Chapter 585 - Impress The World (2/2)

The United Kingdom would not let a ticking nuclear bomb get so close to its capital. So far, they had refrained from using force to remove the threat due to their fear toward Chen Fan, but it didn’t mean the situation would last forever.

“I am also curious as to what Teacher is making,” A’Xiu asked herself.

One day.

Two.

Three…

As the clouds above the Winter Palace continued gathering, they had gained five distinctive colors: azure, white, black, red and yellow.

Many London citizens picked up their phones and recorded the iridescent cloud.

“London was once called the city of fog because of the smog. The name fits well with what we’re seeing,” someone said.

Someone who read too many novels on Qidian said, “I think it’s the sign of a numinous treasure. Or maybe a cultivator has called a heavenly tribulation. We need to head there and witness this historical moment.”

Someone who watched too much of Alex Jones’s show said, “The neighbor of my relative’s friend has a cla.s.smate who worked at the agency. She told me that the governmetn is experimenting some sort of secret weapon to turn our children gay!”

The more strange and inexplicable events came to pa.s.s, the more people were willing to believe in conspiracy theories. Many of them started to believe in the existence of Deities and Demons.

“Please inform Mr. Chen Beixuan that he needs to stop whatever he’s doing. He is posing a threat to London, and to the United Kingdom. The UK will stop him at all costs. ”

The British government’s words became increasingly scathing until they became open threats.

They weren’t nearly as angry at Chen Fan, even after he destroyed the Black Sea Fleet. At that time, they had seen him as no more than a powerful individual who was no match against any nation in the world.

However, Chen Fan’s ability to create a weapon of ma.s.s destruction had made him as dangerous to the EU as the USSR. At the height of the Cold War, the American president Kennedy used to threaten to use nuclear weapons in order to give America an edge.

National Safety was the nation’s bottom line, and some nations would spare no expense to ensure their survival.

“Mr. Chris, watch your words. You are threatening a living legend,” Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa replied coldly.

“I hope Mr. Chen Beixuan also understands that he is threatening the UK’s safety. This is our bottom line,” Chris said unwaveringly.

Chris Ball was the deputy minister of Foreing Affairs in the UK. He served in the parliament for his entire life and was respected in both houses of the British government.

“I repeat that Chen Beixuan’s actions have endangered our nation’s very existence. We will stop him at all costs,” Chris Ball replied hotly.

While facing the threats from a powerful nation, even the disciples of the North Qiong Sect looked troubled.

Although the UK was the weakest among the five major nations in the world, they had nuclear capabilities. Worse, one of their closest allies was America.

The North Qiong Sect was a powerful sect, but its influence was a far cry when compared with the UK.

“When will our teacher be done?” Yukis.h.i.+ro Sa asked herself restlessly.

“Boom!”

Suddenly, a blinding ray of aura beamed down from the sky and penetrated the ground. This ray of light had been made out of pure lightning energy. The shaft of light had five colors and was increasing in size as it pierced through anything in its path.

“What the…”

Chris pulled a dark face. “What is the meaning of this? Is Chen Beixuan really going to unleash the super weapon right next to London?”

The thought sent a chill down Chris’s spine.

There were tens of millions of people living in London, and if Chen Fan attacked the city, he would leave the UK government only one option: to use nuclear bombs to kill Chen Fan.

The 911 incident had a death toll of a few thousand, but it had dragged the US into decades of warfare, destroying two nations in the process.

A confrontation with Chen Fan would cost the UK even more.

“Our teacher has finished his task,” Yu Wenjin said excitedly.

“Task? What do you mean?”

Even as Chris tried to gather himself, he saw a shadowy figure emerging from the shaft of light. The person held a ball of light with five different colors. He flew up into the sky and disappeared behind the dark clouds.

“My Dharma Artifact shall impress the world!”

A deep booming voice drifted down from the clouds and rumbled across the sky.
