10267 Chapter 10266-
That was the truth.
Looking at the Great Wall of sword Qi that was soaring into the sky, the mighty army of a million stopped in unison. Even the most impulsive ones among them had regained their calm in an instant.
If they were to charge into the chaotic battlefield, some of them might really get carried away in a moment of impulse. After all, there was still a certain chance of survival.
Especially since there were so many of them, the other party would have some reservations.
However, when they saw the Great Wall of sword Qi in front of them, they immediately came to their senses.
They would not dare to do something like this, which was obviously a death sentence, unless they were determined to die. However, if they were determined to die, why would they follow them in the demonstration?
The crowd was forced to stop, and the situation fell into a stalemate.
However, just as everyone thought that the million-strong Army would stop here and could only wait outside the royal city of the North Sea for the dust to settle, a figure slowly walked out from the back of the crowd.
Wherever he passed, the crowd spontaneously made way for him.
It wasn’t that this person had a high influence in the Army of millions. In fact, everyone, including the people who had spontaneously made way for him, was shocked and doubtful.
It wasn’t them who gave way to him on their own accord, but an invisible and powerful force pushing them to the sides. However, it wasn’t a substantial force. Strictly speaking, it was more like an invisible aura.
“You are …”
Wang hou, who was guarding the front with the swordsman, could not help but be stunned when he saw the appearance of the person. He said uncertainly,””Swordsman?”
The person in front of him had a similar body shape to Chu Xia. He also carried a long saber on his back, but it was not his iconic giant mo saber. Most importantly, this person had a head full of white hair and his face was covered with all kinds of shocking scars.
If not for Wang hou’s familiarity with him, anyone else, even those professional intelligence agencies, would not have been able to associate this man with a swordsman.
Chu Xia stopped in his tracks. They were about the same age as Wang hou, but the temperament they displayed at this moment was completely different from that of two generations.
“What are you doing here? What did you experience?”
Wang hou could not believe his eyes as he looked at his childhood friend, whose face was filled with the vicissitudes of life.
In his impression, no matter what kind of situation the other party was in, he would always be in high spirits. The word “dejected” had never been associated with the other party. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that the dark hero would have such a side.
Chu Xia was silent for a moment, then he sighed and said,””It’s a long story. Take your men and move aside first. We’ll talk after we’ve settled this big matter. ”
Wang hou was taken aback, frowning at the other.””You’re going to stand up for them?”
“It’s not the first day you’ve known me, Marquis. I’ve traveled the martial world for the sake of righteousness. Since I was young, I’ve never let it down, and today is no exception.”
Chu Xia said in a firm tone,”the majority of the civilians have been exploited and poisoned by the life crystals. They have no means of living now. Those high and mighty people in power will only use them as chips to realize their ambitions. Who cares about their life and death?”
This matter concerns the world’s justice. If I sit by and do nothing today, I wouldn’t be a hero. ”
“That sounds like something you would say.”
Wang hou nodded, but then said firmly,””But since that’s the case, I can’t let you go. Everything my Lord Sword Saint did was for the sake of the people.
Only by taking down the Imperial City of the North Sea and truly unifying the four Seas could the commoners have a good life.
Otherwise, if this chaos continues, they will be the ones suffering in the end. ”
When the crowd heard this, they immediately started to make a ruckus.
The goal of this million-strong Army was to force Lin Yi, the initiator, to step down and make him commit suicide in public to atone for all the sins he’d committed. How could he be so easily persuaded by a few words from Wang hou?
Chu Xia revealed a disappointed expression and shook his head,””Every ambitious family says the same thing, but in the end, they all become evil dragons without exception!”
“Yes!” Wang hou’s expression was determined.”My Sword Saint is different!”
Before this, he wasn’t very submissive to Lin Yi. When he first stood on Lin Yi’s side, other than weighing the pros and cons, it was mainly because he didn’t like ao Taiyi’s personality.
But after this period of time, especially after Lin Yi’s sincere acceptance and teaching him the absolute-kill sword formation, he was truly convinced by Lin Yi and was now one of Lin Yi’s most solid supporters in the sword Pavilion.
“What’s different about him?”
The Chu Xia became more and more disappointed. He turned around and pointed at the millions of people behind him,””Ask them, ever since Lin Yi took over, have their lives gotten better or worse? have they been exploited more or less?
If he could really do a little better than the other evil dragons, how could these people not hesitate to leave their homes and risk their lives to join the army of a million?
A Marquis could not only listen to what a person said, but also what they did.
Recognize the reality and stop helping the evildoer. ”
“No.” Wang hou still shook his head.”Swordsman, you are indeed a rare true swordsman, but you really don’t understand how to rule the world.
You know what they’re asking for. They’ll give us all the life crystals for free and even request that we’ll always have free life crystals in the future. Do you really think that’s realistic?
Believe me, if this was feasible, you wouldn’t even need to organize this army of one million. My Lord Sword Saint would have done it long ago.
The reason why he didn’t do it was because he couldn’t do it. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another wave of curses from the other side.
“Houzi, Lin Yi’s influence on you is too great, you’ve been completely brainwashed by him.”
Chu Xia pointed at the people behind him and said,”what is the People’s hearts? you’re seeing and hearing it now. What right does Lin Yi have to decide what’s good and what’s bad for the people?”
I’ll say this one last time-the People’s hearts are the will of heaven. If Lin Yi doesn’t want to come to his senses and stands against the people of the world, then don’t blame the rolling tide for crushing him.
No matter how strong he is, there’s only one outcome for him, death without a burial ground. ”
“……”
Wang hou sighed in silence.
The conversation couldn’t go on any longer-the guy said he’d been brainwashed by Lin Yi, and he felt that the poison was too deep for him to pull back.
Seeing that Wang hou was silent but still firmly stood in front of him, Chu Xia’s eyes gradually sharpened as he slowly drew his blade from behind.
“Houzi, I don’t want to attack you, but if you must stand against the people of the four Seas, then I have no other choice. You and I are just a small favor, and the people of the four Seas are a big favor. For the big favor, we can only give up the small favor!”
