You're Thinking Too Much, Chu Xinghe. You're Not Worth That Much!

Chu Xinghe rarely left Chu Xinghe Vast Heaven Holy Land in the past, not because he didn't want to go out, but because it was troublesome.

After all, given Chu Xinghe's identity, if he were recognized, it would cause a huge sensation.

Therefore, Chu Xinghe would not easily leave the Vast Heaven Holy Land...

But now, with the emergence of the Chu Xinghe Impersonation Competition, you can encounter all sorts of Chu Xinghe imitators no matter where you are in the Four Continents.

What the hell? How can there be so many people in this world who look like Chu Xinghe?

Friend, do you even know what makeup magic is?

It is said that some makeup masters can make themselves look even more like Chu Xinghe than Chu Xinghe, even when they don't look like him at all!

As more and more people imitated Chu Xinghe, he no longer needed to worry about his identity being exposed. After all, unless they were truly close to Chu Xinghe, they would never believe that the person in front of them was the real Chu Xinghe.

Compared to Chu Xinghe himself, Ma Liang was in a more troublesome situation...

In this world, you might not recognize Chu Xinghe, but you'd hardly fail to recognize Ma Liang...

However, with the increasing number of imitators of Chu Xinghe, although there are very few imitators of Ma Liang due to their own reasons, imitators of Ma Liang can still be seen in many places.

Along their journey, wherever Chu Xinghe and Ma Liang went, countless people exclaimed, "Holy crap! Look, this Ma Liang imitator is something else!"

"What? An imitator of Ma Liang? I thought it was a donkey!"

"His physical attributes are just too good... This is the most convincing donkey impersonator of Ma Liang I've ever seen!"

"This Ma Liang imitator is impressive, but Chu Xinghe next to him is a bit lacking. Putting aside his appearance, look at his demeanor—he has a rustic air about him; he's clearly a beginner!"

"That's right, if Chu Xinghe were to participate in Chu Xinghe Impersonation Competition, he probably wouldn't even make it past the preliminary rounds!"

Chu Xinghe: "..."

Chu Xinghe was utterly speechless at the person who claimed he couldn't even pass the preliminary rounds of the Chu Xinghe Impersonation Competition at the drop of a hat!

Um... do you guys think it's possible that I am the real person?

Isn't it a bit too absurd that I, the real Chu Xinghe Impersonation Competition?

What? You think I, Chu Xinghe, have a rustic air about me? I call this being simple and unpretentious, don't you understand?

Along his journey, whenever Ma Liang arrived in a large city, he would always attract a large crowd. Of course, quite a few people even went so far as to ask Ma Liang if he would accept employment...

Nowadays, with the emergence of various impersonation shows, many impersonators also take on various commercial or personal performances, which can be considered a form of entertainment.

Of course, it is precisely because of the existence of these impersonation shows that Chu Xinghe and Ma Liang are spared countless troubles. Even though they are often surrounded by onlookers because of Ma Liang's affairs, no one will actually mistake them for Ma Liang or Chu Xinghe.

They just thought it was an imitator who looked exactly like Ma Liang with an imitator who looked exactly like Chu Xinghe!

Tuyang Town is a border town of the Great Liang Kingdom, which is located in the southern part of the Blazing Sun Continent and is considered a large country among the many countries on the entire Blazing Sun Continent.

The Blazing Sun Continent has been a place where sects and nations have coexisted since ancient times.

Many people believe that sectarian groups are above the state, but that's not the case!

To be precise, sectarianism should be an entity that transcends the state!

For example, under the jurisdiction of Martial Emperor City, there are countless countries of all sizes that are dependent on it, and they will provide Martial Emperor City with various resources and tributes every year.

However, they can also obtain all sorts of benefits and resources from the Martial Emperor City!

The nations are allied with Martial Emperor City, providing it with the resources needed for cultivation. In return, Martial Emperor City will periodically recruit disciples from these nations, who can eventually return to Martial Emperor City completing their studies.

