Chapter 1324 The reason for the mutiny
It is conceivable how painful he felt when Qi Tian Sword Emperor asked this question.
It was him who led Yi Qing to join the alliance of the six great saints;
It was him who watched Yi Qing stab the betrayal blade into his heart;
It was him who foolishly witnessed Yi Qing pushing everyone into a desperate situation;
He has been suffering from the great pain brought by Yi Qing's betrayal for the past 800 years, so Qitian Sword Emperor will have this question. He wants to figure out why Yi Qing betrayed his tribe members!
"I have not betrayed my race! My heart is always with humans! It's always there from beginning to end!" Faced with the questioning of Qi Tian Sword Emperor, Yi Qing was very calm, answering as if he was eating and drinking water.
"You liar! In order to join the Heavenly Court and become the sixth emperor in the Heavenly Court, you also want to join the Gods List and become the lackey of the Heavenly Court! You betrayed all of us six. You are just a vain woman. What qualifications do you have to say that your heart is with us humans!" Yitian almost shouted out from his throat.
"I don't need to lie to you. My heart is always with humans. I do this for humans!" Yi Qing sighed, his tone became slightly relieved, and he asked the Emperor of Qitian Sword, "Your Majesty Qitian, I ask you, if we really defeated the Heavenly Court 800 years ago and killed all the Emperor of Heavenly Court, what can we humans get?"
"Of course it's freedom! Leaving the control and brainwashing of the Heavenly Court, we will regain our own freedom!" Qi Tian Sword Emperor replied without hesitation.
"But after defeating the Heavenly Court, do we really have freedom?" Yi Qing asked back.
"..." Yi Qing's rebellious question made Qi Tian Sword Emperor choke for a moment, and waited for a while before answering, "We can rebuild Yanjing City. With Yanjing City, we will be free!"
"Even if we defeated the Heavenly Court and rebuilt Yanjing City, what can we do?" Yi Qing then asked in a questioning manner. "We are just back to the previous time. All humans continue to hide in Yanjing City, looking at the Yuan bandits raging outside in fear."
"Our sword holders will also return to the previous time and fight endlessly with these Yuan enemies for thousands of years!" Yi Qing pointed his finger at the other six non-human saints. "The moment we defeated the Heavenly Court, these four people will turn the spear head in an instant, aim the attacking blade at us, and completely strangle us, just like the five Heavenly Emperors did to me!"
"No...No...How could we do this..." After hearing Yi Qing's words, the other four great saints waved their hands quickly and denied them. However, judging from their embarrassing expressions, they really had such thoughts in their hearts at the beginning.
After all, the alliance between humans and the Yuan gang was only forced by the situation, because of the existence of such a huge creature as Heaven.
If the Heavenly Court falls, humans and Yuan Kou will immediately return to their mortal enemies, and there is no friendship to talk about.
"No problem... Even if the four of them dare to take action, the three of us united together, and I still don't know who destroyed who!" Qi Tian Sword Emperor said unwillingly.
Indeed, Yi Qing can deal with the six great saints with his own power. If Qitian Sword Emperor and Pingtian Sword Emperor stand beside Yi Qing, the remaining four great saints will never be Yi Qing's opponents.
"These cunning humans..." Hearing Qi Tian say this, the other four Yuan Kou Dasheng, who were a little ashamed, immediately clenched their fists, and cold sweat appeared on their foreheads. Yes, if they dared to take action behind their backs, they would probably be the four of them who died.
"Then even if we kill four of them, what can we do? The dimensional cracks will continue to appear, and the new Yuan Knights will enter this world, but our life span is not endless. Even if we can suppress the heavens and give humans freedom when we are alive. But when we die, Yuan Knights will come back and humans will never get real freedom!" Yi Qing's words made Qi Tian Sword Emperor and Pingtian Sword Emperor fall into deep thought. They have to admit that what Yi Qing said is indeed reasonable.
"So when I discovered the truth about humanity 800 years ago, I thought about it for a long time and found that what humanity needs is not freedom, but security... Security is always above freedom, and this is the most important thing! If human beings have no life, what else should they do for freedom?"
"Next I discovered that in fact, humans brainwashed in the Heavenly Court have not only lost a certain amount of freedom, but are unexpectedly safe. The Heavenly Court will no longer kill humans. Instead, they can provide humans with a relatively safe area, so that humans can escape from the protection of the city walls and obtain personal freedom and security within a certain range. This is what humans really need."
"Later I realized that the Heavenly Court is not actually an enemy of mankind, but can serve as a protector of mankind. As long as the Heavenly Court has a strong enough power to expand to the entire earth, human freedom and security can also extend to the entire earth. What humans need to pay is nothing more than some meager price and faith."
