Chapter 518: Chapter 466: Let them suffer a bit, I’ll take the blame.
Ever since the rise of Pei Xuanjing, during the Great Morning Meeting at the Imperial City, he broke the monopolistic control of the Great Ming royal family and thereby wrested some of the powers that previously belonged to the Great Ming royal family and the imperial court. It can be said that he created an opening for various forces worldwide.
Afterward, Pei Xuanjing teamed up with various forces of the Taoist School, broke the seal of Heaven and Earth, revived the Heaven and Earth once again, paving the way for the global martial artists.
In the subsequent battle outside the border, several factions were promoted to the Divine Position by the Divine Dynasty…
Each of these events undoubtedly gained them the favor of these great powers, as the interests gained by these large forces were significantly more than those earned by ordinary martial artists.
However, there are two sides to everything. Despite them reaping substantial benefits from the events promoted by Pei Xuanjing, these incidents led to both worldly martial artists and the Great Ming imperial court gaining even more.
Take for example the Military City that Pei Xuanjing gifted to the global martial artists outside the border. After the promotion of Great Ming to the Divine Dynasty, with the increasing strength of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, they would naturally strive to suppress various forces again. It’s an inevitable trend, absolutely irreversible.
Why would the Great Ming Divine Dynasty support Pei Xuanjing’s proposal to establish the Taoist Academy this time? Because the Great Ming Divine Dynasty understands that it would be the ultimate beneficiary. With countless martial artists rising without any background, their dependence on these large forces would reduce, and there would be more people to replace them.
“Ever since the appearance of Grandmaster Pei, while we seemingly gained more benefits, the actual proportion we hold in the world has been reduced.”
This was an evaluation made by a wise person in a great power about everything that Pei Xuanjing had done.
