Chapter Summary
Gaining a super-strong individual was certainly a cause for celebration, but the problem was that this super-strong individual was constantly causing trouble, which was intolerable to everyone. They would say, "When trouble arises, instead of protecting your subordinates, you, as their leader, kick them out. If you really go against them, no matter if you're a peerless expert or the head of a powerful family, you have to think carefully about how much leverage you have.
His Excellency the Speaker sighed helplessly. For him, this matter was truly excessive. He had initially thought his side's strength had increased dramatically, but things had turned out this way. Gaining a super-strong individual was certainly a cause for celebration, but the problem was that this super-strong individual was constantly causing trouble, which was intolerable to everyone. If he were to kick this person out, many subordinates would be very unhappy. They would say, "When trouble arises, instead of protecting your subordinates, you, as their leader, kick them out. What does that mean?" If this led to misunderstandings, His Excellency the Speaker would be unable to lead his people. They would think it over and wouldn't help him in the future. After all, there were precedents of him not intervening when trouble came; why should they risk their lives? Even if they risked their lives, would he still care about them?
"I told you long ago, this kid isn't an ordinary person. You have to keep a close eye on him. What's going on in your head? You need to make sure this kid understands that I can't forgive him for causing this trouble. Even if I can resolve this matter, it will come at a huge cost, just like with the Mage Guild. Others might give me face, but do you think the Mage Guild will? How much influence do I have with the Mage Guild? This kid shouldn't think he's above the law. He is indeed a genius, but he's just a genius now. Even if he's stronger than you, in the eyes of those beings beyond the God of War, in the eyes of the Mage Guild Master, is he really that powerful? Of course, I know what this kid means to both of us, which is why I'm protecting him. But only this once. If it happens again next time, then let him handle it himself. I will never help him a second time. This is all perfectly normal."
That's what the Speaker said to Zhao Wudi. This matter is far too thorny. If it were any other matter, or if it involved offending other powerful families, no one would dare to disrespect Zhao Wudi's master. But this time, you've offended the Mage's Guild. Do you know what kind of organization the Mage's Guild is? It's not just five mages; they have countless subordinates. Just their warrior-level experts alone are even stronger than the Human Council. Many people love money, and mages are the least short of it. They can easily make a magic scroll and sell it for hundreds of billions or even trillions of dollars. So they have enough money to recruit everyone. If you really go against them, no matter if you're a peerless expert or the head of a powerful family, you have to think carefully about how much leverage you have. If you don't have enough leverage, don't do too much in this matter, because everyone understands this very well. Some things can't be done this way, and some things must be understood.
Frankly, even His Excellency the Speaker feels he has spoken far too much. He has never taken anyone so seriously before, because His Excellency understands very well that such a person is a once-in-a-millennium talent. However, the problem is that he cannot afford to cause trouble like this. If he continues to cause trouble, then things will become unpredictable. His Excellency has many powerful subordinates. If everyone acted like this, how would His Excellency decide on matters? Would he do nothing all day but clean up their messes? This is not a good thing. Therefore, Zhao Wudi must understand, and Liu Ning must understand, that no matter how strong one's own abilities are, one is just an individual. One must rely on the entire group to survive. Therefore, after this incident, in everything one does, one must consider the large force behind one's actions. How will they persevere? What will the final outcome be? This is the more important question. If one cannot even understand this, then the only option left is to get out.
Zhao Wudi kept talking about this issue on the phone, describing the events of the day in detail, hoping to give his master a sense of empathy. After listening to all the descriptions, the Speaker naturally understood what was going on. If he were in that situation, he probably wouldn't be able to hold back either. However, the Speaker couldn't say that out loud. He had to put a tight rein on Liu Ning. Now that Liu Ning was clearly siding with them, everyone was giving him face. If he handled this matter like this, the future outcome was uncertain. Therefore, the Speaker had to make this kid understand that he had definitely made a mistake in this matter. Even if he had made the right move, no one would say he had done the right thing, because everyone was very clear about the current situation. Under these circumstances, it was absolutely impossible for this matter to just pass by like that. That was completely impossible for everyone. And precisely because of this, when such things happened again, he was to handle it himself.
When Zhao Wudi hung up the phone, he had been thoroughly scolded. Seeing Zhao Wudi like this, Liu Ning felt a little uncomfortable, but Zhao Wudi didn't say anything. "We've done what we were supposed to do for you. The rest is up to you. You have to handle this matter properly. The Speaker's words were very serious, but Liu Ning could tell that the Speaker had put a lot of effort into him, and he was now useful to him. If he wanted to improve in the future, the three of them could exchange ideas. Three mentalists exchanging ideas would be very effective. So Liu Ning's trip was definitely going to have a good result. But the higher-ups had to scare him, otherwise, he'd lose his nerve. Who knew what this kid would do in the future? So, on this point, the Speaker had to make Liu Ning understand that this matter couldn't be taken too far. If he went too far, probably no one in the world would care about his petty affairs."
