Sakura Country, Sakura City Prime Minister’s Mansion.
The secretaries hurried back and forth, heads lowered, gathering the latest intelligence from various departments.
In the Prime Minister’s office.
The Prime Minister, who had not slept because he was also paying attention to the Red Snake Sect, was now somewhat regretting why he had to focus on this matter.
Had he gone on his previous trip to inspect the north, wouldn’t he have successfully avoided this problem?
Now, should any problem arise, wouldn’t he, the puppet put forth as a result of compromises between the sects, become the best candidate to take the blame?
This was a burden the Prime Minister, even without any ambition, did not want to bear.
So he was stern in his speech in front of his subordinates and put on the image of a tough individual.
After he had sent the secretaries away and was on a video call with the Cabinet Secretary, his demeanor became much more humble, reverting to the loyal member of parliament from years ago.
The Cabinet Secretary saw nothing improper in the Prime Minister’s behavior.
In Sakura Country, it was the Prime Minister who shook hands, clapped, gave speeches, and signed treaties in public.
But behind the scenes, it was the elders like him who were in charge of deciding what the Prime Minister should say, do, even eat, and how much benefit he should get.
They were the real enforcers of the rules in Sakura City.
However, the current situation was giving the Secretary, such an important figure, a headache too.
Thanks to the internet, the Prime Minister’s Mansion was fortunate to be able to see the footage provided by the frontline without waiting for printed materials to be delivered, directly from their tablets.
After multiple verifications that this video material was indeed true,
there was a troop of White Bone Demons approaching the outskirts of Sakura City.
To say there was no panic would be a lie;
after all, the mystery and the unknown involved made every important figure quiver with unease.

“Your Excellency, the Prime Minister, this is truly an unprecedented event in a century. Holding the notion of being responsible for our country, I suggest we go to the Imperial Palace for an audience with His Majesty right now,” said the Secretary.
The Prime Minister hesitated for a moment, then quickly caught on and nodded in agreement, adding,
“An audience with His Majesty?”
“Yes, yes, yes! We must see His Majesty and explain the matter to him in person”
“With the Red Snake Sect causing such chaos, we should also call for the State Preceptors from the Shintoism and National Protection Sect!”
“Now that the Demons and Ghosts have appeared, those who are favored by the Emperor should also show their true capabilities!”
As his thoughts became clear, orders were issued from the Prime Minister’s Mansion.
The Prime Minister would take the cabinet ministers to the Imperial Palace for an audience with His Majesty and request His Majesty to order those sects favored by the Emperor to come to help.
In the meantime, others were needed to hold their positions and serve the country with loyalty!
On the outskirts of Sakura City.
The White Bone Giant of the Red Snake Sect had already left the mountain forest where the temple was located with the White Bone Demons.
As they moved away from the environment influenced by the Formation and the Spiritual Energy,
the White Bone Giant and the White Bone Demons felt a kind of discomfort and let out roars filled with pain.
Luckily, thoughtful Cultivators were manipulating the Heart Calamity Spirit Pearl, quickly channeling the power from a female cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage to follow them.
Providing them with a consistent battle environment.
As long as the power released from the Spiritual Pearl did not run out, the power of the Evil Technique would not fade in the short term.
Their roars echoed through the night sky, making the remote surveillance personnel all the more uneasy,
especially since some on-site personnel already knew about the Monsters’ ability to curse and kill from a distance.
However, concerning the safety of Sakura City,
the Sakura Country military and security departments, regardless of possible deception or pretense, still mobilized two squadrons of helicopters to take to the skies at night.
At the same time, several nearby military bases and security personnel stations were urgently mobilizing.
Yet apart from the few rapid response teams from the security departments already in Sakura City, other bases couldn’t take immediate action after mobilization.
While the senior Divine Officer and his assistant were watching the drone surveillance footage, worrying that the military wouldn’t arrive in time to intercept the Monsters before they reached the residential areas of Sakura City,
they suddenly noticed that the direction of the Monster troop had changed.
They had left the highway and rushed towards another branch road.
“That place… is the Sakura Slaughterhouse! One of the most important sites responsible for supplying fresh meat to Sakura City!” exclaimed one.
“Strange, didn’t anyone notify them? Where has the Prime Minister gone?”
In response to the Divine Officer’s question, the assistant replied with a pained expression, lowering his voice:
“The Prime Minister… It seems the Prime Minister has left with the ministers to see His Majesty…”
“But rest assured, it’s always the young officials responsible for staying behind who handle things, and they must have noticed the Demons’ movements,” the assistant quickly reassured.
Sakura Slaughterhouse.
At this moment, the place was also in turmoil.
The workers there were toiling through the night when suddenly the alarm bells rang out,
followed by a broadcast issuing evacuation orders.
Before long, the night shift workers gathered on the playground saw armed helicopters zooming through the sky and the barrage of rockets they fired.
Realizing this was not a joke, the workers began to flee in panic, each calling upon their divine skills.
Meanwhile, within the group of White Bone Demons, as the vanguard was obstructed by the explosions,
the White Bone Giant stopped as well and, after placing its claws on the ground.
The buzzing noise broke out!
Accompanied by the uneasy cries of the livestock, the floor of the slaughterhouse cracked open, and black vines emerged.
These vines sprouted branches from their mouths as soon as they appeared, entangling and consuming the blood and flesh of the living creatures around them.
