Above the colt's head, there was a massive Martial Fate image. It was shaped like a great scholar who was holding a scroll to educate the masses. It was three thousand meters tall and stood tall, making people feel respect when they looked at it.
However, what shocked Lin Xuan was not Yang Ju's incredible martial arts fate, but the others in the tavern and on the street.
To his surprise, he discovered that there was not a single trace of luck above the heads of the others.
What kind of person did not have luck?
They were either dead people or illusions.
"How can this be?"
Lin Xuan was extremely shocked.
He looked at Yang Ju again, but his gaze was different. This guy was indeed extraordinary for the White Emperor to take a liking to him.
He could not help but wonder if the White Emperor had brought him to this tavern for a casual stroll.
Lin Xuan looked at the White Emperor, only to see the White Emperor looking at him with interest.
The White Emperor glared at Yang Ju and scolded jokingly, "Kid, get out of here. Don't keep me from drinking."
Yang Ju's face was bitter, but he did not give up. "Old White, please reconsider! I'm really talented! "
"Get out of here!" The White Emperor waved his hand impatiently.
"Sigh …"
Yang Ju got up and left helplessly.
Only the White Emperor and Lin Xuan were left at the table.
Lin Xuan poured a bowl of wine for the White Emperor and asked tentatively, "Senior, what's your intention?"
The White Emperor took a sip of wine and looked at the passing crowd outside. He said casually, "18 years ago, the owner of this tavern was Yang Ju's father. His father's brewing skills were much better than this kid's.
At that time, Yang Ju was only two years old. I once brought Ji Yuanxiu here for a drink. After that, Ji Yuanxiu never came again. "
Lin Xuan's heart skipped a beat. The White Emperor had indeed brought him here for a deeper reason. However, he was still unsure of what that deeper reason was.
In terms of martial arts fate, Yang Ju could be considered an unparalleled genius. He was even better than Shen Yukun and Maki Cangsheng.
But even if he was a peerless genius, it didn't seem like he was worth the attention of a powerhouse like the White Emperor, right?
Lin Xuan bitterly smiled and said, "Senior, please don't speak in riddles with this junior. This junior is slow-witted and really can't understand your intentions."
The White Emperor smiled mysteriously and said leisurely, "There's no hurry. It's still early. Let's drink slowly."
He pointed at the door and asked, "What do you think of the people here?"
Lin Xuan thought for a moment, then lied through his teeth, "The people here are rich, and they don't have to worry about food and clothing. The customs here are simple and honest, and the laws and government are clear. The people's livelihood is stable, and there are few disputes. Compared to most of the human world, this can be called a paradise on earth.
However, this junior doesn't understand.
The Scorching Sun Realm has existed for millions of years, and the continuation of the human race has never stopped. Why hasn't a technological civilization developed yet, and why is the industrial level still so backward? "
The White Emperor smiled and said, "The technological civilization you speak of refers to some of the advanced things on Earth, right?"
"That's right," Lin Xuan said.
The White Emperor seemed to be a little disdainful. He said, "A technological civilization is actually an inevitable stage of human development. However, a mature human world will gradually discover that a technological civilization is the wrong path for human beings. One day, they will abandon it, or at least not let it become the mainstream. Otherwise, human beings will either be destroyed by other races or self-destruct."
Lin Xuan seemed to be thinking about something, but he didn't say anything.
The White Emperor continued, "In fact, the Human Realm has always been searching for a way of living that is most suitable for human beings. From there, we can make an accurate definition of 'human'.
The Scorching Sun Realm can be considered an experimental ground.
The human race here has gone through the primitive stage of leading beasts to eat other humans, the bloody and cruel slave stage, the feudal stage of co-governance between monarchs and scholars, and the great harmony stage of the world's republic.
The awakening of wisdom, revolution, great governance, change of regime, chaos of war, the destruction of civilization … This cycle has repeated countless times.
During this period, we have also added and subtracted some things.
However, until today, we still haven't found a definite answer.
What you see now is already the best case scenario.
The people here understand loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, propriety, wisdom, and trust. They know how to control their desires, and they will also stimulate their inner courage to protect some beautiful things.
