Chapter 399: Chapter 203 Righteous God, Evil God?_2He very consciously took on this job. The City Lord of Heavenly Punishment City is gone, and the residents of the city are left without a leader. If no one gives them orders soon, it could lead to trouble. With Xie Yitian, a Seven-star Transcendent, stationed here, there won’t be any problems. Xie Yitian possesses the ability of the Data Ghost, able to infiltrate machines and human brains at will, controlling a city is extremely easy. Upon hearing this, Su Yu nodded, "Then I’ll trouble you, City Lord Xie." "Please also help me investigate the residents here and pick out the innocent ones. When the great battle begins, I ask you to protect these innocents." He considered that although the people of Heavenly Punishment City are deserving of death, it’s impossible for the entire city’s population to be fanatical followers of the Heavenly Punishment cult, there must be innocents among them. For example, there are surely many newborns in the city; what sins could they possibly have? Although Su Yu wanted to ignite a war for the sake of the ritual, he had no intention of slaughtering the city. Otherwise, if too many innocents were killed, he feared he would truly become a cold and mad Evil God. Therefore, asking Xie Yitian to help investigate and select out the wrongdoers first made slaughter on the battlefield justified. The remaining innocents could fill the population of the Mechanical City. Currently, the population of Mechanical City is too small, unable to compare with a great city of a million people. A smaller population means fewer talents, making it difficult to be useful; it isn’t much help to Su Yu. Even if they were urged to have children quickly, it wouldn’t be enough, so Su Yu considered absorbing people from Heavenly Punishment City. And Xie Yitian’s character is commendable. Entrusting him with the population investigation is reassuring. Sure enough, upon hearing Su Yu’s words, Xie Yitian promptly said, "Please be assured, Mr. Su Yu, I will handle this matter properly!" Su Yu nodded, placed down the chip containing Xie Yitian’s data, activated the battle armor, and flew away from Heavenly Punishment City. After Su Yu left, Xie Yitian’s chip floated in midair, faintly transmitting Xie Yitian’s voice: "Mr. Su Yu even considers the innocents in Heavenly Punishment City, it seems he is indeed not a ruthless Evil God or Ghost Emperor." "It must be Zhang Chenfeng!" "Although this senior locked down the planet and killed countless, it was actually out of necessity." "He doesn’t seem to be brutal in nature..." The task Su Yu arranged for Xie Yitian was somewhat demanding. Investigating all the residents of a city with nearly a million people is no simple task. However, Xie Yitian was rather relieved and very willing. After all, Xie Yitian himself also didn’t want to slaughter the innocents, and being able to work for someone like Su Yu is a rare opportunity. The most important part of this task from Su Yu was that it showed his concern and compassion for ordinary humans, which highlighted his character, something very significant. Su Yu found Xie Yitian’s character commendable, so he sought to collaborate with him. In fact, the sentiment was mutual. After combining various past experiences and impressions, and assessing Su Yu’s character, the conclusion was... A boss like this, although his Subspace image might be a bit intimidating, is actually friendly and, with strong power and mysterious means, still compassionate and protective of ordinary humans... Xie Yitian decided to stick with this big shot! Following a big shot like Su Yu, he could certainly achieve his dreams and enter the Star Sea in the future! Xie Yitian made up his mind and then enthusiastically went to work. Although he only had a chip left, without a body, the combination of Mechanical Creations and the million population in the City of Heavenly Punishment provided endless carriers for him, not hindering his work at all. ... After leaving the City of Heavenly Punishment, Su Yu immediately activated twelve times supersonic speed and flew back to the Mechanical City. As of now, it had been less than two hours since he summoned everyone for a meeting; Su Yu’s action this time was exceedingly swift. No one in the Mechanical City knew that Su Yu had made a round trip to the Heavenly Punishment City thousands of kilometers away, took care of a Heavenly Punishment Evil God, and even snatched a divine position back. Returning to the Mechanical Space, Su Yu flipped his hand and revealed