After a moment, her eyes lit up, and she asked, "Do you have a way to achieve this relatively fair and democratic system?"
"Of course!"
Li Yao nodded.
Actually, that's why he came to see Bai Suzhen this time.
He knew that Bai Suzhen was a pure person, just like Yuan Zong in the world of A Step into the Past, who was willing to shed blood and sacrifice his life for his ideals, regardless of the cost.
With Bai Suzhen's assistance, his plan could be realized.
Li Yao smiled and said, "If the majority wants to achieve relative fairness and democracy, the interests, even the lives and souls, of a minority must be sacrificed. Moreover, you will need to make some sacrifices yourself..."
Bai Suzhen immediately interrupted seriously, saying, "It doesn't matter. As long as relative fairness and democracy can be achieved, I would not hesitate to sacrifice my life."
"very good!"
Li Yao nodded, then gathered his thoughts and said, "Our first step is to overthrow the dynasty and unify the martial arts world."
In the turbulent world where martial arts flourish, there is no dynasty governed by civil administration, but rather a martial arts dynasty.
In this world, everything is decided by force.
The corrupt martial arts dynasties and the endless strife within the martial arts world are the direct causes of injustice and undemocratic practices in this world.
Only by overthrowing the dynasty and unifying the martial arts world can fairness and democracy be achieved.
Bai Suzhen agreed with this.
Li Yao continued, "The second step is to establish a new dynasty..."
"To establish another dynasty?"
Bai Suzhen frowned and interrupted, "You overthrew one dynasty and then built another. It's just that someone else became the supreme ruler of the martial arts world. What's the difference between this and the past?"
Chapter 256 The Spiritual Leader, Li Yao's Plan
In the world of Fengyun, the Martial Arts Dynasty is equivalent to the legitimate dynasty of Shenzhou.
The emperor of the martial arts dynasty was also known as the supreme ruler of the martial arts world.
However, at this time, the martial arts dynasty's power had declined to its lowest point, suppressed by the powerful Tianxia Society and the Wushuang City.
A perfectly legitimate power was reduced to the third most powerful force.
Nevertheless, the Martial Arts Dynasty still wields considerable influence.
Therefore, Bai Suzhen always wanted to overthrow the martial arts dynasty and establish a new, fair, and democratic order.
She never expected that Li Yao would actually establish a martial arts dynasty.
This is just a change in name only; there's no difference from before.
Li Yao smiled and said, "Of course there is a difference. The new martial arts dynasty will be ruled by me. That is the biggest difference."
Bai Suzhen snorted coldly and curled her lips, saying, "In the end, don't you just want to be the supreme martial arts master?"
"good!"
Li Yao made no attempt to hide it.
In fact, he didn't covet the title of martial arts supreme.
Rather, to achieve relative fairness and democracy, he must become the supreme ruler of the martial arts world.
So he explained:
"As I have told you before, a stable country is necessary to achieve fairness and democracy."
How can a country be fair and democratic when it is unstable?
"The stability of a country requires not only a strong national power, but also a spiritual leader."
"With a spiritual leader, all people will work hard or stay at their posts under the call of the spiritual leader, creating more social wealth and achieving fairness and democracy."
"And I am that spiritual leader!"
Although Bai Suzhen had never heard of some of the new terms Li Yao used, she could understand what he meant.
However, she had a doubt in her mind and asked, "You once said that people's hearts are unpredictable. How can I be sure that after you become the supreme master of the martial arts world, you will definitely stand up for the people and achieve fairness and democracy?"
Li Yao smiled and said, "Therefore, if you want to achieve relative fairness and democracy, you must trust me, just as I trust you will definitely assist me."
Bai Suzhen was taken aback and asked, "Why do you think I will definitely assist you?"
Li Yao said, "Although your actions are contrary to the righteous path, I believe you are a person who 'puts the world first.' For your ideals, you do not care about personal gains or losses, and are even willing to give up everything!"
Bai Suzhen was taken aback. Her style of doing things was too dark and mysterious, completely opposite to that of righteous people.
Therefore, she called herself a 'demon'.
Unexpectedly, Li Yao not only believed in her, but also understood her very well.
While she was pleased, she was also eager to know whether Li Yao could actually achieve relative fairness and democracy.
She then asked, "After establishing a new dynasty, what are your plans?"
