Super Seminary: I am Pluto

"Elder Yuanzheng, please have a seat."
Yuan Zhengzhen sat down to try it out and found that the chair really felt quite nice.
"What do we have to talk about?" Yuan Zheng asked.
"a lot of..."
“For example…” Bai Xiao paused for a moment, then waved his left hand slightly, and the scene of Yuan Zheng of the Dragon Clan being framed by the Dragon Clan appeared before the two of them as if it were a projection.
"For example, what happened to you in Dragon City..."
"You arranged this?" Upon seeing this projection, Yuan Zheng instinctively assumed that Hades had orchestrated everything.
"I don't have that much free time."
Bai Xiao first denied Yuan Zheng's statement, then continued:
"In your Holy Realm's ideology, love and peace can solve problems, but in reality, love and peace do not seem to have helped you quell the dragon race's civil war."
"On the contrary, the civil war was suppressed by force..."
"This is my fault..." Yuan Zheng took the blame upon himself, as it was indeed he who had done it.
"Is this really just your problem?" Bai Xiao retorted. "Does the Holy Realm's actions truly embody the ideals of love and peace? Is it really just a matter of your own beliefs?"
"As far as I know, the Holy Realm was able to unify the Seventh Parallel Universe after going through many wars... In the war between the Holy Realm and the Underworld, love and peace did not play any role."
"In my eyes... you and the Underworld both solve problems through brutal and simple methods of suppression. It's just that... we're more direct, while you use so-called love and peace to cloak your methods in a glamorous disguise..."
"That's not how it is, it's just a..." Yuan Zhenggang wanted to refute something, but after thinking about it carefully, the scenes that flashed through his mind could not serve as strong evidence for his rebuttal.
Looking at the history of the Holy Realm's rise to power, it seems that it was indeed spent in war. The ideals of love and peace were often passed on to weaker civilizations, while those powerful civilizations that opposed the Holy Realm gradually disappeared in the war.
With no dissenting voices remaining, only praise and admiration sang of the Holy Realm's greatness.
"Are you trying to say this was just an accident?" Bai Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly. "Is...it really an accident?"
His deep, magnetic voice amplified Yuan Zheng's inner conflict, causing him to waver in his belief that his actions were righteous.
The so-called holy war...
Has it truly been about love and peace?
Chapter 173 Yuan Zheng Disarms! (Second Update!)
Does their Holy Realm truly uphold the principle of treating everyone equally?
A weak civilization praises the Snow Queen's ideals, while a powerful civilization opposes the Holy Realm and is thus annihilated. What is the difference between this act of conquering by force and the Underworld?
Love is seen because of forgiveness...
Has the Holy Realm truly become tolerant of those civilizations that oppose its ideals?
They were tolerant.
But it wasn't entirely lenient.
Therefore, it brought about the destruction of those civilizations...
For the first time, Yuan Zheng felt that there was a discrepancy between his own understanding of love and the Holy Realm's concept of love and peace.
...
"No matter what you say... your underworld has dragged even more innocent civilizations into a greater war."
Yuan Zheng's belief in the Holy Realm of love wavered, but this did not mean that his views on the Underworld had changed.
"I don't deny that. Change inevitably leads to conflict. As the ruler of the Underworld, aside from those civilizations that once humiliated the Wolf Clan, I have given opportunities to all civilizations that were enemies of the Underworld, just like how your Holy Realm suppressed the Seventh Parallel Universe..."
Bai Xiao's voice echoed softly, which only deepened Yuan Zheng's confusion.
change...
"Pluto, why must you rule over all seven parallel universes? I know a little about your werewolf race, and frankly, I admire you in some ways for leading your race out of its predicament. But why must you use a violent means of expansion to suppress more innocent civilizations?"
Yuan Zheng asked this question.
In his view, Hades was definitely a decent racial leader, but from the perspective of parallel universes and multiple races, Hades was a ruler who intended to disrupt the stability of the seven parallel universes.
"I used to be... very simple."
Upon hearing Yuan Zheng's question, Bai Xiao paused for a moment, then waved his left hand, displaying a series of images of wolves being surrounded and annihilated by other clans.
