Chapter 1221: Chapter 700: Physical Ban_3
The cyber army panicked: "The Federation Association? What are you doing? We’re just posting online, the Federation allows freedom of speech, you must adhere to the law!"
Xiao Qi sneered: "I think we’ve been too lenient with you, causing you to forget our identity. In District Three, we are the law!"
Since banning accounts online didn’t work, let’s ban them physically.
Nowadays, the Parents’ Meeting has already spread across 25 cities in the Federation, and nearly all District Threes in these cities will be consolidated.
In these circumstances, it’s not an exaggeration for them to say they are the law in District Three.
This force, although not yet capable of confronting the Federation Group’s army, temporarily dealing with the cyber army is like using a cannon to swat a mosquito—overkill.
Only 30 minutes passed, and the bosses of the cyber army companies were shocked to discover that 90% of their once-proud cyber army had gone offline and disappeared...
One second they were posting "With so much dirt on Song Niannian, can you even trust what she says?" and the next second, the person was gone!
The bosses of the cyber army companies were baffled; it was the first time someone had played them like this.
Another 30 minutes passed, and one of the bosses of a cyber army company disappeared as well.
This public opinion battle reached its conclusion, leaving no space for Jindai and Deer Island online.
All accounts associated with Jindai and Deer Island were precisely targeted for bombing, and some of the missing cyber army, upon learning of the Parents’ Meeting’s stance, even turned around to help them deal with Jindai and Deer Island for free.
It’s not because they’re overflowing with a sense of justice. After all, what sense of justice can a cyber army have? It’s just that these people were genuinely enjoying the convenience brought by the Parents’ Meeting to everyone.
Justice is out of the question; everyone simply appreciates the efforts of the Parents’ Meeting in District Three of various cities.
Thus, on Jindai’s controlled "Link" platform, a sense of disconnection suddenly emerged.
Some accounts would post messages like "Senator Song Min has deceived the public when she campaigned before, don’t believe her words, anyone who believes is a dog."
The next moment, the same account would post "I apologize for misunderstanding Senator Song Min, I choose to believe him! Woof woof woof!"
When accounts like these appeared, it confused not only the gossip-loving citizens but also the management of "Link". Should they ban these types of accounts or not? Who do these accounts even belong to?
The public opinion battle was won.
Citizens from over 20 cities in the Federation took to the streets to shout for City 10.
In City 20, citizens even toppled the statue of Jindai’s first Family Head and spray-painted derogatory words on the memorial square.
Soon, Jindai started deploying soldiers to suppress the protesting citizens, and tear gas filled the city like smoke.
Jindai and Deer Island became desperate; they began to initiate military suppression.
However, this time public sentiment surged like a tidal wave, and workers responsible for transporting materials and constructing forward bases began striking, causing even public transport within the city to grind to a halt.
The fleet from Jindai, Deer Island, and the West Coast, originally planning to continue south, was forcibly trapped in place, granting Qing’s Family and Li Family time to recuperate and adjust their strategies.
There were previous instances of public opinion battles in the Federation, but this was the first time such a campaign impacted the strategic layouts of the conglomerates.

While the internet was abuzz, Qing Chen, deeply involved, sat atop a rooftop contemplating, "How do we get City 10 operational? What could become the pillar industry here, enabling Daylight and the Parents’ Meeting to truly establish their roots?"
An army needs to be fed, and the people require sustenance. In three months, Qing Chen will be alone supporting everything.
But with City 10 in ruins and its population cut by more than half, industries cannot be revitalized instantly.
This place needs people, it needs a vast number of industrial and tech talents.
An industry can only exist if there are people.
"I wonder how my elder brother did it," Qing Chen sighed.
He suddenly realized that the elderly man atop Ginkgo Mountain handed all of this to him and arranged a three-month buffer period, hoping he would learn how to govern a city during this time.
Only after understanding how to govern a city could he progress to learn how to govern a country.
Qing Chen had already had several mentors in his life.
Uncle Li Dong taught him cultivation.
Li Xiurui taught him a beginner’s mind.
Shadow helped him gain people’s hearts.
Now, the old man from Ginkgo Mountain seemed to want to teach him how to ’shepherd’ the people.
But this isn’t something Qing Chen really wanted to learn, just like he addressed his master Uncle Li Dong before, if a Knight is trapped within a city, then he is no longer a Knight.
If he spent his life engrossed in administrative affairs, he might become another Li Xiurui, ending up an elder looking at the sunrise from a cliff, silently regretting.
The principles taught by Old Master Li in the last phase of his life contradicted what the old man from Ginkgo Mountain wanted to teach him now.
Qing Chen sighed.
At least wait until the six million citizens of City 10 can eat, right?
Qing Chen thought and sent a message to Nan Gengchen: "Are there any recent projects that earn money?"
Nan Gengchen was intrigued: "Brother Chen, aren’t the presidents and celebrities in your place nowadays? You could have them film blessing videos like those African guys, that actually earns quite a bit. They could also host weddings and earn tens of thousands per event."
Qing Chen immediately blacklisted Nan Gengchen, planning to unblock him after a while.
What kind of money-making avenues are these? After mixing with the rich and famous for so long, Nan Gengchen’s mindset hasn’t opened up...
How might we attract people from other cities in the Federation to contribute to City 10?
Just then a question occurred to Qing Chen, he instructed Qing Ye to wake up that grey-haired President, who was brought over while still drowsy: "Do you have something on your mind?"
The scene was a bit odd; the dignified President of the Federation was inexplicably courteous to Qing Chen, this teenager.
In the twilight, the youth seemed capable of shielding the heavens with a single hand...
Qing Chen smiled and said: "I brought you here to thank you for your contribution today; it was indeed very useful."
"Thank you?" President Ning Zhiyuan queried in confusion.
Qing Chen placed his hand atop the president’s head, channeling his Knight Vital Energy within, Empowerment!
The next moment, half of the grey hairs on the president’s head visibly turned black!
The president felt as though his aging body was imbued with a sense of vitality once more.
Qing Ye watched silently, his eyes revealing amazement.
The immortals would touch my head, bind my hair, and grant longevity.
The Zhun Ti method clearly stated that recipients of Empowerment could extend their lives by 21 years, it was a technique used by ancient immortals to attract followers without teaching Breathing Techniques.
To increase a lifespan by 21 years, could this attract the Federation’s populace?
