As Aasif (Parker) knelt before the old man, he realized that this figure possessed immense supernatural powers and was also a Han. Without a moment’s hesitation, he fell to the ground, choking back his emotions as he pleaded, “Old god, our Han people are suffering under the invasion of the Tatars. Ournd is in ruins, and we are in despair. It’s said that the younger generationcks the strength to resist the Qing Dynasty, leaving us helpless as our nation continues to decline. Since you, old god, are one of us, I implore you to take action, drive away the Qing dogs, and restore the Han Dynasty!” Sara,ing to her senses, quickly followed suit.


    She knelt down and bowed her head respectfully, adding, “I beseech you, old god, to intervene!”


    Meng Changsheng (Willie the 1st) was momentarily taken aback by their fervent actions. Then, with a mockingugh, he replied, “I have been in seclusion here for centuries. What do I care for the affairs of the world outside? The distinction between a Han emperor, a Mongolian emperor, or a Manchu emperor has long since lost its significance to me.”


    Aasif (Parker) and Sara felt a wave of despair wash over them.


    They had believed that with the old god’s ability to effortlessly vanquish hundreds of Qing soldiers with a mere gesture, it would be simple for him to march to Yanjing Imperial City and im Shunzhi’s head.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    However, they had overestimated Meng Changsheng’s (Willie the 1st) sense of loyalty to the Han. In truth, at his advanced age, he had long forgotten the ideals of national justice and integrity.


    With an indifferent expression, he stated, “This is my sanctuary for seclusion and cultivation. You should not disturb my practice here. I have already dealt with the Qing soldiers pursuing you, so you may leave.”


    Aasif (Parker), still on his knees, urged, “Old immortal, if you could drive the Qing dogs from our borders and save the people, it would be a tremendous act of merit, greatly benefiting your cultivation. This task should be simple for you, so I implore you to reconsider!”


    Meng Changsheng (Willie the 1st) responded dismissively, “Merit? What is merit but a hollow concept? Does umting merit grant you immortality?”


    Aasif (Parker) was taken aback. The notion of longevity was foreign to him, and he struggled to grasp the deeper meaning behind those words.


    Noticing his bewilderment, Meng Changsheng (Willie the 1st) continued calmly, “Do not assume I am the only one with such strength. Anyone who ascends to the throne possesses the rightbination of time, ce, people, and harmony. The Manchu Emperor’s ability to invade the Pass and seize the Han Dynasty’s imperial city proves that his fate, the dragon vein of his n, and the destiny of the Manchu Qing Dynasty currently outweigh those of the Han. He undoubtedly has formidable support.” After a brief pause, Meng Changsheng (Willie the 1st) added, “I advise you not to overreach. With your limited abilities, it is nearly impossible to challenge a nation that is on the rise.”


    Upon hearing this, Aasif (Parker) felt a deep sense of despair.


    He shook his head, his voice resolute yet tinged with tragedy, “Even if I, Aasif (Parker), cannot aid the Han Dynasty, I will fight against the Qing until myst breath! The Qing may number only a million, yet they upy most of China’snd. If every Chinese person remains indifferent, the Han will never reim their territory!”


    Meng Changsheng (Willie the 1st) smiled softly and remarked, “Your ideals and ambitions stem from youth. If you were to live as long as I have, would it truly matter who sits upon the throne, whether it be the Tatars or the Han?”


    Seeing his indifference, Sara quickly interjected, “Old god, the Qing army is advancing south with great force and has already begun its attacks. Once they reach Huguang, they will soon enter the Hundred Thousand Mountains. After crossing those mountains, they willy im to Southern Yunnan. If they secure Southern Yunnan, China will face total subjugation. Then, not only will you lose this preciousnd for your cultivation, but you may also find it impossible to locate any safe haven across the entire Central ins!”


    Meng Changsheng (Willie the 1st) couldn’t help but frown at her words.<fn2ef8> Read full story at Find_Novel(.</fn2ef8>
