Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

"I finally understand why Yue Mei identifies with you so much."

"After listening to your words, I deeply know that I am not worthy of being a leader."

"Being a leader is not something that can be achieved simply by being strong."

Mobas slowly raised his head and stared at Xiao Wei, his hoarse and low voice full of sincerity.

"I was the one who killed your brother. When this is over, I will let you do whatever you want. Even if you want me to be buried with your brother, I will never frown!"

"I just hope that you can maintain your sincerity and work hard for the reconciliation between the snake people and humans!"

"please!!!"

Xiao Ling stared blankly at Mobas who lowered his head to pray again, unable to recover for a long time.

At this moment, Mobas was truly awakened.

Thinking about it now, it was not just this time. There were many opportunities before when I could have made my people live a better life. However, because of my prejudice against humans, I destroyed all these opportunities without even realizing it.

As a leader, I have failed quite a bit.

Just as Mobas himself said, no matter how strong he is, he is not worthy of being the leader of the snake people!

When Yao Ye heard Mobas mention Xiao Yan, there was a deep complexity in his eyes when he looked at him.

If you had understood it before, Xiao Yan wouldn't have died.

Obviously it is a good thing that Mobas wakes up, but when he thinks of Xiao Yan, the more completely Mobas wakes up, the more Yao Ye feels pity for Xiao Yan.

At the same time, there is also blame towards oneself.

Xiao Wei looked at Mobas quietly, and after a long time, he smiled slightly.

This change in Mobas is an unexpected surprise.

At the same time, it also made Xiao Wei think of a guarantee that could make the plan go more smoothly.

"Chief Mobas, please raise your head." Xiao Yu said softly to Mobas who slowly raised his head, "Can I ask you for a favor?"

"Captain Xiao Jing, please speak! As long as it is something that I, Mobas, can do and does not harm the snake people, I will complete it even if it costs my life!"

Mobas responded in a solemn voice, causing Xiao Wei to laugh inwardly.

Indeed, as the other party's negotiator, Mobas's stubbornness is a real headache.

But as their own executor, the entire snake people probably can't find anyone more reliable than Mobas.

Being stubborn means not making unnecessary changes to the plan without authorization, and strictly following the plan agreed upon in advance.

As an executor, this is undoubtedly an extremely excellent quality.

"There is no need to risk your life, Chief Mobas."

Xiao Wei waved his hand lightly and stated his request.

"My sister should have known about my brother's death. She will bring the people from the Desert Iron Mercenary Group to seek revenge in the next two days."

Xiao Yi knew very well the character of his sister Xiao Li.

Xiao Li, whose temperament was not as calm as hers, would definitely not notice the problems in the report. In order to avenge Xiao Yan, she would definitely bring people to attack the territory of the snake people.

After hearing Xiao Ji's words, Mobas responded immediately in a solemn voice.

"I am willing to sacrifice my life to appease your sister's anger!"

"Ah, that's not necessary."

Xiao Wei waved his hand lightly, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.

"I just hope that when my sister brings people here, you can personally fight against them. Please fight as hard as you can without hurting their lives, and maintain your usual attitude of hating humanity."

When Xiao Wei said these calm words, Mobas and Yao Ye were stunned.

Is this something a real sister could say?

After a while, Mobas couldn't help asking.

"Why?"

"Secret~" Xiao Yu narrowed one eye mysteriously and chuckled, "It's not that I don't trust Chief Mobas, but there are some things that the fewer people who know about it, the better."

"When everything is over, you will know it naturally."

"Before that, I hope you can do as I ask."

Mobas said nothing and just looked at Xiao Wei quietly.

After a moment, he nodded deeply.

"I see."

Then Mobas stood up and walked towards the door. Before leaving, Xiao Yu whispered some instructions.

"Captain Mobas, I'll trouble you to seal the door."

"Ok?"

Hearing Xiao Ji's words, Mobas turned his head in confusion.

"Isn't this seal used by the underworld to restrict you? Why do you actively ask for it?"

"Hmm~~~ Your understanding is slightly wrong." Xiao Yu hummed softly and chuckled: "The seal at the door is more of a protection for me than a restriction."

Protect?

Mobas was even more confused.

According to Mobas's previous conjecture, the Yin World sealed it because it was afraid that Xiao Ji would cause a big disturbance in the Holy Land after Xiao Yan's death. But now it seems that this is not the case?

His brother was obviously dead, so why did Xiao Yu look so nonchalant?

Mobas couldn't figure it out.

Soon, he stopped thinking about it.

He has decided to trust Xiao Ji. If that's the case, he just needs to follow her instructions.

"I see."

Mobas nodded slightly and left the room. With a flash of red light on the door, a seal that could only be lifted by a Dou Wang level appeared at the door again.

Looking at the closed door, Xiao Ling whispered something after being silent for a long time.

"This is really a pleasant surprise."

The change in Mobas was something she had never expected.

As expected, there were many unexpected situations.

Xiao Wei frowned slightly and began to reflect on himself.

Mobas' transformation is undoubtedly a good thing.

But this time we were lucky, but we may not be so lucky next time. We must learn from this and never think that we have control over all the developments.

Otherwise, the consequences will inevitably be quite tragic.

"Then next, Your Highness Yaoye."

Xiao Ji turned his gaze to Yao Ye and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It's time for us to talk."

