Chapter 2225 - 2225: A Childish Decision
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In Huangfu Longhao’s opinion, the stronger Chu Yunfan was, the better it would be for the Flying Celestials’ future.
As for the possibility that Chu Yunfan might become a threat to him in the future, Huangfu Longhao had never thought about it.
After all, he had received some information about Chu Yunfan. From the information, he could see that Chu Yunfan had no intention of fighting for power.
Huangfu Longhao had nothing to fear even if he was fighting for power. The person who could guide the future of the Flying Celestials must be the strongest among them. He was confident that he would be the strongest.
He was even known as a prodigy who could stand shoulder to shoulder with the Flying Celestials’ founder. Naturally, he wasn’t afraid of compet.i.tion and comparison.
However, he did not know how powerful Chu Yunfan was. Even though he had already entered the Divine Treasure Stage, he was still no match for Chu
Yunfan.
Of course, Chu Yunfan didn’t say much.
“Senior Huangfu, do you know why the sect master has summoned us?” Chu Yunfan asked.
“It should be related to the return of those ancient forces!” Huangfu Longhao frowned. “At this moment, it can be said that a storm is coming. Those old fellows want to make a move!”
Chu Yunfan naturally knew that the old guys Huangfu Longhao was talking about were the experts behind the scenes of the ancient forces. They could not help but make a move.
Some time ago, many forces had been uprooted by them.
The forces that had been rooted in the area for hundreds or thousands of years were wiped out overnight. Then, they casually entered and opened their gates to recruit disciples wantonly. It seemed that they had the intention of developing again in the current era.
Although only a few radical forces did this, it was a very bad start. Many forces were eager to imitate them. After all, although these ancient forces were powerful and the experts behind them were stronger than one another, they were like rootless duckweed. Their original sects and forces had long been annihilated in the long river of history.
The remaining people were just the remnants of the surviving evil. If they were not careful, they would die and their sect would be destroyed.
This made these people have no choice but to be particularly radical.
Anyone with a little bit of consciousness could sense that an unprecedented storm of change was about to strike.
“l just don’t know what was discussed in this closed-door meeting!” Chu
Yunfan said.
Huangfu Longhao wasn’t sure about this either. The closed-door meeting was of such a high standard that even with the Flying Celestials’ ma.s.sive strength, only three representatives could attend. If the other sects could send a representative, they would be considered as a first-rate force.
Even Chu Yunfan and Huangfu Longhao were not qualified to know what had happened. At this moment, the two of them represented the new and old disciples.
They were the head figures of the sect!
“You two don’t need to guess anymore!”
All of a sudden, there was a spatial fluctuation in the air. A figure appeared before the two of them. The two of them took a look and saw that it was Situ
Xuan.
“Greetings, Sect Master!” The two of them bowed.
Situ Xuan did not stand on ceremony with the two of them. He sat on the main seat and said, “l called the two of you here because it’s an urgent matter, so I did not inform you in advance! If the two of you have any questions, go ahead and ask them!”
“Sect Master, is this meeting related to the closed-door meeting?” Huangfu Longhao asked.
“Correct!” Situ Xuan said solemnly, “l called you here because of the closed-door meeting!’
As Situ Xuan explained, Chu Yunfan and Huangfu Longhao finally knew what had happened during the closed-door meeting. The representatives of various forces fought, and each of them was a top expert of the world. They even used forbidden methods. The more they fought, the more they lost control. In the end, they even exploded the stars. It was extremely terrifying.
In the end, if it wasn’t for the Human King making a move and stabilizing the situation, the old and new sides would probably have fought to the death.
But even so, the forces of the current era were able to gain some advantage, and in the end, they came a basic condition.
“Let the young prodigies decide who wins and who loses?” Huangfu Longhao’s eyes widened. “Isn’t that too childish?!”
Chu Yunfan was also a little stunned. From Situ Xuan’s words, it seemed that the closed-door meeting had only discussed one method, which was to let the young prodigies compete.
If the young prodigies of the ancient forces won, they could take over the territory and resources of the current forces. On the other hand, the ancient forces had to leave unconditionally and could not continue to pester them if defeated.
All the victories and defeats were placed on the younger generation.
Even Chu Yunfan was speechless when he heard this. He felt that this was really childish.
“Childish? Do you think this is child’s play?” Situ Xuan smiled bitterly. “But if not for this childish method, what should we do? Kill them until they die, blood flowing like rivers, and cause the end of the world?”
At this moment, the two of them finally understood why they had made such a seemingly childish decision in the end. It was because they had no choice.
Regardless of whether it was the new or old forces, they were all seeking development, not destroying the entire world.
At the end of the Ancient Zenith Age, the emperors attacked and destroyed the world. Even if it was only recorded in some ancient books, it was enough to make people shudder.
Therefore, they could not allow the situation in the world to develop in this direction.
“His Majesty is helpless. Grand Xia might seem powerful and occupy the wealthiest land in the Central Plains, but if you look around, to the west are the demi-humans, who are irreconcilable enemies of the humans. To the east are the marine folks, who live in the depths of the sea and have a unique civilization. To the north and south, there are barbarians and beasts, and there are even otherworldly demons eyeing us covetously. It can be said that danger lurks everywhere. If we fight until the heavens collapse and the earth shatter, who will benefit the most? In any case, the ones who will suffer the most in the end will definitely be us humans!” Situ Xuan was truly helpless.
Chu Yunfan and Huangfu Longhao both looked solemn, especially Chu
Yunfan. On Earth, all kinds of races were collectively referred to as humans. After the Great Calamity Era, although most of them were Chinese and people from other races survived, there was no longer any distinction between races.
But in the Central Plains, it was completely different. Although the Hus of the north and the barbarians of the south were humans, in the eyes of the people of Grand Xia, they were nothing more than beasts standing on two legs..
