"You…" Song Xuan looked at Wei Chen in disbelief. He stared at Wei Chen, who was looking down at him without any trace of mockery, provocation, or deceit.

"Do not tell me… you caused all of this just to make a point?" he asked, voicing what was on his mind.

"That is right… I just wanted to make a point."

… Inside the chat room …

Handsome Tall and Rich: [Note to self… do not argue with this bastard.]

Sword Dao Genius: [It is the first time I have seen someone beat the hell out of a Void Refining Realm expert and most of his people just to make a point.]

Jian Ganglie: [You say that as if you have never done that before, senior brother.]

Little Wealthy Demon: [This guy… offending a renowned general clan under the Vermilion Bird Dynasty just to make a point. His choice in life is very questionable. I do not know if he is brave or stupid.]

Drinking till Dawn: [Maybe it was the latter. *burp*]

….

Hearing the undisguised answer, Song Xuan could not help but laugh out loud.

"Hahahaha! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

The laughter was like the release of pent up anger, frustration, and regret, all mixed together. Tears welled up in his eyes.

Seeing his aged opponent laugh like a madman, Wei Chen was taken aback. Maybe he should not have slapped the guy's head so much after all.

"Oi, oi. Did your brain suddenly go bonkers? What is wrong with you?" Wei Chen asked cautiously.

Well, at least he did not kill the guy, right? Slapping someone's head until they developed brain damage should not be included in the penalty.

"Hahaha… there is nothing wrong with me… a bastard who does whatever he wants would not understand," Song Xuan said with a satisfied smile, then asked, "Let me ask you something… why are you doing this? Is it because of righteousness, or is there another reason?"

Wei Chen never thought that this guy would ask such a question. To be honest, he just wanted to reduce the death rate caused by people's own stupidity in this world. Educating people was a must, but explaining it to this guy would have been a hassle.

"I have my own reason. You do not need to know that," Wei Chen said.

"Heh… is it really because of a boring reason like wanting to preach to me that robbing is wrong?" Song Xuan probed.

"As I said, I have my own reason," Wei Chen replied, then continued. "As for your guess, no, I do not want to preach to anyone. I know that in this world, robbing is something that happens every day. People get robbed all over the world, and I do not think I am some kind of hero who should help them all. Looking after one's own wealth is a basic responsibility. It is just that…" He paused for a moment, thinking, then continued.

"Robbing is robbing, no matter the intent. Even those folks who claim to rob the rich to help the poor are still committing a wrongful act. Just do not dress it up as virtue or something noble. To me, it is disgusting and hypocritical, and it does not sit well with me."

"If you want to rob, then just say you are robbing. Phrasing it as something else that sounds nice makes me want to puke," Wei Chen said.

With that, Wei Chen turned toward the camera.

"And that's it, folks. If you are robbing people, just say you are robbing. But be prepared to get your ass kicked if you choose the wrong target. Do not be a hypocrite who dresses it up with words like virtue, or claims it belongs to the righteous path, or anything along those lines. It is disgusting," Wei Chen said with contempt as he waved his hand, as if trying to clear the disgust from the air.

"Also, if you phrase it as something nice and actually believe that nonsense, your logic will become twisted by it. The longer you believe it, the more you will turn into a twisted, logicless, brain-dead idiot," Wei Chen added.

… Inside the chat room …

Azure Sky Elder: [Nonsense! Something that should belong to virtue and righteousness must always belong to virtue! For example, an artifact that can increase power beyond one's cultivation. To prevent the world from becoming chaotic, such artifacts should belong to righteous hands, so we can be assured they will not be used for evil!]

Little Wealthy Demon: [Ah! It appears! A twisted, logicless, brain-dead idiot!]

Azure Sky Elder: [Mo Xingyao! Do not think your father can always protect you and your precious Thousand Treasure Pavilion! Your days are numbered!]

Handsome Tall and Rich: [Does that mean you also want to rob artifacts from me as well, since my reputation is not the best when it comes to women?]

Azure Sky Elder: [How could you say that? Young Master Ximen, those women should be honored to receive your love!]

Drinking till Dawn: [Hypocrite. *burp*]

…

On Wei Chen's side, he began to end the broadcast after getting his point across.

"That's it, folks. This was a special public broadcast. We will meet again at the Great Martial Exchange. See you!" Wei Chen waved his hand, and the connection was cut. The broadcast ended as all of the large screens disappeared.

After ending the broadcast, Wei Chen let out a sigh. This time, he had been so angry that he forgot himself a bit. He then looked around and saw that no one wanted any more trouble from him. Unhurriedly, he walked toward the side of the deck, preparing to go down.

"Wait…" Song Xuan called out to Wei Chen.

"What?" Wei Chen turned toward him.

"Do you not want this flying ark?" Song Xuan asked.

"To be honest, I do want it, but I do not know how to control it. I also do not think a flying ark this large only requires one pilot. Besides, I do not have the money to hire the crew for it," Wei Chen explained.

"Didn't you come here to rob?" Song Xuan asked.

"No. I came here to prove my point, and now I have achieved it," Wei Chen replied. This time, he did not wait for the other side to respond. He jumped onto his flying sword and controlled it to bring him down to ground level.

Wei Chen arrived on the ground and intended to store the pagoda in his storage space, since he had already reached half-step Soul Transformation. However, what he saw made him pause.

Several bodies were lying on the ground. Some were dead, while others were heavily injured. Yun Feng was panting heavily nearby.

When Yun Feng noticed that Wei Chen had finally come down from the flying ark, he let out a relieved smile.

"Brother Wei! Finally… did you win?" Yun Feng asked, clearly exhausted. He had been protecting the pagoda from those hyenas for quite some time and was on the verge of collapsing.

Seeing Yun Feng guarding the pagoda for him, Wei Chen could not help but smile.

This guy, even though he was an edgelord, was pretty loyal. Maybe this was a trait of the Heaven's Chosen.

With that thought, Wei Chen quickly opened the redeem shop UI, bought a spiritual qi recovery pill, and tossed it to Yun Feng.

"Here, eat it. It should help. Thanks for guarding the pagoda for me," Wei Chen said, then walked toward the pagoda.

Yun Feng looked at the golden pill in his hand. It was lustrous and emitted a rich herbal fragrance. Just smelling it brought a sense of freshness and rejuvenation.

While Yun Feng was amazed by the pill, the master inside the ring he wore was utterly shocked.

This pill carried clear traces of Pill Dao. It had been refined using peerless Alchemy Dao. He had never even seen such a pill, not even at the grand auctions during the Golden Age when he was still alive.

This pill, if he could consume it, would instantly heal the old injury in his soul. He was certain of it. His strength would return to its peak, even while he remained in the state of a soul.

This pill… this pill was like an opportunity bestowed by heaven upon him.

The question was how he could take it.

{Yun… er… I mean, disciple… th-this pill…} the master tried to speak, but at that moment, Wei Chen suddenly felt a strange and ominous sensation coming from Yun Feng. The master inside the ring immediately stopped all of his activity.

Wei Chen looked at Yun Feng for a moment, but he did not find anything odd, nor could he sense any malicious intent. Maybe it was just his imagination.

He then looked at Yun Feng's ring with suspicion.

{Hmm… could it be…} Wei Chen thought as he looked at Yun Feng's thumb ring.

Wei Chen stored the pagoda in his storage space, then slowly walked toward Yun Feng. His eyes remained locked onto the ring.

If the master were still alive, his back would already be drenched in cold sweat, because he knew that this damn agent of the underworld was eyeing him like a hawk watching its prey.
