Chapter 678: Chapter 436: A Lock

"So-called love is but an illusion, a mere fig leaf," the Supreme of the Blue Waves said coldly.

Those who shared his view were not in the minority.

After all, it was a fact that the Golden Holy Emperor had betrayed the interests of All Heavens.

However, at this moment, many people, upon seeing the starlight that the Golden Holy Emperor had transformed into, fell into contemplation.

Take, for instance, the Origin of Ten Thousand Realms at this moment.

As the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning had said, the Primordial Source should not possess too many emotions, but at this time, the Origin of Ten Thousand Realms seemed to recall something, showing a complex expression.

Or take, for example, the Master of the Tower of Time from the Secret Forces, whose eyes were full of resolve.

The love of the Golden Holy Emperor, and such an act, received mixed reviews, each holding their own perspective.

Of course, the most heartbroken at this time was none other than Miao!

The emotions among the Guardians of the Five Elements had always been strong, and the relationship between Jin and Miao had actually never been disclosed.

The rest also understood but did not speak of it.

Jin’s sudden death was definitely a major blow to Miao, and it was tough on others like Yang Mei as well.

"The Golden Holy Emperor colluded with the enemy, his death is not regrettable. In my view, the Miao Realm Saint Emperor should also be detained and interrogated thoroughly to avoid any oversights," the Supreme of Light stated.

For a portion of the Supremes, what they valued more was the act of rebellion committed by the Golden Holy Emperor.

And not the reasons behind his rebellion.

From their standpoint, to make such a demand was not particularly excessive.

"Supreme of Light, though Jin was wrong, there were reasons for his actions, and he died full of guilt. All he did was for Miao’s survival. Now that Jin is dead, there is no need to be so harsh on Miao!" the Earth Saint Emperor said hoarsely.

The Earth Saint Emperor, who controlled the way of the earth, had the most imposing figure and was also the most sincere.

He was born in this Epoch, just like Yang Mei and Di Jun, considered as newly born Guardians, only somewhat earlier than the latter two.

He was very close to both the Golden Holy Emperor and the Miao Realm Saint Emperor.

Now, hearing the Supreme of Light speak of detaining and interrogating Miao, the Earth Saint Emperor thought it was a bit too much.

Yang Mei could hardly bear it and spoke out, "Supreme of Light, we, the Guardians of the Five Elements, have fought in the Myriad Realms for countless years, not knowing how many Guardians have died because of All Heavens.

Miao was completely unaware, and whether or not she is a traitor, can it not be discerned through the gathered consciousness? Why make such a fuss?"

However, the Supreme of Light only snorted coldly, "The Golden Holy Emperor rebelled, and you four should all bear guilt. As the Saint Emperors of the Guardians of the Five Elements, you should prioritize the safeguarding of All Heavens. You have set a terrible example for the strong in All Heavens,

If treated lightly, how will others view our Myriad Realms? Would all those strong who betray All Heavens no longer need to be accountable?"

The counter-question from the Supreme of Light was logical and well-founded.

According to his statement, collective punishment was necessary.

"Light, the contributions made by the Lord of the Guardian of the Five Elements’ world to the Myriad Realms are witnessed by all. If we could have resolved it, Jin would not have come to this point," the Supreme of the Spirit Realm spoke.

She was speaking in defense of the Golden Holy Emperor.

"Exactly, why come to this? After all, the collected consciousness only revealed Jin; surely Miao was unaware, and her guilt cannot extend to her," remarked the Supreme of Origin, who largely shared the viewpoint of the Supreme of the Spirit Realm.

For a time, the Supremes were divided into two factions.

The same was true for the strong ones of the Myriad Realms.

One side felt that the Golden Holy Emperor had justifiable reasons for his actions and had already paid with his life.

The other side believed that the Golden Holy Emperor had betrayed All Heavens, had sold out the Myriad Realms, and was unforgivably guilty; Miao should also be held accountable.

However, before they could determine who was right, a voice suddenly rose, "You... were too foolish, if you die, how could I possibly live alone..."

Miao Realm Saint Emperor looked at the vibrant life-giving poso flower before her, a smile spreading across her face.

This smile, breathtakingly beautiful, also caused everyone to shudder, sending a tremor through their hearts.

Then, under everyone’s gaze, the Miao Realm Saint Emperor raised her hand.

That flower, representing life and capable of reversing time, instantly turned into nothingness, dissipating in front of the Miao Realm Saint Emperor.

"This..."

Everyone could clearly see that the poso flower was not stored by the Miao Realm Saint Emperor nor was it completely absorbed.

It was mercilessly destroyed in the hands of the Miao Realm Saint Emperor.

This treasure, capable of instantaneously healing all wounds, a jewel not even possessed by the Origin Supreme, nor discovered by the Origin of Ten Thousand Realms,

were relics of the Golden Holy Emperor’s betrayal of his faith, the sacrifice of his life.

Yet in this moment, it was destroyed by the Miao Realm Saint Emperor?

They were somewhat baffled.

"Perhaps, from the moment the Golden Holy Emperor fell, the Miao Realm Saint Emperor never thought of living alone," someone concluded, sighing deeply.

In that moment, everyone else came to the same understanding.

All they had seen was the sacrifice of the Golden Holy Emperor, his dedication to love.

But for the Miao Realm Saint Emperor, this was simply not fair.

She too was willing to sacrifice herself for love; if the Golden Holy Emperor had been in danger, she too could have selflessly given everything, all of herself.

Subsequently, amid everyone’s sighs, amid everyone’s murmurs, the Miao Realm Saint Emperor, just like the Golden Holy Emperor, also transformed into a vast expanse of starlight...

Under everyone’s gaze, the starlight that the Miao Realm Saint Emperor had become drifted towards the chaos beyond the Myriad Realms.
