Chapter 153: Chapter 83 [Reversed Celestial Spirit Ah!] (7000 words)_3

You Su Yi squinted her eyes, but in the slits of her eyes, something near zeal seemed to emerge.

"Then, Lord Chen Jue finally rushed back..."

This gravely injured old fox suddenly struggled to stand up from the stone platform!

Excitedly, she extended her trembling hand and swiftly spun one finger. On the wall of the stone chamber, a buzzing sound was heard, and then, several lines of words were inscribed by her spell from a distance!!

"On the fourth day of June, an evil invaded Luoyan Town, Town General Jiang Yu perished in a fierce battle, and the Beacon Platform was lost!

Deputy Town General Chen Jue, with one person and one sword, ascended the Town Platform. With a single sword, he slew over forty-seven thousand evils!

The siege was lifted!"

That last stroke of the word "lifted" extended downward, carrying beneath the brushstroke a sharp killing intent and heroic spirit!!

In You Su Yi’s eyes, an endless radiance appeared; her expression was almost fanatically enthusiastic, and faintly, it seemed as if she was recalling the scene from that day...

·

Amidst the muddy heavens and earth, on the solitary guarding platform, flames of warfare erupted in all directions, and the ground was covered with corpses.

A lone figure cloaked in golden armor, the armor battered and stained with blood! Holding a sword in one hand, standing atop the solitary city’s Beacon Platform, he slowly swung the sword!

With a single slash, the brilliance overwhelmed the heavens and earth. The countless figures on the vast plains, those clinging to the city platform like ants... were reduced to ashes under that stream of sword light!

·

Chen Yan’s eyes widened as he stare at those few lines of bold, soaring words on the wall...

Although he did not witness it with his own eyes, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of stirring emotions!

One person, one sword, ascending the city to slay enemies, annihilating over forty-seven thousand!!

My father... is quite formidable, huh!

Thinking this, he again stared at the words on the wall, lingering on the character "Evil" for a long time.

So, it’s this "sui"...

Evil... What on earth is it? Have the people of the Domain Realm always been fighting against such a thing?

·

Only then did You Su Yi suddenly return to her senses. Looking at the few lines she had carved into the wall, she said, "Just these few lines, not a single word will differ. Because this was the battle report that was transmitted from the town guard post after the battle... At the time, the battle’s aftermath was so severe that I was temporarily designated as the Town Army scribe.

This battle report, every word of it, I personally wrote by hand..."

Sighing, You Su Yi continued, "I will never forget it for the rest of my life!"

Chen Yan silently gazed at the words on the wall and after watching for a while, he finally looked away: "If that’s the case, then Chen Jue should be considered a great hero."

You Su Yi sighed: "If it were only so... He should have been a hero.

But later... Just after he had slain over forty-seven thousand enemies, he stood on the Town Platform and did something utterly confounding to everyone..."

"What did he do?"

You Su Yi’s expression turned strange. After a moment of silence, she slowly said, "He pointed his sword to the sky and cursed the Heavenly Dao."

Chen Yan: "..."

Cursed the Heavenly Dao?

Chen Yan’s expression also turned peculiar.

From the records, no matter the race, no matter the cultivation practice, all revered the Heavenly Dao, and the ultimate pursuit was to achieve enlightenment through the Primordial Qi and fate given by the Heavenly Dao.

A cultivator, in front of the public, pointing to the sky and cursing the Heavenly Dao.

It was as if a monk stood in the grand hall of a temple, cursing at the statue of Buddha.

Reversed Celestial Spirit!

Reversed Celestial Spirit indeed!!

"This man... certainly has guts!" Chen Yan couldn’t help but mutter, then quickly asked, "What did he curse about?"

You Su Yi’s expression became profoundly intense, and she also seemed to swallow hard before speaking:

"He cursed, saying that this war which had lasted for ten thousand years should never have existed.

He cursed that the people of the Domain Realm should never have been sacrificed generation after generation, letting countless creatures perish on the Town Platforms in this catastrophe of war!

He cursed the Heavenly Dao for setting the ’Saint Position with a fixed number’, thirty-six Venerables, four Earth Venerables and two Celestial Venerables, totaling forty-two Saint Positions... this rule is utterly redundant and absurd!

He cursed that due to this absurd rule of the Heavenly Dao, numerous brilliant talents, all prodigies of the heavens, were stuck under the Saint Position, wasting their whole lives! Even though they had extraordinary talents, they could not become Venerables and Saints because of the forty-two limit on Saint Positions!

He cursed that if it weren’t for this dogshit rule, the Domain Realm would have produced hundreds and thousands, even tens of thousands, of Venerables and Saints!

He cursed that if the Domain Realm had hundreds of Celestial Venerables, thousands of Earth Venerables, and tens of thousands of regular Venerables... the evil would have been obliterated long ago, preventing countless creatures from this suffering, and avoiding generations of people dying on the Town Platforms..."

As Chen Yan listened, he couldn’t help but shout inwardly: Damn!!

This... truly takes courage!

The man and the fox locked eyes for a while, both seeing in each other’s eyes an emotion akin to flames.

After a while, You Su Yi lightly coughed twice, turned her head, and sighed softly.

Chen Yan thought for a moment, then said: "So just because of these few words... just because he cursed the Heavenly Dao in public, his reputation became disgraceful?"

You Su Yi shook her head: "Not really."

She shook her head: "Cursing the Heavenly Dao in public only made his reputation mixed. At most, it made people feel that he was untamed, arrogant, and rebellious."

... Indeed. Chen Yan nodded.

Not just in the Domain Realm, even in this world, there are always people with extreme opinions who say things that seem outrageous.

Regardless of whether what they say is right or wrong, the world never lacks such individuals.

To say that because of this, a person would become infamous seems a bit exaggerated, especially considering Chen Jue’s significant achievements. It wouldn’t make sense for people to call for his demise either.
