Chapter 1627: Chapter 1367 Saint Bandits: What is Your Relationship_2 Chapter 1627: Chapter 1367 Saint Bandits: What is Your Relationship_2 “If that's the case, may we change the deal?”
Jiang Hao was surprised, “What is it?”
He had thought that if this deal didn't work, the other party would either try to persuade the Heavenly Note Sect or resort to using force.
The Saint Bandits, in pursuit of their grand ideals, certainly wouldn't just defer to some strong individual's wishes.
As long as there was a way, they would strive to achieve it.
To say they were unscrupulous wouldn't be an exaggeration; after all, in the face of grand ideals, it only made sense to sacrifice a few individuals.
“I cannot leave, but the members of the Saint Bandits need guidance.” The Saint Bandits sincerely looked at Jiang Hao:
“I want you to take over the Saint Bandits for me, until I can leave.
“In the meantime, you can use them for whatever you wish, but you must do one thing.
“Pass on the Sky-locking Power.”
“The Sky-locking Power?” Jiang Hao was somewhat taken aback.
“You should know that the Saint Bandits can steal the innate talents of others.
“Not just me, but also those who follow me.
“They have learned an alternative version of Heaven Lock, but to master it, they need the Sky-locking Power.
“With such power, they can set up the corresponding formations and ask for it from the heavens and the earth.
“Sure, what they get in the end is far less than Heaven Lock, but it allows them to intervene in many matters.
“But with the Sky-locking Power, their progress would be much faster.” The Saint Bandits looked at Jiang Hao:
“You don't have to do much, just give them some strength.
“They can do many things for you.
“How about it?”
Jiang Hao did not hesitate and shook his head, “This matter is too significant; I, a junior, cannot bear it.”
It would mean binding himself to the entire Saint Bandits, and if the Saint Bandits didn't emerge, he would then be the Saint Bandits.
Whatever the Saint Bandits did would ultimately fall on his shoulders.
The world's rejection would become increasingly severe.
He knew Heaven Lock but had never thought about using Heaven Lock to change the world.
He simply regarded Heaven Lock as a formidable technique.
He had already steered clear of the Shangguan family, let alone the Saint Bandits.
They were not of sound mind.
What if they became fixated on him?
The consequences were unpredictable.
The small girl and the others were troublesome enough; adding a Saint Bandits with grand ambitions and ideals was unthinkable.
It was like merely wanting to be a common man, but these people intended to crown you emperor.
How terrifying that would be.
Eventually, if he was not of one heart with them, yet they were loyally devoted to him, neither killing nor sparing them would be right.
He did not wish to bear such torment.
The Saint Bandits looked at the person before him, “Do you need anything?”
Jiang Hao thought for a moment and said, “Perhaps what I need most is peace.”
“Peace?” The Saint Bandits seemed puzzled.
“Yes, as a junior with weak cultivation and little experience in cultivation, what I need the most is a peaceful time,
“Especially in this grand era, stability is needed even more.” Jiang Hao spoke truthfully.
The Saint Bandits looked at Jiang Hao for a long time:
“I thought you were similar to the Human Emperor, but now it seems you are more like the senior next to you.
“But do you really think what you know can bring peace?
“You possess unique and outstanding fortune, you have mastered the Moon-Slaying saber technique, you can use Heaven Lock, and not only that, but you have also opened the path of immortality, unprecedented in history.
“Heaven and Earth seem to want to reject you, but at the same time, they wish to favor you.
“Sometimes it's not just about whether you want to isolate yourself from the world, but whether the many other races agree.
“Especially since you've become acquainted with that powerful being from the Blood Demon, you are even more embroiled in the grand era.
“Just throwing out a Tao Fruit is hardly enough,
“Wait until the dust settles, someone will come looking for you.”
No, they won't; if they really do, then just throw out another one.
Jiang Hao thought to himself, considering he still had one more Dao fruit.
Moreover, the strife caused by one Dao fruit definitely won't be short-lived.
Just a few hundred years should suffice; by then, he should be able to reach the Peak of Immortal.
The only uncertainty was his enlightenment of the Tao.
“You will come out eventually, senior, so why cling to these things?” Jiang Hao asked.
The Saint Bandits looked up at the sky, “The unique and outstanding person has already ascended, her Heavenly Spirit has solidified, and her future self could be a threat.
“I am doomed never to be at the forefront, but you, who have grasped Heaven Lock early on,
“May be the hope to break the stalemate.”
“Since her ascension is a threat, why didn't you stop her, senior?” Jiang Hao asked.
Upon hearing this, the Saint Bandits laughed, “What is my ideal?”
“A world where all is as one?” Jiang Hao asked.
“Yes, a world where all is as one. If I can't even tolerate a single Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment, how can I achieve a world where all is as one?” The Saint Bandits retorted.
“But she is a thorn on your path, senior,” Jiang Hao said.
“Hard to say, she might end up being an asset to my path just like the Human Emperor,” the Saint Bandits said with a smile.
Jiang Hao understood the other's point of view.
The Human Emperor would let the Saint Bandits follow his own Tao and not obstruct it, but only if the world was stable enough.
“Doesn't senior also believe that Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishment is occupying a huge portion of innate talents?” Jiang Hao asked again.
Hearing this, the Saint Bandits laughed, sipping tea:
“In a world where all is as one, everyone has the potential to pursue the Tao.
“Innate talents are not limited to cultivation or race.
“The dragon race can achieve greatness with the essence of their blood and flesh, bringing innate power with them.
“But such a path is too narrow and uniform.
“You never see the dragon race delving into Kendo or the way of the saber.
“But people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion can.
“And they know too much: the way of scholars, law, agriculture, warfare.
“Yet none of these can lead to the Tao.
“They can only start with cultivation, and the vast majority of people are unable to cultivate.
“Even if they understand these matters and master them, they can't make a name for themselves in the heavens and the earth.
“Breaking racial barriers, a world where all is as one.
“The dragon race could embrace the way of scholars, warfare, and law, not limited by racial bloodlines, breaking through bloodline limits.
“No need to limit themselves to just producing an Ancestral Dragon.
“And people from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion would also have more opportunities to chase the ultimate.
“Likewise, the populations of the many other races would be as numerous as those from the Heavenly Joy Pavilion, without a definitive ceiling.”
Jiang Hao nodded, saying: “Wouldn't that cause chaos in the world?”
