Chapter 125 -120: I’d Rather Be a Beggar
Wei Sisan furiously made his stance, aiming to intimidate the Sea King and the Earth King to hold them in check. Naturally, the two kings were upset, but Wei had every right to be angry, and what could they do? Moreover, their cause was unjust, so they could only swallow their disdain, reassuring him repeatedly that they would find the real culprit.
Everyone knew, however, that finding the schemer wouldn’t be easy. This was all just a show. They still had to show respect to Wei Sisan. After all, he was still the Alliance Leader, even if in name only, just another follower of the Third Demon. So, they let him vent.
Through this show of force, Wei Sisan wanted to impose his authority and eliminate the arrogant brigands. He did not suggest that the matter could be linked to the position of the Alliance Leader. Instead, he pointed out that the brigands were growing too audacious, effectively making use of the situation.
To exterminate the brigands who had been wreaking havoc everywhere, the Sea King and Earth King could only agree. If they had disagreed, they would appear unprincipled or would be seen as suspects. They had no choice but to stand with Wei Sisan for the stability of the Wastelands and remove the arrogant thieves.
It was like killing two birds with one stone. Hopefully, there would be peace for some time, but Wei Sisan knew this was only temporary. He would have to face whatever came his way. However, this incident certainly helped to stabilize things for now.
“Thank you, my two brothers.” Wei Sisan’s tone softened somewhat.
The two individuals had no objections. Earth King Gua Zhengnie responded, “Hey, don’t mention it. Those bandits have indeed grown too insolent. If this continues, the Wastelands will descend into chaos. We simply cannot let them have their way.”
Sea King Zun Yu interjected, “Indeed, we cannot let these people run amok. We must thoroughly eliminate these harmful tumors.”
“Thank you for your help, my two brothers.” Everyone knew that if they could get rid of some troublemakers, it would be good.
“What are you saying? We all come from the same root, we are all followers of the Third Demon. Even though we have split into three factions, we are still of the Third Demon. If the Third Demon faces any problems, we should assist each other. Moreover, eliminating bandits benefits the common people. It’s a great deed, why wouldn’t we do it?” Earth King Gua Zhengnie responded.
“Is that so? Then let us cooperate and eradicate these tumors?”

Sea King Zun Yu responded, “Of course, we must cooperate and eliminate these unbridled outlaws. Otherwise, they will continue to act with impunity.”
“That’s wonderful.”
Wei Sisan completely sidestepped the point about whether grabbing Ling’er had ulterior motives, and simply brushed it off by saying they must have done it for extortion purposes.
The Sea King and Earth King were obviously delighted. Wei Sisan had been angry and threatening, but he did not directly implicate them. They were naturally pleased and readily agreed to eliminate the bandits.
Finally, a satisfactory conclusion was reached.
Soon, the Sea King and Earth King left.
Wei Sisan and Jiang Zhuge were the only ones left.
“Who do you think is the chief conspirator amongst the two?” Wei Sisan asked.
“That’s not important. What matters is that they will quiet down for a while.” Jiang Zhuge responded.
“It seems that these Wastelands will never be as they once were,” Wei Sisan sighed.
“As long as the Alliance Leader remains in good health, they will still be much intimidated. I believe they will be quiet for a while.”
“But only for a while.”
“Indeed, we must make early preparations.”
Wei Sisan changed the subject, “Let’s take this opportunity to thoroughly cleanse the Wastelands of the arrogant brigands that have been rampantly causing trouble. We cannot let this situation continue. If it does, we don’t need the Third Demon to cause chaos. The entire Wastelands will be in disarray.”
Jiang Zhuge said, “Although they are unwilling, they have no choice but to help us. We can use this opportunity to bring peace to the Wastelands for a while, unlike the chaos of the past two years.”
“Hmm, let’s leave this matter to Xiao Bai. Let Xiao Bai be in charge of this matter, and you will be in charge of recruiting and reorganizing our people, preparing for possible future changes.”
“Do you want to entrust this matter to me?” Jiang Zhuge asked.
“Certainly, there is no better person than you for this task.”
“I can offer suggestions, but someone wiser should be in charge of such a big matter.”
“Don’t be modest, you are the one. See if you can seize the time to revitalize us in the next few years. Bring in more fresh blood to prepare for future changes.” Wei Sisan said, increasingly aware that fragmentation was inevitable. It was just a matter of time. How to control the Wastelands after the split was paramount.
Watching the departing Earth King and Sea King, Jiang Zhuge said, “Both of these guys are hardly suited for great responsibilities.”
“Yes, I am most worried about the Sky Domain Sect. That’s my biggest concern.”
