"It’s been a long ti... Mr. Joseph."
A young face appeared, wearing a Taoist robe, with delicate features, completely different from the sickly fat man he rembered.
But from the outline, it could vaguely be seen that it should indeed be him.
"I knew... you weren’t dead!"
At the mont the thunder struck, the major families had already slaughtered each other until not much was left. A common soldier removed his helt and armor, revealing a person even Joseph felt terrified of.
Yeah, who else could set up such a stage?
Wasn’t it said that this guy had already assimilated with the system?
Why?
"Consider it death." Pu Yunchuan smiled and said, "The outco of assimilating with the system ans that there are many situations where I can’t act freely, otherwise, you would have died a thousand tis over, and now the cost of plotting against you is that I will no longer be able to have my own thoughts in the future."
"Why did you have to go to such lengths?" Joseph was both angry and puzzled, "Back then... you had clearly given up on exterminating us, you had already tacitly agreed to our actions, hadn’t you?"
"I never agreed..." Pu Yunchuan’s smile slightly froze, "I just couldn’t manage to protect both here and the mortal world."
"Bullshit, you just didn’t want to die!"
"Is that so?" Pu Yunchuan laughed imdiately upon hearing this, "For so many years, I’ve always wanted to imrse myself in your thoughts, because for many years, I couldn’t understand what kind of ntality would cause a person to act so crazily out of fear of death."
"But as it turns out, I can’t do it. After controlling this world, I already possess your power. If I wanted, I could also have your authority, but I still can’t consider ordinary people as nothing and living people as a set of data, even though this is a data world. I still can’t do it."
"At that ti, I knew that to beat you, patience was key. You are crazy and capable of doing anything, and I also realized that under no circumstances could I cooperate with you, even if this world were destroyed in the end. Because if I cooperated with you, this world would inevitably be destroyed anyway. Nothing can fill your ever-craving heart for power."
"Killing us won’t help!" Joseph saw his opponent’s resolve and his eyes grew wild, "People in this world are like this. If the world is too human-like, the result will be the sa as us. Only greedy people can ascend, and those who ascend beco ever more greedy, willing to devour everything. You can’t stop it; killing will only birth another group. You can’t kill them all!"
"That’s sothing for future generations to figure out." Pu Yunchuan laughed even more joyously.
He had imagined seeing his opponent’s barriers break for a long ti, and being able to witness it in his final monts was rather delightful.
Indeed, this world is full of greedy people, but there are also those with extensive commitnt to preservation, whether it be Chen Qing or that one of the Siao Family, or even that vacillating Old Liu, they aren’t like Elder Long and his kin.
But he knew that no matter how much ti passed, they would not beco like Elder Long, just as he could not, even after billions of years, beco that way.
As for why there weren’t such people during the wars in the past, it wasn’t that there weren’t any, Chen Qing was one, wasn’t he? And so was he, only not in the positions of power.
As the other side suggested, greedy individuals more easily climb to high positions and more readily rule the world, and the fate of the world is often not under the control of people with principles. The world is not a movie; there is no saying that justice must prevail, human extinction is a coincidence, and surviving until now is also a coincidence.
And it is the sa with this world. Its birth was a coincidence, and if one day the high-level beings among themselves resemble another Elder Long, and once again lead to destruction, that... would also be a coincidence!
The future of this world is unclear, and who will dominate it in the future is also uncertain. There is so truth in saying that the world... is led by a minority, so who ultimately takes charge, and what the fate will be, no one can predict.
But...
"At least for now, we can be the masters!" Pu Yunchuan laughed happily. For billions of years, this was the first ti he had laughed so heartily, and it felt almost like the last ti he was this happy was when his senpai agreed to be his girlfriend.
With his smile, the surrounding space revolved, dispersing countless energy.
The energy gathered by the heads of the various families visibly dissipated.
Clearly, in the space of the Taoist Sect, they had also seen this ability, called Infinite!
Infinite can disperse any energy in the world and reset any internal structure to zero. All power cos from structural techniques, and even for Taoist Masters, it is the sa. Without structure, any law is empty talk.
Infinite Power, turning whole into zero, but the downside is that Pu Yunchuan is also the sa, without the power to resist, the heavenly thunder doesn’t recognize him as the master of the Taoist Sect!
"You’re a madman!" Joseph, seeing the energy disappear, struggled desperately, but no matter how he struggled, it was futile. When a person who mastered the world’s laws was willing to trade their life with you and found an opportunity, how could you possibly break free?
"Am I a madman?" Pu Yunchuan was even happier, "Is that how you see ? But I think, in the eyes of normal people, I should be considered a...hero?"
"Ah, it’s quite embarrassing, this term, hahaha... But... not bad!"
As soon as he finished speaking, purple thunder crashes down, instantly obliterating the entire region. Whether a Taoist Master or a Taoist Lord, the strongest army or the most powerful family, none had the slightest room for resistance under that purple lightning.
The power of destruction could destroy all in the world; this is the rule....
Old Liu watched the scene from afar, his expression incredibly complex. When he cooperated with Pu Yunchuan years ago, he already felt this person was extraordinary. If not for different domains or slightly better opportunities, this guy should be the most creative scientist in the world.
If not for the group of greedy people, if not for the ostentatious tis back then, if not for his unfortunate family, this guy would definitely be the brightest star.
But even now, it is so.
His smile, even under the thunder, is so radiant.
The Emperor looked at that handso young man and, along with his sister, bowed deeply!
The mindset of "those not of my race must have different hearts" also slightly loosened in his heart.
Maybe... so things he thought too decisively, maybe... Chen Qing was right, it’s all a mass of data, what is the notion of different races? Just people from different worlds.
As everyone was moved, a ray of light descended from the sky.
That white figure rushed into the domain while the thunder had not yet dissipated.
Seeing this, Old Liu frowned, and the Emperor let out a faint sigh.
"Brother?"