"According to the time calculation, you should have set out when the snake people were being attacked by unknown people."

"As the eldest princess of the Jia Ma Royal Family, you are doing everything you can to risk your life and go deep into the heart of the Snake Tribe to find me. In my guess, it can only be for one thing."

There was a sinister glimpse in Xiao Wei's eyes.

"The buyer information behind those slave traders, right?"

Chapter 174 Heartless

Inside the room, after listening to Yao Ye's information about the buyers behind the slave traders, Xiao Ji frowned.

After a while, Xiao Yu let out a breath, his tone quite melancholy.

"It is indeed the Yunlan Sect!"

"Sure enough?" Hearing Xiao Ling's words, Yao Ye was suddenly startled, "Did you already know this?"

"It's not accurate to say that I knew it a long time ago. To be more precise, I just guessed it before. After all, I couldn't find any evidence, so I couldn't make a rash judgment."

As Xiao Ji said this, he felt Qing Lin's arms around his waist finally relax. Xiao Ji reached out and gently supported Qing Lin's petite body, let her lie on the bed and covered her with a quilt. He patted Qing Lin's head gently, and came to sit down opposite Yao Ye while speaking.

"The Jiama royal family issued a decree prohibiting the slave trade a long time ago. If the Jiama Empire really intends to manipulate the slave trade, then the existence of this decree is unnecessary."

"What's more, if this matter is exposed, it means that the royal family is taking the lead in doing illegal things, which will be a huge blow to the image of the Gama royal family. At that time, not only will the snake people hate the Gama Empire twice as much, but even the citizens of the Gama Empire will distrust the royal family. Although the profit of the snake people's business is huge, it is completely not worth it for the Gama royal family."

"Since it's not the royal family, then it can only be another force."

"And the only force in the Gama Empire that can so disrespect the dignity of the Gama Imperial Family and make the Gama Empire turn a blind eye to this matter is the Yunlan Sect."

Yao Ye listened quietly to Xiao Wei's analysis, with layers of doubt rising in his heart.

Xiao Ji had long ago guessed that the unknown people who attacked the snake tribe belonged to the Yunlan Sect, and what he said was just to support her guess.

At this time, Xiao Wei looked at Yao Ye with serious eyes and said again.

"But, let me still say what I just said."

"Even if this is information confirmed by the royal family, it is of no help in this conflict between the Serpent People and humans, and it cannot clear the inherent impression of the Jiama royal family in the eyes of the Serpent People."

"This?! Why is this happening?" Yao Ye looked at Xiao Wei in confusion. "With the trust you have built with the Snake People, tell them all of this, they will surely understand!"

Looking at Yao Ye's anxious expression, Xiao Yu was silent for a while, and then spoke slowly.

"Your Highness Yaoye, please answer two questions for me." Xiao Jing raised his hand and gently raised a finger. "First, can you produce evidence that the Yunlan Sect is behind all these things?"

“Of course!” Yao Ye answered without hesitation: “The royal family has sorted out all the evidence of Yun Lan Sect’s crimes over the years! There may be omissions, but there is absolutely no injustice against Yun Lan Sect!”

Yao Ye said this with certainty, but Xiao Wei in front of her shook his head slightly.

"Your Highness Yaoye, the evidence I'm talking about is not the words written on paper, but real evidence that the snake people can see and believe with their own eyes." Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Yaoye, "Do you have this kind of evidence?"

"."

Xiao Wei's words made Yao Ye silent instantly.

At the same time, he immediately understood what Xiao Wei meant.

It is said that these are the evidences of crimes compiled by the royal family over the years, but in the final analysis, they are nothing more than words.

Anyone can write words, but what really gives the words their effectiveness is the credibility of the forces behind them.

In the Gama Empire, no citizen would doubt the information released by the royal family because the people trusted the royal family very much.

But for the Snake People, the credibility of the Gama Royal Family is not that high. In their eyes, these so-called evidences of guilt have no credibility at all, even if what is written on them is true.

Just as Yao Ye suddenly realized what was going on, Xiao Wei raised his second finger.

"Then the second question is, is Yunlan Sect a force affiliated with the Jiama Empire?"

".yes."

Yao Ye paused for a long while, but finally nodded.

No matter how many crimes the Yunlan Sect has committed, it is still a sect of the Jia Ma Empire, and this is an indisputable fact.

"Then Your Highness Yaoye, please think about it from another perspective. If you were a snakeman, and one day the Jiama royal family, who had always turned a blind eye to the slave trade, suddenly came to you and said that the previous invasion of the snakemen by the Jiama Empire was done by the Yunlan Sect of the country and had nothing to do with the royal family, would you believe it?"

"."

Xiao Wei's words silenced Yao Yegan again.

Yeah, how could it be possible to believe it?

Unless the snake people are a bunch of idiots who believe whatever you say!

At this moment, Yao Ye finally understood why his great-grandfather had never been able to resolve the issue of the snake people.

The royal family could not control the Yunlan Sect, so the Yunlan Sect secretly invaded the Snake People.

In the eyes of the Snake People, the Yunlan Sect and the royal family are in the same group. Even if they know that it was the Yunlan Sect who did it, the Snake People will think that it was condoned by the royal family.

In this incident, the royal family did not have any opportunity or position to explain.
