It was not an exaggeration to say that Huan Chenxue's warning had saved his life.
Yi Yun knew very well that Bai Yueyin, who could even harm Jian Qingyang, would definitely not spare him.
"I still have two matters I would like to consult you on, Miss Huan."
Yi Yun had too many questions on his trip to the Mirage Sea Realm. It was not easy for him to meet Huan Chenxue, so he naturally had to clarify everything.
"Young Master Yi, please ask away," said Huan Chenxue lightly.
"I would like to know what the demonic servants and evil spirits that have invaded the Yang God Empyrean Heaven are. Is there an ancient race, such as the sealed bronze giant, controlling all of this? "
Yi Yun was already aware of the origins of the demonic servants. They were likely the servants of the remnant races from ancient times. They had once fought the hundred races.
However, the demonic servants had been in slumber for so long. Now that they had suddenly awakened, there had to be a mastermind.
"Do you think it's the bronze giant …" Huan Chenxue shook her head gently. "It's not them. I've said it before. There has never been harmony among humans. It's only because their common enemy is too powerful that they have no choice but to join forces …"
"Among humans, there are always ambitious and unscrupulous people. They want to obtain more, but they are lacking in strength. Therefore, they begin to take the evil path …"
"The demonic servants you speak of happen to be released by humans themselves."
"Oh!?" Yi Yun's heart palpitated. Although he had a vague guess when he heard the first half of Huan Chenxue's words, he was still astounded when he received her confirmation.
The war in ancient times had caused humans to suffer immense losses. Now that the war had passed, history had been sealed and people had forgotten their pain. Yet, someone had begun to awaken the slumbering demonic servants. Were they mad?
"Is there no one stopping them from doing so? Does no one consider the consequences? "
"Of course there is. However, the person controlling all of this is no ordinary person to begin with. They operate in secret, so how can it be easy to stop them? Furthermore, there are complicated relationships involved. In terms of consequences, the person who released the demonic servants must have considered it more thoroughly than you. "
"Do you think that the world being in chaos and plunging humans into misery and suffering is the consequence? Perhaps there were some people in the world who were happy to see such a thing happen. The world had been peaceful for too long. After the game between the major powers had become a foregone conclusion, it was very difficult to seek new benefits. However, if the rules were broken, it was possible to obtain even more benefits. Many people looked forward to the destruction and establishment, obtaining great benefits from it! More than twenty years ago, didn't you join forces with the Guiyuan family and the Paradise Chapter to destroy the Myriad Immortal Pavilion? "
Huan Chenxue countered with a question, leaving Yi Yun speechless. Indeed, he had not destroyed the Myriad Immortal Pavilion to rid the populace of evil. He had done it for revenge and to protect himself. He wanted to make himself feel at ease.
"The ancient races have already been wiped out. Those who opened the Pandora's Box thought that they could control the Evil Spirits. Even if they couldn't control them, the scale of the disaster wouldn't exceed the Hundred Race War of the ancient times."
"The world being in chaos is a pain to all life, but there are people who are willing to see it happen. Heroes are born in troubled times. In ancient times, there were eight Godly Monarchs. Other than them, there were other influential figures. Any one of them would be terrifyingly powerful. But now, it's too difficult to attain such a cultivation level in times of peace. Perhaps, there are people who look forward to making a breakthrough in times of chaos."
Huan Chenxue's words left Yi Yun feeling an inexplicable feeling. He originally believed that the rebirth of the demonic servants was a sign of the ancient races making a comeback. He never expected that humans were the ones who facilitated the awakening of the demonic servants.
Humans were warlike to begin with. Ordinary people would fight endlessly for their own interests. Furthermore, there were some psychopathic people who wanted to seek revenge on the world. These people were even more dangerous. They were capable of anything.
Yi Yun knew the evils of human nature. However, he was not a person who bemoaned the state of the universe or pitied the fate of mankind. He was not a lunatic who would doubt life after seeing the ugliness of human nature, nor would he wish to destroy the entire world. He was only Yi Yun, a mortal who pursued the martial path and wanted to transcend the cycle of samsara.
He had a clear goal and he drew a clear line between gratitude and grudges. He followed his heart. Regardless of how the world fought, as long as it did not offend him, it had nothing to do with him.
"Miss Huan, do you know the master behind Skyfire Sacred Hands? He has planted a seal on me. "
Although the seal planted by Skyfire Sacred Hands's master was enveloped by the Azure Wood Divine Tree, it would still take time to completely refine it.
"Young Master Yi, compared to Bai Yueyin, that red-haired man is just a trivial figure. If you want to face Bai Yueyin, he will only be a whetstone. By the way, he has three companions. I wish that you can kill them one by one within fifteen years!"
Fifteen years!
A glint flashed in Yi Yun's eyes. He had only cultivated for a hundred years. If it were anyone else, they would treat him as a junior. However, Huan Chenxue thought so highly of him.
"In the next fifteen years, I'll recommend a place for you to go. Cultivate there." As Huan Chenxue spoke, she handed a letter to Yi Yun.
"How to get there is described in the letter. As for your pure Yang broken sword, I suggest you leave it here."
Yi Yun did not hesitate as he handed the pure Yang broken sword over with both hands.
Since the two pure Yang broken swords were connected, the sword was a ticking time bomb on Yi Yun.
"Miss Huan, do you have a way to conceal the sword's aura to prevent Bai Yueyin from finding it?"
Yi Yun did not suspect that Huan Chenxue was lying to him. If she wanted the sword, there was no need for her to take such a roundabout route. He was only worried that the sword would harm Huan Chenxue.
"I do have some means. This Mirage Sea Realm is not a place that Bai Yueyin can easily find."
Huan Chenxue extended her slender hand and took Yi Yun's sword. Following that, she returned to the bamboo building and took out another sword.
This sword was about four feet long. The icy-blue scabbard looked like it was condensed from ice. It was crystalline and abnormally beautiful.
"Since I have left your pure Yang broken sword behind, you cannot be without a sword. This is my companion sword. I'll give it to you."
As Huan Chenxue spoke, she handed the sword to Yi Yun.
Yi Yun was taken aback. Huan Chenxue's companion sword? Before he realized the meaning behind Huan Chenxue's words, he saw Elder Mo's expression change.
"Miss, you … you …"
Before he could finish his words, the ice-blue sword was already in Yi Yun's hands.
"Miss, didn't you previously say that this sword is …"
Elder Mo's voice sounded a little anxious. Yi Yun looked at Elder Mo in surprise. His impression of Elder Mo was that he was always composed. He had never seen Elder Mo lose his composure.
What was wrong with the sword?
"Elder Mo, there's no need to speak further. Since I'm doing this, I naturally have a decision. I'll give this sword to Young Master Yi."
