"Friends, please allow me to not address everyone as dao friend, because I can feel everyone's hot blood and surging emotions. That's not for me, Mo Wuji, but for a rogue cultivator who fought against the alien invaders for the Lost Continent. It's a form of respect and love for a hot-blooded person who fought for our land.
In the fight against the invasion of the outer realms, there are many nameless rogue cultivators like me. In order to defend against the invaders, they shed their hot blood on the land we live in. I'm just one of the countless people among them. They didn't have glory, they didn't have any compensation, they were even like me, they only had a rogue cultivator number … "
As Mo Wuji got to this point, he bowed, "This bow is dedicated to those cultivators who spilled their blood for our land. Whether they are sect disciples, rogue cultivators, or mortals, they are all existences that we respect."
When Mo Wuji was on Earth, he had given countless speeches. His grasp of the audience's emotions was much better than those high and mighty sect heads. In terms of cultivation, he couldn't compare to Great Evolution Sect's Jiang Xiushan. In terms of speech and motivating people, Jiang Xiushan couldn't compare to Mo Wuji. In other words, a high and mighty person like Jiang Xiushan couldn't be bothered to use such methods to resonate with ordinary cultivators.
Countless cultivators on the plaza bowed together with Mo Wuji. Then, a huge round of applause resounded throughout the entire plaza. Even though Mo Wuji didn't take out his Rogue Cultivator 2705 contribution points token, no one doubted him. Initially, everyone knew that Mo Wuji would definitely take out his contribution points token. Now, no one needed Mo Wuji to take out his contribution points token to confirm that he was Rogue Cultivator 2705.
Mo Wuji spoke out the thoughts of all the small cultivators. In the Lost Continent, high and mighty cultivators were in the minority. Most of the cultivators were unknown, just like Rogue Cultivator 2705. It was precisely because of this that Rogue Cultivator 2705's name was so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, resounding throughout the entire Lost Continent. Because he was the most immersive, most down to earth.
No matter how unwilling they were, Jiang Xiushan and co. could only bow along with Mo Wuji to show their respect for the person who sacrificed his life for the Lost Continent.
Mo Wuji continued, "Here, I have to thank the Hundred Sect Alliance. Without the Hundred Sect Alliance, our Lost Continent would be like a plate of loose sand. No matter what kind of battle it was, a pile of loose sand would never be able to fight. But after thanking me, I still have to ask, what is the purpose of us establishing the Hundred Sect Alliance? It is to protect the land where we live and the people who live on this land. We've chased away the alien invaders, but the Hundred Sect Alliance's work has just begun. We can't just sit there and wait for medals. "
Even though Jiang Xiushan knew that Mo Wuji's next words were detrimental to the Great Evolution Sect, Jiang Xiushan could not step forward to stop him. Since Mo Wuji was leaving the Heaven Seeking Palace, Feng Zhenqiu would not stop him. As for the other sects, unless they had nothing better to do, they wouldn't stop Mo Wuji from continuing his speech.
"At this moment, I am not saying these words as the Tian Ji Sect's sect head, but as an ordinary rogue cultivator. I would like to ask the Hundred Sect Alliance, at such a crucial time in the alien war, where did the Hundred Sect Alliance go when a sect head who was defending against the alien cultivators was killed outside their encampment? On top of that, this sect was exterminated for no reason, so where did the Hundred Sect Alliance go?
I would like to ask the Hundred Sect Alliance, how did the Hundred Sect Alliance treat the meritorious members of a clan that transplanted spiritual roots and harmed countless of our Lost Continent's geniuses? I would also like to ask the Hundred Sect Alliance, how did the Hundred Sect Alliance treat those who died defending against the alien cultivators? "
The entire plaza was silent. Mo Wuji took in a deep breath and raised his voice, "I can now tell everyone that the Tian Ji Sect's sect head was killed by the Yu Lin Lei Clan's experts outside Yan City while he was defending against the alien cultivators. The reason was because the Tian Ji Sect might have a treasure, and the Hundred Sect Alliance didn't even ask about it. The Tian Ji Sect was then exterminated by the Yu Lin Lei Clan, and the Hundred Sect Alliance didn't seem to notice. I am speaking for the Tian Ji Sect, not because I am the Tian Ji Sect's sect head, but because I didn't even know the Tian Ji Sect's sect head, Du Shiqing.
A Xuan sect's sect head, to the Hundred Sect Alliance, was merely a living soldier who could defend against a few alien invaders. Before Sect Head Du died, he did not choose to believe the Hundred Sect Alliance, but chose to believe me, a rogue cultivator, and asked me to uphold justice for the Tian Ji Sect. Or perhaps he knew that telling the Hundred Sect Alliance about this matter would not yield any results. I am merely a rogue cultivator, but I, Mo Wuji, have my own principles. I will definitely not let the people of the Lost Continent continue to shed tears for this piece of land.
