Yun Ran’s displeasure did not affect the people in the cave in the slightest.
He Tu looked at the people around him in so surprise, then cautiously asked, "Are we all still alive?"
The others, upon hearing this, imdiately rolled their eyes at He Tu in irritation. They were all still panting for breath; if they weren’t alive, how could they be in such pain?
"If your eyes are useless, just scrap them. Better than them being decorative!"
They hadn’t imagined that this ti, aiming to be the ones benefitting in the end, they would end up so severely injured.
Originally, according to their Dao progress, living another ten years or so wouldn’t have been a problem.
Now, they felt like their bodies couldn’t handle it anymore, obviously hurting their foundation.
"Indeed, your eyes are nothing but decorations. If not for your poor judgnt, we wouldn’t have been caught up like this!"
The speaker looked at He Tu with reproachful eyes. Most of the good things he had collected over half his life were almost all lost this ti.
He used to laugh at others for losing both the wife and the soldiers; now, he truly couldn’t laugh.
He Tu suffered even more grievously than the others and lost more. Facing the accusations and grievances of these ’plastic’ friends, he pursed his lips.
He regretted it now, but there was no redy for regret.
However, he wasn’t the type to take responsibility upon himself proactively.
Imdiately, he shifted all the bla onto Yun Ran and the person who had previously inford him of Yun Ran’s identity.
But considering Yun Ran had saved him and, in the final mont, helped kill that Flower Demon, without taking the opportunity to kill them and loot them,
He Tu’s dissatisfaction with Yun Ran only amounted to a tenth; most of his grievances were directed towards the Black Robed People.
After ntally preparing himself, He Tu imdiately began to shirk responsibility with confidence.
"You can’t entirely bla , can you? It was your own greed that wanted the treasure. Besides, everything has risks.
You can’t only think of the benefits without considering the risks, can you? That’s too shaless. If you insist on thinking that way, well, there’s nothing I can do!"
The crowd: ...
Although they were shaless people themselves, often driving others to despair,
But now, with He Tu pulling such an unjust act on them, it was infuriating.
If they weren’t injured now, they would have given this old dog He Tu a piece of their mind!
"You old dog, you really have no sha!"
"Hiss~"
One of them, angered, moved a bit too much and pulled at the wound, causing him to sharply inhale.
He Tu nonchalantly waved his hand: "How can you say that’s shaless? None of you are innocent either; we’re all the sa!"
So people are harsh even on themselves; He Tu was evidently one of the best.
Having suffered such a big loss this ti, he must get back at those who leaked information to him, peeling a layer off them before he’d consider it done.
However, he didn’t plan to share that; naturally, the benefits could only be his.
As for the other old fellows, they could only chalk it up to bad luck.
After arguing for a while, they finally turned their attention to their already bandaged wounds.
Looking at the sowhat crude bandaging technique, the few old monsters were noticeably unimpressed.
But for now, even if they disliked it, they had no choice but to make do.
"Do you rember what happened before we fainted?"
The speaker gave a aningful glance toward the cave entrance.
Even though they were unconscious for a while, they could confirm it was Yun Ran who brought them over.
Even the careless bandaging on their bodies was done by Yun Ran.
When it ca to serious matters, the old monsters who had been at odds with each other fell silent.
Clearly, they all rembered what happened before, and rembered it very clearly.
Soone their age could truly be considered astute, and they were well-inford.
They had seen practitioners of Thunder Techniques before, but those people could only borrow magic; its power was limited.
But they distinctly saw Yun Ran casting magic directly and even summoning Heavenly Thunder, a level of magic that was quite unprecedented and defied nature.
"What on earth is the background of this little yellow-haired girl? I’ve never heard of such magic before."
What’s more, she possessed what looked almost like a Treasure Level Magic Artifact.
"Either she’s from a Hidden Clan, or this girl had incredible encounters; otherwise, she wouldn’t be so young with such powerful Dao Doctrine."
Speaking of this, a flash of greed appeared in the eyes of the old monsters; to have a Dao Doctrine and a Magic Treasure capable of summoning Heavenly Thunder...
Any one of these would attract the Xuann people’s pursuit.
Unfortunately, now severely injured, they were like at on a chopping block, truly lacking the confidence to contend with Yun Ran now.
Regrettably, a hint of jealousy arose in their hearts.
Heavenly Dao was indeed biased, giving Yun Ran such good Talent, allowing her to master Dao and magic at such a young age.
And providing her with so many treasures and doctrines, it made their decades of arduous cultivation seem like a joke.
"If only she hadn’t grown up yet, we could have simply set a trap, and this little girl’s treasures and doctrines would change hands..."
Their current mindset was quite complex, filled with blatant envy and jealousy, finally turning into a sigh.
He Tu sighed leisurely, "Just based on her final strike to kill the Flower Demon, we should avoid conflict with her in the future.
We’re eyeing her treasures, but who knows if she’s eyeing ours.
It’s just that this girl has received orthodox Xuan Sect teachings; otherwise, taking advantage of others would have landed us old guys in serious trouble!"
Even now, He Tu sincerely believed in Yun Ran’s integrity.
Otherwise, if they, who had been eminent for half their lives, ended up being caught unaware, it would truly be regretful.
Thinking about this, He Tu’s grievances against Yun Ran diminished further.
The others, upon hearing He Tu’s words, also nodded in agreent.
Clearly, they also felt that Yun Ran’s actions could be described as fair and square.
They weren’t good people, but that didn’t an they couldn’t distinguish between good and bad people.
Encountering a foe who truly had principles and a moral code eased their worries, at least from fear of being plotted against.
"Let’s put all that aside now and focus on healing. Death Mountain is quite sinister. The girl doesn’t make a move against us, but that doesn’t an she will always protect us.
I don’t want to be taken advantage of by those despicable spirits, ending up as a laughing stock!"
