Chapter 531 White Lotus

Murong Ji nodded and said softly: "If there is anyone in the Nasen Guard who is more sober, it is you, Elena."

After he finished speaking, Murong Ji walked outside. "Lustful thoughts are certainly unpleasant, and there is a saying that 'lust is the root of all evil'. Among all lusts, lust is the worst. If you indulge in it, it can ruin a person. So, lust is like a knife hanging over your head."

"However, lust is not entirely useless. When a person is emotionally aroused, the innate Qi will also sprout. When two people have intercourse, the innate Qi will continue to entangle, and that is the starting point of life."

"Lust has another function, which is to make people face reality. Whether it can be controlled is another question. Before it happens, you will be a devil, but after it, you will be as holy as Buddha. Once one desire is gone, all other desires will disappear."

"That brief moment of comfort is enough to make people think about a lot of things, don't you think, Elena?"

Elena didn't quite understand what Murong Ji said, but she knew that the person in front of her was not someone she could control.

He lowered his head and thought carefully. Seeing Murong Ji was about to leave the hall, his heart sank and he quickly followed him.

"Where are you going? I'll go with you."

Murong Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Elena. At this moment, she seemed like a holy believer, without a trace of distracting thoughts in her eyes.

"I have too many targets." Murong Ji looked up at the sky. It was already afternoon and almost dusk. At night, Behemoth would most likely come to the island again. "And time is running out."

"The first target is Besdia, can you take me to him?"

Elena was a little surprised and asked uncertainly: "What are you going to do?"

"It won't hurt him, just to make sure of some things."

Time passed quickly and the sky became completely dark.

Murong Ji looked at the file folder in his hand, flipping through the pages one by one. After making sure there was no problem, he took out his cell phone.

Looking at the list Zhao Fangxu gave him, he slowly said, "There are only two people left."

Elena raised her lips slightly, "Who is it? Is it Alfonso?"

Murong Ji nodded, "Yes, he is there. The other one is Li Muxuan, my main target for coming to Nasen Island."

"So are we going to find Alfonso now?" Elena moved her feet slightly. She and Murong Ji always kept a certain distance, neither too far nor too close, so that people would not feel alienated, nor too close.

"Go find Li Muxuan." Murong Ji glanced at Elena, and seeing her reaching out her hand, he grabbed her soft hand. The space around the two of them distorted, and when they appeared again, they were on a hill.

Looking down, there were two people fighting, Zhang Chulan and Li Muxuan.

Murong Ji frowned slightly, but did not rush to attack. Looking at the fighting styles of the two, Zhang Chulan suffered a great loss in combat experience.

After a few moves, he was caught by Li Muxuan.

"Why don't you go down and help them...that Li Muxuan is not easy to get along with." Elena's voice sounded softly in her ears, like a breeze blowing on the face, making people feel calm.

Murong Ji did not answer, but just looked down quietly.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise, and Murong Ji looked in the direction where the sound came from. A flash of fire rose there, and then it fell into darkness again.

Not long after, Elena's expression changed. Looking in the direction of the palace, a tear instantly rolled down her face.

"Guna, dead."

Murong Ji did not interrupt, but just looked at Zhang Chulan and others below quietly, "Li Muxuan has been captured by Zhang Chulan, and the next step is to make a scene."

Then he took out his cell phone and called out, "Er Zhuang."

The next moment, an emoticon appeared on the screen of the mobile phone, and it blinked. Murong Ji was speechless, thinking of Gao Erzhuang's age.

It's understandable that he's a little naughty when he's in high spirits. What's more, in a sense, he can be considered as his apprentice.

Then he said, "Contact Zhang Chulan and the others later and ask them to get involved in the future operations."

Er Zhuang said, "Oh, Lao Xiao Hei Guan'er and a few people from Quan Xing have completed their missions. We are unable to contact you and report on the progress of the mission."

"understood."

After ending the call, Murong Ji turned around, grabbed Elena's hand, and said, "Go find Alfonso."

Elena regained her holy and flawless appearance, but her tone was still a little choked: "You don't care about them?"

Murong Ji looked back and said, "Go find Alfonso."

The two of them flashed and disappeared on the spot.

Appearing in the hall again, Murong Ji took a quick look, confirmed Alfonso's location, and walked towards him.

"Stop!" Elijah raised his gun towards Murong Ji. Thinking of his methods, the gun seemed useless. However, he was unwilling to give in and froze there for a moment.

"It's okay, he won't hurt you, he's just trying to get to know you." Elena's words made the two of them let down their guard. Alfonso glanced at the three of them, then let Murong Ji put the big blue hand on his head.

