Dawn is Approaching (37)

"It seems that you have no objection to the old man presiding over this trial alone......"

Long Chi's gaze was like a goshawk patrolling the territory, sweeping over the faces of everyone in the room at this moment, and the people who were swept by his old but still sharp eyes all lowered their heads, and no one dared to stand up and make any rebuttals.

And Tai Fu, the only one who had the strength and qualifications to refute, lowered his head in convincing himself before Long Chi's eyes swept over.

"Ahem, it's ironic, I didn't expect me to have such a day."

After all the people in the room lowered their heads to express their willingness to obey, Long Chi stroked the table in front of him, and looked at Li Mu directly opposite, but the divine light in his eyes seemed to see a more distant past through Li Mu.

"Since the other old fellows are not coming, your decision will be determined by my opinion alone."

"Well, I'm the only one who is more unlucky, and I happened to get the next lottery, so I have to be responsible for this unlucky errand alone......"

Once, when Long Chi was still young and a newcomer to the 'realm of people', he came here with his teacher and heard it.

Once, it was what Long Chi heard when he brought his students here to observe after he was already a powerhouse in the 'Earth Realm'......

Coupled with the sentence that Long Chi himself said, the three sentences spanned nearly a hundred years, and used different tones and rhetoric to tell the same meaning.

"History, always in something inconsequential, strikingly similar......"

Long Chi tapped his fingers on the table in front of him with one hand, sighing so softly.

For the first time, Long Chi was still young, and at that time, the person sitting in the presiding seat announced the verdict of 'guilty'. Then, just as everything had already been written on a piece of paper, the person being interrogated suddenly burst out with a combat power no less than the 'realm of earth' with the 'realm of people' without warning, and after injuring the chief judge, he escaped.

The second time, it was still this court, in addition to the peak of the 'Earth Realm', the chief judge who was about to step into the legendary 'Heaven Realm', and there were more than a dozen strong people like Long Chi who had just stepped into the 'Earth Realm'.

The presiding judge then handed down a verdict of 'not guilty' and the interrogated person was released on the spot.

"You're called Li Mu, right?"

The boring recollection did not affect Long Chi to do his right thing, even if the reflection in his eyes was still those who had been, but Long Chi still asked like this.

Before answering, Li Mu glanced at the direction of Houtu, although Houtu had told Li Mu bluntly that he could not trust anyone in the 'order' organization, but at this moment, Li Mu still subconsciously put Houtu into his circle.

After receiving the faint nod of the earth, Li Mu's nervous mood eased slightly, nodded and said, "Yes, yes." ā€

"With someone like Houtu standing behind you, I don't want to say boring official words......"

As he said this, Long Chi raised his head and glanced at Hou Tu, although Hou Tu still covered his entire face with his hood, but in the face of Long Chi's gaze, he honestly bowed his head apologetically, which was regarded as expressing his apology to Long Chi.

Facing the apology from Houtu, Long Chi just waved his hand, turned his head to look at Li Mu again, coughed lightly, adjusted his face, and made his expression look as serious as possible, and then asked Li Mu.

"When you have nothing, when the person who left you with nothing is still alive in this world, and you are responsible for the safety of this world, are you willing to give up revenge for the sake of this world?"

"I ......"

Hearing Long Chi's question, Li Mu subconsciously wanted to answer, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything anyway.

Li Mu wanted to say, "I do." ā€

But the first time he met the blue sky, he mistakenly recognized the long-haired pink corpse on the ground as the feeling he experienced when he mistook it for Li Linlin, but it suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart, like a huge mouth that devoured everything, swallowing up his entire heart, leaving only a black hole.

Because he had experienced the feeling of having nothing, Li Mu understood that he was not the kind of saint he thought, when he had nothing, would this world still exist, and did it still have anything to do with him?

"I'm not going to be left with nothing!"

In the end, Li Mu replied.

"Well, I see."

Long Chi sighed like this, his bent fingers slammed on the table, and he never lifted it again.

"The world? There was nothing but darkness before my eyes. ā€

Seventy years ago, when the convicted man returned to kill again, someone tried to persuade him to give up his revenge with words like 'the safety of the world,' but all he received was answered.

"The world? Haha, haha. ā€

Seventeen years ago, when the man who was found innocent turned into a demon and returned from killing, some people tried to persuade him to give up revenge with words like 'the safety of the world', but what he got was such a bloody and tearful laugh.

"The world? I have protected this world for fifteen years! Fifteen years! I'm fighting with all my might every day! But what about you?! I can't even protect my only bond in this world! ā€

After laughing wildly, the man shouted like this, even if only one person faced hundreds of people of his rank, he did not have the slightest fear, as if it was no longer a human soul that dominated that body, but a hatred that was thick to the extreme.

"What if...... If she had died on the battlefield, in the battle against those exiles, I would have nothing to say. But, but she died in the safest organization base in the world! I have been fighting day and night for fifteen years to protect this world, but my only one, my whole world, has died in the safest place I feel! ā€

After shouting, the man began to cry, blood mixed with tears, from the corners of his eyes, he was alone, in front of hundreds of people crying, but the hundreds of people all bowed their heads, and none of them dared to raise their heads to look at his eyes that had been stained red with blood and tears.

"Now, you tell me, is the world safe?"

After laughing, shouting, and crying, the man lowered his head, but the sword that burned with black fire in his hand was raised.

"My world, long since it was destroyed, is in your hands."

The man's deep words still echoed in Long Chi's ears.

"Guilty, innocent, it's all inconsequential trivial......"

Looking at Li Mu sitting there, Long Chi seemed to see the shadow of the person seventeen years ago, the shadow of the person seventy years ago, and the shadow of the person for thousands of generations since the awakening of the collective consciousness of mankind.

"The only thing that can prevent that from happening is here, to erase you, those who are involved with you, the source of all this!"

Long Chi said leisurely, as if he was talking about a trivial matter in daily life, but a ray of light passed through countless light years, through layers of barriers, and as Long Chi's words fell, it shone straight on Long Chi's body.

The calm and waveless courtroom, without warning, was windy.
