“There’s no need for the trouble!” One Saint Venerable glared at Jun Mo Xie hatefully. “Our brothers that we’ve spent thousands of years with have already died. We are not ones who are attached to life; the reason why we have yet to end ourselves is merely because we wish to be able to kill a few more strange race sc.u.m in this great battle, that’s all! All of us have decided to sacrifice ourselves in the battle this time. Jun Mo Xie, let us settle our debt in the next life!”
“Fine! It is also one of your options.” Jun Mo Xie said coldly. “If you really have a next life, I’ll definitely keep you company!”
The five of them scoffed coldly and turned around. They sat down cross-legged beside that giant pit and began to meditate. Not a single one of them looked at Gu Han, or even at any of their fellow soldiers of the past.
Only five, lonely individuals, neither part of Tian Fa nor the Holy Lands.
Not part of the world, the country, anyone or even themselves!
“Manor Lord Jun, you managed to stand up for your brothers this time! But did you consider how we are going to fight the battle against the strange races after losing so many experts in this internal strife?” Gu Han sighed and he shook his head, the more he thought about it, the heavier his heart weighed.
“How to fight? Just fight the way we’re supposed to fight.” Jun Mo Xie said nonchalantly. “We can’t possibly just stretch our necks out for them right?”
“You…” Gu Han stomped in foot, chuckling from anger. “Jun Mo Xie, did you know that if we lose this battle, your reckless behaviour today will definitely play a big part in it?! When that time comes, you’ll be the person who doomed mankind ah… Don’t tell me you really don’t care about that?”
Gu Han regretted. He truly regretted.
When so many people stepped out just now causing the conflict to completely worsen, Gu Han already knew that there was no way to salvage this matter. But he still harboured a tiny hope. That the majority will not be reproached.
Even with Jun Mo Xie’s current prowess, it was not possible for him to completely deal with so many experts completely. Even if Jun Mo Xie had a trump card, before righteousness, Jun Mo Xie would have greater considerations and change his mind.
When they fought for a while and vented all his anger, he would go and dissuade them. By then, Xia Chang Tian and Ji Bo Wen would recognize that Jun Mo Xie was a force to be reckoned. And they would indeed need each other’s strength for the great battle. He believed that after both parties considered the situation, they’d give him the face and call a temporary truce. Even if they settle their scores after the battle, it’d still be better than draining themselves internally…
But Gu Han never expected that Jun Mo Xie would start with such an imposing attack! Using his trump card that gave no chances at all!
He barely had time to blink—forty out of the group of almost fifty had fallen into an impa.s.se that was impossible to escape! Their life and death were all at the Jun Mo Xie’s fingertips!
And Xia Chang Tian began to fight Jun Mo Xie to death with less than three sentences exchanged! And it didn’t even take long before he was forced to self-detonate… And Ji Bo Wen went berserk to seek revenge, attempting to harm the entire Tian Fa camp, and ultimately turned into a wisp of smoke!
Everything was too much for the eyes!
Everything had happened too quickly! Gu Han had not even thought of a good excuse to stop them, the dust had already settled!
Until the end, he only saw Ji Bo Wen’s body shriveling before disappearing completely…
Gu Han could only say that his heart was in extreme agony!
The way Jun Mo Xie handled matters was too tyrannical, too merciless! Not even giving anyone time to think.
When he realised it, everything was over…
“Even if all the responsibilities fall on my head, so what? Even if we are truly defeated, so what? The t.i.tle of a sinner… have I ever cared about it?” Jun Mo Xie chuckled indifferently. “Even if… it is wrong, so what? When I, Jun Mo Xie, set my mind on something, I never care what is right or wrong! My only question if I should or shouldn’t! If I would feel guilty!”
Gu Han was so furious that his beard trembled. He chided: “You… Your way of handling things completely does not take the bigger picture into consideration!”
“Think of the greater picture? Thinking of the greater picture will only result in grievances to be suffered… That is too tiring and too foolis.h.!.+ Tia Fa has always been thinking of the greater picture; that’s why the moment the Pillar of Heavens Mountain collapsed, they rushed here immediately, sacrificing themselves without hesitation to hold the strange races back. But what did they get? Only allies who watched on coldly, making cynical talk, not even putting their sacrifice and contributions on their minds! Was Xia Chang Tian very considerate of the bigger picture? I’m bitterly disappointed by the matter today!”
