“As for what you say, nuclear bombs, or any other means you have that can threaten me, let alone whether what you think these can actually threaten my life.”
“Even if they could really kill me, so what?”
“When you use the power of an entire nation to threaten a powerful seal, then it means that the nation is on the opposite side of that seal!”
“At that time, I will have no psychological burden to go and slaughter the people under your feet.”
Ye Fan’s face was expressionless, and his morose words were filled with endless murderousness, and even, with a touch of madness and fury.
“You… You…”
The Buddha King, who had previously been calm and collected and looked like he was sure of victory, his entire body actually began to tremble, and a touch of panic surfaced in his old eyes when he thought he was in control of the situation and that he was about to win.
He pointed at Ye Fan and roared in anger.
“Lunatic!”
“You madman!”
“How dare you lay your hands on a civilian?”
“Aren’t you afraid that if you provoke the wrath of the people, you will draw the combined forces of the martial dao of all countries to surround you and everyone will be punished?”
“Aren’t you afraid of ruining the benevolent name of your Yanxia Martial Dao?”
These words of Ye Fan undoubtedly appalled both King Buddha and Hai Bu to the core.
One should know that there was a most basic consensus in the martial dao world.
That was, no matter what level of war, it must not affect civilians or lay hands on ordinary people.
This was especially true for those at the rank of Sealed Sovereign, who wielded the energy to destroy the heavens and the earth.
If they wanted to, they could slaughter a city in a single day.
It is also because of the terrifying strength of the Sealed Sovereign that the International Martial Union has issued a convention that any act of wanton slaughter of civilians, for any reason, will be sanctioned by the global martial dao together.
Martial Dao powerhouses from all countries have the responsibility and obligation to sanction as well as round up and kill such people.
This is the principle and the bottom line!
Over the years, few people have violated it.
Of course, it is not to say that there have not been.
Back then, there was a city lord who took over a certain person’s wife and daughter.
This person later went into hiding for decades.
Finally, at the age of eighty, he entered the Seal Realm!
To take revenge on that city lord, he not only destroyed his entire family, but also slaughtered a city under his jurisdiction.
Half a million people lost their lives.
Although there was a reason for the incident, there were even many people who begged for his mercy.
However, at the Martial Law Union Conference, the martial leaders of several great nations still pa*sed a strong sentence of death on this man!
This was a red line that a Sealed Patriarch must not trample on.
It was a red line that could not be crossed.
But King Buddha had never imagined that this Yanxia curmudgeon would say something so treacherous and unjustifiable.
What did he want?
Did he want to turn against humanity?
Moreover, haven’t the people of Yanxia always been kind and generous?
Thousands of years of education in rituals and laws have always given the Yanxia national character a brand of tolerance and benevolence.
It is a practice of repaying kindness with kindness.
Practice, too, the forgiveness of repaying grievances with virtue.
In World War II, the Japanese committed heinous crimes against Yanxia, but even so, Yanxia still forgave the Japanese war reparations.
Also, those who have studied the world’s maritime history will be surprised to find that the Western countries’ ocean voyages brought war, plunder, killing and colonisation, carrying the wealth of other places to their own countries.
Zheng He, the most famous ocean voyage of Yanxia, predated the Western world, but they did the opposite, sending money, silk and ceramics, giving their wealth to people in foreign countries thousands of miles apart.
The theory of penance within the Buddhist doctrine can be said to have been carried forward by Yanxia.
King Buddha actually likes dealing with people or countries of this character the most.
If you treat him well, he will return the favour tenfold and a hundredfold.
If you treat him badly, he will not do anything to you, at most he will say a few words about you, and maybe even send you something to repair the relationship in the end.
This is called repaying a grudge with a virtue.
But the man in front of him seems to have thrown away all their ancient traditions of excellence.
The promised nation of mercy and justice!
If you are talking about mercy, then you should obediently give up your martial arts, return to Yanxia and swear not to enter the country of India again.
As for your woman, after a few years, when we see that you are indeed honest, we will naturally let your woman go back.
