Chapter 1543 - 580: Flaw (Part 2)
But to cultivate to the Eighth Level, one must completely master the previous levels.
Yang Xiaoyun’s current power is temporarily not at this level.
However, with the foundation of her current power, the mental method of the Life and Death Tribulation Eye has enlightened her upon hearing it.
Though still far from mastering it, she can already unleash some of its might.
On Tianqi Island, she watched from start to finish as Su Mo violently defeated the Seventh Jing.
Regarding the martial arts of the Longmen Seventh Jing, she may not be fully versed, but her knowledge far surpasses that of ordinary people.
Therefore, when Lei Zhenming revealed this move, she recognized it immediately.
At that time, she observed Su Mo, seeing Su Mo slightly shake his head, and thus she kept silent.
But in reality, Lei Zhenming couldn’t even deceive Yang Xiaoyun, so how could he hope to deceive Su Mo?
This foundation had already been plainly exposed.
However, Su Mo did not intend to make these details clear to Lei Zhenming.
And when Gao Tianqi heard this, he couldn’t help but be enlightened:
"So it’s the Great Sumeru Demon Sky Divine Power!
"Fuhai Blade Lei Zhenming, famous in Nanhai for many years, yet unexpectedly a lackey of the Jinglong Association!"
"Hahahaha."
Lei Zhenming, hearing this, also stopped pretending and laughed wildly:
"Su Mo... you are truly formidable!
"I have feigned madness and stupidity for years, even believing myself to be such a person.
"But unexpectedly, a careless flaw revealed my identity to you...
"What’s more frightening is that you recognized my identity but always remained inactive.
"The Sixth Lord was right; deceiving you is indeed too difficult.
"Only by racing against time, using the mechanisms within this Martial God Temple to kill you, can there be a sliver of hope!"
"Oh?"
Su Mo slightly raised an eyebrow:
"What sort of arrangements do you plan to use to kill me?
"I don’t know why, but I always feel you seem to know this Martial God Temple better than I do.
"Where did you get this information?"
"Hehehe..."
Lei Zhenming chuckled lowly, not answering but murmured:
"In the past, there was the tyrant Xuan trampling Jianghu, the people wailing everywhere, with no means of living.
"Today, Jianghu strongmen rise, the people can’t fill their bellies, corpses drift for miles.
"Su Mo... your martial arts are superb, your mind is sharp, your wisdom deep.
"Why must you be against my Jinglong Association?
"Years ago, my Jinglong Association wanted to overthrow the tyrant Xuan, to bring the world a bright and clear Qian Kun.
"Even to this day, our only hope is to unify the world, so this Jianghu can no longer ravage the people, so-called Jianghu strongmen can each be obedient and self-disciplined...
"You, why must you assist tyranny?"
These words suddenly left those present looking at each other in dismay.
Then, Gao Tianqi scoffed coldly:
"Ridiculous... the Jinglong Association wants to unify the world?
"Then just conquer the world; why still skulk in the shadows?
"In the past, you sought to overthrow the Da Xuan Dynasty, but was it the Jinglong Association that overthrew it?
"If so, the world would have long been unified under you, why wait until today?
"You failed to overthrow Da Xuan in the past, and today you speak empty words of unifying the world?
"How dare you use the people as an excuse!
"Without speaking of others, just regarding Nanhai.
"In the past when Jianghu ran rampant, it was our Nanhai Alliance, Dragon King Hall, and Gui Xu Island that ensured the people had clothes to wear and food to eat!
"Calming the chaos, dividing Nanhai into three, and laying the foundation for centuries of peace was also us three.
"What does any of this have to do with your Jinglong Association?
"Now I have the Young Master Su as head of the two major forces in Nanhai, and he inherits the Martial God Temple’s legacy.
"Unified Nanhai, eliminating all chaos, is just around the corner!
"Then the people of Nanhai will have clothes to wear and food to eat, Nanhai will be at peace, and the people will be joyful.
"According to your Jinglong Association’s ideals, shouldn’t you be bowing to him as your lord, willingly serving him?
"But what are you doing?
"He’s against your Jinglong Association?
"Clearly, it’s you who are against our Nanhai!
"Against our Nanhai people!
"You clearly have ambitious schemes, aiming for the world.
"Don’t you dare use the people as a façade!!"
Throughout his life, Gao Tianqi had only one objective, one wish.
That was to hope to unify Nanhai, so that peace could prevail and no disputes would arise, no waves would stir.
Today, hearing Lei Zhenming accuse Su Mo with these words, he could no longer hold back.
After finishing his speech, although it left Lei Zhenming speechless with anger, Mingyue Taoist and others couldn’t help but applaud.
"Exactly, that’s the truth!"
"What is the Jinglong Association? Hiding in the shadows, doing unspeakable deeds, how can such people unite the world?"
"Living in a dream! To unify the world, at the very least you need to make your name known. How dare these scoundrels, hiding in the dark, aim for the throne of the supreme ruler?"
"Not to mention whether they dare... Years ago, when chaos plagued the Nanhai, the people were displaced, fights raged in Jianghu, it was indeed the Nanhai Alliance, Dragon King Hall, and Gui Xu Island that ended the chaos.
"Now the situation is better, with Young Master Su emerging out of nowhere, everyone admires his martial prowess, willing to serve under him.
"If your Jinglong Association cared for the people, at this point, shouldn’t you be retreating?
"Now, like rats, you sneak into this Martial God Temple, dreaming of seizing our Nanhai’s foundation.
"Yet dare to speak so grandiosely about yourselves, utterly shameless!!!"
Everyone present spoke one after another, leaving Lei Zhenming blue in the face.
