Today's second update: Chapter 2806! 2/6!
"Mister Mo strategized from within the command tent and secured victory a thousand miles away. We are truly impressed!"
A Li, Yue Chan'er, and the others all expressed their heartfelt admiration for Mo Chou.
Sometimes, what made many people respect someone was not merely their cultivation, combat power, or intelligence. More often, it was a person's charisma.
Faced with everyone's praise, Mo Chou remained unruffled by honor or disgrace.
He deeply understood the words Yu Ding Zhenren had earnestly spoken when teaching him his skills: "Even if you win a hundred battles, remember that there are always higher mountains beyond the mountains, and greater people beyond people. No one can keep winning forever."
"Those skilled at warfare do not first plan for victory, but for defeat. They neither rejoice at victory nor grieve over defeat. Only then can they be called wise!"
What Mo Chou wanted to become was the wise man Yu Ding Zhenren had described. How could a wise man become smug over a temporary victory? People like that would never go far.
Besides, compared to The Lord, his little ability was nothing more than the glow of a firefly against the bright moon. Self-satisfaction was absolutely out of the question. He could only work bit by bit to draw closer to The Lord!
Over a thousand members of the Huang clan escorted more than forty thousand prisoners back to their original encampment. In contrast to the humiliation of the Cat clan being captured by enemies dozens of times fewer in number, the Huang clan was all smiles.
"Next, we'll have to trouble the Matriarchs again."
The previous prisoners had already had their bloodline data collected by Yue Chan'er and the others. The ones being escorted back now were new specimens.
