Chapter 1370 A Guest Arrives
Li Ruoxi raised an eyebrow and said calmly, "What does the war between the celestial beings and humans have to do with me? Even if the celestial cultivators really do enter the mortal realm again, I can remain unaffected. I am not a person of this world, and I have no obligation to protect the common people of this world."
Li Ruoxi's words are realistic.
Zhang Qingyun, Ye Feng, the Buddhist sect, the Yunhai Sect, and even the Demonic Sect are all worried that the Heavenly Realm will make a comeback.
Two thousand four hundred years ago, during the war between heaven and man, the gate of time and space was opened by Zhang Qingyun. At that time, the heavenly realm was not fully prepared, but even so, it still brought great disaster to the human world.
It took almost all of humanity's cultivation power to barely repel the celestial cultivators.
If the celestial cultivators were to truly make a comeback, they would certainly be fully prepared, and it would inevitably be a bloody battle.
All those who knew that the celestial realm might make a comeback were preparing for this great war between heaven and man, and were also worried about the common people on earth.
However, Li Ruoxi did not take this matter to heart.
She put it very bluntly: even though she had lived in this world for over two thousand years, she had never considered herself a part of this world; in her heart, she was just a passerby.
She has neither the obligation nor the responsibility to protect this world.
She even looked forward to the arrival of the battle between the celestial beings and the human.
Because her situation is now extremely critical, the Yunhai Sect, the Buddhist sect, and the Demonic Sect are all keeping a close eye on her.
If the Celestial cultivators really come, the attention of both righteous and demonic cultivators will be drawn to them, and she and the forces she has secretly cultivated will be safe.
It doesn't matter whether the celestial cultivators or the mortal cultivators win; the victor will inevitably suffer heavy losses. She can then come out and clean up the mess, so that she can take over both the celestial and mortal realms at a minimal cost.
If she had developed her power step by step, it would have taken at least another five or six hundred years before she could unify the human world.
This is all under the premise that their own power has not been discovered by the righteous and demonic cultivators.
Now that her existence has been known to both the righteous and demonic factions, she can no longer secretly cultivate her power. In fact, she now faces a joint siege by the righteous path and the demonic sect.
Why not have a brutal and bloody battle between heaven and man, so that your problem can be solved?
Jinghui Shenni stared at Li Ruoxi and said, "Ruoxi, this is why I have not submitted to you all these years."
We are not on the same path. Your heart is too cold; you have never cared about the common people.
Li Ruoxi said, "Jinghui, humans and gods are two different worlds. Gods are destined to be high above, and humans are destined to be ruled by gods. In the eyes of gods, no matter how many people there are, they are just ants."
What I'm saying goes against the Buddhist principle of equality for all beings, and you certainly won't agree with it, but that's the reality.
Moreover, the laws governing this universe have never been based on gentleness, kindness, respect, frugality, or humility, but rather on strength.
The history of human civilization is, in fact, a brutal and long history of war.
It's not that I'm selfish, but the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest, is the law of the universe.
Don't try to persuade me with that "the sea of suffering is boundless, but there is always a shore to return to." I told you before, your shore may not be a shore, and my shore may not be the sea.
Jinghui, although you have reached the Heavenly Limit Realm, the Heavenly Limit Realm is not the end of cultivation. You have fought with Dugu Chan, so you should know that our level is not even a speck of dust in the vast universe.
All we can do is become stronger. If we are not strong enough, we will become ants that can be trampled on at will in the eyes of others.
Jinghui Shenni silently watched Li Ruoxi, who was somewhat delirious.
She felt that Li Ruoxi had gone mad over the years, and that Li Ruoxi's inner demons were too heavy.
If Li Ruoxi is allowed to continue developing in this way, she will surely become a great scourge to the human world and even the Three Realms.
If she succeeds and opens a spacetime portal connecting Earth, then what awaits both worlds will be an absolutely devastating catastrophe.
The two fell silent.
They had been trying to persuade each other for the past few days, but they were like travelers standing at the foot of a mountain, looking at the scenery from different angles, and each of them believed that what they saw was the real view.
Just as the two were silent, they suddenly raised their heads at the same time and looked in one direction.
Li Ruoxi put her phone into her storage bracelet and said calmly, "Jinghui, you don't want to cause trouble, but trouble always seems to find you. Your trouble is here."
A strange light flashed in the calm eyes of the nun Jinghui.
She said slowly, "It's a cold and lonely night. Since you've come, there's no need to hide. Show yourself."
"The nun has such excellent eyesight! She spotted this old woman even when she was still ten miles away. I admire her, I admire her..."
Before the words were even finished, the newcomer had already traveled ten miles and appeared outside the suspended pavilion.
There were three people who came, the leader of whom was an old woman holding a dragon-headed cane.
It was none other than Yue Yinling's grandmother, Yuan Jiugong.
Two other people were floating behind Yuan Jiugong. They looked quite old, dressed in blue robes, with sparse white hair tied in Taoist buns. They were clearly members of the Taoist Xuanmen sect.
The two old men had calm expressions, but their eyes were cloudy and unfathomable.
However, since these two came to Chanyue Nunnery with Yuan Jiugong to stop Jinghui Shenni from interfering with Yunhai Sect's actions tonight, it is clear that these two are no ordinary people.
Jinghui, the nun, stood up, walked to the edge of the suspended pavilion, and looked at the three people floating in the air.
A strange light flickered in her calm gaze once again.
"Xuan'e, Xuan Tao, Xuan Hai..."
Yuan Jiugong frowned slightly and said, "The nun has a good eye. The three of us have not left Tianyun Mountain for at least four hundred years. Everyone thought we had already ascended to immortality. I didn't expect the nun to recognize us at a glance."
The nun Jinghui said calmly, "The three of you are all highly accomplished sages of the mortal world. Four hundred years ago, I had the honor of seeing your esteemed faces, and the memory remains vivid. May I ask what brings you to my humble abode tonight?"
Yuan Jiugong said, "The three of us are passing through this place tonight and feel a bit thirsty. We would like to ask the nun for a cup of tea."
The nun Jinghui said calmly, "I just wanted a cup of tea. My little nunnery has good tea. I'm afraid the three of you didn't come here tonight just for tea."
"Now that the three of you are here, it seems tonight is the time for the Cloud Sea Sect to make its move."
Yuan Jiugong flew forward another ten feet or so and said, "This old woman doesn't understand a single word of what the nun said. Why, won't the nun invite the three of us in for a seat?"
Jinghui Shenni glanced at Li Ruoxi beside her.
She said, "You should leave this place if you are a guest here."
Li Ruoxi naturally refused to leave.
She smiled and said, "Your guest is my guest, let's chat."
