701 Someone Actually Refused My Telephatic Finger (2/2)
Wang Lu also thought about this problem. He did not know that the internal strife between the Earth Immortals could be this serious. He thought the reason why there was no defense at the door was because of Xuan Mo's hospitality. Now, it appeared that it wasn't Xuan Mo's original intention. Even when she was drunk at home, she had to rely on the magical putuan to sober up, and others also calculated that.
”It seems that someone intentionally wants to create a scandal between you and me in order to further push you out of the circle… Wasn't that Senior Gem Emperor a reckless man who lacks intelligence? How did he come up with such an intrigue? Isn't it humiliating for you?”
Xuan Mo said with a bitter smile, ”Senior Gem Emperor is just a man of fierce temperament, not a rash man. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to merge his position in the Earth Immortal camp so quickly… Alas, I merely borrowed wine to relieve my worries, but unexpectedly, I was caught up in such vicious intrigues. I think, by now, the news of my private meeting with you has spread far and wide.”
Wang Wu enthusiastically suggested, ”In that case, why don't we make it real? I have Telepathic Finger, and it had superb capabilities; it can help you get high. It would save you from being depressed for being framed.”
Xuan Mo simply acted as if she did not hear these words. In order not to fall into other people's trap, one immediately determined the accused. Only Wang Wu would imagine this kind of thinking. Fortunately, Wang Lu was the one in charge of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals, not Wang Wu. Thus, Xuan Mo looked at Wang Lu and looked forward to his statement.
Who knew that Wang Lu seemed to be inspired by his Master and likewise suggested, ”I also think it's better for you to change side now. There's no future for the Earth Immortals, so why don't you come and join us. As the first person from Earth Immortal camp to defect, you will enjoy a very high level of treatment; it's far better than suffering from exclusion here.”
Xuan Mo helplessly said, ”Impossible.”
”Nothing is impossible. Eventually we will merge. The difference lies in which side dominates. Now it seems that if you let Senior Gem Emperor gain the upper hand, you guys might as well lose to the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals. So, why not defect now? Although we are divided into two camps, Union of Ten Thousand Immortals and Earth Immortals, aren't we all not cultivators of Nine Regions?”
Xuan Mo paused for a moment and said, ”No, I can't. If I go with you now, nobody in the camp will be able to control Senior Gem Emperor… He owes me a debt of gratitude in the past, so he dared not be too rude to me.”
Wang Lu said, ”Since you are the only one who can hold him in check, then you're basically the thorn in his side. If you stay here, you would only suffer all kinds of crafty plots and machinations from him, and end up having your reputation swept away, so why bother?”
”I know, but I have no choice. You don't know what kind of person he is and what kind of things he would do. If no one is holding him back, it would cause disaster to both of us.”
When Wang Wu heard this, she waved her hand, annoyance clearly seeping through her face. ”Why are you being so difficult? If it was me, I would immediately issue him a challenge, invite him to fight a duel, and kill him on a stage.”
Wang Lu sneered. ”If he really had the ability and courage to fight him in a one-on-one fight, he would have entered the previous deity stage fight. Unfortunately, he's just pushing the wounded into battle.”
Xuan Mo said, ”Don't underestimate him. Of course, he would come forward to fight. He would wait for the next fight… In a way, he's more cruel than Black, so you guys have to be careful.”
Wang Lu continued to sneer. ”Rest assured, as long as he dares to come forward, I promise to help you solve this hidden internal danger.”

Afterwards, the three of them had some small talks. Wang Lu tried several times to persuade Xuan Mo to defect, but she always rejected the offer. With that, both gave their farewells and left. Xuan Mo's interest waned; it saddened her that her former comrades-in-arms had turned into enemies and had no intention of keeping Wang Wu and Wang Lu.
After leaving the Heavenly Earth, Wang Lu thought and said, ”This is really weird.”
Wang Wu nodded and said. ”It's really strange that a woman would refuse my Telepathic Finger.”
”... I think it's far-fetched for an awakened Senior Gem Emperor to cause a stir all of a sudden. It's definitely not a coincidence.”
Wang Wu said, ”If it's not a coincidence, was someone deliberately running to where he slept and woke him up with a passionate kiss?”
”... You're disgusting. What's the benefit for returning him back? The Earth Immortal camp is in turmoil and killing each other. It's totally beneficial for us.”
Wang Wu was about to make a joke, but when she saw Wang Lu's serious face, she also earnestly said, ”Perhaps people just wanted to bring back a strong support at first. They didn't expect so much debate would stir up after the awakening of Senior Gem Emperor. As the old saying goes, there must be great rule after great chaos. This Senior Gem Emperor acted so aggressively probably because he thought that even if he had to fight for a tragic sacrifice, it is necessary to integrate the camps' forces completely. If the Earth Immortals could really create complete order, it's not a good thing for us.”
”Besides Wang Lu's efforts, the disorganized power of the Earth Immortals is also an important reason why the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals has a slight advantage over the Earth Immortals. The leadership of Xuan Mo and Bai Ze is not strong, while the man in black rarely leaves. The Earth Immortals fight alone by virtue of their superior cultivation level. After the initial dominance, the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals would gradually find out the number of ways to make some targeted arrangements, which is inconvenient for the other camp.”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
However, if this Gem Emperor could unite the power of Earth Immortals and mold them into a united force, then the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals would not see better days.
”We'll see. This Senior Gem Emperor is just like a double-edged sword. Before hurting us, I'm afraid they might not withstand it… So I still feel strange.” Wang Lu touched his chin and said, ”I used to think the number one enemy is that man in black, but now there's this inexplicable Senior Gem Emperor suddenly. This development is too strange”
”The awakening of the Earth Immortals was originally inexplicable.” Wang Wu spread her hands and said, ”They said that they would leave a legacy for future generations, but now, after they awakened, they regretted it and wanted to refuse the deal. It's not strange that such a person would appear.”
