Chapter 58: Messages from the Future

The information Feng Qi found next made him even more puzzled about the reasons for Mu Qing’s betrayal.
Many team commanders attended the meeting of domain combat teams organized by the Scarlet Research Institute, so this part of the information was not kept secret.
However, there were no videos remaining, only transcripts.
According to the information, the discussions at the meeting were mainly focused on how to effectively disperse the domain fields. Everything went normally during the meeting.
At this meeting, Mu Qing also expressed many views on the operations to disperse the domain fields.
However, just as the meeting was about to end, she suddenly killed several domain combat team commanders
Then, facing the siege of a crowd of commanders, Mu Qing killed a few more people and finally retreated with grace.
…..
After that, her trajectory returned to becoming the great demon king.
First, she recruited scavengers, then formed the rebel army, Dawn, and finally carried out a series of city-slaughtering operations, becoming a world-destroying demon king despised by later generations.
After reading this part of the information, Feng Qi felt that there were many suspicious points.
If Mu Qing was controlled by the Scarlet Research Institute during this meeting and became a secret weapon to resist against humans, that did not seem to make sense easily.
A tight plan could not allow for uncertainties to exist.
If Mu Qing was the secret weapon of the Scarlet Research Institute, it should have kept her under their control and not given her freedom to create potential uncontrollable risks.
However, if she was not controlled by the Scarlet Research Institute and had discovered the secret of the Scarlet Research Institute during the meeting before “betraying humanity”, it could not explain her subsequent actions either.
Since she had discovered the secret of the Scarlet Research Institute, why did she kill the commanders of those famous domain battle teams and not directly attack the Scarlet Research Institute?
Based on his understanding of Mu Qing, deep in her heart, she also yearned for humans to obtain the final victory. If she was not controlled, why would she massacre the city subsequently?
Unless that incident was fake!
At this thought, a terrifying guess appeared in Feng Qi’s mind.
Perhaps Mu Qing had never betrayed humanity from the beginning to the end. Instead, she discovered that there were many organizations similar to the Scarlet Research Institute in human society, so she established a force to eliminate them.
History could lie.
Just like how he had become a traitor to humanity in the evaluation of the future, it was possible that the history of Mu Qing betraying humanity was also distorted.
It was actually very easy to distort a piece of history. There was no need to even modify what had happened.
Just like how the event of humans harvesting honey could be expressed in many different ways.
Humans bred honey and then harvested it.
Humans enslaved bees.
Bees are selfless.
Every expression had a completely different meaning, but they described the same event.
As for Mu Qing’s act of massacring the city, it could also be interpreted into many meanings.
However, after continuing to read the relevant information, he felt that this explanation could not be used either.
He was back to square one.
Since Mu Qing had established the “rebel army” to eliminate a secret organization like the Scarlet Research Institute, why was there never a record of her attack on the Scarlet Research Institute in the database?
If Mu Qing wanted to eliminate the “malignant tumor”, the Scarlet Research Institute should be her first target.
Could it be that Star City was heavily guarded, so the rebel army could not attack?
At this thought, Feng Qi immediately shook his head.
This was because the Scarlet Research Institute was not only present in Star City. There were branches of it in many cities.
However, none of these branches had been attacked by Dawn. This meant that Mu Qing was not hostile to the Scarlet Research Institute.
None of the answers seemed to be correct.
Assuming that Mu Qing was controlled by the Scarlet Research Institute, why was she always free?
If she was not controlled, why would she betray humanity?
If she had discovered the secret of the Scarlet Research Institute and her establishment of a rebel army to massacre the city was fake, and was in fact, to eliminate the tumor hidden in human society, then why had she never attacked the Scarlet Research Institute?
All the answers seemed to show that Mu Qing had really betrayed all of humanity.
However, Feng Qi felt that this answer was definitely not the truth.
She had no reason to do so.
If Mu Qing betrayed all of humanity because of him, it would be a violation of the agreement between them.
If she really broke the agreement, her first target would still be the Scarlet Research Institute.
He felt that the reason for his death was secretly done by the Scarlet Research Institute.
Since Mu Qing would betray all of humanity for him, she would definitely investigate the Scarlet Research Institute. Therefore, the first thing she had to target was it. How could she ignore it?
None of the four answers made sense. Every answer had a loophole.
Time was limited. Unable to figure out the reason, Feng Qi could only give up for the time being.
Next, he entered the code for his private email in the database. Instantly, the page popped up.
After entering a 12-digit password, the mailbox opened, and messages appeared on the screen.
His future self had left behind a lot of information, including complaints about the trivial matters of life.
“Life is getting harder and harder. Although cultivation techniques like the Ferocious Tiger Fist can be taught repeatedly, this is not a solution. It’s too difficult to be a teacher.”
“I’ve decided. I will start self-studying. There’s no problem that can stump me.”
“Every day is very fulfilling, but 1 didn’t forget to secretly establish an organization to resist the Scarlet Research Institute. I’ve already launched a plan in this regard.”
“My students have very powerful backgrounds. If I can pull them into the organization, they will definitely be of help when resisting the Scarlet Research Institute in the future. However, 1 have to ensure that they are worthy of my trust.”
“Among the students, the one who gives me the most headache is the monk. He’s very unreliable. Others are here to study, but he’s here to eat and wait for death. I have to make him change. Old Wang said before, we can’t give up on any student.”
Time was limited, so Feng Qi skimmed through the unimportant information.
“I’ve decided to allow Mu Qing and Lin Ran to leave. I once wanted them to join the organization, but it turns out that 1 don’t have the ability to help them continue to grow after losing my cheat. Staying by my side will only restrict their potential, but I’ll pay attention to them in real time, as long as I’m still alive.”
“The organization was secretly established. Including me, there are a total of n people. The monk left after graduation. The other members of the organization are all your students. They passed my assessment and are confirmed to be useful to the organization. We have already started the relevant investigation of the Scarlet Research Institute, but 1 will remember that safety is the most important. We can’t take any more risks.”
“Mu Qing has formed the combat team, Dawn. I’m getting ready to go and celebrate for her. She has completely changed in this timeline and won’t walk the same path again. Lin Ran, Old Wang, and other friends will be present during the celebration party. I’m in a great mood today.”
“The party ended and I drank so much that I vomited. During this period, Mu Qing invited me to join Dawn, but 1 refused because I had more important things to do. Now that she has a better future and has completely changed, I didn’t choose to pull her into the organization. I’m scared that she will walk the old path.”
“By the way, 1 talked to Lin Ran for a long time during the party. He promised me on the surface that he would never come into contact with cultivation techniques again, but 1 know that that’s only on the surface.”
“Lin Ran made me deeply understand one thing. No one’s dissuasion will enlighten one. The only things that can wake people up from a dream are experience, loss, regret, and injury.” “Of course, if not for the fact that 1 can’t defeat him, 1 would definitely beat this b*stard to death.. If I can resolve it with violence, why waste my breath?!”
