Primordial Era: When a Good Guy Awakens a Morally Unethical System

Chapter 401

Hongyun didn't believe that there wasn't some inappropriate feeling between the two of them.

In that case, it's indeed inappropriate to force Kong Xuan to take action himself.

He raised his hand to stop Zhen Yuanzi, advising, "Don't force him! Since he doesn't want to target Shuangpin, let's try someone else!"

"He should handle this himself!" Zhen Yuanzi thought it was unacceptable.

Hongyun glanced at Kong Xuan and continued to persuade him, "He is the first child we raised. Can you bear to see him suffer so much and spend his future filled with regret?"

Zhen Yuanzi hesitated for a moment, but then retorted, "If killing a Shuangpin means spending billions of years in regret, then let's just die together!"

Hongyun sighed, unsure how to explain.

Killing a traitor is certainly not something to regret, but if that traitor is someone you love, it's hard to hate them even if they betray you.

Since Zhen Yuanzi couldn't persuade him, Hongyun turned to Kong Xuan and said, "Kong Xuan, I know you can't bring yourself to do it, but you also need to know that Shuangpin has changed. It's not the cute panda you remember from your childhood."

Now, relying on that knife, he kills without hesitation, his body radiating bloodlust. If you don't kill him, even more people, even your junior brother, will die at his hands.

You may refrain from taking action, but you must never stop others from doing so. The last sentence was particularly important, meant to be kept in mind by Kong Xuan, so that he would never make a mistake.

"Yes, Your disciple obeys!" Kong Xuan had no choice but to bow and agree.

Although she still looked sad, Kong Xuan didn't resist much.

Zhen Yuanzi was still worried and instructed, "For the next period of time, you should cultivate in the temple! Remember to keep your mind calm and do not let your Daoist heart be disturbed or fall into the demonic path."

Kong Xuan paused for a moment, nodded, and then cupped his hands again: "Disciple obeys! Then disciple will withdraw to cultivate."

Zhen Yuanzi nodded, and Kong Xuan withdrew.

After Kong Xuan left, Hongyun and Zhen Yuanzi almost got into an argument over the matter.

Zhen Yuanzi believed that Kong Xuan should kill Shuang Pin himself in order to eliminate distracting thoughts and stabilize his Dao heart.

Hongyun, however, believed that the tribulations of love were the most difficult to endure. As long as Kong Xuan knew right from wrong, that would be enough. It didn't matter who made the move; why force Kong Xuan to do it himself?

"How can one attain the Great Way if one's mind is filled with distracting thoughts?" Zhen Yuanzi rarely argued with Hongyun about a matter.

Hongyun didn't want to dwell on it any longer, so she glanced around, trying to change the subject and find an excuse.

Just then, Huiyu's figure appeared in the magic mirror and landed directly on the battlefield.

He quickly spoke up: "Ao Bing hasn't arrived yet, but Hui Yu has."

"Huiyu is a quasi-saint, so he can be quite fast. Ao Bing... he didn't seem to care about getting there as quickly as possible." Zhen Yuanzi was very dissatisfied when he mentioned Ao Bing, who was still admiring the scenery on the road.

On the battlefield, Huiyu unleashed the flames of the Golden Crow, but did not attack anyone. Even those flames only appeared powerful; they could not actually harm anyone.

Soon, two powerful figures with overwhelming demonic aura emerged from the Xuanming City of the North Sea.

Both men looked middle-aged, with signs of age around their eyes.

"Second Prince, I never imagined you'd already reached the Quasi-Saint realm."

A hint of melancholy appeared on Bai Ze's face.

The little brat from back then has already broken through to the Quasi-Saint level, but he has tried every means to cultivate and break through for many years, yet he has achieved nothing.

For a moment, a mix of relief and envy lingered in my heart, and I didn't know which smile to use to congratulate Huiyu.
