Do you believe in science or God?
"Science, science, science! I believe in science! Please stop hitting me! Ah, I love science!"
"Yes, I believe in science, I really believe in science, hahaha... Please stop tickling me... It's so itchy... hahaha..."
Inside Tianque Pass, a massive literacy campaign officially began.
The die-hards over there were receiving friendly one-on-one interactions from the demon soldiers.
Meanwhile, the nine-year compulsory education system is being further popularized.
"Repeat after me! Oppose superstition, believe in science!"
"Oppose superstition, believe in science!"
"Science is the ladder of human progress. Without science, you won't be able to find evidence if your wife cheats on you, and you won't even be able to tell if your child is your own!"
"What is science? Knowledge is a part of science! Without knowledge, you are like mindless zombies!"
The demon soldiers constantly brainwashed these charlatans, leading them into the allure of science.
Anyone unwilling to accept science should be educated in science until they sincerely repent and embrace materialism.
At this moment, the temple that the believers had just built the night before was overthrown again, and the statues were smashed and thrown into the latrine by the demon soldiers.
Jiang Haitian sat leisurely on the city tower, playing with the magic bead as he watched the sunrise.
"Commander Jiang, what should we do next? Should we take advantage of the situation and invade the Holy Dynasty's territory?"
The demon general named Cao Chun was filled with excitement.
Since the successful capture of the seemingly impregnable Tianque Pass last night, he has developed a deep and abiding admiration for Jiang Haitian.
"Next step, hehe..."
As the words were about to come out, Jiang Haitian stood up and looked at the outline of the Holy Dynasty's border city in the distance.
"Prepare to withdraw troops."
"yes?"
Cao Chun was taken aback, thinking he had misheard.
What are you standing there for?
"but……"
Seeing his utter confusion, Jiang Haitian patiently explained, "Twenty thousand men stormed into the Holy Dynasty. To be honest..."
This wasn't enough for Empress Luo Pianhong to cut down alone, not to mention that the most elite Jinghong Army of the Heavenly Saint Palace hadn't even been deployed yet.
You think we can hold off their offensive with just a few of us? Fine, let's call it a day. If I'm not mistaken, reinforcements are on their way.
"This subordinate understands."
Cao Chun accepted the order and immediately went back to prepare.
...
The following morning, when the 400,000 followers of the God-Worshipping Cult, led by Li Hanyun of the Right Guard, arrived at Tianque Pass, they witnessed the following scene:
"Believe in science and oppose superstition."
"The power of science is boundless."
"Science is the driving force and foundation of development, and the ladder of human progress."
"Any external obstacle that hinders the progress of science is a monstrous flood!"
More than 200,000 believers sat together in the square, chanting incantations, seemingly completely possessed.
Demon flags, armor, and weapons were scattered all around, suggesting they had left in a great hurry.
Li Hanyun didn't care about this at all, and immediately said to his subordinates: "Immediately send someone to inform the sect leader that Tianque Pass has been taken without bloodshed, and ask him to put his mind at ease!"
He naturally wanted to publicize such achievements extensively to highlight his reputation as a brilliant strategist.
...
That night, inside the Holy River Pass, while the demon soldiers who had just returned from the Heavenly Palace Pass were still resting, they received Jiang Haitian's order.
"No more rest, let's set off immediately!"
Everyone was completely dumbfounded. What did this mean?
Cao Chun said, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Commander Jiang has already made arrangements. We just need to follow them."
"Could you tell us where to go?"
"Tianque Pass!"
"What?"
In an instant, the demon soldiers were all dumbfounded.
They've only been back for less than a day, and they're already going to fight back?
I have no idea what Jiang Shuai is thinking.
But don't ask about things that are going on up there; this isn't something you can research with a monthly salary of 3,000.
...
The following day, at Tiansheng Palace.
"Your Majesty, I have received a report from my disciple Li Hanyun that my disciples of the Worshiping Gods Sect have received the favor of the Supreme Ancestor."
A divine miracle descended, ensuring no one was injured or killed. Half a million demon soldiers were annihilated, over two hundred thousand captured civilians were rescued, and Tianque Pass was recaptured in one fell swoop.
Li Xuanxiu stood in the main hall, recounting with great enthusiasm the recapture of Tianque Pass.
Of course, these are all his imagined achievements and have no reference value whatsoever.
It's meant to make me look like I'm awesome, incredibly awesome.
Half of the court officials once again erupted in nauseatingly obsequious flattery.
The other half kept quiet, afraid of being proven wrong again.
Until Luo Pianhong casually said, "This time, there shouldn't be any more problems, right?"
Li Xuanxiu immediately declared, "I guarantee with my integrity that Tianque Pass will be impregnable this time. With my disciples from the Worshiping Gods Sect guarding it, the Dao Domain will be safe for a thousand years."
Luo Pianhong sneered inwardly, but said aloud, "Then I'll accept Master Li's kind words. I hope so."
Li Xuanxiu immediately replied, "It was all under the instructions of the Shangqing Ancestor; I dare not take credit for it."
He then cautiously inquired, "Your Majesty, I have successfully recovered lost territory for my Holy Dynasty. I wonder about Your Majesty's promise the other day to make my Worshiping Gods Sect the state religion of the Holy Dynasty..."
Luo Pianhong was instantly shocked by this shameless guy.
Reclaiming lost territory?
You are the one who lost territory, yet you don't mention it at all.
Now that you've redeemed yourself with good deeds, why are you being given such grand praise?
For a moment, she almost laughed out of anger, secretly hoping for a scene where he would be slapped in the face to ease the awkward atmosphere.
