Zi Yao Xianzi did not transmit any more messages.

“Ping’an.”

Li Dazhi sat by the window with a cheerful smile and lightly raised his eyebrows at Li Ping’an, whispering,

“When you see your Aunt Wen Rou in private, remember to be more courteous, she is now one of our Li family.”

“Okay.”

Li Ping’an immediately understood, smiling and nodding, but did not say anything further.

Li Dazhi found it inconvenient to discuss too much of his own personal affairs with his son and said in a gentle voice, “This time, it seems we’re in for a tough battle.

Do we need to do anything?”

“I’ve just returned from Xuanyuan Palace.”

Li Ping’an sighed,

“I had thought of these things before, but when they actually happen, I still feel an immense pressure.

“The Human Emperor wants a battle to resolve ages of conflict…

“Who knows how many people will die.

“Although I did not plan this, the current advantage of the Human Race and the reason for the Human Emperor’s decisiveness are still closely related to me.”

“Haha!

I knew you would get stuck here.”

Li Dazhi pointed to the corner of his eye, supported his deliberately shrunken belly, and chuckled,

“Who understands you best in this world?

That would definitely be your old man.

“The Western Continent is about to erupt in all-out war, with living beings suffering and all creatures in turmoil, not knowing how many will perish in this battle, not knowing how many soldiers will be wrapped in horsehide.

And you, constrained by your current identity, cannot appear directly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable inside, which is actually very normal.

“Hearts are not made of iron, this rather proves that your conscience is still intact.”

Li Ping’an gave a wry smile, “Your way of comforting people is a bit stronger than mine, but only slightly.”

“Try to think on the brighter side.”

Li Dazhi’s smile faded as he began to speak in their local dialect,

“Taking our hometown as an example, during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, the vassal states waged ceaseless wars, and certainly more people died in the hundred years of strife than would in a few years of major battle.

“If a single battle can truly decide the fate of the world, then this world will welcome a time of peace and prosperity, and the creatures of the Western Continent will be able to live and reproduce in peace and stability.

“Although the situations of the Human Race and the Hundred Clans are different, the contradictions are the same; the underlying cause is the competition for the world’s resources, leading to irreconcilable hatred.

“No one can persuade them.

“The only solution to this conflict is for one side to completely overwhelm the other, then for them to assimilate with each other.”

Li Ping’an nodded, “What I’m actually worried about is suffering numerous casualties without being able to decide the fate of the world in one battle.”

“Don’t overthink, don’t let it affect your own Way of Humanity, even if you can’t achieve the desired outcome, it’s not your responsibility.”

Li Dazhi said,

“If it really comes down to it, just see yourself as a spectator.

The great battle between the Human Race and the Hundred Clans has nothing to do with us.

“Do more good deeds, less bad ones, and have a clear conscience.”

Li Ping’an seemed hesitant to speak.

He didn’t want to worry his father, nor dare to mention the other responsibilities he bore, so he changed the subject.

“Dad, I didn’t feel there was anything wrong, but now you’ve almost talked me into feeling depressed!”

“I’m just afraid you’re under too much pressure, coming over here to comfort you,”

laughed and scolded Li Dazhi,

“I care about you, but I guess even caring can be wrong.”

Li Ping’an pulled out a Precious Mirror from his sleeve, the power of the Heavenly Dao swirling around it, and the mirror revealed scenes from various parts of the Western Continent.

The Demon King lurked in the desolate mountains, while fierce demons dwelled in wicked waters, which was the situation at the southern edge of the Western Continent, where the Demon King’s power lay.

Scattered among the continuous mountains were some fortresses wrapped in Black Cloud, which was the view of the central and northern parts of the Western Continent, with several blood-red cities below the clouds.

Li Ping’an could see many Human Race figures deep in the Western Continent.

The status of these humans on the side of the Demon Race was almost equivalent to that of livestock on the Human Race side, and even worse than livestock, to be played with at will and then completely consumed.

—The literal meaning of being completely consumed.

Along the southern line of the Western Continent, hundreds of Demon Kings had already gathered, and the oppressive forces of the Demon Soldiers darkened the sky.

Li Dazhi stared at the Precious Mirror for a while and frowned, exclaiming, “Mother’s life!

The karma of these demons is too severe!

How many humans or other beings have they killed?

They wouldn’t even eat those of their own kind, would they?”

“The Heavenly Dao was hidden before, and all living beings had no constraints, with the Way of Humanity’s fortune being intercepted by the Western Sect for tens of thousands of years.

“In the end, it is still the protection and indulgence of the Western Sect that nurtured such a realm of demons and monsters.”

Li Ping’an sighed,

“If this karma could also be accounted for on the head of the Western Sect, their Twelve-tiered Golden Lotus would surely explode.

“Regrettably, the karma of the Western Sect only counts those demonic beings suppressed by the Twelve-tiered Golden Lotus, not including the karma of the various Demon Kings.

“And somehow, I always feel that the Human Race’s expedition to the Western Continent will not be too easy.”

“It won’t be too easy?”

Li Dazhi frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”

“One is the Dao Soldiers of the Western Sect, two is the matter of Chiyou, and three is the restless Sea of Blood.”

Li Ping’an explained,

“Chan Teaching might also intervene to mediate, the Western Sect has just been suppressed and will surely cause some trouble to save face.

“The Human Race will choose the right time to open a second and third battlefield, launching offensives from the northern and western parts of the Western Continent.

“I actually think that this division of forces is not advisable.

“But the senior predecessors have also considered it thoroughly, after all, it is necessary to bypass Mount Ling, and finally surround it, not entering a range of three thousand miles around Mount Ling for the time being.

“All the plans have been made with thorough contingencies in place, discussing complete responses to various situations, the seniors are not blindly optimistic, even, each plan is prepared for retreat.”

Li Dazhi pondered for quite a while and slightly shook his head, saying earnestly, “Let’s not worry about these things, the Human Emperor has so many generals under him.”
