GROIKTP Chapter 466

**Capital City, Center of Power.**

In a spacious conference room, the faces of all the senior officials of China were beaming with satisfaction. The reason for their elation was naturally the monumental battle that took place tonight, in which Shura and Song Lingrong led their team to victory against the enemy!

Not only did they foil Adam’s insidious plot, but they also forced the sinister Wind God, a threat to all humanity, back to hell. It was an undeniable triumph.

At that moment, the doors of the conference room swung open. The secretary-general entered and reported to the highest leader, “Chief, we’ve just received congratulatory messages from several nations, including Uzhan, Baiding, and Yingquan, praising our major victory. Their prime ministers have also expressed a desire to visit our country soon and seek deeper cooperation and trade relations.”

Hearing this, the senior officials in the room burst into laughter.

“These opportunists sure are quick to react!” an elder said with a chuckle.

“No doubt! They’re masters at switching allegiances depending on who’s winning,” added another.

“Finally, we can hold our heads high!” Many expressed their joy.

The highest leader couldn’t help but reflect, “This is the tragedy of small countries. They can’t control their own fate. They flock to the strong, abandon the weak, and their very survival is in the hands of others. We must learn from this and stay vigilant so that the people of Yan and Huang can thrive for generations.”

These words came from the leader’s heart, not just as a lecture, and everyone in the room nodded in agreement, understanding the truth behind them.

The actions of the smaller nations tonight were a clear example of this.

The leader extinguished his cigarette and spoke again, “This operation was a great success. Shura and Little Song deserve the highest commendations, and the other participants shouldn’t be overlooked either. We must reward them generously to ensure that no hero’s heart grows cold. The office needs to draw up a plan for this immediately.”

The director of the office quickly responded, “Chief, we will have a feasible rewards plan ready before sunrise.”

The leader nodded, then added, “There’s one more matter. Regarding Shura sinking the island nation, our diplomatic and intelligence departments must closely monitor public opinion, both domestic and international. We can’t let anyone use this incident to smear Shura. After all, he was right—Wind God was a threat to all of humanity, and sacrifices had to be made. This is a case of sacrificing the few for the greater good.”

With that, the tone was set.

Several officials nodded, understanding that the leader had made it clear how this matter should be framed.

“There’s one last issue, and it’s the most important,” the leader said seriously. “The remnants of the Ye family have fled to the Sam Empire, correct? Contact the Sam Empire immediately and demand they extradite the Ye family back to us. Shura is our hero; we can’t allow him to feel betrayed. We must give him a satisfactory resolution.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

No one thought the leader was being too harsh in labeling the Ye family as remnants.

After tonight’s battle, everyone clearly understood how crucial Shura was to China.

If Shura grew dissatisfied because of this and foreign powers managed to sway him, it wouldn’t just be a loss for China—it would be a disaster!

“What if the Sam Empire refuses to cooperate?” someone asked, concerned.

“Refuse?” The leader’s eyes gleamed with sharpness as he smiled. “I recall Adam saying something to Wind God about splitting the world between them, right? Release a video of Adam’s words to the public. The Sam Empire will have no choice but to cooperate.”

This was a classic divide-and-conquer strategy, meant to drive a wedge between Adam and the Sam Empire.

After all, when Adam made those bold declarations, he believed victory was assured and didn’t hold back. He likely never imagined Shura would turn the tables on him.

Now it was awkward.

The government of the Sam Empire, along with other Western nations, certainly wouldn’t want to see Adam ruling the entire West.

The leaders in the room were quick to catch on to the chief’s strategy, their eyes lighting up.

From now on, there would be no peace between Adam and the Sam Empire.

Even if they continued to cooperate, it would be a temporary alliance at best, with both sides harboring deep mistrust.

…

The senior officials’ predictions weren’t wrong.

At that very moment, the leaders of the Sam Empire were deep in thought, contemplating their next move.

**Pentagon.**

Inside a massive conference room, the atmosphere was tense and stifling.

No one spoke.

Since Adam’s defeat, this silence had persisted.

Especially after witnessing the destructive power of Shura, who singlehandedly obliterated an entire nation, many were terrified.

Having such a monstrous individual aligned with the enemy was a grim prospect.

At that moment, the door to the conference room opened. The president’s secretary hurried in and whispered something into the president’s ear.

The president furrowed his brow before addressing the room, “Everyone, it has been confirmed—Will (Adam’s real name) is alive. He’s currently resting at his private estate.”

Hearing this, a wave of relief swept through the room.

“Thank God! At least he made it back alive.”

“Indeed! That Shura monster… Only Will stands a chance against him.”

“With Will still around, we don’t need to worry about China causing trouble for us anytime soon.”

The Secretary of Defense scoffed, “Gentlemen, do I need to remind you of just how ambitious Will is?”

Those who had just been celebrating were suddenly jolted back to reality.

That’s right!

Will had made a deal with that demon from Hell, planning to split the world between them.

This move posed a serious threat to their current positions.

If Will had succeeded in his plan, with his influence and terrifying power, not to mention his reputation in the Sam Empire, controlling the entire Western world—or even just the Sam Empire—might have been possible!

In light of this, Will’s return to the Sam Empire didn’t seem like good news after all…

For a moment, the room fell into silence again.

The president then said, “China has just sent a formal request for us to extradite the remaining members of the Ye family back to them. What are your thoughts?”

After a brief pause, someone raised a hand. “I agree! Mr. President, it might be time for us to reconsider our stance on China. Cooperation could be more beneficial.”

“I support that!”

“I agree as well!”