"I have consulted the information before the Great Destruction. On the earth of the Middle Ages, humans lived in such a world of mixed humans and gods. The gods were highly worshipped by humans, and humans could obtain relative security by praying for the protection of the gods... This model has lasted for thousands of years in the Middle Ages. Humans themselves have long been accustomed to this model. Countless humans in the Middle Ages were pursuing the ultimate of life such as feathering and ascension to immortals. Those gods did not cause any harm to humans, but instead protected the entire human being. Isn't this the most suitable way for humans? Isn't it a way to give humans the greatest security and freedom?"
"What I did is just to let humans return to the mixed life mode of humans and gods in the Middle Ages. And as long as I can join the Heavenly Court and become the Central Houtu Emperor below one person and above ten thousand people, I can also obtain eternal life. As long as I am in the Heavenly Court for one day, I can protect humans for one day, protect humans from being exploited and oppressed by the Heavenly Court, and protect the safety of the entire human being. This is the true way of safety and eternity of human beings!"
"So in order to realize my dream, I need to join the Heavenly Court, gain the trust of the Heavenly Court, and become one of the supreme beings in the Heavenly Court, so I need to use your lives to prove my value... Even if I sacrifice the only two sword emperors of our humanity, I will do whatever I want!"
Speaking of this, Yi Qing's words finally ended. All the six great saints were in silence, and the one who was most at a loss and most confused was probably the two sword emperors, Qi Tian and Ping Tian.
They believed what Yi Qing said very much, because in their hearts, they always felt that Yi Qing was also a woman who fought for humanity. She would not betray the entire human being for personal gain, but they couldn't figure out what the reason for Yi Qing's betrayal was from beginning to end.
Now that they heard Yi Qing's words, they finally figured out this point and knew why Yi Qing betrayed... At the same time, although they were a little reluctant, they vaguely felt that Yi Qing was right, what she said was indeed the best destination for humans, and she betrayed them for humans.
Thinking of this, Pingtian and Qi Tian felt that their minds were in chaos. They didn’t know what to say, they didn’t know what to do, and they didn’t know whether to treat Yi Qing as a friend or an enemy.
So, the entire underground palace fell into silence, and no one stood up to break the silence until Gu Han spoke.
"What about now! Qing'er, do you still have the same idea as before and want to establish a theocracy society in the Middle Ages?" Gu Han stood up leisurely and asked Yi Qing.
"No! I figured it out. At that time, I was still too naive and thought that establishing a theocracy society could allow humans to have a stable life, but I forgot one thing!" Yi Qing replied.
"What have you forgotten?" Qi Tian Sword Emperor raised his head and asked.
"I forgot that our ancestors had worked hard to free themselves from the theocracy of the Middle Ages and gain freedom of thought and will, and in just a few hundred years it surpassed the development of mankind for thousands of years."
"The theocracy society may have its benefits, but it is also like a shackle, which will firmly lock humans. Although humans can get security, they will lose the possibility of development and forward forever. My behavior may get temporary benefits, but in the long run, from thousands or tens of thousands of years later, humans will extremely hate me, the ancestor who puts shackles and shackles on them."
"Whether suffering or death, these are the tempering that humans must go through. Once humans can break free from such a tragic world and eliminate all their opponents, humans will be able to break out of the cocoon and be reborn. Just like the huge changes brought to mankind by the first industrial revolution, humans will enter a new era!"
"Yi Qing!" After hearing Yi Qing's words, the Qitian Sword Emperor and Pingtian Sword Emperor instantly became extremely excited. He looked at Yi Qing with a bright look, with an expression that was completely convinced by Yi Qing... Yes, the Qitian Sword Emperor and Pingtian Sword Emperor were completely convinced by Yi Qing's words. They took the initiative to stand beside Yi Qing and stretched out their right hand to Yi Qing, while Yi Qing fired his bow left and right, holding the two hands at the same time, and holding them firmly together.
"What should we do? We seem to have a powerful opponent like humans!" The remaining four Yuan Kou Dasheng said to each other with a wry smile and vigilant look on their faces. At the same time, they began to observe the surrounding environment and wanted to find a way to retreat... If Yi Qing and Qi Tian and Ping Tian join forces, they will have to deliver dishes!
"You four, don't leave! I have something to say to you!" Yi Qing discovered the actions of these four great saints and took the initiative to walk in front of them, while Qi Tian and Pingtian followed Yi Qing silently, just like Yi Qing's subordinates.
"I plan to destroy the Heavenly Court!" Yi Qing said lightly, "I need your strength. I can use my sword marks to swear to you that after the Heavenly Court is destroyed, as long as you four do not attack humans, the three of us will not attack you either. I said that the three of us will die in the end, and all of this is the world of latecomers. Let our descendants deal with you four!"
"What you said is true! You really won't attack us?" Hearing Yi Qing say this, the four great saints immediately asked impatiently. What they fear most now is that Yi Qing wants to kill them... Such fear is even greater than the fear of the Heavenly Court.
"Of course! As long as you are willing to join forces with us to destroy the Heavenly Court!" Yi Qing said.
