At that time, none of the Realm Lords knew if Mu Tai's idea would succeed. In addition to Hong Lian's insistence, none of them supported Mu Tai.
As such, Hong Lian successfully protected Hong Xiu. However, Mu Fan remained in the First Realm because of Mu Tai's insistence.
Moreover, it was also because of Mu Tai's insistence. Since young, Mu Fan had been instilled with the idea of devouring Hong Xiu.
Since young, in Mu Fan's eyes, Hong Xiu was not an independent person. She was a part of him. Sooner or later, he would devour and refine her.
It was also because of Mu Tai's influence that Mu Fan's attitude towards Hong Xiu was like this. Moreover, it had been like this since young.
So many years had passed. However, this time, after Mu Fan displayed the ability to devour and refine the Will Of The Heavenly Way, the Realm Lords' attitudes had changed greatly. In fact, it was not unrelated to what had happened back then.
Back then, the Realm Lords did not support Mu Tai because none of them were confident that it would succeed. After all, everything was just a guess. However, it was different now. After Mu Fan displayed the ability to devour the Will Of The Heavenly Way, everyone saw hope. Moreover, according to Mu Tai, if Mu Fan could devour Hong Xiu's essence and bloodline power, Mu Fan would definitely be able to devour and refine the Will Of The Heavenly Way completely.
Previously, they did not see hope. However, now that they saw it, it was not surprising that the Realm Lords' attitudes had changed so drastically.
Luo Li sighed lightly and said plainly, "Everything is because of the illusory supreme realm."
In the eyes of the Sector Lords, Mu Fan and Hong Xiu weren't much. They were just test subjects that were used to verify the existence of the illusory supreme realm above the Immortal Emperor Realm.
If one did not reach the level of Luo Li and the other Realm Lords, it would be difficult to understand the feeling of loneliness at the top.
They were already the strongest in Ba Huang, comparable to the Will Of The Heavenly Way. Everything in the world was at their fingertips.
Everything you could think of, cultivation methods, cultivation resources, spirit stones, and so on, as long as they said a word, anything could be obtained. However, these things were no longer important for people at the level of Luo Li, because they no longer needed them.
For example, that extremely precious third grade immortal skill was a supreme treasure in the eyes of others, but in the eyes of Luo Li and the other Sector Lords, it was merely a piece of scrap paper.
The reason for that was because the might of a casual attack from them was not inferior to a rank three Immortal Skill. If they wanted rank three Immortal Skills, they were completely capable of creating their own.
In this world, everything was like floating clouds. What the world overlords truly valued was the realm above the immortal emperor realm. That was a realm that no one has ever reached before but you could sense that it truly existed.
This is everyone's only pursuit, and also their wish.
In order to verify the illusory supreme realm above the immortal emperor realm, as well as to find a way to break through, the Sector Lords were willing to pay any price.
Everything was for that illusory supreme realm. Hearing Luo Li's words, Red Lotus remained silent.
She naturally knew what everyone was thinking, because she herself had always been looking for a way to break through that realm. In other words, she was trying to verify whether the immortal emperor realm was the end of the martial dao.
However, if she had to sacrifice her own daughter for this, then Red Lotus would absolutely not do it. Not for other reasons, but just because of her mother's instinct, Red Lotus couldn't do it.
In the past, Red Lotus thought that she was ruthless enough to sacrifice everything in order to verify the illusory supreme realm. However, after becoming a mother, Red Lotus discovered that she simply couldn't do it.
That was her instinct as a mother, so she couldn't do anything that would harm Red Lotus.
They were already filled with regret in their hearts. But now, things could no longer be changed. The various world overlords saw hope, the hope Mu Tai spoke of. Under such circumstances, it was impossible for the various world overlords to stop. This was especially so for Mu Tai. He had persisted for so many years. Right now, it was impossible for him to stop.
After a long while, Red Lotus raised her head and looked at Luo Li. Seeing this, Luo Li knew what Red Lotus meant and helplessly shook his head.
"Give up, some things can't be reversed."
"You also want to see if Mu Tai's words can really succeed?" Red Lotus's eyes were overflowing with coldness.
Facing Red Lotus's questioning, Luo Li remained silent for a moment, then without concealing anything, he nodded and said, "After so many years of friendship, I don't want to lie to you."
Seeing Luo Li nod, Red Lotus's eyes flashed with a touch of despair. If even Luo Li thought so, then she really couldn't change anything.
Sensing the despair in Red Lotus's eyes, Luo Li paused for a moment, then said, "At our level, our former relatives and friends have all turned into a pile of yellow soil. What kinship, friendship, love, all of these have long been numbed to the extreme. The only thing we pursue is the illusory and uncertain Martial Dao."
"Is there a higher realm after the Immortal Emperor Realm? Is this the end of the Martial Dao? You're also an Immortal Emperor Realm almighty, so you should know that this is what we value the most. It's also what we've been pursuing all this time. Therefore, now that we see hope, no one wants to give up, including me."
Luo Li spoke his thoughts truthfully. Like the other Realm Lords, Luo Li also wanted to see if there was a higher cultivation realm after the Immortal Emperor Realm.
However, after all, Luo Li and Red Lotus had a good personal relationship. He didn't want to see Red Lotus get hurt at this time, so he proposed to bring her to the Seventh Realm. At the same time, Luo Li also didn't want Red Lotus to ruin Mu Tai's plan.
It might seem contradictory, but if one thought about it carefully, they would find it to be normal. This was because Luo Li didn't care about Hong Xiu or Mu Fan from the bottom of his heart. If he were to stand at their height, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that everyone was like ants to him. Naturally, he wouldn't feel too emotional over one or two ants.
Just as Luo Li and Red Lotus were talking, on the other side, Xiao Chen, who was in the Immortal Realm, also received a message from Qiu Ru.
After a moment of silence with a solemn expression, Xiao Chen finally said to Yu Shujin, "Let's go back to the Immortal Realm."
Something had happened to Red Lotus, and Ye Xiao was seriously injured. After receiving the news, Xiao Chen naturally couldn't sit idly by. No matter how Xiao Chen faced the matter with Red Lotus, since Red Lotus was in danger, Xiao Chen couldn't remain indifferent. It was not for anything else, but because Red Lotus had been good to him. As for the rest, it was a matter for the future.
