Chapter 1362: To Be The Fisherman
“Why do you say that?” Ye Qing asked.
“First, the Clear Sky Palace, Earthly Sovereign Hall, and Human Sovereign Mountain were sects descended from the ancient Three Sovereigns. They might not involve themselves in worldly affairs most of the time, but they have inherited the Three Sovereigns’ will and the responsibility to protect all of humanity. They will never allow anything that might threaten the continuation of humanity to occur.”
“The Four Evils most likely fall under this category. They of all people would not want the Four Evils to break free.”
“Second, the Earthly Sovereign may be the main lead behind the sealing of the Four Evils, but I am sure that the Heavenly Sovereign and the Human Sovereign have made many contributions as well. If the Four Evils were to break free, then they, the descendants of the Three Sovereigns, are obligated to stand at the forefront of the battlefield. Therefore, I am sure they would rather end the threat sooner than later.”
“Finally, the Earthly Sovereign Bell is the Earthly Sovereign’s Dao artifact and the sacred artifact of the Earthly Sovereign Hall. It shares deep connections with the Clear Sky Palace and the Human Sovereign Mountain as well. They will take action if only to save the Earthly Sovereign Bell from destruction.”
Feng Qingyou explained slowly and carefully, her voice naturally instilling confidence in Ye Qing the longer she spoke. “In conclusion, the Clear Sky Palace, the Earthly Sovereign Hall, and the Human Sovereign Mountain would never allow the Earthly Sovereign Bell to be destroyed or the Four Evils to escape their seals. When they find out about this, they will do everything in their power to stop Emperor Jing Run. Even better, they are one of the few sects who actually possess the power to do this.”
“... Huh.”
Ye Qing was speechless. Feng Qingyou’s plan to make the three sects their butcher’s knife certainly sounded very reliable. However, it was also pretty despicable. After all, assuming they were carrying out this plan, they would be using the greater good to coerce the Clear Sky Palace, the Earthly Sovereign Hall, and the Human Sovereign Mountain into action.
From their perspective, it would be as if disaster had suddenly fallen from the sky and hit them squarely in the head.
