Chapter 217. He Yuan looked at Dan Feng...
Looking at Danfeng's face, He Yuan suddenly felt that he was terrifyingly stubborn.
“Ah Yuan, if it were you who got into trouble... I can’t guarantee I wouldn’t have gone even further.”
Friends and lovers are both people he cherishes, but as long as feelings exist, they can never be shared equally.
Danfeng thought to herself, thankfully Heyuan had been alright all along, so it didn't have to come to that.
"You care about me, so why don't you care about my thoughts?"
He Yuan retorted, "If you like me and love me, you should consider my feelings!"
"I'm a selfish person. I don't want you to suffer any setbacks because of me, and I don't like you having to put in effort for others!"
The young man emphasized his words, as if he were expressing his thoughts with great determination.
Danfeng gazed at him: "You've thought about making Yingxing immortal."
The man's tone was firm, his gaze calm and serene, "For you, that's all in the past, don't dwell on it anymore."
"I need to know the answer!"
He Yuan practically roared, "Why? Why is it that when you do something wrong, I'm the one who suffers the pain and grief!"
He could almost instantly recall how he felt back then.
At that time, he and Yingxing had been married for only ten years and were deeply in love, but overnight, everything changed.
Her husband was imprisoned, and her best friend, as the main culprit, was also locked up in a solitary confinement awaiting trial, leaving only him and Jingyuan outside, worrying and running around.
Danfeng did have some backup plans, but given the circumstances at the time, they were practically a drop in the ocean.
He Yuan had almost forgotten about it.
Scars left by serious injuries cannot be completely removed, but they can be ignored, faded, and eventually forgotten over time.
He should have done so, and he's almost ready to "forget" it.
But that won't work.
The scars are still there. Whenever something similar happens, the place where the serious injury was left will still hurt. In fact, because of the past neglect, the backlash can be a thousand times or even a hundred times more painful.
He has to tear it open himself and find the answer on his own.
Now, the crane kite has been found.
He knew that Danfeng and Yingxing, who had caused the Yinyue Rebellion, also felt remorse and pain.
He knew that the root of the conflict was the struggle between hunting and abundance, and that everyone was a pawn of the Star God.
He knew that even without the chaos of drinking the moon, there would be other turmoil.
But he also wondered, why them of all people?
Does the Star God, like ordinary people, enjoy watching geniuses fall and heroes bear infamy?
Ahab said that the script of Onphalus and Pinocchio had already been written, existing in the memory of Fuli, in the path of the last king, and finally realized in the hands of balance.
Balance, balance will be strictly executed at every step, and no one is allowed to disrupt it, nor is the slightest deviation allowed in the scales in our hands.
These are Ahab's original words, spoken through the voice of the Star God, revealing the rules of this world.
The chaos of drinking the moon was probably a turning point in restoring order.
Even with He Yuan's heroic rescue that preserved most of the remaining forces, it is undeniable that in the decades that followed, the Luofu Immortal Ship ceased its previous proactive attacks and instead focused on recuperation.
The once-defeated Fengrao allied forces regrouped and launched a counterattack, triggering another great war among the Fengrao people.
"...I'm so sorry," Danfeng slowly released her hand, "Ah Yuan, it's precisely because I couldn't give you a definite answer that I..."
That's why they keep talking about the bad results.
I'm afraid I'll let you down again.
This will make He Yuan even more uncomfortable.
He Yuan looked at him and suddenly burst into tears. "You won't even coax or lie to me once?"
Danfeng sighed softly, "How could I bear to lie to you?"
"You won't even say a kind word to me, I don't like you anymore!"
After pressing Danfeng with questions, Heyuan finally understood.
Since Danfeng can't change things, and the rules can't be changed, then let him change them!
He Yuan had no intention of becoming the ruler of any world, nor was he interested in adding any burden to himself. His original intention was simple—to hope that everyone around him would be safe and sound, and even if they died, they should die peacefully in their old age.
So he will continue to fill out questionnaires to increase his strength in the game, so that he can destroy the world and make everyone fear him.
Since order has already been lost, what does it matter if he has so much power, as long as he doesn't affect the balance of power?
Even if they come to arrest him or punish him, we can just throw Aha out to hold him off for a while.
Equilibrium, what is equilibrium?
If we take hunting and abundance as an example, then it is the Immortal Ship Alliance and the Abundant People.
With the sponsorship of He Yuan, the Immortal Boat Alliance has grown very strong in recent years, even competing with the company for market share, but the people of Fengrao are not having an easy time.
In the past, we could still seize points, but now that trade routes are extensive and guards are everywhere, what we seize is actually a loss compared to what we lose.
More importantly, there has been no break in the line of marshals and generals of the Immortal Ship, but since Hu Lei was arrested, Bu Liren has not produced another war leader for more than a hundred years!
This is probably not in equilibrium?
It is impossible for He Yuan to support the prosperous people.
After thinking it over, he suddenly remembered "Danlun Temple" that he had seen on the StarNet before.
After Hulei was imprisoned, the Buli people were leaderless and gradually split into various groups. Some remained the same as before, some went into business, and others, like Danlun Temple, tended to adopt human-like habits.
Fighting can be a business fight or a charity fight.
He Yuan quickly sketched out a plan, remembering the dusty skull in her bag.
He could send the defiant Buli people to labor camps, and send the reformed Buli people to Danlun Temple to spread "Buddhism".
Does the equilibrium theory suggest that this is not balanced?
Crane Kite thinks it's too balanced. If it thinks balance is no good, then it's because it's not good enough; it doesn't know how to look at things from a different perspective.
He bid farewell to Danfeng with great efficiency, turned back to the normal timeline, and headed to the Luofu Immortal Ship overnight to discuss a plan with Jingyuan.
“…A very creative plan,” Jing Yuan paused, “Xiao Yuan, are you sure you’re safe?”
Whether it succeeds or not is secondary; the plan will only be implemented on a small scale first, and as long as He Yuan can ensure his own safety, that's enough.
He Yuan didn't mind being frank with him: "When Hu Lei was killed back then, besides Chi Yue, there was something called the Skull that could command most of the Bu Li people."
"With my strength, self-preservation is not a problem."
Jing Yuan was speechless: "...Skull?!"
"Xiao Yuan, why do you still keep this?"
No normal person would keep this!
He Yuan looked completely innocent: "These are my spoils of war, why can't I keep them?"
Jing Yuan: "......"
What could he say? He didn't care that He Yuan secretly kept Chi Yue, let alone a skull.
"What do you need me to do?"
He Yuan shook her head. "I just came to discuss this with you. Just wait for my results."
The young man suddenly curled his lips, stepped forward and knelt on Jing Yuan's desk, his face pressed against the armor of the Shence General.
"General Jingyuan, wait for my good news."
"Prepare your dowry, and when I achieve success, I will come to marry you."
Jing Yuan immediately pulled him onto his lap. "Alright, then I'll wait for the great hero to return in triumph and rid the Immortal Ship of its greatest threat."
