Li Chunbo and Li Xiangsi heaved a long sigh at the same time. They had nothing to say. They couldn't help but lament in their hearts. Why, why didn't anyone tell us this in the past? If we had followed this advice, the Li Clan wouldn't have been wiped out today. We could have continued to prosper for ten thousand years, many tens of thousands of years.
They valued martial prowess but neglected their roots!
"In the face of life and death, even a coward can transform into a warrior. A warrior will also be afraid of death. A despicable person may not necessarily be unable to face difficulties generously. A righteous person will also seek comfort. No one can clearly describe the change in an instant. It could be sublimation or degeneration … "
At the side, Chu Le 'er said slowly, "Therefore, there's really nothing to sigh about. There's only pride. Because after all, they didn't choose to live an ignoble life and be afraid of death …"
"Among these people, I only respect those who are usually very kind and righteous. Because they are worthy of my respect. But the others …"
Chu Le 'er sneered and said, "Previously, I've also heard you guys talk about how some of these people conduct themselves. Many of them aren't open and aboveboard, nor are they righteous … Ten days before their deaths, they all repented, so it's worth being moved by them. But … what's worth thinking about is, why must they only repent right before their deaths? "
"Why must they only realize their own foolishness and loss when there's no way out at all?"
"How can a mere ten days of repentance make up for a lifetime of harm?"
"What have they done in the past?"
"If that's the case, then can I assume that if they didn't have the pressure of life and death this time, and were faced with certain death, then perhaps these people wouldn't repent for their entire lives, and might not even repent even after death?"
Chu Le 'er's cold voice reverberated in the air. Everyone, including Mo Tian Ji, was stunned.
Yes, Chu Le 'er's words were very heartless and cold. They were even very cold-blooded and pierced the heart.
But they hit the nail on the head and pointed out the crux of the problem.
At a time when people's hearts were most easily softened and moved, Chu Le 'er maintained a high level of clarity. Even though she was an outsider, it was still extremely rare.
Although this clarity, calmness, coldness, and was almost cold-blooded and cruel.
But in this world, there were very few people who could do and think of such cruelty.
Chu Le 'er had a rough childhood and was plagued with illness. Every night was like crossing the door of life and death a hundred times. This also created Chu Le' er's unique personality. What she treasured the most was what she had now!
No matter how good it was, Chu Le 'er wouldn't be tempted by anything that couldn't be in her hands now! They wouldn't take it seriously!
Chu Le 'er said lightly, "There are all kinds of honors after death. It's better to live with a little filial piety."
Mo Tianji said, "Le 'er's words are a little extreme. To be able to repent at the last moment, it's also because she found her conscience."
Chu Le 'er said coldly, "Is that so? I am not used to this kind of behavior of people who only repent when they are on the brink of death. Instead, I feel that it is better for these people to die after they repent. His family didn't feel too bad when he died, because he deserved to die. So, they just sighed a few times and let it go. Unfortunately, he had done evil for a generation, but he repented before he died, leaving his family with eternal sadness. "
"That's why I don't agree!" Chu Le 'er's pretty brows were cold as she said, "If it were me, I'd rather die a worse death than let my family be sad after my death!"
Mo Tianji was greatly surprised at once.
He didn't expect Chu Le 'er to say something like this. Although it was a little extreme, it was definitely reasonable. Moreover, it should be something that an old person who had been through life and death for a long time could say. But how old was Chu Le' er?
Why did she have such thoughts?
Chu Le 'er said, "The dead are gone." She glanced at Mo Tianji.
Mo Tianji was shocked and immediately realized something. He looked deeply at Chu Le 'er and said, "Yes, now is not the appropriate time to sigh. Inform the army to retreat at full speed immediately. "
"Retreat at full speed?" Li Chunbo's tears hadn't dried yet. He looked at Mo Tianji with some astonishment.
Mo Tianji had gathered all the people who were participating in the battle here and assumed a posture of cutting off all means of retreat. Now that they had the upper hand, they should pursue the victory. Why did they have to retreat instead? Or retreat at full speed immediately? What kind of explanation was this?
"Our final battle battlefield can't be here. We'll suffer a big loss here … "Mo Tian Ji insipidly said," Our battlefield should be 500 kilometers behind. That place is surrounded by mountains. The mountain ranges are stacked on top of each other. That's our greatest geographical advantage. "
"Then why did you come here and rush back?"
"The reason why I assumed such a posture is naturally to lure Diwu Qingrou into my trap. If not, with Diwu Qingrou's intelligence, why would he send those 8,000 experts into the formation …" Mo Tianji said indifferently, "Now that 8,000 of them have been turned into ashes … Our greatest goal has been achieved. Of course, we have to retreat and retreat at the fastest speed possible!"
"Just as Xiao Chenyu said, there is no such thing as fairness in this world. Fairness is something that only the strong can have. "
"Diwu Qingrou's side couldn't see through my plan and thus fell into the trap. Then, it is only natural for them to suffer losses."
