You are not allowed to do underworld operations in the world of the living!

Jiang Lu spent a long time explaining the cause and effect of the whole incident to the entire Sanqing world, allowing them to understand the true face of Yuanshi Tianzun and the difficulties they were facing now.

After explaining everything, he turned the camera to face the remains of Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Look, this is what Yuanshi Tianzun looks like now."

Countless cauliflowers and poison spots on the body made the perfect thin muscle body look distorted and weird, like a soaked giant statue that had been graffitied and then had flowers inserted into it. If Jiang Lu's live broadcast room was not too important, ordinary anchors would probably face the risk of being banned if they missed such a scene.

"Then, I will open the voting. The time limit is ten minutes. All decision-making power will be left to you."

Jiang Lu told all the causes and consequences to all the people in the Three Pure Ones Realm. This time, he did not exaggerate, nor did he make any literary processing or exaggeration, nor did he deliberately guide the story.

Being fair and objective is like an instruction manual that even people who have never been to school can understand without being influenced or hinted at.

After doing all this, everyone present waited quietly for the results of the vote.

The Lord of Dao and Morality was somewhat uneasy, as he did not know how the people would choose. In his opinion, the death of the Queen Mother of the West was so tragic that it fitted the image of a heroic epic in the hearts of the people. He was afraid that most people would be moved by this and would cast an impulsive vote.

With just a few words from Jiang Lu, they would not understand how terrifying Yuanshi Tianzun was.

Xuannv and others who had the same idea felt much more relieved.

When the Queen Mother of the West died, there were many comments of tribute and silence in the live broadcast room. The world seemed to become darker and sadder because of this. And just now, during Jiang Lu's narration, they also saw that there were many people in the live broadcast room who had been infected and became staunch supporters of the Queen Mother of the West. There were almost no voices of opposition.

The result of the vote seems to be a foregone conclusion.

Jiang Lu also had a glimmer of hope. If it was the will of all the people in the Three Pure Ones Realm, then it would be a reason for him to convince himself. As for the future, he would spare no effort.

Only Yuanshi Tianzun, who witnessed everything, had no expectations for the results, nor did he have the slightest bit of nervousness to know the results.

Because he already knew the result.

He sighed softly and said to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "I didn't expect you to be so stupid..."

Ten minutes passed quickly and the voting results came out smoothly.

However, the final result was not what they had imagined. Most people in the Three Pure Ones wanted to resurrect the Queen Mother of the West, and then stand on the same front with everyone to face the foggy future together.

Most people, or to be more precise, 90 percent of them, voted to completely seal Yuanshi Tianzun.

Such a result was unacceptable to Xuannv and others.

"How could it be... just now so many people clearly said..."

Lingbao Tianzun was also a little surprised when he saw this result, because he had originally thought that the resurrected Queen Mother of the West would have the upper hand.

The Lord of Morality breathed a sigh of relief, but although he was satisfied with the result, for some reason, he always felt a sense of discomfort in his heart.

At this time, Yuanshi Tianzun, who could not see the result, suddenly spoke up: "You all want to seal me, right?"

"Did you know this a long time ago?" Jiang Lu asked.

"Yes." Yuanshi Tianzun nodded: "From the moment you decided to do this, I already knew the result."

Hong Yi frowned: "What did you do?"

Hearing this, Yuanshi Tianzun was startled, then smiled helplessly: "You'd better not say that you were Taiyi, my student in your previous life. It's hard for me to imagine such naive words coming out of your mouth.

Of course I didn't do anything. I can't, and I don't want to, do such a low-level thing as manipulating people's hearts."

He shook his head and said, "You have to know that most people don't consider whether they should do it or not. They only consider whether it is beneficial to themselves. Why would they abandon their existing well-being and benefits to pursue morality?

Don't be silly, not everyone is as high and mighty as you are. They will worry about their livelihood and be afraid of death and injury. Even if you talk big, no one will give up everything for some vague ideals unless they are oppressed.

