Chapter 12465

Lin Yi still felt confused: "So what does this have to do with me?"

Ji Ruxin calmly said, "The End Society is at its zenith, and while it is certainly due to your brilliant methods as the End Emperor, there is one thing you cannot deny."

“Every bit of revenue from the track that the Finale Club generates, especially the rewards you receive for finishing a track, essentially takes away everyone else’s opportunities.”

"Even if it's just out of the most basic sense of fairness and morality, you and the End Society should stand up and take on more responsibility, give back to everyone who has been harmed, and do your part for everyone."

Lin Yi: "Huh?"

To be honest, he was quite bewildered after the other party went around in circles like that.

To be precise, Lin Yi never thought that things could be explained in this way. The other party's logic actually sounded quite plausible at first glance.

At least the 100,000 people who were gathered there all felt that it was absolutely right and justified.

Ji Ruxin continued, "You are the Emperor of the End, a figure standing on the clouds, so naturally you shouldn't be so shallow."

"On behalf of everyone present, I sincerely request that you join us and uphold justice for us all."

If it were someone else, they might actually fall for this kind of moral blackmail.

Unfortunately, she met Lin Yi.

Lin Yi looked puzzled and said, "Upholding justice? Isn't that a right reserved for the Heavenly Palace? Even if you want to seek justice, you should go to the Heavenly Palace. It's no use coming to me. I can't overstep my bounds."

I was a little confused at first.

However, upon closer reflection, this kind of rhetoric was already commonplace in the secular world. Even if Lin Yi hadn't had much interaction with them, he had heard it countless times.

Ji Ruxin calmly replied, "Of course we will go to the Heavenly Palace, but before that, we must unite as many people as possible."

"As the Emperor of Termination, since you have taken over everyone's track opportunity, you should not stand idly by, both morally and logically."

"Otherwise, don't you think you've already put yourself in opposition to everyone, that you're at odds with fairness and justice?"

After his words, the crowd became even more agitated, and the scene suddenly seemed to be spiraling out of control.

Lin Yi looked at Ji Ruxin with amusement: "First of all, I never felt that I was taking away everyone's track opportunity. The track is equal, and anyone can participate."

"As for who will have the last laugh and win the race finisher prize, that depends on individual ability."

"The capable should occupy the position; this has always been the case."

Before the other party could refute, Lin Yi continued, "Secondly, the reason you came up with this argument is simply to stand on the moral high ground, morally blackmail me, and make me your vassal."

Do you even know the essence of your whole system?

"Generous with other people's money."

“If you really want to speak up for everyone, the thing you should do right now is not to stand here and morally blackmail me, but to go to the Heavenly Palace and the Five Saints of the Noble Families.”

"You should ask them properly how the rulers of Tianjun plan to settle the people you brought."

Ji Ruxin was speechless for a moment.

She had pulled off this move more than once or twice before, and it had always been successful.

This is why she has amassed a huge following among the public.

Despite her less-than-outstanding looks, she was ranked as one of the Four Wonders of Tianjun and could be compared to Kong Qianqiu. This is the huge advantage brought by her saintly persona.

Someone as discerning as Lin Yi could see right through her true nature.

However, the vast majority of people still prefer her style.

At least in this Tianjun, there is still a lot of demand for saintly figures like Ji Ruxin.

Ji Ruxin, being experienced, quickly recovered: "Morality is morality. There is no such thing as moral coercion. It's just that some people are inclined towards morality while others abandon it."

"The Emperor of the End has said so much, but all he really does is refuse to fulfill his responsibilities."

Upon hearing this, 100,000 people immediately lost control and launched a series of attacks on the church to end the riots.

The defense line was on the verge of collapse.

Lu Bukui and the others were secretly anxious.

Given the current situation, they dare not use excessive force against these people, otherwise, if casualties occur, things will get even more out of control.

Li Tianguo transmitted his thoughts to Lin Yi: "There are many experts from powerful families hiding in the crowd. They probably have ill intentions. We need to be careful."

Lin Yi nodded slightly.

The scale of this incident is so large that things are definitely not as simple as they seem on the surface; he had anticipated this long ago.

Behind them are the shadows of major powerful families.

At this moment, in a VIP private room of the Tianjia Tea House, more than a dozen prominent family figures were drinking tea.

Many of them are current heads of families.

Such a scene could never be seen anywhere else except at the Heavenly Palace Round Table.

Even in the Tianjia Tea House, this is a sight that is rarely seen in a century.

One of them spoke first: "If this Emperor of Termination can't hold back and directly attacks Ji Ruxin, then things will get interesting."

With their methods, even sitting in the tea room, they have a clear view of the situation at the Termination Society headquarters.

"That makes things simple. He attacked Ji Ruxin, so we can strike back at him with a legitimate reason!"

Xia Haotian, the head of the Xia family, said with a cold smile.

He was the main initiator of today's tea party, and everything that is happening now is naturally due to his behind-the-scenes efforts.

Of course, this is not just a matter for the Xia family alone. Since the others are present, they are already allies in effect.

It should be understood that the Five Sages of the aristocratic families are most wary of these families colluding in private. If they collude too much, the Heavenly Palace Round Table system, which they have worked so hard to build, will become a mere shell of its former self.

The bigwig next to him said worriedly, "Judging from this situation, if he doesn't take down Ji Ruxin, this situation definitely won't be resolved today. If we really make a move against him, what will we say when the Five Saints ask?"

Everyone looked at each other.

Xia Haotian snorted: "What else can I say? Of course, I'll tell the truth!"

"Our families have all suffered heavy losses; shouldn't we eat something to make up for it?"

"Besides, the Five Saints are high above and untouched by worldly affairs. We should at least give them a reminder so they don't forget what the name 'Tianjun Family' means!"

Everyone chimed in, "Old Xia is right."

Liu Aozhi was a tool in the hands of the Five Saints of the aristocratic families, and they naturally understood this. It was precisely because of this that they harbored considerable resentment towards the Five Saints.

Otherwise, we wouldn't be gathered here today.

Their goal was simple: to target the End Council and give the Five Saints a small warning.

Even a rabbit will bite when cornered; why should we touch their core interests?
Just then, a powerful pressure suddenly descended from the center, and the figure of the Killing Saint appeared.

In an instant, everyone fell silent.

The Killing Saint asked in a low, languid tone, "How do you write the four characters 'Tianjun Family'? Can you teach me?"

Xia Haotian froze on the spot, and the others didn't dare to breathe.
