Chapter 158 Liyue’s Problem
Chapter 158 Liyue’s Problem
Kong ignored the fallen Xingqiu. He casually looked at the scenery around him. Suddenly, he found something that interested him, so he quickly ran towards it.
"Towards the stars and the abyss, welcome to the Adventurer's Association." Catherine said with a smile.
"I saw a Catherine in Mond, so what is your name?"
Catherine tilted her head, still smiling, and said, "My name is Catherine, just Catherine."
Kong wanted to ask more, but Sister Lan, who was standing beside him, waved at him. Kong thought for a moment and walked in front of Sister Lan. He asked her, "Are you the president of this Adventurer's Association?"
Sister Lan nodded and said, "Yes, I am the president of the Adventurer's Association of Liyue. You can call me Sister Lan."
"So what's the situation with Liyue's president, Catherine? Why do I feel that Catherine is not like a human?" Kong didn't have the habit of calling others sister, so he raised his question.
Sister Lan didn't pay attention to what Kong said. She answered Kong: "Regarding your question, I can only say that Catherine is a man-made person. I don't know anything else."
"So which country provided Catherine's technology? And who founded the Adventurer's Association and where?" Kong asked.
Sister Lan hesitated a bit and did not answer Kong's question. This scene made Kong alert. He turned to look at Catherine. He suddenly thought of something and then looked at Sister Lan seriously and asked, "The Adventurer's Association was established by the Winter People in the Seven Kingdoms, right?"
Seeing that Kong had already guessed it, Sister Lan could only nod helplessly. Seeing that the current situation was consistent with her guess, Kong instantly lost interest in continuing to communicate with Sister Lan.
Kong completely looked down on people like Sister Lan. She knew that the Adventurer's Association was essentially an organization established by the Winter People. So to some extent, she was a traitor in Liyue, and she did it knowingly.
However, what made Kong even more dissatisfied was the inaction of Liyue's top leaders. It was obvious that Liyue's top leaders must have known about Zhidong's actions, but they had no intention of stopping it, or they might have been bribed.
Kong suddenly had an idea, and the corners of his mouth began to curl up involuntarily.
Sister Lan didn’t know what Kong was thinking, she just felt that Kong was thinking about something bad.
After making a preliminary plan in his mind, he took one last look at the Adventurer's Association and left.
Kong disappeared from the spot in an instant, and this scene shocked everyone who saw it.
Inside the Hall of Rebirth
Zhongli was sitting on a chair in the hall, holding the teacup in one hand and the lid in the other. Just as he was quietly sipping his tea, Kong appeared on a chair on the other side, holding a cup of milk tea in his hand.
Zhongli was not surprised by Kong's sudden appearance. He just drank a sip of tea calmly and put the cup on the table. He looked at Kong and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
Kong nodded, put the cup of milk tea aside and said, "I just walked around Liyue for a while, and then I found a lot of problems. This problem may not be a big deal now, but if I leave Liyue, this problem will be infinitely magnified."
"I am very dissatisfied with this Liyue, so I will help you transition society to the next stage."
Zhongli paused before continuing, "Then can you tell me about Liyue's current problems? I'm still very curious about this."
"Regarding this, I can only say that if you continue to lead Liyue, this won't be a problem." Kong picked up the milk tea cup and took a sip, then continued: "Regarding Liyue's problem, it's very simple. Look at the current Liyue Seven Stars. How many people don't have family support behind them?"
“Oh, I remember that Tianquan Ningguang started from scratch, and everything she has now is due to herself.” Zhongli took the teacup and retorted.
Sora shook his finger at Zhongli. He explained, "You only look at the present. You don't look to the future."
"What do you think of the Seven Stars now?"
"I think they are very good. They each have their own ideas. The current Yuheng Star even asked me about the future of Liyue." Zhongli had no opinion on the current Seven Stars.
"Well, there is nothing wrong with the current Seven Stars, but what about their successors? Don't think that the next Seven Stars will satisfy you. You should know how the Seven Stars select the next generation."
Zhongli immediately understood the crux of the matter. He frowned and said in a serious tone, "The Seven Stars were appointed by me. If I leave, then..."
"Then the Seven Stars will be appointed by the Seven Stars. They may be selected in a fair manner at the beginning, but after two or three generations, the positions of the Seven Stars will always be in the hands of the big families." When Kong said this, there was a strange smile on his face. "By that time, Liyue will be directly under their control."
Zhongli pondered for a while before continuing, "There are immortals in Liyue. They can ensure that there are no problems with Liyue's direction."
Hearing this, Kong couldn't help but sneer. He shook the cup of milk tea in his hand and said, "Immortals, the power of immortals is not greater than that of the Seven Stars. Moreover, although immortals live longer, they will not handle Liyue's affairs at all. They can only leave it to the people of Liyue to handle. How can he guarantee that the next one will not continue to be corrupt?"
This time Zhongli was silent for a longer time. Finally, he nodded to Kong and said, "I understand. I admit that you are right. The future development of Liyue is indeed prone to the problems you mentioned. So what methods can you use to solve them? You should have a method to solve Liyue's shortcomings."
"Of course, the reason I came here is for this." Kong chuckled and said, "However, I won't tell you my plan now. You just have to promise not to interfere with my decision."
"Also, when my plan is completed, you can get real peace."
Zhongli raised his eyebrows. He didn’t quite believe what Kong said. After all, he didn’t give any specific plan. What if he let a wolf into the house?
Kong looked at Zhongli's unbelieving eyes. He had no choice but to take out a red book, hand it to Zhongli, and then said, "I won't say anything more. You will understand everything after you finish reading this book."
After Zhongli took the book, he moved his suspicious eyes away and then moved his gaze to the book in his hand. He saw that the title of the book was "Communism".
Then it's time to read.
