Gu Han was stumped upon hearing this, but he returned to stroking his beard and agreeing. “Indeed.” As expected, Jun Mo Xie sees incisively.

Jun Mo Xie continued. “You said it earlier, with your death, you won’t see anything that will happen in the future. If that’s the case, why do you need to worry about how the world will be after your death? I serve the country while I’m alive, exhausting and devoting every single bit of myself! But why do I still need to worry about what will happen to the world after I’ve passed?”

Gu Han jolted, snapping off a lock of his beard. This Jun Mo Xie! I had just agreed with you, then you start going on a different tune. I really don’t know whether to laugh or cry at the way this guy works!

“Besides, you are all dying for the sake of protecting your honor, your pride! Isn’t that so? In this world, there are people dying in this manner everyday. If the wife has an affair and cuckolds the husband, in a fit of anger, he goes and pick a fight with the adulterer for his pride. Isn’t it also for the sake of protecting his pride when he ultimately dies? Is there any difference between the two?”

Jun Mo Xie continued. “Since everyone is doing it for their own pride, their own honor, for making sure that their own interests are not compromised. There is nothing different about it, right? Why must I sing some praises for your deaths? Could it be at a few heartfelt praises of mine… will turn you all into immortals?”

Gu Han trembled with anger, his beard quivering on his face that had turned blue.

If it wasn’t because the time and place were truly unsuitable, Gu Han really wanted to have a battle to death with Jun Mo Xie!

He’s ridiculing us!

Our glorious deaths for the sake of the lives of this world receive the same kind of remark that cuckolded men get! This is plain bullying! Unacceptable and outrageous!

“Jun! Mo! Xie!!” Gu Han yelled while panting heavily, a sinister look in his eyes.

“Old Gu, you’ve lost your composure.” Jun Mo Xie kindheartedly reminded.

“I’ve lost my composure… I’ve lost my composure your head!” Gu Han panted in big breaths. “You darned rascal can drive people to their graves by opening your mouth! You’re truly driving me to my grave!”

It had to be mentioned that having a sharp tongue was not this Old Gu’s forte.

Although his entire face turned red from anger, he couldn’t come up with that many vulgar terms.

Jun Mo Xie was about to open his mouth when Gu Han suddenly stretched his hand and stopped him while catching his breath. “Don’t! Please don’t speak first, wait for this old man to finish speaking before you go ahead.”

Jun Mo Xie was perplexed. What’s going on, why is he speaking so politely…

“Aside from the war, there is another threat that remains! Zhan Lun Hui! This person is not dead!” Gu Han finally calmed down after catching a couple of deep breaths. It was the first time in three thousand years that his emotions became this agitated.

He wasn’t this furious when he found out that Zhan Lun Hui had stolen the Nine Illusory Quicksand.

“Regardless of whether the three Holy Lands exist after this war, you must be wary of Zhan Lun Hui!” Gu Han soothed his breathing and said. “And, the Nine Illusory Quicksand, this thing has tremendous effects on the spirit. And Zhan Lun Hui has stolen it in such great quantity. If you meet him… you must be careful! Absolutely do not be… complacent! How terrifying Zhan Kuang is is still not what you can imagine with your current level!”

Jun Mo Xie remained silent for a while before replying. “Thanks!”

“Thanks for nothing!” Gu Han snapped angrily. “It is already a great blessing that you did not drive me to my death earlier…”

“But I wonder if Senior’s emotions are still as agitated as before?” Jun Mo Xie asked, winking.

Gu Han chuckled helplessly. “I understand your intentions. You were thinking of infuriating this old man so that I could vent it out and reduce my wish to die, isn’t it? But you’ve wasted your efforts, and I’ve also been angered by you in vain.”

He let out a long sigh and said desolately. “The legacy of the three Holy Lands have gone on for ten thousands of years. It is the fruit of the labor of countless people. I led the three Holy Lands for two lifetimes, for five thousand years! And the Heaven Saint Palace of the three Holy Lands can be said to be where all my efforts went into! The Pillar of Heavens Mountains collapsed, the Heaven Saint Palace is destroyed, I fell from peak levels to where I am now… At this point in time, I feel that this is where my life ends! You do not need to say anymore.”

“You’ve gotten it wrong. I did not say that I wish to stop you from dying, ah!” Jun Mo Xie paused for a while before continuing. “I only wished to ask something of you.”

“Ask something of me? How rare! Speak!” Gu Han said.

“The atmosphere of the three Holy Lands is a little too depressed and pessimistic. Gu Han, look at your men. All of them look like they’re carrying a volcano, oozing with the urge to battle and die any moment!” Jun Mo Xie said coldly.

