“Reinforcements? What reinforcements?” Jun Mo Xie chuckled coldly. “Who is whose reinforcement? Mo Wu Dao, Lord Mo, did water get inside your heart? You must think carefully before you speak. Don’t let others think that the heads of the three Holy Lands only know how to fart! And don’t know how to speak human words!”
Mo Wu Dao may not be a high levelled expert, but his status had him highly revered, even where the Saint Venerable seniors of the three Holy Lands would treat him courteously. When had he been this crudely criticized in his face? In his shock, his face burned and blood rushed to his head. He was about to speak but was stopped by Gu Han. Then, Gu Han sat down first.
Gu Han knew that Jun Mo Xie was not someone to turn so arrogant and full-of-himself the moment the heat got to his head!
There must be a reason why he was like this!
Otherwise, there was no way he would be this cold and aloof today when he was still aiding them to fight the enemy and even gifted them with medicine yesterday.
“Manor Lord Jun, if Heaven Saint Palace has offended you in anyway, do speak without holding back. The enemy is before us; if we are unable to erase this estrangement, I believe it’ll be hard for us to cooperate.” Gu Han said with a smile, sitting peacefully.
“Well said, Senior Gu talks plainly! Since that’s the case, I shall be straightforward and speak bluntly.” An icy smile appeared on Jun Mo Xie’s face. “But I wonder how many people are there exactly that remain guard at the old battleground of the War for Seizing the Heavens?”
Gu Han’s eyes narrowed. As expected, something must have happened! But I wonder what did those people do exactly? To make this untamable Evil Monarch this furious? But now is the crucial time that both of us must work together was one to resist the enemy’s invasion. It is truly not a good time for any disagreement, especially when they are such an important force in this battle!
“There are a significant number of people that stay guard at the battleground of the War for Seizing the Heaves.” Gu Han pondered before answering honestly. “After all, the strange races may not keep their word, who knows when they will attempt to trespass the boundaries...”
Jun Mo Xie scoffed coldly. “In Senior Gu’s opinion, from where they are located, will the collapse of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains and the eruption of the volcanoes cause them to suffer great casualties?!”
“This is definitely impossible!” Gu Han chuckled. “Those are the elite experts that three Holy Lands have picked out carefully! The weakest are already of Saint cultivation! Although the collapse of the Pillar of Heavens Mountains was unexpected, but it definitely won’t be able to bury all of them, I can assure of this.”
“Oh? Is that so?! But I wonder how many people are there exactly? And what is the distribution of their cultivation like!” Jun Mo Xie tilted his head.
Knowing that Jun Mo Xie had deeper meaning in asking this, Gu Han avoided being long-winded and gave a detailed explanation. “For generations, there will definitely not be less than three hundred people who guard the battleground of the War for Seizing the Heavens! And the numbers have been increasing! Of which, there are two Saint Monarchs, eighteen Saint Venerables, a hundred Saint Emperors, and two hundred Saints! The Saints will be changed every few hundred years. All the Saints that stood guard will return to the Heaven Saint Palace to prepare breaking through the bottleneck into the realm of a Saint Emperor. Then after they breakthrough, it is another rotation of people and so on.”
Gu Han chuckled and said, “By rotating in this way, we use the strange races to help train our soldiers to be ready for battle! To raise the quality of our experts. In this way, we can ensure that for generations, experts will be produced! In fact, after the incident, the Heaven Saint Palace and three Holy Lands have truly lost many of our forces. This batch of people is the most elite forces that we are able to offer...”
“What a great way to train your soldiers, the Heaven Saint Palace is truly powerful ah. The most elite force... hehe...” Jun Mo Xie chuckled mockingly. “Since the three Holy Lands have such a tremendous force, you definitely must not take these mere strange races to heart! Then, this bunch of elite forces of yours... where are they now?”
“Naturally they are guarding the battlefield, that is their duty, if there is no major incidents, how could they recklessly... ah?” Gu Han was stunned when he said this.
“The battlefield of the War for Seizing the Heavens? The Pillar of Heavens Mountains has already collapsed, what battlefield is there? Major incidents? Whatever that has happened, is it still not considered a major incident yet?” Jun Mo Xie said icily. “I am truly unable to understand what Senior Gu said earlier. Could it be that Senior Gu is joking?!”
