Capital; an Innocent Man Bears the Guilt of Possessing a Treasure
It's like if an ordinary person were to stand next to a nuclear bomb, even if the bomb doesn't explode, they would still be terrified.
This has nothing to do with courage; it's purely a subconscious psychological behavior.
As a result, under this psychological influence, everyone subconsciously moved away from the floor where the weapons were placed.
After walking a short distance and feeling somewhat at ease, the group began to mutter to themselves:
Goodness, so many "weapons of mass destruction"?
Wu Tong / Brother Tong, I'm afraid you're not after extortion or a deal, but rather after wiping out your entire family and confiscating their property, right?
And... the firepower that these things on the ground could generate would probably be enough to plow the whole world cleanly, wouldn't it?
Is Wu Tong / Brother Tong planning to send Old Yue to conquer the world?
Thinking of this, everyone exchanged glances, and inexplicably, the image of Yue Buqun transforming into a rebel, clamoring to conquer the world, surfaced in their minds...
Hiss...
This scene is really... a bit bizarre, isn't it?!
Upon realizing the grotesque nature of the scene, a chill ran down everyone's spine.
So, he quickly removed that image from his mind.
Ning Zhongze, who was standing to the side, listened to Wu Tong's words and then remained silent for a moment, his heart already beginning to waver.
However, Ning Zhongze did not give an immediate answer. Instead, she looked at Wu Tong and asked:
"Young Master Wu, I wonder just how powerful these weapons you've taken out are, and how strong the attacks sealed within those three Jade Talisman really are?"
Upon hearing Ning Zhongze's question, Wu Tong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he chuckled inwardly: It seems she's already tempted.
Indeed, once the transaction is successful, the Mount Hua Sect will make a name for itself in the Comprehensive Martial World, and its revival will be just around the corner.
In addition, the fact that cheat codes are easily copied...
The profit from this deal is simply enormous.
Wu Tong once saw a quote online that profoundly elucidated the philosophy of "capital." It went like this:
Capital becomes active with a 20% profit; it becomes reckless with a 50% profit; it dares to trample on all laws with a 100% profit; and it dares to risk being hanged and fight desperately.
Although this statement may not be entirely accurate in this context, the underlying principle remains the same.
Once the interests exceed a certain limit, then danger and bottom lines are not insurmountable obstacles.
If we add a certain amount of force to this, then... hehe, it's like chemistry, a little bit of a strange reaction can cause a huge explosion!
After figuring it out, Wu Tong smiled and met Ning Zhongze's gaze, replying sincerely:
"Weapon power?"
"Don't worry about that, these weapons are definitely powerful."
"Putting everything else aside, even the weakest of the Destruction Hand Grenade can easily destroy a mountain. All other weapons are no weaker than this Destruction Hand Grenade."
"How about this..."
"I'll give you some information about these weapons in a bit, and you'll see for yourselves."
"I believe in the power of those weapons; they will definitely not disappoint you, Madam Yue."
After saying that, Wu Tong casually picked up a cup of tea from the table, took a sip, and then spoke again:
"As for a casual strike with my current strength? It should be able to easily Destruction a planet."
Even though I've just arrived in this world and don't know how powerful the martial arts here are, I still don't understand how formidable they are.
But there probably aren't many powerful individuals capable of Star Explosion in the Comprehensive Martial World, right?
After saying that, Wu Tong suddenly realized that, given Yue Buqun and the others' knowledge, they probably didn't know what a planet was.
So Wu Tong spoke again, explaining to the Mount Hua Sect members, "As for what a planet is?"
To put it in terms you can understand, it's like those stars in the sky—I could take one down with a single flick of my wrist...
"Of course, the Jade Talisman can judge the opponent's strength on its own and adjust its output power accordingly, so you don't need to worry about it Destruction the world."
However, if you wish, you can force the output of all power, but that would inevitably cause damage to this world.
After all, an attack capable of Star Explosion, even if released into the air, would cause turmoil on the entire planet.
As soon as Wu Tong finished speaking, the scene fell into a deathly silence.
Whether it was Ning Zhongze, Yue Buqun, or even some of the group members, they were all shocked by Wu Tong's description.
However, unlike Yue Buqun and his group who were shocked by Wu Tong's power, the other group members were shocked by the arrogant and extravagant demeanor Wu Tong displayed when he said those words.
Oh my god!
Look at this, he's the real king of showing off!
Look at what others are saying...
A casual strike!
Star Explosion!!!
How could he say something so terrifying in such a calm tone?
After a long while, the crowd gradually recovered from the shock of Wu Tong's words.
After everyone came to their senses, Wu Tong took another sip of tea, looked at Ning Zhongze was still somewhat lost in thought, and steered the conversation back to the main topic:
"Well, Madam Yue, do you have any further questions?"
"No problem, absolutely no problem... Regarding the transaction involving Ye Erniang and Duan Yanqing, my Mount Hua Sect agrees."
Before Ning Zhongze could answer, Yue Buqun immediately slammed his hand on the table and agreed to Wu Tong's request.
After Yue Buqun agreed, he turned his burning gaze toward the weapon Wu Tong had placed aside and the three Jade Talisman on the table.
A fervent and urgent the Scream rang out in my heart:
This time, we really... hit the jackpot!!!
Let's not even talk about the three Jade Talisman that contain the power to Star Explosion.
In Yue Buqun's view, the weapons on the ground alone were enough for the Mount Hua Sect to complete this transaction.
After all, the principle that "a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime" is something even an ordinary person can understand, let alone him, the leader of the Mount Hua Sect.
The Mount Hua Sect initially refused because they lacked the strength to negotiate with Dali and Shaolin Temple.
Once the secret of knowing the two villains is exposed, it will inevitably displease the two major forces. At that time, forget about "trading", it would be good if you were not forced to "shut up".
However, once one possesses the strength to match the secret, the roles of attacker and defender will change.
This is the same as nuclear deterrence.
