"I am no longer an elder of the Flesh and Blood Spirit sect, because the Flesh and Blood Spirit sect no longer exists. Of course, I am not trying to sever ties with the Flesh and Blood Spirit sect. If you want to punish me, then punish me as you wish," Ge Shuyinglong said in a deep voice.
"Then tell me, how should I punish you now?" Ye Feng asked.
Ge Shuyinglong fell silent.
If he could avoid death, he certainly wouldn't want to die, since no one is unafraid of death.
But after considering it for a while, Ge Shuyinglong finally said, "I will not evade the crimes I have committed. If you want to execute me, then I have nothing to say and I will not resist."
“You seem quite at ease now,” Ye Feng said.
Rowling also cast a curious glance at Ge Shuyinglong, as did Zijing and Luo Qing beside her.
Originally, Rowling and Zijing thought that Elder Geshu Yinglong, the flesh and blood spirit, would most likely fight back and try to escape.
But now, not only did Ge Shuyinglong not resist or run away, but he also acted so openly, which made them suspicious.
“When we met in Jiangxia City last time, you acted like a complete madman, but this time you’re so rational. This makes me curious. I want to know what caused this change in your attitude,” Ye Feng asked earnestly.
Ge Shuyinglong sighed deeply.
After a moment, Ge Shuyinglong slowly said, "Because I realized that I was wrong. Not only was I wrong, but we were all wrong."
"When you say 'you,' do you mean all the beings of flesh and blood?" Night Wind asked.
“Yes.” Ge Shuyinglong nodded.
Rowling couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Where did you go wrong?"
"This has to start from the beginning," said Ge Shuyinglong.
"Then start from the beginning. There's plenty of time, no need to rush," Ye Feng said with a smile.
After organizing his thoughts, Ge Shuyinglong finally said, "Do you know the philosophy of our flesh and blood spirits?"
"You flesh and blood spirits are just an evil sect. What kind of ideology could you possibly have? If you insist on saying you have any ideology, then of course it's to dominate the world or even destroy it!" Zijing said nonchalantly.
“That’s not the case.” Ge Shuyinglong shook his head.
After a pause, Ge Shuyinglong said, word by word, "Our ideal as flesh and blood is to save the world and create a new era!"
"What the heck?"
Are you sure?
"Are you kidding us?"
Zijing, Luo Lin, and Luo Qing were all stunned and stared at Ge Shuyinglong with disbelief.
Ye Feng's face showed interest, and he nodded slightly: "Go on, we're listening... Qing'er, don't interrupt him."
Zijing, Luo Lin, and Luo Qing then shut their mouths.
Ge Shuyinglong took a deep breath and said, "Perhaps you think I'm lying, or joking with you, but I'm not. I'm telling the truth; this is the philosophy of our Flesh and Blood Spirit."
"The sect leader of the Spirit of Flesh and Blood founded this sect with the help of a princess from our Divine Sword Empire seven hundred years ago. That princess was Dongfang Yu."
"They created the Spirit of Flesh and Blood to save the world, protect all humanity from the attacks of the Red-tailed Beast army, and usher in a new era."
At this point, Ge Shuyinglong's gaze swept over Ye Feng, Luo Qing, Luo Lin, and Zi Jing in turn.
"But how exactly do we achieve this goal, save the world, and protect all of humanity from the attack of the Red-tailed Beast army?"
Night Wind countered, "Isn't it about eliminating the Crimson-Tailed Beast?"
"This is too difficult."
Ge Shuyinglong shook his head vigorously and continued, "The appearance of the Crimson-Tailed Beast is very strange. Unlike normal beasts that reproduce through reproduction, they seem to have been created by humans, appearing out of thin air, endless and almost without end."
"To this day, the entire Poisonous Plains are the territory of the Crimson-tailed Beasts. We humans can forget about launching a counterattack against the Poisonous Plains. We should be grateful that the Crimson-tailed Beasts are staying in the Poisonous Plains and haven't attacked us!"
"Therefore, with the current strength of our human race, it is impossible to eliminate all the Crimson-Tailed Beasts."
"Under this premise, the options available for saving the world and protecting all of humanity are very limited."
"Our sect leader and Grand Elder, Dongfang Yu, of the Flesh and Blood Spirits sect chose a shortcut."
Ge Shuyinglong stopped there.
"Are you still keeping me in suspense? Hurry up and tell me, or don't blame me for being impolite!" Zijing shouted, hands on her hips.
Ge Shuyinglong glanced at Zijing indifferently before continuing, "This clever method is... to change the life form of our human race through the Divine Art of Flesh and Blood with Spirit, turning everyone into a new life form with stronger adaptability, stronger survival ability, and stronger combat ability."
"In this way, humanity will have a greater chance of surviving the fight against the Red-tailed Beast."
"And that's not enough. If we could use the Flesh and Blood Ghost Divine Art to artificially create powerful, human-controlled demonic beasts, that would be even better."
Having heard what Ge Shuyinglong had to say, Ye Feng finally understood what was going on with the internal strife in the Hongtian Empire.
The Eastern Border rebels collectively mutated into a special kind of red-tailed beast, which was the work of the Spirit of Flesh and Blood.
They conducted a massive experiment using the Eastern Rebels as test subjects, attempting to create a completely new life form!
The Void King Realm demon beast that appeared on the river valley plain was another attempt by the Spirit of Flesh and Blood—an attempt to artificially create demon beasts!
"The collective mutation of the Eastern Border rebels and the Void King Realm demonic beasts are two experiments of our flesh and blood spirit."
"It is obvious that both experiments failed."
"Especially the experiment on the Void King Realm demon beasts, the failure of this experiment dealt a very heavy blow to our flesh and blood spirits."
"Almost all of the hundreds of intermediate and senior members who participated in the experiment were wiped out."
"Sect Master, almost all the elders except me are dead."
"Fortunately, I was sent by the sect leader to carry out an observation mission outside the sect at that time, otherwise I would have died too."
Ge Shuyinglong stopped, sighed deeply, and looked gloomy and dejected.
Night Wind realized something and asked, "So, back then, when you stirred up trouble in Jiangxia City and tried to snatch the Wood Spirit Essence from the City Lord Jiang Zhengzhong, it was all for the sake of a Void King Realm demon beast?"
“Yes, Wood Spirit Essence is an indispensable material for experiments on Void King Realm demon beasts,” said Ge Shuyinglong.
