Chapter 62 The Cake is Here!
Seeing Fan Xian's wide eyes, Li Yuan smiled faintly:
"To put it bluntly, what humanity truly needs is... evolution!"
"Only by becoming strong can you be free from the constraints of your environment and the limitations of others, eating whatever you want and going wherever you want!"
He extended his hand to Fan Xian, looking at him intently:
"Join me and join the glorious evolution!"
"Not just you, I want all of humanity to join this evolution!"
Fan Xian stared blankly at Li Yuan, blinking hundreds of times before hesitantly asking, "Uh... so, what do you want to do?"
Li Yuan wore a satisfied smile, standing with his hands behind his back, seemingly already confident of success.
"First and foremost, we must build schools!"
"All of them! Remember, all of them!"
"All children must go to school, where they will learn both literature and martial arts!"
"This generation is no good. My goal is—the next generation, everyone must be able to use true qi!"
"True Qi is the greatest gain humanity received after the nuclear war hundreds of thousands of years ago!"
"This path of self-strengthening could very well become a new system for humanity!"
"Of course, the original scientific system cannot be abandoned either."
"However, it must complement the true qi system and must never have a counterproductive effect!"
At this point, Li Yuan glanced at Fan Xian:
"That's why I destroyed that Barrett."
"If even the most powerful grandmasters in the current true qi system are afraid of a mere Barrett rifle, what kind of behavior is that!"
"If everyone believed that having a gun was enough to defeat a Grandmaster, then who would bother to diligently cultivate true qi?!"
"Do you think a Grandmaster is really afraid of Barrett?"
"Are the bullets fired by Barrett more powerful than Wu Zhu's attacks?"
"A Grandmaster can block and dodge Wu Zhu's attacks, so why would he be afraid of bullets?"
Seeing Fan Xian's bewildered expression, Li Yuan shook his head and said:
"To be honest, it's just a matter of habit; they just suffered because they weren't familiar with it."
"The bullets fired by Barrett, just like Wu Zhu's attacks, lacked any true energy."
"Apart from a handful of people who have fought Wu Zhu a few times, most martial artists in the world are more accustomed to attacks that involve internal energy."
"Take Yan Xiaoyi for example. Why is he the best archer in the world? Besides his superb archery skills, it's also because of his ninth-rank martial arts cultivation!"
"Every arrow he fired was imbued with extremely powerful internal energy!"
"If he lost his true energy, there would be several archers better than him if one wanted to find them."
At this point, Li Yuan looked at Fan Xian again:
"Now, do you understand?"
"It is precisely because Barrett's bullets do not contain true energy that he has been able to achieve such remarkable feats."
"If you add true energy to the bullet, it won't hit a real master at all."
Seeing Fan Xian nod thoughtfully, Li Yuancai continued:
"Very well, let's get back to the school."
"There will be no shortage of problems to solve in order to achieve my desired goals."
"Communication with the child's parents, the child's food and accommodation, and future employment are all issues that need to be addressed."
"Of course, the first things that need to be in place are money and regulation."
Li Yuan reached out and patted Fan Xian on the shoulder:
"And both of these things are related to you in some way."
"Where will the money come from?"
"Naturally, it's the inner treasury. Where else could it be?"
"Who will oversee all of this?"
"Since the Control Yuan's existing system is right here, why not make use of it?"
"So, do you understand now?"
Fan Xian's forehead instantly broke out in a cold sweat: "I..."
However, Li Yuan waved his hand, directly interrupting him:
"I know what you're trying to say, it's just about decentralization."
"However, I have other things to do and don't have time to oversee these things one by one."
"Therefore, I need a person in charge who can oversee all of this."
"That person is you."
At this point, his aura suddenly exploded, causing the entire Xingqing Palace to tremble instantly: "I don't care about the process in between, I only care about the result!"
He stared into Fan Xian's eyes and said slowly but firmly and decisively:
"My goal must be achieved! No one can stand in its way!"
"Please believe me, I really will kill! And please believe me, I absolutely have the ability to kill whoever I want to kill!"
"Therefore, please convey what you believe to those who are actually handling the work, and let them believe it as well!"
