“Besides, Xiao Monarch had fought against that evil organization many times. He knows them more than all the others do!
“So, I, Ge Zhenfeng, humbly request for the great Lord Monarch’s support… Please, stand out for us! Be the brightest and toughest flag for the world! Please lead us to fight the war and destroy the evil organization! Please save our homeland!
“Great Lord Xiao Monarch, you have been living like a divine dragon, out of the business of the martial world. However, the story of you has never stopped spreading in this world. No matter how powerful the organization is, they can never threaten your safety… However, we are begging you, Lord Monarch! For the sake of all livings in the world, swing your sword for us! Only under your command, we can fight against the enemy!”
Ge Zhenfeng was really lighting up a bright light in the darkness for the others!
The crowd of people were all enlightened.
[Master Ge is right! Xiao Monarch is kind and powerful. He is our hope! If he stands out to lead us, we can have the chance to defeat that evil organization!]
[Most importantly, Xiao Monarch is such a capable man! He has just defeated Wu Fa! He is a legend to us!]
In fact, some of them had thought of the same idea. However, they also knew that the isolated cultivators hated to get involved to something unrelated to them. Ye Xiao was typically an isolated cultivator. They assumed that he wouldn’t mess with the organization. Besides, they believed the organization wouldn’t bother to deal with the isolated cultivators. Xiao Monarch could just walk away from the war. No matter what happened, he didn’t need to set foot in the mess. However, Ge Zhenfeng was speaking out the hope in all these people’s hearts!
How could they not be touched as now their hope was lit up!
“Please, great Lord Xiao Monarch! Help us… Please hold justice for us!”
All of them bowed.
Everyone looked so sincere as if they were worshiping a god!
Ye Xiao made a sigh to the sky, speechless, pretended to be having difficulty. In fact, he was enjoying the feeling. [Ge Zhenfeng, is quite a cunning fox. Only a few words and he actually got what I wanted to say. At the right time, he spoke out the right thing and made the right scene. Well, he is also quite honest. He is telling the truth about me… generous, heroic, righteous, honest, brave, kind, merciful… I can’t deny it! Although I was not in the world, the world never forgot my name!]
It was such a perfect starting scene, and he should continue the show next…
After a while, he pretended to worry about the vexatious situation. He blandly said, “Please, get up, guys.”
However, the cultivators were still kneeling.
They thought the great Xiao Monarch was going to say no to them.
[It seems… he is not going to give us the expected response… He seemed to be pretty angry about the secret organization. He talked like he was going fight the vile organization himself! What happened? What do we do if he doesn’t agree? Is our hope going to break?] They were all nervous.
They all understood though. They thought Xiao Monarch was angry about the secret organization, but Xiao Monarch never said it. Everybody had a personal formula for doing things.
[Xiao Monarch is the greatest cultivator in Qing-Yun Realm. Even if all the people in the organization fight him together, he can still escape as he wants.]
[Nobody could kill such a powerful man who is like a dragon to the world.]
[The secret organization is powerful indeed, but not a threat to Xiao Monarch.]
[If he agrees to lead us, he will have to consider much more and work much more. After all, he will have to fight the organization to the end.]
[Nobody knows what the result will be.]
[If Xiao Monarch can live a leisured life, hanging around the world like a dragon, why would he risk his life for us?]
They asked themselves the question and got the same answer. Because it was too much to ask Xiao Monarch for, they all felt upset and frustrated.
However, they couldn’t give up the last hope they got, so they just kept getting down on the knees.
“Lord Xiao Monarch, if you refuse… We will die in those people’s hand sooner or later. I would rather die here in front of you. You saved our lives from the demonic Wu Fa anyway. Just take it as we are returning our lives to you.”
Somebody kept doing kowtow, moaning with tears.
Ye Xiao was going to say yes, but he hated to be forced by others, so he was a bit hesitating…
However, the sound of a dash rang up in the air. Somebody rushed into the hall like a shooting star. “Chief, a battle is ongoing in the south of Qing-Yun Realm. A group of overwhelmingly powerful men who wear black clothes attacked Sikong Clan. The two sides are both fighting pretty drastically. Sikong Clan has lost many people. Their place is ruined. Sikong Nan, their Clan Chief nearly died… Their place has become a ruin now!”
Apparently, this people had been in shock after he learned the information about the battle. He kept slipping out the words in a hurry with gasps, but then he realized something was unusual in the hall. “What… What is going on?”
Before he finished, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell back down to the floor.
He had been moving as fast as he could after he learned the message. He didn’t stop even for once on the way. First, it was Sima Clan, and then Sikong Clan—the two clans were both among the nine great clans, just like Ge Clan.
The nine clans weren’t so friendly to each other, but now they were facing the same enemy.
Nobody knew who would be the next target.
This man had been consuming all the energy he had to get home. Now that he had told everybody what he wanted to say, so he finally relaxed. That was why he finally couldn’t hold it up, only fell into unconsciousness.
Everybody in the hall was shocked when they heard the news. Each of them showed a pale face all of a sudden.
