As soon as Yin Xiaoyang spoke, shock rippled through the crowd.
Initially, they believed that Charlie was simply a high-ranking member of the Po Qing Society.
However, it was aplete surprise when Yin Xiaoyang revealed that Charlie was offering them a chance to break free from the Po Qing Society.
This revtion created a stark contrast in their minds, leaving them utterly confused about how to respond.
Noticing their stunned expressions, Charlie addressed the group, saying, “I understand that you and your ancestors have been imprisoned and subjugated by the Po Qing Society for generations, turning you into their killers. I have the power to cleanse the poison from your bodies and provide you and your families with a safe refuge, free from the oppression of the Po Qing Society. However, I have one condition: you must unconditionally assist me in defeating the Po Qing Society. Once I eradicate them, you and your descendants will regain your freedom. At that point, you can go wherever you wish, and I won’t interfere.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Despite Charlie’s words, disbelief lingered in the air.
For hundreds of years, they and their ancestors had been firmly under the control of the Po Qing Society. Over these centuries, many had attempted to rebel or escape, but the strange poison coursing through their bodies felt like an unbreakable curse, and no one had been able to remove it.
Now, a stranger was iming he could help them lift this curse, and their immediate reaction was skepticism.
Seeing their doubt, Charlie decided to skip any further exnations and turned to Yin Xiaoyang, saying, “Commander Yin, please hand me the water.”
“Of course!” Yin Xiaoyang quickly passed Charlie therge bottle of pure water he had brought, and without waiting for additional instructions, he began distributing paper cups to the standing soldiers.
Charlie added some pills to the bottle, and once they dissolved, he approached the soldier in the front row, pouring him a small half cup of the mixture.
He continued this process, pouring equal amounts for each soldier in line.
The soldiers looked on in confusion, not fully understanding what was happening. Since Commander Qian Qiwu remained still, they all held onto their cups, waiting silently.
Returning to the front, Charlie urged, “Everyone, time is of the essence, and further discussion is pointless. After you drink the water in your cups, everything will be clear. If you trust me, step forward; if you’re still unsure, step back.”
In response to Charlie’s direct approach, Qian Qiwu immediately spoke up, saying, “Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Wade!”
He then lifted his cup and drank the water.
For Qian Qiwu, who had known nothing but servitude since birth, this was a moment of reckoning. He considered himself a mere ve, and he had no reason to believe that anyone would attempt to harm him. Therefore, he felt safe drinking the water.
Almost instantly after consuming the tasteless liquid, he felt a remarkable transformation within his body.<fnac86> Content originallyes from FιndNovel</fnac86>
The poison, entrenched in his meridians and Dantian, had made his insides feel like they were caked in repulsive sludge. But after taking that drink, it was as if all the filth had been swept away, leaving him feeling clean and renewed!
In that moment, he understood that Charlie had not been exaggerating; he truly had given them a chance to escape the clutches of the Po Qing Society and break the chains that had bound them for centuries!
His fellow soldiers experienced the same awakening, realizing that the toxic burden they carried had vanished. The relief brought many to tears of joy.
Qian Qiwu was the first to regain hisposure. He looked at Charlie, took a bold step forward, knelt on one knee, and proimed, “I am willing to die for you!”
Inspired by him, the others quickly followed suit, kneeling as well and dering in unison, “We are willing to die for you!”