Jun Mo Xie shook his head and said indifferently. “I have always been an extreme person! I am also not one who will bother about the bigger picture or whatever! I only know that even if I can endure the grievance, my brothers must not suffer any grievances because of me! If my brothers suffer grievances and was set up by someone, I must make the person pay! No matter what the price is, I will make them pay! If someone hurts my finger, I must break their arm! That is all!
“I am not a successful leader and also not a suitable judge. I’m… just a wanderer who does what he wants. I only seek a clear conscience.”
Jun Mo Xie continued to chuckle apathetically: “It is not that my brothers cannot die. Since they came to this battlefield, they already made the preparations to die! But that does not mean that they can die because of someone else! Dying on the battlefield, I have nothing to say, and will feel proud of my brothers! But the problem now is that they could have not died! But because of their supposed ally, they sacrificed themselves. So I want revenge, I must get this justice!
“I will never hesitate when it comes to things that I should do. Just like the battle this time, I could have chosen not to come! I believe that with one command of mine, not a single person from Tian Fa or the Evil Monarch Manor will appear here. But I still came. Ma.s.sacres will always come with sacrifices, but it doesn’t matter! My brothers and I have always been clear of this; since we came here, we were prepared to not make it back alive!”
He raised his head and looked at Gu Han. “Even if we died in the most tragic way, we will have no complaints! But if we were to die in such an obscure manner… No can do! Not a single subordinate from Tian Fa or the Evil Monarch Manor will fear any sort of powerful enemy. But they will fear comrades and allies that stab them in the back! Since people from the Holy Land caused my brothers to die for such a dubious reason, then I must seek justice. As to what sort of outcome will result from this justice… I never considered it. Because there is no need for consideration!
“Too much considerations will only hinder your actions. It’s tiresome!” Jun Mo Xie flashed a wide grin. “Living more simplistically, like me, how great is that?!”
Gu Han was speechless, genuinely feeling helpless to his core!
Meeting someone like Jun Mo Xie, no matter what sort of great reasons, it would not be convince him! No matter how or what you do, he had his own way of doing things!
You have thousands of reasons, I have a fixed rule!
I do as I pleased!
That was all!
Directly ignoring the consideration of all the lives of the world, what else could you hope for him to consider?
Someone who only cared about the smaller righteousness, what else could you say?
“By your logic, if everyone was like you, then what would happen to this world? If I protected my own brothers like you, then what would happen?” Gu Han was a little frustrated with anger. “Then, who will protect this continent? Who will be responsible for mankind?”
“Who asked you to be responsible? Did anyone ask you to be responsible?” Jun Mo Xie rolled his eyes. “Ridiculous! Did anyone really kneel down and beg for you to protect this continent? I’ll just tell you, that’s none of your business! Look at how you’ve pampered all these people? All of them don’t know how to be grateful, and don’t think about showing grat.i.tude, and you still fight for them? Fight for f*ck?”
“You- You- You…” Gu Han was so angered he couldn’t speak.
It had been thousands of years since he was so angered to this point!
“What about me? As to the part you say… what will happen if you protect your brothers like me, what will happen? I really do not know about this. How would I know about something that had never happened before? But we will know naturally after we fight.”
Gu Han felt the urge to vomit blood.
This was clearly a fallacious argument! He really didn’t know what sort of foolish brain was Jun Mo Xie using to say it!
We will know after we fight it out? Wasn’t this just complete bullsh*t? If they could really fight it out, wouldn’t they be joining hands to gift themselves to the strange races?”
It was completely absurd!
Watching how furious Gu Han was, Jun Mo Xie suddenly burst into laughter.
“Do you find my words unpleasant to hear?” Jun Mo Xie said mockingly. “I can tell you that if you wish to unite the hearts of the people to fight against the enemy, then you must allow them to suffer some hards.h.i.+p for it to be meaningful! Those at the back do not know anything, the entire continent is in celebration, but only you guys were protecting the continent for ten thousand years… let’s not even talk about whether it was benevolent of you. If you say that you protected the continent, will those people who had never seen the strange races believe you? No! They will only think you are all a bunch of liars!
“Humans will only know how to retaliate after they’ve received a certain amount of pressure. They will only unite as one out of their own will when they’ve received enough repression.” Jun Mo Xie said apathetically.
