Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 2464
Faced with all the enthusiastic chiefs and dazzling offers, Fade was exceptionally calm.
It was because in his heart, he wasn't prepared to join any Martial Hall at all.
Thinking of this, he spoke up, "I'm very thankful for all the support you guys have shown me. However, I have a few questions before I make my decision. I hope you all will be able to answer them for me." "Say it!"
"If you have any questions, feel free to ask me!"
At this moment, all the chiefs seemed to be particularly friendly.
Fade nodded and said softly, "If I join a Martial Hall, does that mean that I will live on the inner island from now on? Will I be able to leave?"
Upon hearing this question, the chiefs' faces changed slightly.
Thurl spoke first, "According to the rules, once you join a Martial Hall, you will be a resident of Prohibition Island. Therefore, under normal circumstances, you are not allowed to leave the island." "Of course, when you have tasks or special circumstances, you can still go out."
Several other chiefs joined in.
"If you join Fiery Flame Hall, we will allow you to go out for a month every year. There will be no restrictions."
"We will offer you two months!"
"Two and a half months; that is the most we can offer. It can't be any longer."
Hearing this, Fade frowned slightly. Two and a half months was too short for him.
Thinking of this, he shook his head and said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid I'm not suitable to be on the inner island."
"I'm more used to living with my friends and
relatives."
After hearing his words, most of the chiefs frowned.
"Fade, you are highly gifted in martial arts. You'll only have real value if you keep improving yourself."
"Your so-called friends and relatives in the secular world can only live for a hundred years at most. Once you reach the Lord Level, even several hundreds of years of life is not a problem. When that time comes, you will find that the people you value now are insignificant."
"Young man, don't be restricted by love and relationships. The endless path of martial arts is your future."
Even Camelia came to Fade's side at this moment and persuaded him in a low voice, "You are a man. Are you really this shortsighted and unambitious?"
He shook his head and said, "I value martial arts greatly, but I care more about my life." "If martial arts is all I have, and I don't have my friends and family there with me, what's the point? My life will lose all the little moments that I treasure. Martial arts will become meaningless to me."
"I pursued martial arts because I wanted to attain a better life. I don't want to give up my life for it."
His words upset many of the chiefs. Many even shook their heads and sighed, directly expressing their disappointment towards him.
"In the end, he's nothing more than a mere mortal. It's such a waste of such talents."
"When you reach the peak of martial arts, you will understand what living is really about. All these other petty things are meaningless." "He is too short-sighted. Holy Martial Hall has decided to give up on him."
"If you don't have a firm heart for martial arts, no matter how talented you are, it's only a waste."
Fade could hear the disappointment in all their voices, but his expression didn't change. In fact, he seemed even more relaxed.
He was about to say goodbye and leave.
Suddenly, Janus raised his head, looked at Fade, and said, "If you join Green Wood Hall, I can give you the freedom you want."
"Freedom? What kind of freedom?" Fade could not help but ask.
"I will make you a special envoy. You will be given a permit that allows you to enter or leave the inner island freely. There will be no restrictions."
"No restrictions." Hearing this, Fade's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Janus continued, "Of course, you have to take on some tasks. You will only be afforded this privilege if you finish them. After all, power and duty must be balanced."
"I understand. What kind of tasks did you have in mind?" Fade asked.
Janus narrowed his eyes, paused for a moment, and said, "Represent us and explore the Ice-sealed Realm." "The lee-sealed Realm?" It was his first time hearing it and he was confused.
The other chiefs started shouting.
"Janus, that is a secret known only amongst the inner island. How could you expose it to an outsider?"
"Janus, you are too impulsive."
Janus looked at the others and said,
"The Ice-sealed Realm was indeed a secret before, but after all these years, many people have already found out about it and entered. It is
no longer a secret."
"Besides, our real purpose of recruiting Fade is for the sake of that realm, isn't it? I don't think there's anything wrong with me bringing it up with him now."
"But the Ice- sealed Realm was declared a secret by the masters of the Three Palaces. It is not for us to reveal."
"That's right, Janus. You are in clear violation of the masters' rules!"
"Either way, I object!"
Janus' expression darkened and he said coldly, "Everyone, the masters of the Three Palaces has been in seclusion for years. We have been exploring the Ice-sealed Realm for so many years, but our progress is going nowhere. We have hardly achieved anything."
"Do you really think that the masters will be happy with what we have to show when they finally emerge again?"
"Will our greatest contribution be us reporting how well we've maintained the secret?"
Faced with Janus' questioning, many of them fell silent.
He continued, "I believe that as long as we succeed in exploring the realm, it won't matter if the secret is exposed or not."
"Of course, if anyone is still worried, I will bear the responsibility. The three masters are free to punish me as they see fit."
Having said so much, the other chiefs were gradually starting to come round.
As usual, Thurl was the first to break the silence. "I agree with your point. What we achieve is the most important. With nothing to show, everything else is just a fantasy." "There is no need to abide by the rules. There's nothing wrong with being a little flexible," Adair added.
"Fade, our Hall would gladly make you a special envoy as well. You will be free to
leave and enter the island."
"Same here."
After Janus persuaded all the chiefs, they went right back to arguing over Fade.
Even he was a little surprised. After pondering for a while, he looked at Janus and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I've decided to join Green Wood Hall."
