Chapter 1215: Damn These Heaven-Killing Pit Goods!
"Wh... what?"
Mo Junchen's eyes widened in shock, his face frozen in utter stupor.
A million Gang Members?
You're named 'Million,' and he's named 'Gang Member'?
This damn thing is what you call the Explosive Heaven Gang's million Gang Members?
Coming to his senses, Mo Junchen trembled all over, nearly fainting from rage!
Shameful, terrifying, detestable!
This time he was truly fooled miserably; if it hadn't been suddenly exposed, how much longer would he have remained in the dark?
"Heh! Foolish, so foolish! This Seat should have realized it long ago!" Mo Junchen suddenly laughed with self-mockery, shaking his head repeatedly to ridicule his own stupidity.
When he saw Xu Que fooling others while Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude cooperated, he should have realized this point long ago.
Back then, these two humans and one dog spoke to him in exactly this manner, fooled him in exactly this way, yet he had believed it as truth!
The greatest tragedy in a person's life is loving to fill in gaps with their own imagination, patching up every loophole for others, being self-righteous and believing that given the other party's identity or Status, they could never tell such absurd Falsehoods!
Only now did Mo Junchen realize belatedly that earlier, when Xu Que cast that colossal lie before the crowd, he had even mocked those people for being too stupid to believe such ridiculous words.
Little did he know he himself had been deceived; it was only because he later walked together with Xu Que and the others, becoming an outsider to the scheme, that he could laugh at those trapped inside!
To speak plainly, this was purely a case of not recognizing the true face of Mount Lu simply because one is within the mountain itself!
"Sigh, Guardian Mo, don't be like this; now that you are one of us, we could never deceive you again!" Duan Jiude walked over with deep emotion, comforting Mo Junchen, fearing Mo Junchen might go mad from anger and turn to attack them!
"Yes, Guardian Mo, the Explosive Heaven Gang values integrity above all; what happened back then was merely an accident..." Er Gouzi also spoke up immediately.
"Don't you damn well mention the Explosive Heaven Gang to me!" Mo Junchen instantly flew into a rage; usually gentle and refined, he finally could not hold back from cursing.
Glaring furiously at Er Gouzi, Xu Que, and the rest, he snapped, "You might as well honestly tell me exactly how many members the Explosive Heaven Gang has; stop playing these 'million Gang Members' jokes with me!"
"Hey, Guardian Mo, don't fuss over such details; just think about it, even if we truly had a million Gang Members, what use would it be? Cultivators focus on strengthening themselves and shouldn't rely too heavily on external forces!" Er Gouzi waved his dog paws, earnestly brainwashing Mo Junchen with a serious expression.
This time Mo Junchen had learned his lesson from a setback; he immediately shouted, "Er Gouzi, don't try that routine on me!"
Having said that, he swept his gaze toward Xu Que and said in a deep voice, "Gang Leader Xu, the reason I still address you as Gang Leader now is because I still maintain respect for you; this has nothing to do with cultivation realms or age, but because you possess astonishing Heavenly Talent and astonishing perseverance; what impressed me most about you back then was the moment you inherited the Overlord Body while in the Realm of the Underworld King—that extraordinary unwillingness to accept fate and courage unlike any other filled me with sincere admiration; from that moment on, I knew your future would definitely be extraordinary."
"But?" Xu Que smiled slightly, responding calmly; generally, following this sentence pattern, the other party would definitely have a "but"!
"But, I have discovered I was wrong; you are simply wasting your Heavenly Talent, acting without any method or order, even disregarding rules and righteousness; to put it bluntly, your actions are worthy of a Demon Sect member—sinister, base, and cunning! If you continue to be so flamboyant, one day you will inevitably be crushed in the cradle," Mo Junchen said in a deep voice.
Although every word was precious, strangely, none of the several people present could feel hatred toward him, because his words radiated sincerity; he purely wished to awaken Xu Que and act for Xu Que's benefit, not out of mockery or humiliation!
Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude both lowered their heads in shame.
Xu Que also sighed slightly, daring not to look Mo Junchen directly in the eye!
Seeing this, a trace of warmth arose in Mo Junchen's heart; at least this showed they were still salvageable!
"I have said all that needs to be said; Gang Leader Xu, although the Explosive Heaven Gang does not have a million Gang Members, if you can restrain yourself somewhat, given time, no one in Tianzhou will be your match; please believe that you are already unprecedentedly excellent, and your future will definitely be extraordinary; this is also the reason I still wish to address you as Gang Leader Xu."
Speaking to this point, Mo Junchen's eyes were full of determination as he declared forcefully, "I was able to abandon everything in Earth Continent and follow you all to Tianzhou primarily because of you, Gang Leader Xu; I am willing to wager my future on your prospects, believing that one day, because of you, I will walk toward a stronger Heaven and Earth!"
