Condemning the Heavens-Chapter 552

Chapter 552: 552

The moment that Lan's eyes landed on the branch leader, the ghost could not help but feel his body tense slightly . He laughed at himself with some mockery and disdain as he realized that this was the most nervous he had ever felt, but he could not stop these uncontrollable feelings .

No ghost wished to stay within the Ghost Realm . It was a barren and desolate place that would challenge anyone's mind to their limits . If one did not have a ferocious will to survive and a hope for a future, they would easily succumb and turn into nothingness, becoming the energy consumed by others, and vanishing from the world forever .

"The reason we could enter this world is due to Xue Wei being a Rulebreaker . These entities are ranked based on which rules their existence has broken, and the amount of people they can bring with them out of this realm also depends on the rank reached .

"Although we are still looking for one or two others, we have enough space to bring an extra ghost, so I would like to extend an invitation for you to join us . "

Although Lan was merely extending an invitation to the branch leader, everyone knew that he would never decline this offer, as it was the reason for which he assisted them throughout their time in the Ghost Realm .

The reason that Lan also mentioned Xue Wei's position as a Rulebreaker was also to ensure that they would continue to protect him while they were in this world .

Lan had already broken through to the world of the immortals once again, and he did not fear for his own personal safety, but having more people protecting Xue Wei did not seem like a bad idea . Also, by knowing that it was this young man who held the key to leave the Ghost Realm, they all felt that his identity must remain confidential .

Although Lan was the one who had broken through to the Immortal Realm, the most important person to these ghosts was still Xue Wei .

Xue Wei might seem much more ordinary next to a Deity, but Lan's strength had no influence on them, while Xue Wei was the ticket to leave the desolate Ghost Realm, hence he was the pearl that would be held securely in their palm .

The branch leader looked at Xue Wei with a bit of hesitation . It was Lan who had invited him to leave with them, but in the end, Xue Wei was the one who held the actual power .

The thoughts of the branch leader were obvious to all, and Xue Wei could not help but chuckle slightly . It was not every day that you saw an illustrious God being ignored, while the decision-making was left to a mere mortal .

"Since Lan has already invited you, there will naturally be a spot for you, should you wish to leave alongside us . "

It was not only Lan who wished to offer the branch leader a chance to leave; Xue Wei also felt that they owed this ghost such an invitation .

Although he had always been acting with a purpose, he had truly been polite and friendly towards them . It was also the branch leader who had helped them locate Mo Lian this quickly, so no matter what his purpose had been, they had to thank him for his help .

Xue Wei was a ruthless figure . He would not bat an eyelid when killing, but he was not someone who would not return the favors that had been given him .

Those who were helpful deserved his repayment many times over, while those who harmed him had to experience his wrath a thousand times back .

Xue Wei did not believe in good or bad . There was no one who was completely good, nor was there anyone who was fully bad .

Everything depended on their mindset . Xue Wei was half-beast, half-human, and he had understood many things .

Humans were against murdering other humans, but to them, beasts were nothing to care about . They could be caught and used according to their wishes, and even killed to be eaten .

He would not consider himself a good person . He would kill humans and beasts alike, not caring what origin they had . He did not feel a reason to distinguish between the two, and as a half-beast, he even revelled in the feeling of bloodlust and slaughter .

However, although the feeling of slaughtering was like an addiction, he still maintained his rational mind . Only those who opposed him would be the subject of his rage; others would be left alone . Not due to his benevolence, but because he did not wish to lose control of who he was .

Every person had their own guidelines to follow . In a world where only strength determined the position one held, it was easy to lose control and use any means to get the results one wished for, but Xue Wei wanted to stay true to himself .

He was ruthless when it was needed, but he had not lost all his ability to care for others .

As he was deep in thought, he could not help but think about the companions he had left behind in the world of the living . He was worried about their wellbeing, and was curious about their whereabouts, but he decided to trust in their abilities . He believed that they would meet again soon .

At the same time, he also thought of Wang Xiaoyun . He often remembered the hostility she felt towards him when she found out that he had beast-blood running through his veins, and this hostility was what had caused him to truly spend some time to consider the mindset of humans and beasts, and the nature of good and evil .
