Chapter 422 Haotian, you deserve to die!
Chapter 422 Haotian, you deserve to die!
The valley was dead silent. More than twenty people surrounded Bai Tian, but no one said a word, not even daring to breathe.
During the day, he didn't increase his power, just a little bit, barely enough to illuminate himself.
He had a very kind smile on his face and looked harmless and easy to bully.
"I want to talk to your leader, is that okay?" Bai Tian's tone was very gentle, and it really had a bit of a soliciting tone.
However, in the eyes of a group of men in black, he now looks a bit scary!
A person in black flew out of the cave. She was a woman, about forty years old.
The woman didn't dare to get close to Bai Tian. She said gloomily from more than ten meters away, "I'm the person you're looking for."
Bai Tian glanced at her and smiled: "Then let's find a place...um, sit on a tree and talk?"
The woman frowned slightly: "You, are you sure you won't kill us?"
Bai Tian laughed and said, "Why, wasn't I clear enough before? I said I just wanted an answer."
The woman was half-believing and half-doubting, but she still flew to a big tree not far away. In a flash, she was already sitting on the tree trunk.
The woman was quite frightened, but also a little helpless.
She stood on another branch, about three meters away from Bai Tian.
Bai Tian leisurely leaned against the tree trunk and asked, "What's your name?"
"Minglan!" the woman replied in a low voice, and finally added, "You have seen my brother, the Mingda who was captured by Cangshu back then."
Insightful?
I remembered the first time I passed by Jicheng, that "believer" who started the war...
Bai Tian asked again, "Are your research results your own, or did you inherit them from Ji Qiong?"
Minglan's cheeks twitched slightly, and her tone was somewhat helpless: "You know everything?"
"Half of it comes from Ji Qiong back then, and half comes from our own research. Before Ji Qiong died, he left behind many books and spirit stone veins."
Speaking of this, Minglan couldn't help but feel angry, "Speaking of which, if it weren't for Li Muyi and his son, you wouldn't have discovered it so quickly."
"No, it should be said that no one expected that you, Haotian, would suddenly appear in Jicheng!"
Bai Tian smiled and said, "I want to know how you achieved the targeted explosion of the spirit stones? Also, what is your purpose?"
Minglan hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "By extracting the blood of the ferocious beast and then wrapping it in a spirit stone, you can achieve a targeted explosion. However, the power is limited."
"As for my purpose, I want to overthrow Zhuanxu!"
There was no incident during the day, and he had long expected that there was a power struggle involved.
"You have another identity in the city, right? I guess someone around Zhang Hui is helping you, but he should be going to the north to fight the ferocious beasts now. If it were me, well, I would probably be injured in this fight against the ferocious beasts." Bai Tian said calmly.
Minglan's cheeks twitched again, and she said stubbornly, "It's... you, you know a lot."
Bai Tian sighed. The era of intrigue has really begun!
In the past, fights were straightforward and people would just do what they said. But now it’s different. There’s lurking, calculation, and even a lot of shady tactics.
But can this be prevented?
"So you want to dominate the Nine Provinces and become the leader?" Bai Tian sighed softly.
Minglan frowned. "Struggle for hegemony? I don't know what that means. What I want, no, what we want, is just to follow a different path from Zhuanxu."
"What we want is to build a world that Ji Qiong envisioned back then. In that world, people should not be bound by constraints and can do whatever they want. Everyone shares everything, and no one controls anyone else..."
I was stunned when I heard it during the day. Is this, an ideal country?
Is it possible for everyone to be equal and free from constraints?
Minglan continued, "Although it may not be possible in the short term, we believe that it will be realized in hundreds or even thousands of years."
"We can use the power of spirit stones to do anything, and we humans just need to think about what we like to do every day..."
Bai Tian couldn't help but ask: "Have you ever thought about what if someone is born to like killing?"
Minglan was stunned: "How is that possible? Everyone is born with the sole purpose of wanting to live a good life."
This answer left Bai Tian speechless. They were thinking too simply!
"The state you describe is impossible to achieve, because humans are advanced animals with desires. Where there are desires, there will inevitably be struggle. Where there is struggle, absolute equality and freedom cannot be achieved."
"That's because you don't understand!" Minglan actually became a little excited. "Ji Qiong's idea can't be wrong, it's you who are wrong!"
"You simply can't understand, because you are Haotian, the high and mighty Haotian!"
Okay, another crazy one!
Bai Tian didn't argue with her, but looked into the distance calmly.
Minglan gritted her teeth and said gloomily, "Haotian, you shouldn't have appeared. You should die!"
Bai Tian's cheeks twitched slightly, and he looked at her strangely with his head tilted to the side.
Minglan mustered up all her courage: "You shouldn't have existed a long time ago. Even if it weren't for our plan, but for the current Jiuzhou, you shouldn't have existed... No, it should be said that you should only have existed in the past."
"You are powerful, high above everyone else, and possess a prestige that no one can challenge. Yet, you are not someone in power. Your mere presence will only terrify those in power!"
"Only after your death can everyone achieve true equality. At that time, all children born will be raised by everyone together. Then, we humans only need to study spirit stones and other things to make our lives better."
These words surprised Bai Tian for a moment. He suddenly remembered what Ji Jun had said before, that Zhuanxu was deliberately weakening his connection with him.
Haotian, high and mighty, frightens those in power...
Bai Tian's mind suddenly trembled, and he finally remembered what "Jedi Tiantong" meant.
Gather the royal power!
She was right. The concept of "Haotian" had transcended humanity. Everyone who saw him had to kneel on one knee and shout "Haotian forever." This was actually a kind of divine authority.
The conflict between divine power and royal power, and then the connection between heaven and earth, and the separation of man and god...
"Haha..." Bai Tian laughed inexplicably and shook his head helplessly.
It seemed that not much had changed. Although the current Kyushu civilization was more advanced than expected, it could not escape this cycle.
Power is such a wonderful thing.
Minglan thought he was starting to get angry, and her heart instantly rose to her throat, and she dared not breathe.
Bai Tian looked up at the deep night sky and sighed, "You really reminded me. But the future you talked about will never exist."
"It will definitely exist!" Minglan gritted her teeth firmly.
Bai Tian shrugged and said, "Then tell me, is human nature evil or good?"
Minglan was startled, her lips trembling as she tried to say something, but when the words reached her lips, she didn't know how to say them, and was stunned for a moment...
