Chapter 1266 Ideal and reality!

"You are making a point!"

The blood-colored inner demon continued to fight back, "There is a causal relationship between killing ten million and killing ten million, either this or that! Because you are kind-hearted, slandered, falsely benevolent, righteous, seek fame and reputation, and are unwilling to bear the crime of "killing ten million", which ultimately leads to the death of 100 billion people! This is completely different from the example you gave!"

"What's the same thing?"

Li Yao asked coldly, "For example, a policeman saw a gangster with live ammunition committing a murderer. The gangster had already leveled the gun. He was caught off guard and had no time to activate the gun and had no other choice. The only solution was to grab an innocent little girl beside him and throw it over, knock the gangster's gun away, buy time, and then subdue the gangster!"

"Because he didn't do this and didn't throw this innocent little girl over, so everyone the gangster shot and killed was counted on the police?"

"If you still think I'm making a mess, what about the following example?"

"Some fanatical religious people seized a hundred innocent elementary school students as hostages and asked the authorities to hand over one, just an adult who 'blasphemed' their religion and let them deal with it!"

"If the authorities don't hand over this adult, they will kill a hundred innocent children!"

"If the authorities insisted not hand over the adults and the fanatical religious people really killed the children, would all be killed by the authorities?"

"There is always a 'cause and effect relationship' between adults and one hundred children? If an adult dies, the child does not have to die. If an adult dies, the child must die. This is always 'either or that', right?"

"Is it because of this that the authorities who never compromise are the murderers?"

"Bah! What a traitorous theory?"

"What killed people was the fire, the gangsters and the fanatical religious people, not the firefighters, the police and the authorities!"

"So, even if I didn't choose the strategy of 'detonating Karan Star', I just made a choice that a normal-minded firefighter, police and authorities would make. After that, the defense line collapsed completely, and 100 billion or even more people died. The one who killed them was the Holy Alliance invaders, rather than trying my best to fight against the enemy!"

"If I were really in Wu Yingqi's position, no matter how dangerous the environment I was, I would not break through the bottom line of mankind. I would fight like a real cultivator. If I fail, I would retreat, regroup and continue to fight! If countless ordinary people died in the war in this process, I would keep all the accounts on the heads of the Saint Alliance people, and one day I would return a hundred times! If I can't do it, the only reason is that I died halfway through the battle!"

"I believe that in addition to the cultivators with ulterior motives, there are also a very small number of people who are bewitched by them. Generally, people with normal intelligence and primary thinking ability know who should count this account and who is the real murderer!"

The blood-colored inner demon scratched his ears and his head sneered.

Li Yao took a deep breath and turned his mind: "There is no need to use a sneer to hide your paleness and weakness. Do you know, what is the biggest problem with this so-called choice?"

"The biggest problem is that human life cannot be measured and is priceless! It is already an infinite thing, multiplied by a hundred times, and the result is the same!"

"It does not mean that the lives of two people must be more important than one person together; nor does it mean that a big man who comes from a wealthy family, handsome and extremely smart, his life must be more valuable than a poor and mediocre citizen!"

"The 8.2 million innocent people on Karan Star and the 100 billion innocent people behind them have the same value!"

"If you deny this, you can 'sacrifice' 8.2 million people for 100 billion people today; you can also 100 billion people tomorrow; you can 100 billion people the day after tomorrow; you can 100 billion people and one person the other one trillion people the day after tomorrow, the former is a little more valuable!"

"In this way, the foundation of human society's existence will disappear, and the number of people who die in the end will far exceed 8.2 million or even 100 billion!"

"Stop talking alarmistly!"

The blood-colored inner demon sneered, "No matter how nonsense you talk, it's just a imagination, I don't believe it!"

"Don't you believe it?"

Li Yao also smiled coldly, "I'm very disappointed, really disappointed! You are my clone at least. Everyone has different positions and their intelligence levels should be almost the same, right? But why did your IQ fall so quickly? It's a cliff-like decline! Even Su Changfa's simple sweet words can't be seen through?"

"Can you become a cultivator and become stupid?"

"Having such a stupid clone as you... I really despise myself!"

"What did you say!"

The blood-colored inner demon was furious and rushed to Ou Yezi's memory tree like a monkey, roaring loudly, "You speak clearly, I can't see through the sweet words? If you don't speak clearly today, I will never finish you!"

“It’s very simple.”