Not long after, Murong Ji turned his head and looked at Elijah again. The big blue hand pressed down on his head.

Elijah:"……"

He forced himself not to resist, and when Murong Ji finished, he didn't react at all. He slowly exhaled, looked at Murong Ji's departing back, and continued to ponder.

Murong Ji walked towards the sacred tree, remaining silent along the way.

Suddenly, Elena asked, "Is Nason Island really hopeless?"

Murong Ji paused, "Is there any need to save it? For thousands of years, Nasen has never developed. Is it really because of the restrictions of various countries? Do you know the real reason?"

Elena suddenly fell silent and stopped talking, seeming to be thinking.

"It's because of the territory. No matter how powerful the sacred tree is, it can't cross the sea. That's what the emperor had in mind back then."

"What was the original name of the sacred tree? Holy Forest. Just by hearing the name, you can tell how prosperous it is. What a pity..."

"By the way, I asked a question before, what is the real reason for falling behind?"

Elena was a little dazed and murmured, "Because of evil and ignorance."

"Yes, because of evil, it becomes more foolish. Because of ignorance, it becomes more evil." Murong Ji narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, [The sacred tree has never felt pity for the people of the gods.]

What kind of mentality does he have towards ordinary people now? Even if he pays more attention, he can't let go of that high-handed attitude.

There was no way. His body and soul were much stronger than theirs. Even though he was consciously restraining himself, he couldn't put himself on the same platform with them.

Returning to the sacred tree again, King Nathan was still helping the Nathan guards share their pain.

Murong Ji found a seat and took a look at the group messages with Zhao Fangxu and others on his phone. Mr. Huang was reporting on the situation of those who had boarded the ship.

Murong Ji thought for a moment and replied, "It may be an infectious disease. They are isolated from the world, and some common viruses are fatal to them."

"Where can I find a doctor on this ship..." Huang Bairen paused, then said: "Brother Murong, can you take a look and prescribe some medicine... It will be enough to last for a few days..."

Murong Ji: "You brought it. Grind the Guiyuan Pill into powder and mix it into water according to the proportion."

After finishing the things at hand, Murong Ji began to try to sense the existence of the formation. The aura on Nasen Island was actually not weak.

It's just that no one knows how to use it. When he came here for the first time, Murong Ji was shocked by this formation with a completely different style. After studying it thoroughly, it was just so-so.

After a few hours, Murong Ji finally breathed a sigh of relief after he had adjusted the formation.

There were bursts of gunfire outside, and lights gathered from all over Nason Island.

Murong Ji looked up and found that the holy light magic was really incredible... He had obtained everything he wanted to harvest, and only the essence of the sacred tree was left.

Murong Ji took a step towards the sacred tree. Elena wanted to stop him, but then she remembered her choice. She felt very painful and her face was no longer so holy...

"It's good to feel pain, it means you are not numb yet." Murong Ji pushed Elena away, walked in front of King Nathan, and looked at her quietly.

King Nathan's face was covered in sweat, his expression was distorted, and most of the pain of the guards was borne by her. "Can you... can you..."

"cannot!"

Murong Ji walked up to the sacred tree and checked its remaining energy. "There must be some left, otherwise I won't be able to fool those people."

I took out a white jade bead from behind the tree. There was a faint golden light above the jade bead, which made it look quite extraordinary.

Screams continued to be heard outside. Murong Ji walked up to King Nasen and asked, "The situation is hopeless. Do you want to come with me?"

King Nathan was stunned, "No, I want to die with my people."

"Huh?! Little girl... you have a good character, what a pity." Murong Ji squatted in front of King Nathan, pointed at the sacred tree, and said softly: "This tree is not worth it."

"There is an old Chinese saying, 'A traitor appears loyal, appears simple and unsophisticated, but is cunning and deceitful inside.' This kind of person will uphold justice, kindness and other beautiful appearances, but do disgusting and despicable things."

"What you saw was the sacred tree protecting its people, right? What I saw was it absorbing people's innate Qi, the most fundamental thing."

"If it's a fair deal, and you know the secrets and are willing to do it, then it's fine and not evil. But if you control people's innate mission and thoughts, then it's not just a matter of evil."

Murong Ji stood up and was about to say something more when the sound of footsteps became clearer.

Turning around, Elijah walked in with Behemoth's men.

Looking at the three people in the field, Elijah pointed at them and said, "I don't need to tell you, you also know the importance of the woman in the middle."
