The Lord of Namo Heaven said, "Over at the Great Powers Institute, there are often some inexplicable decrees. Recently, I also met the envoy from there, who said that the world cannot undergo any more major changes."
"I met him too," said the Lord of Carefree Heaven.
The Lord of Purple Gold Heaven said, "They change their orders constantly; what exactly do they want to achieve? Why have we suddenly been forbidden to attack Pangu World? Destroying the Human Clan, obliterating all hopes of them establishing a dwelling place, wasn't that something we agreed upon from the very beginning?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the Lords of Namo Heaven and Carefree Heaven. The disdain in his eyes was evident, clearly still begrudging the withdrawal of these two great Lords.
"I can't understand why they've suddenly changed their attitude. Though I detest them, I don't believe they would suddenly side with the Human Clan," the Lord of Immeasurable Heaven said.
At this moment, the Lord of Namo Heaven suddenly said, "Actually, in their eyes, aren't we quite similar to the Human Clan?"
The crowd was slightly taken aback.
The Lord of Immeasurable Heaven murmured, "I've thought about this issue before. In their eyes, there's indeed not much difference between us. The Human Clan is an anomaly to them, but aren't we too?"
The Lord of Namo Heaven said, "Essentially, if they truly discover a new means to achieve their desired goal, then they wouldn't mind temporarily cooperating with the Human Clan."
"They want to stop and destroy reincarnation in this world. How could they possibly cooperate with the Human Clan?" the Lord of Purple Gold Heaven said with a frown.
"But now it seems they're looking to develop Pangu World, clearly wanting the Human Clan to take the upper hand in this world again," said the Lord of Carefree Heaven.
The Lord of Immeasurable Heaven nodded, "I'm now very suspicious that the Great Powers Institute is looking to deal with us as well."
"Impossible, right?" The Lord of Purple Gold Heaven frowned, "No matter how you look at it, we have more than half of the runic life forms..."
"The true characteristic of runic life forms is the desire to devour their kind to strengthen themselves. Do you think they are human?" the Lord of Carefree Heaven said, "This is why both the Lord of Namo Heaven and I chose to withdraw! We don't want to end up being their tool, then discarded after they've used us up."
The Lord of Namo Heaven nodded, "Think about it, what fundamental conflict is there between the Heavenly People Clan and the Human Clan? In fact, from the beginning, it was our few Heavenly People Clan ancestors who were plagued by an inferiority complex, wasn't it? We're a new species; in this world dominated by humans, we always felt like outsiders. We thought humans would surely not accept us. In reality, at that initial era, it was indeed that way; many called us mutants. But upon reflection, aren't we? Were they wrong?"
The other three great Lords fell into silence.
After a long period of silence, the Lord of Immeasurable Heaven suddenly said, "That's it. The initial conflict and opposition with the Human Clan stemmed from the inferiority complex belonging to humans within us. The more they looked down on us, the more we wanted to eradicate them all. Even if we couldn't completely wipe them out, at least... turn them into inferior creatures. We did it, and for a time succeeded. Throughout endless ages, the Human Clan was entirely oppressed by us. Thinking about it now, that feeling was indeed exhilarating!"
The Lord of Purple Gold Heaven said, "It was exhilarating."
The Lords of Namo Heaven and Carefree Heaven frowned slightly, both remained silent. Once, they too thought this was exhilarating. But now they have somewhat altered their initial thoughts.
"Exhilarating as it was, the current situation feels very disadvantageous to us," the Lord of Immeasurable Heaven said looking at the other three great Lords, his voice heavy, "So in this matter, we now have two options."
The three great Lords looked at him.
"The first option is... to continue pressuring the Human Clan, continue fighting them, to eliminate them!" the Lord of Immeasurable Heaven said.
"That's impossible," the Lord of Namo Heaven directly opposed, "The Human Clan has now completely stabilized."
The Lord of Carefree Heaven said, "Even if they're not stable, we absolutely wouldn't choose to confront the Human Clan again. In fact, after I returned, I told my decision to the people below, and they were all very pleased. They don't want to fight this war at all!"
The Lord of Purple Gold Heaven said, "We have endless resources, we have countless top cultivators, why don't we dare fight this battle? It's humiliating!"
The Lord of Namo Heaven said, "It's not that we don't dare to fight, but we cannot fight anymore. There's no point. The Lord of Immeasurable Heaven has already understood, haven't you? That opportunity will not come to us. The Great Powers Institute will not give us this chance."
The Lord of Purple Gold Heaven remained silent; among the four great Lords, he should have the deepest prejudice against the Human Clan. This may be related to some experiences from his past, but now they have all realized some issues; no matter what actions they take, in the end, that opportunity might not be theirs to share.
Although the Great Powers Institute has always been incredibly low-key, each of those venerable figures is indeed exceptionally powerful.
