"If you really have Zhu Yong announce the abolishment of the nation's name and the imperial system, you will be making life and death enemies with all the [Alchemists]. You will be facing the emperors of the Longevity Heavenly Dynasty who have reigned for more than two thousand years... Think it through carefully. Such pressure, not to mention you, even if your Master, Duobao True Monarch, were here, it would be an outcome of death and Dao annihilation."