These were Mo Junchen's true words; especially after personally witnessing Xu Que's rapid and exaggerated increase in strength within the Battlefield Ruins, he became even more certain of the resolve in his heart: this young person's future was limitless and unimaginable!
Therefore, it was impossible for him to leave in a huff over the matter of the million Gang Members.
Moreover, he had boarded a pirate ship; now that people from the Heavenly Palace Academy were searching everywhere under Heaven for them, getting off this pirate ship would not be so easy; he could only walk this path to the very end!
"Good, Guardian Mo, I sincerely apologize to you for everything before!"
Xu Que walked seriously before Mo Junchen, patted his Shoulders, and stated solemnly, "I am sorry; from now on, I will never deceive you again; of course, before that, I must once more say sorry to you, as I accidentally set up a Killing Array around you just now, but now I have withdrawn it!"
Having spoken, before Mo Junchen's bewildered gaze, Xu Que waved his hand and pulled an Array Disk out from beneath Mo Junchen's feet.
At this moment, Er Gouzi also stepped forward and said movedly, "Guardian Mo, This Divine Venerable is guilty! While you were speaking just now, This Divine Venerable secretly poisoned your mouth without your notice; here is the Antidote, please take it quickly!"
Saying this, it actually took out a Pill and handed it to Mo Junchen.
Mo Junchen: "???"
"Ah... Guardian Mo, this old man was wrong, terribly wrong!" Suddenly, Duan Jiude also howled like a wolf, rushing forward with tears streaming down his aged face and tightly embracing Mo Junchen.
"Guardian Mo, actually everything you saw just now and are seeing now is an Illusion; this old man secretly set up an Illusion Killing Array around you without your notice; in reality, the several of us have already run far away; however, we heard all your words just now; here is the method to break the Formation; quickly break the Formation and catch up; we will wait for you!" After speaking, Duan Jiude handed Mo Junchen a Jade Slip.
Immediately following, the figures of Duan Jiude and the others all blurred and vanished, leaving only Mo Junchen standing alone in disarray amidst the Wind.
At this moment, Mo Junchen's chest ached; he truly wanted to spit blood!
Truly!
These damn Pit goods, these heaven-killing Pit goods!
The Virtue-Lacking Dog Combination truly lacks enough virtue to anger people to death!
However...
Suddenly, Mo Junchen's face calmed down.
He gained some realization, and his thoughts involuntarily changed.
He understood that Xu Que, Er Gouzi, and the others did this out of concern that he, overwhelmed by shame and rage just now, might turn and attack them; after all, he was at least at the Golden Immortal Realm Peak and possessed the Great Completion Underworld Prison Suppression Body, so if a fight truly broke out, it would definitely be a fierce battle.
Therefore, they unhesitatingly employed these despicable methods, which forced Mo Junchen to admit that although those two humans and one dog used dirty and base tactics, the effect... was actually quite useful!
If he had truly turned against them just now, he might very well have been sinisterly killed by them within minutes!
"Heh, what has come over me? I was nearly tricked to death by them, yet I am making excuses for them instead; this is truly..." Mo Junchen suddenly shook his head with self-mockery; no wonder he deserved to be deceived!
"However... perhaps I was truly mistaken just now; some people with dirty methods may not live long, but those who are dirty to such an extreme extent as them will probably live longer than anyone else! Let it be, let it be; since it is already like this and I have no retreat left, what is there to fuss about..."
Finally, a trace of relieved smile appeared on Mo Junchen's face.
Indistinctly, some of his rigid ideas underwent subtle changes.
Taking out the Jade Slip given by Duan Jiude, Mo Junchen quickly broke the Illusion Killing Array and hurried in the direction of Xu Que and the others.
At the same time, Xu Que and the others, watching everything from afar, wore smiles all over their faces.
"Tsk tsk tsk, little rascal, I truly underestimated you all; such a virtuous and respected kind-hearted old man has begun to be led astray by you!" Liu Jingning looked at Xu Que with deep emotion, shaking her head repeatedly.
"Don't say that; we are also doing this for his own good; otherwise, with a personality like his, he really wouldn't be able to survive in Tianzhou; he would either remain utterly mediocre or be sinisterly killed by others!" Xu Que shook his head lightly, though the smile on his face converged slightly.
As he spoke these words, his heart was ultimately still pondering those words Mo Junchen had just said to him.
Was he truly too flamboyant?
No, this was his Road; he sought nothing else, only a heart at ease and content!
Everyone cultivates the Dao, everyone possesses their own Dao, so if I cultivate Heaven and Earth to follow my heart, if I wish to act as I please, harming no one unless harmed first, is there anything wrong with this Road of mine?
No!
I have simply walked a Road different from others, that is all!