"Do your job with care, and you'll be rewarded if you do it well."
"If you don't put your heart into your work and mess things up, I don't need to elaborate on the consequences."
boom!
As soon as the words were spoken, the entire roof of Xingqing Palace vanished! Warm and bright sunlight streamed in, shining on the two of them.
In the dazzling golden light, Li Yuan looked into Fan Xian's eyes again: "Do you understand now?"
Fan Xian paused for a moment, then nodded vigorously without saying a word.
Seeing this, Li Yuan smiled with satisfaction.
……
The Fan residence.
Li Yuan, his father Prince Jing, Fan Jian, Chen Pingping, and Ye Zhong, among others, gathered together.
It can be said that, apart from Li Yuan, the people present were the ones who controlled the largest and most powerful military force in the Qing Kingdom.
Originally, in addition to the Ye family, the military of Qing Kingdom also included the Qin family.
However, because of Ye Qingmei's death, the Qin family has now been purged by Chen Pingping and others.
Li Yuancai ignored these trivial matters; his presence there was actually a farewell to Prince Jing.
"The cake is here!"
Suddenly, a cheerful shout came from outside the door.
When the door opened, Fan Xian pushed a small cart in, carrying a cake that was as big as ten layers of a steamer.
His gaze swept around the room before finally settling on Li Yuan: "Brother Yuan, please help us distribute the cake."
As he spoke, he handed over a long, clean-looking, gleaming knife.
Li Yuan took the long sword, looked at the cake, and then turned his gaze to Fan Xian: "Did you make this cake yourself?"
Fan Xian was slightly taken aback, then quickly shook his head: "No, I instructed the servants to do it."
"I see." Li Yuan nodded expressionlessly, raised his arm, and brought his long sword down suddenly.
A dazzling flash of light instantly blinded everyone present, including Fan Xian and Ye Zhong, who both possessed ninth-grade martial arts cultivation.
When they came to their senses, they found that Li Yuan had already disappeared.
Along with the cakes, the vast majority of them also disappeared.
The cart that was supposed to hold the cakes was now empty, with only a small piece of cake, about the size of a palm, remaining.
Looking at the elders in the room who were exchanging bewildered glances, Fan Xian chuckled and said, "It's alright, I'll have the servants make another one. They're quite skilled now, it'll be ready soon."
……
In a very inconspicuous corner of Kyoto, near the city wall, there is a simple shed where porridge is being distributed.
By this time, a long queue had already formed in front of the porridge stall.
Many ragged, emaciated adults and children were constantly looking ahead, swallowing their saliva as they waited for the spoon full of thin porridge to be served to them.
call--
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, making it impossible for everyone present to open their eyes.
The wind comes quickly and goes quickly.
When people's vision cleared again, they were surprised to find that a strange thing had appeared next to the large pot of thin porridge.
That thing was the size of a steamer basket, it looked completely white, and it smelled like it was filled with... a smell that made people's mouths water!
……
Inside the temple in the far north.
Li Yuan tossed the power furnace he'd obtained from Wu Zhu's body into his hand and laughed, "Well? Did I keep my word?"
The temple avatar, entirely formed of golden light points and appearing to be dressed in ancient robes with wide sleeves, projected a beam of light from its eyes, scanned the power reactor in Li Yuan's hand, and then spoke:
"That's right, this is the power source inside its body."
Li Yuanshun pulled over a chair and sat down with an air of authority:
"This must be very important to you, right?"
"Solar energy alone is not enough to repair the damage you've caused over the years."
"So, let's make another deal."
"How about you follow my instructions, as long as it doesn't violate your most fundamental logic?"
The tall, celestial-like temple avatar hovered in mid-air, its robes fluttering. After a long silence, it spoke without any emotion:
"The temple agrees."
Li Yuan's lips curled slightly, revealing a satisfied smile, before he closed his eyes.
Within the silvery starry sea.
Li Yuan from Joy of Life, Li Yuan from Fist of Destiny, and Li Yuan from Wasteland all appear here together.
Just then, two silver stars in different directions suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, looking like two silver suns!
The next moment, amidst the scattered silver starlight, two figures swiftly solidified from the ethereal and materialized!