“And the three Holy Land are the same! Selfish and full of yourselves, like those you are defending! When the strange races came waging war, you are able to just gawk and watch the downfall of your allies, using your comrades as cannon fodder… Haha, Senior Gu, don’t blame me for not mincing my words, even if the three Holy Lands are not ruined in this battle, you will be destroyed by this sooner or later one day!
“For ten thousand years, you silently guarded Pillar of Heavens Mountains, this sort of deserted place. Silently sacrificing, it sounds very magnanimous. But don’t you forget that all you’ve done is improve the strength of three Holy Lands, while everyone else on the continent doesn’t feel the slightest bit of danger, so they don’t make much improvement. There are an even greater number of people who don’t even know of the existence of the strange races. But what about the strange races?”
Jun Mo Xie laughed mockingly: “I recall that you mentioned before that you rotate your Saints and Saint Emperors for training to strengthen them. But had you never considered that while you are training your soldiers, similarly, you’ve helped the strange races strengthen their soldiers for ten thousand years! Did you think of what is the difference between the two?!”
Gu Han suddenly felt as if he was struck by lightning, his perspiration poured out. He was completely stunned! His heart began to throb intensively.
“The strange races live in bitter and harsh conditions. But regardless of adults or children, their mission is to invade the continent. Did you see the corpses of the strange races on the battlefield today?
“There were a large portion of them that were donned in rags, barely dressed properly. It is obvious that they are the weakest forces on the strange races. But I’ll tell you! Their weakest are at least the level of a peak level Earth Xuan! A large portion of them are Sky Xuans! Twenty thousand Sky Xuans, can you imagine it?”
Gu Han continued to stand in shock, as if he did not hear what Jun Mo Xie said.
“Indeed, this time we managed to kill off almost twenty thousand of them! It is a glorious feat! But this is the strength the strange races managed to gather in half a day!”
Jun Mo Xie scoffed coldly. “I dare ask Senior Gu, how many Sky Xuans do we have in the entire continent? How much preparation time do you need to gather a twenty thousand Sky Xuan army? Let’s not talk about half a day like the strange races; if I gave you a month, would you be able to do it?”
Gu Han’s face turned red before turning entirely pale.
“Perhaps we are about the same in terms of higher level experts. But when it comes to those of lower levels, we are far from it!
“In all the past War for Seizing the Heavens, it had always been a small battle and not a large scale one! But now, the Pillar of Heavens Mountains has collapsed! The strange race’s army will be uninhibited!
“Everything is ultimately caused by the three Holy Lands!” Jun Mo Xie said mercilessly. “Because those you are protecting do not feel any pressure, they will not work hard to cultivate, so the Xuan Xuan Continent may be big, but it is lacking in its own experts.
“Even if there are some, when one finally appears, they’re immediately swept away by the three Holy Lands. Using fame and reputation to make them join you. But after they’ve joined, how many of them became small fries? And how many people stopped working hard because of this?
“And all these people are the seeds of various places. Hoping to be able to teach and guide countless outstanding disciples to improve the strength of the continent. But they are all locked away in the deep mountains by you guys!
“In the long run, while the strange races all became soldiers, the people of the continent were merely a bunch of lambs waiting to be slaughtered!
“Although there were hundreds, or thousands of the strange races, that was countless of Sky Xuans and Earth Xuans!” Jun Mo Xie said incisively. “And this is the result of your help in training their soldiers!”
Everyone turned silent, carefully considering Jun Mo Xie’s words.
“The three Holy Lands has taken the War for Seizing the Heavens as your eternal glory! An exclusive glory that only belonged to you! You would rather taste loneliness in the deep mountains to wait for the next glory your sacrifice will bring than be willing to spread more seeds in the Continent!
“You treated this war as glory, your personal glory, and refuse to condone bath in your limelight! Even if they are genuinely helping out of good intentions, you seek to eradicate all future threats from them! Tian Fa is the best example!
“And the result of this is the Continent weakening while the strange races get stronger and stronger!
“Tian Fa had always helped you obtain victory in the War for Seizing the Heavens for the sake of righteousness. But you all see it as them s.n.a.t.c.hing and sharing your glory! And feel uncomfortable because of it! And for the sake of ensuring your place as a saint, you even try to eliminate your own ally!”