Li Yao said, "The third step requires some people to make sacrifices for fairness and democracy. These sacrifices may be cruel, inhumane, or even contrary to the laws of nature, but only in this way can relative fairness and democracy be achieved."
Bai Suzhen became curious and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of sacrifices are required? How cruel are these sacrifices? How do they violate the laws of Heaven?"
Li Yao's expression turned serious, and he said:
“It is not difficult to formulate a fair and democratic system; the difficulty lies in how to promote ‘fair democracy’ in the long term.”
"As I said before, people's hearts are hard to fathom. If we want to promote 'fairness and democracy,' we need specific people and specific officials to accomplish it."
“We cannot guarantee whether these people or these officials are genuinely promoting ‘fair democracy’.”
"However, I can cultivate some puppets who are loyal only to me and let these puppets promote 'fair democracy'."
Bai Suzhen frowned. "A puppet?"
Li Yao said, "I have a divine skill that is quite similar to your Transcendental Skill. I can implant a wisp of divine soul into the brain of another person. The person whose divine soul is implanted will absolutely obey me and do things for me."
Li Yao told Bai Suzhen these things because he valued her abilities.
After all, a person's abilities are limited, and he needs a capable assistant to help him, and Bai Suzhen is an extremely capable assistant.
Since Bai Suzhen cultivated the 'Six Great Demon Crossings', her spiritual power must have been extremely strong.
Li Yao was not sure if he could implant a wisp of divine soul into Bai Suzhen's brain to control her.
Of course, he had no intention of doing so.
After all, Bai Suzhen was a pure person who was willing to give her life for her ideals.
He didn't need to control Bai Suzhen like that.
"You actually know this kind of skill?"
Bai Suzhen felt a chill run down her spine.
This skill is so bizarre and terrifying.
In that case, wouldn't Li Yao be able to control many puppets and use them for his own purposes?
No wonder Li Yao said that his methods were somewhat cruel and even contrary to the laws of nature.
Li Yao smiled slightly and asked, "Demon Lord, do you think my plan is feasible?"
Bai Suzhen sighed and nodded, saying, "If you are truly dedicated to fairness and democracy, and you can indeed control puppets, then your plan is indeed feasible."
Li Yao smiled and said, "Then, would you be willing to cooperate with me to establish a relatively fair and democratic new dynasty?"
Bai Suzhen fell into deep thought.
She thought to herself that if Li Yao's heart was the same as hers, that he was also for 'fairness and democracy', then Li Yao's plan was indeed feasible.
I'm afraid Li Yao has ulterior motives.
After all, as Li Yao himself said, people's hearts are unpredictable.
From what we can see so far, Li Yao's actions have pleased and satisfied her.
However, it's hard to say what will happen in the future.
It seems she needs to stay by Li Yao's side to constantly monitor and remind him, lest he do anything to harm ordinary people.
After thinking it over, she said solemnly, "Okay, I agree, I'll cooperate with you!"
Li Yao smiled with satisfaction.
Actually, he had two more important things that he did not reveal to Bai Suzhen.
Firstly, besides achieving fairness and democracy, the most important aspect of his plan was to take the opportunity to openly and legitimately collect the martial arts and weapons of various martial arts sects.
The martial arts and weapons in the world of Feng Yun are simply abundant.
Secondly, achieving fairness and democracy is not something that can be accomplished overnight; it may take several years, decades, or even centuries.
He doesn't have the patience to stay in the world of turmoil forever.
He planned to find a suitable person and, through 'life-saving', copy his memories into that person's mind.
In other words, he wants to create a copy of himself, leave it in this world, and pass on the "True Scripture of the Great Dao" to the copy so that the copy can live forever.
Then, he left the world of Fengyun and left his clone there to remain as the supreme martial arts master and spiritual leader, continuing to promote fairness and democracy.
Because it is a copy of itself, it completely inherits its own memories.
Therefore, no one could see any flaws.
Of course, Bai Suzhen might be able to see it.
However, that no longer matters.
He will definitely train his clone into an invincible being, one that no one can threaten.
After Li Yao and Bai Suzhen reached a cooperation agreement, they joined forces with Nie Feng, Hei Tong, and others.
Black Eyes has used the Tears of Dharma to detoxify all the innocent people who were poisoned by Bu Jie.
With the matter at Shaolin Temple settled, Li Yao decided to return to Wushuang City to begin planning his scheme to 'overthrow the dynasty and unify the martial arts world'.