This old man believes that the people here can be considered real 'humans'. What do you think? "
Lin Xuan vaguely understood some things after hearing the White Emperor's words. The White Emperor seemed to be pointing out the right path for him, the new master of the Saint Emperor Sword, to prevent him from going astray.
Lin Xuan pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "If there is yin, there is yang. If there is good, there is evil. If there is beauty, there is ugliness. This has nothing to do with race.
Humans are fundamentally no different from tigers, wolves, rabbits, and other living creatures. It is the later education that gives us the concepts of loyalty, filial piety, good, and evil.
However, are those who do not understand loyalty, filial piety, good, and evil not humans? Aren't those evil people people?
This junior feels that there is no need to spend so much effort to discuss the definition of human nature and human nature.
I once read a book in my previous life. It said that Lord Husband is one with heaven and earth, one with the brightness of the sun and moon, one with the order of the four seasons, one with the gods and ghosts, one with the heavens and the earth, one with the heavens and the earth.
I firmly believe that as long as I do my best, the people gathered around me in the future will definitely be humans. "
The White Emperor looked at Lin Xuan with a deep gaze and smiled mysteriously: "Haha, very well, then this old man will wait and see.
Lin Xuan, the Profound Sky Godly Sword is the supreme artifact of my human race. It is the foundation of my human race for millions of years. I hope that you will take care of yourself. Do not act rashly, and do not disappoint. "
"Thank you, Senior, for your guidance. This junior will keep it in mind." Lin Xuan nodded.
"Let's go, this old man will take you to the Myriad Tower."
The White Emperor stood up and walked outside.
Lin Xuan had just stood up when he saw Yang Ju sneakily running over.
Yang Ju winked and said: "Brother Lin, this little brother wants to ask you for a favor. If Brother Lin can do it, this little brother will definitely thank you."
"Oh? What is it? "Lin Xuan asked with a smile.
Yang Ju forced a smile and said, "Brother Lin, as a martial artist, I'm sure you know many people. It's like this, can you help me introduce a few martial artists? I want to learn martial arts from them. If you help this little brother with this matter, this little brother will not hesitate to go through water and tread on fire in the future! "
Yang Ju looked at Lin Xuan with a hopeful expression and patted his chest.
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed with a strange light. He patted Yang Ju's shoulder and said: "No problem, leave this matter to this Lin. I will definitely find you a master with both ability and integrity as well as a high cultivation!"
"Great! Brother Lin, you're simply my second parent! Then this little brother will wait for the good news! "Yang Ju was overjoyed.
"Well said!"
Lin Xuan waved his hand and left the tavern.
White Emperor was already far away, his figure gradually disappearing into the horizon.
Lin Xuan stood in the middle of the street, looking at the bustling crowd and the people around him. He smiled playfully:
"Knowing loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, propriety, wisdom, and trust, being able to control their desires, and not lacking in courage, aren't the people here all saints? Haha, I don't believe it! "
Buzz!
Heaven and earth trembled slightly.
Soon after, the surrounding environment changed. The bustling crowd and the surrounding buildings disappeared in an instant, replaced by a vast ancient forest.
Only the small tavern with the white flag signboard still existed. It stood alone on the hillside, surrounded by the dense forest.
In the tavern, that young figure walked back and forth, as if he didn't know fatigue …
Lin Xuan paused in thought for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and flew in the direction that White Emperor had disappeared.
Flying high in the sky, Lin Xuan looked down at the earth once more, but he could no longer see any villages, cities, or people. He couldn't even see the shadow of any other living creature.
The Blazing Sun Realm, the birthplace of the human race, was like a desolate land of death.
After flying for a while, Lin Xuan caught up to the White Emperor and saw a bronze pavilion on top of a mountain.
This bronze pavilion had thirteen floors in total. Its design was crude, and its exterior was mottled with rust, full of the vestiges of time.
But at the same time, it was majestic and exuded the dazzling light of restrictions.
Simple, weathered, heavy, and indestructible.
The moment Lin Xuan saw this pavilion, a strange thought occurred to him.
This pavilion had probably existed for countless years, and it would continue to exist.
"This is the headquarters of our Human Path, the Aeon Tower," the White Emperor said.
