< Today's first update! >
The four Venerables had already thought of this in an instant. They were all experienced people; if they didn't think of this, they would be too naive! Thus, they were all speechless! At this moment, they felt that the War for Seizing the Heavens that they had always regarded as their reason and belief was a joke; a joke that was not funny at all!
Jun Moxie had clearly told them one thing: No matter how noble one's goal was, it was not a reason to be despicable and evil! No matter what the reason was, it could not cover up the sins that they had committed!
Behind him, a Superior Supreme expert stepped forward angrily. "Jun Moxie, you're going too far! Our three Holy Lands have been doing this for the sake of the world, for the safety of the continent. What sins are there to speak of? Have you not considered that if we all die, when the War for Seizing the Heavens arrives and the strange races invade? Who will stop them?! Are you going to let the world be slaughtered by the strange races?! "
"The safety of the continent? The lives of the world? "Jun Moxie tilted his head and looked at him." What does it have to do with me? I've never considered it! I only know one thing: if I'm killed by you, even if the entire world is destroyed, I won't be able to feel it! "
"I'm a selfish person; I've always been!" Jun Moxie's eyes flashed with a cold light as he said slowly, "I've always believed that if people don't offend me, I won't offend them; an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth! I don't care if it's for the War for Seizing the Heavens or for the lives of the world; as long as you offend me, you have to die! Either I die, or you die! And I don't want to die!
"My goal is very simple; I just want to survive! I've never offended you on my own accord. But you came to bully and humiliate me! Left with no choice, I could only resist! And now that you're at a disadvantage, you want to talk to me about the War for Seizing the Heavens and the lives of the world? Hahahaha … "
Jun Moxie laughed. "One can be shameless! But you can't be this shameless! "
"Jun Moxie, you bastard!" Behind Mo Xiao Yao, there was a wave of angry curses.
"No need to say more!" Mo Xiao Yao chuckled and raised his hand calmly to stop the chaos. Suddenly, he straightened his back and said, "If I'm going to die, then so be it. What's the point of saying so much?"
"Now that things have come to this, it's useless to say anything more. However, we are all people of this world. Even if we die, we must die with dignity! He would never die a cowardly death! I, Mo Xiao Yao, will not die in the hands of others! " Mo Xiao Yao smiled and grabbed a handful of snow from the ground, carefully wiping it off his face. "Venerable Xiao Yao, even in death, I am free and unfettered."
His demeanor had already returned to his usual calm demeanor.
The Unfettered Venerable wiped his face very carefully, and the blood stains on his face were all wiped clean. In fact, every single movement of his was done in a natural and elegant manner.
Then, he tidied up his messy hair and beard and turned around. When he faced his subordinates, he had already returned to the carefree demeanor of a Venerable Xiao Yao!
Only when he turned around did Jia Qing Yun and the rest realize that there was a flash of humiliation in Mo Xiao Yao's eyes.
Humiliation!
A fourth level Venerable had no choice but to lower his voice and beg for mercy from the enemy, only to be rejected! This was simply unbelievable!
In their minds, with Mo Xiao Yao's status, it was unthinkable that he would lower himself to plead for mercy from two juniors whose strength and status were far below his! It could even be said that it was rare and commendable!
No matter what, he had given a peach and plum, and he would return the favor with a jade! If the other party was willing to let him go, how could Mo Xiao Yao not return the favor? No matter what, the other party should have at least given them some face. They should have even been moved by Mo Xiao Yao's consideration of the big picture, for the people of the world, and let them leave solemnly!
Who would have thought that Jun Moxie would reject him so coldly and heartlessly! This was even more unbelievable!
"Brother Mo, you don't have to worry about this matter! How will today's matter affect your illustrious reputation? Today's matter will even leave your name in history! Only this kind of short-sighted junior who doesn't care about the big picture would ignore your kindness for the world! This old man looks down on such a person from the bottom of his heart! "Jia Qing Yun consoled. Then, he sighed and said, "The pugilistic world today is no longer the pugilistic world we are familiar with. There are fewer and fewer hot-blooded people in this world …"
His words were filled with sorrow, as though the morals of the world were deteriorating with each passing day, and the hearts of the people were no longer what they used to be.
Mo Xiao Yao shook his head slowly, his expression helpless. "Brother Jia, we are all experienced people, why must we lie to ourselves? Today's outcome is the cause of the past! This old man only truly understands today! Venerable Mei has always been fighting for the War for Seizing the Heavens, but when did we let her off even once? She kept the big picture in mind, giving way at every step, but what did we do? We pressed forward at every step! When she took a step back, we took a step forward! Did we consider the big picture? Now that things have come to this, how can we still have the face to accuse the other party of not caring about the big picture? Let me ask you, if the person in question was Jun Moxie instead of Brother Jia, with so many concerns behind you, would you be able to let go of nearly a hundred top-notch experts who have become your mortal enemies? Do you really have the guts to do so? "
Jia Qing Yun froze, his face filled with awkwardness, unable to say anything else.
