Supreme Warrior in the City
Chapter 2915 - 2915: Hearts Are Veiled Behind Flesh
After Dao Yun recovered his strength, he didn't linger around but flew out of the broken star domain to explore the surroundings.
The situation in the outside world was all told by Su Yang, as he himself didn't know what it was like out there. Thus, he was eager to go out and see for himself what the situation was.
Su Yang gave him a jade pendant containing the power of Earth Principles, so with this jade pendant, Dao Yun could find the location of the Human Clan.
At the same time, if he encountered any danger, he only had to crush the jade pendant, and Su Yang and the others would know the situation and immediately rush for his rescue.
Previously, Su Yang didn't dare let his people wander too far because if they went too far, it was impossible to rush aid in time.
But now, things were different.
With the Chaos Sparrow following Su Yang, he could enter the chaos and quickly reach the closest point to provide support swiftly.
This was now an advantage for the Human Clan.
After Dao Yun left, Su Yang continued to sit cross-legged in the void, continuing his cultivation in the broken star domain.
After about fifty years, another strongest began to ascend.
Su Yang immediately rushed over, watched the strongest ascend, and waited for him to recover his memories before going to have a detailed conversation.
This strongest made the same choice as Dao Yun before; he was also willing to help the Human Clan.
Next, this strongest also left the Human Clan's area to observe the outside world.
Over a period of about a thousand years, around 300-plus strong ones had recovered their strength.
Most of them directly agreed to help the Human Clan and then left the Human Clan's area to investigate the outside situation.
Of course, there were some who either chose to remain neutral or simply did not express their stance.
Anyway, not a single one of these 300-plus individuals chose to support the Guardian God.
What puzzled Su Yang was that none of these 300-plus individuals knew the distinction between the Human Clan and the Guardian God.
This made Su Yang speculate whether the distinction between the Human Clan and the Guardian God was unique to their world?
On this day, Su Yang had just sent away a strongest when Wan Du came over with a face full of helplessness.
"Su Alliance Leader!" Wan Du sighed, "I have failed to meet your expectations."
Su Yang's expression was calm, "In your world, how many among the strongest still are willing to help the Human Clan?"
Wan Du looked embarrassed, "Less than ten."
Su Yang smiled, "That's quite alright, more than I imagined."
"Ah?" Wan Du was startled, "Su Alliance Leader, how many did you imagine?"
Su Yang laughed, "I thought there wouldn't be more than five, but now the number has exceeded my expectations. It seems that not everyone in your world is ungrateful!"
Wan Du showed a face of helplessness, "Su Alliance Leader, I also tried my best to persuade them. But those people just wouldn't listen."
"Even though the Guardian God had invaded our world before, they still disregard it."
"Honestly, I couldn't think of any way out!"
Su Yang smiled, "You need not blame yourself so much!"
"Everyone has their own aspirations. How they choose is their own affair, you cannot change other people's thoughts."
"Just like those strong ones who emerged from here, you have seen it over the years."
"Out of over 300 strong ones, more than 260 of them promised to help us against the Guardian God. And of these 300-plus strong ones, over 280 have left this area to explore the outside world."
"But how many do you think will finally come back?"
Wan Du paused for a moment and said softly, "Since more than 260 people promised to help us against the Guardian God, then surely these more than 260 people will return!"
Su Yang shook his head, "You're too optimistic."
"I estimate that less than 20% will actually return!"
"No way?" Wan Du was startled, "Most people promised to help us against the Guardian God, why would less than 20% come back?"
Su Yang said, "The human heart is hard to fathom. They promise you verbally but may not truly mean it!"
"These people were brought here by me, and it was I who provided them with cultivation places and a continuous supply of spiritual energy to eventually restore their strength."
"Thus, in my presence, they agree to help the Human Clan against the Guardian God!"
"However, such agreements are not trustworthy. What they say is just a façade."
"Once they leave here, they don't need to maintain such a façade anymore."
"In fact, for most of the strongest, they have not seen the Guardian God, nor do they know the Guardian God's ambitions."
"Everything I told them is too far removed from their lives."
"Having been dead for countless years and suddenly resurrected, just regaining their memory, and I tell them about the Human Clan and the Guardian God. Ask yourself, how many would truly believe me?"
"Thus, in the end, not many strong ones will actually return to help us against the Guardian God."
"Your world will be the same!"
Wan Du looked at Su Yang, puzzled. He didn't expect Su Yang had been aware of all this.
"Since you know that most of them won't return, then why... why would you still let them leave?" Wan Du said anxiously, "Why not just keep them here, and when the Guardian God attacks, they would have to fight back!"
"That kind of thing must never be done!" Su Yang immediately waved his hand, "These people, if allowed to leave, may not return, but they won't go to the Guardian God's side either."
"In this matter, they are likely to remain neutral and not get involved."
"But if you forcefully keep them here, it will only earn their resentment."
"I don't necessarily need their gratitude, but I definitely can't have their resentment."
"Otherwise, if the Guardian God were to attack, they might first rise against our Human Clan, and wouldn't that be worse than futile?"
Wan Du scratched his head, what Su Yang said was entirely correct, yet he had previously overlooked this.
"Su Alliance Leader, your consideration is indeed comprehensive!" Wan Du sincerely remarked.
"In that case, I won't try to persuade the strong ones of my world either."
Su Yang nodded, "That's right, there's no need to persuade them."
"Ultimately, the choice is theirs to make."
"Some things, without experience, they will never know the pain."
"Only when they feel the pain will they regret their initial decisions. At that time, they will understand what needs to be done!"
