Chapter Seventy-Four: The Gods and the Temple
As a temple at the highest center of power in the human world, the Temple Maiden has always been a glorious and glorious title in the eyes of the world.
But only when you really become a saint can you know that the truth is not as beautiful as you imagined, and the essence of the saint is just a tool of the temple to control human beings.
To be honest, since Yuan Qingwu understood the true meaning of her identity as a saint, she didn't have much good feelings for the title of saint, and even wanted to escape.
Many people don't know about God, so naturally they don't know about the temple, let alone the temple saint.
All the gods in this world, according to the chronological order of entering this world, can actually be divided into three groups.
The first group was Emperor Yuanhua and a group of soldiers led by him, who became victims of the battle between the gods of the heavenly court and the Holy Spirit clan, and were trapped in this world forever.
The second group is the Arctic God of War Xuanbi Xingjun and a group of soldiers led by him, they are also victims of the power struggle of the Heavenly Court, and the Heavenly Court has made them ethereal promises, which also make them complete militants, and their goal is simply to completely eliminate the Holy Spirit Clan.
The third group is a group of female fairies led by Fang Chang and Fang E's fairy sisters, although their lives in this world are not forced, but they inevitably cannot escape their tragic fate, and have become a tool for Heaven to pacify the soldiers.
The goal of the Heavenly Court is very simple, that is, to fight a protracted war with the Holy Spirit Clan, and the Heavenly Court can send a steady stream of materials into this world, in this world without the replenishment of spiritual energy, as long as the Heavenly Court soldiers work hard enough, then one day they can wipe out all the people of the Holy Spirit Clan.
Heavenly Court cannot allow the Holy Spirit Clan to fend for itself in this world, and Heavenly Court must watch the Holy Spirit Clan disappear with its own eyes.
However, Heavenly Court's plan was completely frustrated, they did not expect that the Holy Spirit Clan had created a way to survive in this world for a long time, and they also found that the Holy Spirit Clan had hope of leaving, and Heavenly Court naturally would not sit idly by, they tried their best to destroy the Holy Spirit Clan's plan, so that the Holy Spirit Clan fell short, which is also the reason why the strength of Feng Carp, Xiong Ting, Shouyu, Wujiu and others has been greatly weakened.
Since the war in the Heavenly Court was basically settled, the Heavenly Court naturally had a lot less to worry about the remnants of these Holy Spirit Clans, so when it knew that it could not completely wipe out the Holy Spirit Clan, Heavenly Court resolutely decided to completely abandon this world, and completely sealed it with all the human gods and gods inside.
Once people fall into a desperate situation, they often do many extremely terrible things, and God is no exception, God is not like the rumors that he has no feelings, God is just higher than ordinary humans in strength and lifespan.
Therefore, when he knew that there was no hope of leaving this world, as a brother who had been born and died with Emperor Yuanhua, the Arctic God of War Xuanbi Xingjun chose to betray, he wanted to satisfy his desire for power in this human world.
After a period of chaos, the final result was that Emperor Yuanhua disappeared completely, and Fairy Fang Chang avenged her husband Emperor Yuanhua, and stabbed the Arctic God of War Xuanbi Xingjun, and finally ended up with a fragrant and jade death, and in the end, the owner of the temple fell on the head of Fang Chang's sister, Fang E.
And Fairy Fang E has another identity, that is, the wife of the Arctic God of War Xuanbi Xingjun, like her sister, Fang E is also an admirer of Emperor Yuanhua, but in the end, she hated when she loved it, and finally became a husband and wife with Xuanbi Xingjun.
Fang E participated in the betrayal of Emperor Yuanhua, Fang E originally thought that the feeling of revenge would make her very happy, but in the end it only brought regret, and in the face of all the complicated consequences, Fang E could only put that feeling back in her heart again.
Fang E is not interested in the struggle for power, and she does not have much nostalgia for some complicated things in the world, so most of Fang E's life is in a state of meditation, and most of the affairs of the temple are decided by the six elders of the temple.
This naturally includes the choice of each generation of saints, of course, not so much as choices, but each generation of saints constantly rotating between the six elder families.
The task of each generation of saints is to preach miracles, support faith, and act as oracles, and each saint is to win the faith of the people in the foreground for the god represented behind her family.
The saints are not easy to do, it is more of a chore, just with a glorious halo to cover up the falsehood behind them, they are just victims of the interests of the family, they lost their freedom early, and from the very beginning they were instilled with various ideas by the family, and became a tool for obtaining benefits and power.
