"Good, I'll let you protect me from now on." Lin Yan said with his face brimming with joy, and he reached out his hand, pulling his Younger Sister into his arms.
…
(On The Lingxuan Continent)
At this moment, Xiao Yanran's entire face turned a deep shade of red. Everyone in the Lingxuan continent had seen her after all.
Back then, she came from the forbidden place and was only in the Dao Attainment Realm. Nevertheless, with a handful of starlight secret techniques and Supreme Bone, she too made a considerable name in the Lingxuan continent.
That's why when she saw Lin Yan, her brother, again, she was so proud of herself.
At that time, Xiao Yanran didn't even know that her brother had almost become a legend in the Lingxuan Continent, destroying the Six Great Demon Kingdoms in one day, defecting the Heavenly Palace, and even bringing many achievements to the entire Heavenly Palace.
Even one of Lin Yan's past achievements was an unsurpassable feat for her.ad*vancechaptersavailable!
…
Anyway, Lin Yan was delighted with Sister Xiao Yanran's return.
In the following days, except for Xiao Yanran and Xiao Mei quarreling often, everything else went very smoothly.
Moreover, those Phase-less devils didn't appear again, as if they had wholly disappeared.
…
Looking at everyone beaming with smiles daily on the screen above, the blush on Xiao Yanran's face gradually receded, and her pair of eyes turned hazy again.
Well, this moment on the screen was probably her last warmest day with her brother.
After her brother became the Heavenly Emperor, such warm days never occurred.
"Sister Xiao Mei, let's go." Xiao Yanran suddenly turned her head to look at Xiao Mei at the side and said in a low tone.
Xiao Mei looked at the screen in the sky and nodded woodenly.
What's going to happen later would be Xiao Mei's biggest nightmare. She wasn't sure whether she could continue watching it.
Xiao Yanran came over and reached her hand for Xiao Mei's arm and said bitterly, "Sister Xiao Mei, my brother is dead anyway. Let's forget everything that happened in the past and not look at the next scene, okay? We two can go to the forbidden place and never return."
Hearing Xia Yanran's words, Xiao Mei froze momentarily before she woodenly nodded, "Okay."
Even Xiao Mei didn't want to watch the Heavenly Emperor's memories any further.
After all, back then, the Heavenly Emperor almost did a lot of evil deeds, and watching it would only increase one's hatred for him.
But, as the Heavenly Emperor was already dead, there was no need to watch it.ad*vancechaptersavailable!
…
"You guys aren't going to watch it?" Lin Feng, on the side, stood up somewhat confused as he had heard Xiao Yanran and Xiao Mei's conversation just now.
If the duo didn't watch the contents on the screen and just left, wouldn't the impression of the Heavenly Emperor's wise and kind-hearted left in their minds?
Lin Feng absolutely won't allow this.
Not even if the Heavenly Emperor was already dead.
When Lin Feng thought that Xiao Yanran and Xiao Mei would only be remembering the Heavenly Emperor with this personality in their mind, he went crazy with jealousy.
"The Heavenly Emperor is about to turn evil, and you say you won't watch it?" Lin Feng spoke these words powerlessly, but he was anxious when he saw Xiao Yanran and Xiao Mei about to leave.
Suddenly, a thought struck his mind and said, "Sister Yanran, Sister Xiao Mei, you can't just leave. Have you ever thought about the possibility that the Phaseless Devil possessed the Heavenly Emperor? It might be the reason he turned evil later, right?"
Boom!
Not only did Xiao Yanran and Xiao Mei stop in their tracks and turn their heads to look at him, but even the rest of the cultivators turned their heads to look at Lin Feng.
It was really because there was this possibility that Lin Feng had uttered, and just thinking about it terrified them.
If a Phase-less Heavenly Devil did have the ability to possess even a Heavenly Emperor of the Eternal Realm, then they feared that everyone in the Lingxuan Continent would be in danger.
