Xia Ji was not worried about the lives of the cultivators of Yuluo Nation. She nodded silently after hearing the Green Lotus Leader's words.
"Ji 'er, I don't want to see this attitude of yours. Did you become too soft-hearted during the trip to the Yan Luo Region? Don't forget that you are from the Forsaken Land of Gods. Don't be fooled by the hypocrisy of the Yan Luo Region. In the Forsaken Land of Gods, if you are not ruthless, your position will not be stable! This is the eternal truth, the only rule of survival in the Forsaken Land of Gods! "
The Green Lotus Leader's tone was a little harsh. She naturally understood her disciple. She was a young girl who was inexperienced and did not have a thorough understanding of the cruel rules of the martial world.
Sometimes, it was inevitable that she would have some naive compassion.
In the Green Lotus Leader's opinion, such compassion must be put to an end.
Once a cultivator was inexplicably moved by such compassion, it would be very dangerous.
Back in the Forsaken Land of Gods, when the Green Lotus Leader dealt with the geniuses of the Yan Luo Region's seven nations, Xia Ji was the leader of that operation. Although her performance was not perfect, the Green Lotus Leader was still quite satisfied.
At least at that time, Xia Ji did not make any mistakes in principle, nor did she have these inexplicable emotions.
Under the stern rebuke of the Green Lotus Leader, Xia Ji was like a child who had made a mistake. She pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "Leader, I understand."
The Green Lotus Leader said coldly, "Ji 'er, I hope that my feeling is wrong. Ever since we arrived at the Yan Luo Region, I have always felt that there is something wrong with your emotions. Where is the arrogant and domineering you? Where is the resolute you? "
"Leader, I know my mistake." Xia Ji lowered her head and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito.
"Hmph! Don't forget that you are the Holy Lady of the Green Lotus Leader, the martial genius that everyone in the Forsaken Land of Gods looks up to. If you are as sentimental as those ordinary people, your opponents will devour you and tear you into pieces at any time. Do you understand? "
The Sect Leader of the Green Lotus Sect had always taught Xia Ji gently.
In the past, Xia Ji was obedient and had a high level of comprehension. There was no need for her to be too strict. Xia Ji would understand many things with a little guidance.
This time, the Green Lotus Leader's stern words were also a rare outburst.
"Take advantage of the fact that the secret realm hasn't opened yet. Go and comprehend it yourself. Don't think that we have nothing to worry about just because we control Yuluo Country. Ji 'er, the situation in both the Forsaken Land of the Gods and the Yan Luo Region is far more complicated than we thought. One wrong step and you might fall into a bottomless abyss and be crushed to pieces. "
There was no doubt that the Sect Leader of the Green Lotus Sect doted on and valued Xia Ji.
These sincere words of advice were indeed for Xia Ji's sake.
"Disciple understands. Disciple will definitely comprehend it seriously. If there are any mistakes, I will correct them. If there aren't, I will work harder." Xia Ji said respectfully.
After returning to her residence, Xia Ji leaned against the window, her thoughts in a mess.
Indeed, after the battle between the geniuses of the Yan Luo Region and the seven nations in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, Xia Ji's dao heart had indeed undergone a slight change, a slight crack.
She, who was originally very confident in her own way of doing things, did indeed have a trace of doubt and self-reflection.
Was the principle of killing by hook or by crook really the truth?
If this was the truth, then why hadn't that kid from the Black Luo Academy tried to kill her time and time again?
The first time, he clearly had the opportunity to kill her. Why hadn't he chosen to do so?
The second time, in the Palace of Gloom, Qin Yi clearly had the opportunity to sit and watch her fight to the death with Ying Yusha and Gu Feiyang. Why had he instructed her to drink the cup of Gloom Tea that could save her life?
The third time, after Ying Yusha and Gu Feiyang had died, he clearly had the upper hand in the Palace of Gloom. If he had wanted to kill her, his chances of success would have been more than ninety percent. Why hadn't he tried to kill her and let her leave safely? Why had he even given her three Phoenix Perch Wood Spirit Fruits?
At first, Xia Ji didn't think too deeply about these things. But as she continued to grow and saw more and more unscrupulous means, she slowly began to feel touched.
When she stepped into the Jade Luo Nation this time, the originally peaceful and tranquil Jade Luo Nation was immediately thrown into chaos because of the appearance of the Green Lotus Sect. Many innocent people lost their lives in a single night. Even many people who stood aloof from worldly affairs were inexplicably annihilated.
If it had been the old Xia Ji, she would have thought that the weak were prey to the strong.
Even now, she was constantly trying to convince herself that this was reality and the law of survival in the world of martial dao.
But the more she tried to convince herself, the more she couldn't.
At the end of the day, the "human" part of her heart had finally been awakened. Once this kind of thing was awakened, it was extremely difficult to completely destroy it.
This was also why she was so angry about Ji Gengxie's indiscriminate slaughter of the innocent.
In fact, she also knew that if the cultivators of the Yan Luo Region faced the people of the Forsaken Land of the Gods, they would definitely kill every last one of them.
After all, an exception like Qin Yi was an exception.
However, her Dao Heart was stirred up by Qin Yi, who was a stone thrown in by him, causing ripples.
In fact, unbeknownst to the Sect Leader, Xia Ji had secretly gone to the Azure Luo Nation and sent a letter to Qin Yi, warning him to stay away from the limelight.
But Xia Ji was also very clear that for a person like Qin Yi, her letter could only reassure herself. Qin Yi definitely wouldn't stay away from the limelight.
Back at the entrance of the palace in the secret realm, when Qin Yi had been surrounded, he hadn't yielded in the slightest.
This kind of person would never bow to power.
Thinking of this, Xia Ji let out a soft sigh. She felt that she had done everything she could and that she had repaid the favor to Qin Yi.
However, why couldn't she feel at ease in her heart? Why couldn't she let go of her worries?
… …
Three days later, Qin Yi's painstaking wait outside the manor finally paid off. Mo Fou, Ji Gengxie, and the other young geniuses from the Forsaken Land of the Gods had actually left the manor with their troops.
With such a large force, Qin Yi didn't even need to follow too closely or worry about losing track of them.
After following for a while, Qin Yi suddenly discovered that the Azure Lotus Society had also sent people. Holy Maiden Xia Ji had also appeared on the road with a group of people.
Apart from them, there were also some young cultivators from Jade Luo Academy and Jade Luo Nation.
It seemed that their force wasn't small at all.
This undoubtedly made things more convenient for Qin Yi. It was easy for him to mingle with the wandering cultivators.
Jade Luo Nation's territory was also relatively large.
It wasn't until nightfall that they arrived in the wilderness. At the end of the wilderness, there were indistinct shadows. There seemed to be traces of buildings.
Qin Yi's powerful eyesight allowed him to see clearly in the dark. There were indeed buildings at the end of the wilderness.
"Is this the so-called secret realm? This place doesn't seem hidden. Why hasn't the secret realm been excavated? "
