Chapter 621: Becoming a Famous King
"The people's hearts are like water, which can carry a boat or overturn it. If you want to achieve a rule that will last forever, you can only make the people dull and never enlightened. But Emperor Yizong did the opposite, and announced the sequence to the world, spreading the sparks everywhere."

Zhang Fengyue asked: "Why do you think Emperor Yizong did this?"

why?
Two answers instantly emerged in Li Jun's mind.

Either the Emperor Yizong was extremely wise, with a courage and mind as broad as the sea, and would rather give up the rule of his own dynasty in exchange for the grand scene of everyone in the world being like a dragon.

Or they were extremely stupid and chose to make such a decision that would only end up taking poison to quench thirst in order to reverse the decline of the empire.

But how could an emperor who was able to lead the Ming Empire to a revival and was regarded by later generations as a "perfect man" with almost no flaws be a fool?
But for an emperor, the laws established by his ancestors and the country are undoubtedly more important than anything else.

If he were in his shoes, Li Jun thought he couldn't use the family fortune accumulated by more than a dozen generations to do good deeds that would benefit the world.

Human nature is evil. People will fight to the death for even the slightest bit of money, let alone a vast empire with abundant resources?

If Emperor Yizong was truly a living saint and was willing to give up the Zhu family's kingdom, then why would he waste his energy trying to revive the Ming Dynasty?
Therefore, these two answers seem particularly shallow and powerless when applied to Emperor Yizong.

But what other reason could there be?
Suddenly, Li Jun had an idea, and an idea that he had never had before suddenly popped up in his mind.

That is, the sequence was not created by Emperor Yizong, but had already appeared in the empire. Moreover, during his reign, the spread of the sequence had developed to an unstoppable level.

Only in this way would Emperor Yizong come up with the idea of ​​"it is better to loosen than to block" and simply go with the flow, set up the twelve sequences for all walks of life, and achieve this unprecedented achievement in civil and military governance.

And use this to push their own momentum and power to the peak, use the imperial framework to accommodate various sequences, and extend the life of the empire as much as possible.

Thinking of this, Li Jun suddenly felt enlightened, as if the heavy fog that shrouded his eyes suddenly dissipated.

"Emperor Yizong knew he couldn't stop it."

"Of course he can't stop it."

Zhang Fengyue nodded and said, "From tribes to countries, from stone axes to iron tools, from hunting to battle formations, from eating raw meat and drinking blood to eating fine meat, from barbarism and faithlessness to numerous religious sects, from Cangjie's creation of characters to the contention of a hundred schools of thought, our sequence came from the nature of heaven and earth and the thoughts of human hearts, without relying on some external things. Even the emperor of the world could not stop it, so he made the most correct choice at that time."

Zhang Fengyue said solemnly: "But at the same time, the emperor also saw another possibility."

"What do you mean?"

“No one can keep the people dull forever and never enlighten them. Mountains and rivers change, dynasties come and go, and the world is divided and united. This is an irrefutable law.”

Zhang Fengyue said in a deep voice: "But after the sequence appeared, it made it possible for the eternal lineage to be realized."

Li Jun sneered: "How can this be possible? Unless he can become a god above heaven and earth!"

"In the eyes of mortals, you and I are now gods."

The smile on Li Jun's lips faded, and he turned his head to look at Zhang Fengyue's profile.

The old man looked at the city below the tall building and remained silent.

"Even if he had such an idea, it seems that he has already failed. He has been dead for hundreds of years. He has been reincarnated as a ghost countless times. How can he become a god?"

Li Jun forced a smile and said, "Besides, the current royal family is in a difficult situation, let alone a dynasty that will last forever. I'm afraid that's an exaggeration. Lord Zhang, you should know this situation better than me. If there are any tricks hidden in the royal family, how can they escape your eyes? I think we should stop worrying about it here."

"You are right. Perhaps I am really old and my temperament has become suspicious. I think everyone I see is hiding a conspiracy."

