…

Inside the Jade Void Palace.

Yun Zhongzi rode the clouds and flew into the main hall, landing before the empty throne and saluted the seat with clasped hands.

Wisps of immortal light seemed to coalesce from the Void, transforming into a dark green wide-sleeved robe, within which lay the unparalleled Dao Body that took the form of Yuanshi Tianzun’s silhouette.

“Teacher,” Yun Zhongzi bowed in salute.

“Hmm, calling you here suddenly, it’s just to chat casually,” Yuanshi Tianzun frowned slightly, “The Heavenly Dao is undergoing changes, and it seems to be related to Ping’an again.”

“This?”

Yun Zhongzi hurriedly asked, “Teacher, may I know how the Heavenly Dao is changing?”

“Previously, the heavenly secrets were chaotic, the Heavenly Dao rejected the powerful creatures between heaven and earth, and the Six Great Masters were all unable to deduce the heavenly secrets.”

Yuanshi Tianzun spoke slowly:

“At this moment, the Heavenly Dao seems to be brewing some kind of order, something that has never happened since ancient times.”

Yun Zhongzi pondered for a moment: “Teacher, perhaps it is because the Heavenly Court is about to be established, the Heavenly Dao must be laying some groundwork.

In my humble opinion, the Heavenly Dao has not yet developed sentience, nor is it easy for it to do so, it is merely the interplay of various rules.”

“Although the Heavenly Dao lacks sentience, it is a hundred times more complex than all living beings.”

Yuanshi Tianzun sighed lightly:

“This matter may be related to me.”

“What do you mean by that, Teacher?”

Yuanshi Tianzun said, “One of your nominal disciples has passed away due to succumbing to demons.

I assisted him, brought Ping’an into dreams, and through his hand, bestowed Ping’an with many experiences of the Great Dao of Clouds.”

Yun Zhongzi said, “That was just your guidance to Ping’an, which should have nothing to do with the Heavenly Dao.

Teacher, I will go and check on Ping’an right now.”

“He is currently within the Cast Cloud Sect,” Yuanshi Tianzun said, “when you see him, do not mention other matters, just ask about the changes in the Heavenly Dao.”

“Yes, Disciple understands.”

Yun Zhongzi bowed deeply with a Daoist salute and transformed into a beam of light, hastily departing.

Yuanshi Tianzun stroked his beard and chanted quietly, then raised his right hand again to pinch and calculate, speaking slowly, “Elder brother, I ask for your assistance once again.”

A thread of profound Dao Charm sprinkled down from nowhere.

Yuanshi Tianzun continued to deduce with care, his brow furrowing deeper and deeper.

The Heavenly Dao, it’s becoming more and more unfamiliar.

…

“Today’s lecture ends here.”

Li Dazhi cleared his throat, slowly stood up, and spoke softly:

“Comrade of the Heavenly Dao.”

The faceless being stood up and said, “Yes, Comrade Dazhi!”

“The homework for this time is to write an essay of no less than two thousand words.

Hand your homework to Ping’an.”

Li Dazhi said:

“Ping’an, you also need to write an essay of no less than five hundred words.”

Li Ping’an hastily said, “Dad, I’m currently working on the Autonomous Celestial Armor, I might not have much time.”

“What’s with the ‘dad’?

When teaching, you must call by the title!”

“Alright, fine, Teacher, I don’t have the time.”

“Then you are responsible for helping Comrade Heavenly Dao with the editing.”

Li Dazhi waved his hand, about to leave, but then he seemed to remember something and looked towards Li Ping’an:

“Almost forgot, there’s also your class…

don’t talk too much, I’m afraid you won’t be able to digest it.”

The faceless being said, “Please rest assured, Comrade Dazhi, I can absorb the endless messages of this world, as it is within the rules, it won’t affect any living beings.”

Li Ping’an:…

He can’t handle it!

He’s still being backfired by the power of the Heavenly Dao, even speaking very slowly!

Wait, that’s not right.

“I’m back to normal?”

Li Ping’an made some wrist-flexing gestures, as the tiny Primordial Spirit figure raised its hand to pat his cheek.

The faceless being said, “This is based on the rules, some special privileges granted to the Heavenly Emperor.

The backlash of the Heavenly Dao has been transferred to Guiling Holy Mother previously, and considering her own strength, she will be imprisoned for one month.”

“The word ‘privilege’ is actually very accurate.”

Li Dazhi quickly grasped the crux and spoke softly:

“Then let me add two more simple points.”

The faceless being bowed and said, “That would be most welcome.”

Li Ping’an’s feet slipped, he turned around to beat a hasty retreat, but Li Dazhi grabbed him by the collar and pulled him back.

Maintaining his mild voice, Li Dazhi spoke at length:

“What is power?

“Power is a byproduct of order; power stems from the dependence on order generated from the bottom up.

The imperial power is a microcosm of order, while the privileged class is a tool for power to exploit from the top down.

“Most ordinary people in their lives can’t precisely sense the presence of imperial power, but they can feel the sense of security derived from the basic order assurance when imperial power is stable.

“—Specifically, that one has laws to abide by, and this law does not only refer to legal law.

“The corruption of power comes from human greed, the inflation of the privileged class, the oppression of those at the bottom, and the gradual loss of their sense of security, which is often the root of order instability.

“Therefore, after pondering, to establish the Heavenly Court, at least three steps are needed now.

“First, to have the Heavenly Court exist in form.

“Second, to establish the Heavenly Court in the hearts of all beings.

“Third, to use the Heavenly Court to establish a new order, making beings develop a dependency on order.

“And then to suppress the privileged class, to fight against systemic corruption, this is a prolonged war, and any slackening will allow the order to collapse gradually.

“In this process, we must also make more beings accept the fact that they are the basic units under the protection of order, while the immortals within the Heavenly Court are the future privileged class.

How to restrict their humanity and enhance their divinity, these are the problems you must contemplate.”

“Alright, class is over.”

Li Ping’an made a quick getaway on slippery feet.

Li Dazhi and the little golden faceless being exchanged Daoist salutes, then turned around to leave.

He walked out of the great hall, hands clasped behind his back, descending into the clouds below.

‘Are all these insights left to Ping’an by Teacher?’
