"This world has many evil people, but it's not lacking in good people either. I agree with him killing the evil people. After all, I'm not a purely good person, much less someone with an overflowing sense of compassion. It's just that he wants to destroy everything now."
What about the kind-hearted person?
"What about those newborn babies who have done so many good deeds and are still so clueless?"
"They've only lived a short life, and yet they're being told the world is going to end, and humanity is going to perish."
Tell me, did he do the right thing?
Su Xian's tone was somewhat somber. He wasn't just questioning Li Chen... really a good thing?
This world has so many different people, and none of them can represent evil, but isn't what Li Chen is doing now evil?
Ultimately, they see things from different perspectives, but they live in the same world. Su Xian wants to protect Human Race because there are many people who shouldn't die, and cannot die.
Disaster grinned and said, "You think our My Lord is wrong, but have you ever thought about why he became like this?"
"Even evil people are transformed from good people."
"I used to wonder why I was imprisoned for Sinful Pass just because of my abilities. Later, I gradually realized that this world is a dog-eat-dog world, and only those with strength can make the rules."
"You're wrong when you think there are good people in the world."
Su Xian fell silent... Why was he talking to this madman? Their positions were different, so they weren't considering the same reasons; they were only seeing the world from their own experiences.
The magic circle rotated more and more intensely.
The body of the calamity was dissipating, but the smile on his face grew ever stronger as he chanted, "To pave the way for my My Lord, death is inevitable, but I will not live to see the moment the world is destroyed."
"When I was just a student, I was awakened by this damned Plague. My mistake caused serious consequences for human society, and I was deprived of my freedom for life."
"If I had never possessed this power... no... it was fate. If it weren't for the Plague, I wouldn't have seen my My Lord, I wouldn't have seen the only man in the world who filled me with fear."
For a moment, Zai froze, then burst into maniacal laughter. "Hahaha, I am immortal!"
"Lust, I understand."
"I see!!"
As his voice grew fainter and fainter, it gradually faded away. Su Xian stared at the scorched earth on the ground, cold sweat pouring down her back. What did this guy mean by his last words?
Immortal?
Could this be a fake of his?
Even if it's a fake body now, he's already died once, and even if he's resurrected, he can't possibly appear here again. Su Xian breathed a sigh of relief and looked towards the battlefield.
While it may seem that Mu Hen is leading the Tomb People Legion to crush everything in their path, Su Xian understands that a storm could come at any moment, and the next one might not be Calamity Realm, but a Wasteland Realm expert.
Seeing Mu Hen leading the Tomb People further and further away, Su Xian moved her hand and activated a communication array.
"Mu Hen, step back."
"Don't waste your troops..."
Not far away, Mu Hen held the Soul Chain in his hand, pondered for a few seconds, and then chose to retreat. Although his cultivation level was higher than Su Xian's, his head was still a serious injury, so it was better to listen to advice and retreat.
But the Eerie Monsters saw the Tomb People's Legion retreat.
They resumed their fierce attack.
Su Xian frowned and remained silent. The most troublesome thing about the Eerie Tide was that there were many monsters, which were difficult to clear out. Moreover, as soon as one batch was killed, another batch would come. Unless the source could be found.
But the world now universally acknowledges that the source is Li Chen.
His death will end this Eerie Tide, but it's not the end; it's only temporary.
"I wonder how things are going in Magic City, which Su Zhe manages. I hope we don't get any bad news."
At this moment, the Ruined Pass was calmer than any other pass.
The Eerie Tide didn't attack either, seemingly ignoring this place.
Yu Qingnian and Gu Cheng stood on the pass, staring at the Black Mist as if trying to see through it. They both noticed something was wrong; other passes had been attacked by the Eerie Tides, but why hadn't the Ruined Pass been?
Could it be that Li Chen is still thinking about their past relationship?
Shouldn't it be that Gu Cheng owes Li Chen a favor?
This is something Gu Cheng just can't understand.
"Qingnian, do you think it's because that kid Li Chen saw how well I treated him back then, so he..." Before Gu Cheng could finish speaking...
Yu Qingnian added, "No, Li Chen's determination is stronger than anyone else's right now. Whether he is fighting against himself or against the Human Race, we don't know."
"But we will absolutely not fail to attack your pass."
"After all, the Four Great Passes for Human Race are extremely important. Everyone understands this, do you think he wouldn't know?"
Gu Cheng nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "Could it be that he's trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
"To send you strongmen away, so we can break through inland directly?"
Yu Qingnian remained silent. It was possible, but unlikely. After all, Li Chen had now entered the Wasteland Realm and was almost unafraid of these Supreme Beings. Unless they could join forces to kill him, but these Supreme Beings had deliberately let Li Chen go before, so they naturally had other opinions about Li Chen.
Gu Cheng frowned and said, "Qing Nian, what exactly are you thinking?"
"You must understand that Li Chen is now a great enemy of the Human Race. Even if he was once your student, you cannot show him any mercy!"
"This is a moment of life and death for Human Race!"
Yu Qingnian shook his head and said, "Of course I care about the Human Race, but if you knew the outcome, and there was only one path to take, would you still have the opportunity to choose?"
"You know I don't like doing things I'm not sure about, but now there's no other way but to gamble."
"Last time I gambled, I lost my family; this time, it's the whole world..."
Yu Qingnian took out the familiar, headless, glittering golden statue from his pocket. It had been repaired, and the head on it now resembled that of a man who looked very much like Yu Qingnian.
The Gu Cheng stared at the statue for a long time without saying a word.
Yu Qingnian continued with a sigh, "I've regretted that one word, 'gambling,' for many years. I should have been more forceful in stopping him back then, but it was too late."
"Being late can't be made up for. If I had a second chance, I would never let him go to Dawn Pass."
"Now you're making me gamble again... then I can only gamble that Li Chen can ascend to godhood."
The Gu Cheng gazed into the distance and said, "What if we bet wrong?"
Yu Qingnian smiled calmly, placed the statue in his hand on the ground, and looked at the Black Mist.
"Then let's continue our destiny in the next life."
P. S.: Actually, a space-themed story could be written. I'm asking for your opinions now, since there are still many things left to explore, such as the Old Gods, the Gods, and so on. I'm also thinking about it. After all, the world-building has already been established, but what follows will only be a world of despair, because you know about Cthulhu...
