Chapter 778

"... dead, all dead..."

On the ruins of the Nine Mysteries Imperial City, Xuan Qianlu bit her lip, sighing in her heart, feeling very sad.

At this moment, the Nine Mysteries Imperial City was covered in bloodstains, left by the millions of innocent city residents who had died.

There were no corpses.

After all, under the terrifying aftermath of the battle between Xuan Wujiu and hundreds of Supremes, how could ordinary mortals leave corpses?

Only patches of shocking bloodstains indicated their existence.

No one knew what they originally looked like.

This kind of thing was truly tragic.

Looking at these bloodstains, Xuan Qianlu felt a heartache.

After all, these were millions of city residents, living human beings just like her!

How long had it been, and they were all dead, not a single one survived.

Xuan Wujiu was dead, but she had no emotional fluctuation.

After all, Xuan Wujiu was insane and had even killed her once; the father-daughter relationship had long since been severed.

But these millions of city residents were all innocent.

Xuan Qianlu really couldn't bear to look.

"Is the cultivation world really this cruel?"

"I originally thought that being looked down upon in the palace was already cruel."

"I didn't expect the real cultivation world to be ten thousand times, a hundred million times more cruel."

Xuan Qianlu recalled the past, sighing.

She used to have low aptitude and was looked down upon and bullied in the imperial palace.

She originally thought she was the unluckiest person in the world, feeling gloomy every day.

But now, seeing the bloodstains left by these millions of city residents in the imperial city.

Xuan Qianlu finally understood that the things she encountered before were nothing compared to a real catastrophe.

And the death of these millions of city residents was nothing compared to a real world-exterminating catastrophe.

For example, if it weren't for Xuan Qianlu's "awakening," and Xuan Wujiu had continued to kill like this.

In the end, it wouldn't just be millions who died in the Nine Mysteries Realm, but hundreds of millions, billions, tens of billions, hundreds of billions...

That was a number like the stars in the sky; just thinking about it made Xuan Qianlu feel suffocated.

And a character like Xuan Wujiu, even if he killed hundreds of billions or trillions, might not be anything in the future catastrophe of the Myriad Heavens and Worlds.

Xuan Qianlu had seen records about Dark Supremes and Dark Turmoil in the diary copy.

Those Dark Supremes were countless times stronger than Xuan Wujiu.

They directly divided the starry universe into the Myriad Heavens and Worlds, making it convenient for them to harvest living beings round after round.

Now that a million years had passed, how many rounds had those Dark Supremes harvested, and how many deaths had they caused?

Xuan Qianlu didn't dare to calculate, nor could she calculate it.

"The cultivation world is truly cruel..."

"Without powerful cultivation, one is just an ant; even someone with the strength of the Emperor died inexplicably..."

At this moment, Xuan Qianlu witnessed the cruelty of the cultivation world for the first time.

"For the sake of cultivation, the Emperor could be so ruthless, slaughtering millions; and how many other cultivators like the Emperor are there?"

"If I hadn't awakened my past life, how many more people would have died in the Nine Mysteries Realm?"

"I can no longer be this weak!"

"Since I have awakened such power, I must stop such cruel things from happening again!"

"I want to be as strong as in my past life, change everything! Protect all living beings!"

Xuan Qianlu's expression suddenly changed, and she said firmly and softly.

After she had seen the previous "film" and learned about the deeds of the "past life" Ruthless Great Emperor.

She had wanted to change herself and become firm and strong.

But Xuan Qianlu was ultimately just watching some illusory screens at the time, and her feelings were not strong.

It was like watching an illusory movie and wanting to work hard to change one's life; that wasn't very realistic.

But now, Xuan Qianlu looked at the bloodstains all over the ground and the millions of wronged souls; only then was Xuan Qianlu truly touched inside.

Bloody reality was more touching than an illusory movie.

Thus, Xuan Qianlu had her own firm ideas.

She wanted to practice to be incomparably strong and, in the future catastrophe, provide protection for the billions of weak people!

Never let such cruel things happen again!

In the words of the cultivation world, Xuan Qianlu had initially found her own "Dao."

If she could be firm and consistent, and walk down this path.

Coupled with possessing the Heaven-Swallowing Demonic Art and Su Zhangqing's help, her future would be truly limitless.

Although Xuan Qianlu's "Dao" was not quite the same as what Su Zhangqing had envisioned...

"Little sister Qianlu is right, the cultivation world is truly cruel!"

Ling Qianxue and the others also heard Xuan Qianlu's self-talk, and they all sighed repeatedly.

Although separated by the live broadcast screen, they could also see the cruelty of the imperial city scene.

The death of millions of mortals was also the first time Ling Qianxue and the others, who were young, had seen it, and they were deeply shocked.

Thinking of the future catastrophe, where more would die, they felt even heavier in their hearts.

Therefore, when Xuan Qianlu sighed and said those words, they also felt deeply touched.

"Little sister Qianlu has set such a great ambition? To protect all living beings? She is truly too kind..."

"She seems a bit different from Sister Ruthless."

"Is there a difference between reincarnation and past life? What exactly is going on with this reincarnation?"

However, Ling Qianxue and the others were also confused in their hearts.

Xuan Qianlu had now awakened her past life memories, so why was she not at all like that Ruthless Great Emperor?

What exactly was going on with this reincarnation?

Shouldn't it be a generation of Great Emperor, "Sister Ruthless" returning as a king?

This Xuan Qianlu didn't look like that at all!

Ling Qianxue and the others' doubts were very reasonable; normal reincarnation, of course, was the same as what they thought, a return as a king.

But Xuan Qianlu's so-called Great Emperor reincarnation was just made up by Su Zhangqing...

"Little sister Qianlu, this isn't right, is it?"

In the Heavenly Saint City, Su Zhangqing watched the live broadcast screen and listened to Xuan Qianlu's sigh, and was speechless.

It seemed that Xuan Qianlu's growth had gone a bit astray...

After all, Su Zhangqing wanted to cultivate Xuan Qianlu into the "Ruthless Great Emperor" of this world.

Xuan Qianlu was originally just a supporting role who died after appearing for a few hundred words, and she couldn't compare to heroines like Ling Qianxue and the others.

If he could cultivate her into a peerless generation of female emperor, Su Zhangqing would still have a sense of accomplishment.

This was the fun of cultivation.

But now, Xuan Qianlu actually aspired to protect all living beings; this was somewhat different from the Ruthless Great Emperor's persona.

"Little sister Qianlu, protecting all living beings? That's the job of the Wu Shi Great Emperor!"

"You are the Ruthless Great Emperor; you have to be a bit more ruthless..."
