Chapter 765 -256: The Root of Hatred (Request for Monthly Votes)_2

Yan Rong’s appearance was like that of a gigantic tortoise, carrying a volcano on its back, spewing lava incessantly.

“Could this guy be a mutated tortoise?”

“Correct,” Nan Yue Ran nodded, “Before the calamity, there was a species of giant land tortoise in Africa called the Elephant Turtle.”

“And Yan Rong, before mutating, was an Elephant Turtle.”

“Because its species was on the brink of extinction, it was captured by humans and placed in a zoo. Though the intention was to protect it, this took away its freedom.”

“What’s more, the near extinction of its species was primarily caused by humans.”

“That’s why Yan Rong harbors an intense hatred for humans. After mutating, he led other mutant beasts in attacks against humans multiple times. After entering the Immortal Country, he was the first to establish the Dark Demon Immortal Country.”

The group fell into silence.

Before the mutation, aside from the Dark Scale with an unclear origin, the enmity the other two Immortals held against humans turned out to be self-inflicted by humans themselves.

This left them feeling lost.

Could it be that humans were in the wrong?

Did humanity deserve its current plight?

“Don’t think too much about it.” Seeing the confusion in others, Nan Yue Ran sighed softly, “In the face of survival, right or wrong doesn’t matter.” freewebnøvel.com

“Whether it’s humans or beasts, the fundamental demand is survival.”

“Before the calamity, humans could easily suppress other species with technology and force, so we focused on developing ourselves without much consideration for other creatures.”

“After the calamity, mutant beasts easily overpowered humans, and the roles were suddenly reversed, naturally leading to conflict.”

“Beasts are hostile towards humans, indeed, due to humans’ own actions, but we cannot simply wait to be killed.”

“That’s why I said the conflict between the two sides is hard to reconcile,” Nan Yue Ran gestured towards the bustling streets, the mutant beast stalls bargaining with humans, the humans walking company with beasts.

“To enable humans and mutant beasts to coexist, to let such scenes unfold in every corner of the world, we first need to have enough strength.”

“Only with the power to subdue the other can we actively resolve our differences. Otherwise, the Immortal Country would never sit down at the negotiation table with humans.”

After all, Nan Yue Ran used to be the Commander of the Second Combat Sequence. Now, watching humans and mutant beasts slaughter each other every day, even becoming numb to it, he naturally pondered how to change this situation frequently.

You could say it was a realization he had come to over the years.

This realization made Lin Su feel a sudden enlightenment.

In Shenwu, with the rise of martial arts, the human side gained the final victory, once again suppressing the mutant beasts, resulting in a return to the situation before the Ghost Energy Stone appeared, where humans enslaved beasts.

For Blue Star, it was like having an answer key when doing homework.

Even if you don’t directly copy it, with the answer key in hand, your thoughts tend to follow its lead.

But sometimes, the answer key isn’t the only solution.

Do humans have to enslave mutant beasts and continue to deepen the hatred between species, ensuring their status through force?

At least, Blue Star had other options.

“Uncle Nan, thank you,” he looked at Nan Yue Ran earnestly.

Nan Yue Ran’s words were like a wake-up call to him.

“There’s nothing to thank me for,” Nan Yue Ran laughed, “Though I might have digressed a bit.”

He looked around and suddenly had an idea, “Speaking of which, Yan Huang’s strength has developed quite well now.”

“Beside dealing with the Dark Demon Immortal Country, perhaps we can do some other things.”

“Uncle Nan, what do you mean?” Qin Nan seemed to realize something and turned to look at Nan Yue Ran.

“Previously, I was the Commander of the Second Combat Sequence, fixated on the Dark Demon Immortal Country,” Nan Yue Ran started smiling, “Now I am the vice-chairman of the Beast Taming Association, and though I came here to retire, it seems I can’t keep still.”

“If we could establish a few neutral districts like the Liangya Special District within Yan Huang, that would be quite interesting.”

“After all, the Yan Huang Alliance is adjacent to Blue Star’s largest ocean, the Tai Ping Ocean.”

Lin Su’s eyes lit up in an instant.

If the aquatic powers like the Water Nation could emerge from the Western Ocean, then the larger Tai Ping Ocean could naturally do the same.

If Yan Huang could collaborate amicably with those oceanic mutant beast powers and work together for mutual benefit, it would clearly be a good thing.

“Let’s talk more after we return to Yan Huang,” Nan Yue Ran said, his smile deepening as he looked at the harmonious scenes of humans and beasts before him, his eyes filled with anticipation, “This matter requires long-term planning.”

Such cooperation was clearly not something that could be resolved overnight.

Giving up his front-line position to retreat to the background as a retired vice-chairman of the association was not that easy for Nan Yue Ran to accept.

He had grown accustomed to directing combat personnel in battle for a long time, so after having some leisure, it only took a day or two for him to grow restless.

Now, having found a new goal, that discomfort dissipated instantly.

He had taken the initiative to come here to ensure the safety of Lin Su and the others. Yet, he did not expect such new insights from seeing Liangya Special District firsthand and from his conversations with others.

“Hmm!”

Everyone refocused their attention on the commercial district before them, following the crowd towards the more lively areas.
