Chapter 1658 - 1659: The General Trend of the World
"So, you also support the disappearance of the Nine Ancient Tribes."
Bai Qiu calmly spoke.
Su Chengyu did not hesitate and replied frankly, "I don’t know if there is truly a connection between those divine beasts that helped revive the Human Clan back then and the Nine Ancient Tribes, but from the perspective of my experience with the Supreme Daoist Scripture, this is indeed something beneficial to the entire world."
A single Supreme Daoist Scripture could elevate a Taoist sect like the Quanzhen Sect to become one of the Four Major Taoist Sects. Even though it’s rare for the Nine Ancient Tribes to possess something as thorough and transformative as the Supreme Daoist Scripture, which could establish an entire Taoist sect from merely half of its contents,
there are certainly cultivation methods within those tribes that could greatly benefit cultivators across the world.
This was the fundamental reason for him bringing up this perspective.
"Connections can’t be entirely dismissed, but honestly, those are issues from our ancestors. They don’t really have much to do with us. And those events are long past—who knows what kind of characters their descendants have turned out to be today."
Ao Tian clearly seemed indifferent to all of this.
His loyalty and righteousness came first, so he naturally didn’t concern himself much with those archaic rules.
In contrast, Bai Qiu seemed slightly hesitant and quietly said, "I understand the reasoning, but even if this would be a good thing, it doesn’t necessarily mean the Nine Ancient Tribes must be wiped out, does it?"
Su Chengyu smiled and replied, "Of course. As I’ve said before, the existence or elimination of the Nine Ancient Tribes doesn’t matter—they can exist, or exist in a different form; neither is particularly important. Except for a few tribes like the Luo Clan with which I have deep personal grievances, I don’t hold much animosity toward the other tribes. My earlier statements were simply made from the perspective of universal justice."