If the road is uneven, someone will clear it. If others don't, then I, Mo Wuji, will. If the Hundred Sect Alliance isn't willing to do it, then I, Mo Wuji, will do it. So I rebuilt the Tian Ji Sect, assumed the position of Tian Ji Sect's sect head, and exterminated the selfish Yu Lin Lei Clan … "
Another round of enthusiastic cheers and applause drowned Mo Wuji's words. Mo Wuji waited for the applause to die down before continuing, "Now, let me tell everyone my second question. I exposed the Supreme Sword City's Dong Clan, and the reward I received was to be expelled from the Hundred Sect Alliance Conference. If not for my identity as Rogue Cultivator 2705, if not for everyone's support, I wouldn't have the chance to say these words today, and would have been chased out of the altar long ago. "
Jiang Xiushan clenched his fists tightly, and his heart was filled with hatred. At this point, Mo Wuji had already matured, and he couldn't do anything to him. Even if he left the conference, Mo Wuji had Xing Huang by his side, and he couldn't do anything to him. Even a True God like him couldn't do anything to Mo Wuji, so who else could? If he dared to act against Mo Wuji now, then the Great Evolution Sect might become the next Supreme Sword City's Dong Clan.
"We need Da Shixiong to be the Hundred Sect Alliance Head …"
"We need Rogue Cultivator 2705 to take over the Hundred Sect Alliance!"
…
Regardless of one's identity, there was no lack of hot-blooded people, including cultivators. Mo Wuji's words resonated with many people, and many topics that no one had thought of before were dug out by Mo Wuji. These words infuriated the people who heard it.
Mo Wuji waved his hand, "Let me continue to tell everyone my third question. The corpses of those cultivators who died defending our land against the alien invasion are scattered all over the place. Even though I'm ranked first in terms of contribution points, I believe that after I die, I will be like those fallen heroes. My corpse will be scattered all over the wilderness, and I will have to endure the lonely cold winds day and night …
Yes, I'm bitterly disappointed. I only hope that those in charge of the Hundred Sect Alliance can collect the corpses of those cultivators who shed their blood for our Lost Continent, and bury them on the battlefield of the Lost Continent, and erect a tall monument for them. Let all the cultivators of our Lost Continent remember them, respect them, and use them as role models. When the alien cultivators invade again, there will be even more comrades who shed their blood to protect our land. That's all I have to say for today. Thank you, my friends! "
The entire plaza was silent. If no one mentioned it, it would be natural for cultivators to die in battle. At most, it would be the senior and junior brothers who brought the corpses of those they knew. No one would feel that it was inappropriate, be it the cultivators or the sects.
Now that Mo Wuji had said all these words, the people who were listening finally understood how lonely those cultivators who died for the Lost Continent were. To them, it was extremely unfair.
Even Jiang Xiushan, who had always been unhappy with Mo Wuji, had to admit that Mo Wuji was right. He was unhappy with Mo Wuji, but it did not mean that he was against everything that Mo Wuji said. To defend against the alien cultivators, he, Jiang Xiushan, was also prepared to sacrifice his life.
After a long while, the plaza erupted into an uproar. Without exception, everyone wanted Mo Wuji to be the Hundred Sect Alliance's Alliance Head.
Jiang Xiushan could not possibly come out, and Feng Zhenqiu knew that he had no choice but to come out. He walked to where Mo Wuji was standing, and said loudly, "Everyone, please be quiet."
Feng Zhenqiu was a True God Stage expert. Even without the sound amplification array, his soft voice was enough to silence all the cultivators on the plaza.
Indeed, after Feng Zhenqiu's voice, all the cultivators on the plaza quietened down.
Feng Zhenqiu then said in a clear voice, "Sect Head Mo was once a disciple of my Heaven Seeking Palace. I will not speak against my conscience just because of this. Just now, I agree with Sect Head Mo's words. Our Lost Continent's cultivation culture has always been lagging behind. Once alien cultivators invade, we need to unite even more.
So on behalf of the Hundred Sect Alliance, I have decided to erect a cultivator memorial outside Yan City. We will carve the names of every fallen cultivator on it. Even if they don't have a name, we will use the rogue cultivator's name to remember them. "
Enthusiastic cheers sounded, and everyone was extremely supportive of Feng Zhenqiu's words.
After the cheers died down, Feng Zhenqiu continued, "I agree with everyone's suggestion on the second matter. However, to let Sect Head Mo enter the Hundred Sect Alliance, it is not up to me alone. This requires the votes of all the sects."
With that, Feng Zhenqiu turned to the various sect heads seated on the round altar and said, "Everyone, I believe that everyone has seen Sect Head Mo's words and the reactions of all the cultivators in the Five Elements Desolate City. I wonder if everyone has any opinions on Sect Head Mo becoming the Hundred Sect Alliance Head? How about this, those who agree with Sect Head Mo becoming the Hundred Sect Alliance Head, please stand up. Those who disagree, don't need to stand up. "
Following Feng Zhenqiu's words, the gazes of everyone on the Five Elements Desolate Domain Plaza landed on the various sect heads.
There was no such thing as democracy here. Even if everyone on the Five Elements Desolate Domain Plaza wanted Mo Wuji to become the Hundred Sect Alliance Head, they still needed the various sects to stand up and express their opinions.
"My Formless Blade Sect agrees." The first person to stand up was actually the Formless Blade Sect's Sect Head, Gu Ran.
"My Heavenly Drug Sect agrees." The next person to stand up exceeded everyone's expectations. It was the Heavenly Drug Sect's Sect Head, Qin Fuyu, who had previously refuted Mo Wuji.
"My Hundred Net Sect agrees!"
"My Immortal Retaining Castle agrees!"
