Chapter 474: World: Darkness That Even Light Cannot Dispel

null--

A fierce and powerful aura suddenly rose and spread around Wang Yao, and its scorching air waves instantly evaporated the snowflakes within a ten-meter range. It was like the power of a demigod that had nowhere to be released, and it was transmitted through the top of the tower to the entire tower, causing this towering tower to tremble slightly!
Rumble!
At the same time, as Wang Yao's eyes became increasingly cold, the clear sky filled with snow and wind gradually became gloomy. With lightning and thunder, purple arcs of electricity kept running back and forth in the dark clouds, baring their fangs and claws as if the end of the world had come!
Wang Yao hadn't gotten angry for a long time, so much so that it seemed that some people had forgotten that his power was close to the peak of the Wan Gu Chang Ming! In other words, even if the hidden killer move of the East Wind Altar was removed, there were still very few heroes in the world who could compete with him head-on!
On the other hand, looking at Wang Yao's blood-red eyes that were filled with hostility under the mask, Zhuang Zhou, who realized that he was definitely not joking, couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

He is serious.
Indeed, this meeting will fundamentally determine the future direction of the world. Destruction or survival is all in a matter of a thought! So no matter what, Zhuang Zhou will not give up this persuasion that is destined to be hated and despised by the other party.

"You've always been a very calm person. I hope you can be even calmer at this time."

Zhuang Zhou tried his best to look directly into Wang Yao's bloodshot eyes, and said earnestly: "I know you have suffered an injustice, and I also know that you have lost many precious people and things in the past few years. Maybe no matter how much I say now, I can't win your understanding. But, are you really willing to do this? When the whole world is about to face a catastrophe, are you really willing to stand idly by and watch all these people because of personal grudges?"

The world? All living things?

Since the meeting, Wang Yao shouted in a low voice filled with anger for the first time: "Don't talk to me about the justice of the rise and fall of the world. You people from Jixia Academy are the least worthy! Why can you regret it, and I have to give up an individual for the sake of justice? Just because of your words now, do so many people who died because of your willful behavior in Jixia have died in vain?!"

He is like a container that is already filled with morality, righteousness, and profound principles, and can no longer bear more.
So he changed the subject and continued in a hoarse voice: "You can ask me to stop here, but before that, I want to see the mountains of corpses and the sea of ​​blood in Jixia. I want to see all those who fooled the living beings be executed. I want to see the eternal light, and everything will be reduced to ashes! Maybe when that time comes, it won't be too late for you to confess to me!"

".Okay." Noticing the increasingly fierce anger in Wang Yao's eyes, Zhuang Zhou sighed softly.

To be honest, facing these mortal enemies with deep hatred, Wang Yao was able to control his heart and stay rational to listen to everything he wanted to tell. This was already a remarkable strength of mind. Even before coming, Zhuang Zhou had already prepared to bear all of Wang Yao's anger. In the end, this young man did not lose his mind and fight to the death as imagined. This was enough to prove that his character was far beyond that of ordinary people.

And it is precisely because of this that Zhuang Zhou is unwilling to give up, because if Zhuge Liang's prediction is correct, then as the bloodline left over from the Supreme Creator, he will definitely be the son of God who saves the world from disaster, so as long as there is a glimmer of hope, even if he has to give up his dignity as a great sage, Zhuang Zhou will not give up -

"You can ignore the world, you can refuse to acknowledge established facts, and you can even ignore the life and death of anyone, but——"

Facing the sharp sword of Wang Yao, Zhuang Zhou didn't even blink. He said the name of the girl who was deeply engraved in Wang Yao's heart very seriously: "Don't you care about Luna anymore?"

At this moment, the world seemed to have paused. The wind stopped, the snow stopped, and even the fierce aura that permeated Wang Yao paused for a moment.

He was silent for a moment.

Zhuang Zhou continued, "I am the magic teacher of Jixia Academy. Luna was one of my students. Just like I know you, I also know that child very well. She is the most special one among the countless students I have taught. Unlike most stubborn and conceited heroes, she is also like your impression. She is quiet, innocent, kind, strong, like an angel. And unlike you, she has been displaced since childhood. Although she has suffered from the cold eyes and bullying around her, although she has a fighting power no less than most heroes, and although she bears the blood feud of her family, she has never tried to use violence to solve the problem. Even if she is in pain, she always kindly believes in the beauty of this world, just like, whether she is against the world or not, she will always love you deeply. But what about you? As the person she loves most, and the man she is willing to give her life and everything for, are you different from her, just a cold-blooded and ruthless person?"

The world is quiet. At this moment, the wind and snow seem a bit desolate.

