1221 Die With No Regrets! (1/2)
”The air in here is not nice. It's too stuffy!” The Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master snorted and said. ”This Young Master is going out for a walk.”
Without waiting for the others to reply, he disappeared with a sou sound.
”What the hell was that! He didn't even apply for leave before going. How unruly! If the general was my Third Uncle instead, he would behead that fool on the spot!” Jun Mo Xie furrowed his brows and complained. Everyone rolled their eyes, pretending that they hadn't heard him.
F*ck, you were actually hoping for the Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master to have regimental discipline!? Why don't you go and ask a cock to lay eggs? That would be much simpler. The fact that this fellow could come here without creating trouble for the allied army is already an extremely fortunate thing!
Even if Jun Wu Yi was the commander, would he be able to behead that fellow? Don't kid around… what kind of knife will even be capable of beheading that fellow?!
”Alright, everyone, go back and prepare first.” Jun Mo Xie waved his hand irritably. ”I only have one request. The three Holy Lands must only attack at the appropriate time! This is a joint agreement. The signal will be easy to send out; you just need to send a long shout!”
Gu Han nodded, not saying anything more. He stood up and led the experts of the three Holy Lands out.
Mo Wu Dao walked right at the back, and when he was about to reach the door, he suddenly turned around and stared fixedly at Jun Mo Xie.
”Manor Lord Jun, this Mo has something to say.” Manor Lord Jun said heavily.
”Speak.” Jun Mo Xie looked back at him.
Mo Wu Dao was not Gu Han, and with Jun Mo Xie's current strength, he no longer put the former in his eyes anymore. As for Mo Wu Dao's schemes and plots, which he was good at, they did not mean anything here. Young Master Jun truly did not have the energy or the time to bother himself with him. But since they were now in an alliance, no matter how much he wanted to ignore him, he still had to entertain him with a few words!
”Back then, because of you, I lost my only younger brother. The two of us are already fated to not be able to share the sky since then!” Mo Wu Dao's eyes trembled as he stared at Jun Mo Xie. A sorrowful look came over his face as he continued: ”However, I will no longer have any opportunities for revenge in this lifetime anymore. Not just you, I also will not have the chance to take revenge against Zhan Kuang who destroyed the three Holy Lands!
”Not only do I not have the chance, this Mo even has to beg the heavens…” Mo Wu Dao's facial muscles twitched with agony: ”That the heavens would bless and protect you, to live on! Because if you die, this continent will truly be completely lost! It is an extreme contradiction! However, the world is just like this, utterly helpless!”
Praying desperately to the heavens, that an enemy—your mortal enemy—would live on safely…
What kind of feeling was that?
Perhaps Jun Mo Xie would never need to place Mo Wu Dao in his sights. But in this moment, Jun Mo Xie could clearly see Mo Wu Dao's torment!
”I will live, and live for a long time.” Jun Mo Xie indifferent eyes that seemed to look disdainfully at everything, suddenly softened a little. No matter what, for his enemy to think like this, was something that was worthy of respect.
”Saying these words right now are already too late, and it won't help with anything, but this old man still wants to say this. With regards to the things that this old man had done before, to Venerable Mei, and to Tian Fa Forest, this old man expresses deep apology.”
Mo Wu Dao laughed bitterly and raised his head as he said in a loud voice. ”Today, this old man will admit that I had done wrongly! However, I do not regret my actions! If time can be reversed, and I can choose again; then provided that this old man wouldn't know that the Pillar of Heavens Mountains would collapse, and things would come this far… then, I would still choose to do the same thing!
”I have no regrets!” Mo Wu Dao said heavily.
”At this time, there is no longer any need for you to apologize to me. Because I will not forgive you! Just as you do not regret!” Mei Xue Yan said blandly. ”As old enemies and as allies now, the only thing I can do now is to wish you a good journey ahead!”
A good journey ahead naturally referred to the Yellow Springs.
Although Mei Xue Yan didn't say it clearly, Mo Wu Dao naturally understood what she meant!
”One more thing!” Mo Wu Dao straightened his back and looked again into Jun Mo Xie's eyes as he said in a loud voice. ”I know you have many things that you are unhappy about with the methods of the three Holy Lands. And you don't have any good opinions of us! You think that we are arrogant and only chase only after honour and recognition. But this old man wishes to tell you, that although we've done many things wrongly, although we've harmed many people, we've only had one intention! And that is to protect this continent! To protect the people of this world!”
”Even if we die, even if we were wrong! No one can take away this honour that our Holy Lands had built!”
Mo Wu Dao finished, his eyes blazing brightly. With a swift turn, he left the tent.
As he walked out, the eyes of everyone of the three Holy Lands were also trembling lightly, shining brightly!
Even if we die, even if we were wrong, no one can take the honour away from us!
All of a sudden, everyone felt the belief that had died in their hearts, return like a roaring tide!
Only until the people of the three Holy Lands had walked a long distance away, did Jun Mo Xie's voice which sounded as if he was pondering something, ring out: ”Although I still have many opinions about your Holy Lands until now! Although I have killed many of you, having deep enmity with most of you; although you have done many wrong things that I will never forgive you for… But in this moment, I offer you my apologies for having suspected your intentions before!”
Jun Mo Xie added heavily: ”I apologize!”
This simple 'apology' from Jun Mo Xie, was exceedingly impactful.
Upon hearing those words, everyone from the three Holy Lands stopped, and they shook visibly. They could not believe that the lofty Evil Monarch would actually apologize to them! And it was such a serious apology!
