Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss Chapter 579 - : Enticing with Benefits for a While

Chapter 579: Enticing with Benefits for a While

Ling Chuxi was also stunned. She had long since guessed that by bringing her along, Mo Kongyuan had meant to entrust her with his final matters, but she never thought that he would give her the t.i.tle of being his successor just like that.

“Mister Mo, my abilities are meager, and I am unable to take up such a heavy responsibility. It would be better for you to choose someone else,” said Ling Chuxi a little regretfully. If she had known earlier that he was going to put such a big burden onto her shoulders, she would not have come.

Frankly speaking, she also had very deep feelings for Nan Xia Country, and if anything were to happen to it, she would not be able to watch on without doing anything. However, to be Nan Xia Country’s guardian? It was still better to just forget it.

Just now she was just saying that it was not good to be a guardian because guardians couldn’t repay favors or take revenge easily. When aggrieved they still had to hold it in and hide it. That kind of thankless manual labor was something she was not willing to do even if you beat her to death.

“It’s not like I am asking you to take my place immediately. Instead, you will only take my place when I die. What are you so anxious about? Could it be that you wish for me to die earlier?” snapped Mo Kongyuan as he glared at Ling Chuxi.

“Mister Mo, I did not mean that. I am just afraid that I will be unable to bear such a huge responsibility,” said Ling Chuxi, not knowing to laugh or to cry.

What kind of a joke was this? Once she took on this bitter task, even when bullying people, she would need to think about her ident.i.ty as a country’s guardian. When she herself was bullied, she would also need to think about her how her retaliation would influence the country’s rise and fall, and the safety of its citizens as its guardian. How tiring would it be to live like that? It was still better to live as she was now, free and at ease.

“You don’t even know the difference between good and bad. You don’t even know how many people on this earth would drool over this position, to be the guardian of a country. Yet despite all the good this position holds, you are actually even unwilling to take it,” said Mo Kongyuan.

“I don’t know…” Ling Chuxi said listlessly as she thought of the best way to reject this offer.

“You know, as a guardian, you will be able to go to any of the great sects and easily request for the sect masters to teach you martial arts. This kind of a good thing is something all sect disciples can only dream of,” added Mo Kongyuan.

“Really?” Ling Chuxi’s eyes widened all of a sudden. In just a few friendly exchanges with Mo Kongyuan, she, Ling Yichen, and the rest of their group had learned quite a bit. If she could visit the sects and sect masters across all the various countries, how much of a benefit would she gain? It was just a pity that sects were otherworldly and reclusive, unable to be found by ordinary people no matter how much they sought them out. Where else would there be a chance to seek such guidance?

“If you don’t believe me, why don’t you ask them and see?” continued Mo Kongyuan.

“Brother Mo is not wrong. If we were to talk about our cultivation and abilities, half of it was obtained from our masters’ pa.s.sing down of skills, and the other half came from learning from sects,” chimed in Mister Cao without waiting for Ling Chuxi to ask.

“Then, please give me a while to consider this offer.” Ling Chuxi’s mind started to make calculations.

Anyway, as Mo Kongyuan was still alive and well, it was not necessarily so that she would have to take up this bitter task just yet. Furthermore, if anything untoward were to really happen to him, becoming a guardian was also not a loss. At most, after gaining all the benefits the position had to offer, she could just pa.s.s it on to someone else. This business deal was not a loss.

Not only was it not a loss, it was practically a big-time win.

“Hmph, and you still have to consider it? Do you think that it is so easy to become a guardian’s successor? I, on the other hand, want to see if you can even pa.s.s our challenge,” said Xie Wuji discourteously.

“Pa.s.s what challenge?” asked Ling Chuxi, not knowing what he was talking about.

“If you want to be a guardian’s successor, you will need to pa.s.s challenges set by four guardians. No one is exempt from this,” explained Mo Kongyuan solemnly.

“What?! I don’t want to do that!” exclaimed Ling Chuxi as her scalp turned numb. These were all guardians of countries in the realm of True Essence. Putting it nicely, it was a test, putting it roughly, it was willingly seeking abuse and death. Which idiot was it who set up such rules? They didn’t have the slightest bit of IQ.

Xie Wuji who was standing by the side blew out his beard and glared at Ling Chuxi when he heard her outburst. This little brat really did not know the difference between what was good and what was not.
