Chapter 22: Different Concepts (Wishing Everyone a Happy Chinese New Year)



"Ha! You guys are great!"

Liu Hongjie could only think silently in his heart, without saying another word, and continued to lead the team forward.

Because of the previous incident with the demon pill, he thought he was not wrong.

The law of the jungle is the law of survival. Since the monsters cannot defeat the cultivators, the monster pills should be used by me. So what if the inheritance is broken? As long as I have the strength, I can destroy their entire race.

This is the principle of the strong!

But today his idea didn't work. Not only did Chu You buy the demon pill away, but his words were also recognized by the other five people in Qingshan.

They are indeed birds of a feather. They can even agree with such a weird idea.

But this is also the truth of the strong, because they are stronger, so no matter how right he is, he cannot be bigger than the fist of others.

"I never knew Liu Hongjie was such a flexible man!"

Continuing on their journey, Li Bingwen, one of the three people in the dormitory, did not comment on what had just happened. Instead, he looked up to the senior brother from Sangyu College.

"But Brother Chu, is it okay? You and him already have some grudges, and this time you even offended him in person." Wan Shuo is straightforward, but he is not simply innocent. He still knows how to look at the market!

"You've already said that we don't get along, so why should we be afraid of offending each other? After all, too much debt is better than nothing!"

Chu You put it aside. Just as he said, since it has come to this, he is not afraid of offending anyone again. Besides, he cannot cut off someone's inheritance, even if the other person is not human.

But whoever made him feel that way would not sit idly by if he had the ability to do so.

This is Chu You’s principle, and I will not violate it. Otherwise, what’s the point!

"Brother Chu is really free and easy. He does what he thinks. Unlike us, even if we are not used to it at the time, we don't want to interrupt the demon inheritance. But after all, they are alien races. Even if they are native to Earth, they are not as important as humans themselves. I guess at most we will just ignore them."

Li Bingwen was talking about the thoughts of the other five people in Qingshan when they slapped the demon pill away just now.

Although they all agreed with what Chu You did and could empathize with him, the other party was an alien after all, and the effect of the demon pill was indeed very great and somewhat tempting, so they were also a little hesitant.

Naturally, he just watched Liu Hongjie take action.

On one side is the selfishness of the human race, which is against one's will but has its benefits; on the other side is the justice based on the will of the earth, which is idealistic but thankless.

So sometimes, when you are wavering and your own position is not firm enough, then do nothing, ignore everything, just watch and wait for things to develop naturally.

This is what they had just planned.

Unfortunately, Chu You took action in the end, and stood against Liu Hongjie's selfishness of the human race, revealing the deepest desires in everyone's heart.

He is already wavering, and when he criticizes someone like this, even if he doesn't care about the friendship with his fellow disciples, he will still care about his own reputation. He is not a mean person who would act against his will for the sake of a tiny profit.

This is not to say that some people are hypocrites, but at certain times, role models are needed. This is correct guidance and can help people set correct views.

For example, consider an animal's egg, a precious treasure that represents the animal's lifelong hope. But if someone passes by, will they take the egg for themselves, taking the human race's supremacy? Or will they treat it as an equal and allow it to develop naturally?

This is the criterion for everyone to make different choices.

"Who cares? Senior Brother Chu is so powerful, is he really afraid of him? If the demon pill had really been snatched away just now, I, Wan Shuo, would not have agreed to it."

He is a very honest boy and he supports his roommates very much.

"Come on, I won't expose your shortcomings. I don't know who was hesitating just now, but it was Senior Brother Chu who took action, and that's when they finally made up their minds."

"..." He hesitated suddenly:

"You're still talking about me. Isn't Senior Brother Li the same?"

"Forehead……"

As expected, he is very straightforward and also exposes the other party's shortcomings.

In fact, what he said was also the behavior of the other three people in Qingshan, so they walked in front and hurried on silently. There were also such disciples in Sangyu Academy.

Between selfish interests and fair poverty, Chu You's fairness temporarily prevailed. Although he ended up empty-handed, he felt at ease, except for the guide, of course.

"Hmph! A bunch of idiots. If the Earth is taken over by naive people like you, that would be the end of it."

People with different ideas cannot work together. This is Liu Hongjie.

But they have to go together because this is a mission, a mission of Sangyu College. They have to find out the purpose of Qingshan and his group, and then return to the college to report.

So even if he grumbled, he could only grumble in the end.

"roar!"

There was another roar, and it was full of energy, unlike the old poisonous sting dragon just now.

Roar…roar…roar…

Several consecutive sounds shook the wilderness. The fog did not change and was still thick and unclear, but the ground was shaking, and even the bones in the cemetery were shaken off.

But it wasn't the sound, it was something, or a group of heavy objects, hitting the ground.

"The demon pill has been discovered, and a group of poisonous sting dragons are fighting for it."

Liu Hongjie looked at Chu You deeply, without saying anything extra, but everyone understood what he wanted to say:

Look! It's all your fault. You gave away such a good thing, and now you've caused a lot of trouble!

How can we go on like this?

He, who was originally leading the way, hesitated for a moment, both because he was dissatisfied with Chu You and because there was really no way to go.

They had already walked the way they came, but the road ahead was blocked by a group of looting sting dragons.

"Is there no other known route?"

Zuo Kun asked politely with a fist clasped. As expected of a descendant of a wealthy family, he was well-educated. Even when facing disciples of lower realms or from other remote academies, he did not show any contempt.

Although he didn't know if he had the same thoughts in his heart, Liu Hongjie, who was doing a good job on the surface and had a mission to accomplish, also returned the greeting. After flipping through the booklet for a moment, he frowned and said:

“It’s not that there isn’t a way, but that route is more dangerous than the original outer route. It requires going deeper into the inner circle of Dead Leaf Island. There’s a chance of encountering a monster in the Yuanshen realm. Although it’s uncertain, it’s much more dangerous than a group of poisonous sting dragons.

"I wonder where the brothers are going to on Dead Leaf Island, or are they just wandering around aimlessly?"

It seemed like a well-intentioned suggestion, offering advice on the options, and what he said was true, but then he added a bit of his own selfish motives and asked about the purpose of several people...

Chu You was lucky enough to intercept the monster just in time!

Unfortunately, Zuo Kun didn’t know this, and even the captain Xin Qiang didn’t know it. Maybe he was just wandering around aimlessly.

But as a true elite of the academy, he still knew the general direction, which was Chu You.

Whether it was his close relationship with Master Li Feng, or his relationship with Senior Sister Song, but he went on a mission, these few points combined were enough to show that he was no ordinary person.

So whether to move forward with a purpose or wander around aimlessly in the end depends entirely on Chu You's decision.

"Go to the inner circle!"

Without waiting for others to look, Chu You had already decided on the direction.

It was not to avoid the trouble he had caused, but because Xiaobai had a slight sense, so he bypassed the outer circle and headed straight for the inner circle, but it seemed that it was not the center of Dead Leaf Island!
