"You're right. Different races have different beliefs and ideologies, and over time, conflicts can easily arise!"
Lin Yu did not deny what Xu Huailie said.
But he added, "But soon, our entire world will face an unprecedented war, from which no one will be spared. Therefore, all nations must unite to resist this war; otherwise, we will vanish like sand in the wind!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned and felt it was unbelievable.
Xu Huailie frowned and narrowed his eyes, saying, "Young man, are you referring to the calamity of death?"
The heads of the other families were also startled.
The word "death" is undoubtedly a taboo for them.
Ordinary people don't know what a death calamity is, but they know it perfectly well.
"Since you already know, I don't need to say anything more!"
Lin Yu said calmly, "This world is vast, but also fragile! Once the calamity strikes, all your so-called power and status will vanish into thin air. At this point, why remain so stubborn? Next, we should all unite and fight against this unprecedented disaster!"
"This is alarmist!"
Xu Huailie immediately interrupted him, coldly saying, "At the ends of the world, there are still many powerful figures from the Ruins of Return fighting on the front lines. If disaster is about to strike, why haven't they sent any news?"
"Besides, twenty years ago, your Huaxia's number one expert, Ao Shuang, had already obtained the Nuwa Stone, returned to Guixu, and blocked the void! Only twenty years have passed, the sky won't fall down!" Xu Huailie insisted on his opinion.
Lin Yu shook his head. "This time is different. The Tribulation of Death comes every ten thousand years, but this time it's not just a Tribulation of Death, but a Great Tribulation! They are busy dealing with it in the Ruins of Return, so you naturally don't know. Besides, even if they told you, what could you do?"
Lin Yu said calmly, "Everything in this world is trivial except for life and death. And life and death are determined by the human heart. Now, whether it's the Chinese world or this Bingdong City, both are showing signs of decline!"
What are the signs of decline?
"People's hearts have changed; they chase fame and fortune. In this corrupt and evil world, greed burns fiercely!"
"Heaven, earth, and humanity are one. If people's hearts are evil, heaven and earth will also be evil. The more advanced technology becomes, the more riddled the world becomes, and all prosperity will be a false illusion!"
"When everything is no longer pure, any amount of embellishment is nothing more than boiling a frog in lukewarm water, deceiving oneself!"
"Now that I have come to this unknown land, I will change everything, restore light to this world, and let love shine upon the entire earth!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a faint white light suddenly emanated from Lin Yu's body.
An aura of peace yet immense majesty emanated from it.
Even he himself couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
The aura of the emperor is gradually increasing!
Originally, he was still missing the last bit of the "Nine-Five Qi" (a concept in Chinese astrology). He stepped out of the Antarctic ice wall and came here to gather the "Nine-Five Qi" and achieve the "Nine-Nine Body" (another concept in Chinese astrology).
At that moment, he suddenly understood.
The final breath of the emperor was not in the external world, but within his own heart.
This is a commitment, a responsibility, and a merit.
He must use what he has learned and understood to verify his own path.
This final step is the process of actual practice and verification, the process of attaining enlightenment.
It is also called achieving sainthood through merit!
However, just as he released this aura, the people in the city seemed to feel an inexplicable tremor, and they all knelt down, their eyes filled with excitement.
"Your Majesty!"
The old elf's eyes gleamed with golden light. He used a forbidden technique of his race to glimpse a corner of the future, and immediately his eyes bled, almost blinding him.
He knelt down on the spot and uttered words that belong only to the Chinese people.
That's right, Your Majesty!
The emperor is the ruler of China, a king who stands shoulder to shoulder with heaven and earth and is revered by all three realms!
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
All the people knelt down in worship.
The more ordinary a person is, the purer their heart. They felt the kindness and peace emanating from Lin Yu, and bathed in that light, their eyes filled with tears, deeply moved.
"What are you doing? Get up! Get up!"
"In Bingdong City, you can only pay homage to the city lord and the five great families. Get up!"
The five major families couldn't sit still any longer.
This is undoubtedly a challenge to their authority.
If the people of Bingdong City no longer worship the five great families, who will they be able to rule and enslave in the future?
This was undoubtedly something that terrified them.
A fat patriarch, a master of the Profound Realm, decided to intimidate Lin Yu. He immediately drew a long, gleaming sword and slashed at Lin Yu.
call out!
A strike from the Xuan Realm is no joke; this slash cleaved through the void.
It appeared directly above Lin Yu's head.
However, Lin Yu did not make a move; he simply stood there quietly.
The long sword melted instantly and turned to ashes the moment it came into contact with the three-inch-wide white light surrounding Lin Yu.
The fat old man's eyes showed fear. He never imagined that such a gentle light could have such great destructive power.
He hurriedly let go and tried to back away, but it was too late.
Just because his sleeve was slightly touched by a bit of white light, his arm instantly melted, then his shoulder, and then his fat face.
Even as half his body disappeared, his facial expression still showed terror.
Impermanence arrives in an instant, leaving him no time for regret.
Wow!
The other half of his body instantly turned to ashes and disappeared as well.
silence!
No one in the room dared to utter a single word.
Even the usually imposing city lord Xu Huailie couldn't help but twitch his brow.
The last person he had encountered who was this strong was a woman named Ao Shuang.
That woman, dressed in white, with an exquisitely beautiful face, stood atop the city wall.
That was the first woman he had ever seen, a woman he desperately wanted to conquer and possess.
She was eager to return to the immortals, but he wanted to keep her there.
The conflict erupted, and the opponent only drew one sword.
He spent twenty years recovering from his injury on his own.
He knew that the other party had shown mercy, and that the other party was far superior to him!
However, this young man seemed stronger than Ao Shuang! He even lacked the courage to make a move!
The powerful figures from the five major families, ranging from the Profound Realm to the Martial Saint, all stood there trembling in fear.
For the weak, compassion is a sure-fire weapon.
For the strong, conquest is the only way to succeed!
In the blink of an eye, Lin Yu completely won over everyone with his absolute strength and his benevolent heart.
"Xu Huailie, what else do you have to say?"
Lin Yu asked calmly.
Xu Huailie's body trembled, he grabbed the gorgeous robe, and with a whoosh, he took it off, presented it with both hands, and slowly knelt down.
This is the etiquette of Bingdong City.
The city lord's actions signify submission.
This also means that from now on, Lin Yu is the city lord of Bingdong City!