The Lord of Immeasurable Heaven said, "Then there's only the second choice left, which is to follow the directives of the Great Powers Institute regarding the actions on the Human Clan's world, to ask no questions and ask nothing more. Even... to cooperate a bit. But I feel, if we are to choose this path, we might as well be more straightforward!"
He looked at the other three Great Lords and said earnestly, "Negotiate peace with Chu Mo, and then cooperate with him! Cooperate with the entire Human Clan!"
"Impossible!" The Lord of Purple Gold Heaven immediately refused: "No matter who we cooperate with, I will never choose to collaborate with the Human Clan! They are the least trustworthy creatures. If we work with them, in the end, we will surely suffer!"
At this moment, the Lord of Carefree Heaven looked at him and asked, "Lord of Purple Gold, I am very curious. Does the half of you that belongs to the Human Clan, in the past... when you were a complete Human, did you ever encounter any setbacks? For example... being bullied by other humans?"
The Lord of Purple Gold's face turned livid, and he did not answer this question. But from his expression, it seemed that the question of the Lord of Carefree Heaven hit the mark.
The Lord of Namo Heaven said, "I think this is feasible. Over the years, through certain means, I have gained some understanding of the Fifth Heaven's Lord Chu Mo. Although he is human, he possesses great tolerance, and his world can accommodate beings from myriad realms. Even the Heavenly People Clan live well in the world of Pangu."
The Lord of Immeasurable Heaven's mouth twitched slightly because all those of the Heavenly People Clan from the Pangu world had defected from his Immeasurable Heaven. Just thinking about it made him angry.
At this moment, the Lord of Carefree Heaven suddenly said, "Yes, I have a daughter who has been wandering in the world of Pangu for many years. Recently, I found out that she is now... the daughter-in-law of Heavenly Lord Chu."
"What?"
"Is that so?"
"Really?"
All three Great Lords looked at the Lord of Carefree Heaven with an inexplicably shocked expression.
At this moment, they didn't seem like three Great Lords, but more like three curious people.
"That's the case." The Lord of Carefree Heaven admitted frankly, "Years ago, I was in love with a woman from the Human Clan, and later we had a daughter..."
The three Great Lords all looked at him with a strange gaze.
The Lord of Namo Heaven whispered, "What a sin... since it's your own flesh and blood, you should keep them."
The Lord of Carefree Heaven smiled bitterly and said, "At that time, it was precisely when we Heavenly People most hated and despised the Human Clan..."
"Heh." The Lord of Purple Gold sneered and mocked, "That is the greatest failing and original sin of humans. They talk better than anyone else, but in reality, the things they do are despicable!"
The Lord of Immeasurable Heaven glanced at him and said, "Those are things of the past. Can you honestly say that you've never done similar things?"
The Lord of Purple Gold immediately closed his mouth. Not only had he done so, but quite a few times! However, not a single one of those "spawns" as he saw them did he leave in this world. In the end, his offspring were all "pure" Heavenly People.
So-called pure, but actually, Heavenly People themselves... are not pure!
The Lord of Carefree Heaven remained very composed and did not mind the Lord of Purple Gold's mockery, then continued, "Therefore, I believe that there is room for reconciliation between us and the Human Clan. Moreover, Heavenly Lord Chu is very methodical in his actions."
"Very methodical indeed, he almost drove my Immeasurable Heaven to collapse." The Lord of Immeasurable Heaven said with a bitter face.
After going through so much, he finally figured out a truth. That is, in terms of combat power, that newly risen Great Lord of Pangu World, Chu Mo, is not much inferior to them. And in terms of intelligence, he is not worse than them either!
This kind of thing doesn't disappear just because you refuse to acknowledge it.
"If it weren't for Venerable Chu Hui leaving the other half with Chu Mo, I don't believe he could have developed so well!" The Lord of Purple Gold was still somewhat unconvinced, with a deep-seated prejudice against the Human Clan. It was hard to change. He sneered at the other three Lords and said lightly, "I am now even suspicious that the other half... is what Venerable Chu Hui deliberately left behind to help Chu Mo! In other words, I don't trust Venerable Chu Hui and neither do I trust that... Elder of Divine Fortune-Teller! They are all beings with rune lifeforms who have had too deep entanglements with the Human Clan, who knows what thoughts lie in their hearts?"
"No matter what thoughts they have, we have already been abandoned by them, and that is an indisputable fact." The Lord of Namo Heaven looked at the Lord of Purple Gold: "Therefore, your obsession with these questions is, in my opinion, meaningless."
The Lord of Purple Gold said coldly, "Even if it means waging war directly with major forces, I will not choose to cooperate with the Human Clan. If you want, then go ahead and cooperate with them. I... will never compromise..."
Just as he was speaking, the Lord of Purple Gold suddenly frowned slightly, as if someone was delivering a message to him.