Zhang Fengyue smiled and raised his wrist towards Li Jun, "Now it's your turn to ask questions."

"I"

Li Jun hesitated for a long time.

In fact, in his opinion, there was no need to ask any further.

In today's question and answer session, Zhang Fengyue didn't need me to give him the answer at all.

He was just telling himself some things in this way.

Li Jun's lips moved, but after a moment he shook his head and said, "I don't have any problem anymore."

"I thought you would ask me why I told you all these things. It seems that you already have the answer to this question."

Zhang Fengyue laughed: "Since you have no more questions, I won't take advantage of you any more. I will ask you one last question."

"Please go ahead. I'm listening. But first, if it's a difficult question, I can't answer it."

Li Jun closed his eyes and looked at the rolling mountains under the distant sky.

"Whether this question is difficult or not depends on you, not me."

Zhang Fengyue stood up and walked to the broken wall.

"Li Jun, do you think it's better to be a human or a god?"

Zhang Fengyue spoke slowly, and every word he uttered revealed an unspeakable sense of vicissitudes.

It's a question, but it's also like asking yourself.

Li Jun withdrew his gaze and fixed it on the thin and shriveled figure, a smile slowly spreading across the corners of his mouth.

"Of course I would rather be a god."

"So that's how it is. I understand now."

Although Zhang Fengyue's voice was extremely flat and without any emotion.

But in Li Jun's sight, he could still clearly notice that the person's hands were behind his back, and his palms were bent for a moment.

"But, I think being a human being is not bad." Li Jun suddenly changed the subject.

Zhang Fengyue slightly turned sideways, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Li Jun, are you kidding me?"

"I wouldn't dare."

Li Jun waved his hand and smiled, "This question is really too confusing. No matter whether I choose left or right, there is a cliff ahead. I feel like if I say one wrong word, I might end up lying here today, so I really don't know how to answer."

"Do you think I'm plotting against you?"

"I didn't say that, it's just that I've been cheated too many times, so I have to be on guard."

Zhang Fengyue asked coldly: "So, you are not going to answer this question?"

"Answer it. Who said no? Sir Zhang, you showed up in person today to answer my questions. I have to accept this honor. So I must answer this question, but I won't make this choice."

Zhang Fengyue frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

"I am just an ordinary person who worked my way up from the streets. I really don't understand such invisible and intangible issues as 'human gods'."

Li Jun smiled and said, "I feel happy when I meet my beloved, angry when I encounter injustice, sad when my relatives pass away, and happy when I meet old friends again. I want to ask Master Zhang, does the god you mentioned do this?"

Zhang Fengyue asked back: "With emotions such as joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, can it still be considered a god?"

"If it doesn't count, then what's the point of this god?"

Li Jun raised his head and crossed his legs. "As for me, I have a lot of blood on my body and a lot of debts to repay. I think it's good enough if I can treat people as understanding in this life."

"Is this your way?" Zhang Fengyue turned around and asked with a smile.

"So whether people and gods are good or bad is not the point. The key is whether I am willing to be this god!"

Li Jun said firmly: "I don't want to, God is not as good as man. I want to, I am God."

"As expected of a member of the Hunwu Order, such a tough guy, such a big temper!"

Zhang Fengyue said with a hint of sarcasm: "Have you ever heard of the saying that when you are in the arena, you have no choice?"

"That goes without saying."

Li Jun raised his eyebrows and said without hesitation: "We can only see whose fist is harder."

"it is good!"

Zhang Fengyue laughed out loud, with a rare hint of heroism on his face.

"There is no good or bad, only willing or unwilling. With your words, today's meeting was not in vain."

Zhang Fengyue turned around and faced Li Jun, the smile in his eyes slowly fading.

"Li Jun, no matter what I said to you today, whether it's right or wrong, I didn't mean to drag you down with me. You are in the martial arts world, so take care of your grievances and hatreds. I am in the government, so naturally I should shoulder the responsibility of saving the people of the world."

Zhang Fengyue said softly: "The reason why I came to see you today is because of a selfish motive."

