Legend of Dream God in a Little Dream

Chapter 170 The Prerequisite for Saving the People

"Why are you so selfish?" said the fish in confusion, or rather, it was the willow tree that was puzzled.

"Selfish?" Zeng Jun asked back.

"You used countless lives to exchange for Weiwei's life, isn't that selfish?" Yusuo asked back.

"If I give up Vivi, it will be Vivi's life plus countless lives that will disappear," Zengjun said.

How to say this sentence? To outsiders, it seems very conscienceless, just like lighting beacons to trick the princes just to make Bao Si smile. To outsiders, this is pure harm.

"You mean, if Weiwei is going to die, they shouldn't be alive?" asked Yusuo in disbelief.

The willow tree also found it unbelievable after hearing this, because it originally thought that Zengjun came here to save the people and embarked on the journey of becoming stronger. Now with this result, the willow tree felt surprised and disappointed.

"If Weiwei is still alive, I will certainly do my best to save those I can. If they kill Weiwei, I will let them see what a tyrant is," Zengjun said bluntly.

"Then aren't their lives lives? It's obvious to exchange Weiwei for all living things," Yusuo tried to guide him. After all, no one wants their master to be a tyrant, not to mention that Liu Shu also longed to save others.

Otherwise, how could Zengjun challenge it endlessly?

"Trade them with Weiwei? Then let them die," Zengjun said firmly.

"It's simply hopeless," Liu Shu said in her own voice, trying to remind Zeng Jun: I'll give you a chance to answer again.

"This is the price. When I have to choose, I will choose the one that costs the least to others, but not to the people I care about. I will choose the one that costs the least to the people I care about," Zengjun said, obviously not listening to Liu Shu's advice.

"What if someone you care about asks you to save them? But if you save them, you will lose the person you care about. Will you listen to the person you care about?" Willow asked with the last bit of hope.

"I will choose for them," Zengjun replied.

Zengjun’s words really seem selfish, like double standards, but isn’t the premise of double standards to choose what is beneficial to oneself?

"You're simply hopeless. I thought you were going to brag about how great you are, but you just spoke your mind without even pretending," said Willow.

What does Willow mean by this?

Zeng Jun also laughed when he heard Liu Shu's words, "It seems that you yourself don't believe that they will really do what they say."

Willow also smiled and said, "That's right, I don't believe what others say, I only look at what he does."

Zengjun felt a little awkward when he saw Liushu using the turtledove while he was using Liushu's own things, but the truth was there.

"So, I maintain my original point of view. I will save whoever I can, on the premise that I can protect the people I care about," Zengjun said, looking at the fish in front of him.

It’s like Zengjun is not only talking to the willow tree, but also to the flounder.

Because Zengjun remembered that Ouse said that he wanted to be a person without weaknesses, so Ouse was training his heart, a heart that was not moved by anything, a heart with himself as the core.

"Haha, after all these years, you are the first person I have ever seen who didn't say he was saving the world." The willow tree transformed into its own human form and said with a smile, "It's a pity that my roots are here and I can't leave this snowy mountain. Otherwise, I really want to see you grow up. I feel that you will definitely go very far."

"So, this means you recognize me?" Zengjun asked the happy Liu Shu.

"That's considered recognition," Willow adjusted his tone, "Ahem, but you still have to pass the martial arts test, and you must be able to defeat me even if I don't hold you back."

"What is the prerequisite for defeating you?" Zeng Jun asked, "After all, it can't be to get rid of you, right?"

"Haha, that's right, then try to gain my recognition with your ability," said Willow.

Then a golden sword flew out from behind Willow.

Zengjun looked at the golden sword and said, "I don't feel its presence at all."

The golden sword flew around Zengjun several times and stopped in front of him.

Zengjun opened his hands, and the golden sword lay in his hands.

Zeng Jun looked at the golden sword in front of him. Its light only appeared when the golden sword came out, which meant that the golden sword could hide its own breath. The whole body of the sword was golden, symbolizing power, emitting brilliant golden light, illuminating everything.

The willow tree pointed at the golden sword and said, "It insisted on coming with me to test you. Before coming, I told it that you would definitely say that you came to save the people."

"Now it seems that its feeling is right, you will make us all look at you in a new light," Willow continued.

Zeng Jun held the golden sword in both hands, "Then it has recognized me."

"Yes, it thinks you have a great future and wants to fight with you. I really don't know if it will stand on your side when we really piss you off," Willow said jokingly, but it also seemed like it was revealing information to Zengjun.

"Does it think I will be pissed off? Could it be that there is a level, or even the last level, where it thinks I will be mad? What kind of challenge is it that would make it not think highly of me?" Zengjun thought as he savored Willow's words.

"This sword comes at a really bad time. If it helps you, you can at least work less hard for a few months," Willow said with a sigh.

"If you are not satisfied, I can pass your test on my own. This is your test, and of course you have the final say," Zengjun said, not wanting to perfunctorily respond to Liu Shu's good conscience.

"Okay, that's the best. Physical strength is also important," Willow said in approval.

"Of course, I understand that this is a major test for me," Zeng Jun nodded.

"Hurry up and sign a contract with it, otherwise I will be annoyed looking at this traitor," Willow urged.

Maybe it was also because, if Zengjun left, the willow tree would be missing a companion.

"You can also leave with us. We can go and witness the world we want to see together." Zengjun invited the willow tree.

"You can't take mine away. An ordinary storage ring can't hold my body." Liu Zhi said regretfully after looking at the storage ring on Zengjun's left index finger.

"What about this?" Zengjun took off the storage ring on his right index finger with his left hand.

The moment Zengjun took it down, a storage ring appeared in front of Liu Shu. "When did this appear? He obviously only has one storage ring, right?"

Willow pointed at the storage ring that it couldn't figure out, "Where did you get this ring? I didn't even notice it until you took it off."

"Oh, that's the name His Majesty gave me, that's Wuxiao." Zengjun changed the name so that Liu Shu could understand.

"You mean, that man with eight wings gave it to you?" Liu Shu was very surprised. The thing given by Wu Xiao proved that Wu Xiao was optimistic about that man.

"Eight Wings? You're talking about His Majesty, right?" Zeng Jun nodded.
