Chapter 756: After Death, Let the Deluge Come

"Why must evil be suppressed?"

The Evil God King said unhappily, "Haven't we discussed this already?"

"Without evil, there is no good; because evil exists, living beings can feel the preciousness of kindness."

The Good God King curled her lips: "So the existence of evil is inevitable and necessary, but it cannot stand on equal footing with kindness. Only when kindness overwhelms evil can this world become better and better."

"Correct."

The Life God King nodded: "Just like life and destruction; only when destruction becomes less and less does the world change for the better."

The gods behind them watched the four of them quietly, the meaning behind their eye contact unclear.

Are these two pairs really suitable to be couples? Or would a hostile relationship be more appropriate?

Life and Destruction, Goodness and Evil—no matter how you look at it, they are incompatible.

"Enough, we represent different rules and have different philosophies; this Dao struggle will have no result," the Destruction God King waved his hand: "In the current situation, we must send at least two God Kings down to have a chance at taking them, but we cannot do it in a short time, and we are very likely to be intercepted..."

"In this way, it is very difficult to open this Douluo Plane, so we can only destroy the entire plane."

The Life God King expressed her stance without hesitation: "No! I object!"

"I object as well!" The Good God King followed closely behind.

The Destruction God King glanced at them both and spoke slowly: "Then I will use my veto power to reject your proposal."

The expressions on the faces of the Life God King and the Good God King instantly became as ugly as if they had eaten shit.

"Destruction, don't forget the original intention of establishing the God Realm Committee—it was to prevent you from acting arbitrarily and committing a grave mistake!"

The Life God King said coldly: "When you use this veto power, it means we have reached a huge disagreement. At this time, we should shelve the issue, not act like a dictator!"

"There is no time," the Destruction God King said indifferently: "Giving me the veto power back then was to prevent us from bickering at critical moments and missing the opportunity."

"Is there no time now? They are right here on this Douluo Star and cannot escape," said the Life God King.

"No," the Destruction God King shook his head: "He has already discovered the power granted to him by the world's rules. Even without mastering it yet, he is comparable to a God King. Once he truly masters it, we might not be his match."

"But we have the entire God Realm, after all," the Life God King frowned: "No matter how strong he is, he couldn't possibly overturn the entire God Realm, could he?"

The Destruction God King was silent for a moment: "His power makes me feel terrified. That rule is different from any of ours."

The Life God King opened her mouth: "Actually, we don't need to... sigh, forget it..."

Seeing the eager gazes of the gods behind her, she silently closed her mouth.

Gods who claim to be selfless are, in the end, still driven by selfish interests; it really is ironic...

"Hiss! ——"

The light scar splitting the plane expanded rapidly under the blessing of the gods.

Looking up from the Douluo Continent, it was as if countless nuclear bombs were being dropped from the sky; elemental explosions and storms swept through—a true scene of the apocalypse.

"Ahhhhhhh! ——"

On the ground, endless living beings collapsed and wailed under this life-and-death pressure.

But no one cared about them; the gazes of the gods were locked only on Qin Jian.

Seeing this scene, the Destruction God King's expression suddenly shifted, and he transmitted his voice into the plane: "The only one we have wanted to capture from beginning to end is you. If you surrender yourself and walk outside the plane, then I can spare the living beings of this plane. How about it?"

The world was suddenly quiet for an instant.

"Swish, swish, swish..."

Subsequently, countless gazes converged on Qin Jian's back, carrying heavy expectations and even deeply buried resentment.

They could be considered to have been dragged into this...

"It really is disgusting..."

Qin Jian stood alone in the high sky, yet he felt as if he were facing the entire world by himself.

The Destruction God King was right; the fact that Douluo Star was suffering this catastrophe was indeed because of him.

Although capturing him was the selfish desire of the gods, it had also caused the sentient beings of Douluo Star to suffer as innocent bystanders.

In the face of life and death, no one could remain calm, not even those who originally trusted and believed in him.

To ask them to die together for the sake of faith—and a meaningless death at that—how many people would be willing?

"Do not be bewitched!"

Suddenly, Bibi Dong's voice spread everywhere: "To the gods, our plane is nothing more than ants that can be wiped out with a flip of their hands, but Qin Jian is truly protecting this world. Are you really going to ask him, who has protected the plane, to die for the sake of an illusory promise?"

Once these words were spoken, many gazes between heaven and earth changed.

But more remained as they were, quietly hoping that Qin Jian would step forward and bear the anger of the gods alone.

If it weren't for the fact that Qin Jian's strength was too great and he could drag them to their deaths at any time, many people would surely have already voiced their anger.

Even so, there were still scattered voices demanding that Qin Jian take responsibility himself and not implicate others.

"Do you see? This is why I advise you to be heartless..."

The Destruction God King mocked: "No matter how good you are to them, in the face of their own crisis, they will still choose themselves. Having feelings? What use is it? It is nothing more than being shackled."

"Having feelings is not about gaining everyone's love and approval, but about gaining the sincere feelings of a small number of people; that is enough," Qin Jian smiled calmly.

"We will die with you!"

At this moment, Bibi Dong, Ning Rongrong, and the other nine suddenly said in unison.

"Chief Judge! I am willing to advance and retreat with you! At worst, we just die!"

Someone on the ground suddenly roared as well.

With someone taking the lead, more people felt their blood surge, and they roared along: "We are willing to die with the Chief Judge!"

In human nature, there is cowardice and there is passion; just like kindness and evil, they are born together, and the transition between them happens in a single thought.

Although their number was not large compared to all the living beings on Douluo Star, it still made Qin Jian feel warmth and support.

At least... he did not have to be the enemy of the whole world.

"Actually, you are right," Qin Jian suddenly looked up at the sky: "If death is destined, why implicate the innocent?"

He lifted his foot and walked upward.

"Qin Jian! —"

The women exclaimed in alarm.

Qin Jian turned his head to look, sweeping his gaze across the face of every one of them.

Once, twice, looking with meticulous care.

"Although you are willing to die with me, I am your man; if there is to be death, it should be before you."

His nonchalant appearance made the eyes of Ning Rongrong and the others turn slightly red.

"Hiss!"

The divine sword ignited with a blazing sun, and Qin Jian pointed the sword toward the sky.

His voice spread to every corner of Douluo Star, stirring up ten thousand waves.

"I am going outside the Plane to fight them; if I am lucky enough to win, I will certainly return to share the glory with you all, but if I am defeated..."

This man holding the sword looked toward the sky beyond, and suddenly laughed out loud.

"Defeated, dead, let the floodwaters rage after I am gone!"