a light sphere. Inside this light sphere, there were phantom images of lightning, flames, meteors, light... At the same time, there was a faint transmission of brutality and destruction’s will, cries of death, and despair. The Evil God Origin of the City Lord of Heavenly Punishment! "This origin, and my origin, seem somewhat different..." After taking out this origin, Su Yu carefully sensed it. At this moment, in the depths of Su Yu’s consciousness, there also emerged his Evil God Origin of Heavenly Punishment. However, upon careful sensing, Su Yu discovered an essential difference between his origin and the City Lord of Heavenly Punishment’s origin. In Su Yu’s origin, the will contained was calmness and chastisement, aligning with his understanding of "Heavenly Punishment." The City Lord of Heavenly Punishment’s origin’s will was brutality, destruction, and death. Both are "Heavenly Punishment Evil God Origins," yet they are fundamentally different. "Seems like not devouring this origin was right." Su Yu nodded. His Will of Heavenly Punishment was entirely different from the City Lord of Heavenly Punishment’s. If he devoured it, it might cause corruption. It’s better to condense one’s own Evil God Origin. "Speaking of which, my Evil God Origin of Heavenly Punishment doesn’t seem at all evil?" Sensing his own origin, Su Yu couldn’t help but mutter to himself. His Evil God Origin of Heavenly Punishment seemed upright and legitimate. It truly felt like a deity examining the sins of the world and then delivering heavenly punishment to the sinners. Not at all like the madness of the City Lord of Heavenly Punishment. The City Lord enacted indiscriminate destruction, but Su Yu had a calm examination process followed by chastisement. This hardly seemed like an Evil God, more like a righteous deity. Most importantly, Su Yu maintained his rationality and wouldn’t act recklessly like an Evil God. "Did I train to become a righteous deity instead of an Evil God? Does such a thing as a righteous deity exist in this world?" Su Yu thought with a sense of weirdness, wondering if he might become an actual deity at this rate? The God of Heavenly Punishment, if it were a righteous deity, would indeed be something remarkable. However, Su Yu quickly became alert—no! Upon careful sensing, he realized his own Heavenly Punishment Origin still contained a will of madness. Perhaps it wasn’t quite insane now. But as time progresses, the will it contains would inevitably develop towards extremity and madness. The so-called calmness and chastisement, if left unchecked, would become coldness. Chastisement would devolve into slaughter, torture, cruelty... This extreme transformation seemed beyond Su Yu’s control and would automatically absorb the emotions and will of living beings, continuously growing and becoming highly corruptive. "After all, it’s still an Evil God Origin..." Su Yu shook his head helplessly, he understood. Relying on the Evil God Origin to become any righteous deity was a pipe dream. Su Yu even doubted if such a thing as a righteous deity existed in this world. After all, Subspace Gods are embodiments of extreme emotions; could such a thing truly be orthodox? Perhaps at the beginning, all Evil Gods were orthodox. For instance, the Brutal Evil God, when newly born, might’ve been a positive deity, perhaps a God of Battle or similar. However, as its will and emotion grew, the battle intent evolved into a will of brutality and destruction. An upright deity became a fearsome Evil God. These were just Su Yu’s guesses, but they were likely close. Subspace Gods are born from the emotions of living beings. Emotions, being unstable, when amassed in the Subspace, inevitably tend towards madness and extremity. Just as a person with overly intense emotions ends up mentally unstable. Is it any wonder that Subspace Evil Gods, embodying the fierce emotions of billions, go mad? Perhaps this world simply cannot produce any righteous deity. "But, maybe not, my Ghost Hidden Blade..." Su Yu recalled his profession. This profession, while comparable to an Evil God, exhibited no inclination towards madness. The emotion governed by the Ghost Hidden Blade was calmness and rationality, possibly the reason for avoiding madness. Yet calmness and rationality, when taken to extremes, could become indifference, mechanical—that too is a form of madness. However, Su Yu felt none of this now; his emotions were quite normal. "This profession still holds more secrets..." "I wonder what changes will occur when it advances to eight stars..."
