"Of course I want to ask the high priest if he can undo the curse on those villagers?" Yu Ling said bluntly.

"What if I say I can't?" the high priest said with a faint smile.

Yu Ling was silent for a while, and when he was about to speak, the high priest swung the tea in the cup again and asked quietly: "I'm very curious. You don't seem to be the kind of good old man who sacrifices himself for others. Why are you so persistent about the curse?"

"What the high priest doesn't know is that the Nine Realms Competition is being held outside. The task I received is to undo Shen Yefeng's curse." Yu Ling said calmly.

The high priest seemed to have heard some funny joke. He covered his lips and laughed so hard that his whole body trembled. It took him a long time to calm down, and he said half mockingly and half teasingly: "When did the king of a clan fall into such a state? The so-called Nine Domain Competition,

So what if you don’t participate? Are you like those common people who want to fight for some false fame? "

"It doesn't matter whether you are ranked high or low, but I can't accept being forcibly eliminated by someone operating behind the scenes." Yu Ling was not annoyed at all.

"That's true. With such a tricky task, it seems that you have offended some important people, right? If it were me, I wouldn't be willing to suffer a huge loss in silence." The high priest Feng Qingyun said calmly.

"So the high priest would like to help me?"

"Then let me tell you straight away. Of course it's impossible to help you for free, but if you can show enough value to make up for our losses in unraveling the curse, we might as well talk about it."

The high priest held his pointed chin with his other hand, and suddenly the conversation changed: "Do you know why we, the Black Cloud Clan, put a curse on those people?"

"Is it related to Fan Yaqi?" Yu Ling asked tentatively.

"Oh? It seems that you still know some inside information, so I won't make too many detours." A layer of cold frost gradually appeared on the high priest's face, and he said lightly: "Fan Yaqi's mistake was that he shouldn't have beaten Ye Mengling.

idea.”

Night dreamer? What is this?

A person? A thing? Or something else?

Fortunately, the next sentence of the high priest revealed the answer: "God-level spiritual weapons are certainly attractive, but if you are going to die to enjoy the blessings, then you might as well put away your greed, don't you think?"

The high priest gently put the tea cup aside and said coldly: "Long before we moved from the God Realm to Chenye Mountain, this land gave birth to Night Dream Spirit. She should be one of the first ones to appear in the world.

She is a god-level spiritual weapon, and we asked her to become the guardian spirit of our clan, but she longed for freedom and refused us without hesitation."

"In the words of you humans, it's really like drinking wine as a penalty. Since she longs for freedom so much, we must imprison her here, and she will not be able to escape for eternity."

Yu Ling couldn't help but frown, feeling that Ye Mengling was really unlucky to meet the Black Cloud Clan who refused to reason with her.

"Only the strong will dominate the heaven and earth. This is the most basic law of operation in this world. It is the same as the law of the jungle and survival of the fittest. If it were you, you obviously have the ability to possess a god-level spiritual weapon, but you would let it go.

Is the whiteness slipping away from your eyes, letting it chase ridiculous freedom?" The high priest glanced at him gently.

Yu Ling couldn't help but ponder for a few seconds. If it had been before he met the mirror demon, he might have had the same idea as the high priest. After all, the god-level spiritual weapon was born from the creation of heaven and earth. Only by taking it to fight and kill would it be considered complete.

Its use.

But the story of Bian Changzhen and the Mirror Demon made him see a different world.

From the perspective of the god-level spiritual weapons themselves, how do they hate being enslaved and controlled by others? Any intelligent life with intelligence will instinctively crave freedom and do what they like without restraint.

.

Even spiritual weapons are the same.

Once they have thoughts and wisdom, they are no longer just cold, unconscious and dead things.

So Yuling replied calmly: "If it were me, I would respect their choice."

The high priest looked at him with a ridiculous expression, as if looking at a madman.

"They are also complete lives and should be respected by other lives." Yu Ling said calmly.

The high priest said in disbelief: "It's unbelievable that you would say such innocent and ridiculous things. Your hands must be stained with the blood of many people, right? Why don't you respect their lives?"

"Respect and whether to kill are two different things. The high priest may never understand. I will not offend anyone unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will get rid of them. But no one is a so-called bad person who is bad from the beginning to the end.

We have different interests, so we have different positions. I respect my enemies, even if I kill them, I still respect them. There is a difference between giving someone a pleasure and wantonly trampling on his dignity in front of other people.

."

The high priest shook his head and did not answer.

Yu Ling added: "Or to put it another way, we killed a strange beast to eat meat. This is the so-called law of the jungle. It is the most instinctive need of living creatures. There is no need for any moral condemnation. But if the strange beast is captured

, imprisoning it, whipping it, abusing it, training it into a tool for people's pleasure, and letting it live in endless pain and torture. This is fundamentally different from directly killing it."

"Are you mocking what we did to the Night Dreamers?" The high priest narrowed his eyes.

Yu Ling looked at her calmly without any flinching.

A deep gloom appeared on the high priest's face, as if a volcano was about to erupt at any time, exuding suffocating depression.

The spiritual oppression of soul masters is often more severe than that of cultivators and warriors. Yu Ling's soul power in the middle stage of spirit transformation is no match for the high priest, and he is completely suppressed in the soul sea and unable to move.

Just when Yu Ling thought she was about to rebel and take action, the high priest suddenly calmed down and all the pressure dissipated, as if nothing had happened just now.

"What an interesting human being. I seem to understand why you became the king of the Shahun Clan." No emotion could be seen in the deep eyes of the high priest.

"I'm somewhat convinced by you, but it's not up to me to decide whether to let her go or not," the high priest said calmly.

Yu Ling couldn't help but be startled. He subconsciously thought that the high priest was the supreme leader of the Black Cloud Clan, but if he thought about it carefully, there should be a king of the Black Cloud Clan, right?

"Okay, let's get back to the topic." The high priest paused for a few seconds and continued: "If Fan Yaqi only wanted to capture Night Dreamer, the most we could do was kill him, so as not to plant the Red Nightmare Curse on his entire family. But

He was really too cunning and cunning. He first showed his kindness to our clan and paralyzed the clan members at that time, and then took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness and took Night Dreaming away by force."

The eyes of the high priest flashed with a cold light: "However, he was greedy and snatched away the relics of the gods. That king used his life as a guide to burn the power of the relics of the gods, and burned Fan Yaqi into ashes.

Ashes. When he was dying, the king asked the whole clan to pray together and planted the most vicious Red Nightmare curse in our clan."

"Because of the loss of the relics of the gods, we have completely lost the last protective power of the Cloud God, and the fate of our clan has been severely damaged. This hatred and hatred are not enough to let Fan Yaqi's people live in despair and pain for generations to come.

Dissolve!”

Yu Ling was silent. She didn't expect that the truth of history would be like this. It was Fan Yaqi's greed that caused hundreds of years of misfortune and disaster to the villagers.
