Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 909
Chapter 909: Their Respective Journeys
A’Ji inhaled the cold air.
“This is very difficult, but I like it!”
He scratched his ears and cheeks as he racked his brains.
However, after racking his brains for a long time, he was still scratching his ears and cheeks.
“As expected, there’s no other way?”
Su Mulian sighed. “I realize that this is something impossible as well.”
“No, it’s possible.”
A’Ji suddenly said, “Sister Mulian, if you’ve heard the story of ‘a deer is a horse,’ you should know that whether or not a person’s words can be trusted and obeyed by others does not depend on the truth of the words, but on the status and power of the person.
“If a man on the street points to the sky and says that the sun is square, he will naturally be ridiculed by everyone. He might even be arrested and sent to a mental hospital.
“However, if they are the supreme experts who sit on the throne of supremacy and command all the troops in the world and follow the rules of the world, saying that the sun is square, who in the world would dare to say the word ’round?’ Chances are that the linguists will have to recompile their dictionaries and exchange the definitions of ‘square’ and ’round.’
“By the same logic, who would have the patience to listen to the ‘secret manual of wealth’ if they were penniless and imparted to them?
“And the ‘success study’ that a billionaire casually spouted would be sought after by millions of people, and many people would be willing to spend real money to learn it.
“If it were a super-billionaire, I’m afraid that even a fart would become the motto of countless people.
“A certain great hero with outstanding battle achievements is actually an unpardonable great devil. Such words from the current Sister Mulian are naturally not convincing at all. But what if it was from the mouth of Battle God Lei Zongchao? What if there is also the endorsement of all the Deity Realm experts in Dragon City? The difference in persuasiveness is like heaven and earth!”
Su Mulian suddenly understood.
“So, if I want everyone to believe me, I have to have… a higher status and a stronger power?”
Su Mulian frowned and said, “But I don’t know anything about this. I only know how to transfer injuries and only have a strong self-healing ability. Even the most basic martial techniques are common!”
“Well, everyone has their own unique advantages. Instead of copying others and learning from others, it’s better to find a way to maximize your advantages!”
A’Ji shook his head and said in an old-fashioned manner, “Sister Mulian has the strongest healing technique in Dragon City. To tens of thousands of ordinary citizens, you are a living bodhisattva who saves the suffering. You are the unmistakable Saintess of Dragon City. This image is your most precious wealth and the strongest power.
“Next, we just need to continue to strengthen this irreplaceable image!
“Of course, if I Were you, I would have to actively interact with the higher-ups as well as treat the ordinary citizens.
“I’ve heard that many Deity Realm experts were seriously injured in the final battle at the monsters’ lair. It’s very likely that their realms will be lost.
“After such a long time, I believe that they have exhausted all the most advanced medical methods. However, I’ve never heard of any peerless experts who could return to their peak. One or two of them are still in seclusion for a long time!
“I believe that they must be as anxious as ants on a hot pot right now. They are willing to do whatever they can to save their lives, right?
“Even if Sister Mulian can’t cure them completely, as long as you can help them even a little bit, even if you can only slow down the decline of their power a little bit so that they can deal with the issue of the transfer of power more calmly, I believe that these Deity Realm experts will be deeply grateful and trust you.
“As long as you can become the personal doctor of these Deity Realm experts, you’ll have a chance to exert subtle influence on the issue of the transfer of power and form a ‘good relationship’vwith their successors. In the near future, you’ll be rewarded handsomely!”
Su Mulian came to a sudden realization.
“That’s right. I should start with these seriously injured Deity Realm experts who have fallen…”
She muttered to herself and felt that something was wrong. She looked at A’Ji suspiciously. “How did you know about such an important matter? Moreover, your analysis was so… thorough.”
“Well, everyone knows that Deity Realm experts are injured. The news has long spread throughout the city!”
A’Ji quickly changed the topic. He patted his chest and said, “As for the lack of martial strength, Sister Mulian doesn’t have to worry at all. If you can’t do it, you still have me!”
“You—”
Su Mulian looked at A’Ji, who looked like a green bean sprout, and could not help but laugh.
