Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 990 Community of Shared Destiny

"Teacher Zhou, why did you come here to eat?"

Listening to the discussions around her, Ning Rongrong learned that Zhou Qing usually ate in the public canteen. People here saw him many times, and although they were enthusiastic, they were not as fanatical as in other places. They would not block the aisle whenever he appeared.

Logically speaking, the more important a person is, the less likely they are to see the less important people below them, but Zhou Qing seems to be different.

Tang San, Wang Sheng, Romantina, and others seem to be the same.

This is almost impossible in other major powers—strong people always need to maintain an air of mystery. For example, her father, her bone grandfather, and her sword grandfather rarely appear among ordinary people.

Ning Rongrong naturally knew a lot about the Red Society's philosophy, but even if it was for everyone to live a good life, there was no need to constantly mingle among ordinary people, right?
Wouldn't that be too degrading?

After learning about Ning Rongrong's thoughts, Zhou Qing wasn't angry. He just smiled and said, "The Dao is in excrement and urine!"

“Cultivation and developing power are essentially the same thing; both involve growth within the process of building a system. Considering that these principles are still somewhat distant for you, I won't go into detail, but will simply explain them in a more basic way.”

Water flows downhill because of gravity.

Clouds float in the sky because of air currents.

These are all objectively existing rules, as well as the laws governing the operation, transformation, and circulation of energy in the universe, which is why Soul Masters have such a wide variety of Soul Skills.

Ultimately, however, the fundamental principles and laws, and the patterns they reveal, are the most basic of all.

Similarly, the difference in wisdom between people is actually unrelated to the strength of their martial spirit cultivation talent. In this respect, as long as there are no congenital physical or spiritual abnormalities, the difference is roughly the same. Foolishness or wisdom actually depends on the experiences they have in their lives.

Perhaps their talent for cultivation is far inferior to yours, but in terms of wisdom, as long as they are given the opportunity to be educated, they will naturally gain knowledge and experience as they grow, and gradually hone their brilliant wisdom.

Compared to Soul Masters who immediately resort to action when faced with a problem, ordinary people, through the wisdom honed by hardship, are more likely to see through the essence of things.

Therefore, from the perspective of a Soul Master, the Red Society's people-oriented philosophy means that we hope to use the collective wisdom of all living beings to create a brand new future.

This also includes Soul Masters.

Ning Rongrong seemed thoughtful, then asked with a hint of doubt, "Won't it cause a lot of problems if ordinary people know too much? My father said, 'When people are well-fed and clothed, they think of lustful desires.'"

"This is just human nature, but I don't agree with the idea of ​​cutting off people's opportunity to read and write because we worry that they might become sexually impatient after they've had enough to eat and wear."

Zhou Qing shook his head. "I know that some people, after receiving education, know too much but are powerless to change it. Instead, they feel pain and may even blame those who let them know so much, and miss their ignorant and naive past."

But I'm sure that someone will be willing to change the status quo.

Try it! Strive for it!
These are the people our Red Cross wants. As for the rest, they may live peacefully or resent us, but ultimately, we have given them the opportunity and the right to know the truth. How they choose in the future is up to them. As long as they don't commit crimes, let them be.

Qingzhu nodded: "The Red Society's ideals are great. May I participate?"

She herself may be able to face her fate, but the rest of her family, and even her descendants, may face the same predicament.

If things don't change, then the same fate as her will keep repeating itself!
Perhaps some people are as lucky as her and live their own lives, but Qingzhu Zhu is certain that most people can only accept their predetermined fate and work together with the Dai family descendants who have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

In the past, Qingzhu Zhu only cared about herself and didn't consider so many things, but after studying at Notting College, she learned more and her thoughts on fate became more profound.

"I have things I must face. I originally thought it was just a personal matter, but as I've grown older, I've witnessed all sorts of relationships between people, mixed with interests and emotions... I couldn't quite put my finger on it before, but now I have some thoughts on it—"

Human destiny is not a linear progression; everything is interconnected. I've realized that only by truly changing my family can I truly change the destiny that has ordained me.

Seeing that Qingzhu had such awareness, Zhou Qing was not too surprised. After all, quiet children are often secretly passionate and have many thoughts in their hearts.

"It's excellent to have considered this point. The fates of everyone in the world are closely intertwined—Soul Masters, ordinary people, and perhaps even Soul Beasts in the future. In short, it's—"

Zhou Qing paused for a moment before giving his answer, "A community of shared future!"

Building a community with a shared future is also one of the future development goals of the Red Cross Society.

Dai Mubai, however, scoffed, thinking Zhou Qing's idea was delusional. How could the fate of nobles be intertwined with that of commoners? It was nothing more than a tactic by the Red Society to win people over...

···
Dinner is over.

The group parted ways.

When Dai Mubai returned to the entrance of the accommodation arranged by Zhou Qing, he met Yu Xiaogang, who was already waiting outside. Since Yu Xiaogang was Flander's friend and had indeed shown some talent at Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai maintained a superficial respect for him.

"Master Yu, is there something you need from me?"

"Ah."

Yu Xiaogang spoke succinctly, as if he were in his own home, "Let's go inside and talk."

This emotional intelligence—

No wonder you're doing so poorly!
While inwardly complaining, Dai Mubai outwardly remained courteous, took out his key, opened the door, and invited him to sit down in the living room.

The space is not large, only about 50 square meters, but it has a bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom and other facilities. It is small but complete.

This kind of room is naturally not comparable to the imperial palace of the Star Luo Empire, but Dai Mubai didn't mind too much. After all, he hadn't spent those years at Shrek Academy for nothing.

Moreover, the layout here is much better than Notting College, where you have to share a dorm room with multiple people.

After Yu Xiaogang sat down, he didn't waste any time and went straight to the point: "Do you want to know the specifics of what happened during the competition?"

"You know?"

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai poured tea for Yu Xiaogang and sat opposite him, intending to test him.

"Evil-Eyed Saint King".

Yu Xiaogang didn't keep them in suspense, "The Star Luo Empire also has related legends, you should know about them, right?"

Dai Mubai felt somewhat embarrassed.

He had never liked reading since childhood and had no recollection of such legends, but he couldn't lose face at this moment, so he said, "They do exist, but I'm not sure, and it's just a rumor."

[If it were a famous legend, even if I didn't like reading when I was a child, I should have heard of it. So this so-called Evil-Eyed Saint King must not be known to the general public... I say this to cover up my ignorance of this rumor...]