With a stunning expression on her face, Xiao Yanran shook her head, "This is impossible; I can still know whether the Heavenly Emperor is not my brother or not…Moreover, these devils' purpose was to destroy the Lingxuan continent. So, if the Heavenly Emperor did become their puppet, I'm afraid that the Lingxuan continent would have long been extinguished. "
Indeed, Xiao Yanran had a point.
Those Extraterrestrial Devils, whether they were intelligent or not, their purpose seemed to be the same, that was the destruction of the Lingxuan Continent.
With the Heavenly Emperor's overwhelming strength, if these devils did control him, they were afraid that he would have wholly destroyed the entire Lingxuan continent, and they wouldn't be here today.
Xiao Mei, on the side, also shook her head.
Xiao Mei also didn't feel these Phase-less Heavenly Devils possessed the Heavenly Emperor.
Lin Feng curled his lips and shook his head, "I'm just saying one possibility, each of us thinks that a devil can't possess the Heavenly Emperor, but what if this happens? Wouldn't that prove that the Heavenly Emperor was always a good person, and we wronged him, and a devil controlled him?"
To Lin Feng, it was the same whether the Devil controlled the Heavenly Emperor or not.
The Heavenly Emperor afterwards did so much evil that anyone who watched it would have to gnash their teeth in anger.
Even if the Heavenly Emperor did these evil deeds after the Phase-less Devil controlled him, that would at least change the impression of the Heavenly Emperor that he wasn't unbeatable in everyone's heart.
Looking at Xiao Yanran and Xiao Mei's hesitant appearance, Lin Feng hurriedly added, "Sister Yanran, the Heavenly Emperor is your brother. Think about how good he was to you before. Can you bear to let him be wronged?"
"Sister Xiao Mei, if the Devil possesses the Heavenly Emperor, then it's a different matter that he killed your father. You always have to find out who your father's killer is."
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Xiao Yanran and Xiao Mei's expressions suddenly turned stiff.
"Lin Feng, you're right."
With that said, the two raised their heads to look at the screen in the sky.
Meanwhile, looking at the women solemnly gazing upon the screen in the sky, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but compliment himself for his quick-wittedness.
"Finally, we've left sister Yanran and sister Xiao Mei behind …Well, Heavenly Emperor, get ready to start getting bad and doing all the bad things."
Lin Feng curled his lips and raised his head to look at the sky.
-To be continued!

Godly assist, there.
ReplyDeleteI know he thinks that the evil Lin Yan did later in his life is undeniable, and that's reasonable from a non-reader point of view, but he's being silly to not consider the immediate future more. Regardless of what Lin Yan might turn into later, right now he's someone of indomitable will that cherishes relationships. That he has serious crimes so close by on the timeline doesn't make sense at all without serious extenuating circumstances. Lin Yan being possessed would be one such scenario, but not the only one. There could be a reason why he had no choice but to kill the former heavenly emperor. Specifically, it could end up being him that was possessed. There's no one the phaseless devils would like to steal the body of more. The former Heavenly Emperor at first glance seems like he would be more difficult to take over, because his cultivation is higher, but Lin Yan has incredible will and cultivation talent that seems to me like it would present a greater obstacle. Even though I used a lot of words to lay out the scenario, it's actually not very complicated or hard to think of, and Lin Feng was simply blinded by jealousy. He not only held them back, he even planted a very dangerous, to him, seed in their hearts: there is a possibility that things are not as they seem, and that the Lin Yan they see now may not necessarily be to blame for what he did later. Evaluating him as a potential victim opens up empathy, significantly altering how they will perceive all of his actions in the future. Lin Feng doesn't care right now, because he's short sighted and thinks at most that empathy will become pity, but empathy is just a form of opening your eyes. If there is a different "truth" than the one you expect, you have set up a foundation for them to accept that truth.
Very true and I think it really will become a case of the Former heavenly emperor being the evil one and the MC killing millions is actually him killing formless ones or something. That said I think a major part of why Lin Feng doesn't care is because he believes the heavenly emperor is dead so even if his image changes it shouldn't matter much but if he just let's the women leave as is he loses all chances with to be with them.
