Lou Xiaoyi was demoted to an Inspector. This change in personnel within Heaven's Eye was even more heated than his murder. It instantly spread throughout Both Interior and Exterior!
Heaven's Eye had long become Bright Eyes. This was also a special response under special circumstances. It was to raise this flag, gather strength, and maintain order.
Therefore, the news was all public.
He killed seven people and was demoted by one rank. What was going on?
Some busybodies dug into Heaven's Eye's professional system. They didn't know until they dug, but they were shocked. There were actually many ranks under the Inspector of Punishments!
Bo Zheng, Xia Guan, Bing Cao, You Fu, Pei Rong, Yu Ren, and so on … How many more people would die when this evil person was completely wiped out?
This was a person with a license to kill, so this was probably the only way to understand it.
Some were dissatisfied, some were resentful, and some were indifferent. If they didn't get involved in such a quarrel, they wouldn't be bothered at all. In fact, there was only one characteristic of this ferocious person in the Interior Realm: I won't attack unless I'm attacked!
It didn't seem excessive?
Inspector Lou planned to hold a big banquet in Interior, and the topic was his 3,000th birthday!
In fact, he wasn't too sure whether it was 3,000 years, but it was probably about the same. The key was that at this time, it was necessary to express goodwill after being cruel once and to harmonize the mood of Interior.
It was hypocritical, but it had to be done. It was a kind of attitude! It could greatly improve everyone's view of him and let people understand that although his methods were cruel, he was a reasonable person and didn't kill for the sake of killing.
Cultivators' birthdays were actually a disguised gathering. Mortals valued birthdays because they didn't have many years to live. Cultivators were different. Because of their long life rings, their birthdays were usually counted in round numbers. For example, 1,000 years, 5,000 years, 10,000 years …
Most of the time, it was a private gathering of three or five good friends, wasting time, sighing about life, commenting on the past, and looking forward to the future … It was rare to hold a big banquet like in the mortal world, where no one was rejected.
If it was too vulgar, it would lack the artistic conception of cultivation.
But Inspector Lou was different! Of course, no matter what this person did, the Interior Celestial Beings were already used to his mischief and were not surprised. However, since he had just killed someone, it was understandable for him to spread his remonstrance. They all understood what he meant!
You're here because you don't blame me for killing! Then, they would have a foundation to get along with each other.
If you don't come, does that mean you have something to say?
It was a kind of hidden stance. You could understand it as their attitude towards this matter, or as the positioning of the new and old forces, and so on.
Shuofeng Qifan was taking care of things by his side. The location was still Qing Xuan's abode of immortals. He had long treated this place as his own. Once he was done with it, he could just change to another place.
"How many tables do we need to prepare? I estimate that there are less than 400 cultivators in the Interior Realm right now. If half of them were to come, hmm, there would be plenty of tables and chairs. Where would I find them? Why don't we use stones to make up the numbers? It'll make it seem closer to nature … "
Qi Fan was a bit uncertain. The greatest difficulty of holding a banquet was that they didn't know how many guests would come. Without any preparations, they couldn't treat everyone equally. This was the beginning of a grudge.
North Wind added, "There's also the banquet! We do have the food, but it's a bit messy. Don't tell me we'll have a duck on one table and a roast lamb on the other? There are hundreds of tables! "
Of course, it was impossible for cultivators to share tables at a banquet. It had to be a table for one person. In that case, it would be difficult to maintain consistency and it would be easy to distinguish the differences. Even if he didn't eat a single mouthful, you couldn't fool him.
Lou Xiaoyi looked at them in amusement, "What are you thinking? There's no need to prepare a table!
If we're good friends, we won't care! Even if we came reluctantly, we won't stay for the banquet. We'll just say hello.
The situation is unclear and the future is unclear. At this time, it's best to keep your position. Who would really sit down to eat and drink and call each other brothers?
What I want is an attitude. They're just giving me an attitude. They're just stating the facts. It's not like we'll be on the same boat in the future. "
He guessed correctly. On the day of the banquet, all the celestials were present. It was very lively. Their attitudes were very polite and their gifts were Dafa. They just didn't stay for the banquet.
No matter what the reason was, there would always be a reason. It seemed like these people had communicated with each other and everyone had the same attitude. Their meaning was: We can tolerate your massacre this time, but it doesn't mean that you can do it in the future!
This was the normal behavior of the real top-level cultivation world. Everyone had their own pursuits. They wouldn't follow the crowd and curry favor with those in power. Cultivators who had opened their immortal wisdom were the most difficult group of people to converge with in this world.
Moreover, his friends were basically outside. They were running around everywhere, searching for the traces of insects. In the Land of the Yellow Dragon, those who stayed in the Interior Sky were mostly from the old faction. Although many people didn't participate in the confrontation between the old and new factions, they grieved for the loss of their own kind. It was very difficult for them to let go of the knot in their hearts. This was human nature.
In the end, only forty to fifty Half Immortals stayed. Compared to the nearly four hundred Half Immortals who came to congratulate him, this was very awkward. These people had successfully expressed their attitude by not cooperating with him once.
Lou Xiaoyi didn't care. He raised his wine cup and greeted his friends.
"Therefore, they will grow old! They will become history! Because they don't accept new things. They resist the trend and place themselves outside of the revolution!
Some people call this persistence, the persistence of tradition! But what I want to ask is, where does tradition come from? Is it destined from birth?
Isn't it the conclusion of the predecessors generation after generation and the revolution?
If they really respect tradition so much, they should eat raw meat and drink blood forever! And not delude themselves about immortality! "
Everyone was deeply moved. This was a paradox! In the Interior Sky, which had always been famous for its ability and quality, people naturally felt superior to those in the Exterior Sky. But before the change of the era, its revolutionary power was far inferior to those in the Exterior Sky. It was very puzzling.
"The cultivation of ancient methods is a double-edged sword! It may be more natural, but it may also hurt oneself!
We are cultivating ancient methods! It wasn't Chong Fa who followed the rules!
What are ancient methods? Are all the methods of the ancients, the predecessors, and the history good? Do they all need to be followed meticulously? Even if they are already incompatible with the current environment and are not suitable for the times?
What I want to say is, ancient is not only ancient! It is changing the ancient!
The true essence of ancient methods doesn't lie in the divine skills and secret techniques that they created. It is the spirit of the predecessors who dared to innovate in a situation where they had nothing!
Ancient is the struggle of the predecessors in the ancient environment! That's why there is the current cultivation world.
Now, the environment has changed and the era is about to change. Do we hold on to those so-called divine skills and secret techniques? Or do we follow the innovation spirit of the ancients who fought against the heavens, the earth, and the universe?
I think it is the latter. So what we are creating now will eventually become ancient methods!
This is the spirit of ancient methods! Instead of lying on the ancestors' things and not biting on them! "
This was the first time Lou Xiaoyi explained his ideas in a slightly formal setting. Needless to say, the effect was good!
He also started a debate about what ancient methods were in the Interior Sky. Amidst the vigorous debate, his ideas began to spread and deepened with the addition and perfection of his followers!
The world was about to change!
