Volume 2, Chapter 149: The Continuation of Hatred.
Everyone was stunned. They were not sure whether what Ye Tingmu said was true or false.
But the legendary Ye Tingmu is a famous killing god.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he killed people like crazy.
The number of saints who died at his hands was in the double digits, and if the others were added together, it would probably be close to 100,000+.
Although it doesn’t seem like much, don’t forget that he is only 26 years old this year.
Since I was born at the age of 21, I have been walking and killing all the way.
It can be said that there is not a single person who has gone against him and is still alive today.
Therefore, when Ye Tingmu said this, they were more or less skeptical.
"Really? I can go too."
Someone asked.
Ye Tingmu waved his sleeves.
"Of course, I keep my word. But if you don't leave, I have something to say to you. Are you willing to listen?"
"You tell me, we'd like to hear the details."
"Then please stand up and listen to me in detail."
Everyone stood up, their eyes always on Ye Tingmu.
At this moment, the panic and sadness of defeat were gone in their eyes.
Some are full of anticipation and curiosity.
They were waiting, waiting to see what Ye Tingmu would say.
Ye Tingmu raised his head and looked at the sky at a forty-five degree angle.
Youyou said, "Heaven and earth are not kind, and treat all things as straw dogs. Humans and monsters have intelligence, and they go against the will of heaven to cultivate immortality. They will naturally encounter the thunder tribulation of the great way, and they can become immortals by overcoming it."
"But in my East Sea, in the past three thousand years, no one, not even a demon, has entered the Three Days."
"As for why, you all know it clearly. It was because someone blocked my path to immortality in the East China Sea from the Three Heavens."
"I just said that this battle is not your fault, but it is not my fault either. It is God's fault."
"Why would the heavens want to destroy me? Haha... God knows, but think about it, why would you kill me?"
"There are only two reasons: one is revenge, the other is becoming an immortal. Is that right?"
After saying that, he looked at the people in front of him.
The saints looked at each other and nodded.
Seeing this, Ye Tingmu continued, "Have you ever thought about the cause of the hatred?"
Faced with this question, no one answered. Everyone knew that the hatred between the Seven Kingdoms and Kyushu originated ten thousand years ago.
As for the hatred with Ye Tingmu, if we have to talk about it, it originated from Wanshou Mountain.
The scene remained quiet.
None of the beasts behind Ye Tingmu said a word, not even making a sound. They were all waiting for Ye Tingmu to continue.
They were very curious as to why Ye Tingmu said this, or rather, what was the point of talking so much nonsense with them now that they had already won.
They didn't know what his meaning was, and they couldn't guess, so they were very curious.
In the silence, countless pairs of eyes were focused on Ye Tingmu.
Ye Tingmu glanced at everyone again.
"You don't say it, but you all know that your hatred with Jiuzhou originated from the battle ten thousand years ago. But I want to ask you, who of you has witnessed or participated in that battle ten thousand years ago? Who of you truly understands the cause and effect?"
"I can tell you responsibly that none of you know why. Because those who participated in that battle have been dead for many years. The grass on their graves is probably three feet high."
"Some people will ask what the history books say. I can only say, haha, take out the history books of the eight countries and put them together, there are eight versions."
“It is often said that history is written by the victors.”
'But in my opinion, there are no winners in war.'
"Did Jiuzhou win that battle? The answer is a definite no. Even if they did win, it wouldn't matter. Over the past ten thousand years, both the Chao clan and the people of Jiuzhou have still lost their lives in that war. The Chao clan was almost wiped out."
"Did you win? No, because this war has never ended."
"I think everyone can understand what I'm saying. Isn't the hatred between you and me caused by this dispute that has lasted for ten thousand years?"
"Everyone, let me ask you, in these ten thousand years, besides your Seven Divine Kingdoms, how many people have been innocently dragged into this fight, and how many people have died because of this dispute?"
"Ask yourselves, is all this worth it?"
Facing Ye Tingmu's series of questions.
Everyone was silent, and they even lowered their heads unconsciously.
Is it worth it? No one knows, but revenge is inevitable.
How could they explain clearly the conflicts between countries?
Ye Tingmu continued. He asked them questions not because he wanted them to tell him the answers, but because he wanted them to ask themselves.
Fall into self-denial.
"Someone just asked me, will I really not kill you? My answer is definitely no!"
"As for why, it's simple. I want to end this dispute."
"You and I both know very well that if I kill you, what will happen? Will everything be over?"
"In my opinion, it won't happen. I can kill you, but I can't kill the whole world. When the time comes, your descendants will inherit this hatred, just like the war between Jiuzhou and the ancestors of the empires ten thousand years ago."
"Hatred will continue, wars will continue, and people will continue to die. Let me ask you, do you want your descendants to continue to die for such meaningless hatred?"
"Or in other words, do your dead ancestors want to see their descendants, generation after generation, die in this meaningless battle?"
"As long as people have hatred in their hearts, they can never be conquered, and the killing will only continue and never end!"
The logic that Ye Tingmu said was very simple, and they could all understand it.
Perhaps the saints are not very touched by all this.
But for those extraordinary people and those who are in a trance, the feelings are the most profound.
Most of them were probably only in their twenties, and some were even participating in the battle with Kyushu for the first time.
This was also the first time they saw Ye Tingmu, whom they were about to conquer.
Do they have a deep grudge against Jiuzhou? Or has Ye Tingmu hurt them?
No, there is only hatred inherited from our ancestors.
They have never seriously thought about why they do this or whether it is worth doing so.
Never.
Because ever since they could remember, their fathers and their history books had told them that they had a grudge against Kyushu.
The fight continues until death.
This kind of education makes every generation of them make killing the people of Jiuzhou Chao clan their lifelong pursuit.
It also became the pillar of their belief in continuous efforts and strengthening.
When hatred becomes a nation's belief.
Then there would be no need for a reason to kill.
There will be no burden.
Instead, it will become an honor.
While satisfying your own inner sense of accomplishment, you will also be admired by others.
One day, when they become saints, ancestors-like beings, they will pass on this will.
The new generation will become like them, and the cycle will repeat.
"When will the cycle of revenge end? Forgive others when you can."
