"Theoretically speaking, there is indeed only this one possibility." Gan Xiushou strokes his beard and nods.

"This was truly a risky move, with a success rate of less than one in ten thousand."

"This child's courage and potential are even more terrifying than when I was young." He says in a low voice, his eyes flashing with brilliance.

Zhuo Mo has a shocked expression, his purple robe rustling, and he suddenly takes a step forward.

"Junior!"

"Your sword-path talent is rare in history; would you be willing to take me as your master?" He says loudly.

Venerable Zhuo Mo's voice spreads across the heavens!

Su Ming remains silent upon hearing this.

The surrounding Heisha members all have ugly expressions.

A Sixth-Turn Sword Venerable taking Su Ming as a disciple... this is a boundless future!

The most tempting part is that after Zhuo Mo wipes out the people of the Heisha Guild, he will inherit the real power of the Wan Wu Group.

If Su Ming takes him as a master now, it would be a step to the heavens!

In the future, he might even have the opportunity to rely on this fortune to ascend to the Seventh-Turn and achieve the Saint Realm!

Facing Zhuo Mo's solicitation, Su Ming remains silent throughout.

At this moment, the entire scene is focused on him.

Sincerity flashes in Zhuo Mo's eyes as he lands and says.

"Sword-path junior, think about it carefully!"

"I am different from Brother Gan; I don't have many offspring, and among my descendants, not one has talent that is even decent."

"Once I die, my inheritance will basically be cut off!"

He coaxes, wanting to move Su Ming.

"If I had a disciple with your sword-path talent, I would definitely teach you everything and give you all my resources!"

"I know that in a guild war, one cannot leave their guild."

"But you are not a person of Heisha; you have long since left Heisha!"

He raises his hand, his black sword slung behind his back, and reaches out toward Su Ming across the air.

"Those who wish to achieve great things do not get hung up on trifles; these friends and relatives beside you are all ants, just abandon them."

"Don't have any burden!"

"Become my disciple, and a much broader human world is waiting for you in the future!"

He smiles slightly, his temples slightly gray, and his eyes reveal a hint of kindness.

That's right, he truly appreciates Su Ming, this sword-path genius, and wants him to inherit his sword techniques.

"Don't hesitate anymore."

"Put away your weapon and kneel before your master!" Seeing Su Ming remain unmoved for so long, Zhuo Mo also becomes a bit impatient, his brows slightly furrowed.

"After I slaughter everyone in Heisha, I will take you back to the Wan Wu Group; wealth, resources, weapons, and equipment—you can choose whatever you want!"

"Kneel down!" He shouts angrily.

At the same time, his aura disperses, and an invisible pressure crushes down, wanting to force Su Ming to his knees.

But Su Ming still stands tall on the battlefield.

He hooks his finger slightly.

The blades around his body point toward Zhuo Mo, cutting apart that invisible pressure.

A hundred pairs of eyes are focused.

It can be said that Su Ming's answer basically decides the outcome of this battle.

If he defects, no one will be able to help Jiang Tianchi anymore.

On the Xuanjing side, if Su Ming is paired with three Sixth-Turn Venerables, Heisha will be wiped out in less than a few minutes.

Now everyone is sweating, nervously anticipating Su Ming's choice.

And what is Su Ming's answer?

"Heh." Su Ming just laughs lightly.

"In this world, there are things more important than power." He says with a calm expression.

Su Ming does not deliberately raise his voice, yet his voice spreads across the battlefield.

Hearing this answer without a moment's hesitation, everyone is incredibly shocked.

In his past life, Su Ming crazily ran dungeons to pursue power, his mind as indifferent as stone, and he did indeed eventually achieve the Eighth-Turn Killing God.

But he missed many more important things in life and was eventually betrayed and killed.

Now, having lived two lives, he understands much more and has matured much more.

His life experiences are even more thrilling, rich, and colorful than those of the two old men, Gan Xiushou and Zhuo Mo, combined!

The world thinks power is everything.

But Su Ming knows that the human heart is everything!

If one betrays their original heart, no matter how strong the power, it is a futile and powerless thing.

"Compared to power, I follow my heart."

Su Ming says indifferently.

Facing the myriad solicitations of the Evil Sword Venerable, he actually does not have the slightest hesitation.

Zhuo Mo's Sixth-Turn cultivation is actually not the most attractive thing.

The most attractive thing is the Wan Wu Group behind him!

After winning this battle, Zhuo Mo and Gan Xiushou will share this huge financial group, sitting on countless wealth, and can even get their hands on Ancient-grade equipment.

But Su Ming is not moved in the slightest by such solicitation.

This indeed exceeds the expectations of many people.

"Su Ming... you actually..." Bu Jue is also moved to tears.

Zai Da, Wan Tie, and others all look at Su Ming in shock.

This newcomer kid can actually face such a heaven-defying temptation and remain indifferent!?

Ji Yao, Yan Ze, Ni Shuang, and others knew Su Ming's answer from the beginning, so they just smile slightly.

"You... are you going to refuse!?" Zhuo Mo is shocked; he finds it inconceivable and didn't expect Su Ming to refuse so decisively.

"Correct!" Su Ming says decisively.

Gan Xiushou sees Su Ming's calm expression and hears what Su Ming said.

His aged, cloudy eyes tremble for an instant, as if he has seen something incredible.

"Destined to be infused with strange power, yet following one's original heart and remaining indifferent..." He mutters, as if reciting verses from some scripture.

"Such talent..."

"Such character..."

"Could it be... Innate Spiritual Clarity?!"

He is incredibly shocked.

As soon as these words are spoken, Zhuo Mo, Guo Xin, and Jiang Tianchi are shocked.

Su Ming himself also has a surprised expression.

Others are completely confused.

Without reaching a certain level or realm, and without a certain vision, the four words "Innate Spiritual Clarity" are unheard of.

Only the four Venerables and Su Ming present have heard of what this is.

The Lizard race has hard scales and Saint-Egg unique knowledge inheritance to help them fight.

The Vampire race has powerful attribute bonus talents and innate blood-slaughter skills to help them rank among the strongest races.

The Giant race has strong power...

All races in the world basically have their own unique talents and powers.

And... the Human race?

Humans are born with "nothing."

No sharp claws, no sturdy scales, no magic talent whatsoever.