"Everyone, take care of yourselves! This old man feels that his worldly affairs are over, so I will be taking my leave first! " Mo Xiao Yao looked at the crowd calmly, his back facing Jun Moxie. Without turning back, he said in a clear voice, "From today onwards, be it friend or foe, as long as there are survivors, please help me pass a message when you meet the Lords of the three Holy Lands."
A trace of regret appeared on his face as he said slowly, "Don't use nobility as an excuse, don't find excuses for wrongdoings! I hope that from now on, the three Holy Lands will not bring shame to the once glorious name of the War for Seizing the Heavens! This is the greatest glory of the three Holy Lands in the last ten thousand years! "
He paused and smiled bitterly. "Remember, it is only glory, not qualification!"
With that, a warm smile appeared on Mo Xiao Yao's face as he recited, "Don't say that the clear sky is truly without a path, be free when you can!" This sentence was the origin of his name and that of the Elusive World of Immortals' Palace Master Mo Wu Dao, who was also his own blood brother.
The two of them were originally the children of officials, and when they were born, their father was removed from his position. A friend came to visit and gave their father a poem: When will fame and fortune be over, glory and splendor will be thrown away in an instant; Don't say that the clear sky is truly without a path, be free when you can!
From this poem, their father chose the words "Daoless" and "Carefree" and used them as the names of the two brothers.
Mo Wudao! No matter when, don't run out of paths to walk on.
Mo Xiao Yao! No matter when, don't be too free, don't get carried away!
This was their father's wish for his son, a blessing and a warning!
At this point, other than his father's wish, Mo Xiao Yao could only think of his own brother, Mo Wudao, and not the Lord of Hermitage, Mo Wudao.
With that, Mo Xiao Yao sighed softly, and his body shook. Suddenly, he stood still, motionless! Above his head, a thick white smoke rose, swirling and lingering for a long time. Even the biting cold wind could not move it!
After a long time, the thick white smoke gradually turned into a mist and flew into the sky, finally disappearing without a trace!
Mo Xiao Yao destroyed his own cultivation, severed his own meridians, and died on the peak of the snowy mountain!
A fourth level Venerable had fallen just like that!
Jia Qing Yun stood there in a daze, suddenly feeling that everything in front of him was like a dream, so unreal!
A fourth level Venerable was originally such an unreachable existence, but he was forced to a dead end, committing suicide in front of everyone!
A trace of pity flashed in Jun Moxie's eyes, but his face was still cold and stern, cruel and unmoving!
"Jia Qing Yun, I'll give you a chance too! You can also choose to commit suicide! A chance to have an intact corpse, a chance to die in a dignified manner! "Jun Moxie said expressionlessly, his tone devoid of any emotion.
"Mo Xie … they … cannot die!" Mei Xueyan's face was filled with anxiety. "This is ultimately related to the War for Seizing the Heavens! This is a huge matter that concerns the future of the world! You really have to consider this carefully! Once your strength is reduced, the outcome of the battle could be reversed, and the War for Seizing the Heavens will really be over … "
"Xue Yan, why are you still so insistent? Can't you see the reality in front of you? Didn't you notice the look in these people's eyes? I've already killed no less than four to five hundred people! Those who died were all good friends of theirs; they had lived together for at least a hundred years! This deep relationship that spanned across so many years is even more intimate than that of family! I believe that compared to those strange races, these people are more willing for me to die! As long as I escape this calamity, they will definitely use all means to deal with me and my family! I have no reason to keep these people alive! "
Jun Moxie said indifferently. "If I'm alone, I can naturally not care. But I have family and friends, how can they not care?! Your insistence is equivalent to risking our family and friends. In my heart, the safety of my family is more important than anything else! I will not take the risk, not even a little!
"Even if they are really good people, I will still kill them without hesitation! Because things have already reached this point, there is no more room for negotiation! Furthermore, they are just a bunch of complete hypocrites! "Jun Moxie said indifferently." Even if it is a sin, I will bear it alone! Carrying the sin is better than carrying the guilt! "
"You are really too heartless!" Mei Xueyan looked at him sorrowfully. "Why don't you have the slightest bit of pity? Towards the world, towards the people, don't you have any sense of responsibility? Even a little bit?! "
"Xue Yan, you said that I am heartless? No sense of responsibility? Is it really me who is heartless? If because of a moment of soft-heartedness, in exchange for the death of your family and the slaughter of your friends, how would you feel at that time? If not for the fact that I have so many concerns in my heart, so what if I let you make a mistake once? But can we afford to make a mistake? As for the War for Seizing the Heavens … even if all these people die, it does not mean that the War for Seizing the Heavens will be lost! "
Jun Moxie said coldly. "Even if Butcher Zhang is dead, I, Jun Moxie, will not eat a pig with fur! On the contrary, if the safety of the world is placed in the hands of these hypocrites, even if we win, it will be a humiliation! "
