It was a simple answer, but Xu Mu had delayed it for more than three hours. Xiao Bing was sure that Xu Mu was really afraid. Even if he was a sage, he must be afraid.
After all, Xu Mu was not alone. He had a family. The Xu Family was known as the first family in Huaxia. Xu Mu was the pillar of Huaxia. If his son won, the Xu Family might be able to go further. Xiao Bing even suspected that Master Xu's real purpose was not only to help the No. 3 Chief, but to seize power for himself in the future. He wanted to steal the highest power!
But if the Xu Family lost, they would be doomed eternally!
Xiao Bing saw through Xu Mu's thoughts. His eyes became more and more terrifying. Xiao Bing only took a glance at him, but he felt that he was really going to be burned by a ball of fire.
A sage was too terrifying. Just a glance was enough to make a person lose his mind. Xiao Bing even felt that if he used his best mental attack on Xu Mu, it would be a waste of effort. He might even be counterattacked.
In front of Xu Mu, the best way was to do nothing. Because in front of this kind of person, everything was in vain.
Xu Mu said calmly, "Okay, I will tell you the answer."
The heat in Xu Mu's eyes gradually disappeared. The flames were restrained and he became calm again. However, Xiao Bing still could not see through his eyes. People at this level seemed to have transcended the existence of human beings. No one could see through their hearts.
Xu Mu said slowly, "For me, Huaxia is the first, the family is the second, and Jian An is the third."
Xiao Bing asked, "Your son is Xu Jianan?"
Xu Mu was even more surprised than Xiao Bing. He asked, "You don't even know my son's name? My eldest son is Xu Jianan, and my second son is Xu Jianxin. But my second son usually does things according to the rules. Now I have ordered him to practice martial arts in seclusion. He won't come out for a while. And my original name is Xu Zipao. I just changed my name to Xu Mu in recent years. "
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Then I will call you Senior Xu Mu. I heard the answer I wanted to hear."
"No, you didn't hear anything, and you don't understand anything." Xu Mu said calmly, "For me, what I care about is this country, this government, and this people. They represent Huaxia. As for the politics between them, I don't care about who wins or loses. "
Xiao Bing was puzzled by Xu Mu's words, especially when Xu Mu said that Huaxia came first, the family second, and Jian An and Jian Xin third. Xiao Bing could not understand this sentence. If it did not matter to Xu Mu who won or lost the political struggle, he could choose his son's side, which was not good news for Huaxia.
Of course, there might be another meaning. He meant that the country was more important than his family, even more important than his son. So he would not stand on his son's side.
Xiao Bing said with a serious face, "Senior Xu Mu, your family has been the guardian of Cathaysian State for generations. Although ordinary people may not know of your existence, the country will remember you. Most importantly, you will also remember that the prosperity of Cathaysian State is due to your contributions. Huaxia has been able to get to where it is today because of your help and support. I hope that no one would want to see their most cherished treasure get hurt, right? "
Is that right? "Xu Mu looked at Xiao Bing and said.
Xiao Bing said, "So, I think you should really think about it carefully. Your son has gone down the wrong path. You should stop him in time."
Xu Mu asked, "Do you think I can still stop him? What's done can't be undone. No matter what you do, it's too late. I only have two choices now. One is to kill my family, and the other is to help my son achieve great things. If it were you, what would you choose? "
Xiao Bing asked, "What would you choose?"
Xu Mu said, "If Jianan made the right bet, the Xu family will have a share in the world. We will no longer be the nameless hero behind the scenes. We will become one of the rulers of Huaxia. If you were me, what would you choose?"
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "I'm not you. Fortunately, I'm not you."
Xiao Bing stood up slowly, and there was disappointment in his eyes. He said firmly, "It's because I'm not you that I can stand so straight. I can always be a man with my back straight. I'm a Huaxia man, and I'm a warrior like you. How can you not understand what I know? Coups in any era will be accompanied by a storm of blood. It will shake the foundation of the country and make the political situation of the country unstable. You only have your family in your eyes. Country comes first, and then family. Ordinary people understand this. It's ridiculous that the higher one stands, the more they can't see through it. "
Xu Mu said in a deep voice, "Are you reprimanding me?"
"Shouldn't I? Although your strength is that of a Sage, the so-called Sage is only powerful. You don't have the heart of a Sage. "
Xu Mu asked in a deep voice, "What is the heart of a Sage?"
