3165 God’s Will
After a pause, he smiled slightly and his kind eyes fell onto Mo Chen: “Besides, he was able to become my Senior Brother’s disciple, so how can he be an ordinary person?”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s hearts stirred slightly and their eyes fell on Mo Chen. One of them took a step forward and said: “If you want to become the Holy Son, how can only have strength without holy power? I wonder what is different about Young Master Nalan from others?”
Obviously, they wouldn’t just recognise a person who had come out of nowhere to become their Holy Son. If he wanted to be the Holy Son of the Temple, he had to show them his strength to convince them. Otherwise, even if he did become the Holy Son, he wouldn’t be respected and the people below wouldn’t obey him.
Mo Chen smiled lightly upon hearing this. His deep eyes swept over everyone and finally fell on the Palace Lord saying: “I don’t want to be any Holy Son, Palace Lord should choose someone else! Now that my Master’s sachet has been delivered, it is time for me to bid farewell.”
Having said that, he bowed and turned around to leave. At this time, the Palace Lord on the throne laughed and stopped him.
“Wait a minute.”
The Palace Lord looked at Mo Chen with a smile after he stopped him, then he said smiling: “I don’t think you understood my words earlier.”
He stood up with a smile and walked down slowly with his hands behind his back and said: “The position of the Holy Son of the Temple has been vacant for many years. Your Master, my Senior Brother, left to find you. And in addition to being the Phoenix Star’s guardian, you also have the responsibility of the Holy Son. You have already met the Phoenix Star by now, haven’t you?”
Mo Chen’s eyes flickered slightly when he heard this. He turned slightly to look at the Palace Lord, but he didn’t speak.
When everyone else heard this, their expressions changed slightly and they were silent for a while, their thoughts unknown.
The Palace Lord came to Mo Chen. He looked at him and said slowly: “You should already know about the Phoenix Star. As the guardian of the Phoenix Star, your responsibility is no small matter.”
He walked slowly in the main hall and came to the doors of the hall, he looked at the sky outside with his hands behind his back and sighed: “This world will be chaotic, a catastrophe will befall the Emperor and the Phoenix Star. Once the calamity strikes, the three realms will be in chaos and the people’s lives will be plunged into misery and suffering, it will be like hell for the ordinary people in the world.”
After a pause, he looked back and Mo Chen and said: “If you don’t take the position of the Holy Son and assume the responsibility of the Holy Son, does that mean you want to watch all this happen?”
Mo Chen pursed his lips and remained silent for a while deep in thought. After a long time, he asked: “What else do I need to do to take over the position of the Holy Son?”
“You need to enter the Holy Tower to practise.” The Palace Lord said and looked at him: “In there, you will need to cut off all emotions and desires, cut off the threads of love and obtain the holy power.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Chen’s eyes moved slightly. He closed his eyes slowly, and after a while, he said: “In that case, please arrange this, Palace Lord!”
The Palace Lord took a deep look at him and nodded. He said to the old man beside him: “Take the Holy Son to the Holy Son Hall to have a good rest.”
“Yes.” The old man responded. After he bowed to Mo Chen respectfully, he gestured and invited him: “Holy Son, please come with me.”
“Thank you.” Mo Chen said, then he nodded to the Palace Lord and left with the old man.
After Mo Chen left, someone couldn’t help but ask: “Palace Lord, why does he have to be the Holy Son?”
The Palace Lord looked at the figure walking away and sighed softly: “It’s God’s will.”
