Xu Que’s answer to them would decide if Jiang Hongyan would really be taken back to the Xuanzhen Continent and whether the Four Great Continents would still exist in five years.
Xu Que stared at them and said in a deep voice, “My answer is...”
All of a sudden, a great power pressure erupted from him, and he shouted, “...not letting Jiang Hongyan go back to the Xuanzhen Continent!”
Hearing this, everyone present was shocked and stood still. They never thought Xu Que would be this abrupt.
Not letting Jiang Hongyan go back to the Xuanzhen Continent! Killing us if we dare to ask one more time? He is really cruel.
Many cultivators clenched their fists tightly and were shivering all over their bodies. They felt desperate. Although they were all very angry, they could not release their anger because Xu Que was someone who could kill even a cultivator who was at the threshold of the Crossing Calamity Stage.
Close to the huge city walls, there were standing countless cultivators, none of whom made any sound at all. Suddenly, Xu Que took back his powerful pressure and calmly looked at the cultivators, “You all need to wake up from your dreams. Do you really think the Four Great Continents would not be threatened once I allowed Hongyan to go back to the Xuanzhen Continent. You are totally wrong!”
Everyone present was stunned.
Xu Que continued to say, “You all know that the weak would definitely be killed by the strong in this world! The reason you are bullied is because you are weak! I have already proved this point to you. You can not possibly hurt me or do anything to me even if I don’t agree to hand Jiang Hongyan back to them. See? It’s just this simple!”
“...”
No one said anything.
Xu Que was right. They were too weak to fight back.
“I am not a saint or a hero. I just want to protect someone I cherish! I don’t care who Jiang Hongyan was in her last life, nor do I care what danger I would be in if I choose to keep her at my side. I only know that she is mine in this life. I would not let anyone hurt her, and I would never give her to her ruthless so-called father!”
Xu Que’s voice was so loud and strong that Jiang Hongyan and all the cultivators heard clearly. Of course, his words were also kept in those flying Message Delivering Papers. In the air, the Message Delivering Papers changed into flying light one after another and then disappeared.
Xu Que’s voice was echoing across the Four Great Continents. Countless cultivators heard him. They were angry at first; then they all got silent and lowered their heads.
They all knew Xu Que was right.
Just as he has said, he is neither a saint nor a hero. He just wants to keep someone he loves safe, which is totally right! There is only one thing that he has done wrong, and that is that the someone he wants to protect is too special! Jiang Hongyan, in her last life, was the daughter of the King of the Xuanzhen Continent. Now they want her back to be the puppet to maintain their control. If she does not go back, we all will probably be killed. By that time, the Four Great Continents would become a living hell.
The blood would gather together and become a river. Anyone who survived would be held hostage and become a slave for eternity. We all know what would happen. That’s why we pushed Xu Que to make a decision. We simply want to catch every chance to be alive. Now he has made it clear that he will not hand Jiang Hongyan back to them, so we can do nothing.
...
In a inn of the ancient city, Jiang Hongyan’s eyes were watering and she was feeling rather complicated. When Xu Que said forcefully that Jiang Hongyan was his woman in this life, Jiang Hongyan was deeply moved and could feel that her cold heart started to change. She knew she was very powerful and never thought she would be so carefully nurtured and protected by someone. Since she met Xu Que, she felt the happiness of being protected more than once.
...
Meanwhile, Xu Que was standing on the city wall and staring at the cultivators. “In fact, there is only one word that can well explain why we are all in this situation, which is ‘weakness’! You all think I am not strong enough, so you have no confidence in me; you think you are weak, so you do what the cultivators of the Xuanzhen Continent ask you to do to be safe. But what if I let Jiang Hongyan go back, and they come back in ten years? In ten years, the lock set on the Four Great Continents would lose its effect. Do you really think they would not come to us then? How about cultivators from the Xuanling Continent?”
Xu Que’s voice was getting louder and louder.
Hearing this, everyone present suddenly “woke up”! Yes, even if they won’t come to us in five years after Jiang Hongyan goes back, they will ten years later, when the lock loses its effect. Countless cultivators from both the Xuanzhen Continent and the Xuanling Continent would come to occupy our land and take our resources! Then, we would be living in a hell.
“I am not trying to defend my actions in not allowing Jiang Hongyan to go back. I am just trying to tell you that running away is not of any help! Even if the lock can still protect you for another ten years, 20 years, or even a century, you lot can’t run away from the fate of being bullied. You are too weak!”
Xu Que’s words were like a knife that was cruelly tearing out the cultivators’ hearts. They all lowered their heads and made no sound.
The Message Delivering Papers were still flying to all corners of the Four Great Continents, and everyone heard Xu Que’s words and were lost in contemplation.
Yes, what he said is totally true.
“What should we do?!”
“For us, five years of guaranteed safety or ten years of guaranteed safety make no difference!”
“Each Continent would ‘welcome’ its doom in a certain period of time in history. But...why do I have to experience all this?!”
“Why we are still this weak after all these years?!”
“We are all doomed! Screw being immortal!”
“We will die at last!”
People began to grow more and more self-pitying and desperate.
Xu Que was still standing on the city wall and began to sneer. “Now what? You become more desperate and feel like you have lost all hope? You all feel like we will soon be doomed?!”
Everyone was feeling more upset after hearing the piercing words. It was like sprinkling salt on their wounds.
“No, there is no need to be desperate!” Suddenly, Xu Que shouted aloud.
Everyone raised up their heads and looked at Xu Que in confusion.
Xu Que was in a very serious mood and shouted, “Why do you have to wear such gloomy faces?! Why lose all your hope?! Yes, we are weak, and the weak are bound to be bullied. But this does not mean we should sit here and do nothing! Why should we be afraid of the cultivators of the Xuanzhen Continent? Why should we just sit here, undignified, and wait for their arrival?!”
Bang!
“Suddenly, Xu Que waved his hand, and a ball of fire cloud appeared in the air! The fire was getting bigger and bigger and started to tumble. It seemed that it was going to cover the entire sky. Everyone could feel the increasing temperature.
Xu Que stared at them and said with great determination, “On behalf of the Exploding Heavens Faction, I, Xu Que, declare a war on the Xuanzhen Continent. I will fight for my dignity and my fate! We will never kneel down to the enemy, we will stand on our feet all the time! Are you all ready to fight against them together with me?”
Then he took out audio equipment, and the sound of “The Internationale” began to flow.
“Stand up, the starving cultivators who are feeling cold; stand up, everyone who is suffering; the blood in my veins is boiling; we have to fight for our own fate; don’t say we have nothing at all; we have to be the masters of this world; this is the final battle, let’s work together to bring the beautiful tomorrow!”