Not only disciples, but also many relatively low-level cultivation techniques will be taught to these countries by Martial Emperor City, along with various elixirs, spiritual treasures... all of these are available.

Therefore, Martial Emperor City is not some kind of vampire that sucks the blood of various countries to fatten itself up.

Conversely, although Martial Emperor City is high and Martial Emperor City, it still gives back to the countries that worship it some scarce resources that they cannot obtain on their own.

Therefore, in the Blazing Sun Continent, nations and sects coexist.

However, in the Blazing Sun Continent, sects typically do not participate in the governance or other management of these countries.

All countries govern themselves, and their rise and fall are determined by themselves.

The reason why this situation occurred is actually somewhat related to Ma Liang.

Ma Liang's battle in the Great Moon Kingdom was a sensation throughout the entire Blazing Sun Continent. It was that battle that made the entire Blazing Sun Continent realize what would happen to a country that was originally self-governing when the power of sects infiltrated and even controlled it.

Back then, Tian Qingquan, relying on his position as an elder of the Cloud Firmament Sect, practically controlled the entire Great Moon Kingdom, and the entire royal family of the Great Moon Kingdom, from top to bottom, was almost entirely controlled by Tian Qingquan's descendants.

Even the royal family has become like this; you can imagine what kind of lives the ordinary people live.

Therefore, after the war with the Great Moon Kingdom, the leaders of various forces, after joint research, decided that they would no longer allow sectarian forces to easily interfere in or indirectly interfere in the internal affairs of any country.

Therefore, in the current Blazing Sun Continent, the relationship between sects and nations is more one of cooperation.

Sects obtain resources from the state and give back to the state through their own abilities, but they do not interfere in the governance of the state.

Whether it's a problem within the nation itself or a change of dynasty, that's a decision the nation must make, and sectarian factions should never easily interfere.

Tuyang's Great Liang Kingdom, can be considered a large country, and the area where the Great Liang Kingdom is located actually belongs to the Vast Heaven Holy Land.

Whether other major powers will completely cease interfering in the internal affairs of various countries is unknown, but if the Vast Heaven Holy Land says he will not interfere, then he absolutely will not interfere.

Take, for example, the Great Liang Kingdom where Tuyang is now. The Great Liang Kingdom was once a relatively prosperous country, but in the past two years, with continuous wars, the Great Liang Kingdom has gradually declined and is showing signs of impending demise.

The Vast Heaven Holy Land would not interfere in such matters.

Because dynastic changes are sometimes inevitable, the intervention of the Vast Heaven Holy Land might restore the Great Liang Kingdom to prosperity, but would this prosperity be true prosperity?

Therefore, the rising and setting of the sun and moon, the alternation of day and night, the passing of spring and autumn, and the rise and fall of dynasties are all natural laws. The decline of a dynasty must have its own reasons, and excessive intervention may not lead to good results.

When a dynasty is rotten to the extreme, it should be replaced by a new dynasty!

Although dynastic changes can trigger various wars and cause countless deaths, sometimes a serious illness requires drastic measures, and war and peace always alternate.

Is forcibly prolonging the life of a dynasty truly for the good of the people?

As long as ordinary people can afford to eat and survive, wars generally do not occur. Only when people are truly destitute will they rise up in rebellion.

Forcibly suppressing all of this may seem to have put an end to the war, but prolonged suffering among the people can sometimes be more terrible than war itself!

Therefore, the Vast Heaven Holy Land chose to follow the natural order. When dynasties changed hands, the Vast Heaven Holy Land never interfered or forcibly intervened in the rise and fall of dynasties. Instead, it left the fate of the dynasties to be decided by the people of those dynasties!

The Great Liang Kingdom is currently facing internal and external troubles. Since entering Tuyang, Chu Xinghe has heard that Great Liang is at war with the neighboring Great Chang Kingdom. Great Chang Kingdom has won one battle after another, and almost half of the Great Liang Kingdom's territory has been taken over by the Great Chang Kingdom.

