The Village Chief was about to show them around Qiao Family Village.
But a crowd of villagers blocked their way.
Every one of them was seething with righteous indignation, denouncing the Village Chief as a traitor.
"Village Chief, the Dragon God orders you to beg forgiveness, or face the consequences!"

"Impossible! The Dragon God doesn't even know about this!"
"Village Chief, are you talking about that fake Dragon God? You really have betrayed the Dragon God!"

Has-Been Celebrity Group leader: My dear haters in the livestream, the Washed-Up Star isn't there. Flood the chat.
And suddenly, comments flooded the livestream.
They all read: Tang Shiba's the darkest, Tang Shiba's the meanest, Tang Shiba's the biggest menace in the Entertainment Industry! If you meet Tang Shiba,