Jiang Zhuge nodded upon hearing this.
Wei Sisan asked, “Has there been any change in the Sky Domain Sect recently?”
“Not much has changed. They are strengthening their power all the time,” said Jiang Zhuge.
“A very composed person, not a simple one.” Wei Sisan and his people don’t interact much with the Sky Domain Sect, and up to now they still don’t know whether these people belong to the righteous or the wicked. The Sky Domain Sect seemed to have no intention of interacting with them either, which only made Wei Sisan feel this sect was not simple, and he had to quickly clarify the situation.
Wei Sisan continued, “Keep an eye on the Sky Domain Sect as well. Watch their movements. We can’t be careless. We must ascertain who exactly they are.”
“Alright, rest assured, I will be cautious.”
“Let Kong Sha handle this matter. You are responsible for recruiting soldiers and disciplining them, so we can quickly strengthen our power.”
“Alright, thank you for your trust, Alliance Leader.”
“I can only trust you now. If anything happens, feel free to consult with me.”
“As for what happened to Ling’er, we should be more cautious. We don’t know if they have truly given up.”
Hearing this, Wei Sisan nodded and replied, “Hmm, rest assured, I believe they wouldn’t dare to make such blatantly reckless moves in the Wasteland City.”
He wanted to use his status as Alliance Leader to effectively control the Wasteland City and prevent the situation from continuing to worsen. If things continue on like this within the Wastelands, chaos would eventually ensue. He couldn’t rely on others now, he had to handle it himself.
…
Ye Chen found a place at the end of a street, further away from the center of Wasteland City. The courtyard was rather large. From one side of the yard, one could see a lake, and in the middle of the yard stood a camel-back willow tree, like a wise old man.
This small, modest home was rather peaceful. And it was still part of Wasteland City. Occasionally, one could have some fun fishing under the willow tree. More importantly, this place was quiet with a river passing right by the front door.
On the other side, there was a temple. Although the temple wasn’t that large, a number of beggars gathered around it. Occasionally, people would come over to burn incense. After spending a few days tidying up, this broken-down, neglected house was cheap to buy. After a great effort, the place was cleaned up. There was even a well in the courtyard.
Ye Chen said, “We could actually live better, you know. As long as you accompany me to the gambling parlour tonight and we win a good sum, we could easily afford a larger courtyard house. Then we could even afford a maid to do massages, and we could live in the most bustling part of town.”
Red Demonic Spirit knew what he was thinking and responded, “You want a maid to perform massages on you. We cannot do that. We need a quiet location to practice Martial arts at this time.”
“Oh, not massages, but we could always use someone to cook, do laundry… Isn’t that a good idea?”
“Cook ourselves, do our laundry. I think this place is good as it is. The courtyard is big, and we could even grow some vegetables. Plus, we have a few rooms.”
“Grow some vegetables and have a few rooms? There isn’t a single room here in good condition, they all need to be fixed. it sounds romantic, doesn’t it? plow fields and woven fabrics, if we’re really doing that, shouldn’t we have a woman first?”
Red Demonic Spirit smirked and said, “You decide for yourself. I think this place is good enough. At least it won’t expose my identity.”
Ye Chen smiled lightly and said, “Weren’t you the one who always wanted to see beauties? There are loads of monks here.” The monk temple behind had begun to hum sutras again.
“You’re the one who’s always thinking about looking at beauties, wanting to live opposite a brothel.”
“Hehe, I wouldn’t dare.”
“Hurry up and finish your work here. I need to have a good rest.” Red Demonic Spirit emerged from his body.
Hearing the talk coming from inside the temple, Ye Chen said, “I think it won’t be long before I start considering becoming a monk.”
“That’s a good idea, so you wouldn’t harm anyone anymore.”
“I didn’t think you’d really want me to become a monk.” Ye Chen said as he cleaned up the inside, and threw unwanted items into a broken room, creating some space.
Red Demonic Spirit continued, “This corner is suitable, clean it up, and we can plant some vegetables.”
“Should we also raise some chickens, and maybe divert water in to keep fish.”
“Yes, then we could be self-sufficient.”
“I’d rather beg on the streets.”
“Hmm, there’s a big group of beggars behind, you could join them.” Red Demonic Spirit continued, “Then in your life, all you’ll have left is to eat. Without food, you’ll have nothing.”
“Actually we could live better. Why must we put ourselves through this?”
“Young man, experiencing hardship is a blessing.”
“Well, I don’t need such blessing. Life is short, better enjoy life timely, not knowing how you could die any moment, wouldn’t it be a pity to have regrets then,” said Ye Chen.
“You’re the one who talks too much.”
