Chapter 1005: Killing the Surrendered

Now, Yuxu Palace is also plotting against the human race and came to say hello to him.

Why do the disciples of Yuxu Palace seem fake? Because everything turns into the opposite when it reaches its extreme, and great loyalty can seem like treachery.

For example, what kind of person is Liu Bei? Regardless of whether it was false or pretentious, he never failed to live up to the brotherhood.

There are many people who have lost the world for a woman, and there are many people who have abandoned their brothers for the world, but she is the only one who lost the world for her brother.

Murong Ji came back to his senses and said slowly: "Xuanyuan."

He looked up at Guang Chengzi and asked with a half-smile, "Which one do you guys... like?"

Guangchangzi was silent for a moment, then asked again: "Brother, please tell me clearly, is Xuanyuan the reincarnation of the demon emperor Jun?"

Murong Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, laughed twice, but did not speak. Dealing with such a person, he could not bear to deceive him, so he simply kept silent.

Guang Chengzi frowned, thought for a while, and finally sighed: "To be honest, Senior Brother, I don't have much affection for Di Jun. He is too overbearing."

"Then can you interfere with Yuxu Palace's decision-making?"

Guang Chengzi's face froze, and he said in frustration, "No."

"What are you talking about? Hurry up, who did you choose?"

"It's Xuanyuan too."

Murong Ji nodded. He had been paying attention to Xuanyuan for a long time. In all aspects, he was much better than the other two.

This excellence does not mean that he is better at fighting than Chiyou, nor that he is better than the second generation of Yan Emperor.

But in terms of being a king, although he is a little immature now, he still possesses some kingly qualities.

He is born convincing, which is the aura of a king. He doesn't make things complicated. As long as people are willing to listen to him, that's it.

In Murong Ji's opinion, no matter how many times Xiang Yu came back, he would never be able to gain the world.

Because he doesn't know how to compromise, let alone balance. Everything in the world, like cooking a fresh fish, which one doesn't have to be handled with great care?
Ethnic governance is not a simple matter. If it is dealt with solely by force, it will restrict the development of the entire ethnic group.

The Wu Clan is a good example. If it weren't for the appearance of Hou Tu, and the twelve ancestor witches had one brain, the Wu Clan would have been defeated quickly.

By the same token, compared with others, Xuanyuan appears to be exceptionally outstanding.

Guang Chengzi was silent for a moment. The whole reception room was unusually quiet. Both of them were thinking quietly, thinking about the key to the matter.

Suddenly, Guang Chengzi said calmly: "Brother, this Xuanyuan is not the reincarnation of Di Jun."

Murong Ji was stunned, a little surprised, "How did you see that? Is it so obvious?"

Guang Chengzi smiled confidently: "Compared to that person, Xuanyuan is a little weak. When it comes to handling various things, he seems a little immature and is far less experienced than that person."

Murong Ji sneered but did not deny it.

The reason why the sacred is called sacred is that after practicing to a certain level, it will naturally manifest itself as sacred.

Many things cannot be concealed, just like a piece of finely carved jade, if you throw it back into a pile of stones, you can still see it at a glance.

A quasi-saint is a being who has already engraved many things in his soul and on the avenue.

Even if you lose your memory, many things will reveal themselves naturally.

For example, many of Hongyun's qualities were revealed in Shennong and Yun Zhongzi.

Murong Ji frowned, "You better think about it, the entire underworld is behind Chi You, and they will confront Hou Tu."

Guang Chengzi breathed a sigh of relief. "This is the third reason why I came here. When Senior Brother fights the man from the underworld, you will stand on our side, right?"

"I stand on the side of the human race."

Guang Chengzi smiled and nodded, "Since Junior Brother Yun Zhongzi returned from Qingyun Mountain, he has been thinking about the scenery here."

"Especially the chaotic aura that has been refined here. It is said that it can improve one's physical fitness and original essence. I would like to try it."

Murong Ji immediately raised his head and shouted towards the door: "Chang Qing, take this Uncle Guangchengzi and find a place to stay."

"Yes, master."

A response came from outside the door. Chang Qing pushed the door open and bowed to Guang Chengzi: "Uncle Master."

Guangchengzi nodded, turned around and bowed to Murong Ji, then followed Chang Qing out.

Murong Ji put down the teacup silently, looked out the window, and couldn't help feeling a little melancholy.

"We have finally come to this point."

He had expected to compete with Hou Tu a long time ago, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Huaxu Country, Youhun Pass.

This is the place that was built by the Human King Jiang in order to block the monsters in the East China Sea. Like Chentang Pass, they serve as a support for each other.

Once the sea monster is pacified and the North Sea is pacified, this place will seem less important.

After a great war, countless humans were killed and wounded.

Xuanyuan was half floating on the water's edge, looking at his own reflection in the water. His miserable appearance made him feel a little amused and helpless for a moment.

But my heart was filled with sorrow.

