Chapter 245: A wise man submits to circumstances
Chapter 245: A wise man submits to circumstances
No grudge or enmity?
The Institute Director, barely containing his rage, looked at the composed Du Ge across from him.
You've poached my subordinates, set traps outside my door, severed my limbs, shaved my head, and drained the spiritual power I've painstakingly cultivated...
And you call this no grudge or enmity?
To hell with no grudge or enmity.
The Director roared, "Wang Chong, I can't coexist under the same sky with you, today it's either you or me..."
Du Ge blinked, shook his head, and said, "It's either me or you, Director. Have you really prepared yourself for such a noble sacrifice? Don't you want to see the supervisory institution grow and truly oversee the world?"
The Director fell silent.
"Director, you don't seem like a stubborn man!" Du Ge frowned slightly, "All the supervisory enforcers have figured it out, why can't you?"
The Director remained silent."Elder Zheng, how old is the Director?" Du Ge turned to ask.
"According to the supervisory institution's records, the Director is already 1,200 years old," Zheng Tingwen replied respectfully.
"How long can one live at the Body Fusion Realm?" Du Ge inquired further.
"At least 4,000 years," Zheng Tingwen said, glancing at the Director.
"To forsake over two thousand years of life for a cause, I admire you," Du Ge turned and solemnly bowed to the Director.
The Director's eyes twitched and he froze.
"Elder Zheng, find a scribe to record the Director's valiant and unyielding tale in the annals of the supervisory enforcers, detailing why and how he died, and the process of his death," Du Ge instructed Zheng Tingwen as he turned around.
Zheng Tingwen's brow twitched as he glanced at the Director, who was naked and limbless, and awkwardly responded, "Yes, Alliance Leader."
"Zheng Tingwen, if you damn well dare, I'll kill you," the Director, frantic and furious, slammed against the Forbidden seal, bellowing, "Even as a ghost, I won't let you off..."
He was truly on the verge of madness.
To die in such a manner, not only would his death be disgraceful, but future generations at the supervisory institution would likely see him as a joke!
Better to be infamous for eternity than to be a laughingstock!
Cruel!
Wang Chong is so cruel.
The Director glared at Wang Chong with eyes that wished to devour his flesh and skin.
...
Watching Zheng Tingwen stop in his tracks, Du Ge said, "Elder Zheng, go find a scribe and summon all the cultivators in the supervisory institution. Let's send off Director Liu Xuanmin on his final journey. In the future, on Director Liu's tombstone, write 'The last conservative, a stumbling block on the rise of the supervisory institution'..."
Zheng Tingwen nodded, looked at the Director with sympathy, and moved on.
The rest of the supervisory enforcers fell into silence.
At this moment.
They suddenly felt that the way Wang Chong had subdued them was indeed merciful.
Watching Zheng Tingwen leave, the Director could no longer keep his composure and bellowed, "Zheng Tingwen, stop, you stand right there." Seeing that he couldn't stop Zheng Tingwen, the Director desperately turned to Du Ge, "Wang Chong, I am willing to surrender, I am willing to surrender..."
"Elder Zheng, come back!" Du Ge, seeing the Director's defenses break, smiled and said, "A wise man submits to circumstances. Director, you truly are a hero of our times!"
Just now you were calling me the last conservative!
The Director's face turned as dark as ink, and he remained silent.
Du Ge shook his head and continued, "If the Director still refuses to surrender, I was planning to invite the citizens of the capital to see you off!"
"You..." The Director glared at Du Ge, took a deep breath, and said with disgust, "I'll surrender, no need for your petty schemes."
"What schemes are there in this world? There's only the suppression of strength and the cherishing of talent," Du Ge said, bowing again to the Director, "Director Liu, I couldn't bear to see your immense cultivation die as light as a feather. I had no choice but to resort to this strategy, please forgive me."
The Director was stunned.
"Elder Zheng is just following orders, don't blame him," Du Ge stood up straight and said earnestly, "Any resentment in your heart, just direct it at me. Today, it is Wang Chong who has offended you. If one day I die by your hand, I will have no complaints."
Nobility must be maintained.
Du Ge understood deeply that a true villain does not make it to the end; he always believed that only sincerity can win sincerity.
"What will you do with me?" the Director asked.
"I'll borrow your spiritual power for my growth," Du Ge glanced at him and said, "Today I borrow ten percent, and in the future, I'll return a hundred percent."
With that.
He reached his hand into the Forbidden area again, touching the Director's shoulder, and began to devour his spiritual power.
The Director's body shook violently, but this time he did not resist and even dispersed the arms he had formed with spiritual power.
Seeing the Director's lack of resistance, Du Ge turned to the supervisory institution's elders, "Who has spare clothes? Give the Director something to wear, lest my hand hurts him later..."
First the hand, then the clothes, the Director was shaken again, and suddenly realized that if he resisted now, Wang Chong might truly strike him down!
He had never believed in himself from the beginning!
It was Zheng Tingwen, who had just offended the Director, who took off his coat and came over to drape it over the Director.
However, he did not leave but stood by, explaining the Spiritual Power Mutual Aid Alliance to the Director.
And it was then that the Director understood why so many supervisory enforcers, despite being tormented by Wang Chong, were willing to stand by his side, and why Du Ge said he would return tenfold the spiritual power he borrowed?
So this was the root of it...
But now.
He's at the Body Fusion Realm?
To replenish his spiritual power, wouldn't he need to find cultivators of a higher realm, and those of a higher realm?
He turned his head sharply, looking at Du Ge, "Wang Chong, are you really going to take on those prestigious sects of Heaven's Path Institute?"
"What else? If I don't defeat them, how can I bring them into the supervisory system? I always keep my word..." Du Ge smiled and said, "Director, don't you want to see the day when the supervisory institution oversees all cultivators? Don't you want to see those great cultivators from the prestigious sects end up like you? It's delightful, shared joy is double joy!"
"Of course, I want to see it," the Director's face darkened, he sighed and shook his head, "But Wang Chong, do you realize how profound those great sects are?"
"Director, I come from the Seven Stars Sect. Two months ago, the Seven Stars Sect had only three people, three minor cultivators at the Qi Refining Stage," Du Ge said proudly of his background, "But now, I'm about to possess the cultivation of the Body Fusion Realm, with thirty at the Void Refinement Realm, over a hundred at the Divine Transformation Realm, and countless at the Elemental Infant and Golden Elixir stages. Do you think I have the ability to lead the supervisory institution to glory..."
"Wang Chong, all these forces you mentioned belong to the supervisory institution, right?" Feeling his spiritual power rapidly depleting, the Director's face showed even more helplessness, "As the Director, I dare not oppose them, and you, from Qi Refining to Body Fusion in two months, with such an unstable foundation, how can you dare to draw your sword against them?"
"If I dare to draw my sword against the supervisory institution, naturally I dare to draw it against them," Du Ge said confidently, "To me, there's no difference between the two, it's just a matter of how long it takes and how much effort is spent."
As he spoke.
Du Ge's Elemental Infant grew with the infusion of spiritual power, gradually merging with his body, and he felt his soul strengthening as well. He instinctively opened his personal interface.
Sure enough.
The number for mental power, which was originally just over 6,000, started to change rapidly, 6,500, 6,600, 6,700...
When his Elemental Infant fully merged with his body, the mental power number settled at 12,000.
This must be the method of soul tempering that Nan Youlong mentioned!
No wonder he didn't recommend possessing high-level cultivators at the start; these beings with mental power in the thousands, even if they lacked the ability to see through souls, possessing them was akin to courting death...
