Lou Xiaoyi felt his scalp go numb, but he could understand the hatred of the Front Star cultivators towards the Winged Ones. The two sides had been fighting for hundreds of thousands of years. Which cultivator had not lost their seniors and friends to the Winged Ones? Therefore, it was normal for them to be cruel. The problem was that if he went over, the Winged Ones would not be any kinder than the humans!
The True Lord obviously guessed his thoughts and comforted him, "You don't have to worry too much. The era is about to change, and everything is changing. Not only the universe, but also the mentality of both sides!
It's not like we have to exterminate the Winged Race! When the new era opens, both sides will face each other face to face. If the relationship is still as bad as it has been for hundreds of thousands of years, the Winged Ones will attack. Without the restriction of the passage, how can the Front Star withstand it?
Therefore, as long as the Winged Ones don't show too much hostility and don't go overboard with looting and killing, we won't care. In this market, there are even Winged Ones setting up stalls. It's just that there aren't many of them. "
Lou Xiaoyi nodded. This was in line with the way Cultivation creatures got along. In the face of the general trend, no race would blindly hold on to their hatred forever. Occasionally, there would be vendettas. It might still be very dangerous now, but as time went by, the situation would become more and more relaxed until the next balance point was found.
"What about the Winged Ones?"
The True Lord smiled. "Isn't it the same? Without the isolation of the passage, they can indeed come out, but it also means that the Winged Ones no longer have this natural barrier to protect themselves! No matter how many Winged Ones there are, can they outnumber the humans of the Main World? If it's still as bloody as before, the humans will see them as a threat. If they really organize forces to kill them, will they have any good?
Therefore, the Winged Ones want to improve their relationship more than us humans. Integrating into the Main World is a trend. If they come here, they will have to follow the rules of the humans, just like those immemorial beasts and void beasts!
There will be competition and war. It can be for benefits, but not just for the race. Otherwise, they will end up like Zerg! "
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. This was the nature of cultivators. Only when they knew how to compromise could they pass on. Even the demonic beasts knew this, so how could the Winged Ones, who boasted that they were as smart as humans, not know this?
The universe was changing, and every race was trying to find their place. If they couldn't find it, disaster would be waiting for them.
"In that case, isn't it a little too cruel for you to make all these bottles and jars, Fellow Daoist?"
The True Monarch nodded. "That's right! In the former Immortal Palace Market, stalls like mine could be said to be everywhere. There were bottles and jars everywhere. Everyone did this in order to vent the depression in their hearts!
But now you see, which of the people around me is selling these bottles and jars like me? The higher-ups forbade us from doing so, saying that it's against the natural order. I only managed to get such a harvest because my friends and I bumped into a few unreasonable winged people by chance. Let me tell you the truth, the next time you come here, don't even think about bumping into them again!
Unless you kill the Winged Ones yourself! "
He paused for a moment and said mysteriously, "This is a rare opportunity! I'm only telling you this because you look kind and you're also polite! This might be the last batch of bottles and jars. It'll be harder to come across them in the future. I still have a set here, it's for the female winged people … "
Lou Xiaoyi walked out of the market with a strange expression, suppressing his discomfort. He knew that the grudges of hundreds of thousands of years had made all this normal and commonplace in the eyes of the locals! You can't judge other people from the moral high ground, because you haven't felt the pain of it.
This kind of situation also happened to other races, such as the demonic beast race! If one treated the winged people as demonic beasts, it wouldn't be so unacceptable. But if one treated them as human beings, one would feel a heavy sense of guilt.
It was difficult to draw a line. Was this True Monarch more cruel, or was it more inhumane for the four of them to eat spirit beast meat in the Interior Realm? Perhaps in the future, with the evolution of the cultivation civilization, this kind of phenomenon would gradually decrease, but not now.
One couldn't say that the demonic beasts, winged people, and other non-human cultivation creatures were so pitiful. Their cruelty was reflected in another way. Perhaps they would swallow you alive. Would that be considered uncivilized?
The reason why they didn't put you in bottles and jars was because compared to other cultivation creatures, the value of the human body was not worth mentioning. They were the most disgusting kind in the cultivation world. They were not nutritious, their meat was not smooth enough, their intestines were not clean, and they could carry all kinds of diseases.
Humans could treat the demonic beasts' feet as delicacies, full of collagen and chewy. But demonic beasts couldn't treat human feet as delicacies. Even if they didn't like to bathe, the taste was so strong that they didn't need any seasoning.
Lou Xiaoyi had a good habit. If he couldn't do it himself, he would never ask others from a moral point of view! The only thing he could do was to buy all the bottles and jars of the True Monarch and prepare to find a place to destroy them to calm the discomfort in his heart.
The winged people and humans looked too similar.
He found a remote place in the immortal palace building next to the market square and took out a few sets of bottles and jars. He smashed them and allowed the medicinal liquid to flow out, but he gathered a pile of scattered items together and used the Samadhi Fire to burn them all.
As a half-immortal, it was unreasonable that he couldn't use fire. But he couldn't use fire that was too high-end, unless he took out a flying sword. The Samadhi Fire was the secret fire of a cultivator. It was the easiest and was the instinct of every cultivator when they reached the level of Yuanying. It was a bit difficult to burn these things. The bones of the winged people were hollow and had a special structure. It took him a lot of effort. But relying on his profound cultivation, he didn't lose face under the strong burning.
In the universal cultivation world, different races had different ways of dealing with things after death. There were all kinds of strange ways. But there was one way that all races tacitly agreed on, and that was to burn them!
Therefore, using fire to burn them was a form of respect. If he had used other Dao realm methods, it would have been convenient, but it would have lost his original intention. He was still brooding over the fact that these Winged Men were turned into specimens. He was inclined to treat the Winged Men as a type of human.
Just as his big flame was about to go out, a Taoist came out of the immortal corridor. He had a sage-like demeanor and extraordinary appearance, but his eagle eyes were unusually sharp. Well, his hair was also a bit more exuberant.
It was a Sun Spirit Supreme!
"Arson of the immortal palace. What are you doing here?"
Lou Xiaoyi didn't bat an eyelid. "Nothing big. I was just bored and set a fire to play with."
The Taoist pressed on. "This is the body of the winged people. You're burning it here. Could it be that you secretly colluded with them?"
Lou Xiaoyi smiled in surprise. "Let's not play with these twists and turns, okay? I just couldn't bear to see their bodies exposed. What about you? You're the legendary Great Divine Wings, right? "
