I was selling peach wood swords on a live stream, how did I become a Taoist ancestor?

Chapter 275 Vassal and Dog

"The ley lines of the Great Xia cover the New World and will not provide you with any protection."

The blond man's voice wasn't loud, but every word was clearly audible to everyone present.

"It will only bring slavery."

He stood up, walked to the center of the conference hall, and looked around.

"Do you think that being from Great Xia will treat you kindly?"

The blond man paused, his voice growing even colder.

"Won't."

"What that person needs is the ley lines, expansion."

"As for the people of the New World..."

"They're nothing but ants."

His words were like a bucket of cold water poured over everyone present.

Some began to waver, some began to fear, and some began to be angry.

But Jensen remained calm.

He looked at the blond man and spoke slowly.

"Then, what about the church?"

His voice was calm.

What can the church give us?

The blond man looked at him, a cold glint in his eyes.

"The church can give you true protection."

He walked back to his seat and sat down again.

"The Lord loves the world, regardless of race or nationality."

"As long as you bask in the glory of the Lord again, the Lord will protect you."

"The church can help you deal with those natural spirits that have descended into the world."

"Glory will shine on the whole new continent."

"And you..."

He paused, his voice carrying a seductive undertone.

"There will be an opportunity to ascend to heaven."

"To become an angel, to become a saint, to become an eternal being."

Silence fell over the conference room once again.

Some are thinking, some are hesitating, and some are tempted.

Ascend to heaven.

Become an angel.

That's something so many people dream of.

Jason stared at the blond man and remained silent for a long time.

Then, he slowly began to speak.

"Bishop Alberto, this...ascetic."

His voice was calm, but he emphasized each word.

"What you say makes a lot of sense."

"We do need help."

"They do indeed need shelter."

"but……"

He paused, looking into the blond man's golden eyes.

"We need to see hope."

"It's not an empty promise, not just empty words."

"But it is real, tangible hope."

The blond man looked at him, his eyes growing even colder.

But He did not have an attack.

Because He felt an extremely strong sense of threat before He even entered the room.

Nuclear weapons.

Moreover, there was more than one.

If He makes any unusual move, those nuclear weapons will be launched instantly.

At that time, even if He were an angel, He might not be able to escape unscathed.

Ha... These foolish and disloyal humans should all be purified by the Holy Light!

"Can."

The blond man nodded, his voice calm.

"You may choose any place where a natural spirit descends upon the world."

"Then, I...I will influence it."

Jason stared at him for a long time.

Then he nodded.

"it is good."

He flipped open the map on the table and pointed to one of the marks.

"This is fine."

"Deep within the Rocky Mountains, three nature spirits are about to descend upon the world simultaneously."

The blond man glanced at the mark and nodded.

"Can."

He stood up and straightened his holy robes.

"I will go there in three days to influence them."

"You can send someone to attend the ceremony."

After saying that, He turned and walked out.

Alberto also stood up and nodded to Jason.

"Director Jason, we'll take our leave now."

See you in three days.

Jason stood up and saw them to the door.

See you in three days.

He watched the convoy drive away from headquarters and disappear from sight, and the smile on his face slowly faded.

Then he turned around and walked back to his office.

Close the door and press a button on the wall.

Update released! Book lovers, go read Cola Novels!

buzzing.

A soft humming sound rang out, and the entire office was enveloped in a light blue energy barrier.

This is the latest energy shielding device developed by New Continent, which can effectively block detection and eavesdropping from the outside.

Jason sat down behind his desk, leaned back in his chair, and closed his eyes.

He was silent for a long time.

The office was quiet, with only the hum of the air conditioner and his breathing.

The assistant stood to the side, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating.

Finally, he couldn't help but speak up.

"Chief, is there... any hope for us?"

Jason opened his eyes and looked at him.

Then, he shook his head.

"Is there any hope?"

He gave a wry smile.

"That's not necessarily true."

The assistant was stunned.

"Chief, you mean...?"

Jason stood up and walked to the window.

Outside the window, the sun shines brightly, the sky is blue with white clouds, and the weather is fine and sunny.

But what he saw was gloom.

It is an endless gloom.

"The Church of Holy Light's actions are definitely not well-intentioned."

He spoke, his voice hoarse.

"That blond man is not an ascetic."

"He is an angel."

"A true angel."

"How could such a being possibly care about our lives?"

The assistant opened his mouth as if to say something, but ultimately said nothing.

Jason continued, "Even if they really want to help us, they want us to become their vassals."

"To become a vassal of the Church of Holy Light."

"Become the Lamb of the Lord."

"Forever enslaved, forever exploited."

The assistant paused for a moment, then asked cautiously, "Doesn't that mean their goal is no different from that of the one in Great Xia?"

"No, no, no."

Jason shook his head.

"There's a big difference."

He turned around and looked at his assistant.

"I would rather be a dog of the Great Xia than submit to Europe."

The assistant was stunned.

He didn't expect the bureau chief to say such a thing.

"Why?" he asked.

Jason was silent for a few seconds.

Then, he slowly began to speak.

"Because judging from the past history, the Great Xia Dynasty is worthy of the title of a land of etiquette."

"They are moral, keep their promises, and are grateful."

"By becoming a vassal of Great Xia, we can survive, and even thrive."

"But Europe and the Church of Holy Light..."

He paused, his voice becoming even lower.

"If we become their vassals, our future situation will probably be even more miserable than if we were slaves."

The assistant remained silent after hearing this.

He knew the bureau chief was right.

The history of the Great Xia Dynasty is indeed a history of inclusiveness, assimilation, and integration.

And the history of Europe...

It is a history of invasion, plunder, and enslavement.

The difference between the two is huge.

"So, Director, you mean...?"

The assistant asked cautiously.

Jason did not answer immediately.

He walked to his desk, opened a drawer, and took out a document.

That was a pre-prepared itinerary for the visit to Daxia.

"Contact the President."

Jason spoke, his voice firm.

"Tell him that the visit to Daxia cannot be delayed any longer."

"Let's set off today."

"I will go to the Black Palace now to discuss the specifics with him."

"Furthermore, issue a notice to closely monitor the movements of the Holy Light Church delegation."

"On the nuclear weapons front, we're on standby at all times."

"If there are any abnormalities, launch immediately without requesting permission."

The assistant took a deep breath and nodded emphatically.

"yes!"

He turned and strode out of the office.

Jason stood there, staring at the document, and remained silent for a long time.

"Master Li..."

"I hope your appetite isn't too big."

His voice was very soft, so soft that it was almost inaudible.

But the heavy worry made it hard for him to breathe.

Outside the window, the sun was still shining brightly.

But Jason knew that a storm was coming.