Seeing Wang Yao fall silent, Zhuang Zhou's tone softened slightly and he said gently, "It can be seen that her unfortunate departure caused you great physical and mental harm, and also made you what you are today. You should really hate the Master, and even me as one of the three wise men of Jixia. But do you think that the way you are now is what the child wants to see? I think your original intention of trying to change the world also had some factors from her, but what about now? You keep saying that you are doing it for the world, for her who also loves this world, but when the world is really at the moment of life and death, what are you doing? "What? Are you going to do whatever it takes to avenge Jixia, even if you consume the only remaining defense force in the world, and eventually make the world unable to resist the enemy that will bring about the doomsday disaster? You don't have to think about anything else, just think about it, if Luna is still alive, how would she feel when she sees you now? What kind of person does she see? A person who disregards the whole world, a selfish and cold person who doesn't care about any living thing, only cares about personal grudges, and doesn't care even if the world is destroyed in two years! Is this how you repay her after she risked her life to protect you?"

"Shut up!" Suddenly, an angry shout resounded through the platform of the tower and reached the sky.

Wang Yao held up a dark blue sword in his hand and stared fiercely at Zhuang Zhou in front of him, his eyes full of anger!
"How dare you talk nonsense to me here? As Luna's teacher, you are even less qualified to criticize her here! Isn't all this caused by you? Why didn't you investigate it first? Why didn't you disclose all the secrets early on? Why do you have to wait until rivers of blood flow and the point of no return before you stubborn people will compromise and reflect?!"

The most hateful type of person in the world is that person who has never experienced the same pain as you, but always advises you to be tolerant and generous!
"Indeed, I know my current behavior is shameful, and we are unworthy of the title of the Three Sages."

Facing Wang Yao's anger, Zhuang Zhou's eyes once again showed guilt: "Now, I don't want to make any excuses for our actions. We have been burdened with endless blood debts for the past 2000 years, and we have long since repaid them. And one day, when you, the new generation, eliminate us, the remnants of the old era, we will all be nailed to the pillar of shame of human morality forever as you wish. This is a destined future. But no matter what, before ensuring that the world can function normally, one day at a time, we will protect this world in our own way until the last moment. Before that, are you really unwilling to take a look first? See if this world is worth your protection, to verify the most likely truth, to meet the great pioneer who can solve all your confusions, and to save the girl who saved you?"

Wang Yao's right hand, which was holding the sword steadily, suddenly trembled slightly unconsciously.

Zhuang Zhou naturally noticed this one instant detail. "You have tried to revive that child more than once, right? You not only sent Sima Yi to look for the Twelve Miracles, but also sent Zhou Yu. Although they took different routes, they both had a common mission, which was to find Taiyi Zhenren, who was known as the master of alchemy. Unfortunately, they failed. And I can also tell you that Luna's situation is too special. The power of the arrow shot by the Demigod Bow was too strong, and it has completely destroyed her fire center. The conventional methods that can be found on the continent now cannot revive her."

Zhuang Zhou did not say anything final, but used the phrase "conventional means are useless". It must be said that, in a sense, Zhuang Zhou had indeed grasped Wang Yao's weak spot at this moment.
If there is any soft spot in Wang Yao now, it is only here.

Beep. Hiss.
The dark blue light slowly faded away, and Wang Yao retracted the blade of the Void Sword Staff without warning. He stared at Zhuang Zhou silently, and only after a long while did he say in a deep voice, "Is it possible for me to meet her again?"

"Why not give it a try?"

Even though he was one of the Three Sages, when he realized that the deadlock was finally "hopeful" to be broken, Zhuang Zhou's breathing became rapid, and he immediately said seriously: "Although I can't give you any guarantees, this is indeed very likely. If everything is as I guessed, then with the greatness of the Supreme Creator, is there no way to deal with such a thing? What if there is a way?"

Wang Yao was silent again.

There is no doubt that, from an emotional point of view, he really wanted to find a way to resurrect the girl. Even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, he was willing to risk his life to try!
From a rational point of view, if we go to war with Jixia Academy now, we do have a high chance of winning, but it is inevitable that both sides will suffer losses. In this case, if there is really a doomsday disaster, and there are enemies stronger than Jixia Academy, then even if Jixia Academy is abolished now, everything will be meaningless. In this case, instead of fighting with each other, it is better to sit back and reap the benefits.
Before figuring out everything, before confirming whether the Jixia Academy is making up new lies, why not let this Tower of Babel stand for a while longer, until there are no more worries, until the time is right, then -

Behead to kill!
Normally, it is difficult for a person to possess both sensibility and rationality at the same time, especially when he is emotionally unstable. However, at this moment, if someone could glimpse into Wang Yao's inner thoughts, they would probably call him a monster, because this man is of this type, completely different from what he appears to be. In his heart, he will always maintain the best state of mind no matter what the situation is, and he is by no means as superficial as Zhuang Zhou's observation and guess that all his actions are motivated by personal grudges and desires.

finally--

The energy layer that originally covered Wang Yao's body began to slowly dissipate.
"I will go to the Border Lands."

After saying this simply and indifferently, Wang Yao never looked at Zhuang Zhou again. Instead, he turned his back to him and looked up at the strange scarlet color in the distant sky.

The sky, which had been shrouded in gloom due to his outburst of breath, gradually stopped blowing and the snow and dark clouds dispersed.

At this moment, the sun shines down, reflecting on Wang Yao's painful mask, making its hideous outline clearer. In the only pair of resolute and deep eyes that are revealed, there is light, but also a cold darkness that even the sun cannot dispel.
