Mo Tianji nodded.
“Yes.
Hurhur… If even you, the Nine Tribulations Sword Master whose high morality reaches up to the clouds, are unable to do something so selfless, then… would that Lord Dharma Supreme really be able to? Isn’t that the biggest joke of the century!”

“So I don’t believe it one bit!” Mo Tianji said, “In this story which you related, at the point where the Dharma Supreme suddenly appointed Diwu Qingrou as the main commander-in-charge… I even suspected that this Dharma Supreme whom you speak of is exactly that person who plotted everything back then… Diwu Chouchang! And not some Lou Wenlong!”

Chu Yang’s countenance changed drastically.
All of a sudden, he stopped right where he was, totally dumbstruck.

On the other side, Mo Tianji, who was in the midst of speeding forward, also did the same — The Master of Calculation and Manipulation had been shocked by his own deduction!

When those words had left his mouth, they were nothing but just a vague hypothesis of Mo Tianji’s.
But in this instant of saying it, Mo Tianji felt as if his brain had been struck by lightning!

He was utterly astounded by his own words!

In the frigid chill of the night breeze, the two of them stood in the wind, feeling as though they had plummeted into an icy pit.

They exchanged a look, both discovering the deep iciness in each other’s eyes.

Both of them thought of that story at the same time.

The story narrated by the Dharma Supreme, which Chu Yang had eavesdropped on and then related to Mo Tianji.

Chu Yang hadn’t left out even a single word.

It was indeed like that.

Back then, Diwu Chouchang had been the first to suggest this solution.
And subsequently, the Diwu Clan was ranked fifth among the Nine Super Clans!

In other words, Diwu Chouchang had also ranked fifth among the Nine Tribulations!

Back then, the establishment of the Nine Super Clans had been according to the ranking.
The Nine Tribulations nourishing the Heavens naturally also needed to follow the brothers’ ranking.
There were nine holes in total; in that case, who was the person in the fifth hole?

Diwu Chouchang!

It could only be Diwu Chouchang!

In this instant, neither Chu Yang nor Mo Tianji spoke.

Even though this was only a conjecture which Mo Tianji had blurted out, this conjecture was incomparably close to the truth! Both Chu Yang and Mo Tianji felt this in their gut — This time, an unexpected word of exchange had revealed the truth of the matter!

All of these had been planned by Diwu Chouchang, who then benefitted, escaped and ultimately… became the Dharma Supreme! And then controlling everything in the world and going against the Nine Tribulations Sword Master…

While the law-enforcement officers, who were originally supposed to be assisting the Nine Tribulations Sword Master, suddenly became bitter enemies with the Nine Tribulations Sword Master!

This change could also truly be explained at this point.

That was why the Dharma Supreme had suddenly suggested that Diwu Qingrou be the commander-in-chief! It was because… Diwu Chouchang and Diwu Qingrou had the same goal — To let the Diwu Clan prosper!

The night breeze was cold and imposing, yet the hearts of these two men were filled with crashing tumultuous waves.

Should it really be Diwu Chouchang, then this was no grand revenge in the name of justice and righteousness, but… a complete head to toe betrayal! He was the only person who had truly made use of all his brothers and everything they had done for his own interests.

Mo Tianji took a deep breath.
“The Dharma Supreme… Since he has given this chance to Diwu Qingrou, with Diwu’s wit, he would naturally realize that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Diwu Clan! Therefore, he would inevitably grab it…”

Chu Yang also suppressed the torrential waves in his heart.

This wasn’t the time to discuss Diwu Chouchang but Diwu Qingrou instead.

“However, even though Diwu Qingrou is occupying such a high position, due to his background, he is unable to receive the corresponding authority — Because he doesn’t have any foundation.”

“The disadvantage of ascending to heaven in one step is being thoroughly exhibited to its limit on Diwu Qingrou right now!”

Mo Tianji said.

Chu Yang nodded slowly.
Indeed, people frequently used ‘ascending to heaven in one step’ to describe the luckiest person whom they wished the deepest to become.

Yet they didn’t know that ascending to heaven in one step was not a positive thing.
When a regular mortal ascended to heaven in one step and reached the celestial realm, his outcome was that he would be ridded of in the shortest time possible.

When someone new from the bottommost tier ascended to heaven in one step to become someone of authority standing at the highest pinnacle — such as a prime minister or a great general — his outcome would also end up being outcasted until it led to his death!

Because he doesn’t have the experience of occupying such a high position at all.
Moreover, all those holding high positions, which of them was easy to get along with? They would never give him the chance and time to learn and get used to things.

Right now, Mo Tianji using ‘ascending to heaven in one step’ to describe Diwu Qingrou’s current circumstances was incredibly apt!

Indeed, Diwu Qingrou was likely facing such an awkward situation right now.

“Diwu Qingrou’s one and only advantage is that the Dharma Supreme is supporting him at the back…” Mo Tianji said, “If not for the Dharma Supreme personally nominating him, no matter how intelligent Diwu Qingrou is, he would also have ended up as a pile of bleached bones long ago, even if we don’t do anything at all right now.”

Chu Yang nodded slowly.

Mo Tianji made extreme sense.

What the two of them didn’t know was that what Mo Tianji was saying right now was practically as if he was seeing it for himself with his own eyes — All these were precisely what Diwu Qingrou was truly experiencing! And in truth, it was also exactly as what Mo Tianji had said — If not for the Dharma Supreme nominating him, Diwu Qingrou, the commander-in-chief who had popped out of nowhere, would have been reduced to a pile of bleached bones long ago even if he had a hundred thousand lives right now!
