For Lu Li, immortality was an immense torment.
If he had a choice, he would rather have actually died in the battle at the Great Wall.
But even heavenly lightning couldn't kill him; instead, four hundred years passed!
Everyone around him died, and he was the only one who survived, clinging to life.
This loneliness almost drove Lu Li crazy!
He found a new dawn after he learned that Leifu was Zhang Jiao and what Leifu's ambitions were.
They have also found their value in life by protecting the land of China and ensuring that the people live peaceful lives, free from oppression and exploitation!
His goal was clear: no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, he had to persevere.
He would not hesitate to defy the will of Heaven once again.
This may be a road of no return, but Lu Li is determined to go without hesitation!
"Lu Li, let's cooperate! Together we'll overthrow this corrupt dynasty and build a new order from the ruins!"
"Let's change history and create our immortal dynasty!!!" Wang Mang said excitedly to Lu Li.
Lu Li suddenly froze, looked up at Wang Mang, and gently shook his head.
"You're rejecting me?" Wang Mang frowned.
Lu Li suddenly realized that Wang Mang's ideas were different from his own.
He still wanted to become emperor first and establish a dynasty.
What Laifu and Luli wanted was a world where everyone was equal and there were no classes.
"Dynasty? Heh, what's the point if it's just about overthrowing the Han Dynasty and establishing a new one?"
Lu Li slowly shook his head: "What I want to do is to bring peace to the world and let everyone live a happy and joyful life!"
"That's my dream too!"
Lu Li paused for a moment, then smiled. "No, we're different. You just want to establish your own regime!"
"You're wrong, your dream is destined to fail!"
"This is the late Eastern Han Dynasty! It's the era of a feudal dynasty! The ideals you're talking about are simply impossible to achieve!"
“Even if you are a hundred years younger than me, have your ideals been achieved in China at that time?” Wang Mang asked almost frantically.
Lu Li fell silent. He didn't know how to answer Wang Mang, because even in later generations, this idea had not been realized.
But does that mean we shouldn't do it?
"If our ancestors had thought like you back then, would there still be a modern China?"
"Back then, they didn't know if they could win the war, or if they would see the sun rise tomorrow, but they still did it! Without hesitation!"
"In the end, someone has to step forward, someone has to do it, right?" Lu Li said solemnly, taking a deep breath.
"This is not the original sin of thought, but rather that our position determines our viewpoint!"
"You think you're doing this for the good of all humanity? Little do you know, you're only thinking of yourself!"
Wang Mang's expression froze, and after a long silence, he suddenly let out a cold snort.
"Your fallacy is interesting, but it's useless! You and I are different. I have lofty ambitions and want to change everything in the world!"
Lu Li stared at him indifferently, her tone icy: "But I have faith, the faith I hold fast to!"
"Faith? Hahaha, Lu Li, you were born in a prosperous era, but do you know what I've been through?"
Wang Mang could not understand Lu Li, let alone his so-called faith.
In the dark era of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, there was no faith to speak of, and people would do anything to survive.
In this chaotic world, no one is kind.
Even if you've traveled through time, you're still blessed with extraordinary advantages!
"You possess an immortal body, you can become a disciple of Guiguzi, you can help Ying Zheng sweep across the six kingdoms, and become the most trusted person in the heart of the greatest emperor of all time!"
"And what about me?"
"I climbed to the top step by step. I worked for the benefit of the people. I suppressed powerful families, implemented reforms, emphasized agriculture, and promoted commerce!"
"But what did we get in return?"
"With the saying 'the way of Heaven cannot be defied,' all my efforts have been in vain!"
Wang Mang's furious roar seemed to indicate that he had fallen into a state of madness.
"That's what I painstakingly created with all my heart and soul!"
"But what was the outcome?"
"A hypocritical Heaven, a cunning Liu Xiu, and ignorant fools! They destroyed everything I had with their own hands!"
Wang Mang's eyes were bloodshot, and his face was full of murderous intent.
"They took away everything I had worked so hard to create, and now they want to destroy me!"
"Don't even think about it!!!"
He roared, and the entire secret chamber trembled. Lu Li felt the internal force bursting from his body and immediately became serious.
He dared not be careless, his whole body tense, ready to deal with Wang Mang's sudden attack at any time!
"I will show the world what a true powerhouse is!!!"
"I don't believe in fate! This world will ultimately belong to me!!!"
With a deafening roar, the stone slab beneath Wang Mang's feet suddenly shattered, unleashing an extremely terrifying aura and a suffocating power emanating from him.
In an instant, the entire sealed room seemed to freeze, and the air stopped flowing.
"This..." Lu Li was utterly shocked. He was completely powerless to resist and stood frozen in place.
Wang Mang's aura is too strong!
The mere scent emanating from him gave him a deadly sense of crisis!
"This Wang Mang is even stronger than Mo Yun was back then!"
Lu Li felt a chill run down his spine, his expression shifting between light and dark.
"Lu Li, since we walk different paths, then you should die!" Wang Mang laughed maniacally.
