626: Chapter 626 Chen Yi's Thoughts

Yue Wen flew beside Chen Yi, her pale golden eyes swirling with complex emotions.

She glanced at Chen Yi's profile, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she were calculating something.

She opened her mouth, then closed it again.

After repeating this a few times, she finally spoke.

"Chen Yi."

"Hm?"

"After everything has settled, what will you choose?"

Chen Yi was taken aback: "What will I choose? What do you mean?"

Yue Wen was silent for a moment before saying: "Between us, the world malice, and you humans, which side will you stand on?"

Once these words were out, Chen Yi was even more bewildered: "Ah, haven't I already answered this question? You are all good sisters; I absolutely will not have any discrimination, and I don't want there to be any estrangement between you all—"

Halfway through, he finally understood what Yue Wen meant by this.

She wasn't talking about how Chen Yi should treat the girls who loved him deeply, but rather how Chen Yi should treat the Void Realm and the living beings of countless life planets in the future!

Once the matter of An Ran was resolved, Chen Yi would undoubtedly become the Dominator of the Void Realm, an existence comparable to Great Emperor Chen Yu!

Then he would certainly be unable to avoid the fact that he would have to manage and even rule over both sides!

Chen Yi was human, and his Soul was also human; he just happened to inherit the will of Great Emperor Chen Yu!

If he were made to rule according to the previous methods, letting the world malice feed on the world will of the human world and enslave humans—he, as a human, probably wouldn't accept that at all, right?

Yue Wen did not rush him; she just flew quietly beside him, waiting for his answer.

Chen Yi thought for a moment and said: "I won't change anything!"

Yue Wen was stunned for a moment and asked: "Hm? Don't you want to save the current situation of humanity?"

Chen Yi sighed and explained as they flew.

"I'm not that kind of bleeding heart! I just want the people around me to live well; I don't have any other thoughts."

"As for this question, actually, even if I made changes, in the end, I wouldn't be able to change anything."

"No matter which world it is, the Law of the jungle is the basic Law, and it's not something that can be influenced by a single rule."

"Even in the world before my Transmigration, without this kind of special power to move mountains and drain seas, because of money and status, different classes would still be divided, and there would still be people being bullied and oppressed."

"If I ordered that the world malice is not allowed to attack humans, then I'm afraid most of the hostility would just turn into oppression against the pseudo-god Evil Thought Entity, and the order basically wouldn't change much."

"And among humans, there would likewise be stronger humans oppressing weaker humans; it wouldn't change anything at all."

"The order left behind over thousands of years has already formed a delicate balance; there's no need to intentionally break it."

"All I can do is keep those who break the rules in check, and as long as the people around me can be happy, that's enough."

After listening, Yue Wen immediately smiled.

It was a smile truly from the heart.

She had originally just wanted to ask casually to test the waters, but she hadn't expected Chen Yi to answer so seriously—

So solemn, as if he were truly answering a question concerning the survival of the world.

He seemed so cute!

However, Chen Yi's answer did indeed align with her thoughts!

That's right, even if the current oppression was solved, it would be useless; oppression would still arise elsewhere; it simply couldn't be changed!

This is the most fundamental Law of the world!

All they could do was try their best to make these things happen less often—

"Then what about the matter of the world malice devouring the world will? Are you not going to manage that either?"

Chen Yi thought for a moment and said: "That is their way of survival, just like how humans need to eat and raise livestock; as long as they don't kill the innocent indiscriminately, don't destroy the balance, and don't do those inhumane things, I won't interfere."

"If I wanted to interfere, then I would have to lead by example, release all the livestock, and live a vegetarian life every day—no, even if I ate vegetarian, it would still be oppression to those plants, so it's simply impossible to do."

"But, if someone crosses the line and bullies the people around me, then don't blame me for being impolite!"

Yue Wen looked at him and smiled slightly: "You, sometimes you are really quite domineering!"

"This is called principles!"

"Your principles, huh—not bad, I like them!"

"You also like my 108 ways of attacking, don't you?"

"You're telling jokes like this at a time like this?"

"Am I wrong?"

"You're not wrong, because I really do like it!"

—

The two continued to fly upward, chatting along the way about many things regarding values.

It must be said that in some aspects, the two of them were truly very compatible!

"Then what about the conflicts between humans? Are you going to manage that?"

"I can't manage it all; let them solve it themselves."

"Then what if a war breaks out between the Void Realm and the life planets?"

"Mediate; if I can't mediate, then suppress them, slap each of them once!"

"Doesn't that contradict what you just said about 'not interfering'?"

"It doesn't contradict; war and survival are two different things. War destroys the balance, while survival maintains the balance."

"You really have some ideas!"

"Having lived for so many years, I have to have some ideas, otherwise I would have lived in vain!"

"Still talking about so many years; you're only 25, right? You don't even have a fraction of my—"

As the two chatted, half a day passed.

Yue Wen had originally thought that Chen Yi should be reaching his limit by now.

After all, at this altitude, even she, a God Emperor, vaguely felt that she was reaching her limit.

Chen Yi hadn't even reached the God Emperor Breakthrough, so how did it feel like he was even stronger than her?

A faint, unyielding spirit sprouted in her heart!

Clearly she was a God Emperor, the fourth person in the Void Realm to reach this Realm, the strongest existence!

But now it seemed that in front of Chen Yi, she was still nothing!

She took a deep breath and unleashed the power of the God Emperor level.

Her speed suddenly increased, turning into a silver-white stream of light, rushing upward.

Chen Yi was stunned: "What are you doing?"

Yue Wen's voice came from ahead: "Didn't City Lord Di and Lord Nolan say so? They will only help us hold Alke for three days, and almost two days have already passed! If we don't speed up, it will be too late!"

Hearing this, Chen Yi also felt it made a lot of sense.

He no longer held back, pushed his speed to the limit, and chased after Yue Wen.

And his speed became faster and faster, so fast that Yue Wen was a little surprised.

Just at this moment, the System's notification sound rang in his mind.
