His voice will be like the dead Tang Zhen, awakening from numbness.
Tang Zhen raised his head slowly and with great difficulty.
Under the moonlight, his face was ashen, his eyes were cloudy, and they had long lost their former sharpness and majesty.
His distracted eyes, struggling to focus, fell on the small, unfamiliar figure not far away.
"...who are you...?"
Tang Zhen's voice was hoarse and dry, like an old bellows, and every word seemed to have been exhausted.
He couldn't recognize Ye Qing, he just felt that the child looked too young and too unfamiliar.
Ye Qing did not answer his question, but looked at him calmly and continued to say in that calm tone:
"It doesn't matter who I am."
"Importantly, I want to ask you a question."
He tilted his head slightly, and his clear eyes seemed to be able to penetrate Tang Zhen's shell of despair and look straight into his heart:
"Sect Master Tang, as the head of the Clear Sky Sect sect, has been in charge of the number one sect in the world for many years..."
"Have you ever wanted to understand, where did you Clear Sky Sect go wrong? And... what stupid things did you do to lead to this disaster today?"
Tang Zhen heard this and his body trembled almost undetectably.
He was silent for a moment, pain, regret, and confusion flashed in his eyes, and finally turned into ashes, and hissed:
"Wrong... The wrong thing is that I shouldn't have... coveted that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast... I shouldn't have let Hao'er grab it..."
This is the most direct and superficial reason.
However, after hearing this answer, Ye Qing shook his head slightly.
"No, you are wrong."
His voice was still calm, but with a thorough understanding of the essence:
"There is nothing wrong with coveting the transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast."
Ye Qing's words stunned Tang Zhen, Tang Xiao and several elders who also raised their heads next to them.
"The transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast is equivalent to the walking Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone. This kind of temptation is irresistible to any Soul Master or any force. If it were me, it would be Spirit Hall, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, or even Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan... If given the opportunity and they think they have the strength, I'm afraid... they will make the same choice as Tang Hao."
Ye Qing's gaze swept across their stunned faces:
"So, what you are really wrong about is not robbing."
"It's because... after the robbery, when Spirit Hall came to the door in person, the evidence was conclusive, and when the army was launched to investigate..."
Ye Qing's voice turned slightly cold:
"Your choice is to resist stubbornly! It is to take chances! It is to try to rely on the Clear Sky Sect's remaining heritage to deal with the people brought by Qian Xunji, and even... you fantasize about being able to repel them!"
"In the end, he connived, or pre-set Tang Hao, and absconded alone with that Soul Beast!"
He looked at Tang Zhen and asked word by word:
"At the beginning, you were just thinking that Qian Daoliu didn't come, only two ordinary Titled Douluos, Qian Xunji and Jugui, plus some Soul Douluo came. In the case of, with the Clear Sky Sect's background and your Tang Zhen's strength, you may be able to hold on, force them back, save Soul Beast, and save your face, right?"
Tang Zhen opened his mouth, unable to refute.
Because what Ye Qing said was exactly their mentality at the time.
"But have you ever thought about a question?"
Ye Qing's tone contained a hint of sarcasm:
"If, I mean if, Qian Xunji really suffered a loss from the Clear Sky Sect at that time, and failed to seek justice, but was repelled by you..."
"What does that mean?"
He asked and answered himself:
"That means that Spirit Hall's face was slapped hard by you Clear Sky Sect again in front of the entire continent! And it was under their control!"
"At that time, guess who will come to the Clear Sky Sect Mountain Gate next time?"
Ye Qing's eyes became sharp:
"Will it just be Qian Xunji and Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo?"
"Don't forget, today's Clear Sky Sect does not have Tang Chen in charge!"
His voice suddenly rose, with a cold questioning:
"Since there is no Peerless Douluo like Tang Chen sitting in charge, where did you Clear Sky Sect get the courage to confront Spirit Hall head-on at a loss? Or even fantasize about repelling them?"
"If it were me, any person in power who has a little bit of brains and knows how to assess the situation..."
Ye Qing's voice regained its calmness, but became even more cruel:
"When Qian Xunji led people to the mountain gate for the first time, and made it clear that the car and horses were going to recover the Soul Beast, he should have handed over the things intact without hesitation! At the same time, Tang Hao Tang Xiao was tied up, and Tang Xiao should be compensated with a heavy gift, and he should sincerely admit his mistake!"
"Because of this matter, you are both unreasonable and not strong enough!"
"Since you are not being reasonable and your strength is inferior to others, what other options do you have besides admitting your defeat and praying for leniency?"
"Resisting stubbornly and taking chances will only push the matter into an even more irreversible abyss! Turning a matter that might have been solved with just compensation and apology into the current situation... a dead end situation where the sect is on the verge of extinction!"
Ye Qing looked at the faces of Tang Zhen and others that became paler and paler due to his words, and even began to show the fear and regret that they realized later, and sighed softly.
"So, you see..."
"You, the so-called leaders of the number one sect in the world, these big shots who stand at the top of power in the mainland..."
Ye Qing's tone contained an undisguised disappointment, even... contempt:
"In my opinion, it's really stupid."
"So stupid that there were countless opportunities to avoid the worst outcome, but because of his ridiculous pride, luck, and wrong judgment of the situation, he pushed himself and his sect step by step into the abyss of eternal destruction."
He raised his head and looked at the cold bright moon in the night sky. His voice was vague, but it also carried a heart-stopping chill:
"To be honest, I'm really disappointed in you."
"With your wisdom and use of power, I even think... I have many ways to make you Douluo Continent's so-called top dignitaries and thousand-year-old families unknowingly fall apart and completely... disappear in the long river of time without losing any blood."
"Not even a splash of water can be made."
As soon as these words came out, not only Clear Sky Sect headed by Tang Hao, but also Sea Dragon Douluo and Qian Xunji who were watching in the dark could not help but fall silent.
Although this sentence sounds arrogant and arrogant, somehow, they actually have the feeling that Ye Qing can do it.
But the question is, how is this possible?
If you wait until Ye Qing grows up, it will be easy.
But if other methods are used, to be honest, they still don't believe it in their hearts.
After all, if it were that easy, Douluo Continent's situation wouldn't be what it is now.
