Chapter 1777: He Is Still A Child

Qu Jianying wished to kill Di Long right now . Unfortunately as long as her brain was functional, she wouldn’t do something so foolish .

Clearly, Di Xin had been used by someone else . That fool’s idiocy had forced these two huge powers to an extremely dangerous precipice .

Qu Jianying was filled with hatred, but her mind told her that she couldn’t continue like this . If they fought, they would fall into the enemies’ trap, and it wouldn’t be a situation that they could recover from .

However, she was also unwilling to just swallow this . Her head felt a bit messy, so she turned to Long Chen, leaving this decision to him .

This action caused all the experts’ gazes to fall on Long Chen .

“Long Chen . ” Di Xin’s mother once more opened her mouth .

“You shut up!” A furious roar rang out .

This roar didn’t come from Long Chen but from Di Long . He bitterly hated this wife of his . His genius son had been raised into an idiot by her, and she didn’t even realize that it was her fault .

If she further antagonized Long Chen, considering his fearless nature, who could guarantee what he would do?

At this time, the head elder gently said, “Long Chen, you are an overlord in your own right . Even at such a young age, you swept through the Eastern Xuan Region . In the junior generation, no one can contend against you . Most recently, even with countless other geniuses competing, you managed to win first place on the Devil Slaughter Rankings, winning karmic luck for the Righteous path . You are an intelligent person, and you can also see that this is simply a trap . You know their goal . ”

“Whether it’s a trap has nothing to do with me . As for their goal, I don’t care . ” Long Chen shook his head .

“However, you can’t possibly not care about the millions and millions of lives within the ancient family alliance and the Martial Heaven Alliance . If these two powers were to clash, how many innocent people would lose their lives? As a member of the Righteous path, you have your own responsibility and mission . You cannot decide things based on your temper . ”

“Hahaha!” Long Chen suddenly laughed disdainfully .

“Why laugh?” The elder did not get angry . However, the other Netherpa.s.sage experts’ expressions sank slightly, dissatisfied with Long Chen’s arrogance .

After all, they were Netherpa.s.sage experts, people who were on the same level as the patriarchs of the large sects . Just speaking with a Soul Transformation disciple was a loss of status on their part .

As for Long Chen’s att.i.tude, it was clear that he didn’t care about their status . However, it also wasn’t a convenient situation for them to say anything .

“A family had nine sons . The hardworking one died first because he worked himself to death . The lazy one lived long due to his laziness . The smart one was tired due to his intelligence . The ignorant one was leisurely due to his…” Long Chen began to recite a common story said in the Phoenix Cry Empire . It was something a wise man had written .

Its meaning was that there were nine sons in a prosperous family . There was a smart one, a dumb one, a hardworking one, and a lazy one . As a result, of the outstanding ones, the hardest working one died of exhaustion, and the smartest one grew ill from taking on so much and died .

The sensible ones constantly had to look after their brothers that weren’t sensible, and their dejection eventually led to illness that caused their deaths .

Once they were dead, the remaining ones, who had grown dependent on them, lost their ability to survive on their own . As a result, all nine died .

It was an exaggerated story, but it did contain wisdom . In real life, those who were most outstanding had to endure greater pressure, and it resulted in them suffering more .

As for those who caused trouble, their parents had to pamper them and pay special attention to them . It was like the strong had to let others take advantage of them until they died from it . That was a morbid logic .

Now Long Chen was bringing up this story from the secular world here . It formed a resonance with many people, and they understood what he was saying: just how much had our alliance leader suffered because she was smart enough to care about the big picture?

As for Di Long, he was also the leader of his alliance, so why should he get to be willful and stupid while Qu Jianying suffered? This was trouble that he had provoked, so he had to pay for it .

Everyone was silent . Long Chen’s words contained great power .

“I understand what you mean, but sometimes the process isn’t important . Instead, a peaceful conclusion is what matters . Isn’t that all we want in the end? Exercising forbearance and yielding is sometimes the wisest decision that can win you the most things,” said the elder .
