Today, Meng Jingye had to admit that Fang Yun had the temperament of a leader.
It wasn't because Fang Yun had discovered the crux of the problem in advance, but because Fang Yun didn't follow the rules. He didn't have the mindset of "doing nothing is good, doing more makes more mistakes, doing less makes less mistakes".
In fact, everyone present could quickly realize Fang Yun's opinions and questions. On the surface, it was just a matter of time, but at a critical moment, a single mistake could change the outcome, or even cause the entire human race to fall into eternal damnation.
Fang Yun didn't exceed the others by too much. After taking half a step, everyone followed and stood side by side with Fang Yun.
However, it was this seemingly insignificant half a step that determined whether a person had the ability to lead or not.
It wasn't just half a step, it was choosing a direction and determining the path!
Many times, the path and direction were more important than hard work and talent.
As Fang Yun spoke, he held the Illusory Bead in his hand. Rays of light shot out and intertwined to form a map of the Ten Frigid Ancient Land.
"Everyone, please take a look. The Ninth Frigid City of the human race is located in the southeast. It is separated from the Ice Emperor Palace in the center by the Wanxing Mountain. The only canyon in the Wanxing Mountain is occupied by the Star Demon Barbarians. Although the human race and the Star Demon Barbarians aren't allies, we are good neighbors, so we can easily pass through. Even if the Ice Emperor Palace appears, we can still pass through. Is that true? "
A scholar said, "If the human race occupies the Wanxing Mountain Pass, we will also allow the Star Demon Barbarians to pass through, even if it's just to go to the Ice Emperor Palace. You mean … "
"Yes! If the Blood Demon Barbarians occupy the Wanxing Mountain Pass, we only have two paths. We can either take it by force or go around the Wanxing Mountain Pass. It's not difficult to go around the Wanxing Mountain Pass, but the problem is, unless we know when the Ice Emperor Palace will open and set off half a month in advance, what awaits us on the way is the destruction of the ancient land. "
A scholar said, "We talked about the Wanxing Mountain Pass the day before yesterday, but we realized that if we take it now, we will definitely have a direct conflict with the Blood Demon Barbarians. The Blood Demon Barbarians will definitely not wait for us to occupy it."
The rest of the scholars nodded slightly. In fact, almost everyone had considered Wanxing Pass. After all, it was too important. However, the consequences of starting a full-scale war with the Blood Demon Barbarians were too severe.
Fang Yundao: "I would like to ask you a few questions. In the current situation, the possibility of us starting a war with the Blood Demon Barbarians is more than seventy percent. Do you want to fight the Blood Demon Barbarians in our Ninth Cold City, or attack Wanxing Pass after the Blood Demon Barbarians occupy it? Or do you want to occupy Wanxing Pass in advance? Or do you want to fight the Blood Demon Barbarians outside the Seventh Cold City? In other words, if a war is about to break out, will you choose to sit back and watch the flames of war spread to your own territory before going to war, or will you work hard to control the outbreak of war and only let it break out in the territory of others? "
Everyone was silent. The result was obvious. Defending Wanxing Pass in advance was the best choice, but going outside the Star Demon Barbarian City was too radical.
"Actually, after the Star Demon Barbarian asked for help, I've been thinking about how we should consider this problem. From my personal point of view, I don't want to help the Star Demon Barbarian, because this might implicate other humans. No matter who wins or loses, the human race will suffer a certain amount of loss, and it will also affect my literary reputation. From the human race's point of view, we shouldn't fight either. After all, no one can predict the future. It's best to deal with all kinds of changes by sticking to the status quo. However, when we look at the problem from a higher point of view, we'll realize that once the Blood Demon Barbarians take care of the Star Demon Barbarians, they won't be stupid enough to attack the human race. However, they will definitely block Wanxing Pass at all costs and obstruct the human race's path to the Ice Emperor Palace! "
Everyone nodded.
Fang Yun continued: "Therefore, I'm thinking about whether the human race will have to pay a higher price if we attack after Wanxing Pass is blocked, or if we attack now."
"We've also thought about it. However, the problem is that if we don't help the Star Demon Barbarians, we might still be able to maintain a peaceful coexistence with the Blood Demon Barbarians. Even if Wanxing Pass is blocked, we can still take a detour in advance. If we attack now, we will definitely start a war with the Blood Demon Barbarians. The price will be too high. "
Fang Yundao: "Indeed, we can take a detour. However, everyone here knows the situation in Ten Frigid Ancient Land. Ten Frigid Ancient Land will get colder and colder, and it will reach its peak when the Ice Emperor Palace appears. With so many of us rushing ahead, more than twenty percent of the people below the High Scholar level will die because of rushing. How long will we have to wait outside the Ice Emperor Palace? One month? Two months? After three months, half of the people below the High Scholar level will die! "
Everyone was silent. In fact, everyone present knew this, but they didn't dare to bear the consequences of fighting with the Blood Demon Barbarians.
Helping the Star Demon Barbarians was protecting Wanxing Pass and the human race.
Fang Yundao: "Ordinary people can't see the teeth of the Blood Demon Barbarians biting their throats. Scholars can't see the claws tearing their flesh. Elementary Scholars can't see the wails of countless innocent souls. High Scholars can't see the corpses on the way to the Ice Emperor Palace. High Scholars can't see the Blood Demon Barbarians and the Ice Race waiting in front of the Ice Emperor Palace. However, we should see it, and we must see it! The reason why we can lead the human race isn't because we can reduce their fear during a great disaster, but because we can reduce the disaster before the great disaster, and resist the disaster during the great disaster! "
Everyone's gaze became focused. Everyone looked at Fang Yundao with eyes full of respect.
"Bensei, as Xusheng, has decided that the human race will help the Star Demon Barbarians and resist the Blood Demon Barbarians. This is a great gift for the second great war of Two World Mountain! I will bear all the consequences! I will bear all the crimes! I will bear all the infamy! "
A faint trace of shame appeared on the faces of the Great Scholars present.
Making a decision was always more difficult than waiting for a decision, but people often complained about the former.
At this moment, everyone understood that Fang Yundao was indeed looking at the problem from a higher perspective. He even saw through the Demon Realm's scheme. The Ten Frigid Ancient Land was very likely to be the prelude to the second great war of Two World Mountain. If the Blood Demon Barbarians won, they would definitely use their victory to initiate the second great war of Two World Mountain.
There was no evidence to prove that this was related to the second great war of Two World Mountain, but they should see it, and they must see it!
A strange light flashed in Emperor Han's eyes. He said: "I support Fang Xusheng and try my best to help the Star Demon Barbarians. However, how to help is the key to the problem. "
"Your Majesty Han is right. In fact, if there was a suitable way to help, the Old Man would have suggested it a few days ago. The problem now is that the Old Man doesn't know how we can help." Meng Jingye said.
Fang Yundao smiled and said: "Because I went against the Punishment Hall, my income in Saint Origin World has been confiscated for the past few years. My whole family is waiting for food. As long as the Star Demon Barbarians can afford it, I will take off my official robe and represent myself to join the Star Demon Barbarians for a period of time. I will leave after I have earned enough money."
As Fang Yundao spoke, he took off his official robe and changed into an ordinary scholar's robe.
The Great Scholars from each family stood up and began to change their robes.
There seemed to be warmth flowing in Emperor Han's palace.
