Chapter 193 Zhaojiao
Chapter 193 Zhaojiao
When the conversation reached a point of mutual understanding, the sisters couldn't help but start chatting.
"Junior Sister, I live in the Underworld and have read many stories from the Human Realm. I've noticed that the characters who get their stories slapped in the face the most are female characters. Do you think it's because they've never held any authority?"
"Yes, women in the human world have always been in a position of being powerless. The powerless can only be exploited, and at most they can get a little sympathy from those in power."
But so what? Sympathy isn't worth much.
When those in power record local customs and traditions, they may record the hardworking and miserable powerless person in their eyes, but they rarely think about changing the fate of the powerless person.
Changing the tragic fate of a powerless person will inevitably harm the interests of a person in power.
Those in power often show mutual respect, while those out of power are prone to attacking each other. Senior sister, why do you think that is?
Meng Jing said solemnly, "Turbidity is the norm in the world, and mediocrity is the common state of affairs. Those who lose power are pitiful, but they are also unable to stand up for themselves. Otherwise, have they truly had no chance to resist for hundreds of thousands of years?"
Ye Qingzhou nodded and smiled, "Senior sister, there are very few people like us who are born to be in power. I am very curious about how you would treat those who have lost power."
"The differences between all beings begin from the moment they are born, and I have no say in the differences that arise from birth. But the differences that arise from later life can be made up for. If I were in power, I would probably open up a channel for them to advance."
Ye Qingzhou smiled and said, "Senior Sister is very righteous. In my opinion, the difference between the innate and acquired is determined by the merits of the previous life, while the difference between the acquired and acquired is determined by the individual and the environment. In the human world, there is another difference between the sexes, which is because the social system of the human world favors men."
Meng Jing sighed softly, "Actually, the underworld also has a bit of a preference for men. There are too many beings in the human world, and many ghost cultivators in the underworld are transformed from human cultivators after death, and they have a huge influence in the underworld. Although they have arrived in the underworld, their thoughts are still those of the human world. I don't like the human world. No matter how miserable the men in the human world are, they can still exploit a woman. As a woman myself, I pity them, but I also know that fate cannot be changed at will."
Ye Qingzhou pondered, "We are cultivators from other races, so it is indeed not appropriate for us to interfere in the affairs of the human realm. However, if women in the human realm can stand on their own, I think the entire cultivation world will be transformed."
"The human realm has the largest population of all six realms. If every woman could become independent, it would be a great merit. Junior Sister, do you have any thoughts?"
Ye Qingzhou smiled gently, "Does Senior Sister know Chen Lai?"
"She currently serves in the Thirty-Three Hell Towers of the Underworld. Do you perhaps want her to return to the human realm?"
Ye Qingzhou nodded, "She was originally a woman from the human realm. The fact that she was able to cultivate a Golden Core under such harsh conditions shows her excellent aptitude and good character. Sending her back to the human realm to help women become self-reliant is the most appropriate thing to do."
Meng Jing frowned. "This is a good idea, but she is only at the Golden Core stage. Promoting female independence in the mortal realm might bring her death."
"Senior sister is indeed kind-hearted. Since I have come up with this idea, I naturally have a countermeasure."
Meng Jing tapped Ye Qingzhou's nose. "Alright, you dare to tease me. Now tell me."
"First of all, the promotion of women's independence must never be done openly, otherwise it will not only bring trouble, but Chen Lai's position in the underworld will also be found out soon."
"Secondly, Chen Lai's life is in danger when she returns, mainly because she lacks life-saving elixirs and magical treasures. I'm willing to give her ten drops of Everlasting Dew. As for magical treasures, hehe, Senior Sister is the young master of the Underworld, so she must be very wealthy. I won't compete with you for them."
"Finally, I plan to send Chen Lai to the Kingdom of Yu to study for a few years. Chen Lai suffered severe psychological trauma during her youth, and the matriarchal environment of the Kingdom of Yu can help her recover sooner. After she recovers, we will send her to the human world to secretly promote women's independence."
Meng Jing pinched Ye Qingzhou's cheek. "You're so clever for your age. We can't decide this ourselves; we need to get Master's approval first."
"Even now..."
“Let’s wait a few more days! Today is your special day, so let’s put everything else aside for now. I’ll first draft a plan and then examine Chen Lai’s character. If she passes the test, I’ll then tell Master about our plan.”
The apprentice-acceptance ceremony officially ended three days later. Ye Xingming instructed Ye Qingzhou, "The Underworld Lord's cultivation is very high, so you should stay in the Underworld for a hundred years and learn your skills well. I was worried that you would spend a lot of time getting along with Meng Jing, but I didn't expect you two to get along so well. You've been inseparable these past few days."
Ye Qingzhou snuggled up to Ye Xingming with a grin and revealed his and Meng Jing's plans in detail.
Ye Xingming smiled helplessly, "You're really bold, talking about ideals with someone you've only just met. Be careful next time, or you'll get sold out."
"Hehe! My senior sister and I hit it off immediately."
"If the Lord of the Underworld agrees to this, please tell me again, and perhaps my clan can also get a share."
If hundreds of millions of women in the human realm could become self-reliant, the merit they would accumulate would be beyond imagination.
Ye Qingzhou smiled slightly, “Not only my clan, but the entire demon race will benefit from this. Observing the customs of the six realms, the women of my demon realm are the most independent. If the human realm wants to be independent, it will definitely learn from my demon realm. In terms of education, teachers are still needed. Mother Queen, the future holy teacher of the human race will definitely have a place in my clan. I hope you will take the time to find a suitable candidate in the clan.”
"My son, why don't you become that holy teacher?"
"Mother Queen, if this matter succeeds, Senior Sister Meng Jing and I will both be founders of the sect. Why should we care about the Holy Master's bit of luck and merit?"
Ye Xingming clapped his hands and laughed, "My son, I will definitely pave a path to godhood for you."
Ye Qingzhou's eyebrows twitched, and he realized something was wrong. He had almost forgotten that his mother loved raising children like chickens.
"Mother Queen, the path to godhood cannot be rushed. It is better to do this one thing well first."
Ye Xingming patted Ye Qingzhou's head, "My son, the future of the little panda clan depends entirely on you."
Meng Jing was extremely efficient. Ye Xingming had barely left when Meng Jing pulled her aside to report to An Qi.
Anqi was extremely satisfied with this plan, praised the two women, and then said, "This matter is too great for the Underworld to handle. I plan to write to Fellow Daoist Feng Jiaojiao and unite the power of the two realms to create the Zhao Sect, so that all women in the world can be like the sun and moon in the sky, rather than the grass under their feet."
Ye Qingzhou praised, "Master's actions are truly righteous. This will surely benefit women from all realms. Your disciple respectfully requests that Master and the Demon Lord become the leaders of the Zhao Sect. The Demon Realm is in the west, so the Demon Lord will be the Western Leader of the Zhao Sect; the Underworld is in the east, so Master will be the Eastern Leader of the Zhao Sect. Your disciple is unworthy, but I am willing to serve as envoys of the Zhao Sect together with Senior Sister, to share the burden with Master and the Demon Lord."
“Your suggestion is good. Jing will be the Left Envoy, and you will be the Right Envoy. Chen Lai will be the leader of the Human Realm branch. The two of you should teach Chen Lai well. She is currently the most suitable person to go to the Human Realm to promote women’s independence.”
The two women said in unison, "Your disciples will follow your teachings and will certainly not fail in your trust."
