Lama Sangji breathed a long sigh of relief!
The more spiritual a person was, the less likely they were to believe in gods. They understood better than ordinary people what gods were...
They believed more in "faith," and cared more about "faith."
Because it was "faith" that had made them who they were, not some great man who had already passed away!
Those who were always going on about this or that god seemed more like they were marketing faith than spreading it.
Perhaps it was best for the so-called Divine Eagle Alliance if the "Eagle God" never appeared!
Preserving the spirit Old Gesang had passed down and giving up some benefits to cooperate with the Gun Club was the most responsible thing they could do for the Snow Region.
Lama Sangji bowed respectfully to Alvin and said, "That's good...
I'll go tell them now and have them get ready!"
As he spoke, Lama Sangji hesitated, then looked earnestly at Alvin. "But could I ask you to go say a few words to them?
We all know what this contest is about. I really don't want Old Gesang's efforts and final wishes to go to waste!"
Alvin hesitated, then shook his head. "No. Even if the Divine Eagle Alliance wants to join the Gun Club, it needs to be led by someone with a clear head...
If they're afraid to compete because of me, then disbanding the alliance might actually be the best outcome."
Alvin smiled faintly. "I'm happy to believe they love the Snow Region!
But the real reason they care so much about 'inheritance' is still 'power' and 'status'...
Without those two things, their familiarity with and passion for the Snow Region wouldn't give them any leverage in negotiations with the Gun Club.
I respect Old Gesang, so