But now I can no longer oppress them, so they naturally have no reason to be my enemy. And the Queen Mother of the West is just a symbol to them, a legendary figure in the clouds. Without her, the Three Pure Realms will continue to turn, and they still have to continue their daily lives.

Jiang Lu, even if you become a god, even if you are the strongest person now, the world will not revolve around you. The only people who will believe in you are those around you who have the same goal as you, and her who has passed away. But even so, what if you don’t have a common goal? Morality has already begun to oppose you.

So, if you want the world to revolve around you, you must be strong and not pin your hopes on others!

Now, you should understand my difficulties. It's not that I don't want to trust others, but because most people, including Lingbao who made this suggestion, and Morality over there who has never been aware of the problem, are really not worthy of my trust.

I don't use force, I don't push them beyond their will, the end result is this, everyone will leave you."

Yuanshi Tianzun sneered:

"Look, I won again. My choices are always more correct than yours, aren't they?"

Chapter 417 Jiang Lu's Counterattack

[Um...will they really follow the voting results? ]

[You're not lying to us, are you? ]

[I'm sorry, I really hope that Queen Mother of the West can be resurrected, but it's too much to say that I want to go against Yuanshi Tianzun...]

[What? I'm going to fight Yuanshi Tianzun? ]

[It would be great if the anchor could consistently suppress Yuanshi Tianzun. As a new believer of the Queen Mother of the West who is an old fan, I will definitely vote for her. It’s a pity.]

[Brothers, it seems that everyone has voted to seal Yuanshi Tianzun. I feel much better seeing that everyone has the same opinion as me. I originally felt a little guilty, hehe.]

[Well, I'll log off first. To be honest, I'm a little embarrassed to stay here. When the time comes, remember to make a slice of the seal of Yuanshi Tianzun. I'll contribute to the playback volume.]

[Oh, I logged off first. I thought everyone would vote to revive the Queen Mother of the West, so I just randomly picked one. Look at what this has caused...]

Looking at the dazzling barrage of comments, Jiang Lu could no longer tell whether there were any tricks in it.

Or, in other words, they are all scoundrels and haters, and I am the only real fan?

The number of people in the live broadcast room was also decreasing rapidly, but not too much, because apart from the audience who cast a vote to seal and then heard Yuanshi Tianzun's words, they felt guilty and didn't want to stay in the live broadcast room anymore, most people still wanted to see with their own eyes how Yuanshi Tianzun would be sealed.

Jiang Lu did not deliberately block it this time, so Yuanshi Tianzun could also clearly see the reaction of the barrage.

"Look, they don't even care what I did. They just want to see me sealed. Let me guess, even if I'm still the high and mighty Yuanshi Tianzun who never thought of opening the door and wouldn't pose any threat to them, they would still be happy to see me sealed, right?"

Yuanshi Tianzun smiled and said:

"This is quite topical isn't it?"

Seeing Yuanshi Tianzun acting like an experienced person with everything under control, Jiang Lu felt annoyed but could not find any reason to refute him.

Daode Tianzun turned his gaze away from Yuanshi Tianzun's face, looked at Jiang Lu, and then said slowly:

"If the voting results are correct, you should be sealed away and never be able to open the door again. You will never see the scene you imagined, nor will you see the Queen Mother of the West. Even if you are a puppet, do you think you have won?"

Although he was also somewhat disappointed with the choice of the people in the Three Pure Ones, because they could even deny the Queen Mother of the West, they could naturally deny him and Lingbao Tianzun. It was as if no matter how much they did, as long as they did not go to every family one by one and give them resources and power, they would not appreciate it and would not remember their kindness.

Or to be more specific, it's okay to remember their kindness, but if you want something in return, sorry, that's out of the question.

Yuanshi Tianzun’s words were also very heartbreaking. He ruthlessly woke them up from their sleep and told them not to be so self-moved anymore.