Turning around, he saw that the inadequate number of soldiers he had brought with him were all wounded, with only a few thousand left. Most of the tens of thousands of troops had surrendered to Chi You's subordinates without authorization.

In the army, people highly respected Chiyou's military achievements and reputation for prowess and bravery.

Compared to Xuanyuan, who did not make much contribution to the human race, they were more convinced of Chiyou, a great general of the human race with outstanding military achievements.

Xuanyuan was a little confused for a moment and didn't know what to do.

Chi You had followed successive kings, had fought in many wars and was very experienced, so how could he be his opponent?
"Your Majesty! Chi You is chasing us!"

Xuanyuan was horrified and flew to the top of the city wall in a hurry. He saw Chiyou's tens of thousands of troops rushing towards them outside Youhun Pass.

He felt a little panicked for a moment, but then he calmed himself down and watched the siege on the city begin below.

The siege and fighting continued for several days.

After Chiyou withdrew his troops, Xuanyuan breathed a sigh of relief. When he spread out the map and looked at it, he felt a sense of respect in his heart.

"The ancestors created the level, and the location was chosen perfectly!"

However, even if Chi You died at Youhun Pass, he could not reach the capital of Huaxu Kingdom, which gave Xuanyuan a chance to catch his breath.

The following months were a bitter battle, and Chi You had no choice but to retreat.

Xuanyuan led his army back to the capital in a mess, but he still had to force a smile and not commit suicide, which was his only remaining dignity.

After resting for several days, the first court meeting was held. Xuanyuan stood in the hall, feeling a little confused. He felt that all the ministers below seemed to be making fun of him.

But I feel helpless.

The kings who came to power in successive generations were all those who had made great contributions to the human race. How many of them, like Shennong, made great achievements after coming to power?
For a moment, Xuanyuan himself suspected that Shennong had chosen the wrong person.

After a long silence, Xuanyuan came back to his senses and said loudly: "Let's start the meeting!"

After a great defeat, Xuanyuan felt that all the officials were a little out of shape and did not say much.

When the court was about to end, Xuanyuan suddenly said, "Do you think this is a dispute within our human race?"

"No, this is a question of whether the power of the human race will fall into the hands of others."

"If Chi You comes to power in the future, do you think he will be from the human race or the witch race?!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the court looked stern and extremely quiet, with everyone having various calculations in their minds.

But if it really comes to the point of human survival, it will involve their most fundamental interests.

If the human race is no longer human, or is no longer their human race, what else can they do?

"My king, Chi You has been loyal to the First Human King since he started his campaign, and has experienced tens of thousands of deaths. I'm afraid... we are overly suspicious, right?"

After the voice fell, someone else spoke up: "Even if this is possible, we must be on guard. Now, they dare to question the king's authority..."

The man looked around and continued, "How can you not revive the witch tribe? Have you ever seen that most of the witch tribe are half-witches, and how many are human?"

At this time, someone else jumped out and said, "It is recorded in the classics that the Wu Clan is xenophobic. It is obvious! In the past, they were suppressed by successive human kings, so they naturally did not dare to show any intentions. But now... they are..."

Xuanyuan secretly let out a breath. It was not that he was overthinking, but it was also selfish of him. But in reality, what was the truth?

It is no longer important whether Chi You and others have the intention to rebel. What is important is that the power of the human race cannot fall into the hands of others.

After a court meeting, officials from all departments became more focused, recruiting soldiers and preparing for war, ready to meet Chiyou's army again.

A few days later, a message came back from the battlefield and went straight to the royal city.

Chi You, kill the surrendered!

All the captured soldiers had their heads cut off, put them in a cauldron and cooked, and then shared the food with everyone.

The boiled heads were placed in front of the tent door, piled into two large piles.

If people of this era knew one word, they might be even more resentful.

Jingguan!

The Jingguan is made of human heads.

For a moment, it was like a stone thrown into an already calm lake, splashing not ripples but huge waves.

Conquests between human races have always attached great importance to population, and human kings of all generations have resolved disputes by controlling casualties within a certain limit.

Taking Shennong’s recovery of the various tribes as an example, most of the time, they were besieged and persuaded to surrender, and only the tribal leaders died, and new leaders were elected from among them.

Value human life very much.

In the civil wars between tribal peoples, there has never been any massacre or killing of the surrendered.

This action seemed to reveal the memory engraved in the bones of the human race.

Everyone who heard the news felt an inexplicable anger in their hearts! When the rabbit dies, the fox mourns. Who can escape?

People can die on the battlefield, be slaughtered by the enemy, or be used as food by other ethnic groups.

The only thing he cannot do is die at the hands of his own people, let alone die at the hands of people whose captives rely on his military exploits and who secretly believe in him!
If Chi You was dissatisfied with Xuanyuan before, it was because he had made no contribution to the human race. There were also many officials standing on his side and speaking in his defense.

This is because many human officials believed that Chiyou was able to become the King of Humanity because of his military exploits, and they felt that being the King of Humanity was what he deserved.
