1201 Rather Than Ask the Bell, Its Better to Ask the Sword (2)
At this point, the school head decided to go all out. He stood up and pointed at the Human Emperor in the sky while shouting at the students below.
Tell me, why is the Human Emperor Mystic War called the Human Emperor?
Back then, the Ancient Sovereign Mystic Nether was the sovereign of all races, but why was he called the Human Emperor as well?
Because were humans!
Regardless of the past or the future, we are all humans. This is the soul, this is the heritage, this is the ideal, this is the civilization, this is the will, and this is also tradition.
As for the fragmented-face in the sky, it has brought endless suffering to our human race and is our lifelong enemy. If we compromise, how can we justify to those countless people who have died from mutation over the years?
This is not the righteous path; its a path of deviation!
His tone was filled with heartfelt anguish, and his words resonated throughout the academy, stirring waves of thought among the students. Especially the two questions regarding the term Human Emperor, they forced people to delve deeper into contemplation.
The entire Imperial Academy became quiet.
The Human Emperor closed his eyes.
The Divine Fusion Schools school head frowned under his mask. His gaze landed on the Variant Immortal Schools school head. He once again sensed how difficult it was to deal with this small fry that he originally didnt take seriously.
After a long time, the Principal asked the third question.
What is the righteous path?
This time, just as someone on the Divine Fusion Schools side was about to speak, the Divine Fusion School Head raised his hand. He looked at the Variant Immortal Schools school head and spoke calmly.
The righteous path is the orthodox path and also the path of justice.
My Divine Fusion School is worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of the human race. Although we merge with divine parts, we adhere to the righteous path. But your Variant Immortal School is cruel and malicious, tormenting our own kind and absorbing their souls for cultivation. This is common knowledge.
You kept on speaking about the human race and its soul, but you are just a hypocrite.
Variant Immortal School is not worthy of the righteous path.
These words were spoken in a calm tone. Coupled with the matter of the Variant Immortal School, they formed an extremely lethal force, causing the words of the Variant Immortal Schools school head that made people think deeply to instantly weaken.
Can words from an unrighteous person be considered righteous?
The Divine Fusion Schools school heads words cut to the heart.
The students of Imperial Academy all lifted their heads and looked at the school head of the Variant Immortal School. The various forces outside also sighed one after another.
The case involving the Variant Immortal Dao seed was extremely vile, which turned the words of the Divine Fusion Schools school head into sharp blades.
The Variant Immortal School Head opened his mouth, but he didnt know what to say.
He wanted to refute, but in the end, he could only remain silent. This was because even he had no way to defend himself against the massacre caused by the Variant Immortal Dao seed. During the period when the school was sealed up, his heart was similarly shaken.
Although this Dao discussion had only gone through two segments, at this moment, no matter what the Variant Immortal School said, it didnt seem to have much convincing power.
The Principal also sighed with emotion. At that moment, his gaze swept across the surroundings. Just as he was about to speak, a cold voice rang out from the crowd.
The words of an unrighteous person are naturally not righteous, just as improper methods mean the school is also improper.
Xu Qings voice echoed in all directions. Under the surprised gazes of the surrounding students, he walked into the air.
His sudden appearance instantly attracted the gazes of everyone here as well as the various forces outside. The Human Emperor, who had his eyes closed, opened them.
As numerous divine senses locked onto him and gazes stared at him, Xu Qing walked onto the Dao Platform of the Variant Immortal School step by step.
The Variant Immortal Schools school heads breathing became hurried as he looked at Xu Qing. He was a little stunned and puzzled. He naturally knew this disciple but it was also because he knew him that the feeling of unfamiliarity became increasingly intense.
He never expected that this disciple named Xuan Leizi would walk out at this moment and say such words. All of this made him feel a little dazed.
In the end, this daze turned into intense anticipation and guesses.
As for Xu Qing, who was standing on the platform of the Variant Immortal School, his gaze was calm as he looked at the black platform of the Divine Fusion School. His gaze swept past everyone and finally landed on the Seventh Prince.
