1510 Decision Made! (1/2)
”Well…” Meng Youjiang was hesitating. He didn't say anything.
To only serve the master, to be willing to die for the master, and to devote his heart to the master were three different things. To serve the master, he didn't need to give up his life. To be willing to die for the master, he might have to give up his life when the master needed him to. To devote his heart and soul to the master, he didn't think he could do it!
”I will do anything he asks!” Meng Youjiang's wife decisively said, ”As long as he saves my son, I will do whatever he wants me to do! I can even be his concubine!”
Meng Youjiang was awkwardly embarrassed. He stared at the lady and said with a loud voice, ”You stupid woman! Stop talking nonsense! What do I do if you become somebody else's concubine?”
Bu Xiangfeng nearly laughed out, but he immediately coughed to cover the embarrassment. He said, ”The lady was just saying. She just wanted to express her gratitude to Master Ye. I can understand it…”
”That's right… She always talked nonsense when she was too excited.” Meng Youjiang hesitated, and then said, ”Old Bu, we are friends. Truth to be told, my wife and I are both unconstrained for a long time… If we suddenly become followers of somebody, we may not be able to serve the master well… I think we will pick the second option. What do you think? We will risk our lives to do one thing for Master Ye. Business in the martial world should be done in the way of the martial world. We owe him once, and we will return the favor. If we are lucky, we may get our job done without getting ourselves killed. If we aren't lucky, we are willing to give up our lives to return the favor!”
His wife didn't say anything. She just listened. Apparently, she agreed with her husband.
Bu Xiangfeng said, ”Of course. It is your decision to make. It doesn't bother me which of the options you are going to choose… Well, since you see me as a friend of yours, I guess I should be frank.”
”Please, Brother Bu.” The man and the lady were both listening.
”What happened to your son was an accident…” Bu Xiangfeng pointed at the couple's son. He sighed and said, ”To be honest, the martial world is full of accidents like this. Don't you agree? We are just lucky that accidents do not happen to us!”
”The City of Chaos, in fact, the entire Limitless Ocean has fallen into the suppression of the powerful forces. What just happened was only a small scale battle of many battles. It is such a misfortune that your son got involved…”
Bu Xiangfeng said, ”However, when the next battle comes, everybody has to pick a side. Even though the Dark Wind Mountain is powerful, I am not sure if you can get away from it. Can you?”
”Everybody knows that these super powerful forces will have their final fight sooner or later! However, it is always the middle and small forces who die first in battles!”
Bu Xiangfeng said, ”If anybody can seize the opportunity to join Master Ye's Monarch's Hall…”
The man and the lady both lit up their eyes, waiting for Bu Xiangfeng to finish his words.
Bu Xiangfeng smiled and said, ”Think about it… No matter what happens, as long as you are still breathing, you are never going to die… The Hall of Life and Death would never let our own men die!”
The man and the lady's eyes lit up like four spotlights.
'That makes sense!'
'We are powerful cultivators. That's true. However, when the super cultivators start a fight in the martial world, we are just as weak as ordinary people compared to them.'
'We will die if we get involved.'
'There are a lot of superior cultivators in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. The Saint Origin Stage sounded incredible but compared to those super cultivators, we are nothing!'
'Our son… He is too young, and he is always reckless… I am not sure if he will change after what happened to him. Maybe he will rush out to make troubles again after he is cured…'
”The Monarch's Hall seems to be extraordinary… Look at Old Bu. He is working for the master now. Is he weaker than us? After all, this man is a descendant of the Great Master Ye…”
Meng Youjiang's wife said, ”Master Ye needs more men to follow him right now. If we promise to follow him, we will be highly spoken of. We must admit that if we come to follow him when he already reaches greatness, our loyalty will mean nothing to him…”
Meng Youjiang thought for a while and then looked at Bu Xiangfeng. Apparently, he needed advice.
Bu Xiangfeng nodded and smiled. ”I am not going to tell you what to do. It is your own decision to make…”
”I see. We have to make the decision by ourselves.” Meng Youjiang tapped Bu Xiangfeng's shoulder and showed gratitude.
”All in all, it is your decision to make. After all, the two options are two totally different paths… You can be two free cultivators, doing whatever you want in the world, or you can follow somebody else's orders. They are two different lives. I don't want you to be regretful in the future. One false step brings everlasting grief.” Bu Xiangfeng smiled.
”We understand.”
…
Ye Xiao was holding a bowl with some liquid in it. He walked into Room One. Feng'er, Du Qingkuang, and the other two men humbly stood up.
”I made this for your big brother. Feed him half of this liquid in the bowl and apply the other half on his wounds.” Ye Xiao said.
The Temporary Life Dan beads Ye Xiao gave to the patients were the best he could do. Erhuo did well in making those dan beads. Ye Xiao wanted to use some ordinary Temporary Life Dan beads, but all Erhuo made were supreme level. After giving the dan beads to the others, Ye Xiao regretted. Those things were so valuable that it would draw him unnecessary attention!
That was why he decided not to use any supreme dan beads for the treatment.
Otherwise, before he recruited enough men, some great force might come and kidnap him. He might end up making dan beads for some powerful force in this world for the rest of his life, and that was not a joke.
Feng'er took over the bowl and blew over the liquid. She wanted to sip it and see whether it was too hot to drink…
”Don't!” Ye Xiao stopped her and said, ”It is for the patient! If you sip a little, he won't get enough.”
Feng'er was frightened, and her wrist shook. She nearly spilled some of the liquid. She was so scared and hurriedly used her Divinity Origin Stage power to become stable.
Du Qingkuang hurriedly came over and help. Half of the liquid was poured into Lei Dongtian's mouth, while the other was applied on the wounds…