“Indeed, I spoke wrongly earlier. What Manor Lord Jun is saying is... En, could it be that in the huge battle today, they did not take part?” Gu Han’s face instantly turned ugly! The moment they arrived, they could already tell that there had been an extremely intense battle that happened here!
And the intensity of the battle could be said to be one that they had never seen before in all of their lives! Just from the smallest clues, there had been at least twenty Saint Venerables who had participated in this battle, and many of them had died. Otherwise, the Heaven Earth Spiritual Qi would not be in such great disequilibrium!
So Gu Han had assumed that those who were standing guard at the Pillar of Heavens Mountains definitely took part in this battle.
Who knew, Jun Mo Xie had suddenly asked all these questions, the answer was obvious: these experts did not take part in this battle!
Now, if Gu Han was no longer clear of where the problem lay, then he would have lived in vain for the past three thousand years!
All the experts of Heaven Saint Palace and Mo Wu Dao and the rest all changed!
Some of them had a furious look in their eyes!
With everyone’s experience, it was not difficult to figure out what sort of loss would have resulted from a big battle like this. Since those people did not partake in the battle, then all those losses would have naturally fallen onto Tian Fa Forest!
This was something no one could accept! Even Mo Wu Dao had a furious look in his eyes! Right now, they understood Jun Mo Xie. If they met with something like this... they may have an even bigger reaction than him right now!
This was hitting someone who was down! And someone who was their own comrade!
And the outcome of this battle would directly affect the lives of the world! The entire continent! This sort of action was extremely b*stardly!
No one had never imagined those people to be crushed to death by the Pillar of Heavens Mountains because that was impossible. And now, there were no battles going on elsewhere, only here...
There was only one conclusion: they did not wish to assist! So they didn’t!
“The battle yesterday, the strange races deployed almost two hundred men! Of which, there were many experts. Including thousands of Hell Enduring Ghosts, four hundred over Frenzy Blade Enduring Earth, and thirteen Supremacy Enduring Heavens! And fought against my Tian Fa brothers who had rushed here for six whole hours! Until now, even after the battle, Tian Fa has not seen a single reinforcement!”
Jun Mo Xie stood up, his hands behind his back as his sharp and incisive gaze swept across the faces of those from the three Holy Lands. Under his gaze, everyone was speechless and lowered their heads! All of them felt utterly embarrassed and ashamed!
They had used all possible ways to get Tian Fa Forest and Evil Monarch Manor to forget about their previous grievances and partake in the battle. They had rushed day and night, covering great distances to the Pillar of Heavens Mountains to take part in the war. But they had never imagined that when these reinforcements were rushing into battle after their long journey, soaked in blood, their own men who were nearby continued to look on without lifting a finger!
Everyone felt like they had received a hot, tight slap across their faces!
“Would you like to know the details of this battle?” An inconcealable sadness appeared on Jun Mo Xie’s face, but also, a look of absolute pride! All the other members of Tian Fa beside him had a look of grief and pride on their faces, but they all puffed their chests proudly!
This was a pride that belonged to Tian Fa! What their brothers hand exchanged with their lives!
At this moment, everyone from Tian Fa felt proud but grief and indignation!
Gu Han could already imagine the whole story. His face was completely red, the green vein on his forehead popping out from anger. He gritted his teeth and said, “I’d like to hear the details!” His anger was naturally not because of Jun Mo Xie being impolite or aggressive! But because of the nonfeasance of those standing guard!
Right now, Gu Han was only thinking how great would it be if a crack suddenly appeared on the ground? He’d definitely worm right into it! It would be better than the sort of embarrassing torment at this moment no matter what!
This sort of humiliation was given to him by his own men!
He could not avoid it, it could not be avoided, he could only listen to it obediently, and bear the consequences...
“This battle! Tian Fa’s first echelon departed from Tian Fa Forest, travelled miles to arrive at this place, all the members participated in the battle!” Jun Mo Xie’s voice suddenly turned louder, as if he was yelling. “Eagle King led three thousand warriors of the Eagle Clan, Bear King lead three thousand warriors of the Bear Clan! And the eight Saint Venerables of Tian Fa Forest, Saint Venerable Lu and the rest, engaged in a bloody battle with the strange races of over twenty thousand men!”
