Chapter 160
"She wanted to convey a few words through me. She once had a cousin who was coerced. The cousin tried to resist, but the stubborn mindset and attitude of her family and friends around her made her afraid to take that step, which led her to end her own life at a young age.""After that, she realized that for girls of your era, the greatest support can only come from yourselves, and only yourselves."
"If you can't take the first step to break free from your shackles, then the future you see in the livestreams will never be realized."
"The gender equality and status of women in the future may well have been fought for by those women you mock, belittle, and consider shameless for being in the public eye! They were never disgraceful; they are heroes."
"You are not alone in this world fighting a lone battle. In other places, there must also be brave women struggling against the world, and there is always a place that welcomes women to join!"
"Perhaps one person's struggle is small, but if everyone can change a little, the shackles placed on women will surely be broken!"
Boom!
Gu Sang's words were like a thunderous explosion, reverberating in the hearts of every woman from ancient times, taking root and sprouting in their minds.
One person's struggle may be small, but what about thousands and millions of women combined?
Those who bravely stand up are worthy of respect!
Because they are risking everything, staking it all for a chance at justice!
"Bang!"
A woman with tears streaming down her face fell to her knees in Gu Sang's direction.
"Divine Lady, thank you for setting an example for all of us women, and for awakening us! It turns out these shackles were put on by ourselves."
"I've been harassed by a man from my village, but I didn't dare report it to the authorities or speak out. I could only torment myself day and night."
"Divine Lady, you have guided us. I've decided to report it to the authorities!"
"Before, I was afraid of rumors, but now I know that in other places, there are women as brave as I am!"
"Suddenly, I have the courage to face all kinds of accusations against me."
"I didn't seduce anyone, I didn't behave improperly, it's not my fault, I did nothing wrong. Even if I end up battered and bloodied, I will prove myself!"
Gu Sang's thoughts stirred, and the System automatically adjusted to the area where this woman was located.
Many people appeared on the screen before her.
Gu Sang saw the looks on the faces of the people around the woman - some puzzled, some contemptuous, some sympathetic.
Although they didn't verbally attack her, those gazes were like sharp arrows piercing the woman.
It really hurt the person involved, so much.
A cold look flashed across Gu Sang's face as she spoke icily, "Don't mock those braver than you, because the light they fight for with their lives will illuminate you too!"
"You may not dare, you may not agree, you may be afraid, but please respect them and keep quiet!"
"I said it before, she is using her future and destiny to do earth-shattering things. Her courage should be our pride, not our shame!"
Indeed.
Those hurtful words from earlier had already taken effect.
Now that it was pointed out so bluntly again, the women from ancient times suddenly felt a sense of shame. They felt their blood pulsing wildly in their temples, as if something was about to burst out of their heads.
At this moment, they understood!
They were used to standing by and mocking those who were stubborn, but they had forgotten that those stubborn people were fighting for their interests too!
It wasn't just women fighting for their interests, but also the poor who had no access to justice, those considered lowly and troublesome by the imperial court.
What right did they have to mock others?
Were they mocking others for being braver than themselves?
Or were they mocking themselves for not seeing the situation clearly? If it weren't for someone standing up to resist, the blade of reality would have already cut them all down!
This world needs some brave and persistent people.
They had no right to mock anyone who was persistent and stubborn.
Because they didn't dare!
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"......"
One after another, more and more people fell to their knees before Gu Sang.
This kneeling wasn't for the Divine Lady's status!
It was a sincere kneeling, as the Divine Lady had taught them some truths through the livestream.
"Thank you, Divine Lady, for pointing out how terribly wrong I was."
"Divine Lady, please rest assured, from now on when we encounter such things, we will definitely help. You're right, these matters are closely related to us, we shouldn't mock brave people."
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Some people didn't speak, they just sincerely kowtowed three times to Gu Sang.
In New City, where the woman was located.
A woman about the same age as her, with a conflicted expression, finally mustered up the courage. She took a deep breath and stepped forward to say to the woman:
"Sister, I'll go with you to report to the authorities. If anyone dares to mock you, I'll scold them for you."
"I'll stay with you. At worst, we'll bear the rumors together!"
The women around them all reddened their eyes at this sight.
Once the first person steps up, the second person becomes braver.
Women volunteered one after another, warmly saying, "I'll go with you too. There's strength in numbers."
"The Divine Lady is right. You're so brave, we shouldn't mock you. I'm a real man, and as a man, I respect your courage! Come on, let's all go together."
"Good! If anyone dares to mock, I'll teach them how to be a proper person."
"Let the one who harassed you pay the price!"
Seeing the ancient people's thoughts gradually changing, she had livestreamed so many times and changed so many people. All these changes filled Gu Sang with emotion.
At first, her mindset was indeed just to complete the task.
But now, watching the women change step by step, using all their strength to seek redemption, she suddenly felt it had become meaningful.
Just as she was about to close the video, the girl who had connected with her earlier appeared on the screen.
The girl smiled at her, "Divine Lady, thank you! If my cousin's spirit is in heaven, she would be very happy to see so many people changed because of her story."
Gu Sang saw she was dressed in men's clothing, carrying a backpack. Gu Sang spoke to wish her well: "Have a safe journey!"
"Ding!"
"The livestream room's merit has reached fifteen million!"
"Achievement reward unlocked. Please make your selection."
As soon as Gu Sang ended her livestream, she received a message from the System.
The source of this is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.
Initially, she didn't have much of an emotional reaction to the increase in her merit points.
That is, until—
Two options suddenly appeared before her.
"Option One: Ancient Day Trip. You may bring three modern items back to ancient times. Each day spent there will deduct 100,000 merit points. You will automatically return to the present when time is up."
Gu Sang's typically calm and composed heart suddenly began to race wildly!!
