EBE Chapter 523: Death has no regrets for the Dark Moon Clan!
Chapter 523: Death has no regrets for the Dark Moon Clan!
It wasn't that Chu Xinghe was overly arrogant; it was just that he genuinely didn't know how to lose this time.Damn it, I've already succeeded once... The resources from the Grand Prix are practically being handed to me for free, how could I possibly lose?
From a certain perspective, Ma Liang could be considered my inner demon, right?
I, Chu Xinghe, am someone who strives for excellence. Although I've been backstabbed once, twice... three times... a hundred times... countless times... I've never been someone who would be defeated by failure.
When facing difficulties, if you only think about running away, when will you ever succeed?
Today, if I back down from Ma Liang, what about the Ouyang Family tomorrow?
The day after, Mu Bai... the day after that, Feng Yuzheng... and the day after that, Wan Lin... and so on...
Alright... thinking about it this way, Chu Xinghe realized that in our Grand Sky Sect, apart from backstabbing dogs, there's damn near nothing normal, is there?
As the saying goes, as long as there are enough tricky maneuvers, difficulties will definitely outnumber solutions!
In this round, I'm the one in charge... Ma Liang is just an executor. I damn well blocked all possible paths to success, so tell me, how could I lose?
Ma Liang received the Great Elder's order immediately.
When he heard the news that he was to assist Senior Brother Xinghe in building the entire Barbarian Wilderness, Ma Liang was moved to tears.
I, Ma Liang, truly am Senior Brother Xinghe's most trusted confidant!
Even the Great Elder has acknowledged it. Such an important task has been entrusted to me, Ma Liang... However, despite his joy, Ma Liang didn't get too cocky.
Ma Liang only shared the details of this matter in great detail with over 3,800 fellow disciples.
Because Ma Liang knew that this public assignment from the Great Elder to assist Senior Brother Xinghe was actually a signal, a test for him.
Though I, Ma Liang, am known as Senior Brother Xinghe's top confidant, I know I have a long, long way to go to become the future Great Elder of the Grand Sky Sect.
There are countless others in the sect who want to compete with me, Ma Liang.
And if I, Ma Liang, can't prove myself in this matter, then I will surely disappoint the Great Elder and, even more so, Senior Brother Xinghe.
I, Ma Liang, am not someone who lets Senior Brother Xinghe down. I'm someone who constantly brings surprises to Senior Brother Xinghe. This time, I, Ma Liang, will use facts to show everyone that when it comes to assisting Senior Brother Xinghe, the gap between you and me, Ma Liang, is still incredibly vast!
Not daring to slack off in the slightest, Ma Liang almost immediately drafted a future development plan for the Barbarian Wilderness based on his experience from the Blazing Sun Star Spirit Beast Grand Prix.
Early the next morning, Ma Liang found Senior Brother Xinghe and presented the future development plan for the Barbarian Wilderness to him.
Taking the development plan Ma Liang handed over, Chu Xinghe only needed a glance to know... this guy Ma Liang really has some skills.
Just look at the various plans on this development plan...
Each one would definitely make the sect a fortune, and we have no idea how Ma Liang's brain works, but overnight, he came up with so many bizarre ideas?
For example, charging registration fees from participants, Ma Liang, do you have any shame?
You make a killing with registration fees, and you tell me how I could possibly lose money?
So almost immediately, Chu Xinghe completely rejected the plan Ma Liang had worked on overnight.
Ma Liang looked at Senior Brother Xinghe with a bewildered expression. Although this plan was something Ma Liang had cobbled together overnight, the various contents were the result of Ma Liang consulting and researching with countless people.
And now, not a single point was approved?
But Ma Liang didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, Senior Brother Xinghe is such a visionary person. Since Senior Brother Xinghe rejected his plan, he must have a more perfect plan in mind.
Soon, Ma Liang learned what Senior Brother Xinghe's plan was.
First, Senior Brother Xinghe clearly warned him that there must be no registration fees.
Senior Brother Xinghe stated that our Grand Sky Sect is the number one sect in the world, and our future goal is to become the Holy Land of Grand Sky... Now, because of a few measly coins, we charge registration fees, you tell me, if word gets out, won't our Grand Sky Sect lose face?
Regarding this scolding from Senior Brother Xinghe, Ma Liang found it entirely justified.
It was my narrow-mindedness... My starting point was just to think about how to make the sect earn more.
But thinking carefully, Senior Brother Xinghe is right. Our Grand Sky Sect is destined to become the Holy Land of Grand Sky in the future.
Yet now we're quibbling over registration fees, how is that different from some shameless Yun Sect?
Indeed, Senior Brother Xinghe's perspective on things is far beyond what I, Ma Liang, can compare to.
Ma Liang hurriedly recorded this in detail... but as he wrote, Ma Liang realized... isn't Senior Brother Xinghe's plan somewhat too outrageous?
First... all competitions are only allowed to be held in Spirit Beast City?
Well... Senior Brother Xinghe... we agreed to develop the entire Barbarian Wilderness, if competitions are only held in Spirit Beast City, how will other cities attract people?
Then... the prize money continues to increase?
