The next afternoon, everyone went to Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark for fun.
This water park, Dubai's largest and most dynamic marine-themed park, is one of the must-visit attractions for tourists in Dubai. Without a visit here, one would feel something was missing.
It's like a man going to Thailand and not engaging in some adult entertainment; it feels like a wasted trip.
Provided, of course, that one is not accompanied by a girlfriend.
Who would bring their girlfriend to Thailand for such activities? That would truly be a trip for sightseeing, not for pleasure.
Xia Lin, Liu Jingru, Qin Wen, and Ma Yuqin, the four girls, along with National Little Wang, Qin Dou, Jiang Xin, and Zhou Gangyi, eight people in total, participated in the water activities.
Peter from England, Huang Heng, and Li Changhe waited outside.
This was an activity for the younger generation. Old Wang and the others did not join, and Xia Feng stayed with them at the hotel, drinking tea and chatting.
The swimsuits bought by Xia Lin and the other three girls were all conservative. Compared to other women playing at the water park, they were considered particularly modest.
The amusement park was vast. The eight of them played for the entire afternoon and still hadn't experienced everything, leaving with a sense of reluctance as they departed.
In the evening, after dinner, they toured the castle before preparing for the New Year's Eve party.
Around nine o'clock, Pope Paul knocked gently on Xia Feng's door.
"Master, it's time to depart. I have confirmed the exact location of the Trident."
After Xia Feng opened the door, Pope Paul said respectfully.
"Good," Xia Feng replied, and went to find Xia Lin.
Xia Feng, Xia Lin, Long Aotian, Pope Paul, and Zhou Gangyi went directly to the farm mentioned by Pope Paul.
This farm was located in the suburbs and covered a large area. The Trident's hiding place was here.
Xia Lin knew what she was going out to do today. Although she had said it was fine before, facing it now made her a little nervous.
After all, she was afraid to kill a chicken, and suddenly she was about to witness the killing of bad people. The psychological contrast was quite significant.
"Master, it's here," Pope Paul pointed to the farm and said.
"Let's get started," Xia Feng said, taking Xia Lin's hand and flying into the sky.
He intended to give Xia Lin the best vantage point.
Xia Feng had no other motives and certainly wouldn't let Xia Lin do the fighting. He just wanted her to accept this reality.
Even if Xia Lin hadn't come, any cultivators who harmed Xia Nation would not have been spared.
This was merely a chance for Xia Lin to broaden her horizons.
"Brother... are these people all bad people?" Xia Lin asked, looking at the farm.
"Lin'er, you need to understand one thing: the world of cultivators is cruel. Before I take you away from Earth, do something for Xia Nation. What we are doing today is their own doing."
Xia Feng explained patiently.
"Yes, to clear all obstacles for Xia Nation is my bounden duty," Xia Lin nodded heavily.
Xia Feng smiled knowingly at her words and said no more.
Below, Pope Paul shouted, "Trident members, come out and face your deaths!"
Following Pope Paul's roar, many people rushed out of the manor.
The man at the forefront, dressed in black, spoke in Arabic, "Who are you, and why have you trespassed into our Trident?"
"Are you deaf? I just said, come out and face your deaths," Pope Paul cursed.
The man in black then spoke in English, "You court death."
"Begin," Long Aotian said calmly after glancing at Pope Paul.
He then attacked the man in black, saying, "Those who offend my Xia Nation shall die."
The man in black's face changed drastically. He couldn't withstand even one move from Long Aotian and was instantly stomped to death.
What followed was a one-sided slaughter. Long Aotian alone could have wiped them all out, let alone with Pope Paul by his side.
As for Zhou Gangyi, he was merely picking off the stragglers, chasing down anyone who tried to escape and delivering the final blow.
There was no resistance in battles of this caliber. Long Aotian now killed these people as easily as he would kill chickens.
Xia Lin watched from above as the Trident members were slaughtered by Long Aotian and the others. She felt no great emotional turmoil. Although Xia Lin was a girl, everyone knew that these damn people were not worthy of sympathy.
Showing sympathy for these individuals would only lead to countless troubles for Xia Nation and even endanger the lives of its people.
The massacre lasted for about ten minutes. After Long Aotian confirmed that no one was left alive, he called out to Xia Feng, "Master, the Trident has been completely annihilated."
"Good, stand down."
As Xia Feng said this, a tiny flame appeared in his hand, which he threw towards the manor.
The flame found its own path, and the moment it landed, it engulfed the entire manor. The entire estate was instantly reduced to ashes under the blazing inferno.
"Brother... I must say, this fire is quite beautiful. It's the last big fire of the year for them."
Xia Lin's resolve had strengthened. Looking at the flames below, she even made a joke.
"Yes, tomorrow is a new year again," Xia Feng sighed.
"Oh right, Brother, let's go back. We have to celebrate New Year's Eve with the family tonight," Xia Lin urged.
"Okay," Xia Feng replied.
They returned to the hotel shortly before eleven o'clock.
Jack Ma and others had set up a simple stage in the hotel's grounds, with many other foreign tourists stopping to watch.
"Hey, hey, hey... how's the sound?"
Lei Ming, holding a microphone, shouted from the stage.
"It's good. Sing a song first to test the tuning," Old Wang waved and shouted.
"Okay, then I'll sing 'Rats Love Rice' for everyone," Lei Ming replied to Old Wang with a smile.
"Music!" Lei Ming shouted on stage.
"Get down! It's not calibrated yet. And 'Rats Love Rice'? Who the hell loves your rice?" Jack Ma cursed from below.
"Then you're still using it," Lei Ming said, not getting angry at all, maintaining his smile.
This was one of Lei Ming's good points; no matter what you said, he always had a smile, giving people a kind and approachable impression.
Since arriving at the villa, he had never argued with anyone.
"Fine, you're tough. I'll have all your rice removed tomorrow. It's 2022 tomorrow, and all contracts will be terminated," Jack Ma said, threatening Lei Ming as he saw him about to retort.
"Don't worry, if it gets removed, I'll give you full support. I've got the traffic flow completely under control," Penguin Ma said in support of Lei Ming.
"You're not sincere, unless you place your two miracle drugs in my care," Lei Ming said, putting down the microphone and walking towards the audience.
Penguin Ma's face turned pale with anger. He cursed, "I'm trying to help you out of good intentions, and you're still eyeing my miracle drugs? Don't you have any yourself?"
"Yes, I do. Didn't I just say? You're placing them in my care, not giving them to me," Lei Ming nodded and explained.
"Get lost, you idiot. I'm helping you, and I have to give up something as well?"
Penguin Ma was so angry he cursed incessantly. Only a complete idiot would say such a shameless thing.
"Haha, serves you right," Jack Ma laughed heartily.
