Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

"Exactly! In this day and age, money is the most important thing!"

……

The topic of deities went viral, and with the unified promotion of major corporations, the entire internet was abuzz.

Some experts have come forward to argue that the three deities from the West are actually incarnations of Nuwa, Pangu, and others, and that worshipping them is a virtue that has been cherished in China since ancient times.

A research team published a paper showing that people who believe in the three deities have experienced significant improvements in their physical fitness and immunity.

The television station repeatedly publicized a certain extremely devout man, claiming that he knelt and prayed until he fainted in front of the temple, and was named the model of faith for the year. His story spread throughout the country...

Meanwhile, some who publicly voiced their doubts were imprisoned or even eliminated.

……

Li Lan looked up and activated his Heavenly Eye. He could indeed see the power of faith from countless people converging on temples in the major human cities...

The major corporations have indeed succeeded.

He could only sigh; throughout history, rulers have always used only two tools to control people's hearts:

Moral rule of thought.

The law governs the flesh.

Experts, Confucian scholars, heroes... education, articles, stories... these things are the foundation of morality, supporting the edifice of morality. Anyone who is not within this edifice will be regarded as a heretic, condemned by people and writers, criticized, looked down upon, or even killed by those around them.

The law is a set of strict rules, but its essence is violence. Violation will result in imprisonment, torture, or even beheading.

By employing a two-pronged approach, the mind is tamed and the body is controlled, thus creating obedient subjects.

These two tools are often invincible.

Those who control these two tools can make the world believe whatever they want, and the world can only believe whatever they want. Right and wrong, black and white, are all determined by their words. In a sense, they truly "make their words law."

This power is—authority.

This is also the source of evil.

Do you really think that no one in the world can control you?

Li Lan's gaze turned slightly cold, and then he went directly to the headquarters of the nearest major power—the Zhong Group.

The city where the Zhong Group is located has been renamed "Zhong City". It is incredibly prosperous with a population of over ten million and is a super metropolis that protects the country. Now, in the most bustling area, several temples have been erected. The Zhong Group held a grand event, which was attended by important figures.

Before the temple, the patriarch and head of the Zhong family personally knelt and offered incense, while behind them, all the social elites of Zhongcheng came and knelt in worship as well.

"May the three gods protect Zhongcheng and the Zhong family!"

The Zhong clan leader cried out!

"Hey, it's glowing!"

At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed, and everyone looked up to see a dazzling light appearing above the vast temple!

Everyone was excited.

"The gods have manifested! The gods have manifested!"

"Great!"

"There really are gods! Our piety moved them!"

Everyone exclaimed in surprise, and even the Zhong clan patriarch and others were shocked and hurriedly kowtowed repeatedly!

But at that moment, a figure suddenly emerged from the light. The person had an otherworldly air about him, wearing a long robe, and looked just like the "immortals" in various ancient Chinese legends!

With a flick of his whisk, a terrifying force descended, causing the entire temple to collapse instantly, and the statues inside the temple to explode!

"what happened?"

"Why?!"

"The temple was destroyed. Wasn't he... wasn't he a manifestation of the god from the temple?"

Everyone was shocked.

And the calm voice of the immortal holding the whisk had already reached everyone's ears:

"To kneel before an evil god is an unforgivable sin. China has its own righteous gods; how can we kneel before the ghosts of a foreign land?"

As soon as he finished speaking, suddenly, everyone in the Zhong Group at the forefront screamed in agony.

"what!"

"No!"

"Help me, help me!"

The Zhong clan patriarch, core elders, and members were all bleeding from all seven orifices, their faces horribly grotesque. Their bodies felt as if they were being torn apart by a thousand knives, writhing, convulsing in agony on the ground...

Other social celebrities and upper-class individuals also vomited blood on the spot and suffered a great calamity!

"How is this going……"

"This...this is the immortal of our China? The immortal of China has manifested?"

"Wrong, completely wrong! Believing in Western evil gods has incurred the wrath of the Chinese deities!"

Everyone else who saw this was horrified!

The immortal had already vanished in a beam of light.

"Something's not right. We can't keep kneeling and worshiping the gods!"

"There's something wrong with these gods!"

Many people realized what was happening and hurriedly spoke up!

Li Lan had already entered a secret room in the Zhong Group building.

This is the Zhong family's most important treasure trove, heavily guarded. There are three Foundation Establishment cultivators here, and nuclear weapons have also been deployed. If anyone forcibly breaks in and cannot resist, everything will be completely destroyed.

But all of this was in vain in front of Li Lan; all defenses were rendered ineffective.

Li Lan casually entered and glanced around.

The secret chamber was filled with treasures that the Zhong family had collected from various places over the years, including some antiquities and various scriptures.

Many of them contain secret techniques of immortals.

Li Lan waved his hand and took them all!

This was part of what he and Kuafu had agreed upon.

The immortal inheritances on Earth are the fruits of the efforts of the ancestral gods and immortals of the Emperor Star, and absolutely cannot be obtained by the Divine Realm. Therefore, Li Lan needs to collect all these things before the planned final battle so that he can take them with him when he leaves...

Now that all the major powers have switched sides, Li Lan doesn't need to be polite with them; he'll just take it by force!

He took the things and walked through Zhongcheng, which was now in complete chaos.

"All of Zhong's top executives are dead!"

"Not only that, everyone who believes in gods has been killed. There's something wrong with that..."

"Stop going to the temple to burn incense!"

Countless people were on the move, and the news spread rapidly!

Li Lan remained calm.

How to deal with people who control resources and power?

Reasonable?

That's useless.

The demise of the physical body is the most complete.

Just kill them all!

Huang Chao trampled the bones of high-ranking officials on the main street, Li Zicheng burned the imperial treasury to ashes, Xiang Yu burned the Epang Palace and slaughtered the Qin Dynasty... On the land of China, the changes of history and the rise and fall of dynasties have always been built with blood, without any other method.

However, Li Lan doesn't have to work as hard as his predecessors. In today's world, he is the true god who rules over everything!
