Chapter 1629: A Mixed Bag
“So...”
ng Chao thought of the words that Shen Yuanbao had uttered. “...from a certain point of view, the Azure Alliance is really just a motley crew?”
“It’s not a motley crew, but there are indeed people from all walks of life.”
Ai Lei said, “In fact, the Azure Alliance is nothing more than a collective of all the people in Dragon City who oppose the nine ga corporations, the nine noble families of cultivation, and the Deity Realm warriors behind them.
“As for why they’re going against the nine great families, there are all kinds of strange things.
“So are ordinary people. They oppose the great families because their wives have run away with the superhumans from the great families, or they have always been single and have never found a wife. All the won despise them, and these n bla it on the existence of the superhumans from the great families. They’ve beco radical and cynical. Not only do they hate the superhumans from the great families, but they even hate the opposite sex!”
“I’ve heard of such people too.”
ng Chao nodded thoughtfully. “However, there are a lot of them. Do they have a lot of influence?”
.....
“A lot, a lot.”
Ai Lei said, “The truth is, as an ordinary person in Dragon City today, it’s not easy for them to find a regular partner, even start a family, and have their own descendants. Many people would rather beco the lover of a superhuman from a noble family, or perhaps not even lovers. It doesn’t matter if it’s just a montary spring fling. They don’t want to be with ordinary people and grow old together.
“Thinking about it carefully, it does make sense.
“Marriage doesn’t only involve feelings but also economic factors, after all. There’s no need to ntion the benefits of being the lover of a wealthy family’s superhuman. Even if it’s just one mont together, there’s still a certain chance that one can obtain the genetic seed of a wealthy family’s superhuman. Hence, their child might stand a chance to beco one of the wealthy family mbers.
“If the family turns hostile and refuses to acknowledge him, this child at least has the extraordinary blood of a superhuman from a wealthy family. There will be a greater chance for him to awaken his extraordinary power. Not only will he be able to rise above others, but he will at least have the ability to survive in this cruel world where danger lurks everywhere.
“Marrying an ordinary person and giving birth to a few ordinary people can only be the most basic, most boring, and least profitable job with the weakest sense of dignity. If a crisis cos, such as a beast tide erupting again or a war with the natives from the Other World, there will be no way for a child to protect himself at all. He can only curl up behind a superhuman and scream. If he’s not careful, he’ll be eaten by a monster. Tell , which mother would be willing to let her child end up like that?
“Instead of painstakingly raising them for more than ten to twenty years, only for them to be eaten by a monster in one bite, it’s better not to give birth in the first place.
“Since they’ve made up their minds to not give birth than give birth to an ordinary person, then what’s the point of getting married? What’s the point of dating?
“Therefore, there are more and more singles in Dragon City now.
“Among them, those who are ‘forced to be bachelors,’ see the beautiful won embrace the superhumans. They have s*x every night, and the superhumans end up having hundreds of offspring. The bachelors inevitably lose their balance and beco the most radical opponents.
“As for the voices on the Internet, you also know that the more extre they are, the more marketable they will be.
“Senior, please have a look. It’s like this comnt, ‘The superhumans have taken our money and won. We want to take back the money and won!’
“This comnt is so simple and crude, but I’ve seen it under at least a hundred accounts. From these comnts, we can see that many ordinary people feel this way.”
ng Chao was silent for a long ti before he shook his head and said, “How did Dragon City beco like this? I rember that it wasn’t like this decades ago. At that ti, ordinary people were still willing to marry ordinary people and have children.”
“At that ti, people had just arrived in a supernatural world. They still hadn’t figured out what supernatural power ant.”
Ai Lei shrugged. “Now, everyone is gradually figuring it out.”
“What about you?”
ng Chao asked, “You don’t want to marry and have children with ordinary people either?”
“Of course.”
Ai Lei did not hesitate, “In this cruel world where the strong prey on the weak and the winner takes all, the combination of ordinary and ordinary is the greatest tragedy. It’s even a cri against the children. My ordinary children will hate for the rest of their lives.”
“Alright.”
ng Chao sighed. “Continue. Who else is there in the Azure Alliance?”
“There are a lot of them.”
Ai Lei said, “A large portion of them are superhumans from humble families. They relied on their perseverance and luck of surviving hundreds of battles to stumble and awaken their extraordinary powers. However, many paid a huge price. Their bodies, which were damaged from all kinds of internal injuries, were born with a low upper limit. In addition, they don’t have sufficient cultivation resources. It’s very difficult for them to cultivate to the highest realm like the superhumans from wealthy families, who can move mountains and overturn seas. The vast majority of people will never be able to cross the threshold of the Heaven Realm in their lifeti. They can only remain as third-class fighters.
“Such low-level to mid-level superhumans naturally stand on the side opposing the nine great families...
“No, not just the nine great families. To be more precise, they are actually standing on the side opposing all the peerless fighters. They’re trying to curb the authority of the peerless fighters and increase the role and status of the low-level to mid-level superhumans.
“There’s also a portion of people, who were originally employees of the nine ga corporations. However, because they were treated as fuel during the process of the companies’ rapid advancent, they were burned to the ground. By the ti they reached middle age, their cultivation potential was completely exhausted. Since they had risked their lives all year round, they were riddled with injuries. However, the cost of treatnt beca increasingly high. After that, they were kicked out of the door by the ga corporations. From then on, they ca to a sudden realization. Their stance underwent a hundred-and-eighty-degree change, and they beca the ga corporations’ most determined opponents.
“So of them were mbers of the nine noble families of cultivation, but they struggled in the family. They decided to join the Azure Alliance and ‘take back what was rightfully theirs’ with the advantage of numbers. Among them, the most typical example is Lu Siya, who betrayed the Lu family and Sky Pillar Corporation.
“There are others who are small and dium-sized business owners who started from scratch. However, after the scale of their business gradually grew, they realized that the nine mountains surrounding them were standing in their way. If they didn’t move the nine mountains, their business would be like ‘raising a b*stard in a jar.’ No matter how they raised him, he wouldn’t be able to grow up.
“Their motto is ‘when a whale falls, all living things co to life.’ The developnt of the nine ga corporations to this day has severely hindered Dragon City’s developnt. Only when the nine ga corporations wither away one after another can Dragon City usher in true spring. Then, hundreds of flowers will bloom.
“You see, Senior, I’ve just been talking about it casually, but I’ve found so many factions of different origins and positions in the Azure Alliance. It’s truly tough to find the ‘greatest common denominator’ among the countless noisy appeals, opinions, and shouting.”
