Chapter 478: Secrets of the Immortal World
The middle-aged man suddenly looked ferocious and shouted angrily, "What do you know? The justice and evil in your eyes are nothing but what the victors impose on us. What does it matter if I sacrifice you? You are destined to die. It's just a matter of living a few more days."
"The 508 gods of my Divine King Palace were the first to stand out when the demons invaded. Your world, including the lofty fairyland, was saved by the death of our gods."
"But how did they treat us? When they needed us, they respected us as supreme gods, and the entire fairy world respected us. But when we were weak, they found a fault in us, stripped us of our godhood one by one, labeled us as fallen gods, and threw us here to fend for ourselves."
“You said I made a mistake, but do you know where I made a mistake? The God King Palace suffered heavy casualties, and my master wanted to leave a legacy for the God King Palace so that the gods in the God King Palace would not die out. As a result, I became a cowardly fugitive, unworthy of being a god!”
"We are dedicated to protecting the peace of this plane and have tried our best to fight against the demons, but what they want is to overthrow the Palace of the God King and divide up the immortal world. Did you know that a hundred years ago, the last junior brother of the Palace of the God King also came here, and our Palace of the God King was completely cut off."
"We want to return to the fairyland, not only to survive, but also to seek justice. We want to make those people pay the price."
Time seemed to stand still, so quiet that even the sound of leaves falling to the ground could be heard clearly.
Everyone knows that the Fallen Angels are gods who have committed serious mistakes, but no one knows what specific mistakes they have made. Now it seems that they are just victims of the struggle for power.
Bai Ze showed up and said quietly, "The fairy world was originally ruled by gods. The Palace of the Divine King was the largest force among them, occupying half of the land in the fairy world. Now, of the eight major forces in the fairy world, five were once under its command. Even though there are gods who know they cannot defeat the demons and are afraid of fighting, there has never been anyone who colluded with the demons and killed each other. Therefore, many people in the fairy world still respect you."
"But what have you done here? The people in the Immortal Realm don't take your lives seriously, so you treat the people in the Immortal Cultivation Realm as ants. Tell me, how many people have you harmed since you came to this world? And not long ago, you even wanted to let the demons in and let the creatures of this world pave the way for your ascension."
"If you feel that you are complaining about the fate of the Divine King Palace in the Immortal Realm, then is it unfair to call you evil demons now?"
Zhong Ling'er also said: "You were framed, then go and settle accounts with the person who framed you. Why are you venting your hatred on us? You said that the people of your Divine King Palace sacrificed their lives for this plane, how great it is, but I want to ask, what will happen if your master knows what you did today? Is this what your master taught you?"
Ouyang Ruochen said coldly, "If everyone in the God Palace is like this, then the God Palace is nothing more than this!"
The middle-aged man's face flushed, and there was a trace of panic and confusion in his expression, but he still shouted stubbornly, "Don't think of making us feel guilty. If you are unkind, don't blame us for being unjust."
Zhong Ling'er stopped the others who were trying to persuade them. They were gods who had lived for tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years. There was nothing they didn't understand. They just didn't want to admit their mistakes. It was useless to talk, because you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep.
"Release the soul of the Demon Lord and go on your own. From now on, in order to thank the former gods for everything they have done for this plane, if we catch you fallen angels again, we will give you another chance to reform, but only once. If we meet again, we will definitely fight to the death."
After saying that, Zhong Ling'er turned to the others and said, "Everyone, their master gave his life to protect the lives of the creatures in this plane. He just said that his master's only hope is to leave a legacy. So, we will give him another chance to repay his master's kindness. What do you think?"
"Mr. Zhong is right. If that's the case, let him go."
"We don't have an irreconcilable hatred with the Fallen Angels. Although they tried to lure the Heavenly Demon in, they didn't succeed. So what if we give them a chance?"
"To be honest, if they were really harmed by someone, I would really like to see them return to the fairyland and seek revenge on those who harmed them."
"We don't get involved in the affairs of the Immortal Realm, but their teacher has done us a favor, so letting him go this time will be considered as settling the cause and effect. If they bite people again next time, we won't let them off."
Zhong Ling'er made a gesture of invitation to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man stood there with a complicated expression, unable to make a decision for a while.
At this moment, he did not feel much joy of surviving the calamity, but instead had an indescribable feeling in his heart. He did not expect that these people would remember the good things of the fallen gods, which made his feeling that everyone owed him waver.
For a long time, he couldn't tell justice from evil, thinking that all people were selfish, greedy and vicious. But now he felt that justice was always in people's hearts.
Bai Ze said calmly: "The Demon Lord and you are just in a cooperative relationship. Don't you still want to return to the fairyland for revenge? Why risk your life for him?"
The middle-aged man hurriedly dropped a glittering white jade porcelain bottle, then rushed out of the formation and disappeared.
Zhong Ling'er handed the porcelain bottle to Bai Ze, who put it away and then returned it to Zhong Ling'er's sea of consciousness.
Facing everyone's puzzled looks, Zhong Ling'er smiled and said, "Why, you don't trust Bai Ze? It's much easier for him to kill the Demon Lord than for us."
"Haha, how could we not believe in Lord Bai Ze? We just find it unbelievable that he won like this."
"Yes, we really did wipe out the demons, we have to celebrate!"
Zhong Ling'er smiled and waved her hand, and a huge seafood pot appeared immediately. "Come on, let's go and have some delicious food, drinks and fun. We won't leave until we are drunk today."
Everyone cheered, organized themselves spontaneously, took out food and wine, and sat together in groups to celebrate the victory and share their experiences of the battle.
During this time, someone asked how to tell Yuan Ying and Yuan Hui the good news. The intention was obvious. They wanted to let the fairy world know and then put the opening of the ascension channel on the agenda. After all, there were a lot of people here who were undergoing tribulation and suppressing their cultivation, waiting to soar into the sky.
Bai Luochen looked at Zhong Ling'er, asking her with his eyes how she was going to deal with it next. Zhong Ling'er ate the delicious barbecue with a satisfied look on her face and blinked mischievously.
