Chapter 717 The best candidate
Master Xuanyun shook his head. He no longer had the desire to survive. Think about his life and fought with various factions of the Temple of Heaven in pursuit of faith. However, now it seems that it is nothing more than a waste.
Now, he let go of everything.
"Saint, you are still young..." The old man smiled indifferently.
"The history of the Temple of Heaven has been erased, and the things you know are too few."
"So, you're confused now, are you?"
Shangguan Yao nodded slightly.
"I've met Chen Lu before. Now he seems to be carrying the Heavenly Temple Council on his back and doing something that goes against the Heavenly Temple's beliefs."
"That's right." Elder Xuanyun coughed, and became even weaker.
"The Temple of Heaven is divided into four factions, one of which is what you know, is the current Temple of Heaven, which advocates the rule of inaction and balances the major forces on the entire Kyushu continent to reduce war."
"But, in fact, there are three factions that have failed and faded out of people's sight."
"However, they have developed silently, and their current strength is stronger than before."
"There are three factions?" Shangguan Yao was a little surprised.
Although she faintly felt that there were some other people, she didn't expect so many.
The old man nodded and smiled slightly, "Yes, I am one of these three sects. Although Chen Lu is my disciple, he has a different belief from me. Many years ago, he had already left me."
"I'm a lonely man now."
Shangguan Yao blinked, "Master Xuanyun, can I ask, what is your belief?"
"Cough cough!" Master Xuanyun coughed violently twice again.
His face was a little purple, and he was obviously in poor health. "Nothing is wrong, my belief is very simple. I think that if you want ordinary people on the Jiuzhou Continent to live a good life, then you need a strong iron fist. First, you must unify the Jiuzhou Continent."
"After unification, choose a wise king and establish order..."
Speaking of this, he shook his head slightly, "Actually, until Fang Hao appeared, I think my belief is correct."
"What does this have to do with Fang Hao?" Shangguan Yao was very puzzled.
In fact, theoretically speaking, she thought Master Xuanyun’s starting point was good and his ideas were feasible. The problem was that it was too difficult to choose a wise king.
The Jiuzhou Continent was unified, but it was not divided in the end.
The people are not living better.
Master Xuanyun smiled bitterly, "Maybe, you think I'm terminally ill and can't go anywhere."
"Actually, I can go out. In a short period of time, I can suppress the toxicity on my body."
"Since Fang Hao appeared, I have been to Qingyang City. I discovered something that the residents of Qingyang City are very happy and their lives are so good."
"In my house, there are many historical books, which are part of the history erased by the Temple of Heaven and other countries. If you have time, you can take a look. In thousands of years of history, no one has ever done that like Fang Hao, a big killer weapon is not his most powerful. His humanistic beliefs are what makes him truly different from others."
"So, later I was shaken. It is easy to unify the Jiuzhou continent, but rebuilding order is the most difficult."
"And now, I think Fang Hao is the best candidate."
After hearing this, Shangguan Yao's expression became softer.
Before, she thought that Master Xuanyun was doing something to seek power and profit. Now it seems that he is fighting for billions of civilians in the Jiuzhou Mainland.
Regardless of whether his belief is right or wrong, his starting point is good.
"Master Xuanyun, I misunderstood you."
"But... do you know what Chen Lu is doing now?"
The old man was silent for a moment, "Actually, I don't know what he is doing, but I guess he probably wanted to provoke fighting among countries on the Kyushu continent, let them kill each other and weaken the strength of each country."
"Finally, the Heavenly Temple unifies the Jiuzhou Continent."
"The same idea as my previous ideas are different. The same thing is to achieve the unification of the Jiuzhou Continent. The difference is that Chen Lu is very ambitious and wants to be the emperor himself."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yao roughly understood.
Chen Lu's strength is still weak, and he cannot unify the Jiuzhou Continent, so he leverages the power to fight.
Instigate various countries to fight and reap the benefits of fishermen.
The old man shook his head again, "His Majesty, you don't have to worry too much. Although Chen Lu is ambition and lacks strength, he can't make up any big waves, or he can't beat Fang Hao."
Shangguan Yao thought for a while, "So, what are the beliefs of the other two factions of the Heavenly Temple?"
"The other two factions have disappeared for nearly a thousand years." The old man sighed softly.
"One of the factions believes that the precepts of the weak are due to human nature. We must follow human nature and allow the strong to survive. Ordinary people are not only weak in martial arts but also in intelligence. They should be eliminated. Only by accelerating the elimination process can humans make faster progress."
"The practice of this faction is very cruel, so it was expelled from the Temple of Heaven at the beginning."
"As for what they are doing now, I don't know whether it still exists. I have searched for them and found nothing."
"Oh." Shangguan Yao thought about something.
The beliefs of this faction are a bit terrifying, and from a value perspective, they are difficult to accept.
Even though they pointed out one of the natural essences of human nature, there was no imperial power in ancient and modern times, and they dared to directly uphold this concept.
"So, what about the other one?"
The old man gasped for a while and continued, "The other faction acted very gently. Their belief was to change the imperial power of the entire Jiuzhou Continent and establish a new order. As for what this new order is, I don't know very well."
"However, I guess, there is a little Legalism and a little Confucianism."
Hearing this, Shangguan Yao roughly understood.
The Temple of Heaven is divided into four, each of which is in power, one is in light and three is in darkness. This is the current situation. Master Xuanyun does not know the heads of the other two sects, nor does he know where they are.
From this point of view, the situation in the Kyushu continent was even more complicated than she expected.
The old man looked at Shangguan Yao and smiled slightly, "I heard that you get along well with Fang Hao. I have to say that Fang Hao's appearance is an anomaly. If Fang Hao unified the Jiuzhou Continent, it might be the best ending."
Shangguan Yao shook her head, "Maybe you don't know Fang Hao, he has no interest in imperial power."
"You can influence him in this regard." Master Xuanyun looked very serious.
"Think about it, if Fang Hao unified the Jiuzhou Continent, would the people live better? He has this strength, his character and character are impeccable, and he is a rare person."
If Fang Hao heard Master Xuanyun's words, he would definitely have a headache. Unifying the Jiuzhou Continent is not the other Fang Hao's dish.
Moreover, Master Xuanyun also let Shangguan Yao blow the wind in his ears.
Disrespect for the old man!