"Back then, when foreign enemies invaded, the Tianshan Elder entered the human realm for the sake of Huaxia. She did not hesitate to fight against the enemies with her life."
Xu Mu said lightly, "But in the end, the imperial court was incompetent and incompetent. They framed the loyal people. The Tianshan Elder was so exhausted that she no longer cared about the affairs of the world."
"Even so, what the Tianshan Elder did back then was admirable. Even after so many years, she is still a person respected by the martial artists. What about you, senior? Although you are known as the guardian of Huaxia, you have lost your true righteousness at a critical moment. How will history judge you in the future? How will you face the four words of the Divine Pillar of Huaxia? How will you live up to the name of a Sage? "
Xu Mu's eyes seemed to shoot out a ball of fire. Xiao Bing suddenly had an illusion. There were flames under his feet and in all directions. At this moment, Xiao Bing felt like he had fallen into a sea of fire. Xiao Bing could even clearly see his feet starting to burn and then quickly disappearing into ashes. The flames were still burning up rapidly. This scene was hair-raising.
Xiao Bing heard a voice coming from the sky. This voice was majestic and domineering. It sounded like an emperor talking to an ant. "Now you are going to disappear from this world. Your body is going to be burned into ashes bit by bit. You are going to disappear completely from this world. Can you still stand with your back straight?"
If it was anyone else, they would have died from the shock at this moment. Even Xiao Bing felt like his heart was about to jump out of his mouth.
But Xiao Bing shouted at the sky, "Xu Mu, you can kill me, but you can't break my waist!"
The flames were still burning on Xiao Bing's body. The pain was a hundred times more painful than when he was on the volcano. Xiao Bing's face was twisted and blue veins were almost popping out of his body. But he still did not compromise. He looked up at the sky and roared crazily. The voice in the sky shouted, "Beg for mercy and admit your mistake. I can spare you. I am the master here. I can destroy you and bring you back to life!"
"Ah ah ah! You are the master? What is a master? A truly great person can be respected by others. The Xu Family wants to steal the power of the country. I only fear those who are morally superior to me. What makes you worthy of my fear? What makes you worthy of my respect? What makes you worthy of me begging for mercy? "
"Aren't you afraid of death?" The voice in the sky seemed to be angry.
Xiao Bing laughed wildly. His body was twitching. Everything below his waist had been burned to ashes, but he kept laughing. No pain could make him bow down. Even destruction could not make him surrender to evil.
All of a sudden, the flames all dissipated. Xiao Bing was sweating all over. He plopped down on the stool and gasped for breath. His hair looked as if it had been washed by water, and his face was covered with beads of sweat.
He raised his head to look at the calm Xu Mu and asked, "Why did you free me from the illusion technique? It seems that you could have killed me just now. There was no need to save me, right? "
Xu Mu said calmly, "The illusion didn't work on you. In fact, I didn't save you. You broke free from the illusion yourself."
Then his eyes turned cold and he said coldly, "Go. Leave this place."
Xiao Bing asked, "You won't kill me?"
"I won't kill you because you've already broken through my illusion. I don't want to deal with an Empyrean like you a second time," Luo Yunyang said coldly.
"Okay!" Xiao Bing stood up. As long as one could live, no one would be willing to die. He walked out of the courtyard step by step. When he stepped out, Xiao Bing looked back at Xu Mu in the courtyard. Xu Mu was still so unfathomable. He could not see through Xu Mu's strength, nor could he see through Xu Mu's thoughts. This man … Was this the power of a sage?
Thinking of the scene just now, Xiao Bing still felt shocked. Xiao Bing had only experienced such a realistic illusion from one person, and that was Mr. Buddha. He didn't expect that someone could make him fall into such an illusion.
Xiao Bing calmed down and asked, "Xu Mu, you may regret not killing me. Because sooner or later, none of you will be able to kill me. "
Xu Mu chuckled and said, "What a confident young man. Well, I will wait for that day. I just hope that day will not come too late."
"Also, what I said in the illusion was true. It was all from my heart. No matter how strong you are, even if you can kill me with a glance, I only admire true heroes who serve the country and the people! "
"Heroes have nothing to do with strength!"
After saying that, Xiao Bing dragged his tired feet and walked down the mountain step by step.
