I really really want to know what the Chinese censors thought about this chapter.
The story is about poor peasants rising up against the wealthy elites, warlords, and corruption. Which is similar to the moto or purpose of the Chinese communist revolution. However, you might also say that the modern communist party faces the same problem with elitists, corruption, and wealth gap (but these problems could be anywhere else in the modern world too, but the author is using a Chinese setting). So as a reader, I could interpret this whole manhua as going either way of either supporting or criticizing modern China.
