Why Would You Need a Bicycle?!

As Wang Zhiyuan fled at breakneck speed, enveloped in a silvery light, two streaks of eerie light shot out from Li Yao's sleeves, piercing directly through Wang Zhiyuan's knees. The momentum of his run caused Wang Zhiyuan to fall to the ground, even sliding quite a distance...

He quickly rolled over, his eyes fixed on Li Yao and the others with a fierce and fanatical gaze, and shouted, "For greater glory!"

He immediately prepared to bite the poison and commit suicide!

Before he could crush the poison sac, Old He had already rushed to his side, his right hand flashing out to dislocate the man's jaw. Then, he unleashed a burst of energy from his fingertips, sealing off all energy fluctuations from the man's body. After doing all this, Old He shattered Wang Zhiyuan's shoulder joint.

Now,

Although Wang Zhiyuan still had limbs, he was no different from a human pig.

Li Yao was terrified! That was ruthless! Old He apologized, "I'm sorry, but according to the Wallfacers Regulations: from now on, everything you own will no longer belong to you."

He took out his phone, turned to Li Yao who had caught up with him, and said, "Boss Li, could you keep an eye on this young man for me? I'm going to call the Big Sister Head."

This matter is of great importance.

He couldn't decide what to do.

Li Yao led Chen Xi and the others to Wang Zhiyuan's side. The once handsome and dashing young man was now staring at them with his mouth agape.

The situation is roughly like this: (▼Д▼)!

It's kind of funny.

But no one sympathized with him.

This guy is clearly a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), and quite seriously so.

He killed his own Laozi without hesitation...

Although his Laozi slapped him before, it was clearly a show for Old He; it looked like a hard slap, but he didn't actually use any force. And his Laozi died because of that one slap.

It seems this guy...

It's because I haven't been beaten enough in my daily life.

Therefore,

You can't spoil a brat. If you don't teach him how to be a good person when he's young, someone else will teach him when he grows up.

If even outsiders can't teach him, then the final retribution will fall on the parents.

—A grown-up brat will use his mischievousness to teach his parents how to behave.

only,

By then, everything will be over.

Wang Zhiyuan, with his mouth agape, wriggled his body as if trying to express something. "Nothing can be reversed, and you can do whatever you want."

Li Yao: "..."

He looked at the black cat. "What did he say?"

Black Cat: "He said he wouldn't say anything, and we wouldn't get anything."

Li Yao: "???"

You actually understood that?

The black cat wiggled its tail and jumped onto Chen Xi's shoulder.

Wow! This girl's skin is so soft and smells amazing! So wonderful!

Li Yao was displeased. "I'm asking you a question! How did you even understand me!"

The black cat proudly declared, "My Chinese is excellent!"

"Damn it, come at me if you dare!" Li Yao was about to smash this dead cat to death with a stick when Old He walked over from the side. "Alright, alright, the Big Sister Head told us to take her back. In a few days, the organization will send colleagues from the Supervisory Department, along with colleagues from Su Province and Lu Province, to conduct a joint investigation. For now, let's have our colleagues from Lu Province seal off the Wang family's residence. Let's go back."

I've been waiting for him to say that!

The air in the wilderness is now filled with the smell of burnt meat, and the thought that it smells like people being burned alive...

Li Yao felt very uncomfortable.

He said to the Old He, "Couldn't you just burn it more thoroughly? Just turn it into ashes and let it nourish the earth!"

Old He: "..."

He thought about it carefully for a while and said, "No, no, I controlled the intensity. I mainly burned their brains. The rest will be left for the Testing Department colleagues to dissect and analyze to see if they can find anything."

Li Yao pursed his lips. Are all the Wallfacers this ruthless?

Old He smiled and said, "It's going to be tough on the relevant departments. Moving so many charred and tender corpses must be quite uncomfortable."

"Heh, talking to you makes me a little hungry!" Li Yao said with a blank face, "You'd better shut up!"

Old He: "..."

They carried Wang Zhiyuan, who was completely incapacitated, and the rescued third and fourth sons of the Chen Family, and rushed back to the provincial capital.

By the time we got back to the provincial capital, it was already dawn...

At the entrance of the Midnight Bar, Feng Li and a group of people were already waiting there.

There were officials from relevant departments dressed in black suits but without any special abilities, as well as Wallfacers wearing black trench coats with cold expressions.