Yes, in fact, even if Ye Fan really did as they asked, King Buddha and the others did not intend to release Yue Yao immediately.
At least they would have to observe Ye Fan for a few years.
Only after making sure that Ye Fan did not have any thoughts of revenge and did not pose any threat would they release Yue Yao.
In fact, when he was negotiating with Ye Fan just now, King Fo Luo had not said that he would release Yue Yao immediately, only that he would do so after Ye Fan returned to Yan Xia.
But this afterwards would undoubtedly be a big deal!
An hour later was called afterwards, three years later, five years later, was also called afterwards.
But now was no longer the time to count on this being the case, because King Buddha Luo realised that what he had met today might really be a madman.
He, King Buddha Luo, wanted to use Yue Yao alone to threaten Ye Fan.
Ye Fan, on the other hand, actually wanted to use the entire 1.4 billion people of the Indian Kingdom to threaten him!
“Hahahahaha…”
“Benevolence?”
“So, are you trying to use morality to bind me?”
Ye Fan instantly snorted with laughter, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the entire world.
“Don’t you think that, now that you’re saying that, it’s like putting a knife to my neck.”
“It’s obvious that you want to kill me, and you still don’t allow me to resist.”
“If I resist, I will be unkind and immoral, and I will incur the wrath of the people, and everyone will be punished.”
“And you killed me, but it was justice, a righteous act of God, a just cause?”
“Is there even such a justification in the world?”
Ye Fan said rhetorically.
With just a few words, he actually said that King Buddha Lo was speechless, not knowing how to refute.
“Chu Tianfan, no matter how clever you are, confusing black and white, but I still have to warn you, if you dare to lay your hands on civilians, all the martial powerhouses in the world will not spare you!” King Buddha said viciously, continuing to threaten Ye Fan.
Ye Fan, however, shook his head, “Do you think, nowadays, I would still care about that?”
“Two years ago, on the shores of the Eastern Sea, hadn’t I, Chu Tianfan, already become the great devil that you people call me?”
“The world has long since not allowed me, so why would I be afraid of making an enemy of the world?”
Ye Fan laughed lightly.
That indistinct voice carried an endless majesty.
However, only Noa, in these words of Ye Fan, heard a kind of sadness and loneliness as thick as the abyssal sea.
Just like a little boy, abandoned by the whole world.
Alone, trekking alone in the pale wilderness.
Accompanying him is an eternal silence.
It turned out that this man, who was so powerful that he could almost fight the world by himself, had so much loneliness lurking beneath his dazzling and majestic face.
Noa wondered what kind of unpleasant past a man had to have to breed such intense loneliness.
Yes, everyone only knew of Mr. Chu, the venerable Jiangdong, and only knew of the majesty of the Dragon God Hall Master, who was number one on the Heavenly List.
But how many people knew that beneath all the glittering appearances, Ye Fan’s lonely, thousand-hole heart.
He had been abandoned by his family when he was very young.
When he and his mother were humiliated, his beloved father, who he thought would protect him for the rest of his life, just watched from afar.
After that, “nobody’s child” became the only label for Ye Fan almost throughout his childhood.
During those years in Ye Yang Town, the blank stares of his aunts and uncles were the past that Ye Fan hated to remember.
Later, by coincidence, he joined the Qiu family. He married a beautiful wife who at the time felt that she was a beautiful woman.
I thought everything would be different, right?
But as it turned out, what three years of marriage brought Ye Fan was an even deeper humiliation.
No one looked up to him.
Everyone felt that he was a waste.
Even his cousin, who wouldn’t even call him “brother”.
Thinking he was unworthy.
But it wasn’t right to say that.
In those years, there was still one person who looked up to him.
That was his brother, Chu Qi Tian!
Having sought him out for ten years, he had also killed him for ten years.
During those years, Ye Fan’s only sense of existence was being hunted by this brother of his across thousands of mountains and rivers, right?
Yes, it was that ironic.
Sometimes Ye Fan himself thought it was a miracle that he had lived this long!