"You must have felt the effects of prejudice in the Dragon Realm today, haven't you? Because of your presence, ignorant people will imagine the outcome they want..."
"Just like how your Holy Realm views our Underworld, it's all tinged with prejudice and subjectivity. This prejudice can't be explained away in a few words; there's only one way to shut them up..."
As Yuan Zheng gazed at the images of the early wolf clan being hunted down and their members lying dead in the fields, he began to understand why Hades was so obsessive.
Don't persuade others to be kind to others without suffering.
"Just as you suppressed the dragon race, I suppressed all the civilizations in the fifth parallel universe. I just want to see... whether I can use this absolute power to completely suppress this seed of prejudice..."
Bai Xiao's words exuded an aura of superiority, which made people tremble.
“But that doesn’t solve the problem…” Yuan Zheng retorted, “You should use love to gradually erase their prejudice against you…”
"You mean you want our wolf clan to break our teeth, abandon our bloodlust, and turn to eating grass, licking our wounds and becoming friends with them?"
Bai Xiao smiled and said, "It's not that I haven't thought about it, but the wolf clan's tolerance has only led to them taking an even bigger step forward."
“Elder Yuanzheng, I thought that after experiencing the Dragon Clan's affairs, you would have seen something clearly, but I found that... you still don't understand.”
"If love could solve problems, there wouldn't be so much conflict in the world. If love could solve problems, you wouldn't be forced to resort to force to silence them..."
"No...that's not how it is." Yuan Zheng indicated that it was his fault just now, and that it shouldn't distort his understanding of love.
"Yet you did just that..."
Hades' next words left him speechless.
indeed.
He definitely made a mistake.
Seeing that Yuan Zheng remained silent, Bai Xiao continued to answer Yuan Zheng's question.
"As for why I'm so determined to unify the seven parallel universes... the reason is quite simple: the universe needs order, the universe needs progress. Rather than protecting the weak and maintaining so-called peace, the ruler, or rather the supreme power, should choose to promote the development of the entire universe..."
Bai Xiao presented the concept of the Underworld to Yuan Zheng in the form of visual data, which made Yuan Zheng think. This was a new direction that he, and even the entire Holy Realm, had never thought of before.
A controllable jungle environment...turns stagnation into upward development...
It conforms to the universal law of survival of the fittest...
From a broader perspective, and considering Hades's overall vision, Yuan Zheng couldn't find any fault with him; in fact, he had to admire the breadth of Hades's vision.
This is no longer a question of rule or non-rule; it's a terrifying idea to make history and unify the seven parallel universes.
Who can do that?
In the known history of the seven parallel universes, no one has ever accomplished this, nor has anyone even considered this direction...
From this perspective, it seems that their Holy Realm is more like an obstacle...
Yuan Zheng took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He looked at Hades beside him with a hint of respect in his eyes and less hostility.
Despite their differing stances, he greatly admired the grand vision and scope of Hades's ideals.
"Your external strategic vision may be correct, but I still maintain that for a civilization to develop sustainably, it must rely on love and peace..."
Yuan Zheng still holds onto the love he understands in his heart.
Although this love has some flaws, he will try to figure out how to fix it.
"I exist because of love. Force may be the fastest way to solve problems, but it is certainly not the best way... Prejudice will eventually be erased from people's hearts by love."
Yuan Zheng decided to use time to put his ideals into practice, an unshakable principle for him to become a strongman.
“I will choose to lay down my arms and no longer interfere in the war between the Underworld and the Holy Realm. I will use my love to help the Dragon Clan in the Dragon Clan's territory and make amends for the mistakes I have made. I will choose to use love to erase their prejudices against love and the Holy Realm, rather than relying on the use of force.”
"I will prove to you that love is the best way to solve problems."
"..."
Yuan Zheng is persistent.
He understood Hades's philosophy, and he firmly believed in the existence of love. Although some actions in the Holy Realm did not prove the power of love, he still persisted in his belief that love was powerful.
