Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

When the almsgiver was pulled from the position as a God, the feeling of loss could not be described by any words.

Only when the almsgiver was pulled down did he realize that he had changed from the giver to the receiver. It was not just a sense of loss; rather it was similar to the refutation and query when betting on one's life to bring about a change of fortunes. Even time spent in shock would be short.

Only this time, when billions of people in the whole capital star heard what Chi Yan said, even the most egoistic and anti-beast human beings had a great shock and indecision rose from the bottom of their hearts in that moment.

They could open their mouths yet were unable to speak, were able to raise their hands yet unable to wave them. At that time, some kind of guilt and sadness gushed from the bottom of their hearts and made everyone unable to act. They could only blankly stand in the same place and feel all sorts of feelings well up in their heart.

Such silence was unexpected for human beings, but for the beasts and the three emperors, there was still some vague sense of comfort in addition to making the humans slightly surprised. Perhaps, it was because human beings were finally aware of their mistakes and even wanted to express something at this moment. However, if it was just like this, it was far from enough.

"Well, you've nothing to say? Then honestly go do something to increase your moral quality! The more time passes, the faster such a thing like a conscience disappears!"

"First, don't massacre any more beasts! Second, release the beasts you've have caught! " Chi Yan stuck out a third finger with no expression on his face, "Third, for the human beings who are extremely lucky to still have beasts willing to sacrifice their lives to accompany them (舍命相陪), take good care of your beasts."

"For us beasts, the loyalty we inherited from our ancestors remains the same, but your actions have hurt us too much. Even though we won't attack you actively, as one the three emperors, I hereby swear that those who attack us will be killed no matter how far away they are!"

When Chi Yan had finished speaking, a red triangle enveloped in flames appeared on his hand. When he extended the triangle to Qi QingLin, the latter was silent for a while before a golden triangle that practically matched the red triangle appeared.

"First, human beings are not to kill beasts. Second, release the innocent beasts. Third, value your comrades. The three simple laws are also same for beasts." (异兽亦如此，三简律)

With Qi QingLin's declaration, the golden triangle matched up with the red triangle. After a great collision of energy between the two sides, a huge triangular monument made of golden flames appeared in front of the public. On the east and the west sides of the monument, the three simple laws of not killing each other, releasing innocents and treating comrades kindly, appeared. Both north and south sides were as smooth as a mirror, as if waiting for more specific and better agreements to be engraved in the future.

Looking at the solemn and imposing triangular monument, for some unknown reason, there was suddenly a slight swaying and hint of peace in the hearts of both human beings and the beasts.

Even if at this time, human beings were still scums that commit all sorts of atrocities in the minds of most of the beasts, and they really wanted to bite the humans to death or half to death; even if at this time, there were all kinds of discordant voices inside the humans and some people even wanted to destroy the dazzling triangular monument; at the very least, the emergence of the three laws and the monument represented the beginning of a type of peaceful and beautiful future. He believed that with the passage of time, one day, it would become a grand sacred place for people and beasts to look up at and worship.
