Resentment

“What, are you saying Ju Mang and I have to accept each other to have access to the complete version?”

“Precisely.”

“What’s Hou Tu’s ability?”

“You already saw it: mind control. I can take away the conscious of anyone my sand envelops.”

The reason Xiang Nan failed to fight off Hou Tu during the sealing was precisely because he couldn’t wrestle back control of his consciousness.

“Am I going to be as cold-blooded as you when I merge with Ju Mang?”

Xiang Nan shook his head. “I’m not cold-blooded. I just don’t want to dance to Third Heaven Palace’s tune any longer.”

“Hou Tu is the one who doesn’t want to be played like a fiddle. You and Third Heaven Palace haven’t even interacted. Hou Tu’s will is influencing you!”

“And what have they done for Shifu in return? They just bow their heads to Third Heaven Palace and blindly obey orders. Soon or later, they’ll only become Third Heaven Palace’s source of energy. I’m giving value to their deaths!”

“Shifu said to do what you believe is right. If you think it’s the right thing to do, do it. If you don’t think it’s the right thing to do, don’t do it.

“I have never forgotten that teaching, which is why I don’t see myself being wrong. I’m not in the wrong.”

“They have every right to choose how they go down. If you choose to go through with this, I will stop you. Shifu will recover his cultivation soon. We can overthrow Third Heaven Palace with Shifu’s help!”

“... Mu Yu, you are unaware of what happened at Moyun Mountains, aren’t you?” Xiang Nan asked in a frigid voice.

“What happened?”

“Celestial Prison has already been dismantled, yet Shifu is missing. Shifu can’t have recovered his cultivation because it hasn’t even been a year. If Third Heaven Palace has 50% of ownership to Celestial Prison and Shifu is still a Golden Core Realm cultivator, where do you think he is now?”

“Are you saying Shif-”

“Correct. Third Heaven Palace has already gone after Shifu. He no longer controls Celestial Prison.”
