393 Please, Lord He, send me to my death, Part Two
Then, in a low voice, she whispered, "The Holy Emperor's righteousness is boundless. He is willing to brave danger and venture alone to the edge of the extreme sea to protect all living beings. Truly, this is a blessing for the world."
Yao Aolong echoed passionately, "Yes, the world is so peaceful. The only chance for the people to survive is thanks to us, who have traveled far and wide year after year searching for capable and righteous men to stop them. Lord He is a man of great principle and will surely not be so resolute."
Wang Guyun's voice was also filled with fervor, "Yes, Lord He, Young Master He, judging from your actions, it is clear that you are kind-hearted and care about the people. The future of the people depends on Young Master He."
We urge Young Master He to understand the greater good and help the Holy Emperor and other like-minded individuals to resist the evil forces.
We also remember Young Master He's noble principles, and our praise of him is also to find more capable people to help us resist the evil forces.
He Chen was completely bewildered, and chuckled softly, "You are all powerful figures yourselves, why not join the Holy Emperor in resisting the demons?"
When the two men saw that He Chen had finally started to talk, they exchanged a knowing smile, as if they had been asked this question many times before.
Wang Guyun spoke offhand, explaining carefully, "Lord He, you may not know this, but in this land of commoners, the spiritual energy is abundant, and the human race holds a geographical advantage."
The demons are no match for us. We must harness spiritual energy to transform our attacks into attacks of dubious nature, thus stopping the demons from harming the people and securing a chance for survival for our human race.
Yao Aolong echoed, "Lord He, the demonic area over there is different. The spiritual energy is chaotic and the demonic energy is dense. If our true energy is exhausted, it will be difficult to replenish. We can only rely on our powerful physical bodies."
Moreover, the demonic realm is filled with many strange and powerful demons and monsters, requiring adults like adults to undergo rigorous physical training.
Only those at the Martial Emperor level or higher, with their bodies tempered and strengthened, can fight for extended periods in the demonic realm; otherwise, ordinary martial artists will be of no use whatsoever.
Listen to this explanation; it makes sense. He remained silent and said, "Have those great immortal sects ever suppressed us? I've heard that they have many methods; one move can split mountains and rivers."
With a single move, thunder roared, and everything within a radius of tens of millions of miles was under its control. Fire rose from the earth, lightning fell from the sky, and wind even came to assist. If the major sects joined forces, they could surely wipe out the evil forces.
That way, you won't have to travel so constantly.
As the conversation progressed, he became enthusiastic and felt very pleased with himself for coming up with such a brilliant idea.
After listening quietly, Wang Guyun exclaimed, "Young Master He is truly a man of great talent. We have also considered such ideas, but the major sects of cultivation have a profound foundation and a long history."
However, his methods of defending against enemies were not as formidable as Emperor Wu's, and his physical strength was also inferior to Emperor Wu's.
Once you enter the demonic territory, your spiritual energy will be depleted and difficult to replenish, leading to a faster death. It would be nothing more than a pointless attempt to die.
Yao Aolong hurriedly added, "Yes, Lord He, aside from having longer lifespans, cultivators are actually inferior to those who practice physical cultivation in demonic areas. Please, for the sake of the common people and future generations, do not refuse."
He Chen nodded.
The two were overjoyed, thinking to themselves, 'As expected, that young punk is easy to fool.'
He Chen looked at the two of them, a hint of doubt in his eyes, and softly asked, "How old is Lord Yao?"
Yao Aolong couldn't hide a hint of smugness. "My talent is limited, and I'm almost two hundred years old. I'm getting old. I won't live many more years."
He nodded slightly, envious, then turned his gaze to Wang and said, "Lord Yao is truly blessed. I wonder how old Lord Wang is?"
Lord Wang was also beaming with pride, a smug look in his eyes. He couldn't help but smile with self-satisfaction, and unconsciously puffed out his chest, saying, "More than two hundred."
He nodded slightly. "It seems that the two of you have a good chance of living to a ripe old age and will be able to enjoy this great event in the human world."
I've heard of a country where someone refines elixirs in pursuit of immortality; I wonder if it's true.
"Since you are the Salvation Society, why don't you two care about the suffering of humanity?"
Wang Guyun's eyes held a hint of indifference. 'We are but insignificant ants. We have sacrificed so much for the sake of all living beings. It is only right that the living sacrifice a little for the greater good.'
Yao Aolong hurriedly added, "Lord He, we have also carefully investigated your statement. It was nothing more than the cult of evil causing trouble and sacrificing some villagers of Qi Kingdom."
The King of Qi was kind-hearted and his rule was incorruptible. Any family that dared to embezzle, accept bribes, or oppress the people was severely punished. These families, harboring resentment, spread rumors and slander against the King of Qi.
He Chen finally understood, nodding in satisfaction, "So that's how it is. I was almost deceived by these rumors. Thank you both for clearing my mind."
Yao Aolong was also quite satisfied, thinking to himself, 'Young man, we've seen more of life than you have. When it comes to tactics, you're no match for us. The more questions you ask, the more we'll have to go out of politeness.'
Once you're inside, you won't be able to come back.
He pondered for a moment and asked in a low voice, "There are many powerful families and elders in this royal city, and many hidden experts. Why haven't I heard of any of them going there?"
Wang Guyun patiently explained, "The elders of the aristocratic families are also lacking in strength, and these elders are needed to guard various regions against sabotage by evil cultists and demonic beasts."
With a slight smile, he asked again softly, "Why don't you two train more people skilled in external martial arts? That way, many like-minded individuals will join forces to resist the demons. Our human race's chances of victory will greatly increase."
Yao Aolong showed no impatience and said softly, "We have also considered Lord He's idea, but those who practice external martial arts need immense courage and talent."
Ordinary people, no matter how much they expend, will find it difficult to achieve great success in cultivation, and it requires a large amount of medicinal herbs and money. Even with intensive training, we cannot afford the costs.
Wang Guyun nodded, saying, "Yes, with ordinary talent, cultivating external strength is just a waste of money; it doesn't have much effect."
Upon hearing the reason why the two were the majority, He Chen immediately understood. It seemed that he had no choice but to go. This matter of the common people was truly something else. Why shouldn't you go? You've lived for over two hundred years, isn't that enough?
Looking at the two people before him, he smiled gently, a radiant smile like the warmth of spring sunshine. "I wonder, within your organization, who possesses the highest cultivation level, and what that level is?"
Wang Guyun and Yao Aolong both looked at him with reverence. Yao Aolong said softly, "Naturally, it's our sect leader. His cultivation is unfathomable. He's not much inferior to a Holy Emperor."
Wang Guyun nodded slightly in admiration, "The Master's strength is unfathomable; he has devoted countless efforts and wisdom to our pursuit of immortality."
He thought to himself, 'Under the leader's ideology, we can potentially achieve immortality, while you troublemakers should be deceived into death; that's the right path.'