But it doesn’t matter. Can it be worse than the destruction of the Three Pure Ones under the leadership of Yuanshi Tianzun?

At worst, I can let go of the present affairs and pursue the great path.

So he actually doesn't care who wins or loses, nor does he mind how Yuanshi Tianzun arranges him and Lingbao Tianzun. He only cares whether Yuanshi Tianzun will be sealed, which is the most important thing to him.

He wanted to tell Jiang Lu through this sentence that whoever can decide the other party's fate will be the winner.

He planned to use this to stimulate Jiang Lu's desire to win, and then seal Yuanshi Tianzun.

Even though I didn't know much about what kind of person Jiang Lu was in the past, I have come to know him more or less after coming across him along the way. As for Yuanshi Tianzun and Daode Tianzun, they are very familiar to me.

He could almost guess what was going to happen next.

Yuanshi Tianzun was too disdainful to argue, and Jiang Lu didn't want to lose face in front of him and everyone else, so he followed his steps down.

But his idea failed again.

Unexpectedly, Yuanshi Tianzun did not refute, but Jiang Lu seemed like a different person.

He frankly admitted the naivety of his ideas and even spoke up for Yuanshi Tianzun.

"It's not like that, morality, it's not like that."

Jiang Lu shook his head:

"These are two different things. Whether his understanding of the world is right or wrong has nothing to do with whether he is in my hands. You are trying to divert the conflict, which is actually inferior."

As soon as these words were spoken, a trace of surprise flashed across Yuanshi Tianzun's face, and then he immediately regained his composure.

The Lord of Morality showed a puzzled look: "You..."

He wanted to say: No matter who you are, get off Jiang Lu now.

But if you think about it carefully, it is impossible for him to be entangled by any dirty things now, and there is no possibility of him being possessed by another body.

That is,

"Do you really think so?" asked the Lord of Morality, "Do you also approve of him?"

A picture that made him a little scared appeared in his mind.

Could it be that Jiang Lu agreed with Yuanshi Tianzun's ideas, and then wanted to become the tough leader in Yuanshi's mouth, and then overturn the previous vote and insist on resurrecting the Queen Mother of the West?

"No! That's Yuanshi bewitching you!" Daode Tianzun shouted, "Everything he just said was just guiding you!"

Jiang Lu turned his head and looked at him, finding it a little funny: "What are you talking about? You don't think I'll be the kind of person he said would use tough measures, right? This is not my style."

"That's good." Lord Daode heaved a sigh of relief.

"Although his ideas are partly correct, such as that I am sometimes too unrealistic, he did teach me a lesson, but... in general, they are a bit too extreme."

Jiang Lu shrugged:

“There was a man named Mussolini who had the same idea as you.

Indeed, in certain special periods, such ideas can indeed lead a group of people to a brief period of glory, but in order to maintain the glory, they need one external enemy after another until all the enthusiasm is exhausted, or they are defeated by a powerful enemy.

But, aren’t you the biggest external enemy of the Sanqing Realm now?

The timing is wrong, Yuanshi Tianzun, the timing is wrong...

If your toughness, or your dictatorship, brings not glory but destruction to the people of the Three Pure Ones, just like you said, as long as you can ascend, you don’t care whether the Three Pure Ones live or die.

Then you can't say you're right, you're not making the world revolve around you, you're just using the world because you can't bring them heat.

You won, but only in terms of the depth of your self-knowledge, which I am not as good as you in. But if you say that you won because you know how to become the Supreme God better than me, and that your Three Pure Realms are more loyal than my underworld, then I can only say..."

Jiang Lu gave a thumbs up backwards:

"You are this."

Yuanshi Tianzun's expression was obviously a little strange when he heard half of it, and after hearing the whole thing, he could no longer suppress the change in his expression.

“Wasn’t he dismembered by the underworld to which he was loyal…” Lingbao Tianzun pulled the sleeve of Daode Tianzun and confirmed with him again.
