Chapter 120 - Chapter 120: The Empress's Remnant Soul, A Shocking Conspiracy

The other cultivators couldn't help but twitch their lips upon hearing these words.

If they were in the Human Emperor's place, being misunderstood and constantly insulted by the human race, it would already be extremely merciful not to retaliate and give them a bloody lesson.

Expecting him to step forward during a crisis for the human race? That was utterly ridiculous.

The Human Emperor was the human race's ruler, but his current achievements were largely due to the ancient sages and the legacy of the Human Ancestral Temple. What did they have to do with the current human race?

After the Human Emperor successfully achieved the position of Emperor through the Dao of humanity, hadn't he already done enough for the human race?

Not only did he bestow the divine sound of the Great Dao and pass down supreme orthodoxy, but he also didn't keep the Human Emperor Seal, an unrivaled immortal artifact, for himself. Instead, he used it to suppress the luck of the human race and ensure their eternal prosperity.

Which of these deeds didn't showcase the Human Emperor's deep love for the human race?

He guarded the human race out of affection, not obligation. Even if he allowed the human race to fend for themselves, it wouldn't be unreasonable.

Before the Human Emperor, how many human cultivators treated ordinary humans no differently from outsiders, killing and plundering without hesitation!

The Human Emperor not attacking the human race was already considered extremely merciful.

Yet, these cultivators now morally coerced him, using this to slander the Human Emperor, which was quite irritating.

However, among the many strong cultivators present, none would openly express these thoughts, preferring to grumble silently.

Therefore, many cultivators still stood on their moral high ground, basking in the golden light, like reincarnations of saints, and loudly proclaimed, "The Human Emperor is truly petty. It was just a misunderstanding, but he chose not to intervene in the human race's survival due to this. How narrow-minded!"

Those who didn't speak couldn't help but roll their eyes upon hearing this.

Everyone could say good things. If you were insulted by countless ordinary people, you would probably have already retaliated with a bloody massacre.

Although they felt some resentment, they didn't speak up.

After all, the Human Emperor was the universally condemned demon.

Everyone wanted to denounce him, and defending him might provoke a collective backlash.

In the scene.

The figure who looked exactly like Chu Yang was surrounded by endless murderous aura, his face twisted in a sinister smile.

He laughed like a ghastly ghost, "Chu Yang!"

"I told you back then, I would make your life worse than death, abandoned by all, living a lonely life without understanding!"

"Even though I died, I share a unique bond with Yao Guang, coexisting in one body. If you want to kill me, that means killing her too!"

"Hehe!"

"Are you willing to harm her?"

"Are you?"

"Even if I stand before you now, what can you do? If you have the guts, kill me!"

"Please, kill me!"

...

Outside the Emperor's mirror, seeing this almost demonic Yao Guang, everyone's hearts pounded.

They all simultaneously recalled the last words of the Heavenly Demon Emperor before his death.

Kill her, or not?

Those words, now echoed by Empress Yao Guang, seemed to resonate with the past, as if reflecting a chilling conspiracy.

From the beginning, it was clear that the Heavenly Demon Emperor had been involved in this shocking plot.

Realizing this, all the cultivators were immensely shocked.

They recalled how the Heavenly Demon Emperor, after being slain by the Human Emperor, transformed his will into a ghostly face and chanted a mysterious curse, which then turned into a strand of evil aura and entered Empress Yao Guang's body.

At that moment, something obscure seemed to awaken within her.

Now it was apparent that it must have been the remnant soul of the Empress.

A body with two souls!

Furthermore, they sensed that Empress Yao Guang's power continuously surged as if she was regaining her true strength.

Everything began to make sense.

The cultivators felt a sudden enlightenment.

However, realizing this also made them feel an immense horror.

Such a meticulous and cruel design was solely to utterly ruin the Human Emperor's reputation, causing his image among the human race to collapse and leaving him with an eternal stigma!

It was unimaginable that if the Human Emperor hadn't been suppressed by the Heavenly Emperor's mirror, revealing all the past events, this infamy would have persisted forever.

"Why wouldn't the Human Emperor explain himself? Even now, if he spoke to the human race, he wouldn't have to bear all this!"

Some cultivators still couldn't comprehend why the Human Emperor chose to silently endure.

But others couldn't help but curse, "Foolish!"

"Having seen all this, do you still not understand?"

"The true culprit behind the massacre of the human race is Empress Yao Guang. The Human Emperor chose to bear it all alone because he didn't want her to carry this burden and feel guilty for what happened!"

Hearing this, all the cultivators were suddenly enlightened! They were also deeply moved by the Human Emperor's actions!

They hadn't expected that, even at this point, the Human Emperor still worried about Empress Yao Guang's potential endless guilt if she learned the truth.

Not far away, Empress Yao Guang trembled as she witnessed this, her lips quivering uncontrollably.

Her cold eyes flashed with complex emotions.

Everyone knew how deeply pained Empress Yao Guang must feel after learning the truth.

Not far away, Ye Fan couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

His face turned alternately pale and green, clearly sickened.

He had always anticipated the Human Emperor's brutal, bloodthirsty deeds but didn't expect this outcome.

He had expected to witness the Human Emperor's cruelty, savagery, and inhumanity, yet the narrative had changed drastically, becoming absurd!

Ye Fan could never have imagined that the truth behind these events would be so bizarre.

Now, instead of cursing the Human Emperor, the cultivators admired him even more.

Additionally, knowing all this, Empress Yao Guang had become the most unstable factor!

A single misstep, and she might turn against them...

In the Heavenly Emperor's mirror.

At this moment, Yao Guang had reverted to her original appearance, but her face was filled with resentment, and ghostly wails echoed faintly around her.

Seeing this familiar face, Chu Yang's expression was chillingly indifferent.

He didn't speak; his eyes were icy cold.

He couldn't believe that this malicious woman would go so far as to slaughter tens of thousands of humans and use his own sister to exact revenge on him.

This filled Chu Yang with immense fury.

He immediately shouted, "Come!"

His voice roared like divine thunder across the heavens, shaking the entire Myriad Spirit Continent.

A terrifying human will burst from Chu Yang's body, shooting into the sky, collapsing the surrounding space, and exerting pressure across the ages.

Next, the Primordial Bell appeared in the heavens, emanating a terrifying aura.

Golden rays of light fell, transforming into shackles that firmly suppressed Yao Guang.

However, despite the ferocious look on Yao Guang's face, she showed no fear and even laughed more wildly!

"Hehe!"

"Chu Yang, do you only dare to suppress? Are you reluctant to kill her?"

"Coward, if you have the guts, kill me!"
