Chapter 1977 Revenge (1)

Chapter 1977 Revenge (1)

"If I hadn't heard it from you and experienced it myself, I wouldn't believe it in the slightest," the old man spoke emotionally upon hearing the entire story from Li Zong. "Who would have thought such a magical thing existed?"

Li Zong sighed softly. "I was just as dumbfounded when I first heard about it. It's difficult to accept, but the reality is staring us in the face. Otherwise, Zhu Tianlong wouldn't be getting toyed with like this."

"So, this little girl is Yun Lintian's friend?" the old man inquired.

"Without a doubt," Li Zong confirmed with a nod.

"No wonder..." the old man sighed.

Nantian Fengyu's actions weren't without flaws. However, most people overlooked them, focusing on the bigger picture.

The old man initially noticed something strange but couldn't pinpoint it. Now, everything was explained.

"Did he tell you what he plans to do next?" the old man asked seriously.

Li Zong shook his head. "He did tell me something, but I believe he would never harm the country. What happened today is what we owed him."

The old man nodded slowly. They both knew that Yun Lintian must be disappointed with the nation after everything he and his team had done for them. Today, the nation would certainly lose face, but it was deserved.

"I'm glad he showed us mercy," the old man sighed. "It seems I am getting old. I haven't handled internal matters well."

"No, sir. You've done everything you could," Li Zong said solemnly. "After all, a person's energy has its limits. It's impossible to take care of everything perfectly."

"There's no need to comfort me," the old man smiled. "Now, tell me what he said."

Li Zong nodded and said, "There are two things. First, he said he intends to address the world's environment. Global warming will be eliminated, and deserts will slowly recover within ten years."

The old man was surprised. His mind raced, considering the many possibilities. If the world's environment recovered, it would cause both significant positive and negative impacts on humanity. He needed to develop a proper plan to handle the situation.

"Second," Li Zong continued, "he will eliminate human trafficking around the world. He wants us to handle the aftermath."

"That's excellent," the old man smiled. Human trafficking was a significant problem that had plagued every nation in the world for ages.

"After this, we need to devise a better way to prevent it from happening again," the old man furrowed his brow.

After adjusting to his physical transformation, the old man addressed Yun Lintian. "I failed you, yet you haven't shown anger. Furthermore, you bestowed upon me a gift I can never repay. Honestly, I feel ashamed."

Yun Lintian smiled faintly. "I understand your difficulties, senior. While I wouldn't call myself patriotic, I do consider myself a citizen of this nation. I truly wish for everyone to live a good life, not just here, but everyone in the world."

"On behalf of everyone, I thank you," the old man said with gratitude.

"However, once the world recovers, a new wave of war is inevitable," he continued. "To be honest, I have no solution. It is impossible to avoid a conflict forever."

"There is no ideal solution," Yun Lintian said calmly. "While I could eliminate the world's elites, it would only be a matter of time before someone replaced them."

"What I can do is address major problems like world hunger. The land will become fertile globally, particularly in Africa. I will ensure sufficient water sources, allowing them to become the world's breadbasket. Of course, proper management is required."

The old man and Li Zong both nodded slowly in agreement.

"Europe won't let such a delicious opportunity in Africa pass them by," Lynn interjected. "The continent has been exploited for centuries."

Yun Lintian shrugged. "This is where I draw the line. I don't intend to interfere any further."

"Let's look at the bright side," the old man said. "At least people in Africa won't face hunger anymore. We've been investing heavily there for years. We'll do our best to implement a comprehensive agricultural system. Their success ultimately depends on their own efforts."

Lynn remained silent, accepting the old man's words.

"Actually," Yun Lintian said, turning towards the old man, "I'd like a piece of land. I'm thinking of building an orphanage."

"Certainly," the old man readily agreed. "Choose the land that suits you and let me know later."

He was aware that Yun Lintian could simply claim the land, but Yun Lintian's courtesy in informing him was appreciated.

"Thank you," Yun Lintian smiled.

Li Zong suddenly asked, "What do you plan for the Zhu family?"

"Do you have any suggestions?" Yun Lintian countered.

"No," the old man interjected. "It's your decision. We have no say in the matter. You deserve whatever you choose to do."