“Indeed, this is the spirit that we should have while desiring to sacrifice our lives for the continent! Don’t tell me there is something wrong about this?” Gu Han replied.

“I am not trying to doubt your determination, and not asking for you all to give up on your wish for death. But I wish to request of you all that if you really want to die, please die after maximizing your greatest worth!”

“Gu Han, including you, every one of you from the three Holy Lands harbors the same thinking. Then, let me ask you, when the battle begins, how many experts from the three Holy Lands will be rushing to self-detonating?”

Gu Han was stunned.

Indeed, just as Jun Mo Xie said, many people from the Holy Lands were thinking of this. The moment the battle started, they’d charge into the strange races’ troops and self-detonate! A quick death! Killing the enemies as a form of redemption!

“With the strength of a Saint Emperor expert, they’d definitely be able to kill hundreds of strange races with ease and more than ten Hell Enduring Ghosts; they can even kill off a couple of Frenzy Blade Enduring Earths! Then self-detonate, and drag more along with them. If they immediately self-detonate the moment they go into battle, don’t you find it a little wasteful?”

Jun Mo Xie continued apathetically. “If you really want to die, you must die after maximizing your greatest worth! If you can kill ten thousand before dying, why do you have to self-detonate only after killing a hundred? Since you’ve decided to fight to your death, why don’t you maximize your greatest worth before you go?!

“So I only ask that you all go onto battle with a regular state of mind! Only when there is really no way out, there is no other way, then self-detonate!”

Jun Mo Xie rolled his eyes and stared coldly. “Don’t think that I’m heartless! I did not only say this to you all; I also said this to my brothers, and even to myself! Because this is not only your battle, but also ours! If we’re talking about dying, with the current number of people left from the three Holy Lands, you’re merely a handful when compared to us!

“Death is possible for anyone in this battle! It could be that everyone else dies and I remain alive! But it can also be that all of our men die but the ones who survived are your men from the Holy Lands! This is something that cannot be determined! The matter depends on the individual, but our fate lies in the hands of the Heavens!

“Old Gu, you’ve lived for five thousand years; you should understand the brutality of war better than I do! War has always been like this. There has never been someone who said this person definitely will not die in this battle, and that person really did not die! Instead, he may just be the first one to die! The one who dies the fastest! So please don’t entrust me with the funeral arrangements. I may not necessarily survive. Who knows, I may still need to rely on you to help me collect my corpse.

“En, perhaps there may not be any corpse, because if I am destined to die, I will definitely drag a few more enemies along with me right before I die, so as to lessen some burden for you all! I hope that you all will be able to do the same. At least, don’t go on a mass self-detonation display session for some bullcr*p honor for the three Holy Lands! If I wanted to watch a fireworks display, it’s not worth it for me to come all the way here for it!”

Jun Mo Xie looked at Gu Han coldly and spoke indifferently. “So I beg of you, please don’t die so foolishly, please don’t die this idiotically! Because if that’s the case, even if you die, I will still look down on you!

“Even if you commit suicide to atone for your mistakes after we’ve won, I will definitely not stop you. But in this battle where hope is bleak, please fight with all your strength and don’t rush to self-detonate! Understood?!”

Gu Han was completely stumped.

Indeed, all of them felt hopeless about this battle. At least, for those from the three Holy Lands, which was why they all made up their minds to die for a good cause. But could he deny what Jun Mo Xie said? On what basis could he confirm that Jun Mo Xie, Tian Fa, and the Evil Monarch Manor would not die?

A wake-up call!

I’ve already become so pessimistic that I wished to hand all responsibility to Jun Mo Xie and close my eyes for eternity! This is an extremely irresponsible and selfish thing to do!

“Turns out… Turns out I am wrong! I almost made another serious mistake!” Gu Han sighed guiltily. He felt ashamed! He still felt valiant about his own decision earlier, but right now, he realized that he was a complete and thorough fool! The one who had never taken the bigger picture into consideration was himself and everyone from the three Holy Lands!

“Death is an extremely easy task. Everything is over when you close your eyes. But there are still things in this world that are more cruel than death! Do not ever think that death will solve all your troubles. Only cowards escape by dying! And all of you right now are a bunch of cowards who are itching to escape your responsibilities through death!”

Gu Han began to perspire, feeling his heart beat faster.

“If you do not have anything else to say, our discussion shall end here. I still have many arrangements awaiting me! And as to you, Old Gu, I sincerely hope that you can go, comfort, and convince all your suicidal cowards to wake up!”
