Chapter 19 - No, This Is Called Lower Dimension Crushing

Justice was the greatest power?

Upon hearing this, all the river goddesses present were shocked.

Before Tan Weili answered their questions, they had actually imagined all kinds of possible answers from him.

They believed that Tan Weili's answer could generally be in three directions.

First, justice was above power.

Secondly, justice was pale in the face of absolute power.

Third, justice was, of course, equal to power!

After all, absolute power itself represented justice.

After all, the winner was the embodiment of justice!

However, Tan Weili's answer was beyond the goddesses' expectations. It reached a realm that they had never thought of.

A river goddess said in disbelief, "Young pharaoh, justice is only a position, a belief. How can you treat it as a form of power?"

"Why can't I?"

Tan Weili asked, "In your opinion, what exactly is justice?"

What was justice?

This question stunned all the river goddesses.

The concept of justice was a new concept in the current Egypt. Otherwise, as one of the main gods who represented royalty and law in Egypt, Horus would not have been one of the later gods to be born.

And the reason why the concept of justice had just been born could be traced back to the living environment of human beings in primitive society.

In a primitive society, the living conditions of humans were extremely harsh.

People were constantly struggling for survival, and there was no room for choice.

Everything was the best choice and the worst choice.

Naturally, there was no distinction between good and evil.

It was only when human productivity continued to develop and private ownership emerged that people would have a choice in the issue of survival.

It was only when a choice appeared that it would bring about a difference, and in turn, bring about evil and justice!

At this time, the Egyptian civilization had been born less than 500 years ago.

Justice, on the other hand, was a concept that originated from people's simple thoughts. It was not the concept of justice that was first proposed by a great philosopher and then popularized in everyone's heart.

Naturally, both gods and humans had a very general understanding of the concept of justice.

As a person who had received an education in the 21st century, Tan Weili's view of justice was more professional than all the gods of this era.

He saw that the river goddesses were unable to give an accurate definition of justice, so he said, "The so-called justice is actually a choice to allow more people to live a better life."

"Therefore, justice itself can attract more people to worship, admire, and respect it."

"If justice is suppressed by power, then we have to ask this question. Why is justice so pale and powerless? Why can't justice organize and call more people to join and form a power stronger than the power that suppresses it?"

"In this case, I can only think of one answer. The power that suppresses justice is actually justice itself!"

"And that pale justice is pale because it is a position that only a few people can benefit from, and so only a few people will choose to comply."

"Any kind of pale justice is actually a kind of false and selfish justice that regards most people as ants and only cares about themselves!"

"People who consider problems from the perspective of justice have never considered problems from the perspective of the majority. They have never respected the interests of the majority."

"How can you call this justice?"

If Tan Weili had put his thoughts on the internet in the 21st century, people with different opinions might have argued with him for 300 rounds.

However, in this era where human civilization had just begun, his point of view could be said to be a lower dimension crushing.

Because Tan Weili's point of view was too advanced, the logic of his speech was at a level where the gods of this era could not find logical loopholes.

Therefore, the river goddesses could only look at each other, unable to say a word.

Looking at the silent river goddesses, Tan Weili smiled and asked, "Is everyone satisfied with my answer?"

After hearing Tan Weili's question, the river goddesses looked at each other and sighed in unison.

At the end of the day, they were just gods who pursued the truth, not internet trolls who stirred up trouble for their own stand.

So, when they found that Tan Weili's speech was flawless, these goddesses no longer felt conflicted.

One of the river goddesses said, "Young pharaoh, your point of view is very novel and unique. We are very inspired."

"We can't judge whether your answer is right or wrong."

"But no matter what, we are convinced by your wisdom. So, we have decided to help you enter the territory of the Evernight Kingdom!"

"That's great!"

Hearing this, Tan Weili didn't have time to react, but Bastet, who was beside him, perked up her ears happily.

She patted Tan Weili's shoulder and said, "You're really something, Horus! I didn't know you were so good at talking."

"Alright, I'm done!"

Ra suddenly said, "Since you've decided to go to the Evernight Kingdom together, let's not delay any further and set off quickly!"

It was obvious that Ra had been hiding his thoughts to avoid others seeing his weak side.

However, he was still very concerned about his daughter, who had lost control because of the divine power of the sun.

Thus, Tan Weili, Bastet, and the Twelve River Goddesses left the Palace of Ra.

...

Looking at Tan Weili and Bastet's departing figures, Shu felt that there was nothing to do, so he bade farewell to God Ra.

However, when he looked at Tefnut and asked if she wanted to leave with him, Tefnut said, "I still have something to do, you can go on your own!"

Shu seemed to have sensed his wife's thoughts, so he warned, "Horus is Osiris' son. You have to be careful of your actions!"

Upon hearing this, Tefnut nodded.

So the couple left the Palace of Ra.

After leaving the palace, Tefnut headed southwest. She passed through the border of Egypt and arrived in Ethiopia.

In the palace of Ethiopia, she met Set, who was indulging in his passion.

Looking at Set's lustful and chaotic palace, Tefnut said in disdain, "I was wondering how strong Set, who was once the guardian of Ra and protected him from the attacks of the Netherworld demons, was."

"It seems that you're just a good-for-nothing who only knows how to indulge in lust!"

Hearing this, Set became angry.

When he saw that the person who ridiculed him was Tefnut, Set said in a deep voice, "Did you come here because of God Ra's intentions? He wants to punish me for killing Osiris?"

"Father doesn't know I am here. I came to you on my own accord."

Tefnut's voice was high and might as she spoke to Set in a condescending manner.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Set asked, "If that's the case, why have you come to me, Princess Tefnut?"

"It's nothing. I just wanted to confirm something. Did you accidentally hear that Horus has just left the Palace of Ra and is preparing to head to the Evernight Kingdom?"
