Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 1221: Chapter 289: Chen Jie: It’s My Turn to Make a Move!

”Alright everyone, the victors of the first round, please gather at the main platform now!”

The competition ended quickly, and at this moment, the host, Lord Wuxiang, shouted, after which the victors of this match, a total of fifty-six people, gathered at the central platform.

After they left, the people they defeated remained, lying all over the ground: the wounded Jianghu people clutching their wounds, crying in pain.

The White Deer Army did not care about them, and there were no corresponding support personnel from the Jianghu side, so a group of people there continued to cry out in pain, the screams incessant.

Some with lighter injuries, who could still move, or those with brothers, supported each other to stand up, but many were too severely wounded, unable to care for themselves, lying there entirely, awaiting fate’s decision.

Seeing these screaming fellows, Master Kudu, sitting on the podium, felt deep compassion, at this moment chanting a Buddha title: ”Amitabha Buddha!”

He closed his eyes with unbearable sorrow.

Though he wanted to save these Jianghu people, in the end, he found himself powerless, able only to chant a Buddha title and lament, what can be done!

This is the grand scheme; although he is nobly ranked fifth on the Heavenly List, a peak-level figure, he remains helpless in the face of thousands wounded, at this point, he gazes towards Ruyang King and speaks: ”Prince, Heaven has the virtue of ensuring all lives are treated well, can you not lend a hand?”

Ruyang King, hearing this, looked at the esteemed Master Kudu before him and said: ”Master, I have a word, unsure if I should say it or not!”

”Please speak, Prince!”

”If I heal them, will they be grateful to me and repay me with virtue rather than enmity in the future?”

Ruyang King asked.

Master Kudu replied: ”Buddha says sow good causes to reap good effects, Prince, by treating others with sincerity, others will surely repay the Prince abundantly.”

Ruyang King replied: ”Even if they are enemies, will they be swayed by my sincerity?”

Master Kudu said: ”Naturally, human hearts are of flesh and blood, not intractably rigid.”

Ruyang King laughed heartily and said: ”Master, you jest, our Daqian, after establishing the nation, allocates a substantial sum annually to your Shaolin Temple, as well as Wudang, yet you take our money and oppose us everywhere, does this count as repaying virtue with enmity, as being influenced by us?”

Saying this, Ruyang King laughed heartily: ”So, Master, human hearts are ghostly lands, not something Buddha could even verbalize easily; even Buddha himself might not truly know what the human heart is like, huh?”

After hearing this, Master Kudu’s face became strange, after quite a while, he pressed his hands together and chanted a Buddha title: ”Amitabha Buddha!”

Seeing Master Kudu in this state, Ruyang King said: ”Master, do you think what I said is correct?”

Upon these words, Master Kudu said: ”Individuals have their karmas, I can’t persuade the Prince, so I will not speak further.”

At this moment, Song Yuanqiao beside him said: ”Prince, what the Master said holds truth, we Jianghu people are also the people of Daqian, you, as a Prince of Daqian, how can you see us dying without aiding.”

Ruyang King said: ”They were injured not by me, take for example your three juniors, when dealing with these people, they didn’t hold back at all.”

”It’s you who wounded them, now you want me to heal them, Hero Song, don’t you find that laughable?”

”You!”

Song Yuanqiao was infuriated by Ruyang King’s words, Song Yuanqiao, an honest man, just and upright, in terms of eloquence is far inferior to this old hand who has mingled in the officialdom for many years, Ruyang King, huh.

After saying this, Ruyang King looked at Hero Song and said: ”Hero Song, if you don’t wish for them to be harmed, you can go down and save them yourself, my Prince’s Mansion can give the Hero some golden sore medicine.”

”Also, next time, instruct your juniors to go easy, especially your Seventh Junior Brother, he is truly too heavy-handed!”

Ruyang King was referring to Wudang’s Mo Shenggu, Song Yuanqiao, hearing this, remained silent, among his three junior brothers, their temperaments indeed varied greatly, Zhang CuiShan, the Fifth Hero, gentle by nature, exceptionally talented, a true prodigy.

While the Sixth Junior Yin Liting, was of a gentle disposition, not too ostentatious, and even established an alliance with Emei for Wudang.

The most troublesome is this Seventh Brother, Mo Shenggu.

Hot-tempered as fire, ruthless in action, if given the chance, his temperament must be well cultivated.

Thinking like this, at this time, he saw the fifty-six people on the platform had already arrived here.

At this moment, Lord Wuxiang said: ”Next, we will draw lots to decide the first Challenger to get on the platform.”

Saying this, Lord Wuxiang said: ”Everyone, these are fifty-six sticks with numbers one to fifty-six on them, they are your recently won numbers, thus the one who completed the match first, Wudang’s Zhang CuiShan, Fifth Hero Zhang, will be the first Challenger holder, and others may challenge him freely, if Fifth Hero Zhang can win consecutively against seven people, he will advance to the third round.”

Hearing this, Wudang’s Mo Shenggu asked: ”What if, after my Fifth Brother goes up, no one challenges him?”

Lord Wuxiang said: ”Then Fifth Hero Zhang can choose freely, he can point at anyone below, and they must face him, otherwise, they will be regarded as having conceded.”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement, so it was like this.

Thinking this, everyone understood the competition rules, then Lord Wuxiang said: ”You have thirty minutes to adjust and rest, the fight will start soon.”

After speaking, Lord Wuxiang withdrew, and everyone took out a Tai Sui Pill from their pockets and swallowed it, chewing it quickly, the pill was consumed in no time.
