The demon world I designed.

Chapter 1070 Dao Sect
"Your Majesty, the Grand Historian and Duke of Lu have all quietly gone to the Buddhist temple in the capital to place orders, and there are also some others."

Inside the imperial palace in the capital, the emperor listened patiently to his subordinates' reports, memorized every name, and then waved his hand to let them leave.

After the man stepped down, a child slowly walked out from behind the dragon throne. It was Zhang Zhengyuan who had been detained here by the emperor.

"It seems to be true." The emperor actually sat down on the stairs, with an extremely complicated look in his eyes.

The Duke of Lu was not very powerful, and his bloodline was far inferior to that of the Yuchi family, but he was loyal enough to the Xiao family. This Duke of Lu and himself grew up in the same boat. Both were bastards and were not valued by the family, but in the end they both became the patriarchs of the family.

In terms of feelings, Duke Lu's relationship with him was even deeper than Duke Yuchi and the Hong family, but even such a confidant had gone to the Buddhist temple.
"Your Majesty seems a little sad?" Zhang Zhengyuan looked at the emperor's somewhat lonely expression and felt a little curious.

He had only met this emperor a few times and didn't know him very well, but he knew from his aura that he was an iron-blooded emperor. How could such a person have such emotions?

It seems that the NPCs in this world are indeed very humanized, much higher than those in the Zhu Xian world, and are almost indistinguishable from real people.

"A person I have known since childhood, with whom I have been living day and night, is the most trustworthy. But one day, he suddenly became a stranger, saying that it was the influence of his past life memories. Haha, what do you want me to think?"

The emperor looked at the other party and said, "If a brother who grew up with you, or a wife who lived with you day and night, betrayed you one day because he awakened some memories of his past life, what would you think?"

Zhang Zhengyuan opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond for a moment. This kind of thing would never happen in Data City, but if you put yourself in their shoes, it is indeed creepy enough.

What could be more terrifying than someone very close to you suddenly turning into someone else?

"No wonder it is said that it is difficult for mortals to resist the ancients. It is true." For the first time, the emperor's tone was somewhat discouraged: "The army and ministers that I have worked so hard to train may no longer be my own one day."

This time, even King Xiang who was in the underworld fell silent.

The Buddhist Kingdom's mechanism is too tricky, because you have no way of judging who they have actually recruited. Those in the capital are still okay, but what about those outside?
At this time, the Ghost King's army is in Jiangnan, and there are Buddhist temples in Jiangnan. Who would know if those people secretly went to worship in the temples?
And these people are hiding in the army, which one do you dare to trust?
After all, anyone can stab you at a critical moment!

He used to mock the King of Qin, saying that his ideas would never succeed. The betrayal of the noble families later was an example, because no one would agree with his idea of ​​the coexistence of humans and demons.

And now
What's different about me?
He has always insisted on the supremacy of the human race, but one day he discovered that many of the human race were reincarnations of demons, and his mood was extremely complicated.

What about yourself?
Wasn’t he also a demon who couldn’t eat human flesh many lifetimes ago?
Can those guys who have awakened their memories, who are wearing human skin but are demons at heart, still be considered human beings?
But if they don’t count, how can they clean it up?
For the first time, he suddenly felt that his faith was shaken.

"Your Majesty, are you going to admit defeat?" Zhang Zhengyuan suddenly asked.

The emperor was stunned and frowned, "Why do you say that?"

"Your Majesty gives me this feeling right now," Zhang Zhengyuan said with a smile, "What Your Majesty said is indeed a little scary, but that is only the influence of the power of the Buddhist Kingdom. If the Buddhist Kingdom disappears, won't there be no such thing in the future?"

"There is no such thing?" The emperor sneered: "Are you deceiving yourself? Forgetting about past lives and present lives?"

"You should have forgotten it." Zhang Zhengyuan looked at the other party in confusion: "Your Majesty, you have never been to Jiangnan, right? They have long been practicing public reincarnation. Many soldiers died in battles, and their memories must be erased in their next life. All the people also know about reincarnation, but this does not prevent them from maintaining their parental feelings for their newborn children, because the previous life is the previous life, and this life is this life!"

The emperor looked at the other person coldly after hearing this: "What about you? If someone reincarnates as your child, will you treat him the same as before?" "If I don't know, of course I will treat him the same as before." Zhang Zhengyuan smiled and said: "Everything in this world is like this. If you know too much, no one will live a good life. Children have no memory of their past lives. I treat them as my parents. Why can't I treat him like my own child? He is my child in this life. What happened in his past life has nothing to do with me?"

"Your Majesty should worry about the protection of the reincarnation system and make sure that people who reincarnate will not awaken from their previous lives. This is the key. The Buddhist country's actions are a move to cause chaos in times of trouble. Such forces should be exterminated!"

The emperor then carefully looked at the other person, and after looking at him for a long time, he finally laughed: "Your personality is quite similar to mine."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

"You are right!" The emperor was cheered up and stood up. "If we can control reincarnation, then all things in the world can reincarnate into our human race. Then the sins of the previous life can be eliminated. People in this life will have nothing to do with the previous life. The current chaos is all caused by the Buddha Kingdom. As long as it is exterminated, such things will never happen again in the future!"

"The question is how to exterminate them?" A cold female voice came from outside.

"Imperial sister?" The emperor stood up and looked at the dusty woman who came in and laughed: "Why did you come back so late?"

"It's a good thing you came back at this time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see your decadent and embarrassing appearance!" the woman sneered.

The emperor showed a rare look of embarrassment.

"Go ahead." The woman looked at Zhang Zhengyuan: "From just now, you have been trying to persuade His Majesty to become an enemy of the Buddhist Kingdom. What is your strategy?"

The emperor then looked at Zhang Zhengyuan. He was influenced by him and came out of his decadence, but he overlooked one point, which was that he didn't have to be an enemy of the Buddhist Kingdom. He could even cooperate with it, right?
Although he had calculated those ancient times, this kind of thing was not a big deal in the eyes of those big forces as long as there was still value in cooperation.

"Your Majesty cannot possibly collude with the Buddha. This is an ideological issue."

“Ideology?”

"Well, I'm talking about philosophy." Zhang Zhengyuan coughed lightly. "Besides, your majesty betrayed the Shenwu Guild before, and the Shenwu Guild is backed by the Buddhist Kingdom. Relatively speaking, cooperating with the Buddhist Kingdom is the most irrational."

"So you mean to cooperate with that thing in the sky?" The woman pointed to the sky, the dazzling golden ladder, which looked like it should be able to compete with the Buddha Kingdom.

"That party can't cooperate." Zhang Zhengyuan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Among the major forces, that party is the one that needs the mortal forces the least!"

"Who else?"

"Daomen!"

"Daomen?"

"Buddhism, Taoism and Demonism are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining," Zhang Zhengyuan said faintly, "And Taoism and Buddhism have the most conflicting philosophies. Buddhism cultivates the afterlife, while Taoism cultivates this life!!"
