Chapter 524 Unwilling
The clan chief also showed a look of shock. "In the words passed down from our ancestors, there was indeed a saying about the art of mending the sky. It was said that our ancestors of the Wu clan possessed such great supernatural powers. At that time, we just regarded it as a legend and did not take it seriously."
"Now it seems to be true."
The clan leader and his kin felt somewhat ashamed of themselves. Although they were from a collateral branch of the witch clan, their abilities were no match for those of the main witch clan.
The difference in strength and ability is too great, and they are unable to use their supernatural powers.
Even the vengeful spirits beneath the Ten Thousand Mountains were finding it difficult to suppress.
Su Muyao had always heard that the Witch Clan possessed many supernatural powers, but she didn't understand what those powers were.
Having heard these words, she roughly understood the situation.
The Witch Clan is indeed formidable.
Unfortunately, this witch clan was wiped out.
Fortunately, there was still Yue Wuhen, and she became more and more convinced that Yue Wuhen could come back to life.
She now knows that her blood seems to be a good thing, and she plans to go back to the Soul Gathering Lamp to have her blood drained and see.
If only her blood vessels were usable, then Yue Wuhen could have returned sooner.
Su Muyao said, "So the cataclysmic disaster is related to that giant beast's claw, but that giant beast's claw can devour you vengeful spirits, and after devouring you vengeful spirits, you can become stronger, right?"
The two vengeful spirits nodded in confusion.
"But since you've become vengeful spirits and have consciousness, why are you so malevolent?"
They shook their heads and said, "I don't know, but that giant claw seemed to carry a malevolent aura that could make us lose our minds and only know how to kill."
"In the end, the Witch Clan formed an array to suppress us, and at the same time, it brought our master back to his senses for a moment. The Witch Clan High Priest told our master that the vengeful spirits and resentment would fuel the power of that giant claw. Even if we were not devoured by the giant claw, but were invaded by its malevolent energy, we would become mindless blades that only knew how to kill. And by then, we would have already been invaded by the malevolent energy, because without the Beast God, this malevolent energy could not be purified."
"The best course of action is to suppress and seal us away. We must not allow that giant claw to devour us and increase its power, otherwise no beastman in the entire beast world will be able to survive."
"That giant claw seemed to be designed to turn the dead orcs into vengeful spirits to nourish and power it."
"Later we were suppressed by the powerful witch clan, and we did not resist."
"But after our master awoke again, he absorbed a lot of resentment and gained some power. He is different from before. Our master wants to break the seal and come out. Whatever our master wants to do, we will naturally help him do it."
They would do anything to help their master, even at the cost of their own lives.
Su Muyao pondered these matters, connecting many things together, and said, "Therefore, the orc with the giant claw is very likely the mastermind behind the cataclysmic disaster. He wants to kill countless orcs, use his malevolent energy to nourish the vengeful spirits, and absorb the vengeful spirits as nutrients to increase his power."
“The witch clan might have a way to deal with him, so he also wants to destroy the witch clan.”
"The Witch Clan may have used the full strength of the clan to mend the sky and protect the Beast World, but at the same time, the cataclysmic disaster did cause the death of countless beastmen in the Beast World."
"Those surviving orcs, through recuperation and rest, have led to the development of the beast world as it is today."
This is the truth that Su Muyao pieced together.
No one can guarantee the exact details.
Everything at this point is just speculation.
The clan chief and several elders also fell silent; the situation was more serious than they had imagined.
The clan chief sighed and said, "Only those who harbor resentment, bitterness, and anger are likely to become vengeful spirits after death; otherwise, they will not become vengeful spirits after death."
Su Muyao's expression shifted as she looked at the two vengeful spirits, sensing that they were growing increasingly weak.
She also understood that since they had become vengeful spirits, they had become one with resentment, hatred, and malevolence. Suppressing them like this would restore a sliver of their consciousness. Without resentment and malevolence, they would soon dissipate.
Su Muyao asked, "What exactly is the resentment and hatred in your hearts?" To solve the problem of vengeful spirits, we may need to address the root cause.
Otherwise, when the cataclysmic disaster strikes, vengeful spirits will be created.
The gray wolf boy's vengeful spirit was already losing its form. The thought of resentment made his clear eyes turn fierce again, but he was also confused.
"Why did my female mother and father abandon me? I still remember their voices. They said, 'Why is it another male? He looks rather weak. There are many brothers in the family. My female mother just wants to have females.'"
“I know females are precious, but why do you treat me like this? I’ve almost died in the mouths of wild animals several times.”
“I didn’t resent it back then, I just didn’t understand why. Later, a voice told me that it was all unfair and that only by destroying everything could it be changed.”
As he spoke of these things, the resentment around the gray wolf boy intensified once more.
The bear-beast boy said, "Is it wrong to be weak when you're young?"
"I can become stronger. I just want to prove that I am powerful."
"They're both male, so why is my father so cruel? Shouldn't males cherish other males?"
“I hate them, but before I could go back and prove myself, they were already dead, dying from the cold and hunger of the snowy season.”
"And I don't know who I can hate."
He harbored a deep-seated resentment and anger.
Su Muyao paused for a moment and then asked, "Are most of the suppressed vengeful spirits like you?"
The bear-beast boy's vengeful spirit said, "We are not needed or abandoned. Most of us are abandoned and disliked by our wives. Some are even harmed by our wives. We only survived because our master saved us."
"And some are wandering orcs who were abandoned and driven out of their tribes, and were rescued by their masters."
Upon hearing this, Su Muyao's face darkened; there were still tribes like this.
Indeed, not all tribes are peaceful and friendly; some tribes live in very harsh environments.
Leaving the tribe makes survival more difficult for nomadic orcs.
They could be devoured by wild beasts at any moment.
Spring, summer and autumn are better, but in the snowy season, it is easy to freeze to death.
The bear-beast boy said dejectedly, "Male beastmen dare not get sick, nor dare they get injured while hunting. Once they become useless in the family, they will be abandoned and discarded, whether they have a wife before or after they have one."
Only the most powerful will be valued.
Su Muyao asked, "Do you also have the idea of destroying this beast world?"
They fell silent.
Su Muyao knew that these vengeful spirits had these kinds of thoughts.
She vaguely knew what the cataclysmic disaster was related to.
The system said, "Actually, when there were Beast Gods, the twelve Beast Gods governed all the rules and laws of heaven and earth. Even if the Beast World was short of resources, there wouldn't be so much chaos. The Beast Gods would maintain balance and conservation."
"Even the malevolent and resentful spirits in the beast world will be purified by the beast god."
"Moreover, when the beastmen worship the beast god and have faith, their faith also restrains them and guides them toward goodness."
"Later, the Beast God ceased to exist, and the Beastmen no longer had any faith or constraints, so they became increasingly reckless in their actions."
"The divine realm needs to be revived, the order and rules of the beast world need to be restarted, and a new Heavenly Dao needs to be formed."
