Yes, time and time again, the problem of the Startling Sparrow Terrace was deeply imprinted in his heart, which was why it caused him to have mental problems.
He had seen through many things,
The Tianyuan Universe, the Spiritualized Universe, the Nine Clouds Universe, many things had been answered. Hong'er's matter had always been suppressed in her heart, so naturally, she had to get an answer.
But..,
Was it just that?
"Are you a Red Coat under the Stars?" Lu Yin asked in a deep voice.
Hong'er coughed a few times,
She slowly stood up,
She looked at Lu Yin with a bitter expression, "Master didn't tell you because he didn't dare to tell you that I'm a Red Coat under the Stars, a human civilization that was abandoned by your human civilization, a human civilization that was destined to be destroyed and could have been saved. This is a Red Coat under the Stars. Are you satisfied with this answer?"
Lu Yin looked at her in a daze, "What abandoned?"
"The human civilization is not only the three universes that you know. There is also our universe, which was found by Master a long time ago.
However, he abandoned our civilization because of past hatred and left our civilization to fend for itself. If it weren't for a coincidence that one of Qixu's seven emotions happened to pass by our civilization, I wouldn't have been brought here. I would also be a part of the human civilization that was heading toward destruction. "
"Is eternal life heartless?
How could Master watch the entire human civilization perish and not save us?
Mr. Lu, can you answer me now? Is eternal life heartless? "Hong'er shouted at the top of her lungs. Her voice was so shrill and sad.
She was weeping, shedding tears, and shouting for her civilization.
Lu Yin did not believe it. He did not believe that Qinglian Yu would ignore the destruction of an entire human civilization. He did not believe it under the premise that he had the ability to save it.
He knew too well how well Qinglian Yu treated him.
How could he be such a person?
"Senior Qinglian is not such a person."
Hong'er said bitterly, "You just haven't seen the other side of him."
Lu Yin narrowed his eyes, "If that's the case, why did he ask you to tell me?
He could have stopped it. "
Hong'er closed her eyes, "I don't know, but I'm telling the truth. You can ask him yourself."
Lu Yin turned around and left. He teleported and appeared not far away from Qinglian Yu, looking at him.
Qinglian Yu had his back to Lu Yin, looking at the sea of Ye.
The two of them did not speak. They were silent,
After a long while,
Qinglian Shangyu turned around and looked at Lu Yin: "What she said is true."
Lu Yin looked deeply at Teal Lotus Emperor, "Why?"
Qinglian Yu said indifferently, "There is no reason. Giving up is giving up. There is no reason."
"Hong 'er said that Senior was doing this for the sake of past grudges. What sort of grudges would make Senior abandon the entire human civilization?
Most of the humans are innocent, but you're giving up on them. That's not something you would do, "Lu Yin said.
Qing Lian Yu smiled. "Don't ignore human nature just because others treat you well. I'm also human. I have my grudges, grievances, and hatred. I'm the one who treats you well, and I'm also the one who gave up on human civilization. There's no conflict."
"You can go back. I'm going into seclusion."
Lu Yin still wanted to say something, but the Azure Lotus Emperor had already left.
Today's events had completely overturned his previous understanding of the situation. If not for Qinglian Yu's own admission, Lu Yin would not have believed that he would do such a thing.
According to Red 'er, once the human civilization of the Red Specter under the Stars was abandoned, they would not be far from extinction. When Red' er was brought to this human civilization, the Red Specter under the Stars civilization might have already been destroyed.
Destroying an entire human civilization and leaving it to fend for itself when he could have saved it was not something Qinglian Yu would do.
Lu Yin was not someone who liked to force others, unless the other party was an enemy. However, Qinglian Yu was different. He was not an enemy, but Lu Yin had to force him this once.
Qinglian Yu looked at Lu Yin, who had appeared in front of him once again, and said helplessly, "I don't want to talk about this anymore. You can go back."
Lu Yin said in a low voice, "Please tell me, Senior."
Qinglian Yu said, "Lu Yin, have I ever let you or the Tian Yuan Universe down?"
"Never."
"Since that's the case, no matter what I've done, it has nothing to do with you. Don't ask anymore."
"Please tell me, Senior."
Qinglian Yu frowned and looked at him. "I haven't let you down."
Lu Yin said, "I believe that you haven't let down the Red Specter under the Stars civilization either, so please tell me."
Qinglian Yu placed his hands behind his back. "You don't have to speak up for me. Abandoning them is abandoning them. I could have saved them, but I didn't. I allowed them to self-destruct. This is what I've done. Perhaps you find it hard to accept, but this is the truth."
Lu Yin looked at Qinglian Yu. "If this matter cannot be explained, my state of mind will not be able to overcome it, and the human civilization will lose an eternal life."
Qinglian Yu stared at Lu Yin. "This has nothing to do with you. Why do you have to involve your state of mind?"
"If it really has nothing to do with you, why didn't you stop Hong 'er from telling me about this?" Lu Yin retorted.
Qinglian Yu wanted to say something, but he could not. In the end, he could only sigh.
Lu Yin just looked at him.
After a while, Qinglian Yu took out an ancient jade stone and threw it to Lu Yin. "Take a look at it yourself."
Lu Yin looked at the jade stone. After a while, his expression kept changing. Sometimes it was anger, sometimes it was sorrow, and sometimes it was desolate. After reading it, he almost crushed the jade stone.
