"This …" Zhao Fangxu was very doubtful when he heard this. He did not understand why the old man would say that.
After all, in the eyes of the person in charge of the company, if the Inhumans really chose to kill ordinary people, it would really destroy the originally stable and harmonious order. It might even trigger an all-out war between ordinary people and the Inhumans.
"The Inhumans and ordinary people are fundamentally the same. Everyone is a compatriot who has lived on this land since ancient times …" The old man naturally knew what Zhao Fangxu was doubting, so he continued to speak.
"But the two are fundamentally different at the same time. The difference is that the Inhumans have power, and on the level of individual strength, they are indeed better than ordinary people …"
"What's ironic is …"
"The weak have always felt that they are inferior to the strong from the bottom of their hearts. They are used to only seeing their own weakness compared to the strong, but they can't see that they are actually the same as the strong on a certain level. As long as they work hard to find the right way … they will not lose to the strong in their eyes."
"With the development of time and nature …"
"The strong gradually decline, the weak find the right way and work hard to develop into the new strong …"
"At this time …"
"The history of the otherfolk as powerful beings, as well as the fact that they still had power even after their decline, in the eyes of those who came later … but still felt inferior, the otherfolk became an enemy that could threaten their position at any moment."
"And …"
"Such powerful yet self-abased ordinary people make up the majority of the crowd. It's because they know how powerful the Inhumans used to be and worship those outstanding Inhumans in history. In order to protect their own status, they would never choose to accept the existence of the Inhumans from the beginning."
At this point..,
The old man looked at Zhao Fangxu calmly and said:
"Little Zhao, you just said that the Inhumans are the reason why ordinary people and Inhumans are where they are today because of their power?"
"But if you ask me …"
"The fact is that after the Inhumans declined, they still maintained a relatively strong power. That's why they are still in this world today. Otherwise … they would have been completely wiped out by latecomers."
"And the reason why they have come to this point today …"
"There is no doubt that it is because ordinary people have become stronger. On the other hand, the Inhumans have been declining generation after generation …"
"Eight strange skills …"
"Under the absolute strength of an ordinary person, even if they learned it, they wouldn't be able to do much. Yet, the Mutants were actually fighting over it …"
"Now, if it weren't for the rational people who didn't wish to sacrifice the ordinary people during the annihilation of the Inhumans, the Inhumans … The moment they decided to give up resistance and accept control, they had already decided their fate."
"Brothers and sisters, and humanitarianism …"
"Little Zhao, don't tell me you think that these things from ordinary people are also applicable to the Mutants who have long been classified as Mutants … You're too naive."
"Look at those guys who talk about humanitarianism all the time. How many of them actually succeeded in deceiving themselves? Which one of them doesn't talk about justice all the time, but in their hearts, they only think about how much benefits they can gain by using the banner of justice?"
"…" Zhao Fangxu was speechless.
"Humans don't even care about the life and death of their own kind for their own benefits. As for the Inhumans … why do they think that they will be taken care of?" The old man asked calmly.
"Isn't it because both sides have power and need a reasonable explanation when fighting for benefits? Isn't that why there is such a spiritual totem like 'justice'?"
"Survival is justice. Strength is justice. But no matter how you explain it … the only thing you can't rely on is giving up resistance and hoping that others will bring you justice."
"Justice is something that you have to fight for yourself …"
"You …" Zhao Fangxu hesitated.
"Is this to let the Inhumans truly integrate into society, and then take the opportunity to gain enough status and power, and … seek common ground while reserving differences with ordinary people?"
"After all, we are still on the same side. The hatred … isn't too deep." The old man looked up at the moon that was getting rounder by the day and said,
"Besides …"
"Our race has always valued our brothers and sisters. I believe that as long as there is a relatively suitable time and reason, we will accept each other and seek common ground while reserving differences … It will inevitably be an easy thing to achieve."
"This reason …" After Zhao Fangxu roughly understood the old man's thoughts, the look in his eyes became more or less complicated.
"It's actually a true Mutant who doesn't belong to any side?"
Hearing this,
The old man seemed to have thought of something happy. He smiled but didn't directly answer Zhao Fangxu's question.
"After experiencing hundreds of years of humiliation, we were not defeated by difficulties in the end. We stood upright and waited for our luck …"
"No matter if he's an outstanding latecomer or a generous ancestor from the ancient times … He has indeed brought us a chance. A chance for us to stand in front of everyone."
"Whether he is the legendary Yinggou or not, whether he represents disaster in the eyes of others, but for me … I want him to be the last god guarding this land."
"After all, with his' ambition 'of only wanting to live freely, we are still very likely to make this happen … isn't it?"
"Do you really believe in Xiao Jiang?" Zhao Fangxu asked doubtfully.
"Why not?" The old man said without hesitation.
"I've never liked to listen to what people say. I only want to see what the other party does with my own eyes and then judge who the person in front of me is."
"Yinggou … No, Liu Xiaojiang's actions are not biased towards either the ordinary people or the Mutants. Instead, he has been working hard for himself and the people around him from the beginning. If he wasn't such a selfish person with a bottom line … I really wouldn't dare to hand everything over to him."
"Moreover …"
"He must want to see a world where people seek common ground while reserving differences more than us …"
"A powerful being who doesn't belong to either side of the Inhumans or the Inhumans is undoubtedly more suitable than me to be the one in charge of everything behind the scenes. Because he definitely won't be biased towards one side at any time due to his identity …"
"As for other hidden dangers …"
Speaking of which …
The old man smiled and shook his head.
"This is the first time I feel that a young man with no ambition … can actually be so cute."
"…" Zhao Fangxu was speechless.
"… No ambition, huh? You're really good at judging people … Yes, if you think about the power that child Xiao Jiang possesses, he … is no doubt such a person with no ambition."
"However, when Little Jiang realizes what you've arranged for him, I wonder what kind of interesting expression he'll have on his face … for someone who only wants to live a carefree life."
"Hahaha …" The old man couldn't help but laugh proudly.
"Who told him to call himself Yinggou? It is said that Yinggou was also our ancestor before he started the rebellion … This is how it should be!"
