailed information appeared before Li Mu...
