Chapter 341

But immediately after, the Heavenly Principles' originally puzzled expression suddenly became Solemn.

He could feel that after shaking hands with Jiang Yan, the curse he had cast upon this group of humans was forcibly stopped.

Jiang Yan said nothing; only his right hand glowed, with both the Power Gem and the Mind Gem shining.

"Do you intend to stop me?"

The Heavenly Principles spoke lightly.

"Oh my, don't be so Solemn. How about letting them go? After all, they are just a group of innocent civilians."

Jiang Yan chuckled.

"They touched the forbidden and instigated this war."

"They should be utterly eradicated."

The Heavenly Principles spoke lightly.

"Casting a curse upon them and granting them the right to survive on this continent is already an act of mercy."

"What you say seems reasonable."

Jiang Yan did not let go of the hand he was holding with the Heavenly Principles.

"How about this: I will not stop you from casting the curse."

"Some people indeed deserve to suffer torment!"

"But I must say, even in Khaenri'ah, not everyone deserves to die."

"At least those innocent civilians know nothing of Khaenri'ah's mad research."

"I will erase the memories of this war and of life in Khaenri'ah from their souls, so they will no longer remember this matter."

"How about that?"

The Heavenly Principles looked lightly at Jiang Yan and said:

"You... why do you care so much about these ants?"

He did not understand Yan's Idea.

A powerhouse like Jiang Yan, capable of standing beside him, actually cared about the feelings of ants.

Hearing the Heavenly Principles' words, Jiang Yan smiled slightly.

"Care...?"

"I suppose so."

"I simply feel that those who deserve to die must die, and the innocent need not suffer by association."

He released the hand that had been restraining the Heavenly Principles and turned to look at the group kneeling on the ground.

These people included women, children, burly men, and elders of seventy years.

Some had resentment in their eyes, while others' gazes held confusion.

They looked up at the gods standing before them, high and mighty.

Why destroy their homes?

"Heh, do you see?"

"Even if you stop me, these ants will not thank you."

The Heavenly Principles came to Jiang Yan's side and said lightly.

"Humans are like this: if you treat them well, they will become more demanding and want more."

"If you treat them poorly, they will think of how to overthrow you and push you into the abyss."

The Heavenly Principles had his own basis for saying this.

1.7 He created all living beings and once made countless promises to humanity; whatever humans requested, he would strive to fulfill.

He once created a human paradise like Eden.

But humanity's curiosity began to question the authority of the Sky Island!

They began seeking wisdom from the depths, and ultimately, they touched that forbidden knowledge.

This ultimately summoned the descent of the Second Wang Zuo!

Phanes fought against it; the world teetered on the brink of collapse, and Phanes, having won with great difficulty, recreated the world.

From that moment, Phanes finally realized that humanity should not be treated as before.

The sky no longer responded to human requests, and the Sprites were punished by Phanes.

Subsequently, Archons ran rampant across the continent, and the Archon War began.

This ultimately led to the formation of the current world and the arrival of the era of the Seven Sovereigns of the Mortal Realm.
