Upon hearing these words, Xia Ji's face completely changed, he spoke in somewhat an embarrassed tone, "Jiang Chen, don't sling mud without reason, I, Xia Ji have been upright in my dealings all my life. Everything I have done is for the Human Race, without an iota of self-interest."
"If this is not the case, let me die beneath the Nine Tripods, forever unable to reincarnate!"
Xia Ji, angered by Jiang Chen's words, even pledged a deadly oath to prove his innocence.
Jiang Chen trusted his words. He firmly believed that Xia Ji's actions were all for the sake of the Human Race, not for personal gain. However, it was for this very reason that Jiang Chen found it even more terrifying.
This is because he won't see any fault in his actions. He does this for the Human Race, what is wrong with that? For the growth of the Human Race, even if it means sacrificing some of the benefits, even his own benefits, what is the harm?
This is stupidity, not malice.