Li Yao calmly said, "Su Changfa just said that Wu Yingqi saved 100 billion people by blowing up Kalanxing and sacrificing 8.2 million people. It sounds like a very cost-effective deal, right?"

The blood-colored inner demon nodded vigorously: "It's very cost-effective!"

"So did he tell us how many people died in the last war between the 'Real Human Empire' against the Holy Alliance and the 'Orthodox Government of the Star Sea Republic'?"

"This is a super civil war that swept hundreds of worlds. It's not too many to die hundreds of billions of people at will, right?"

"How could a civil war break out? Why would the Holy Alliance take advantage of the opportunity?"

"It is because Wu Yingqi's coup that seriously tore up the stable situation of the Xinghai Republic and caused a serious confrontation between cultivators and cultivators!"

"How could the coup be successful? If you trace the root cause, it has a lot to do with the explosion of Kalanxing!"

"So, can we say that Wu Yingqi blew up Kalan Star, sacrificed 8.2 million people, saved 100 billion people, but ultimately led to the deaths of hundreds of billions or even trillions of people?"

Blood-colored inner demon: "This"

Li Yao: "You can see that too. This is a bad debt that cannot be calculated clearly, because 'human life' should not be used to calculate it! As a cultivator, as long as I can adhere to the bottom line, do my best to bloom my heart, no matter what the final outcome is, I can have a clear conscience!"

"How about it, the immortal cultivator, are you satisfied with my positive answer?"

The blood-colored inner demon lay on the branch, his eyes rolled around for a long time, and suddenly chuckled, saying, "Forget it, I've been around, but I've been surrounded by you! I shouldn't have played the same with you at all!"

"Theoretically, maybe you are right. Human life 'should' be priceless, and human life 'should not be' used to compare and weigh trade-offs!"

"But this is just a theory, just 'should'!"

"No matter how singular it is, in the real world, human life is valuable, there is a distinction between high and low, it can be used, and it is often used to compare and weigh the trade-offs!"

"Hehe, the lives of two people may not be more valuable than the lives of one person, but the lives of those rich young men and big men from wealthy families are of course valuable than that of a poor boy from poor background!"

"Every life has its value, nothing more than high or low!"

"The real human empire must be like this, but your beloved Star Federation, wow, what a free, democratic, and equal place. You have parliament, elections, the Basic Law of Cultivation, the core concept of protecting ordinary people, and the cultivator who is willing to become a sword of human civilization. It's really a fairyland on earth and a paradise!"

"Isn't that the case?"

"For you, who was born in a magic weapon grave, struggled to survive as a garbage bug, and had been lucky enough to grow up after thousands of hardships, I still need to pick up a few examples from the depths of your memory and throw you a look on your face?"

"You are lucky. Now you are a Nascent Soul monk, a great man who calls the wind and rain, and is above all, you can be on the same level as the Speaker of the Federation and have a lot of fun. Of course, you can easily say these theoretical nonsense!"

"If you had no adventure, you were still the garbage bug struggling to survive in the tomb of magic weapons, facing the dark, cold and cruel reality, can you still say such things? Will you still believe in the concept of cultivators?"

"No, you will definitely become a cultivator!"

"You and I know it well. This is not a vicious guess, but a fact!"

"I am the condensation of negative emotions, dark memories and cold reality in the depths of your soul, and those negative emotions, dark memories and cold reality, are 'half of Li Yao'! My choice is part of your choice!"

"Acknowledge this, some of you have already recognized the cruel reality and become a cultivator!"

This sentence accurately hit the deepest part of Li Yao's soul.

Li Yao was silent.

The blood-colored inner demon attacked back and laughed: "This is the problem of you cultivators. You dare not face reality at all! The way you talk big and charming sounds like a perfect sound is still illusory 'theory'! We cultivators are the warriors who truly dare to face the bleak reality!"

"You're wrong."

Li Yao was surrounded by invisible flames, and golden lights burst out from the depths of his brain, like the scorching sun passing through the clouds, shining brightly, and an unbreakable golden battle fortress rose slowly from his mind!

He paused word by word, and said softly, "We cultivators are definitely not afraid to face reality!"

"Of course we know how dark, cold, and heavy the reality is!"

"But we will never be as timid and weak as you immortal cultivators, submitting to the heavy pressure of reality without principle, and becoming slaves to reality!"

"No matter how dark, cold and heavy the reality is, we will change it bit by bit with our avenue as we ideally!"

"As long as countless people work together, ideals can become reality!" (To be continued.)
