I am a full-level celestial master, you let me enter the strange talk of rules?
Chapter 1786 If we're talking about true "greed," the chairman probably can't ev
Under the chairman's continuous and gentle energy nourishment, after a while, the boy with the single white eye regained some color in his pale face, and his weak breathing gradually stabilized, but he remained unconscious and obviously needed time to recover.
The chairman carefully handed the boy with the single white eye, who had regained some vitality, to the three children who were somewhat at a loss, and instructed them, "Keep an eye on him and let him rest well."
Although the three children were mischievous, when they saw the boy with one white eye suddenly faint and sensed the chairman's serious tone, they all nodded obediently and sat around the boy with one white eye.
After making the arrangements, the chairman immediately stood up, grabbed Zhang Yangqing's arm, his expression solemn yet filled with barely suppressed excitement, and hurriedly pulled him to the edge of the woods away from the children.
Before the chairman could even speak, Zhang Yangqing seemed to have read his mind, shook his head, and said decisively, "No."
The chairman was suddenly stunned. The words that were about to come out were abruptly cut off. The expression on his face, which was a mixture of excitement and calculation, froze instantly, turning into astonishment and disbelief. His eyes clearly said: How did you know what I was going to say? I hadn't even opened my mouth yet!
Seeing the chairman's bewildered expression, Zhang Yangqing smiled helplessly, a smile that carried a knowing understanding of the world and a subtle, almost imperceptible warning.
He slowly spoke, "Are you thinking that this kid possesses such heaven-defying spatial talent, and if you could bring him out of the Undying Mountain, take him as your disciple, and nurture him with all your resources, he would surely become your most powerful trump card and fighting force in the future, and even the entire Malek Group? You might even be able to use him to glimpse the mysteries of spatial rules?"
The chairman's pupils contracted slightly. Zhang Yangqing's words had almost perfectly captured his deepest and most fervent thoughts! The strategic significance of having a disciple with spatial talent was immeasurable!
However, Zhang Yangqing's next words were like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing the fiery thoughts that had just been ignited in him.
"But have you considered whether you, or rather our original world, can bear the 'cause and effect' on him?"
Zhang Yangqing's tone became serious.
"Our original world had its own stable system of rules and order, and there was also an invisible 'divine punishment' that monitored the world. The rules of space are one of the most fundamental laws that constitute the world. A change in one part affects the whole."
Even with his current weak abilities, he has already triggered such a backlash. If he were to grow, cultivate, and use his abilities in our world, and lose control, or unintentionally trigger some forbidden spatial nodes, he could incur a backlash from the rules or even divine punishment.
Zhang Yangqing paused, his gaze sharpening as he looked at the chairman, asking each word clearly, "The consequences will be devastating. At that time, not only you and I, but the entire Marek Group, and even the foundation and sphere of influence you have built up over many years, may be buried along with the karma he has created! Can you bear this responsibility, this risk?"
These words struck the chairman like a thunderclap.
He had only seen the unlimited potential and benefits brought by the single-eyed white boy's talent, but subconsciously ignored the enormous risks that accompanied this potential, risks that could destroy everything!
Yes, such extraordinary power is not so easy to control or bear. One wrong move and it's all over!
Thinking of the inevitable and irresistible divine punishment that might befall them, and the scene of the entire Marek Foundation being reduced to ashes, the chairman felt as if he had been doused with a bucket of ice water. His initial enthusiasm and excitement instantly cooled down, replaced by a deep chill and lingering fear.
He opened his mouth, but in the end he couldn't say anything. He just lowered his head in silence, his face full of struggle and solemnity.
Seeing his expression, Zhang Yangqing knew that he had already grasped the implications.
Some opportunities may be seen, but one may not have the life to seize them.
The chairman eventually listened to advice.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the burning greed in his heart, and reason regained its advantage. He understood that Zhang Yangqing was right; the value of these children lay in their role within the Undying Mountain, and gaining their favor would be helpful for the current mission of finding the Undying Tree.
Before he came, Zhang Yangqing had warned him not to be too greedy. But people are often like that; they say they are not greedy, but that's just because they haven't encountered anything that truly moves them.
Even a powerful figure like the chairman, who wields immense influence and possesses unparalleled strength in the outside world, will still encounter temptations within this mysterious Undying Mountain that could stir his heart and even cause him to lose his composure.
Isn't this just a test?
Moreover, they encountered a test as soon as they arrived at the Undying Mountain, and almost lost their composure.
To be honest, given Zhang Yangqing's position and personality, he didn't really care whether the chairman actually wanted to take the child out.
After all, he would leave this world of supernatural tales sooner or later, and he didn't really care whether the original world would collapse because of a space ability user.
But he can't start that.
Once the chairman has tasted the sweetness of "taking it away" this time and formed a habitual way of thinking, then he may have the idea of "maybe I can take it away" whenever he encounters anything that seems valuable.
Without knowing the specific causal relationship between the Undying Mountain and the external rules, the risks of such behavior are unknown and potentially extremely high.
Zhang Yangqing's dissuasion was not out of a desire to protect the original world, but rather based on a desire to avoid uncontrollable risks.
His method of dissuading people was also very clever.
He didn't say directly, "I don't want to cause trouble" or "Don't make things difficult for me," because that would have backfired.
Instead, from the chairman's perspective, he analyzed the pros and cons for him, emphasizing the unknown disasters and chaos that bringing the boy with the single white eye back might cause, and depicting the consequences as extremely serious.
He adopted an attitude of "I'm doing this entirely for your sake, for the good of your Marek Group."
A proud chairman who values his own business is more likely to listen to such arguments.
Moreover, when it comes to true "greed," the chairman is probably no match for Zhang Yangqing.
Don't forget, Zhang Yangqing's identity in the world of supernatural tales this time is "mysterious"!
One of the most terrifying abilities of the Weird is its ability to devour and merge the characteristics and even organs of other creatures!
To put it bluntly, if Zhang Yangqing wanted to, he could easily get his hands on the white eyeball of the one-eyed boy that contained spatial power, and fuse it with the strange primal power. At that time, he might be able to directly activate spatial power himself!
The reason he didn't do that wasn't out of any kindness.
Zhang Yangqing has never been a kind person in the traditional sense. In the world of ghost stories, his primary principle is to survive and seek answers. There is no worldly right or wrong here.
Rather, it was because he had deeper considerations. (End of Chapter)
