Chapter 591: The Savage Wilderness Arrives, with Danger Lurking Everywhere
Chen Changsheng’s curses made Kong Xuan’s eyelids twitch, and some spittle even landed directly on Kong Xuan’s face.
After cursing for a full half an hour, Chen Changsheng finally calmed the anger in his heart.
Glancing at the “immovable” Kong Xuan, Chen Changsheng said casually, “I know you appreciate talent, and I also know you were preparing for war at that time. Moreover, I understand that before a problem arises, you cannot restrict them according to the rules.”
“In terms of military insight, you are quite unique, but when it comes to governing the world, you still lack a bit of timing.”
“To deal with these kids who grew up in a peaceful era, the most important thing is not to set rules, but to guide their thoughts onto the right path.”
“Since Bai Ze took Qian Ya away, the Heavenly Court’s ideological work has been poor, which is also a reason for the issues within the Sword Qi Great Wall.”
“As the master of the Heavenly Court, foresight is an essential quality for you.”
“Clearly, in this regard, your foresight is lacking.”
After listening to Chen Changsheng’s reprimand, Kong Xuan clasped his hands and said, “Thank you for your guidance!”
Once more glancing at Kong Xuan, Chen Changsheng asked, “Have you found out who the players are?”
“It has all been investigated.”
“How about the confidentiality work?”
“This matter was personally handled by Hu Yan and myself, with the Tiger Cavalry responsible for assistance; there is absolutely no possibility of a leak.”
“Very well, let Yang Jian recruit people from the Netherworld and The World’s No. 1 Spring, to secretly monitor the Mighty Donkey Clan.”
“Once Ma Ling’er is dead, the Mighty Donkey Clan must also disappear from this world.”
Upon hearing this, Kong Xuan’s eyelids twitched slightly.
“The Mighty Donkey Clan will also be taken action against?”
Hearing this, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said, “You should be grateful that the scope of this involvement is still within controllable limits.”
“If it truly escalates to an uncontrollable point, then I will have to recall the Shadow Legion.”
“Is that the Shadow Legion under Emperor Huangtian?”
“Yes.”
“The Shadow Legion is responsible for scouting, assassination, and infiltration. Despite suffering some losses after several major battles, their legacy has not been severed.”
“I heard the Scholar mention recently that the Shadow Legion is becoming increasingly lethal.”
“Dealing with traitors is their old specialty.”
“If this matter is left to them, it certainly won’t proceed as gently as I would.”
Upon hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, Kong Xuan pursed his lips and said, “Ma Ling’er is the heir of the God of Wealth lineage and also the Heavenly Prodigy of the Mighty Donkey Clan.”
“Shouldn’t we reconsider this matter? Recklessly monitoring may chill their hearts.”
“Do not speak of her as the God of Wealth’s heir; even if there is involvement from the God of Wealth lineage, they will escape unscathed.”
“This world is forged from countless rivers of bl**d; no one can act as they please on this land.”
“I have already given her the opportunity; how she acts is her own business.”
“After the Sword Cultivator Conference concludes, everything will settle.”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, Kong Xuan still felt some confusion in his heart.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng looked at him and said, “If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don’t act like a child, hesitating.”
Hearing this, Kong Xuan organized his thoughts and began, “You know that the Savage Wilderness is a malignant tumor; why do you want to leave it behind?”
“There are many ways to nurture future generations; it is not necessary to rely on the Savage Wilderness, this calamity.”
Looking at Kong Xuan, Chen Changsheng fell silent for a moment before speaking, “From the current situation, the Eight Desolates Nine Domains is correct, but the Eight Desolates Nine Domains cannot be eternally correct.”
“Eventually, the system we establish will decay and then be overthrown by a new system.”
“As the saying goes, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse; even if the Heavenly Court becomes utterly decayed in the future, after so much accumulation, there will still be terrifying foundations.”
“When that time comes, the new system will encounter significant resistance when overthrowing the Heavenly Court. They will need the assistance of other forces.”
“If I were to eliminate all opposing forces within the Eight Desolates Nine Domains, then they might seek external forces for support.”
“However, while it’s easy to invite gods, it’s challenging to send them away. How those external forces act at that time is beyond our control.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Kong Xuan’s eyes widened, looking at Chen Changsheng in disbelief.
“You want to destroy the Heavenly Court!”
“It’s not that I want to destroy the Heavenly Court; it’s that the changes of the times will bring an end to the Heavenly Court, much like what happened to the Three Thousand Continents in the past.”
“The Savage Wilderness is undergoing rapid changes under the Heavenly Court’s pressure.”
“If they want to survive under the Heavenly Court’s suppression, they must evolve into a more perfected system and ideology than the Heavenly Court.”
“When that time comes, the Heavenly Court must exit.”
Hearing this, Kong Xuan said anxiously, “But the Heavenly Court is the hard work of all of us; can you really just watch it vanish?”
“How you think is your business, but the Heavenly Court will definitely not perish in my hands.”
Ignoring Kong Xuan’s emotions, Chen Changsheng remained calm and said, “I understand your feelings, but if you truly do this, I believe you will surely face failure just like the Three Thousand Continents once did.”
“When I said I would destroy the remaining forces of the Three Thousand Continents, I mentioned, ‘We are the remnants of the old era; the new era has no ship to carry my sails.’”
“Once you were the new era, but one day, you will also become the remnants of the old era.”
After listening, Kong Xuan fell silent.
“How long do you think this change will take?”
“Three to five decades, or even longer; at least while you are alive, you will not be able to witness it.”
“What if the Savage Wilderness can never let go of its hatred?”
“Then eliminate them!”
Chen Changsheng said with decisive clarity.
“‘The benevolent have no enemies’ is too sentimental and pretentious.”
“But for a future leader, this is something that must be possessed.”
“If the three giants of the Heavenly Court had not held the belief of benevolence, they would have long been at war with the Eight Desolates, and there would not be today’s flourishing.”
“If the Savage Wilderness wants to take over this realm in the future, it must accomplish this point.”
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng paused for a moment before continuing, “As a superior, one must be able to raise the butcher’s kn*fe against enemies and also against one’s own people.”
“In this regard, your timing is insufficient, so I will personally demonstrate for you.”
“If I’m not mistaken, your heart is quite troubled right now; you can’t even clearly determine if those people’s actions are correct.”
“Since you can’t figure it out, then for the time being, don’t think about it.”
“In a few days, you will naturally come to understand.”
Facing Chen Changsheng’s words, Kong Xuan laughed.
“If I don’t figure it out, will you still k*ll me?”
“Not that I would k*ll you, but you must abdicate.”
“That makes sense; if I can’t even think through these issues, then I indeed do not deserve to sit in this position.”
“By the way, I’ve found the person you wanted.”
“Now that you’ve found them, let’s see how this instigator will respond.”