Yuan Qingwu is an exception, not only because she has the aristocratic status of a royal child that most people envy, and it was decided at birth that he will not be tied up in too many mundane chores, but also because he is the only designated next-generation saint of Fang E, who has been the master of the temple for thousands of years.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, which naturally caused the unwarranted suspicion of the six elders, but Fairy Fang E did not make any explanation, and then retreated again, and the attitudes of the major elders towards Yuan Qingwu were also different.
Due to Yuan Qingwu's special identity, Yuan Qingwu was not instilled with any special concepts when she was a child, and as the only teacher, Fang E only required her to be able to practice hard, so the talented and intelligent Yuan Qingwu was naturally carefree when she was young, and had a completely different personality and attitude from Yuan Qingwu's senior sisters.
Until Yuan Qingwu really grew up and left the temple, the only task given to him by his master Fang E was only to find the traces of Emperor Yuanhua, Yuan Qingwu did not know the story that happened between Master Fang E and Emperor Yuanhua, so he could only keep this task firmly in mind, and did what those ordinary saints did the rest of the time.
It wasn't until she came to Gu'an City that Yuan Qingwu's life trajectory and outlook on life changed dramatically, and the source of the change was her senior sister.
The world before Yuan Qingwu was simple, but this simple world will always be ruthlessly exposed, revealing to you the ruthlessness and darkness of this world.
Chi Qiu is the senior sister of Yuan Qingwu, if there is no appearance of Yuan Qingwu or no direct designation from Fang E, she should be the saint selected by the temple of this generation, of course, she still has an identity as a shadow saint.
This is her master Chi Su, the most powerful fairy besides Fang E, and the great elder among the six elders, who has produced the most saints in the history of the temple, and the rules formulated by her, in order to prevent those who died suddenly during the saint's tenure, the candidate saints who were prepared, as long as the contemporary saints have accidents, the shadow saints will immediately replace them as a new generation of saints.
The meaning of this is naturally self-evident, but Fairy Fang E has not raised any objections, and the other elders can only let it develop.
Yuan Qingwu originally went to Gu'an City to deal with a pagan incident, and someone reported to the temple that there were a large number of pagans in Gu'an City.
There is a deep-rooted rule in the human world, that is, only the gods in the temple can be worshipped, that is, Fairy Fang E plus the remaining six elders, and the worship of other gods will be absolutely forbidden.
The solution is simple, as long as the pagan gods are clear and clean, and then perform miracles and edifications to worship new gods, the matter can be considered a perfect solution.
It's just that what Yuan Qingwu didn't expect was that the gods worshiped by these pagans turned out to be Emperor Yuanhua, and the place where they were located was also rumored to be related to the treasure of Emperor Yuanhua.
And Yuan Qingwu didn't expect to meet his senior sister Chi Qiu in Gu'an City, Yuan Qingwu didn't know the identity of Chi Qiu's shadow saintess, so when Chi Qiu suddenly appeared in front of Yuan Qingwu, Yuan Qingwu was excited and surprised.
However, Chi Qiu's attitude towards the infidels is significantly different from Yuan Qingwu, the senior sister Chi Qiu showed obvious malice towards Emperor Yuanhua, Chi Qiu's solution was to kill all the infidels, and the reason was that those with ulterior motives deliberately did it, that is, in order to challenge the bottom line of the temple, they must be killed to set an example.
Yuan Qingwu naturally disagreed, she was kind in nature and naturally would not allow this extinction to happen, everyone has a life, and everyone's life is worthy of respect, so Yuan Qingwu forcibly frustrated her senior sister Chi Qiu's idea as a contemporary saint.
However, Chi Qiu did not give up her conspiracy against Yuan Qingwu, she knew more about the treasures of Emperor Yuanhua than Yuan Qingwu, so the two chose to enter Gu'an City together in a situation where everyone was watching.
Illusions, gravity fields, and heavenly thunder, the levels did not let Yuan Qingwu die in an accident, so Chi Qiu could only take action by himself, and chose one of the flying sword arrays flying in the sky to insert it into Yuan Qingwu's body.
Fortunately, although Yuan Qingwu is much younger than Qi Congqiu, his talent and hard work make Yuan Qingwu's strength much higher than that of Congqiu, so although the unguarded Yuan Qingwu was attacked by Congqiu, he did not completely put Yuan Qingwu to death.
After listening to her senior sister Chi Qiu's impassioned and kind explanation, Yuan Qingwu understood the truth of the matter, and under the sister's carelessness, she got rid of her sister's control and fled to the temple.
When Senior Sister Chi Qiu also entered the temple, she found that there was no trace of Yuan Qingwu at all, in fact, they all entered an independent space, and it was not until the appearance of Ape Yang that they walked out of that independent space together.
Yuan Qingwu was also able to give herself enough time to heal herself in that independent space.
