Chapter 617: Talk Like Controlling the Kingdom

Talk Like Controlling the Kingdom . . .

Zuo Wuji let out a scornful snort before saying, "God bless you? Hah! Allow me to elucidate further. My concerns about Ling-Bao Hall are not unique. The officials in the court are all shrewd and seasoned individuals. They will undoubtedly consider Feng Monarch in relation to these events. While they may not be entirely certain, they can certainly make educated conjectures. Presently, they are still reeling from the staggering five hundred billion bounty. They are hesitant to become targets themselves by uttering a single word. It is, after all, a matter of personal survival..."

"For them, threats such as yours are the most fearsome and dire. A mere handful of assassins can obliterate their entire families... Who would dare provoke you under such circumstances?" Zuo Wuji continued, "Moreover, Ling-Bao Hall has undertaken actions that have garnered public approval. No one would lay blame on you."

Cha Eun Xiao nodded in agreement. "Indeed, I\'ve contemplated that as well."

"However, Xiao Xiao, if this situation persists, Ling-Bao Hall will evolve into the primary adversary of all the forces in the Land of Han-Yang. You must be cognizant of this fact and not become complacent with the current enjoyment while disregarding future hidden dangers."

Zuo Wuji continued, "Ling-Bao Hall is undeniably potent within the Land of Han-Yang. Nevertheless, it lacks the strength to confront all the royal houses across the world. If you wish to steer Ling-Bao Hall towards further development, you should refrain from such actions in the future. The subsequent step involves resting and accumulating power. Occasionally, an unseen force is the most formidable one."

Cha Eun Xiao wholeheartedly concurred.

After delivering a mighty blow, it was time for subtler strategies.

Otherwise, he would find himself in conflict with the entire world.

Zuo Wuji\'s wisdom on this matter was undeniable!

In truth, Cha Eun Xiao possessed the capability to vanquish every other force in the world. However, when there was no one else left in the world, what significance remained...

Cha Eun Xiao gazed at Zuo Wuji and had a moment of enlightenment.

He inquired, "How is the young prince you hold in such high regard?"

Zuo Wuji wore a warm smile. "Chen Zhi possesses a resolute spirit and resilience. Furthermore, he retains the purity of a child\'s heart, untainted by the influence of authority... There is still time to instill in him the right principles. He is a diamond in the rough."

"Additionally, Chen Zhi places great emphasis on bonds of friendship. He resembles the king in that aspect. If he eventually ascends to the throne, the Kingdom of Chen could enjoy at least fifty more years atop the world."

He spoke slowly and with an air of solemnity.

With no secrets left between them, they could now engage in discussions of utmost importance. Moreover, their conversation pertained to the future of the kingdom!

In truth, this was the very reason why Zuo Wuji had sought out Cha Eun Xiao.

To strategize before taking action was Zuo Wuji\'s modus operandi!

Cha Eun Xiao playfully rolled his eyes and remarked, "To be honest, I\'m not really invested in this matter. However, since you\'re determined to do it, I\'ll lend my support. After all, we are brothers."

Zuo Wuji appeared somewhat taken aback. He gazed at Cha Eun Xiao for a moment and then broke into a slow smile. He remarked, "Xiao Xiao, aren\'t you concerned that I might seize power and bring suffering to the world? Perhaps I\'ll amass forces to claim the throne for myself."

Cha Eun Xiao responded with an air of nonchalance, "Firstly, I don\'t believe you would do such a thing. You\'re astute and clever, filled with stratagems, but you lack that level of ambition. That, in itself, provides many answers."

"So, you must be aware of your own position. You will rise to prominence in the court, that\'s undeniable, but you will always be an official, loyal to a king. You will not become a king yourself! Never!"

"Secondly..." Cha Eun Xiao smiled gently and continued, "Even if you do ascend to the throne and sit upon it, it won\'t concern me. Whether you choose to act or not is entirely up to you, and I am indifferent. If you become a king, you\'ll still be my brother. If you bring calamity to the world, you\'ll still be my brother. Regardless of your future actions, you will always be my brother. That\'s the extent of it."

Zuo Wuji forced a wry smile and commented, "You truly have no concern for this! I\'m finally convinced that you harbor no attachment to this world. You may never have truly cared for this world, but rather, for the world... up there."

Cha Eun Xiao simply admitted, "Yes."

Zuo Wuji relaxed and stretched his legs. He confided, "You are correct about me. There is one thing I relish the most - deciphering the hidden thoughts of people, outwitting them. I never tire of such activities. However, controlling the world, being a king, bearing that responsibility, is not to my liking."

"When there is someone above me, I can always feel a sense of reverence. As long as I remain respectful, I won\'t exert excessive pressure. Furthermore, it\'s only enjoyable to outwit people when they are on equal footing with me. If I were a king, who would dare to oppose my will? That would be tedious."

"Furthermore, being a king is a demanding role. It offers no freedom. It suffices for me to serve the world and remain under the king\'s command. Ponder it for a moment. It must be gratifying to bring peace to the world! A billion citizens in the kingdom can lead peaceful lives thanks to my efforts! That must be rewarding!"

"That sense of accomplishment... You cultivators may endlessly pursue higher cultivation, but you will never grasp what I yearn for!"

Zuo Wuji\'s face exuded a radiant glow as he expounded on his vision, as though he held the kingdom in his grasp.

Cha Eun Xiao observed him silently, unable to find words to express his thoughts.

While Zuo Wuji\'s dream might be considered magnificent in the Land of Han-Yang, for Cha Eun Xiao, it seemed baffling. Cha Eun Xiao was understanding. If other superior cultivators were aware of this, they would likely sneer at it.

His dream was not to become a king, attain immortality, conquer the universe, or achieve invincibility...

For individuals like Cha Eun Xiao, those were nothing more than dreams, unattainable ideals.

Nonetheless, Cha Eun Xiao acknowledged that an old adage rang true: "Different people have different aspirations."

Zuo Wuji\'s aspirations may have reached the zenith achievable for him.

Different people have different aspirations!

"You will succeed! Without a doubt!" Cha Eun Xiao declared sincerely.

Zuo Wuji responded confidently, "I know. It\'s a certainty!" Cha Eun Xiao was almost taken aback by his lack of modesty.
