Mao Weifang hurriedly defended: "I don't want you to fight for power and profit by any means, just for the sake of the overall situation, there must be someone who stands up and controls the overall situation. And who else has the ability to balance the two major forces of the Yuan family and the reformists in one fell swoop?"

"As for the use of coercive means to eradicate dissidents when necessary, this is also a necessary means to gain political power, and in terms of your character, I believe that you will be able to control the proportions of this, and will not kill innocents indiscriminately. ”

Shi Xiaoling shook his head and said: "I don't know anything about the military and political circles of the Star Continent, how do I know who can use extraordinary means? Not to mention that I have already said that the Star Continent is a modern society, unlike the ancient world where the strong are kings, the common people do not agree with the supremacy of force, otherwise there would not be so many people who oppose the Zhuanzhi** of the Great Fuhrer."

"In fact, in the past year, in addition to practicing, I have also been paying attention to the social conditions and people's livelihood of the Xingchen Continent on the Internet, I think what Li Kang said has a little truth, although many people demand and desire change, but the integrity system of the entire Xingchen Continent has long collapsed, most people are in a state of mind eager for success, the morality of the whole society is declining, and it is difficult to change it in a short period of time, and it is by no means possible to solve the problem by changing a head of state. ”

"I don't know anything about politics, I'm a layman in the reform of the social system, and I don't want to rely on extraordinary means to eradicate dissidents and seize power, so I won't do what you said. ”

Mao Weifang hurriedly said: "Could it be that you just watched the Star Continent fall into chaos and ignore it?"

Shi Xiaoling sighed: "I grew up in the Star Continent, and I still have some understanding of the people on this continent, there are too many problems to be solved, the social system certainly needs to be changed, and the people's quality consciousness needs to be improved urgently, there are too many things that need to be changed, and it is by no means that a certain person or a certain force can solve the problem overnight when he comes to power." ”

"I am self-aware, I have no ability to completely change the status quo of the Star Continent, if I don't get involved in it, I am afraid that sooner or later I will become the next Great Head or Li Kang. So I guess I'd better leave. I always felt that the ancient Bright Moon Continent was more suitable for me, the people there were more simple, and the environment there was more suitable for me as a martial arts cultivator. ”

Mao Weifang looked at Shi Xiaoling in confusion, and didn't understand why Shi Xiaoling was unwilling to stand up and promote the reform of the Star Continent when he obviously held such good cards as the Security Bureau and the Yellow Shirt Army in his hands? Mao Weifang said with some anger: "You have such great ability, but you are unwilling to stand up and take on the responsibility of benefiting the people, I think you are too selfish!"

Shi Xiaoling was silent, he also understood that it was a bit selfish to choose to leave the Star Continent, but he clearly knew that even if he stayed, he would definitely not be able to solve the chaos in the Star Continent. Although this is his birthplace, it has long been a terrible society with rampant materialism and moral degradation, and it is many times more difficult to promote change here than the southern and northern wars in the Mingyue Continent, because it is easy to attack the city, but it is too difficult to change people's hearts.

Mao Weifang knew Shi Xiaoling's temper, once Shi Xiaoling made up his mind, it would be very difficult to persuade him, Mao Weifang sighed and said: "Since you, a martial arts superman, insist on leaving, no one can keep you, but I, Mao Weifang, still have to fight in the Star Continent." Although I am not as capable as you, I always have an expectation for the establishment of a fair constitutional society under the rule of law, and I will do my best. ”

Shi Xiaoling smiled: "I admire Brother Mao's courage and ambition, and I sincerely wish you success." But I also want to warn you that no matter how righteous your goals are, you must not do anything to achieve your goals, as that will inevitably hurt the innocent, and you will eventually deviate from your original intention and become a different person. ”

Mao Weifang's heart was shocked, knowing that Shi Xiaoling was reminding himself that he must not do things by unscrupulous means, otherwise sooner or later he would become another Li Kang or even Yuan Zhongtian.

Mao Weifang nodded and said: "I understand, I used to be a little anxious for success, and I always felt that what I did was to benefit most people, even if I sacrificed some innocent people for this. But since I got to know you, I have gradually changed my mind, and I know that it is impossible to achieve the goal of justice by unrighteous means, otherwise I will become the next Li Kang sooner or later. ”

"Don't worry, I will unite my like-minded comrades-in-arms in the reform faction to fight for the rights and interests of the people by legitimate means, if one day I deviate from the track and become another Li Kang, you can come back at any time to take my life, I have no complaints!"

Shi Xiaoling was a little stunned, he just reminded Mao Weifang not to be too eager to do things, but he didn't expect Mao Weifang to say such a thing. Shi Xiaoling knew that after leaving the Star Continent, he was afraid that it would be difficult to have a chance to come back, so he had to smile bitterly.

