Chapter 768 Guarding
Jiang Yan closed his eyes and spoke in a low voice.
"But, Brother Chen... I don't understand why those people in the Central Region want to invade the other four regions?"
"They clearly possess the richest resources and heritage in the Five Realms. Why can't they live in peace? Why do they insist on destroying other people's homes and even want to treat them as slaves, attempting to control the life and death of all living beings?"
Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel emotional when he saw that the other party was confused.
Brother Yan has always been gentle and kind, and always willing to believe in the light of human nature.
This experience undoubtedly shattered some of the other party's beliefs.
"Brother Yan." Jiang Chen stretched out his right palm without warning and gently rubbed the other's head.
Then he pretended to be relaxed and jokingly said, "Don't frown. It's such a waste to have a face as handsome as mine."
Hearing this, Jiang Yan finally smiled bitterly.
"Brother Chen, you always tease me like this."
"I just want to make you feel more relaxed." Jiang Chen put away his smile and said calmly, "You know what? I've actually been in the same confusion as you before."
"Once, I even asked my uncle why we couldn't all live in peace and why we always had to fight?"
Jiang Yan was slightly startled.
"What does the Patriarch say?"
Jiang Chen's eyes flickered, as if he was recalling the scene at that time.
"My uncle smiled and said to me, 'There is light and darkness in human nature.'"
“Greed, fear, and desire often lead people astray, especially those in high positions.”
"They see not home but territory, not people but resources and power."
Jiang Yan remained silent.
He lowered his head slightly, lost in thought.
Jiang Chen continued, "Those invaders from the Central Territory don't care about the lives of the people in the Eastern Territory. What they care about is how to extract more resources from this land and how to control more power."
"They only care about profit. Where is the peace and tranquility you hope for?"
Jiang Yan subconsciously clenched his fists and said in a deep voice, "But...why can't we change this situation?"
Jiang Chen looked into the distance and said gently, "Brother Yan, it's not that we can't, but we are not strong enough."
"My uncle once told me that a truly powerful person uses his strength not to destroy, but to protect."
“Only when we are strong enough, strong enough to influence the rules of this world, can we truly change the situation.”
Jiang Yan's eyes gradually brightened, but the anger in his heart still could not completely dissipate.
He whispered, "But, Brother Chen, some people...some people really deserve to die."
"For example, those invaders destroyed so many families and brought countless sufferings."
"Their sins cannot be forgiven."
Jiang Chen nodded.
"Yes, the invaders should be killed."
"But Brother Yan, you must remember that our strength is not for hatred, but to protect everything we cherish."
As Jiang Yan listened, the anger in his heart was gradually replaced by calmness.
He unclenched his fists and asked, "Brother Chen, what should I do now?"
Jiang Chen smiled and said, "It's very simple. Practice hard and become stronger. Strong enough to protect everything you want to protect."
"Only when you have enough power can you stop those evil deeds from continuing!"
"You and I join hands and use the power in our hands to create a future that belongs to us!"
"A new world where the five realms coexist peacefully!"
A gleam of light flashed in Jiang Yan's eyes.
That kind of confusion and bewilderment was dispelled by faith.
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a smile that came from the heart.
"You're right, Brother Chen."
"If the world is so dark, let us change it!"
Seeing Jiang Yan finally cheer up, Jiang Chen felt relieved, with a teasing smile in the corner of his eyes: "That's right, my brother Yan is not so easily defeated."
Jiang Yan was amused by his brother's tone.
He gently pushed Jiang Chen's shoulder.
"Brother Chen, you are always like this, downplaying things as if nothing can stump you."
Jiang Chen laughed heartily, his eyes full of confidence: "Of course, as an older brother, I always have to give my younger brother hope."
"Who told me to have such a caring and popular brother?"
"Everyone in Cangwu Mountain is waiting for you to protect them..."
Jiang Yan felt a little warm in his heart when he heard this.
He thought of the people who cared about him.
Tribesmen, friends, and innocent people who need protection.
"Brother Chen, I understand."
"From now on, I will work harder and strive to become stronger."
"This is not just for myself, but to protect everyone I care about, my family, and this land!"
Jiang Chen smiled gently.
"Okay, Brother Yan, let's work hard together."
The two smiled at each other.
At this moment, all the confusion in Jiang Yan's heart has turned into firm belief.
He knows that there is still a long way to go.
And he is willing to work with his people to create a future full of hope.
An ideal world in their minds!
..........
a few days later.
Eastern Region, border.
In the sky, a green light was flying rapidly.
He was a young man wearing a blue Taoist robe with a long sword hanging from his waist.
This person's name is Li Mingguang.
He is a true disciple of the Lingxiao Sword Sect, the leader of the sword sects in the Central Region.
He is also a descendant of the first supreme elder 'Li Liang'.
He is extremely talented. At only a few hundred years old, he has already achieved the ninth level of the Soul Realm. He is a true seed of a saint.
For some unknown reason, the barrier between the five regions was weakened again a few days ago, making it possible for cultivators below the Heavenly Man Realm to enter and exit. This allowed him to cross the barrier and set foot on the land of the Eastern Region.
At this time, Li Mingguang looked around and muttered:
"Mingya has been in the Eastern Region investigating the word 'Cangwu' for so many days, but how come he hasn't reported back even a single bit of information?"
"What a useless piece of shit! Looks like I, your elder brother, have to take action myself."
"But, is this the Eastern Region? The training environment is indeed as bad as the rumors say..."
While complaining about his younger brother Li Mingya, Li Mingguang couldn't help but express his contempt for the Eastern Region.
Back then, when he set out for the Eastern Region, his fellow disciples around him laughed and said that he was going to the countryside to carry out a mission. They also half-jokingly told him not to let those low-level country bumpkins in the Eastern Region worship him as a god.
He never doubted it.
After all, the fact that the spiritual energy in the four major regions of the east, south, west and north is thin and the cultivators are generally weak has long been spread throughout the central region.
Thinking of all the rumors about the Eastern Region, a look of contempt appeared on Li Mingguang's face.
"To send me to a place with such thin spiritual energy is really a waste of my talent."
