Seeing the Queen of Water Elements make a desk and a chair with magic calmly, Sui Xiong tried one last time to refuse the conversation. He said, “I really don’t want to know the secrets of you guys, my seniors. I’m not that curious!” But the Queen of Water Elements just sat down in a relaxing way and took out a wine pot and two cups from nowhere, waiting to have a chat with Sui Xiong.

“Please have a chat with an old lady,” the Queen of Water Elements said in a very humble way, without the posture of a senior at all. But what she said was still a threat to Sui Xiong. “Or, do you young men just like to chat with beautiful young girls and not with an old lady like me?”

Sui Xiong looked at her face and shook his head.

The Ice Queen was a first-class beauty. The gods didn’t care about the length of a life span at all; so what did age matter?

“Then, where shall we start?” The Queen of Water Elements held her chin in her left hand and thought for a moment. “Well, let’s start from the very beginning.”

From the very beginning? Does she want to start with “Five hundred years ago, a stone monkey was put into prison under the Five Fingers Mountain”?

Sui Xiong muttered in his heart like that, but he was too lazy to argue with her. He picked up the wine pot and poured himself a cup of wine.

The wine in the bottle was freezing cold, and Sui Xiong felt no burning feeling in his belly after drinking it. Instead, he felt quite refreshed.

He was shocked at that. This feeling was absolutely unusual!

He knew that this small cup of wine he had drunk just now might be more valuable than one water element heart.

Well, after listening to her story, I’ll buy several water element hearts from her. I bet she surely has some in stock, those high-class ones!

“I don’t know what the world was like at the very beginning. In my impression, the world was made up of two parts, matter and spirit, that’s all.”

Sui Xiong was shocked at Queen of Water Elements’ first sentence.

What the hell… Is she going to start from the birth of heaven and earth? How long will this conversation last?!

“At that time, the material world was not divided into the outer space and the inner space yet, and all kinds of elements and energy were mixed up in a mess. Many masters were born in the midst of the chaos, and they kept fighting with each other, striving to swallow each other to grow bigger. Of course, I was one of them,” the Queen of Water Elements said. “I don’t know exactly what the spiritual world looked like at that time, but it should be about the same as the material world.”

She paused for a moment and said, “I don’t know how long this chaotic situation lasted. At last, the war in the material world was coming to an end. There were more than a dozen powerful masters born, and they were unable to defeat each other. However, they were afraid of being killed by each other, and that developed into a delicate balance. You know, balance means peace.”

Sui Xiong nodded at that. Where did peace come from? Of course, it came from balance. Only the balance between different powers could truly bring peace to the world.

It was like the situation on earth—benevolence and righteousness couldn’t bring peace to people. Only when all the countries were within the attacking range of each other’s nuclear bomb could the world be really peaceful, for there would be balance between them. There were many places caught in war on the earth when Sui Xiong space-traveled, and that was usually because neither party involved in the war had nuclear bombs.

The Middle Eastern countries were always caught in wars, why? Because they were all weak. It was very difficult for them to really threaten each other.

If they were as powerful as the Soviet Union and the United States, they could destroy each other with nuclear bombs and send each other to see God. Then presumably, there wouldn’t have been so many wars since then.

Western scholars always said that the nuclear bomb was the greatest threat to human security, and that was something Sui Xiong never agreed with!

“However, that was only the peace of our material world,” the Queen of Water Elements continued. “Since we achieved peace within ourselves and stopped fighting with each other, we had to start a war with a foreign country. I think you can understand that, right?”

“Yes, I do. I fully understand that!” Sui Xiong laughed and did not say the second half of the sentence.

You were just a group of violent fanatics. I’ve seen many types of people like this in online games. They feel uncomfortable when they can’t kill others in the game for a day. If there is no battlefield available, they will run to kill those new players in other game camps. At that time, there was a famous player. His main account in the game was named ‘Three-Crop Rice,’ and he took upon killing those new players and other players’ second accounts in the game as his career.

“So we organized a legion and marched to the spiritual world.” The Queen of Water Elements suddenly smiled in a mysterious way. “Can you guess what happened to us?”

“Most probably you met the expeditionary force of your enemy,” Sui Xiong replied.
