543 Mei Xue Yan’s Grievances (1/2)
Mei Xue Yan saw that Jun Mo Xie had evaluated his own self to be short of the desired goal. In fact, he had said that he might never be able to reach there. She hadn't expected him to do this. So, she couldn't help but smile. She then asked him in a perfunctory manner, ”What do you think of me?”
”You? You're an insult to my four essential traits! You're no better than a fool!” Jun Mo Xie showed no trace of politeness as he replied, ”You at best possess one trait among the four. That is, you are very daring. But, it is merely courage. However, having only courage without the other three factors makes you a daring fool in lay-man terms! You're only capable of blindly charging forward. So, there's nothing good to speak of it. In fact, you're even inferior to those common people who know that they don't possess any of these four traits. After all, there's hope that they can spend their lives in safety. However, you can only become a target of people's plots. You will drag yourself into their plots. You will drag your friends into their plots. In fact, you will even lead your entire family to extinction!”
”You!” Mei Xue Yan got furious, ”That's nonsense!”
”Nonsense? You are an intelligent person. So, think this through,” Jun Mo Xie sneered and said, ”First, let's talk about that time you were ambushed by ten top-notch Great Master Level experts. You had sustained serious injuries at that time. You didn't tell me about it even though I had asked; did you? But, I can determine what must've happened! You would've sustained serious injuries. Then, you would've escaped them. And, those ten Great Masters would've retreated as well. However, you would've only inflicted some minor injuries on them when you had broken out of their siege… You would've made no attempts to cause a life-threatening injury to them. And, it's needless to even mention about causing any physical disabilities to them. After all, everything would've been fine in your opinion as long as you could recover from your injuries; isn't it?”
Mei Xue Yan angrily looked at him as her snow-white teeth unconsciously bit-down on her red lips. However, that expression of anger in her eyes slowly turned into one of grief.
”Isn't this being kind and soft-hearted?!” Jun Mo Xie ruthlessly continued to criticize, ”You would've sustained serious injuries. You would've been brought to verge of death. You would've exhausted your strength. And then, you would've rushed out of their entrapment, and fled. Those experts had survived because of your generosity. However, they wouldn't repay your kindness of sparing their lives. Instead, this would've only made them fiercer in their attempts to kill you! Thereupon, you would've returned to Tian Fa after that blood-soaking battle, and you would've thought that you managed to make the best of it! Isn't this how that incident happened?”
Mei Xue Yan turned her head in pain. Jun Mo Xie hadn't seen or heard about that incident. However, he had still managed to guess the sequence of events. But, she still couldn't understand their actions… [Why? Everyone is going to participate in the Battle for Seizing the Heavens. Everyone will be fighting for the sake of the mainland and its common people! Then, what's the point of this internal strife? Why would someone wish to murder their own ally? Isn't their ultimate goal the same as ours?]
[However, I know that they're determined to fight against the foreign aggression. The security of the mainland is their highest priority. I'm very clear about this point. And, that's because these people have remained undaunted by dangers in the face of those foreign enemies. They don't even hesitate to sacrifice their lives! They've fervently spilled their blood on the Pillars of Heavens Mountains. In fact, the spirit of their heroism still persists in this world!]
[Why? How can they not realize that Xuan Beasts also understand this reason?] Mei Xue Yan couldn't believe that they hadn't realized this. But, this only made it harder for her to understand the reasons behind their actions.
[Killing me and eliminating the Tian Fa Forest will only lead to the loss of one powerful ally in the Battle for Seizing the Heavens! Moreover, they will also lose a great amount of their military strength in doing so! Why do they wish to do this kind of a thing wherein they harm others without even benefitting themselves?]
”Are you still confused?” Jun Mo Xie looked at her with indifference and said, ”How could they not understand something so obvious? Everyone obviously has the same goal and the same enemy. So, everyone should cooperate with each other with sincerity. What's the point of this internal strife? After all, wouldn't killing one's allies be akin to pleasing the enemy?”
”That's right! Why? I genuinely don't understand this! This question has always confused me. Was my Tian Fa Forest not the vanguard of the Battle for Seizing the Heavens for thousands of years? Have we ever taken a step back? How many Beast Kings have been buried on the Pillars of Heavens Mountains over the course of these thousands of years? Ah?! The numbers are untold! I can boldly dare to say that this mainland would've ceased to exist a long time ago if the Tian Fa Forest hadn't been there to support their trinity!”
Mei Xue Yan's eyes were shooting flames, ”However, the Three Holy Lands wish to put the Tian Fa Forest to death now! What is this? Why?”
”You Beast Kings of Tian Fa have a pure character. And, we've never been able to attain this greatness in character. However, this advantage of yours is also the greatest chink in your armor. Don't start denying it right away; answer this question first…”
The expression in Jun Mo Xie's eyes softened, but they still continued to sparkle as he said, ”I don't understand why only Three Holy Lands were formed after the first few Battles for Seizing the Heavens… Why were there Three Holy Lands and one fierce land? Why weren't there Four Holy Lands instead? Why only Three Holy Lands? Have you ever thought about this? The Tian Fa Forest was equally vigorous. In fact, it was the side which possessed the maximum strength. So, why wasn't it included in the Holy Lands? Why was it named a fierce land instead?”
”This…” Mei Xue Yan hesitated. She had never thought about this issue. There had only been Three Holy Lands and one fierce land since the ancient times. And, Mei Xue Yan had never thought that it was inappropriate. In fact, she had believed that it was inevitable and correct. After all, the Tian Fa Forest was a fierce land which no man could dare to offend. This had remained the notion for the last ten-thousand years. And, no experts from the human world had ever dared to invade this Holy Land of the Xuan Beasts.
