Demon Lord 3

After much deliberation, I finally decided to go back. It was pointless sleeping here for so long. Doing useless things not only wastes time, but also damages my vitality. If I use up all my energy now, I won't even have time to continue on my journey. We haven't accomplished nothing over there either; we still need to cultivate! After waking up, everyone went out to work. I knew I must have slept for a long time. I was also very tired in my dream. After waking up, I couldn't move. I sat aside again, thinking back to my dream. I had fought with absolute skill, unleashing 99% of my strength, but it wasn't even a fraction of what that person had fought. I sighed and felt that my strength was really too weak. Not only compared to him, but also compared to the people around me, I wasn't the strongest one. Was my life going to stop here? But when I used my current strength to accomplish many things, I didn't think so. Why was I so depressed? I tried to pull myself together, but I didn't have the energy. I felt paralyzed. Finally, I managed to get up. It took me a long time to sit down on the edge of the bed, but I still couldn't recover. I felt like everything was in vain. I finally sat closer to the window, hoping to get some fresh air. After all, everything had just been so surreal. But regardless of whether it was real or not, it was all a dream. Even if it was too real, I couldn't help but wake up unwillingly. Perhaps it was my admiration for the powerful, but in my heart, I still had some feelings for that so-called true god. I felt he should be our friend, or at least not our enemy. I felt he could be used to my advantage, but what could I do with him? I couldn't seem to remember whether he was too powerful. It wasn't a good idea to treat him as my friend or my enemy. If he was my friend, he would definitely be the strongest in the team, and we would never be able to surpass him, and he wouldn't be able to help us reach a certain level of cultivation. If he was our enemy, it would be even more troublesome. If he was our enemy, he would be constantly wary of us, plotting against us. Mr. Qin called me again, asking why the dream had suddenly shattered. I said I didn't know why, and whether it was because the dream no longer mattered to me. Mr. Qin was incredulous, saying that even my father hadn't seen it coming. He said he didn't know how it had just vanished. He asked if I had done anything. I said I didn't know, but it seemed like I had met someone powerful! It was the shadowy figure from the dream. Actually, I was still lying here, because I had met the True God, but I hadn't told anyone. I had always let everyone know about the existence of the shadowy figure, but not the True God. It was a secret between me and the True God. I didn't want everyone to know about the True God so early. Later, I found a new thing to do here. With Zhang Qiwei joining us, our business expanded rapidly. With his help, we were able to establish a firm foothold here, but it wasn't enough. Information hadn't spread yet, and we couldn't be considered true kings yet. Having status doesn't guarantee control over the political landscape here. We can drive economic development and monopolize information. Then there's the people's hearts. He who wins their hearts wins the world. We deeply believe in this. If we don't, then we can't win the world. Later, I thought again about how to win their hearts. I still wanted to focus on the economy, but ultimately gave up on governing a country. If we relied solely on economics or military suppression, we would surely decline. We still needed to monopolize technology and information, but we didn't want to release that information so quickly. We thought we could have the best of both worlds, but unexpectedly, we ran into difficulties. Everyone was racking their brains over this, and we hadn't slept well in the past few days. Yan Hongchun, the leader of this world, also suggested, "To stabilize the people's hearts, we still need to compare religious beliefs. Before there was information here, it seemed that only religion could inherit what religion said. Since there is no formal religion here, we can try using Buddhism and Taoism."
