Sima You thought for a long time before continuing. Originally, the man had great admiration for Lord Ling Emperor. After all, Lord Ling Emperor was able to single-handedly change Lingdu Continent from a primitive jungle world into an orderly and civilized world. This is definitely a great achievement. For a man, he once thought that if he was extremely powerful, he would definitely do the same thing. However, after all, he just thought about it, and Lord Lingdi actually realized his ideal.
Although the man didn't know Lord Ling Emperor, in his imagination, Lord Ling Emperor must be a very wise and great person, and she would never make such a huge mistake. This should be because the people below took advantage of Lord Ling Emperor's daily routine. At that time, Lord Ling Emperor was deceived, so that something happened that shouldn't have happened. Therefore, the man thought that as long as he could get close to Lord Ling Emperor and tell the truth, Lord Ling Emperor would definitely set things right, rescue those innocent monsters who were being slaughtered, and let those bad guys be punished accordingly, so that those innocent people who died tragically would be saved. The demon clan was liberated and could rest in peace.
The man relied on his own abilities and worked hard to infiltrate the inspection agency. Then, according to Lord Lingdi's itinerary, he went to the place where she might appear and became a defense team member for the local inspection. The hard work was worth it, and the man finally got the chance to get close to Lord Ling Emperor.
On this day, after Lord Lingdi inspected the work of the local inspection agency, he was arranged to rest in the safest manor in the city, and the man was one of the guards of the manor. Of course, the man would not let go of such a good opportunity. Taking advantage of his guarding time, he sneaked into the room where Lord Ling Emperor was resting.
At that time, Lord Lingdi was sitting cross-legged in meditation when she noticed that the man had broken into her room, but did not disturb the others. This was also a sign of her boldness as a skilled artist. In fact, in these years, it is not that there are no masters who want to assassinate Lord Ling Emperor. Unfortunately, no matter how strong the master is, no one can succeed, and no one can even hurt Lord Ling Emperor. Perhaps, because of this, when Lord Ling Emperor found a person in the late stage of the Tribulation and broke into her room, she would not feel any threat at all.
In fact, although the man's actions were sneaky, Lord Lingdi could feel that this guy probably didn't want to assassinate him, he felt more like a star-chasing fan. Therefore, when the man appeared in front of Lord Ling Emperor, the extremely excited expression on this young-looking cultivator's face had already explained his purpose.
After some exchanges, Lord Lingdi gave some words of encouragement, hoping that the man could study and work harder and strive to make some contribution to the spiritual world. Under normal circumstances, after Lord Ling Emperor made this statement, the visitor should have known what he meant and quickly left, allowing Lord Ling Emperor to rest. However, the man did not do this, but seemed a little anxious.
"Is there anything else?" Lord Lingdi asked.
"Lord Emperor Ling, in fact, I didn't come to this city specifically to see you, not to chase stars." The man replied.
"Oh, so you're not the guard here?" Lord Lingdi realized something was wrong.
"Yes, I pretended to be a patrol member here and sneaked in. However, I didn't want to be harmful to you. I have something very important and I want to inform you." The man quickly explained that he was also afraid. Lord Lingdi would take him down without any explanation.
"Hmph, under normal circumstances, I shouldn't listen to you anymore. You have violated the rules of the spiritual world by doing this. However, I think that since you are relatively young and have not made a big mistake, I will give it to you. Give me a chance to explain. However, after you finish speaking, you must accept the punishment. The rules are the rules and must not be broken. Even I have to abide by them." Lord Lingdi's face was very serious. It can be seen that she paid great attention to it. Matter of principle.
"No problem, as long as I can finish what I said, I will be willing to punish me in any way." The man was overjoyed.
Now that he had the approval of the Spirit Emperor, the man quickly told the truth about the expansion of the war against the demon clan. The meaning was that many innocent demon clans were exterminated because of this. This was wrong. It was a huge disruption to the new order established by the Emperor. At that time, among the new rules of the New Order, the most critical one was that innocents could not be killed indiscriminately, but in this war against the demon clan, too many innocent people died.
Originally, the man thought that after what he said, Lord Ling Emperor would be very shocked, and he might issue an order immediately to start investigating the matter, arrest those wanton warmongers, and punish them with the most severe criminal law. However, after the man finished speaking, he saw Lord Ling Emperor deep in thought on the side, with no expression on his face. It gave the man the feeling that he had not heard his words clearly at all.
The man was anxious and quickly continued: "Lord Ling Emperor, I fought on the front line and saw many innocent monsters. They didn't even make any resistance, and they were killed by us in batches, and their The demon elixir was taken away by us. This is no longer a war. This is simply massacre and robbery. We cultivators are the robbers who broke into their territory. Not only did we take away their homes, but we even took away their demon elixir. As a weapon of war, this kind of behavior is really outrageous. If we just let it go, how can we talk about a new order and new rules? How is all this different from before? It's just that it has never been disorderly. The chaotic fighting turned into an orderly massacre."
