Zhou Lihuang hesitated for a while, and Zhou Yunting turned his face and looked at him sternly. So the boy trembled slightly, and immediately took a step to the side of the serious student, and jumped into the trap.

Although it was out of place, Serious Sheng still sighed in his heart. He didn't know Zhou Lihuang very well, but looking at this son's current performance and behavior, he could guess that he was frightened by his strict father.

The tiger father may not be without a dog - especially when he has neglected the child for a long time and suddenly pins all his hopes on him.

Pei Yuanxiu frowned, and said to the agent next to him who was holding a tablet-controlled drone: "Xiao Wu, bring this person there, take a good look." ”

"Xiao Wu" whispered, put away the tablet, walked over to the serious student and held his arm—the hand was as strong as pliers.

After the two of them walked away, Pei Yuanxiu looked at Zhou Yunting: "Uncle Zhou, Li Qingyan is actually ......."

Zhou Yunting raised his hand: "I don't know his identity." You don't have to say either. This matter, I apologize to Lao Lin. ”

Pei Yuanxiu gritted his teeth: "I am indeed friends with him - until now." Uncle Zhou......"

Zhou Yunting turned his face to glance at him, and his fingers circled. There was a burst of light under Pei Yuanxiu's feet, and he realized that he couldn't walk anymore - the Circle Turning Technique. If this Principal Zhou is willing, he can be told to stand still for the rest of his life.

"Yuan Xiu, I'm saving you. Restrained him, the expression on Zhou Yunting's face softened slightly. He stared at Pei Yuanxiu for a while, and sighed lowly, "You children, you are too idealistic. ”

Pei Yuanxiu knew that he was powerless to compete with this fourth-level monk. He glanced at Zhou Lihuang in the distance—he had found the entrance, and used his flying sword to cut open the door that was crushed together, as if he was about to go into the darkness underground.

This is one of the strongholds of the Promotion Association, and there are complex passages underground. Even if the surface buildings are crushed into a cake, the underground may not be compacted. The people of the Promotion Association and Li Qingyan should still be hiding in it.

He withdrew his gaze. He knew Li Qingyan's strength...... Although Zhou Yunting seemed to have planted a ban on him, it should not be an extremely powerful kind after such a distance. Li Qingyan dealt with Zhou Lihuang...... There will be no danger to life for a while.

So he said in a deep voice: "Uncle Zhou is saying that I am friends with a demon clan?"

Zhou Yunting smiled and shook his head slightly: "It means that you children really believe in the peaceful coexistence and common development of people and the demon clan." ”

"But this is the policy of the state. It's written into the Constitution. ”

"So, you're too idealistic. Zhou Yunting exhaled, "Policies are made by people. When was this policy enshrined in the Constitution? In 1978, just after the end of the war. Did the people who made the constitution want to write like that? ”

"Because this is a very simple fact - humans and demons can never coexist peacefully. ”

"You should know how the demon clan came to be - ancestral soul. The ancestral soul was attached to the animals to make them open their spiritual wisdom, and if they practiced again, they had a demon clan. If the demon clan wants to reproduce, expand the group, and give birth to humanoid offspring to inherit civilization, they have to practice. But the high-end practice method is in our hands. ”

"The number of demons is small, and they want more. Then there are only two ways - the combination of the same kind of demon clan to give birth to offspring and transform into a human form. Or capture the ancestral souls of the heavens and the earth to possess animals and generate spiritual intelligence. But Yuan Xiu, you know that the number of ancestral souls between heaven and earth is limited, and they will be gone after a few decades. ”

"Even if these ancestral souls are given to America, what about them? More than 100,000 ...... It's too little compared to humans. So he could only count on the reproduction of his own kind, and then use the cultivation method to make his offspring turn into human form. ”

"But Yuan Xiu, if you think about it again, if the demon clan does this, it will be the same as people. Without a high-end practice, they can't be asked to cultivate their soul power stronger, but only to maintain it to the point where they can 'transform into a human form', then the soul of the offspring born will be weakened - just like we humans used to, human ancestors and mortals intermarried from generation to generation, constantly weakening the soul. ”

"But people's souls are weak, and they just can't practice. But the soul of the demon clan is weakened to a certain point, and it will not be able to produce offspring with spiritual intelligence. Then, as a humanoid race that is intelligent, can think, and can learn, they will also be going to perish. This process may take a long time, but sooner or later. ”

"So they want to get our high-end practices. Now there are some equally idealistic people in the country who say, then give them to them. Zhou Yunting smiled, "I feel that if I give it to them, their survival is no longer a problem, and I will really want to live in peace with others." But Yuan Xiu, do you think it's possible?"

"How many people are there in this world, how many animals are there? The demon clan has three or four births, and they are naturally stronger than humans. Then there is cultivation to refine supernatural powers...... Even cultivators are in a weak position. If this continues, will there be a way for man to live?[Note 1]"

Pei Yuanxiu frowned and wanted to speak, but didn't say it.

"You know no. You should also know that the best way is to make this world only human. Thousands of years...... People and demons have been fighting all the time, and they have never stopped. If there are no demons, we can live with peace of mind, and the world will definitely become a better place. ”

"But because of those things—those things of the last century—the demons in Europe have taken the lead in the field of technology. So with World War II, atomic bombs were dropped on our land, so we signed the Lansing Declaration of the Right to Life with America, which promised to ensure that both humans and demons had equal rights to live within both camps. ”

"But is it just a declaration? It's a surrender. The humiliating surrender of the demon clan - what you said, the current national policy, is the result of that surrender. We actually lost that war. ”

"We say that we have driven the invaders out of our land and called the territory of the republic to the western Pacific, the Indian Ocean, and Siberia...... But what's the point? If we win the war, there will be no United States of America across the two Americas, no satellites of America in Western Europe and South Europe, no Antarctic military base in Australia, no American Dominions in half of Africa. ”

"My generation, including those who came before us, knows exactly what the so-called national policy is. It is a means to seek development for the time being when our strength is not as strong as that of America. But in your generation...... The war is too far away from you. Even kids from your background are starting to identify with it. ”

Zhou Yunting looked at Pei Yuanxiu seriously: "The demon clan and we have never been friends, but mortal enemies. Yuan Xiu, you have to keep this in mind. They want to continue, they have to rely on the soul of their ancestors, and they have to rely on cultivation. If we want to continue, we only need to rely on ourselves - even if there is no supernatural power in the world, it is not a terrible thing. As long as we live, we can drag them to death. ”

"What is really terrible is to lose due vigilance against the enemy and mistake it for a friend. The demons can't destroy us, only we can. ”

=========================

Note 1: In order to prevent some book lovers from not understanding it clearly, let's explain the setting of the soul:

Whether it is a human or a demon race, there is a "soul" in the body. A strong soul is a necessary condition for spiritual practice.

When humans and demons reproduce, some of the souls in the bodies of both parents will split off and merge into the souls of newborns.

The parts that are split are either many or few.

During pregnancy, the mother will absorb a small amount of spiritual power between heaven and earth.

Therefore, the soul of the newborn may be stronger than that of the parents, or it may be weaker than the parents. But in general, the vast majority will be weaker, that is, showing a trend of weakening from generation to generation.

Cultivation methods can absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth to strengthen the soul, and thus the soul of the next generation will also be stronger.

The newborn of the demon clan will only be a beast-like offspring with a spirit when the soul strength reaches a certain level. If it doesn't meet the standard, it's an ordinary animal with a weak soul.
