Your Path Was Wrong from the Start

"The legend of the Human Emperor is widely circulated. Leaving aside past powers, which of us hasn't deliberately sought him out?"

"Who has ever found out, even those long lost to the river of time, all those ancient people—did they all keep such secrets?"

"There are also the legendary Dao Comprehension Tea Tree and Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves, legends I've heard since childhood, but who has ever truly found one that has reached such a level and such height?"

Li Baimei's gaze swept over the crowd:

"Or is it that we didn't fail to find it, but someone is keeping quiet?"

"And then there are the legends of those powerful Emperor Realm. Let's ask ourselves honestly, how many of us have achieved what those legends say?"

Li Baimei wanted to say something more

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the Sword Hall:

"Lu Lulu."

Li Baimei's voice paused, and his expression, which was about to be generous, immediately froze.

The man from the Sword Hall continued:

"Didn't you say that he let you win back then?"

The mention of gossip immediately energized everyone, and they all stared at Li Baimei.

Li Baimei sighed:

"Your Sword Hall's behavior is not endearing."

"Back then, neither Lu Lulu nor I were at the Emperor Realm. Now that he has disappeared without a trace, it's impossible to determine whether he is as powerful as the legendary Emperor Realm."

After a pause, Li Baimei's expression suddenly shifted:

"In other words, if Lu Lulu cannot be found in this world, wouldn't that prove something?"

Everyone fell silent until the old man from the Northern Nether Pavilion sighed and shook his head:

"See? I told you that being exceptionally talented and achieving great things at a young age isn't always a good thing."

"After finding little room for improvement, and with a quick mind, one inevitably becomes prone to rambling and delirious."

The person from the Great Qian Ancient Kingdom nodded and echoed:

"Don't you know that we are now, whether in the eyes of mortals or cultivators, close to gods?"

The man from the Sword Sect glanced at both sides and reminded them:

"We're here to discuss how to deal with the Beast Race, right?"

Li Baimei gently shook her head:

"If you don't believe me, fine, I can't explain these things to you anyway."

"But as I just said, those fabricated things, anything that can help us achieve our goal, my Li Clan is willing to try to complete such a colossal lie."

If people can live within a colossal lie, why can't there be new colossal lies?

He had this idea a long time ago.

However, one tree cannot support a forest.

Now, by leveraging this situation and getting these three parties to cooperate, this matter is clearly much more feasible.

"But these things might fool the younger generation and those who aren't clever, but how could the truly powerful be so easily swayed by you?" the person from the Great Qian Ancient Kingdom asked.

"No one gets up early without a reason; I'm afraid there will be some benefits to be had."

The old man from the Northern Nether Pavilion spoke up, and then asked:

"But who will provide these benefits?"

Li Baimei smiled slightly:

"Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves"

"What?!"

As soon as Li Baimei finished speaking, everyone in the hall changed their expressions.

Even the members of the Li Clan were staring at Li Baimei in disbelief, their faces practically screaming, "How could I have been so unaware of something this big?"

The reactions of the other three parties, however, were more than just shock; they included a host of other emotions.

"Really?"

Where did it come from?

"Let's take a look!"

The three parties spoke up almost simultaneously.

Li Baimei looked at the three sides and shook his head helplessly:

"I thought that some things, having come to this point, would be easy to understand with a little thought, but you clearly didn't even consider it."

As he spoke, Li Baimei raised his hand and waved it.

Suddenly, a green leaf appeared on the table.

Swish, swish, swish.

Everyone's eyes and thoughts rushed to the green leaves.

However, neither visual observation nor spiritual perception revealed anything special about it.

At this moment, the man from the Sword Hall gave Li Baimei a deep look and said:

"Trying to pass off the false as the true?"

A smile appeared on Li Baimei's face:

"It seems you still understand me."

After he finished speaking, more green leaves appeared on the table.

Li Baimei also spoke up:

"Since there are no truly Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves in the world, then anything goes."

As she spoke, Li Baimei picked up a green leaf:

"This is truly Dao Comprehension Tea Leaves."

Pick up another piece:

"That's true too."

Pick up another piece:

"It's true."

"That's the logic, but," the man from the Sword Hall pondered for a moment:

"If it doesn't work, how can you deceive people?"

"Make something that seems complicated, but is actually easy to understand if you have time to think about it. Before you eat it, just show it to them, don't give them time to think about it. If they figure it out after they eat it, then it's effective," Li Baimei said.

"That one can probably only fool the younger generation and fools," Human Dao from the Great Qian Ancient Kingdom.

"Then let's use the excuse that it's a waste for older people to eat there, and not give older people the opportunity. Isn't it always been the case that only younger people are allowed into secret realms and ancient tombs?"

Speaking of the younger generation.

The old man from the Northern Nether Pavilion looked at Li Baimei:

"Whom do you intend to include in this Human Emperor Hall?"

Li Baimei was slightly taken aback and said:

"With the full strength of the Human Race, naturally there are those with real power, the stronger the better, what do you say?"

The old man in the Northern Nether Pavilion suddenly laughed:

"That's not something a naive person would say, someone from a powerful faction would do."

"I know this sounds a bit..."

Before Li Baimei could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the old man from the Northern Nether Pavilion:

No, you have no idea.

"The stronger a person is, the more ambitious they are. Only extreme benefits and advantages can sway them, but even if my Northern Nether Pavilion possessed such things, we would not offer them up."

"You don't need to say anything, you're definitely the same."

"If that's the case, then expecting them to cooperate is simply wishful thinking. To think that they'd put in the effort or even risk their lives based solely on these things is delusional."

The old man spoke with a hint of disdain in his words.

The person from the Great Qian Ancient Kingdom nodded slightly upon hearing this.

Most things in this world cannot be accomplished simply by shouting slogans.

The old man from the Northern Nether Pavilion did not stop, but continued:

"You want to start with the strong, but that path was doomed to fail from the start."

"The key to this success lies with the younger generation."

"The younger generation believes in legends and stories; they are the easiest to deceive and the most readily manipulated. The same effort will have the greatest effect on them."

"Tell them your colossal lie, let them believe it, let them act on it, let them gain glory, and let them fall into its clutches."

"When those powerful elders have spent so much effort and energy nurturing their juniors, only to see them perish under the claws of the Beast Race, can they really remain indifferent and stand idly by?"

"Given their strength, they're wiping out the Beast Race on a large scale. Do you think the four Sacred Beast Race can just stand by and do nothing?"

The old man paused, then shook his head:

"They can't do it. Even if some humans and beasts could, there would always be many more humans and beasts who couldn't."

"Stories can only deceive, and profits can only lure."

Only hatred can spread like wildfire, engulfing all corners of the land.
