The Swordsman of the Gods

043. Difference of Opinion

Winter will be over soon. Today Yongchun apparently met a lot of people. Starting from Yang Jian, Xie Xie, Lin Lin then Li Bai.

At first he only intended to find someone who knew the existence of Yin, but it never went well. Yang Jian was already dying when he was found in the mountains, it just so happened that back then he was on top of looking for the Yin Leader who in the end did not meet.

After bringing Yang Jian to safety, he again met the sunken Leader Xie at that moment. He had just returned from the area, and was about to meet Xie in a safe situation. But it looks like it's really been a bad day.

Yongchun did not understand, whether this was a coincidence or someone had tried to kill them both.

Then now, in the quiet market area. It is now closed for fear that the winter storms will hit again. Yongchun met with Li Bai, who seemed to be in his spare time.

“What are you doing here, Leader Li?” ask Yongchun.

“Why are you asking me while you yourself are also here?”

“Sorry. I don't know why today wasn't lucky for me. I was about to meet Leader Yin, but where is he? This day I was looking for him but did not meet,” Yongchun said, he scratched his head in confusion.

“Leader Yin does like that. Time to visit the Palace alone he did not come,” said Li Bai.

“Yes, I was expecting it.”

“By the way do you need anything on Leader Yin?” ask Li Bai.

“Hm, yes. I just wanted to ask you, about the eyes I have. Because it seems like he knows more things,” thought Yongchun.

“Freely only. He's mute, and he won't talk to you who have that kind of power. Then, is that all? What exactly did you do by coming here? There's no way 'would you think Leader Yin is here.”

“Haha. That's right.” Yongchun laughed and then he approached him. “Today, I felt your aura from a distance. Restlessness ...what are you thinking right now?”

A man who knows everything just by looking at the emotions in the depths of one's heart.

Behind his paper fan, Li Bai smirked.

“I was just chased by a woman. Well, there are a lot of them. I do not know what to do when dealing with them, so I just run away,” replied Li Bai.

“Rupanya so. Yeah, I'm not surprised anyway. A person as handsome as you is liked by many women including Leader Xie,” Yongchun said smiling faintly.

Clack!

Yongchun walked past as he slightly drew his sword, Li Bai focused on what Yongchun was currently facing.

“What did you say just now?”

“Leader Li. Besides, I'm sure what you're worried about is this,” Yongchun said, not answering his question.

Pointing towards the front, where the demon figure is located. Or rather a lonely user of demonic arts, it seemed that person was just sitting curled up.

“What should I do? He doesn't look like he's going to do anything.”

“Therefore you stopped there? The user of the Demon Art could not be saved, his spirit would also not go anywhere other than just wandering around. So I guess, she's holding back pain.”

“But he looks alive. Shouldn't ..”

“You can treat it?” yongchun asked cutting off Li Bai's words.

“No. Of course not, that's why I thought there might be another way besides treating it.”

“In what way? You want to lock him up? He would feel an unbearable pain then go berserk. That's the Devil Art you talk about a lot, isn't it?”

Yongchun slashed his head with a single slash, slow yet sharp. It sounded as though Yongchun had done nothing, but as soon as he re-sheathed his sword, the head shifted and separated from his body which then fell to the ground.

“There is no need to do the impossible if by killing him alone has made him free from restraints,” said Yongchun.

“But it could be, right? I just don't want a lot of people to feel tormented. Besides you do too ...come here for your people there.”

“You speak so as if you can do anything. What you just said wasn't as easy as you'd imagine, Leader Li. All actions are risky, there is no time to rethink about what we will do every time, ” said Yongchun.

“What? You mean if he's hopeless, then you're gonna kill him without a second thought? That's why you're going to overthrow the empire because Emperor Ming didn't live up to your expectations?” li Bai asked with an angry face he closed the paper fan.

“You didn't try to do something first?” li Bai.

Yongchun sighed tiredly. “How do you think the same as Leader Yang. More or less also similar to my stupid friend!” yongchun.

“If the way you think is like that, how could all your residents be able to withstand it?!” peekkik Li Bai's.

“You know what ...every time I work on something, the result is much worse than the previous situation!” jerit Yongchun.

How come? Yongchun had also thought of working on something. Like a tree that grows in barren land, even though it once thrives miraculously it will soon wither. Everything he did was in vain.

That's why he now thinks logically. If the body is able and ready to last longer then it will also try, but if it is not able it will happen otherwise. Especially if, someone became a monster but tried to save him without injuring him in the slightest, it would definitely sound very stupid.

It's funny to call it a rescue plan or something.

If it cannot be saved, end the suffering. That was the principle of Yongchun since the civil war ended and he became a ruler of the middle east.

But the people here are so stupid. Including Yang Jian even Li Bai, they would try to save someone who was obviously impossible to save.

Li Bai who wanted to save the person who had previously used demon arts. Then Yang Jian, wanted to save Wang Xian as they were best friends. Both are impossible to save. Because they have given their soul to the devil.

“Then you just gave up?!”

“It's just that we continue this conversation, Leader Li. If you want, come to my territory then you will know what I mean,” said Yongchun turned around and was about to leave.

“Hei! What the hell do you mean?”

“I said so also does not mean I never considered it at all. I know how precious the life of every human being is, but I know when they can survive until they die.”

Yongchun's last line of words made Li Bai unable to recall it. Stunned by this, he thought of what might happen to Yongchun with the Cursed God's Eye.