The eyes of the Divine Fusion Schools school head narrowed slightly as he stared at Xu Qing. A familiar feeling surfaced in his heart.
As for the Seventh Prince beside him, although he didnt feel that sense of familiarity, he felt an intense sense of danger. As Xu Qings gaze swept over, it erupted in the Seventh Princes body and affected his mind.
This lasted until a cold voice rang out from Xu Qings mouth.
Regarding the matter of the Variant Immortal Dao seed, I ask all the students and His Majesty to bear witness.
Xu Qing slowly spoke. He then lifted his right hand and gently pinched the jade token in his hand.
Immediately, the jade token emitted rays of light. These lights intertwined in the air and outlined a scene.
The scene showed a secret cultivation chamber in which a person was cultivating.
This person was the Seventh Prince.
Surrounding him were countless human souls, numbering no less than several million.
Among them were old and young, male and female, the vast majority of whom were ordinary people. They wailed, cried in pain, and begged for mercy, yet the Seventh Prince remained calm, showing no hint of pity. With each breath, he drew these souls of his fellow humans into his mouth.
Slowly chewing, he used the technique of the Divine Fusion School, using the souls of his fellow humans to break through the bottleneck of his own Divine Fusion art, allowing him to more rapidly assimilate more divine materials.
This was clearly extremely beneficial to him. Hence, there was actually a hint of joy in his expression.
When compared to the crying despair of the surrounding human souls, this scene... was shocking and heinous!
This jade token wasnt an ordinary item. Not only did it imprint the image, but it also retained the aura. It could withstand any method of verification. It was also because of this that the evilness of this scene was extremely clear.
The minds of every the students in Imperial Academy rumbled. Their eyes turned bloodshot and anger rose rapidly, causing the sky and earth to change color.
The various forces outside instantly fell into an uproar as they realized that heinous crime... was actually committed by the prince.
The degree of wickedness soared even more as it was committed by a member of the imperial family.
The Human Emperors expression also darkened. A cold intent spread out from him and enveloped the entire Imperial City. In an instant, the sky outside darkened, and thunder roared across the world.
The Seventh Prince trembled however he tried his best to maintain his expression. He stood above and calmly spoke.
Father, this image is fake. Someone forged this!
I am willing to prove myself with the Immortal Inquisition Bell. The person in this image isnt me!
The Seventh Prince looked calm on the surface but his heart was trembling. No matter how freely he acted in Fenghai County, after he returned to the Imperial City, fear and panic yet occupied everything in front of the Human Emperor.
But since Xu Qing had appeared at this moment, he naturally wouldnt give him any chance to turn the tables. With a wave of his hand, the student who was parasitized by the shadow appeared.
Before he could speak, Xu Qing raised his hand and slapped his forehead. Instantly, the images from the mans memories began to rapidly form in the air.
Everything that happened in the house that day appeared in everyones eyes.
The storm rose again.
A cold glint appeared in Xu Qings eyes. Amidst the rumbling of the storm, he looked at the school head of the Divine Fusion School who was staring at him.
Who is poisoning our race?
Who is devouring human souls?
Whos talking rashly?
Xu Qings voice was low. His three sentences shook the world.
The Variant Immortal Schools school head was extremely excited. As for the Divine Fusion Schools school head, he cast a deep glance at Xu Qing and fell silent.
The Seventh Prince stared fixedly at Xu Qing. With a sway of his body, he flew into the air and knelt toward the Human Emperor in the sky, speaking loudly.
Father, someone is plotting against me. Please grant me a chance to prove my innocence. Under the Immortal Inquisition Bell, I can prove everything!
In the projection of the palace in the sky, the Human Emperor looked at the Seventh Prince coldly and spoke in a deep voice.
Approved.
His voice was similar to an imperial edict. His words always held sway, however today... was different from the past!
Xu Qing took a step forward and his voice echoed.
Theres no need.
Rather than asking the bell, its better to ask the sword!
As he spoke, Xu Qing lifted his right hand and pointed at the sky.
Emperor Sword!