“The strength of all these brothers had been boosted through a secret method before coming— the weakest were of a fourth level Venerable cultivation! They were only one step away into the realm of a Saint!” Jun Mo Xie’s voice reverberated in everyone’s eardrums.
Then Jun Mo Xie stopped and looked up, taking in a deep breath. “All of you benevolent people from the Holy Lands who enjoy speaking of the sake of the world, do you know what is the outcome of this battle?”
Gu Han only felt like his face was on fire, but he did not have any other choice but to reply, he muttered. “Victorious?”
“Victorious! Of course it was victorious! If it wasn’t could you still sit so peacefully here? Not only was this battle victorious, it was a great victory! Almost two hundred thousand strange races were annihilated, and only less than ten thousand managed to escape back! Of which, a majority of the thousands of Hell Enduring Ghosts were killed here! As to those over four hundred Frenzy Blade Enduring Earth, they were turned into ashes! The strongest, those thirteen Supremacy Enduring Heavens, were all killed with no exception!”
Hong! Great disbelief and agitation filled the tent!
With the tremendous force of the strange races, even if the three Holy Lands had deployed all of their men when they were in their prime, they would have to pay an unimaginable price if they wished to obtain victory! And right now, Tian Fa Forest had managed to obtain such a glorious battle result. How was this possible!
“How is this possible?” Mo Wu Dao cried in shock and elation.
“Senior Gu, I had only told you the outcome of the battle, and the loss on the enemy’s side. But do you know what sort of price our Tian Fa Forest had to pay for this battle?”
Jun Mo Xie did not bother with Mo Wu Dao, only staring intently at Gu Han as he said in a low voice. “Our Tian Fa... The eight Saint Venerable Seniors, Eagle King, and three thousand Eagle warriors, and more than two thousand bear warriors... all turned into a legend in this battle!”
Gu Han raised his head in shock! His face completely white!
“Would you like to know how they died?” Jun Mo Xie only felt an unsuppressable surge of grief and anger in his heart as he boomed. “Not a single one of the brothers from Tian Fa left their bodies on that battlefield! Aside from Eagle King who died protecting his comrade, all of them died by self-detonation! And it was all through an extreme self-detonation by releasing their spirit, Xuan Qi, and their body! This was how they obtained the glorious results that Lord Mo reckons as impossible!”
Everyone’s body jolted violently, all stupefied!
Everyone had already imagined that this battle was definitely extremely dreadful, but they had never imagined that it would be this dreadful!
Eight Saint Venerables, six thousand Saints and above, had to use the extreme method of self-detonation to stop the enemies from invading!
“Right now, I only wish to ask one question. When our warriors were battling, where were your men? The Eagle-Bear Army had rushed all the way here from afar, without rest! Then where were those elite experts who were the nearest from the battlefield?!”
Jun Mo Xie gaze laid on Gu Han and the rest. “Even if they did not expect the strange races to invade so quickly, let’s assume that they did not notice that the battle had begun, but when our men used self-detonation to resist the strange races, where were they?! Those experts you had left to stay guard! Even for a first level Saint Emperor, it is less than an hours journey from here! Could all these experts be deaf? Are they all blind?”
Jun Mo Xie apathetically, the chilling murderous look in his eyes was like a bolt of lightning. “Gu Han! Those who had died in the battle are my brothers! I, Jun Mo Xie’s, brothers!”
He had always addressed Gu Han as ‘Senior Gu’, but right now, his addressment had completely changed, calling him by his name! Although his voice remained indifferent, it was full of hostility!
The higher-ups of three Holy Lands, the total of almost fifty people all felt completely ashamed under Jun Mo Xie’s intense gaze!
Shame!
This was absolutely the greatest humiliation!
Watching their own comrades battle to death before their eyes, while their people did not even show their faces!
Under the cold gaze of Jun Mo Xie, Mei Xue Yan, and the rest, Gu Han suddenly felt at a loss for words.
Not only Gu Han, everyone from the three Holy Lands found it difficult to speak. Even Mo Wu Dao who was so silver-tongued couldn’t find the words to say!
This was definitely an unforgivable crime!
Jun Mo Xie gritted his teeth and suddenly hollered. “Gu Han! My brothers must not die for nothing! I want you to give me an explanation on this matter! The three Holy Lands also must give me an explanation! I must not let our brothers die with a remaining grievance! For this, I, Jun Mo Xie, will go to any lengths, at any cost!”
