731 For the Sake of the World, Please Accede to My Request! (1/2)
”The Misty Illusory Manor has spent thousands of years patrolling the world! We've always been fair when it comes to handling matters; could it be that you do not trust me?” The man in yellow pleaded sincerely. ”The purpose of Misty Illusory Manor is to restrain the acts of three Holy Lands and to monitor their behavior! Today, they will definitely accept my mediation! I can assure you this!”
Jun Mo Xie couldn't help but instantly understand why there was such a strange discord between three Holy Lands and Misty Illusory Manor. No wonder! With three Holy Lands's great influence and power, how could they just accept being under someone else's supervision?
But this person is a little too naive, isn't he… Answering honestly and truthfully to a question asked on a whim, not even attempting to lie…
Looks like the Misty Illusory Manor was just a simple world, with no rivalry; even if there was, it would be pretty rare. Perhaps, only a pure, simple place as such would be able to produce such a naive individual like this…
Jun Mo Xie was struck with the realization. If that's the case, then dealing with Misty Illusory Manor shouldn't be as difficult as he thought!
”Always fair? Patrolling the world? Then how could you not be aware of the incident that befell the Jun Family ten years ago?” Jun Mo Xie looked at him cynically.
”We have never intervened in small matters of the world, Jun Mo Xie. If we were to interfere in every unjust incident, we wouldn't have enough power to right everything.” The man in yellow hesitated for a while before managing a response.
”You have your reasons for making such a statement, and I do understand. Alright, then I'll now let you know! Whatever I'm doing is the follow-up of this 'small matter of the world' you speak of!”
Jun Mo Xie continued. ”Everything began because of that incident ten years ago. Since you did not intervene back then, you don't need to intervene now, and even more so, you don't have any reason to interfere! So please hurry on to mind your big matters, and have a safe trip!”
The man in yellow was stunned, and he stood rooted to the ground. Since he appeared in the pugilistic world, as long as he brings up the great ambition of doing something ”for the sake of the world”, no one would deny him. Afterall, no one wanted to be the villain in history, to oppose humans when they couldn't become the hero of the continent.
Furthermore, with his high and solid Xuan Skills, everything has always been smooth. Regardless of what sort of matter, it was always smooth-sailing. It was only when he met Jun Mo Xie that he learned of the existence of someone who didn't give a flying sh*t.
”But… this is for the sake of the War for Seizing the Heavens that happens in just two years time! A war that concerns the future of mankind!” The man in yellow looked angrily at Jun Mo Xie. ”How could you be so senseless toward the greater good?”
”Yes, actually I'm doing this for the War for Seizing the Heavens too! I'd also like to ask, you won't be participating in the War for Seizing the Heavens, will you?”
The man in yellow was taken aback, and snapped irritably. ”The Misty Illusory Manor has never and will never participate in the War for Seizing the Heavens!”
”That's great, that's great. You see, I'll definitely be participating in it, but my current martial arts is still too weak; it's highly likely that I'll die if I go. It's not a big deal if I were to die, everyone dies in the end. But it'll affect the overall outcome of the War for Seizing the Heavens. As such, when the world faces imminent threat, the lives of everyone will be in danger…”
Jun Mo Xie mourned dramatically, sighed, and said, ”Thus, Mr. Ambassador, for the safety of the continent and the sake of the world, I humbly beg of you to transfer all your martial arts to me via the Guan Ding Technique!”
”I definitely won't disappoint your hopes for me! I'll destroy the grotesque outsiders! For the sake of peace and harmony for the world, I will do my part! What do you think?” Jun Mo Xie spoke with a face full of high hope and holiness, with a genuine sincerity in his attitude.
The man in yellow felt like fainting, and he was almost swept along by Jun Mo Xie's words…
”I do know the Guan Ding Technique, but how could I do so!” The man in yellow replied in realization. ”Even if your intentions for partaking in the War for Seizing the Heavens are commendable, if I were to transfer all of my martial arts cultivation to you, wouldn't I disappear into a puff of smoke immediately?”
”For the sake of the War for Seizing the Heavens! For the sake of the world! What's the harm in making this sacrifice!” Jun Mo Xie said harshly. ”Since you won't be participating in the War for Seizing the Heavens anyway! Then won't all those splendid Xuan Skills you have go to waste? Won't they just be brought with you into your grave? Isn't that meaningless? Why don't you make your sacrifice right now! Then you can aid my chances of victory in the War for Seizing the Heavens! As such, I believe the entire continent would forever remember your great, selfless sacrifice today! The world would worship your valiant soul forever! You shall become the timeless hero of the world! How's that? Will you still refuse me?”
”No way! No way!” The man in yellow shook his head furiously. ”How could I do that! This is just fooling around! There are other measures that can be taken for the War for Seizing the Heavens, not such a method that will harm the interests of others! I've painstakingly cultivated and practiced my whole life; it did not come by easily! Definitely no! No matter how convincing and smooth-talking you are, it is impossible!”
”It's really impossible?” Jun Mo Xie's expression turned serious, despairing as if his heart is broken. ”You mean you are willing to become that villain in history? Are you really so senseless for the greater good? Where's your conscience?”
”Definitely not possible!” Perspiration was dripping down from his nose, and he wiped it away pathetically. ”I am sorry, but I really cannot be of any help.”
Jun Mo Xie sighed, changing his tone, he asked, ”Then what is your purpose of coming here?”
”I'm here to convince you few families to put everything on hold temporarily for the sake of the War for Seizing the Heavens, for the sake of the world, for the greater good! This.. This…” The man in yellow was stumped by the words he was saying.
He suddenly realized, that all these reasons and great meanings, were said by this youth just a few moments ago! And he had just outrightly refused this ”noble” plea…
Although the other party had made an outrageous request of him, but wasn't it the same of his request to the other party? Honestly making a comparison, if he himself was unable to accept the other party's request, what sort of reason did he to request of the other party then?
He let out a loud sigh and turned to Mei Xue Yan. ”Venerable Mei, what are your intentions then?”
”My intentions are her intentions!” Jun Mo Xie said firmly.
”I'm not asking you!” The man in yellow sighed, slightly raising his arm. A cloud of eerie, milky white mist scattered, and Jun Mo Xie suddenly realized that he could no longer move.
Jun Mo Xie was taken by surprise! He was currently a solid level two Venerable; to think that someone was able to restrain him in a second with such ease—what level of Xuan skill would that require? A technique of such a level easily surpassed Mei Xue Yan's World Cage, and by a few folds!
Mei Xue Yan let out a soft sigh before bowing slightly. ”This great Saint, it is just as Mo Xie said; his words are as good as mine. Mo Xie is able to make any decisions on my behalf! Regardless of timing or matter! I will always stand by him, even if it's a choice that concerns the War for Seizing the Heavens!”
Saint!
Mei Xue Yan actually addressed this man in yellow as ”Great Saint!”
The man in yellow laughed bitterly, obviously dejected. ”If that's the case, looks like I was asking for contempt then. I shall take my leave now!” He got up and exploded into a blinding dazzle without a single noise. That light disappeared in a second, so did that yellow clad figure.
Mei Xue Yan couldn't comprehend Jun Mo Xie's actions today, even finding it difficult to accept, but until the end, she still chose to support him without turning back. Especially before others, she would not throw Jun Mo Xie's face.