Senior Brother Xinghe, you know that after this Grand Prix, those forces that received the prize money are all acting like nouveau riche, everyone says the Grand Sky Sect's prize money is too generous...
And now we're increasing it further? Senior Brother Xinghe, isn't this a bit too outrageous?
The most outrageous thing is the last point, Senior Brother Xinghe, you suddenly say that our Grand Sky Sect disciples won't participate in the future, what the hell is that?
Why don't we just give away resources regularly... is there even a need to hold the Spirit Beast Grand Prix?
Looking at Senior Brother Xinghe's various demands, Ma Liang felt like his brain was going to explode...
Because Ma Liang couldn't understand at all, according to Senior Brother Xinghe's requirements, it all seems like a huge loss for us.
It seems like there's no way we could possibly make a profit.
Seeing Ma Liang so pessimistic, Chu Xinghe was filled with joy... this time... it's solid!
After throwing the problem to Ma Liang, Chu Xinghe didn't idle around either. After the three-day banquet in Spirit Beast City ended, everyone from the Grand Sky Sect, except for Ma Liang who needed to continue preparing for the next Spirit Beast Grand Prix, returned to the sect.
In the Grand Sky Sect, within the Dark Moon Palace.
The Great Sage ordered the entire Dark Moon Palace to be sealed off, even Wei Buhui, a staunch disciple of the Dark Moon Palace, had to temporarily stay at the Artifact Refining Palace.
After sending everyone away, the Dark Moon Clan, who had been anxiously waiting for days, were moved to tears.
Do you know what our Dark Moon Clan has been going through these past few days?
Since the day we got this little toy, Zhu Peng, our Dark Moon Clan has been dreaming of starting the game immediately.
However, because the Ghost Snake Mark might have some unknown factors, for safety's sake, we waited until we got home to start this little game.
Our Dark Moon Clan has been in utter despair these past few days!
And now, our Dark Moon Clan can finally start the game happily!
The Great Sage was the first to walk up to Zhu Peng, who was full of question marks, and looked at him with joy.
Although the Dark Moon Clan hadn't started the game these past few days, they hadn't been idle.
The Dark Moon Clan had engaged in fierce discussions over who would die first, resulting in over eighty minor skirmishes, over twenty major battles, and three complete wipeouts...
Throughout the discussion process, there were over two thousand deaths.
Yet, the final discussion didn't yield a sequence, and in the end, the Great Sage personally settled the matter for the entire Dark Moon Clan.
The Great Sage knew that the reason everyone wanted to be first was mainly because the Ghost Snake Mark didn't allow for unlimited resurrections.
It depended on how many times the snake spirit bound to Zhu Peng could resurrect him.
What if the snake spirit suddenly stopped resurrecting Zhu Peng later, and no one could play anymore?
But the Great Sage had no choice; after all, there was only one Zhu Peng, so for the sake of the Dark Moon Clan's unity, the Great Sage decided to go first...
The Dark Moon Clan: "..."
With the Great Sage confirmed to go first, the first Dark Moon Clan Life Exchange Conference was held as scheduled.
When Zhu Peng was brought out, he wasn't worried at all. Although the Dark Moon Clan had previously acted like lunatics, expressing their willingness to die first, even fighting over the chance to die first.
But in Zhu Peng's view, that was just a small trick of the Grand Sky Sect.
It was just an act for him to see.
You tell me, is there anyone in this world who isn't afraid of death?
So they were just trying to scare him!
How could I, Zhu Peng, be easily scared by you?
But just as Zhu Peng was thinking, "You don't have to pretend anymore, I've seen through you," the Great Sage, full of excitement, stepped out from the Dark Moon Clan.
Then, with a smile, he walked up to Zhu Peng.
The next moment, just as Zhu Peng was wondering if the other party would torture him first, the Great Sage showed Zhu Peng that when it comes to torture, the Dark Moon Clan doesn't bother; they only play with death, never torture!
A gleaming blade pierced through Zhu Peng's heart, and Zhu Peng was completely stunned as he looked at the Great Sage of the Dark Moon Clan who had personally pierced his heart.
But just as Zhu Peng's life force was about to dissipate, the Ghost Snake Mark on his forehead suddenly began to glow. In the next second, the mark transformed into a small snake that emerged from Zhu Peng's forehead and burrowed into the Great Sage's forehead.
In his final moments, Zhu Peng heard the surrounding Dark Moon Clan members cheering.
"Wow! It really can curse!"
"This is so interesting! The Great Sage should die soon, right?"
"Great Sage... is this death painful? Tell us before you die!"
"This is interesting... so interesting... let me try it next time!"
"Get lost... if anyone's trying, it's me, not you!"
"An Lan, don't think that just because your cultivation level is high, I'm afraid of you... I must die before you!"
"If anyone's dying, it's me..."
"I'll die... I'll die..."
Feeling his life force gradually fading, Zhu Peng was left with countless questions... What kind of place is this... Lord Snake Spirit... save me...
Whether it was Zhu Peng's call for help that worked, in a mysterious space, a powerful snake spirit shrouded in darkness slowly opened its eyes.
"A bunch of lowly humans dare to kill my servant! Today, I shall let you taste the fear of death from my Snake Spirit Clan!"
