Duanmu Rong woke up.
I'm completely sober now.
Looking at the tall, upright young man in his high position, tears streamed down her face.
Although she had been in a state of confusion, she had memories and knew everything that had happened during that time.
"Shengxiao, you're gone. Have you really left me?"
ah--
She looked up to the sky and let out a mournful wail.
Although I've regained consciousness, my beloved is no longer in this world. What's the point of living?
"Lin Yu, you shouldn't have brought me to my senses. I was already dead; I shouldn't have been alive in this world!"
Duanmu Rong kept sobbing.
When you wake up from your dream, a hundred years have passed since the dream began. Your loved ones are gone, your teachers have left you, and your lover has passed away.
There is no greater sorrow than a broken heart!
Lin Yu sighed and said, "Aunt Rong, please don't blame me. This is a promise I made to Senior Ye, and I must keep it!"
"Furthermore, the extermination of the Yun family has always been a thorn in my side. Although the Yun family is my maternal grandmother's family, they are still my relatives, and I should avenge them! Also, your Duanmu family was also a victim of what happened back then. Don't you want to avenge your clan?"
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, Duanmu Rong's delicate body trembled violently, and she slowly clenched her fists.
Indeed, some hatreds are simply impossible to let go of.
There are some things that must be addressed for the dead!
That night, the only survivors from the Duanmu family were her and Han Ling Shuang.
But Han Ling Shuang was still young at the time, and she only recognized Jiang En Yi.
But they didn't know who else was involved in the alliance.
The massacres of the Duanmu and Yun families took place almost simultaneously, and the perpetrators from both families were obviously plotting together.
"Jiang Enyi, Long Sheng, Murong Haiyun, Shen Shoufu, Shangguan Yue!"
Duanmu Rong named several names in succession.
"That night, I fought to the very end and escaped with serious injuries. If it weren't for the timely rescue by the Tang family head, I would have died during their pursuit. However, due to severe brain injury, my nerves were completely out of control!"
Tang Peng picked up the conversation, saying, "When I picked up Miss Rong'er, that was indeed the case. She was already out of her mind. When those people saw me take action, they stopped chasing after us. But now, recalling the aura of those murderers, they do indeed seem to be the people Rong'er described!"
Lin Yu slowly clenched his fist.
Although I have now attained immortality, love and hate are the only things in the human world that cannot be extinguished.
He slowly rose and stepped off the island.
However, at this moment, a large number of people from ancient martial arts families were already gathering on the sea towards Tangjia Island.
Leading the group were several family heads from the Longming clan, who held the heads of several people in their hands.
Some of them were the very names that Duanmu Rong had just mentioned.
Long Ming knelt down before Lin Yi first, “Your Majesty, twenty years ago, these people did do some foolish things. For the sake of the so-called Immortal Treasure, they framed Yun Lan and murdered the Tang and Duanmu families. But this was not our intention. It was all because these guys were too ambitious. You know, our ancient martial arts families are divided into many factions. Some things were not our intention!”
"Yes, Your Majesty, please understand that this matter has nothing to do with the other members of my family. We have already offered up the bandit leader's head, so please spare our lives!"
"You are the supreme emperor, and we lowly commoners should not dirty your hands!"
The heads of the Shen and Shangguan families also knelt down.
At this moment, everyone from the three ancient martial arts families was trembling with fear.
When Lin Yu stepped onto Tangjia Island, they knew that he would eventually awaken Duanmu Rong and demand an explanation for what happened back then.
Therefore, it's best to make a clean break and hand over those involved in the operation.
However, they were unsure whether Lin Yu would let them go. This man was invincible in the mortal world, and with just a thought from him, their ancient martial arts would be wiped out today!
"Human Emperor, kill them!"
At this moment, Tang Peng and the others also arrived from the island.
"Your Majesty, in your wisdom, such a momentous matter could not have been handled without a decision from the entire clan!"
"No one here is innocent; their entire clan should be exterminated!"
Tang Peng and Tantai Guanlan both expressed their opinions.
They certainly wanted the other three to be wiped out.
Because, with the arrival of the Dharma-ending Age, Earth's resources are being depleted, and secret realms are disappearing one after another.
The fewer families there are, the more resources there will be.
Everyone has selfish desires, and they are no exception.
Therefore, they naturally hoped that Lin Yu could completely destroy the three families and release the resources completely.
At this moment, Lin Yu, however, was somewhat disheartened.
He did not take Tang Peng and Tantai Guanlan's advice.
He originally did not intend to wipe out the ancient martial arts families on this trip.
After awakening, he entered the realm of immortality and gained a deeper understanding of the principles of the universe.
With his current cultivation level, destroying ancient martial arts is just a matter of a thought for him. However, Heaven cherishes life, and as the Human Emperor, he cannot commit unnecessary killings. Otherwise, he will stray far from the Dao and find it even more difficult to achieve the Nine-Nine Body.
Furthermore, from the perspective of the Great Way.
In any era and under any circumstances, there are good people and bad people.
The same principle applies to a family and a region.
Ancient martial arts and divine blood, ruling the North and South, have been rivals since ancient times.
This is in fact in accordance with the Dao, with yin and yang, and the cycle of mutual generation.
It's like the United States and Great Britain, or the East and the West.
Without the yin aspect, the yang aspect would have no meaning.
Every immortal understands this principle.
