Chapter 859: Chapter 378: Group Photo, Wan Dao Martial God Realm
The atmosphere on the field had grown heavy and quiet, so silent that even the sound of a needle dropping could be heard.
"Jiejiejie... Sorry, no, let me try that again... cough, cough."
Qi Yuan let out an awkward laugh.
He was at a loss for words, wanting to crack open Old Man Shenlei’s skull to see what exactly was inside his brain.
What virtue or ability did he, Qi Yuan, possess, a mere weak and helpless Divine Child Cultivator, to be compared with an all-knowing and almighty god?
"Ladies and gentlemen, this was unexpected. Old Man Shenlei is a dear friend of mine; I saved his life, and his trust in me is normal."
The Martial Lords watched Qi Yuan with disbelief in their eyes.
Among them, the gaze of Hei Lu Martial Lord held a hint of coldness.
"I think he’s been brainwashed by you, the Heavenly Venerable. Even an all-knowing, almighty god can’t do that, so how can you?"
Many Martial Lords stepped forward and spoke up.
"Does saving a life justify ignoring the facts?"
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan felt his composure slipping.
"Hey, aren’t you all being a bit hypocritical?
Why can Dongjun do what an all-knowing, almighty god can’t, but I can’t?"
Qi Yuan was quite dissatisfied.
It’s true that he didn’t match up to an all-knowing, almighty god.
But Dongjun, he seemed not to be an all-knowing, almighty god either.
Why was he inferior to Dongjun then?
Qi Yuan’s words left the Martial Lords present somewhat stunned.
However, soon a female Martial Lord spoke up: "Heavenly Venerable, your strength is indeed great, but Dongjun... he is a special being. We can only save this world by following his commands."
The other Martial Lords echoed in agreement.
"Heavenly Venerable, you may have the power to make us bow our heads, but you can’t change what we believe!"
These people always stood by Dongjun’s side.
Others might have become agitated by now.
But Qi Yuan maintained a calm demeanor.
"What if I said that Dongjun’s actions are not for saving the world? How would you respond?" Qi Yuan asked with interest.
He remembered the ultimate truth True Monarch Dazhi had mentioned.
Could it be that Dongjun’s words, his captivating rhetoric, was a kind of ultimate truth?
"That’s impossible!"
"Dongjun never lies. Even if he does this, it is for the greater good of saving the world."
A group of Martial Lords kept talking, their emotions running high.
The once respectful and gentle Hei Lu Martial Lord, who was always nice to Qi Yuan, had seemed to change into a different person at this moment.
These people were as if they had been brainwashed.
Even more severely than the fanatics of a cult.
Reason was not going to work here.
The only option...
Qi Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said lazily, "What Dongjun says has nothing to do with me.
However, until I become a Ten Thousand Paths Martial God, I won’t let the world merge.
And this world... I’m temporarily claiming it!"
The mission of the game was more important than this Dongjun he had never met.
Besides, anyone who can deceive themselves with lies is clearly not a good person.
Luckily, his nose was long enough.
Whatever Dongjun was plotting, Qi Yuan didn’t care, unless it interfered with his game mission, then he would be sorry.
The Dragon Slaying Youth had started, ready to solo the boss.
"If Dongjun has objections, let him come see me!" With that said, Qi Yuan swept his sleeve, and in that instant, his figure vanished.
He stepped on the suddenly swift chariot of two emperors, returning once again to the Land of the End.
Only the Martial Lords of the Eastern Alliance, numbering in the tens of thousands, were left looking at each other in bewilderment.
"The Heavenly Venerable... has fallen into delusion!"
"Or perhaps, he might be a part of the great catastrophe!"
"How could we have gone wrong after restarting so many times with Dongjun’s leadership?"
"You don’t trust Dongjun, but you’d trust a newcomer?"
These Martial Lords had more than a few complaints about Qi Yuan.
If it weren’t for Qi Yuan’s immense strength, they might have already taken action to imprison him, to prevent him from disrupting Dongjun’s plans.
"We must report this to Dongjun!"
"Yes, only Dongjun can settle this matter!"
The Martial Lords discussed fervently, pinning their hopes on Dongjun.
At that moment, from a corner, Mu Yan heard these conversations, and his expression shifted again and again.
He looked at the newly advanced Martial Lords who had come with him; they were also looking at him, fear and shock evident in the depths of their eyes.
"Mu Yan, I know you have a deep connection with that Heavenly Venerable and would stand by his side.
But... Dongjun can do no wrong.
Once you meet Dongjun, you’ll understand why we trust him so completely." Mu Yan’s Ancestor of Bloodline spoke up, his voice carrying the affection a senior holds for a junior.
"This..." Mu Yan hesitated.
Then he heard the Ancestor say: "You don’t have to distance yourself from the Heavenly Venerable. Once he meets Dongjun, he will trust Dongjun as we do."
Upon hearing this, Mu Yan felt even more resistant.
Then he saw the kindly smile on the Ancestor’s face: "Sometimes, choosing to believe... isn’t it better than despair?
Of all the Martial Lords present, ninety percent chose to believe in Dongjun voluntarily!"
Mu Yan was shocked to hear this.
To choose to believe in Dongjun voluntarily?
What did that mean?
"What if... What if Dongjun is mistaken?" Mu Yan said with difficulty.
"When a person’s words are taken as truth by everyone, he cannot be wrong!
Everything he says is right!" The Ancestor of Bloodline declared, his eyes filled with fervor, "At this time, to actively believe and offer one’s loyalty is a far more appropriate choice than passive belief!"
"But..." Mu Yan was undecided, "what if, just what if, Dongjun is truly not out to save the world?"
The Ancestor maintained a gentle expression.
"First, Dongjun cannot be mistaken; he is saving the world.
Second, all beings in the world who see Dongjun will become his followers. A Dongjun like this... everything he does is right.
There cannot be a will in the world that opposes Dongjun."
However, as he spoke, a torrent of murderous intent surfaced in his eyes.
