Chapter 162: Choice
With the narration of the candle dragon, the events of the year appeared in front of us little by little.
Under the combined effect of the power of creation and the power of the demons, Chi You finally obtained the 10,000-year-old destiny that countless people dreamed of, and since then he has lived with heaven and earth, the sun and the moon with the light, and as time slowly passes, his cultivation will naturally grow to a point where no one is invincible.
However, just when Chi You had just accepted such a reality and was about to return to Shenzhou with Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor to make up for the mistakes he made by being bewitched by the demons, Dayu made a serious request to Chi You on the premise of the world's common people.
The request in Dayu's mouth is to ask Chiyou to give up the opportunity to clear his name, hide in the land of Shenzhou with his eternal and immortal life, and be ready to deal with Luo Hu's next plan to destroy the human race.
There is no doubt that when Chi You heard Dayu's request, his heart must have been extremely tormented.
Because if we think about it from another perspective, if we are faced with such a choice, it is actually very difficult to choose.
After all, this matter is very important, so if you listen to Dayu's request, then it means that Chiyou will let himself stink for 10,000 years, and be cursed, slandered, and scandalized by countless descendants in the 10,000 years of later generations, and he can't justify himself for half a point.
But Dayu is also not alarmist, Luo Hu is bent on destroying the human race and destroying Shenzhou, although this time he failed, but he will definitely have a plan next time.
Although Shenzhou has Dayu as the guardian, but Dayu has too many things to deal with after all, it is impossible to do everything, if it is not careless at the moment when Rahu has a move, this world is likely to face great danger.
Because of this, the Terran race urgently needs a guardian, this person must have a very high cultivation, have the determination to give up everything for the Terran, and an extremely long and even eternal life, only by satisfying these three points at the same time, can barely resist the potential threat of Rahu.
And if you think about it carefully, it is not difficult to find that in the land of Shenzhou at that time, there was actually only Chi You who could meet these three points at the same time.
If Chi You didn't intend to listen to Dayu's request, then he could return to Shenzhou with Emperor Xuanyuan, and at the same time lead the human race, to make up for his previous mistakes, so that he would definitely not leave a reputation in the future generations.
However, if Chi You really made such a choice, then although he could clear his image and get rid of the infamy of future generations, at the same time, Demon Ancestor Luo Hu would definitely find that he had appeared in Shenzhou again, and he would definitely take into account Chi You's problem in his future plans.
This also means that as long as Chi You returns to Shenzhou with Emperor Xuanyuan, then he will have been exposed to Rahu's eyes, and if so, he will no longer be able to play the role of this guardian.
And to put it mildly, since Chi You has obtained the Mandate of Heaven for ten thousand years, everything about the human race has nothing to do with him, even if the human race is destroyed and Shenzhou collapses, the ten thousand years of destiny on his body can protect him.
In the end, do you choose to obey Dayu's request, to let your image stink for 10,000 years, and be cursed and slandered by countless descendants in the 10,000 years of time in later generations, or choose to refuse Dayu's request and return to Shenzhou with Emperor Xuanyuan to make up for the mistakes he has made and change the impression of future generations on him?
There is no doubt that in the face of such a choice, Chi You must be extremely tormented.
However, since we are in the afterlife, we can naturally see Chiyou's choice from the history of the later generations.
Although I don't know how tormented Chi You's situation was at the beginning, it is not difficult to confirm from the evaluation of him in later generations that he finally chose to follow Dayu's request and hide in Shenzhou to be the unknown guardian of the human race.
Because of this, he didn't return to Shenzhou with Emperor Xuanyuan, and he didn't find a way to clear his image, because his identity made him unable to justify his identity.
At this moment, the candle dragon slowly spoke, and as expected, the result from his mouth was exactly what we had guessed before, and it was not half different.
"The reason why Chi You can become the hope of the Terran chosen by Heaven is that he has an infinite love for the Terran in his heart, and because of this, after struggling for a long time, Chi You finally obeyed Emperor Yu's request, he resolutely gave up the opportunity to clear his image, and decided to hide in the shadows and become the guardian god of the Terran."
It seemed to realize that we were not surprised by the conclusion in his mouth, so the candle dragon continued to speak in a flat tone.
"However, although Chi You decided to obey Emperor Yu's request, he also had a little worry in his heart, because he had been bewitched by Rahu's demons before, so he couldn't help but ask Emperor Yu, if Rahu was bewitched by his demons in the future, how should he deal with it?"
"Hearing this, Emperor Yu asked Chi You to settle down, because Chi You has been carrying the mandate of heaven for thousands of years at the moment, so his existence is already equivalent to the will of heaven, no matter how powerful Luo Hu is, in the case that he can't take the initiative, it is impossible for the demons in his heart to successfully bewitch Chi You."
Speaking of this, there was a faint trace of respect for Chi You in the candle dragon's tone.
"After getting the promise of Emperor Yu, Chi You put his mind at ease, but after thinking about it, Chi You still felt that all this was not safe enough, and in the end, he actually didn't care about his own factors, and turned to Emperor Yu and Xuanyuan with a request that no one had thought of."
"Chi You's request is actually to ask Emperor Yu and Xuanyuan to erase all his contributions to the human race, and spare no effort to scandalize it and shape it into a demon who does all kinds of evil!"
Obviously, everyone couldn't understand Chi You's request at all, so I couldn't help the doubts in my heart, and looked at the candle dragon and asked boldly.
"Senior, how could Chi You make such a request, since he has decided to become the guardian of the human race, then even if he can't expect the human race to remember his kindness because his identity cannot be revealed, at least he shouldn't want his image to be so distorted, right?"
"This is what makes Chiyou extraordinary."
After hearing my inquiry, the respect in the candle dragon's tone became even more obvious.
"Chi You knew in his heart that because his identity could not be exposed to the world, no matter what time it was, future generations would not have a good impression of him, so he simply gave up on himself, and did not hesitate to completely distort his image, just to make Luo Hu believe that he had died in the field of Zhuolu!"
