………………………………I am the pure dividing line……………………………………
"Immortal Li, I have always believed one thing: no one would choose to become a blood-stained butcher when they have the chance to become a hero admired by all. Such people are often those who have not been given a choice in life," Zhao Hao said.
Whether human nature is inherently good or evil, people living in society inevitably face all kinds of gazes.
No one can truly ignore others' opinions.
And everyone hopes to gain others' recognition.
Even the most heinous villains must have thought, at the beginning, how wonderful it would be if they could become a hero admired by all.
Liking to be praised by others is a human nature.
Zhao Hao was like this.
Li Mochou was also like this.
But, fate played a cruel trick on her.
She did not achieve the admiration and respect of the world, but instead took another path—making the world fear her.
"Young man, you know too much," Li Mochou said.
Zhao Hao smiled faintly and said, "I do know quite a bit, but today, I have a great fortune to offer to Immortal Li."
Li Mochou laughed to the sky, a mocking look flashing in her eyes. "Offer me a great fortune? Even the Five Greats of the current martial world wouldn't dare say such a thing."
Li Mochou naturally had her reasons to be proud.
Although her martial arts were not as strong as the Five Greats, they could no longer give her much guidance in martial arts.
Because Li Mochou's martial arts had already reached a high level, and she had quietly forged her own path.
Zhao Hao, of course, was well aware of this. He said calmly, "What the Five Greats cannot do does not mean I cannot. At my age, even the five of them combined might not be my match."
In the current martial world, the Five Greats of Central Plains were still the most respected. Although Guo Jing later rose to prominence, he was still a junior. Moreover, although Guo Jing was known for his chivalry and had a great reputation, the martial arts he displayed did not surpass the level of the Five Greats.
Therefore, few people in the martial world dared to show disrespect to the Five Greats.
When Zhao Hao said this, not only did Li Mochou show surprise, but even Lu Liding and his wife were greatly shocked.
They had not expected that this calm and serene young man in a green robe was so arrogant inside.
Zhao Hao ignored their shock and continued to stare at Li Mochou. "If Immortal Li is willing to follow me and serve me for thirty years, I will offer you a great fortune. Unmatched martial arts and the admiration of thousands. You will be revered by all in the martial world, and the title 'Immortal of the Crimson Snake' will truly be deserved."
At this moment, Zhao Hao exuded an unparalleled confidence.
Zhao Hao's tone was not solemn, but Lu Liding and his wife subconsciously believed that Zhao Hao could indeed achieve this.
Li Mochou, however, remained unmoved after years of wandering the martial world.
"Do you know how many people I have killed so far?" Li Mochou asked, a complex look flashing in her eyes.
No one knew whether Li Mochou had ever regretted her choices.
But Li Mochou knew she had no way back.
Because over the years, the number of people, guilty or innocent, who had died at her hands was too great.
With the lives on her hands, she was certainly not worth sparing.
This was a dead end, at least in Li Mochou's view.
One misstep leads to eternal regret, and looking back, a hundred years have passed.
A prodigal son can turn back, but the 'Immortal of the Crimson Snake' could not.
Zhao Hao did not answer Li Mochou's question.
He did not know how many people Li Mochou had killed, nor did he need to know.
"Have you heard of Li Haoyang and Chen Dao?" Zhao Hao asked in return.
"The 'First Pervert of the World' Li Haoyang? The 'First Thief of the World' Chen Dao?" Li Mochou's expression changed.
Li Haoyang and Chen Dao's martial arts were far inferior to Li Mochou, but their fame in the martial world was no less than hers.
However, their reputations were not good, but rather infamous.
Compared to Li Mochou, these two were even more despised.
Li Haoyang was undoubtedly the greatest pervert in the world. He was not just a pervert but a complete deviant.
Ordinary perverts target beautiful women.
Not this man.
He not only liked beautiful women but also handsome young men, and even children under ten years old.
There are countless perverts in the world, but this man was undoubtedly the epitome of perversion.
Since he entered the martial world, the evil deeds he committed were too numerous to count.
Compared to ordinary perverts who only harm noblewomen, the handsome young men and even young children who suffered at Li Haoyang's hands were even more heartbreaking.
Such a deviant, even Li Mochou would have killed him on sight.
As for the 'First Thief of the World' Chen Dao, he was slightly stronger than Li Haoyang, but still a kindred spirit.
Anyone who can become the best in a certain field naturally has their unique qualities.
For example, Li Haoyang's perversion was unparalleled.
And Chen Dao was no less in this regard.
Others steal out of necessity or to rob the rich to help the poor. At worst, they want to gain without effort.
But Chen Dao was different.
Chen Dao came from a wealthy family with millions of assets. He did not need to worry about his fortune being insufficient for his entire life.
He learned lightness skills and became a thief just because it was "fun," "interesting," and "challenging."
He sought only excitement and did not steal valuable items like other thieves.
He loved stealing things that others cherished most, regardless of their value.
From the official seal of the government to the keepsake of a poor family, whenever he saw someone value something as their life, he liked to steal it.
Seeing others in deep sorrow gave him a special sense of joy.
How could such a person not be a deviant?
"Exactly, those two," Zhao Hao nodded.
Li Mochou's pupils contracted, finally realizing where this overly young and overly powerful man came from.
"According to what I know, Li Haoyang and Chen Dao have reformed and joined the Power Gang, and died fighting the Mongols. Those who were once harmed by them mostly forgave them when they learned that their bodies were no longer to be found," Li Mochou said slowly.
"They were not voluntarily joining the Power Gang but were forced. They did not die voluntarily but were also forced. However, before dying, Li Haoyang killed eighty-eight Mongol soldiers, and Chen Dao stole two secret military documents from the Mongols. They were certainly beyond redemption, but before dying, they at least somewhat alleviated their sins," Zhao Hao said.
"Who are you in the Power Gang?" Li Mochou asked in a deep voice.
"I am the founder of the Power Gang. Who do you think I am?" Zhao Hao smiled faintly.
Li Mochou finally gave up opposing this man.
It turned out to be the one who "Reigned Over the World."