Later, the two contacted Zhu Jiang by phone, and asked Zhu Jiang to quickly send a car to pick up Mao Weifang, who in turn urgently contacted a group of like-minded comrades-in-arms in the reformists and the Yellow Shirt Army, and told them the news that Li Kang and the Great Führer had died, so that they could immediately make corresponding preparations.

Zhu Jiang had been eagerly waiting for news from Shi Xiaoling, and was overjoyed when he learned that Mao Weifang had escaped, and soon sent a car to pick him up.

Mao Weifang and Shi Xiaoling joined the yellow-shirted army who came to meet them shortly after driving out of the villa area in the western suburbs, Mao Weifang didn't dare to stay for a long time, held Shi Xiaoling's hand tightly and said: "I don't dare to thank you for saving your life, no matter where you will go in the future, as long as you have a place where you can find my Mao Weifang, I will give an order at any time, even if it is to go to the soup and the fire." ”

Shi Xiaoling smiled: "I will go to the airport soon, and I should return to the Ganquan base soon." If there is no accident, I will travel back to the Bright Moon Continent two thousand years ago again in a month or two, and I don't know when I will be able to come back. Brother Mao, you have high aspirations, and I sincerely hope that you can succeed in the Star Continent. ”

Although the two of them have not been together for a long time, they trust each other very much, and they can argue openly and honestly about anything. However, both of them are also free and easy people, knowing that even if they are reluctant, they still have to go their separate ways, and finally wave goodbye after a strong hug.

Mao Weifang was anxious to unite the reformists and his like-minded comrades in the Yellow Shirt Army to discuss how to expand his power while the Great Führer had just died, while Shi Xiaoling hoped to return to the Ganquan base as soon as possible to join his family.

Because Mao Weifang's reformist faction quietly released the news of the death of the head of state after making relevant preparations, it immediately caused an uproar, and the government was caught off guard, and Yuan Huailiang, who originally wanted to delay the release of the death of the head of state, had to respond in advance.

Due to the sudden death of the great leader, the transfer of many powers was not clear, although the Yuan family urgently determined Yuan Huailiang as the successor of the great leader, but due to the hasty preparations, Yuan Huailiang's ability was not enough to convince the public, so it was not unanimously recognized by the military and political circles. In contrast, although the reformists were also greatly shocked when they learned of Li Kang's arrest, they were much less affected by Mao Weifang's timely briefing and emergency measures.

Taking advantage of the problems in the transfer of power on the part of the government, the reformists made a big fuss about the death of the Führer and secretly spread the news that the Führer's death was caused by the reformists, so as to increase the appeal of the reformists in the military, political circles, and among the people. And Yuan Huailiang was anxious to stabilize the situation after being identified by the family as the successor, and he didn't have much energy to take care of the extermination of the reformists for a while, so the situation was quite passive.

However, Yuan Zhongtian has ruled the Star Continent for many years, and the power of the Yuan family is deep-rooted, although the reformists have taken the opportunity to rise in power, but Li Kang's death is also a big blow, and it is still difficult to shake the dominance of the Yuan family for a while.

After saying goodbye to Mao Weifang that day, Shi Xiaoling drove the head of state's special car straight to the airport, and was not hindered along the way, and by the afternoon of the next day, Shi Xiaoling returned to the Ganquan base smoothly.

Compared with the military and political circles in the capital, which were busy fighting for power and profit, the Ganquan base in the distant border area also quickly learned of the death of the great leader, but it still seemed relatively calm.

As soon as Shi Xiaoling came back, he inquired about Cai Haohua and Tang Zhishu's situation, but fortunately, both of them were safe, and Yuan Huailiang really revoked the monitoring instructions for the two early. What surprised Shi Xiaoling even more was that after his parents and family settled down in the hidden place in the desert, news also came, and Zhuang Li was notified through the relevant personnel of the Yellow Shirt Army.

After Zhuang Li received the news, he informed Shi Xiaoling as soon as possible, and Shi Xiaoling was overjoyed and immediately went to the desert to meet his parents.

Shi Xiaoling's parents and sister-in-law were escorted by Mao Weifang's cronies and went directly to the desert hidden stronghold near the Ganquan base.

After Shi Xiaoling arrived, the whole family was very relieved, and Shi's mother said: "Thanks to the help of Mao Weifang of the Yellow Shirt Army this time, otherwise we would have been arrested by the security bureau." Xiaoling, what happened to you over there, and why did the Great Führer suddenly want to arrest us?"

Shi Xiaoling immediately briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter. When they heard the news that the Great Führer had died, Shi Xiaoling's family was also quite shocked. Father Shi said: "Now that the Great Führer is dead, and the new Führer Yuan Huailiang has also revoked the order to hunt us down, then we don't have to hide in this desert?"