Upon hearing this, Li Jun stood up and looked at the old man in front of him seriously.

"Siyuan's path is different from mine. I don't know where he will go in the future. But I can foresee that it will be difficult for him. Because he is my son, Zhang Fengyue." The old man's eyes were soft, and he said slowly: "I owe him too much, and I should try my best to make up for it. But in fact, he has been making up for me as a father. I know what Siyuan thinks. He wants me to enjoy my old age and wait for the day when the coffin is closed, I can also go peacefully. Instead of going to the underworld with a bad reputation and being poked in the spine by others."

Li Jun remained silent and listened quietly.

"If you feel that what I said today is useful to you and can barely be considered a favor, then when Siyuan needs it someday, I hope you can return the favor to him."

"Pity the hearts of parents in the world."

Li Jun clasped his hands and said, "I will definitely return this favor to him."

"Yes, pity the world."

Zhang Fengyue turned around slowly and looked down at the city under the imperial city.

Suddenly, the originally silent city suddenly lit up with sparks of fire, as if it had finally awakened from its deep sleep.

Wisps of smoke flew out of the windows and condensed into the sky. Even in this palace that reached into the sky, one could still smell the strong scent of fireworks.

"Brother Jun."

"Li Jun."

"teacher"

"uncle."

At this moment, there seemed to be a constant call ringing in Li Jun's ears.

Among these voices were those of both men and women, some familiar, some unfamiliar, but they all became clearer and clearer with the dancing flames, melting the ice and snow all over the city.

"It seems that your relatives and friends can't wait any longer, so I won't keep you any longer."

Zhang Fengyue smiled and said, "If I have the opportunity to leave the temple one day, I will definitely come to see the world you mentioned."

"Goodbye, Mr. Prime Minister Zhang, please give us little people some breathing room."

Li Jun's whole body seemed to be burning with invisible flames, burning and distorting the surrounding space, and his figure quickly faded in the firelight.

"Boy, since your martial arts world doesn't like me, forget it, but there is one thing you have to promise me."

Zhang Fengyue said in a clear voice: "In the past in the Japanese area, Lord Su Xiong once gave you the title of the fourth-ranked Salary Lord. Today, I also want to follow his example and do something that will go down in history!"

Li Jun, who was now escaping from this illusion, felt his senses become blurred.

In a daze, he saw Zhang Fengyue standing with his back to him, his hands behind his back, facing the raging fire and the calls all over the city.

Faintly, Li Jun heard an old and heroic voice.

"Wu San, the lone warrior, shall be the king of the revolution!"

boom!
As the Moqi Whale dropped the last shell loaded in his body to the ground, the thick smoke in the air was torn apart by the rising flesh and blood tentacles.

The tentacles were ferocious, with sharp white bones growing at the ends, like long spears.

In order to bomb Jichang, Moqijing maintained his huge Kun form, and was now a living target in the air. But it was too late to transform into the Peng form, which was good at speed.

Just when the Moqi Whale was about to be pierced by the tentacles, a ray of blue sword light arrived in time.

Pfft!

Dozens of tentacles were cut off in mid-air, and smelly blood fell like rain.

Chen Qisheng's solemn gaze fell below him. At this moment, Xin'an City was filled with a very strong burnt smell, and the red mist from the evaporating blood almost dyed the entire city blood red.

The boiling flames lost their supply and were quickly extinguished by the continuous beatings of the flesh and blood farmers. One after another, the hideous-looking farm beasts crawled out from the cracks in the fields again.

The fierce bombing emptied out the stocks of Moqijing, but it seemed to have no impact on the mill field at all.

"Is there still no solution?"

Chen Qisheng's face turned pale and he frowned.

Just when he was at a loss, he was shocked to see something strange happening in the field.

The fields of flesh and blood were surging and heaving like boiling water, and the newly born farm animals let out uneasy growls at the same time, and all turned their heads to look towards the center of the millet field.

