The Heavenly Way is balanced!
Recently, I have been talking about this Three Immortals Offering Cauldron formation.
...
This is actually a metaphor, because I don't know who Heaven is!
In Sun Wukong's era, there were already many immortals. Even with Sun Wukong's abilities to ascend to heaven and travel through the earth, he only obtained a minor official position in the immortal realm after battling the ten thousand heavenly soldiers.
In that story, how did humans become immortals?
It was very difficult!
When Sun Wukong was learning from Bodhi, Bodhi mentioned many methods, but in the end, they were all like chasing the moon in the water, and immortality could not be obtained at all.
...
This world is the same. The wealthy people are always the same, and the powerful are always limited. The saying circulating in the world is not unfounded; they say it is hard for commoners to produce noble sons anymore.
At this point, everyone should understand!
...
It was the same in Sun Wukong's era. It was difficult for humans to become immortals, yet the number of immortals continued to increase. Why?
Because some things could be consumed to directly become immortals: Taishang Laojun's Golden Elixir, the Queen Mother's Peaches of Immortality, and Zhenyuan Great Immortal's Ginseng Fruit. Eating these things meant no need for cultivation, no need to worry about lightning tribulations, and one could directly become an immortal.
No matter how difficult it was to obtain these things, they were always a shortcut.
...
Let's look at the situation at that time from this perspective.
"Logical Paradox" is a strange organization, but what it promotes is a pigeon-hawk game, and it wants more hawks to dominate this world.
"Monster Forest" goes even further to an extreme. If one does not look out for oneself, heaven and earth will destroy them. They are reinforcing the ideology of certain chaebols and shaking the foundations of the world.
The Gao family is not worth mentioning. Gao Ji wants to dominate a region. He has cultivated how much personal influence in the mainland and within the government, only he himself knows.
...
As for "Zhengqi" and "Nanpai," they seem to have done nothing, but is that true? Do you remember the official notice given when "Nanpai" was smashed?
A "big tiger" has fallen!
After a person turned into a villain and was brought to justice, an official was unwilling to reveal his name, which shows his influence.
And this influential person was just a tool for Wang Ren.
...
Let's talk about the immortal realm.
At that time, the Jade Emperor managed the Heavenly Court. It was not impossible for him to confiscate the Peaches of Immortality, the Elixir Furnace, and the Ginseng Fruit Tree directly. But the price to pay would have been too great.
There is no specific description for the Queen Mother, but for Taishang Laojun and the Ginseng Fruit, the trouble they caused during the Tang Monk's pilgrimage was immense.
Zhenyuan Great Immortal, with his sleeve hidden universe, could not be escaped even by Sun Wukong, who could travel 108,000 li in a single somersault. Taishang Laojun himself did not act, but his mount, the Green Ox, armed with a ring made by Taishang Laojun, caused considerable trouble for the heavenly soldiers and generals.

Think about it, if they were confiscated directly, wouldn't the Jade Emperor also suffer losses?
...
Similarly, Li Jiu's side is also not to be trifled with. Even an entire city was deceived by his subordinates. Ke Yingying was not conspicuous in Li Jiu's training class, but she still obtained evidence of corruption from several city officials.
The old Gao side, too, is taking solid steps, one foot after the other.
As for Wang Zeyue and Wang Ren, let's not even mention them; their internal affairs are in disarray.
...
At this time, the Jade Emperor wanted to regain the three strange treasures, and he used this Three Immortals Offering Cauldron formation.
Out of nowhere, Sun Wukong, who leaped from a stone, destroyed the Peaches of Immortality, kicked over the Elixir Furnace, and ate all the Golden Elixirs. The Buddha then pressed him under the Five Elements Mountain. Everyone thought the karmic retribution was over. But then, Sun Wukong became part of the pilgrimage, and in the end, even the Ginseng Fruit Tree could not escape disaster and was pushed over.
...
Is the real world in the same situation? Directly eliminating these organizations might cause social instability. Therefore, "above" sent Old Ghost to scout for a person who could solve the problems faced by "above."
I was chosen!
To be honest, when I first became a Schemer, no one probably looked up to me. My IQ was average, and my EQ was also average. Even a small fry like Boss Xie could trick me into jumping off a building. If it were me, in this position, I wouldn't think that the past me had anything special.
