"Yes, it is."

Lu Qingchen shook his head and sighed. "I swear that I can guarantee for my teacher Li Yao with my life and soul that he has always believed in his justice and courage, and that he has been fighting for his home, his country, his civilization, and all human beings selflessly. If there was a need for sacrifice, he wouldn't even blink, even if his body and soul were to be shattered.

"But he never figured out one thing—he was an anomaly, a weirdo, a freak, and a Child of Destiny born from the destiny of the entire universe. Everything that happened to him was definitely not a universal truth.

"He defeated all his enemies with 'courage, hot blood, and justice' and survived countless perilous situations, not because 'courage, hot blood, and justice' really worked, but because of him. Because he was lucky enough to be the 'Child of Destiny'!

"Yes. Under his leadership, our nation, our civilization, can shout slogans such as 'Cultivators are the sabers of the civilization of mankind, and the blood of the strong must flow for the weak', which are enough to make one's blood boil. They will march forward unstoppably and crush all the enemies. But—but it is not because of the slogans. It is really a spell that boasts ultimate strength. It is because the slogans came from his mouth. That's all!

"It's a pity that everyone, including my mentor Li Yao himself, has been blinded by his glamorous victories and paralyzed by the miracles one after another. The morale-boosting slogan has gradually become the truth, luck has become inevitable, and 'justice' has become invincible magical equipment.

"The problem is, as strong as he may be, he cannot exist forever. My teacher, Li Yao, will die one day. He will grow old, dry up, and leave.

"Even if he can hold on for a long, long time, there is still a limit to the Child of Destiny. No matter how good his luck is, it will eventually run out. If he continues charging blindly like a blind horse, one day, he will lead our civilization to crash into an iron plate that cannot be broken through by 'justice'. By then, he and everyone else in our civilization will realize that they are just donkeys that have run out of tricks. Other than shouting and kicking, they have no other abilities at all.

"Today, Li Yao can lead our civilization to raise the flag of 'bravery and justice' and create an unprecedented glory. Tomorrow, he will lead the same civilization, raise the same flag, and rush to the abyss of destruction at the highest speed with no brakes, to the inevitable doom!

"By then, the more people praise him today, the more people will smash him tomorrow. The halo of heroes on his body will be shattered, and the crown of supremacy will be rusted by billions of people. He will turn from the 'great rescuer' into the most sordid devil, the culprit of the destruction of a civilization, and the symbol that is a hundred times more evil than the Black Star Emperor or the Blood God. He will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history forever!

The more Lu Qingchen spoke, the more excited he became.

Tears of excitement and anxiety were blinking in his eyes that were so big that they were almost deformed.

"I love Li Yao, and even more so, I love the pure hot blood, justice, and courage in his body. It is precisely because these things are so childish, foolish, and naïve that they are as fragile as glass buds in the dark and cruel universe. They are all the more worthy of our tender care."

Lu Qingchen wiped his tears and smiled. "That's why I have to be Li Yao's enemy. Only in such a way can I save him."

Gus blinked hard.

He could not understand the logic of the devil at all.

"The same example. A village surrounded by vipers.

Lu Qingchen explained to the young man patiently, "If all the villagers have been motivated by the 'hot-bloodedness, courage, and justice' of the 'snake-fishing hero', and you are the only one who is clear-headed, and you love the 'snake-fishing hero' so much that you don't want to see him and the villagers fall into an abyss beyond redemption, how are you going to save him and the village?"

Gus frowned. Pondering for a long time, he hesitated and said, "I… stopped them from hitting the snakes and tried to explain to them that the snakes were venomous and not something that could be killed so easily.

"Does it work?"

Lu Qingchen said coldly, "Our lucky 'snake-fishing hero' can reveal the seventy to eighty wounds on his body that were caused by vipers and tell everyone that being bitten by vipers is not fatal. As long as they persist in 'justice and courage', not only will they be immune to all kinds of poison, they can even benefit from it and strengthen their bodies!

"Besides, time is of the essence. The mood of the villagers has been triggered, and they are now in the 'mass hysteria' state. Nobody will listen to an insignificant guy who claims to be sober.

Gus shook his head. "I don't know."

"The only way is to tell you. Listen carefully."

A mysterious smile appeared on Lu Qingchen's face as he said, "The only way to stop the villagers from going out and committing suicide is to catch a few venomous snakes. Then, find a few ordinary children and put them on their bodies so that the snakes can bite them to death."

Gus was dumbfounded. "What—what?"

"You heard it very clearly."

Lu Qingchen opened his hands and said, "Catch a few vipers and bite a few children to death. Although it is a bit simple and crude, is there any way to let everyone know the truth that 'snakes are poisonous and biting people will kill you'?

"Yes. Of course, a few innocent children will die miserably. But they are going to die anyway. If they don't die in the village, they will die in the mountains outside. Chances are that they will die even more miserably. They will be bitten by thousands of venomous snakes and die without a complete corpse!

"In the meantime, more villagers will be saved when they are clear-headed. Our hot-headed 'snake-fishing hero' will be able to calm down a little bit. Chances are that he will be able to make room for something other than hot-bloodedness, courage, and justice in his deformed and swollen brain. In the end, his reputation will be saved.

"This is a happy ending.

"As for the guy who released the snake, I'm afraid his ending won't be very pleasant, but it doesn't matter. Just like my teacher is willing to sacrifice for the civilization of mankind at any time, I'm willing to die for my dear teacher Li Yao at any time!

"Just like that, I willingly degenerated into a devil. I captured a lot of vipers and prepared to bite some villagers to death. I used this method to let everyone realize the danger of vipers and the uselessness of justice.

"Of course, I don't want the villagers to hide in the small village forever. I just want to tell you that vipers are really dangerous. If we have to break out of the place, we need to make more preparations. We need to conduct all kinds of experiments and study countless vipers. We need to even turn our own blood into highly concentrated venom in order to march into the perilous outer domain. We don't need to think that we are invincible and invincible just because of our ridiculous courage and justice.

"The awkward part is that I was discovered by my professor when I was releasing the snakes.

"Well…" said Gus.

Lu Qingchen opened his hands indifferently. "It can't be helped. We can only fight until one of us dies."

"If that's the case, can't you explain it to your professor?"

"Do you think that the Child of Destiny, who was born by the destiny of the universe and never tasted failure, can really listen to other people's opinions and reflect on his fatal shortcomings?

Lu Qingchen pursed his lips. "More importantly, we are all adults. I want my face, too. You want me to pour out my admiration and love for him in front of him and protect his heart even if I have to die a miserable death? That's too corny. I don't want that!"