Those severed tentacles swung wildly, recovered at an incredible speed, changed direction, and pierced into the same place one after another.

Pieces of flesh flew everywhere and blood spurted out.

The entire Jichang was behaving like a crazy self-mutilation, as if trying to stop an enemy that was breaking through from the inside out.

"Brother Jun?!"

Chen Qisheng's eyes suddenly lit up, and the veins on the back of his hand holding the sword jumped. The true Qi condensed behind him dissipated into a group of Zhenwu heroic spirits, guarding the surroundings.

But just as he was about to take action, a black and red bolt of lightning suddenly burst out from the field of flesh and blood, piercing through the sky and the earth.

boom!
In an instant, the entire mill was frozen in time. The next moment, a violent impact started from the hole created by the thunder, sweeping across an area of ​​dozens of feet.

Whether it was the tentacles covered with hard bone armor or the fields of flesh and blood with strong recovery capabilities, they were instantly cut into pieces of flesh as thin as hair by the impact and scattered in all directions.

A tremendous amount of ferocity surged in like a vast ocean, and where the black and red lightning disappeared, a human figure appeared.

Li Jun's black hair fluttered in the strong wind, his naked upper body was covered with scars of corrosion, and he stood there like an abyss or an ocean, giving people an endless sense of oppression.

Even Chen Qisheng felt a little breathless.

"Master Ma, take a nap first. After I kill these beasts, I will send you to the East Branch."

Li Jun looked down at the ink armor core in his palm, which was shaped like a broken sword, and whispered to himself.

The broken sword trembled slightly, as if in response.

"Don't worry, this time we will definitely wipe out their country and their entire family!"

Li Jun grinned, then took a deep breath, breathing the smell of blood and smoke in Xin'an City into his lungs. There seemed to be a flame burning in his pupils.

"Want to run?"

Black and red lightning flashed, and Li Jun's figure suddenly appeared somewhere in the city. He landed, leaned over and punched the ground.

boom!
Like a huge rock falling into a lake, the millet field shook and surged, and the bursting blood spurted up several feet, and the range of erosion was even larger than the coverage of the Moqijing shells.

The dirt, sand and rocks that were covered under the fields of blood and flesh flew up, broken flesh filled the fields, and the sky and the earth were dimly lit.

An uncontrollable shrill scream was heard, and it was Tian Chou's voice.

On the muddy ground soaked with blood, a pool of rotten flesh slowly condensed into a human figure. Before the facial features appeared, it knelt on the ground in panic and kowtowed to Li Jun repeatedly.

The intense fear that surged in his heart made Tian Chou no longer have any thought of resisting.

The indescribable pressure pressing down on him made Tian Chou feel like a fish thrown ashore, about to suffocate, unable to swim freely in the fields of flesh and blood.

That extremely sharp force was unstoppable. It attached to the torn flesh and blood, leaving no possibility of recovery.

Jichang, which had lost its ability to recover and hide, was no longer a threat to Li Jun.

"Please, spare me."

Tian Chou's facial features gradually became clearer on his skinned, scarlet face. But before he could finish begging for mercy, Li Jun stepped on his head.

The powerful force rushed down like a thousand knives, cutting the fields into a pool of blood and minced meat.

[Get 100 mastery points]

[282 mastery points remaining]

[Martial arts skill 'Breaking Power' has been learned (Taotie Ingestion)]

Li Jun ignored the tiny words that appeared in his eyes, and his gaze swept over the faces of Shen Li and Wang Qi who had just arrived.

"Go, kill people."

Facing their fiery gazes, Li Jun reached out and grabbed their shoulders, then leaped into the sky.

When he landed on the back of the Moqijing, Zou Sijiu and Chen Qisheng were already waiting there.

When their eyes met, there was no need for further words.

Zheng!
The Moqi Whale swung its Kun tail, and its body shape shrank and changed rapidly. A pair of iron wings stretched out from its sides, splitting the wind and cutting the clouds. Ripples of air circles exploded behind it, and it headed straight for the northwest!