Not only is there a war with the Great Chang Kingdom, but the Great Liang Kingdom is also plagued by internal strife. The Great Liang Kingdom is now riddled with problems and is on the verge of destruction.

Despite witnessing countless deaths caused by war along the way, Ma Liang remained remarkably calm.

Because Ma Liang was born into a noble family in the Great Moon Kingdom, although he had never experienced war, Ma Liang said to his Senior Brother Xinghe Ma Liang, " You are unaware of this."

War is like a powerful medicine for treating a serious illness; it kills countless people, but it also brings new life to countless others.

In contrast, the Great Moon Kingdom back then did not experience much war, but its people were not even considered human beings under the oppression of the Great Moon Kingdom family.

According to Ma Liang, in the Great Moon Kingdom back then, let alone the emperor, it was common for tens of thousands of people to be buried alive with the dead when a king or nobleman died!

The people may despair because of the war, but what they despair of even more is having no hope at all. The Great Moon Kingdom back then was such a place with absolutely no hope.

The royal family is controlled by Tian Qingquan's descendants. In the eyes of the royal family, the common people are just fish to be slaughtered. The common people don't even have a chance to resist, because anyone who dares to stand up and resist will be suppressed by the royal family. And once the royal family can no longer suppress them, then someone like Tian Qingquan will descend and completely suppress them!

Ma Liang declared that the Great Moon Kingdom of that time was the real hell!

Ma Liang didn't know why the Great Liang Kingdom had come to this point, but Ma Liang did know that war might destroy countless homes, but one day the shadow of war would dissipate, and the people would see the light of day again, instead of living forever in the shadow of Tian Qingquan, like the Great Moon Kingdom.

Chu Xinghe understood what Ma Liang was saying. A prosperous era is like daytime, while war is like night. The alternation of day and night is in accordance with the natural order!

No matter how long the night, the light of dawn will always pierce the darkness and bring hope to the people.

For a kingdom like the Great Moon Kingdom, it was an endless night. From the moment they were born, the people of the Great Moon Kingdom were destined to be oppressed by the royal family. This was truly terrifying.

Chu Xinghe Holy Mother very well that in this world, did you think only the Evil Shadow Continent was a place where the strong preyed on the weak?

In fact, quite the opposite is true. Everywhere in this world is a place where the strong prey on the weak; it's just that the Evil Shadow Continent has made everything public.

In other places, cultivators live in a world where the strong prey on the weak, the strong devour the weak to become stronger, and powerful nations exploit weaker nations—this is the law!

The Vast Heaven Holy Land could end the current war in the Great Liang Kingdom with a single word, but if the Vast Heaven Holy Land really did that, wouldn't that just be another form of the survival of the fittest?

Meanwhile, Chu Xinghe and Ma Liang had just entered Tuyang Town when they were stopped by someone.

"Um... are you supposed to be imitators of Ma Liang and Chu Xinghe? Would you accept a job? I can offer you a high price of three hundred spirit stones!"

The one who spoke was a little girl whose entire body was wrapped up tightly except for her two big eyes, which were blinking as she looked at Chu Xinghe and Ma Liang!

"I'm sorry, young lady, I don't accept hires! But three hundred spirit stones is quite a high price!" Chu Xinghe smiled slightly and refused the young girl. After all, he had encountered many people who wanted to hire them to perform along the way!

"You're overthinking it. I wasn't asking for your opinion, nor am I hiring you, Chu Xinghe. I'm a fan of Ma Liang, and I want to hire Ma Liang. Your price isn't that high... 295 out of 300 spirit stones is for hiring this Ma Liang Chu Xinghe. You don't seem like Chu Xinghe at all. I only added 5 spirit stones because you were together, hoping to make up the numbers and hire you too. If it were just you, I'd give you a maximum of 2 spirit stones!"

Ma Liang: "Pfft..."

Chu Xinghe: "..."
