Chapter Title: Heavenly Realm
Taiping Dao?
I was dumbfounded by Il-ro's words. Taiping Dao was a folk religion that had surged in popularity at the end of the Later Han dynasty, the force behind what could be called the first large-scale peasant rebellion in history. Though it had been suppressed, it was Taiping Dao that destroyed the rotten Later Han and paved the way for the era of the Three Kingdoms, when warlords rose up everywhere. That was why every scholar who studied literature and history knew all about Taiping Dao.
The problem was that Taiping Dao had emerged a staggering fifteen hundred years ago. Far earlier than the Manchus era, even decades before Zhuge Wu Hou's time—it was truly ancient history.
The Cult Leader pondered for a moment before responding.
[They say they can't overcome it without our help?]
[Yes.]
[That boy is disappointing. To think he lacks the power to suppress a mere rebellion...]
Il-ro hurriedly continued, as if to correct the Cult Leader's misunderstanding.