"Is this real?"
Qinglian Yu looked at Ye Hai. "This is the only record of the human civilization on our side."
Lu Yin's gaze was complicated as he looked at the jade stone. It recorded the words left behind by the ancestors from a long time ago. There were not many words, and some of them were not even coherent. However, he could roughly understand them.
The human civilization on their side was abandoned.
"Hate, hate, hate. Why is it us?
We shouldn't die. It shouldn't be us. "
"How many missions have we completed for the … You lied to us."
"All of you should die. Let's die together."
"All of you deserve to die. All of you deserve to die more than them …"
The legacy of the jade stone was very old. The ancestors who left behind these words were so old that they could be traced back to the Nine Bases Civilization. There was a mention of the Nine Bases, but the nine had been blurred. There was only one base.
Before this, Qinglian Yu might not have known about the Nine Bases. Now, he knew.
The Nine Bases Civilization was at its peak. However, when it was weakened and defeated by the enemy, it used the humans on their side as bait and abandoned them. Most of the people on the Nine Bases Civilization escaped.
"If it was discussed, it would not be a big deal. However, were the words of the ancestors discussed?
They were deceived and abandoned. The Red Specters under the Stars were one of those who abandoned us. "
The Blue Lotus Regal Ruler's tone was low. "In the end, I do not know how our human civilization managed to survive. It must have been our ancestors who fought their way out, and the Ninth Base was defeated. So what if the Red Coats under the Stars were powerful? Now, they can only be abandoned by me.
He looked at Lu Yin. "There was also a mural that was passed down at the same time as this piece of jade. It recorded the scenes of countless ancestors dying in battle. It recorded their hatred, resentment, and unwillingness. You won't be able to see it, as that mural can't be preserved for that long. I've only seen it once, and I've merged my consciousness into it."
Lu Yin's body trembled. No wonder Qinglian Yu's hatred towards the Red Specters under the Stars had not reached the level where he would abandon them. The true hatred came from that mural.
Lu Yin had merged his consciousness into the Karmic Sea mural and experienced Qinglian Yu's ignorant love. He had also comprehended the Karmic Wall. He knew all too well how real it felt to merge with a mural.
Qinglian Yu had merged his consciousness into an ancient mural, which meant that the hatred he felt was exactly the same as the ancestors who had been abandoned and deceived.
It was not Qinglian Yu who had abandoned the Red Specters under the Stars, but those ancestors.
The hatred had been passed down through the mural.
No one had the right to forgive on behalf of the ancestors, and Lu Yin did not have the right either. He was also from the side of the human civilization that had been abandoned.
No one spoke, and there was silence.
"Senior, do you regret it?" Lu Yin suddenly asked.
Qinglian Yu closed his eyes and did not answer.
Not answering was the truest answer. He had once abandoned the Red Specters under the Stars because of the hatred that had continued. Now, he regretted it.
"I'm also human, and as a human, I can't really abandon my emotions and desires. Whether I regret it or not, it's all in the past. The human civilization under the Red Specters under the Stars has completely disappeared. I've looked for it once, but it's gone."
Lu Yin said, "I'd like to look for it again."
Qinglian Yu shook his head. "Although you have the gift of teleportation, you need to see it first. If you could see it, I would have found it long ago. That human civilization should have been completely destroyed."
With a bang, the jade stone shattered.
Qinglian Yu looked at Lu Yin's hand.
Lu Yin let go, and the jade stone turned into dust.
Qinglian Yu did not say anything. The past grudges had been written off. Jiu Lei had abandoned them, and he had also abandoned the Red Specters under the Stars.
"What else does Senior know about Jiu Lei?"
"I don't know. The information about the Third Stronghold came from you. Your master's universe is the Ninth Stronghold, and he also found out about it through you. The Red Specters under the Stars belong to the Second Stronghold, and the Seven Treasures Heavenly Toad mentioned the Seventh Stronghold. There's also a giant candle that the Seven Treasures Heavenly Toad mentioned. It should be a Stronghold as well."
Lu Yin looked into the distance. "What about Ruby?"
Qinglian Yu said, "Don't worry about her. I know that she hates me for so many years."
"Senior, you're keeping her alive not because of Qiu Xu's emotions, but because …"
"Lu Yin, have you ever wanted to completely destroy a region or a family?"
Lu Yin nodded without hesitation. "Yes."
"Have you done it?"
Lu Yin did not answer. Not only had he done it, but he had also completely controlled his enemies, such as the Sylvan Dragon and the Daynight clan. Too many organizations had been destroyed by his hands, and he had no right to criticize Qinglian Yu, nor did he intend to do so.
Qinglian Yu had said so much because it was a human civilization that had been abandoned, and that was a civilization.
However, if one were to talk about who was right and who was wrong, the destruction of a civilization was impossible to determine.
Qinglian Yu could admit that he was wrong, but Lu Yin had no right to criticize him. If Qinglian Yu had to choose between the spiritualized universe and the Tian Yuan universe, he would have chosen to abandon the spiritualized universe as well. When a person had to make a choice, right or wrong no longer mattered.
It could only be said that Qinglian Yu did not represent himself at that time, but also the ancestors who had hated the Jiu Lei civilization.
The hatred of their era could not be forgiven by the current era.