“Don’t look down on people.”
A’Ji sniffed and bit his lip. “It won’t be long before I surprise all of you!”
“Okay, then I’ll wait and see what you and Dragon City will look like in the future…”
Flames were surging in Su Mulian’s eyes.
At this moment, the entire fleet changed their direction and changed their formation.
The ship that was originally leading the fleet caught up with them.
Across the swift river, Lu Siya and Su Mulian exchanged glances.
Both of them turned their heads at the same time.
“A’Ji…”
Lu Siya waved at the leper youth across from her and said, “Long time no see. Come and have a chat with your sister?”
She ordered the boat to move closer to the stern and stretched out the springboard.
“Ah? Oh…”
A’Ji was reluctant, but there was nothing he could do.
Seeing this, Su Mulian frowned deeply.
“A’Ji, there’s something I’ve been wondering about. Are you close to Lu Siya? Why do you always follow her every time you see her?”
“Well, not really. It’s just that…”
There was something that this woman could use against him.
Before he had the chance to kill her, what else could he do but listen to her obediently?
“I will give you a piece of advice as your ‘sister.'”
Seeing his troubled expression, Su Mulian did not want to get to the bottom of it. She could only say, “Stay away from her. She’s very dangerous.”
“It can’t be, right?”
A’Ji was slightly startled. “Sister Siya… No, although Lu Siya’s style is overbearing and she has the title of Queen Bee in the circle, she still treats her friends well.
“Moreover, ever since Meng Chao saved her life, she seems to be deeply moved by Meng Chao’s spirit and has the intention of inheriting Meng Chao’s will.
“During this period of time, she has worked tirelessly on all sides and has done a lot of things for the ordinary citizens of Dragon City.
“She also worked actively to promote the collaboration between the nine mega corporations and Superstar Resource, the Lair gang, Broken Star Club, Blue Home, and the Red Dragon Army, which made the major forces of Dragon City increasingly united.
“Now, the ordinary citizens like her more and more, and the insiders have a higher evaluation of her. They think that the Queen Bee has washed away the aggressive atmosphere of the past, and she will definitely become Dragon City’s pillar in the future.
“Sister Mulian, are you still… brooding about her a little because of, uh, brother Meng Chao?”
A’Ji felt that there was an invisible… tension between the auras these two women.
It was a natural conflict, and that was probably what it meant.
“It has nothing to do with Meng Chao. Believe me, Lu Siya is the most dangerous woman in the world.”
Su Mulian’s expression was serious as she seriously said, “If you insist on going over, at least remember, always remember, don’t believe anything she says, don’t believe a word she says, or else…”
A’Ji said, “Or else what?”
“…Forget it, it’s nothing.”
Su Mulian could feel that Lu Siya’s gaze was once again on her.
As if sensing her hostility, the Queen Bee’s gaze was filled with suspicion and wariness.
She waved her hand in annoyance and said to A’Ji, “You can go. Be careful and remember what your sister said!”
A’Ji jumped onto Lu Siya’s ship.
Su Mulian also returned to her cabin below the deck.
She locked the cabin door behind her.
Then, with a muffled groan, she could no longer suppress the volcano-like pain in her body and fell to the ground.
She had transferred the pain of countless people into her own body.
However, even if everyone’s pain was added together, it could not be compared to the demonic fire that burned her brain and soul day and night.
She curled up like a fetus and convulsed silently for a long time before she gradually regained her calm.
Her eyes, in contrast, looked completely different from the past.
In the past, she had been like an ancient root sculpture. Although she was doing the good deed of saving people, she had a faint indifference and alienation, as though she was indifferent to the entire world.
Now, her eyes resembled the hardest crystals, shining with an unshakable brilliance.
“Meng Chao…”
The girl who was called the Saintess by countless ordinary citizens trapped in darkness, sickness, and near despair, looked at her hands that were no longer trembling. She firmly swore, word by word, “No matter how tortuous the road ahead is, no matter how slim the hope is, no matter how high the price I have to pay, no matter what kind of end I meet, I will never…
“Let you destroy Dragon City!”