Upon seeing Old He and Li Yao get out of the car, they saluted and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"

Lao He smiled honestly, "It should be."

Li Yao rolled his eyes...

What a pretentious act!

Those cold-faced Wallfacers took Wang Zhiyuan away, turning a blind eye to what had happened to Wang Zhiyuan... It seems the Wallfacers often do this.

Feng Li then had Wei Dadong and Li Yao take some statements, and that was the end of it.

After the relevant department staff left, Li Yao stretched and said, "Is there nothing more for us to do?"

Feng Li sighed, "I never thought that picking up someone would lead to such a mess, causing so much trouble... Brother, do you think... there's something wrong with you?"

You're the one with the problem! Your whole family has problems! What right do you, a mere critic, have to point fingers at your lousy father?! Li Yao retorted stiffly, "You should tell your superiors to reflect on why they haven't done anything about all the trouble that's happening right under their noses!"

Am I the one causing trouble?!

"I'm the victim here!" Feng Li said dismissively, "Heh, do you know how difficult our work is? Chinese aristocratic families often only recognize their clan, not those in power. If you encounter a reasonable family, it's fine, but if you run into some bastards, who can you reason with?"

This problem has existed since ancient times.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, powerful warlords carved up the land, and various lords vied for supremacy.

Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo were both powerful and influential families.

Even Liu Bei, Liu Xuande, was a distant relative of the royal family.

The Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and even the Sui and Tang Dynasties were all periods of great upheaval and turmoil dominated by aristocratic families.

It wasn't until the Song Dynasty, with the implementation of the imperial examination system, that the monopoly of aristocratic families on the court truly began to be broken, and it was only then that children from humble backgrounds began to rise to prominence. Even so, aristocratic families still found it easier to produce successful candidates in the imperial examinations and become high-ranking officials.

Even at the height of the imperial examination system—the Ming Dynasty.

The struggle between the imperial court and various powerful families never ceased, and in the Ming Dynasty, a new form of power struggle emerged—factional strife.

The Ming Dynasty effectively collapsed due to factional strife!

This isn't just idle talk.

When Li Zicheng, the rebel leader, was about to capture Beijing, Emperor Chongzhen ordered a fundraising campaign for military expenses. Various wealthy families put on a show of poverty and refused to contribute any money. In the end, when the city fell and their families perished, they still managed to extract 20 million taels of silver from the city!

Tsk, they really only recognize their clan, not their country.

The so-called imperial court and official power are not for the country and the people; they are merely tools for seizing personal gain.

This situation improved dramatically during the Qing Dynasty.

Because the Manchu Qing Royal Court constantly suppressed the Han people in order to consolidate its royal power, its suspicion of the Han people reached the point of being based on mere rumors. As a result, it launched a large-scale literary inquisition, resulting in countless deaths. Thus, only the sounds of flattery echoed throughout the court and the country.

So much so that while the Western world was undergoing tremendous changes, palace intrigue was unfolding in the East? Although this is a joke, the Qing Dynasty did indeed have a remarkable track record of emasculating the progress of the times in order to consolidate its power.

In modern times,

With the exchange of information, people's wisdom has been enlightened, and the world is thriving. Whether they are commoners or from noble families, they all have the opportunity to compete on the same stage.

certainly,

There is still a significant gap in resources between commoners and scions of noble families.

Often, the end point of your life's struggle is not even as good as the Qidian of someone else's birth...

It's really depressing to think about.

It's at least much better than the feudal era. You have the opportunity to work hard and make changes, and you have the environment to create a better life.

As for those who complain about class stratification, the widening gap between the rich and the poor, and the increasingly unbalanced distribution of resources... Admittedly, these problems do exist, but hard work has not completely lost its effectiveness.

Talent and resources are certainly important.

only,

Given the level of effort many people put in, they are far from reaching the point where they can compete on resources or talent.

Feng Li licked his lips, his face fierce, and said, "There are still many scions of powerful families who feel they deserve more resources and a higher status. Their voices should have more power—"

Ha, you get all the benefits? What era are we living in? What more could you want?

Second update. First day of adjusting my sleep schedule... it's painful. I keep dozing off. I heard that going bald makes you stronger... but then I think, I'm only in my early twenties, so forget it. Two updates today. Hope you enjoy reading. See you tomorrow.
