In this world, there are always two kinds of people.
One kind’s life purpose is not to simply exist, but to burn brightly.
The other kind forever just watches others burn, letting others’ light illuminate themselves.
Yue Fei is undoubtedly the first kind of person. Read complete version only at NoveI[F]ire.net
And there are far too many of the second kind, as numerous as fish crossing a river.
However, now Jiang Dali has also become the first kind of person.
He became the first kind, not because he needed to prove himself, or needed to burn.
But because, after he did something he considered not so earth-shattering, it caused an earth-shattering effect, igniting the flames in everyone’s hearts, and the light illuminated everyone’s spirit.
When he burned up the Ying country’s army’s grain and forced General Jing Shen to his death, the fire he started achieved great brightness that awakened the fighting spirit in many of Song Country’s soldiers and Martial World people.
Following Jue Wushen’s death and the fall of No God Absolute Palace, the entire Song Country Martial World admired and thanked him.
This fire, fanned by the Black Wind, has only burned brighter and stronger.
Making Black Wind’s name spread across the four nations, with the potential to fully ignite.
"What are your plans next?"
On the grand wall of No God Absolute Palace, Dongfang Bubai in a flowing red robe looked at the players scurrying frantically below like hyenas, and spoke lightly.
Jiang Dali stood nearby with arms crossed, his tattered Black Cloak fluttering in the wind, and calmly said, "This is actually what I was going to ask you. What are your plans? Do you no longer care about your Divine Sect?"
Dongfang Bubai’s lips curled into a subtle smile, saying, "I asked you first. Not the other way around. It’s because you asked me this way that I replied."
These words were indeed true.
If someone in the Martial World spoke to Dongfang Bubai , they wouldn’t receive such a response but rather a few silver needles.
Yet, there were not many in the Martial World who dared to speak to Dongfang Bubai in this manner.
Jiang Dali was one of them, the only one qualified to speak to Dongfang .
What was terrifying about Dongfang Bubai was that he wasn’t insane but quite clear-headed.
Reaching this stage, he was only concerned with his personal preferences.
As for how his subordinates or the Sun and Moon Divine Sect were faring, he was completely indifferent.
Such calm arrogance from an authoritarian, this is what made Dongfang Bubai truly chilling.
Yet for someone to be recognized by him, that was another matter entirely.
He said lightly, "My objectives in Ying Country have been mostly achieved, the Orochi is the world’s fastest, most venomous Fallen Divine Beast, after obtaining its molted skin, I ground it into powder, applied it to myself, and used special medicine.
That’s why my power surged, reaching the Heavenly Human 5th Realm now.
The breakthrough in power realm is just one aspect.
Another is that my Sunflower True Qi also carries the toxin of the Orochi, my movement speed has also become much faster, yet to advance further now might bring disaster.
I’m not confident, so I will return to seclusion for a period, and meanwhile, seek another Sunflower Master."
Jiang Dali was surprised, "Another Sunflower Master? Who is it?"
Dongfang Bubai, "Did you forget I told you before, the Sunflower Treasure Book was initially cultivated by a man and a woman, divided into Qian Kun Two Chapters.
The old eunuch from Ming Country was one of the men, and there was a woman, now not sure where she is hiding.
In fact, when the Sunflower Treasure Book reaches the final realm, it is after the Heavenly Person Transformation that it reverses human nature, physiology, and emotions, so that woman might not be a woman now, possibly a masculine man."
Jiang Dali was taken aback upon hearing this, examining the alluring Dongfang Bubai, "What about you? You are..."
Dongfang Bubai’s lips curled into a small smile, nonchalantly glanced at Jiang Dali, instead of answering, asked, "You haven’t said your plans yet."
Jiang Dali suspiciously withdrew his gaze, looked at the players busily working below, and said, "My purpose in coming to Ying Country this time is to strengthen my Black Wind Village’s reputation and status in Song Country.
Now everything has been a resounding success, from now on, Black Wind Village will be renowned in Song Country, and my aim has been achieved.
But only Song Country is not enough..."
Dongfang Bubai brushed his hair aside, looking at the Divine Phoenix and Demon Hawk playfully chasing in the night sky, said languidly, "In the talks and laughter of imperial achievements, not outdone by a mortal life’s intoxication.
Your ambition to conquer remains as strong as ever, you’ve gained so much territory, yet I haven’t seen you manage them well, it seems... you’ve always been chasing something?"
At the last words, he tilted his head, gaze fixed on Jiang Dali, "The Holy Dynasty suppresses the world, you’re not of the royal family, can’t form a nation, what is it that you really want?"
Jiang Dali’s wild eyes shone brightly with spirit, "The Holy Dynasty, how much do you really know about it? Haven’t you ever thought why the Holy Dynasty can suppress all vassal states? Control the entire world? Haven’t you thought, to overthrow it?"
Dongfang Bubai was slightly startled, revealing shock in his eyes for the first time.
Jiang Dali’s rebuttal surprised him.
Ordinary people born in a country,
Might never think about overthrowing it in a lifetime.
Even in his past ambitions, at most, he only thought to command the Martial Arts.
But seldom thought about the court, let alone the distant, high-above Holy Dynasty.
But Jiang Dali’s words now, revealed some astonishing ambition.
Dongfang Bubai was shocked, yet strangely excited.
This excitement, once also birthed during the journey with that person to Feng’s Clan.