"Now that the other side is in chaos, if we rush over to fight at this time, even if we can't win …" Li Xiangsi looked at the chaos on the other side and was a little tempted.
"By the time we rush over, we will have fallen into Diwu Qingrou's trap." Mo Tian Ji coldly said, "The other side has indeed lost eight thousand men. But, these eight thousand men are only low-end forces to the other side. The other side's high-end forces haven't been damaged at all. Moreover, they're filled with shame and anger. They're in a state of mourning … Are we going to throw our lives away if we go over? If you are willing, you can go ahead and court death. I will not stop you! "
These words could be said to be extremely rude. Li Xiangsi's face turned red.
"Since that's the case, as the military advisor wishes, retreat, retreat at full speed!"
Li Chunbo made a prompt decision and gave the order at once.
When all the Li Clan members received the order, none of them moved immediately. Instead, they all looked at the deep pit in the ground in unison …
As they stared, it was as if they could see the 8,000 brothers entering the formation without any hesitation and hear that heroic cry, "Brothers of the Li Clan, together we return to the same place!"
Everyone stared deeply. Finally, they turned back decisively and quickly retreated with the army.
On the battlefield, a huge pit was in sight.
After tens of thousands of years, this place had become a natural ice lake. Despite the vicissitudes of life, its appearance remained unchanged. It was known as the 'Return to the Same Lake'!
…
On the opposite side.
In this place where the world was shaking violently, Diwu Qingrou kept looking at the opposite side, anticipating the other party's next move.
Mo Tianji, this is a heaven-sent opportunity for you. As long as you charge over, the results of the battle will definitely be even more glorious. Will you charge over? Can you resist the urge to charge over?
As long as you charge over, I will definitely teach you an unforgettable lesson! I will return the defeat that I just received back to you!
After a long time.
There was no movement from the opposite side.
Diwu Qingrou sighed softly. Looks like this rare defeat will have to stay with me for the time being.
The other party must have already retreated. Obviously, the other party's purpose so far was only to take advantage of him this once. Now that he had taken advantage of him, he would stop while he was ahead. He would definitely not be greedy and advance prematurely.
This was indeed not the battlefield for the final battle! And Mo Tianji was obviously not someone who was greedy for small gains.
A faint sense of admiration rose in Diwu Qingrou's heart. This time, he had indeed been fully schemed against by the other party. But he was completely convinced by the other party's scheme. The other party had actually thought of such a tragic and desperate plan. He had even calculated every detail of a person's heart. The set-up was superb. It was absolutely reasonable that he had lost this round …
"Despicable and shameless! Really too despicable! " Beside him, a middle-grade Supreme Martial Artist spat out the sand and mud in his mouth. He cursed furiously, "How can such a despicable method be considered heroic?"
"They actually exchanged such a small amount of strength for 8,000 of our experts! A total of 8,000 people … were cheated just like that … "Another Supreme Martial Artist also cried out in grief and indignation.
"They said that they would fight the final battle here, but they slipped away like a rabbit … Going back on their words, what kind of strategist are they? They are more like gutless bandits …" Another person's eyes reddened.
At this moment, the allied forces were all agitated.
"Shut up! All of you, shut up! " Diwu Qingrou slowly stood up. At this moment, the tremors on the mountain had gradually subsided. He looked coldly at the Supreme Martial Artists in front of him. "What exactly is the other party despicable and shameless? This is the final battle! This is a place where life and death are at stake! This is the most suitable place for despicable and shameless! What are you unhappy about? What are you barking about?! "
Everyone was instantly speechless.
They had never seen Diwu Qingrou so angry before.
"You are allowed to take advantage of others? Not abide by the rules? Break the rules? But don't allow others to use tricks? What kind of mentality is this! " Diwu Qingrou said heavily, "With such mentality, even if there are another thousand or ten thousand battles, you will still lose! Even if you are lucky enough to win, it will be a dishonorable victory! "
"What do you mean by cheated? We lost 8,000 people, but didn't the other party also lose 8,000 people? How is this cheated? A life for a life! If you die, you can only blame your own incompetence! What do you mean by blaming the enemy? Since they are the enemy, can you blame them? "
"As for the final battle here … Who agreed with you? Do you think that the final battle on the battlefield is a Jianghu duel? Ridiculous! "Diwu Qingrou said angrily," Everyone, get to your positions! What are you shouting for? All of you are impudent! "
"This explosion is just the prelude to the final battle! This is just the beginning! "
During this period of time, Diwu Qingrou's authority had been increasing day by day. The Supreme Martial Artists were all silent out of fear. No one dared to refute him.
Xiao Chenyu sighed and said, "Commander-in-chief Diwu is right. All of you have been too successful these years … Once there is a setback, you become like this … It will be difficult for you to achieve great things!"
However, Xiao Chenyu's words set the tone right away.
They firmly supported Diwu Qingrou.