"Elder Yuan Zheng... as a powerful figure, is it really worth it to give up your strength to prove a love that is so illusory?" Bai Xiao asked after hearing Yuan Zheng's words.
Hearing Hades' question, Yuan Zheng remained silent for a few seconds before answering:
"There are two kinds of people in this world. One kind of person does not live for the purpose of existence, but to burn brightly. The other kind of person can only watch others burn and let the light of others illuminate themselves."
"Perhaps the love in my heart is not enough to change the world, but there will always be successors to carry on my wishes, generation after generation. I firmly believe that one day the world will be full of love."
...
P.S.: Please give me everything, please give me everything! Your support determines the length of this book... *sobs*
Yesterday someone said I ruined Yuanzheng's public image.
I think even wise people make mistakes. It is because of these mistakes that Yuan Zheng spent 100,000 years making amends and using love to erase prejudice.
Simply projecting an image of saintliness is often the most damaging thing you can do to your persona. Everything needs to be foreshadowed... that way, you won't feel awkward.
Chapter 174 People with Different Paths Cannot Make Plans Together
When you firmly believe that this is what you are pursuing, then everything you do is worthwhile, regardless of personal gain.
Perhaps Pluto's overall philosophy is correct, but he cannot choose to pursue Pluto because it is different from his inner concept of love.
Different road non-phase plan.
As for his decision to lay down his arms, it was because he agreed with Hades's overall strategy and also with Snow Queen's ideas about love. The best option for him was to stop interfering in the war.
He would abandon violence and solve problems with love. Even if it took a thousand, ten thousand, or a hundred thousand years, he would stay in the Dragon Clan to make amends for his mistakes and prove that his love could influence this cruel world.
The armor on Yuan Zheng's body slowly transformed into a stream of light and faded away, revealing the azure elder's robes of the White Tiger Clan he wore. He looked at Bai Xiao not far away:
"Pluto, if one day you truly unify the seven parallel universes, I hope you will genuinely fulfill your original vision and shoulder the responsibilities of a ruler, rather than becoming a tyrant who rules over the seven parallel universes..."
Yuan Zheng has seen many people lost in greed. This world is cruel and illusory. If you are not careful, you may be trapped in one place or go astray and lose your original intention.
"From the day I decided to fight, I was prepared to live a life of solitude. This is my path," Bai Xiao's voice rang out.
His heart was pure from the beginning, and his beliefs became even stronger because of this pure heart.
The surrounding space slowly shattered, and in the blink of an eye, they appeared in Dragon City in the second parallel universe, as if they had never left.
Yuan Zheng slowly opened his eyes, gazing at the tragedy in Longcheng that he had caused. He was ready to atone for his sins.
Long Jian saw Yuan Zheng's appearance, which was both familiar and unfamiliar, and he was slightly taken aback.
Is it...him?
He was somewhat surprised.
Although his appearance has changed slightly, he can still recognize his facial features.
When he rebelled against the Scorpion King, he and Huo Linfei joined forces but were no match for the Scorpion King. During their retreat, it was an old man who stepped forward to try to buy them time, but was ultimately killed mercilessly by the Scorpion King's subordinates.
He later inquired about the old man's name, but by then no one in the dragon race knew his real name; the dragons all referred to the old man as a filthy sinner.
...
Judging from how Hades addressed him... he seems to be a high-ranking elder in the Holy Realm?
Long Jian recalled the way Hades had addressed Yuan Zheng.
An elder from the Holy Realm wreaked havoc on the Dragon Clan 100,000 years ago, only to reappear in a sorry state in the Dragon Clan's underground city 100,000 years later.
Was it because he stayed in the Dragon Clan for 100,000 years?
At this moment, a multitude of questions arose in Long Jian's mind.
In a daze, he seemed to recall the old man's expression as he looked in the direction he had left before he sacrificed himself, his pale lips trembling as he murmured: "I'm sorry..."
He initially thought the old man might have some connection to him, perhaps having killed his parents or something... but it turned out there was none.
Now he was beginning to understand.
This apology wasn't just for him, but for the entire dragon race.
