Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 872: Origin of the Blood Shura

Hearing this, Pei Yan forced himself not to roll his eyes, thinking to himself that it was ridiculous. Disliking them was you, rallying troops to fight them to the death was you, and in the end, it was you who softened! If you knew this would happen, why fight in the first place?

Seemingly understanding Pei Yan's thoughts, the young man chuckled self-deprecatingly and said, "You think I'm very conflicted, don't you? The disgust towards them is real, but it's like humans raising pets; no matter how much you dislike them, over time you'll inevitably develop some feelings, right?"

Pei Yan nodded in agreement and continued to listen as the young man explained slowly, "And even if not out of emotion, at that moment when I was constrained by the Heavenly Dao of the Hell Plane, I realized that if I truly eliminated these monsters, it would cause an imbalance in the Hell Plane's environment and unexpectedly harm me. So, I left them a survival path, constructing an independent space underground similar to the original Hell Plane's environment, but much smaller, to house the races that could be tamed and obey orders, while exiling the untamable wild creatures inside it. At the same time, I invited the origins from both the Daoist Realm and Magic Realm into my world, and the three of us integrated the surface world of the Hell Plane into what you see now."

"Oh!" After hearing the young man's long story about the Demon Race's past, Pei Yan suddenly understood and tentatively asked, "You mean my future training ground is this little Hell that houses the original Hell creatures?"

"Smart! Not only you, but the Disaster Legion, aka Blood Demon, also chose the Hell Plane as the primary target, largely because of this place. The entrance to this underground city is right below you, within the Holy City."

"Blood Demon?" Pei Yan tilted his head in confusion, wondering how this related to the Blood Demon.

"That's right." Saying this, the young man lowered his head, showing a hint of guilt. He knew how much the impact would have on the young man before him if he passed the test, and knew that this matter could not be concealed in the end. So, after a few embarrassed coughs, he awkwardly said, "Back when we integrated the world, to disperse the killing and fear aura pervading the Hell Plane, we deliberately directed this aura towards the Foundation Plane."

"What?" Upon hearing this, Pei Yan jumped up from his seat, disregarding their identities, he angrily retorted with raised eyebrows, "What do you take our world for? A dumping ground?"

"Calm down! Calm down! This was a long time ago, even according to your world's timeline, this was thousands of years ago. It's nothing related to you personally." The young man knew the action wasn't very decent, waved his hand to signal Pei Yan to calm down, and said wryly.

"What kind of impact would it have on our world?" Pei Yan suppressed his anger and sat back, continuing to question.

"It would provoke humanity's inner desire for war and impulse for killing, frequently causing wars, along with fear aura triggering plagues, earthquakes, floods, etc. These disasters and calamities would continuously occur for a period of time."

At this moment, Pei Yan's face turned particularly dark, suddenly recalling a phrase from the internet: Hell is empty, demons roam on earth; and also recalled an ancient saying about how the human heart is no longer upright. What is there to be upright about! He now wasn't sure whether his world's historical development was due to releasing the evil nature inherently in human genes or influenced by this detestable killing aura!

"You don't need to be too angry, indeed, according to our expectations, this killing aura was supposed to cause more destruction to your world, and we were ready to take the risk to intervene. But the actual situation is the influence of this killing aura on your world is within controllable limits, which we didn't understand at first, now we do." Seeing Pei Yan's unpleasant expression, the young man hastily reassured him.

"Controllable limits still mean many people died, right?" Pei Yan already knew these origins wouldn't regard ordinary people's lives highly, he neither could nor wanted to argue with them, he sighed and said, "I saw Candle Dragon demonstrate the situation in Blood Demon Plane, that place truly looks hellish. According to him, the Blood Demon Plane absorbs negative emotions generated by various planes. So, most of this power flowed into the Blood Demon Plane?"

Thinking of this, Pei Yan couldn't help but gloat slightly: "This is the outcome of forcibly changing the world environment, like the domino effect in our world, your Hell Plane shirked the responsibility it should have borne, tilting this power away leading to the deterioration of Blood Demon Plane's environment and the surge in its strength. Today, karma circles back and they come for vengeance."

"Are you happy about this?" The young man was displeased with Pei Yan's unhidden smile and his bluntness in pointing out the consequences of his own past recklessness felt offended.

"A little!"

Crack! Bang! An invisible pressure emanated from the young man's body, instantly crushing the wooden table around Pei Yan and the sofa he sat on to pieces. Pei Yan fell to the ground and was pressed down heavily by this pressure, yet he did not intend to surrender. With blood-filled teeth, he pushed his hands against the ground, using all his strength to resist the pressure, stubbornly holding his form upright, exposing bloody teeth in a difficult smile toward the young man. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Seeing Pei Yan's expression, the young man gently hooked his finger, removing the pressure. Looking at Pei Yan kneeling before him, breathing fresh air, he sighed and said, "Just like my daughter said, you're a reckless fool. If it weren't for Lin Junzhao's repeated requests and the utility value you still hold for me, your life would have ended long ago, due to that mouth of yours."

Saying this, the young man opened the ice chest next to him again, took out two cans of beer, tossed one to Pei Yan, and opened one for himself, took a sip, and sneered, "Listen, kid, not all origins are as easy to talk to as Lin Ruxue. Moreover, even Lin Ruxue wouldn't show mercy to those who repeatedly offend her, so don't challenge our dignity with your willfulness, this is the last time."

"You're the one presenting an equal dialogue stance, I told you the truth, and then you got upset. Ah! It's hard being a person!" Pei Yan opened the beer, took a sip, moistened his throat, and spat the blood-stained foam to the side, helplessly saying.

"Ha ha ha, you're truly an interesting person! Alright, it's my fault for losing emotional control, let's consider this a one-time exception for both of us." The young man saw Pei Yan's demeanor, not angry but bemused, continued, "You're right, I am indeed bearing the karma now. However, the Blood Demon's attack on the Hell Plane is not only for revenge; their main goal is to breach the Holy City and unite with the Hell creatures sealed under the Holy City! If they really meet, that will be the start of a multi-plane catastrophe!"