However, I am that Monkey King. With the intentional or unintentional help of Old Ghost, I destroyed "Logical Paradox." Those hidden within "Logical Paradox" transformed into "Monster Forest," and I destroyed "Monster Forest" as well.
Wang Zeyue did not benefit either. "Zhengqi," hidden underground for so long, was exposed by me, and the "big tigers" have fallen!
...
Everyone thought I would calm down after experiencing these events. But what did I do? I rushed to Hong Kong without stopping. I felt that fate had led me there, but looking back, that's not the case at all! I was being led like someone pulling a string, just like Sun Wukong wreaking havoc in heaven, being pressed under the Five Elements Mountain, and then having to undertake the pilgrimage. It seemed like a precarious fate, but in reality, from the moment he was born, he was already arranged.
...
I overcame all obstacles, and these people were defeated by me. Like Sun Wukong, I experienced hardships and arrived before the Buddha, with victory within reach.
However, the Buddha calculated with his fingers and found that there were eighty-one tribulations, and one remained.
I cannot reach the shore!
This has always been my style and philosophy since becoming a qualified Schemer. Most of the people I helped chose to help me, but only Li Feng was different. He didn't betray me, but he killed my senior sister.
I am not a saint, and this matter has always bothered me. Therefore, in my final plan, I did not intend to let Li Feng continue on his path.
If I had not interfered, he might have transitioned from an informant to a civil servant. With his abilities and Wang Ren's help, he would have soared. Perhaps in a few years, he would have become a promising candidate, and in a few more years, Li Feng would have become another Li Qiang.
Unfortunately, there are no "ifs" in this world.
I arrived at Li Feng's residence. Although Li Feng was still renting, he was not renting a basement anymore, but a one-bedroom apartment. He was living quite comfortably.
I knocked on the door. When Li Feng opened it and saw me, he looked somewhat uncomfortable.
"Why are you here?" he asked.
"You don't welcome me?" I asked back with a smile.
"No!"
I didn't pay much attention to his discomfort because I came today to make him uncomfortable.
"Can I come in?"
"Of course!"
Li Feng invited me in, and I sat on the sofa.
This room was nice, and the TV was quite large. Li Feng went to the kitchen to make me a cup of tea. He placed the tea on the coffee table in front of me and smiled, asking, "How did you find me?"
"I won't tell you how. For a local like Da Huang, finding someone in Beijing, this small territory, is not difficult."
"So it's Mr. Huang."
Li Feng muttered awkwardly. I stared into his eyes, and he looked away slightly. I smiled slightly and said, "The environment is good now. Why haven't you brought Aunt Qin to live with you?"
"She won't come. She's used to living in the mountain village?"
"Is that so? Aunt Qin has really bad luck. Not only was she trafficked, but she ended up with the name Black Widow. However, those three brothers died quite mysteriously. They were in their prime and had no major illnesses, yet they all died."
After I said this, Li Feng's expression completely changed.
"Tang Nan, what exactly do you want to say?"
"For the past few days, I've been thinking about how Teacher Wang Ren judged that others would definitely commit crimes in the future. I thought about it for a long time and finally figured it out. In fact, in this matter, I have to thank Gao Ziyan."
"Tang Nan, I don't understand what you're saying."
"At that time, I had a bet with Teacher Wang Ren. She said there were three people who would definitely be criminals in the future. The first one was you, the second was my good brother Chang Dachun, and the third was Gao Ziyan from the Gao family."
"I was forced to. I didn't want to kill Cao Qian; she wanted to kill me, so I defended myself."
Hearing Li Feng say this, I couldn't help but laugh. "Don't rush, listen to me. After I finish speaking, you can decide whether you want to explain."
"What do you want to say?"
Li Feng looked very nervous. He guessed what I was going to say?
However, I didn't indulge his wish and started from the beginning: "Everyone has their own behavioral habits. When people make mistakes, they always say, 'If I had another chance, I would definitely not choose this path.' In fact, there are never choices in this world. The path has already been determined by your personality. If you choose again, you will still take the old road."
Li Feng was completely unhappy with my words.
"Tang Nan, if you're here to preach to me today, then I don't welcome you."
"Don't worry, no one is preaching to you anymore. I'm here to tell you that the reason Wang Ren was certain you would commit a crime is because you have already made similar choices. She just believes that you will make the same choice when you encounter similar situations. Simply put, before you killed Cao Qian, you were already close to murder in the face of such a choice."