Because the man was anxious, the words he spoke became more and more unpleasant to the ears, and he even began to question the new order established by Lord Ling Emperor. Perhaps it was because the man spoke too seriously that Lord Ling Emperor's expression finally changed. However, the man could see that her face looked a little lonely and regretful.
The man's heart thumped, and he thought to himself, "It's not good. The expression on Lord Ling Emperor's face didn't show the feeling of being kept in the dark. It felt like she knew all this." Sure enough, Lord Lingdi quickly returned to a normal expression, and then said to the man: "I understand, I will order an investigation."
After the man heard the understatement of Lord Ling Emperor, he knew that his guess was true. It turned out that the culprit of all this was actually Lord Ling Emperor, his idol. The man's expression slowly began to change, from anxious at first, to shock, then to confusion, and finally his face was full of resentment.
"Haha, I see, I'm really ridiculous. Who is the Spirit Emperor? She is the number one person in the spirit world. She has mastered the most powerful time technique in the world. How could anyone in this world be able to deceive her? I see. , So that’s it, I actually ran in front of the murderer to cry out for injustice, this is really ridiculous.” The man murmured to himself.
Lord Ling Emperor was also very open-minded. If it were anyone else, he would have been angry a long time ago, but she had always maintained a relatively calm attitude. After sighing, she started the discussion with the man.
Lord Lingdi seemed to regard the man as someone to confide in and expressed her anxiety. It turns out that although she established a new order with her strong personal strength, maintaining this new order is not something she can do alone. At this time, her powerful strength has lost its effect. She cannot kill people just because they don't listen to her. If this continues, killing will stop killing, and there will be no new order in the spiritual world. In order for the new order to be implemented smoothly, Lord Ling Emperor must put away his own strength and reconcile the contradictions between various forces so that everyone can unite into one force to issue and implement the new rules. Only in this way can Lingdu Continent Towards civilization.
The man could also sympathize with Lord Ling Emperor's explanation. After all, the Lingdu Continent was full of battlefields in the past, and all the major forces were fighting in a melee. It is already a miracle that Lord Ling Emperor can make these forces put aside their disputes and integrate together to form a society that is at least relatively harmonious and stable on the surface. However, the man believed that he could understand the difficulties of Lord Ling Emperor, but no matter what, he could not let innocent people become victims. Besides, he did not understand why the butcher's knife was extended to the demon clan.
Lord Lingdi also smiled bitterly and explained: "The new order cannot be established in a day. In fact, I know that many forces are not convinced and are constantly making small moves in private. If I let it go, I will eventually It’s just that I give up, or that I can’t bear it any longer and go on a killing spree. No matter what I choose to do, the new order will eventually collapse and cultivators will have no future.”
The man's mind was spinning very quickly. After thinking about it carefully, he blurted out: "Is it to drive away wolves and swallow tigers?"
Lord Lingdi looked at the man with a surprised look and continued: "That's right, at the beginning, when I saw the Fang Clan causing trouble, I sent out those unconvinced cultivators. What I originally thought was , so that they can both lose, it would be better if they all died. Unfortunately, things went counterproductive. Some things are not something you can take for granted. As a result, these forces were not stupid, and they actually formed an alliance with the Fang Clan, planning to Let’s deal with the New Order together. What do you think we should do at this time?”
"I think we should search for evidence and then accuse them," the man replied.
"Haha, you are so naive. If they don't take action, we won't have evidence. But once they do, so what if we have evidence." There was a hint of sarcasm in the corner of Lord Ling Emperor's mouth.
The man was speechless. Needless to say, Lord Lingdi chose another approach. Sure enough, as Lord Ling Emperor narrated, the man realized that Lord Ling Emperor did not wait passively, but personally killed the clan leader of the Fang Clan. This caused the alliance between the cultivators and the Fang Clan to fall apart immediately. Eventually a scuffle broke out. Unfortunately, the development of things is always unexpected. The so-called out-of-control situation is the pain in the heart of Lord Ling Emperor now.
Those demon races that had a good relationship with the Fang tribe began to gather together, which made the war get bigger and bigger. After those unconvinced cultivator forces were killed, other cultivator forces could not survive alone and were also affected by the war. . Once the war breaks out, it is impossible for anyone to stop in time, especially when one's own power has been seriously damaged. Even if the Ling Emperor loudly wants to stop it, it will be of no avail.
The Ling Emperor, who lost control of the war, had no choice but to take action in time and integrate the power of the cultivators. This allowed the cultivators to regain the upper hand. However, at this time, the war counterattack horn had already sounded, and it was not the Ling Emperor who could stop it. of. Especially those forces that have been damaged have long been red-blooded. At this stage, in addition to revenge, they have also discovered that they can get great benefits from killing the demon clan. Now, they can no longer stop the pace of the war. .
Burning, killing and looting were originally a by-product of war. At this time, Lord Lingdi discovered that some forces even killed each other due to uneven distribution of spoils. In order to prevent the war from escalating further, Lord Lingdi had no choice but to change his strategy, completely separating the cultivators from the demon clan, and requiring the cultivators' forces to never attack each other.
