Chapter 456 - 456 Perspectives
456 Perspectives
Yuchi’s current emotions had already been noticed by Cofuran. However, she did not appear. Instead, she quietly looked at this matter from the perspective of a bystander.
In fact, the reason why Yuchi had such a reaction was very simple. It was because Yuchi had already developed a feeling of empathy.
To Yuchi, he was well aware of Yue Hanjiang’s attachment to him. This attachment was innate, and not rational at all, as it had been ingrained by the Heavenly Dao.
Only in this way could they form a close relationship with their guardians, who were supposed to wholeheartedly protect them.
Even if Yuchi wanted to kill Yue Hanjiang now, Hanjiang would definitely not hesitate to let him do so. Jinxes were just like that. They were simple beings that completely entrusted themselves to their guardians.
Such a level of trust was almost non-existent in this world. Even if it was due to the Heavenly Dao, how could one bear to kill their own jinx?
It was simply unthinkable, and the mere thought of it made Yuchi furious.
So what if they did it for the ‘greater good’?
If the ‘greater good’ required such a price, then it was not worth it!
This was pure selfishness masquerading as righteousness.
They could talk all they wanted about saving the world and righting the wrong, but it would not change the fact that they had put some mindless goal ahead of their own responsibility.
They were a bunch of f*cking lunatics!
To be honest, this whole thing made Cofuran’s heart ache as well.
In fact, she did not care about the fight between the moon god race and the Knights of the Round Table. That was something that was bound to happen sooner or later due to the things that had happened in the past.
They were simply charging into their own fates. What she cared about was herself and Yuchi. She looked at him silently, allowing him to take in the situation for himself and experience the emotions.
The reason why she had scoffed at the Knights of the Round Table was that she could see from the beginning that the Knights of the Round Table would gradually end up losing themselves to their obsession. They had come together because they had the same goal in the beginning, but had lost their way and their wills to their obsession.
To put it in plain words, they had descended into a dead end, and had chosen to sacrifice their loyal partners for the sake of their obsession.
Nothing in the world would remain unchanged. The world was always changing.
There would always be good and bad changes. Nothing was absolutely dirty. It was just a difference in perspective and starting point.
…
After Yuchi left, Gu Yushen and the other man hovered in their air, their eyes filled with confusion. They could not understand how or why Yuchi could reach his current level without killing his jinx. The speed of his growth was too shocking. Reaching the demigod level in ten to twenty years was unprecedented.
However, since they could not be friends, at least he was not an enemy.
It was not that bad.
Honestly, they did not want him to walk down the same path as they had.
Gu Yushen turned around silently, her eyes filled with loneliness. The man beside them did not say a word as well. The two of them left for the next battlefield.
A war would not stop just due to one or two sentences, or it would not be a war. This was, after all, their obsession.
…
Hanjiang and Bu Tingyue stood in the distance. They were unaware of what Yuchi was speaking to those two mysterious people about.
However, for Bu tingyue, this was the first time she had seen what true horror was!
This was especially true when she saw the moon falling from the sky up close!
It was simply shocking beyond belief!
She seriously doubted if the ground could withstand the impact, and watching that huge ball of fire fall from the sky was extremely terrifying!
“Is this what a true battle between the myriad races looks like? This far surpasses any fights and battles in the Alchemist Valley. It was no wonder Senior could remain so calm no matter what was thrown his way in the Alchemist Valley. If this is what he’s used to, everything there was just peanuts.”
Bu Tingyue looked at the shattered moon emotionally.
If Bu Tingyue were to return to the valley now, she would definitely stop the alchemists from ever leaving the valley. They were not ready at all. One wrong step, and the entire population would be eradicated in an instant.
Such a thing was actually possible!
Yuchi then returned to their side.
He did not say a word. First, he touched Hanjiang’s little head. Then, as she looked at him lovingly, he put his forehead against hers.
When he felt the girl’s slightly cold forehead, Yuchi smiled and said, “Let’s not worry about the other things for now. Let’s go to Shengyun’s place first.”
“We’ll go to the angel race’s territory and find out what’s going on. As for the other things, they don’t matter. Let them develop for now.”
“Otherwise, if we were to participate in this kind of war now, it would get very complicated, and it would be hard for us to extricate ourselves.”
On the surface, it looked like a war between the Knights of the Round Table and the moon god race. However, this was simply a fight for interests, and even the winning side would not truly be victorious.
A perfect outcome to this war did not exist.
The development of all things would inevitably be accompanied by great sacrifices, and these sacrifices would be made by those who had no say in it. In most cases, it was the weak who were sacrificed.
This was the main reason why everyone wanted to be above the rest. Who the hell wanted to be sacrificed?
Yue Hanjiang nodded obediently.
She did not know what to say.
Soon after, she was curious and asked softly, “Master, I will always be your disciple… Also, why don’t I see the other jinxes…”
“Where did they go?”
