In the blink of an eye, everyone had begun moving outside.
The young won who had always followed Wang Zhan showed no sign of leaving either.
After glancing at them, Wang Zhan spoke slowly, "It’s not practical for you to keep following like this. You should all return to your hos for now. After all, I still have my own matters to attend to, and there’s really no way I can take care of so many of you."
He looked at the crowd of young won following him; there were at least several hundred. He couldn’t possibly take so many people with him through the sea domain. After all, there were demonic beasts in the sea domain. Moreover, since it was a restricted area, the strength of the demonic beasts there was incredibly difficult to imagine. If a fight broke out, even Wang Zhan wasn’t certain of victory. Besides, even if the demonic beasts were outmatched, escaping wouldn’t be difficult for them.
Most importantly, so of Wang Zhan’s ans were sowhat restricted in this sea domain.
The young won glanced at each other; none of them intended to leave. They refocused on Wang Zhan, and one of them stepped forward. She walked to Wang Zhan’s side, lowered her head, and whispered, "Many of us here are unfortunate. Although our hos are all in the sea domain, our families have been scattered due to the four Priests. Finding them is easier said than done."
"Moreover, the sea domain is fraught with nurous dangers. If we were to leave you, our situation would beco even more precarious."
Everyone nodded in agreent, obviously sharing the sa view as the young woman who spoke.
Wang Zhan awkwardly looked at them and then turned to Jiang Yin. "What should I do?"
Jiang Yin coughed lightly, clutching his chest, and shook his head. "I’m injured right now, so it’s better not to ask about these things. Besides, I’m not interested in them," he replied.
"But if you really need a solution, I can suggest one. You could establish a refuge in the sea domain for them. That way, they could stay safely here."
Wang Zhan looked sowhat troubled and sighed. He moved next to Jiang Yin and said in a low voice, "Stop making things hard for . If I do establish a refuge, these people would surely enter it. Then, when we want to leave, how would they possibly agree?"
"This won’t work, and that won’t work either. I think you’re deliberately making things difficult for ."
Jiang Yin shrugged helplessly. "Could you please look at my condition? I’m seriously injured and can barely hold on much longer. Yet, you’re dumping all these matters on . Are you worried that I’m not dying fast enough?"
In the end, Wang Zhan sighed awkwardly, choosing not to say anything else.
Luo Xue, who was standing nearby, had always stayed close to Wang Zhan. It was clear that no matter what decision he made, he would not abandon her. Thus, she did not need to worry about anything.
Han Junxiong quickly walked to Wang Zhan’s side. After glancing at the young won following them, he chuckled and suggested, "Since all these people are fond of you, I have a good idea. Why don’t you hold a selection for a bride?
"Anyone you like or find attractive could stay. After all, we have so many people with us. When Xiang Tian and his n arrive to rendezvous with us, even if you desire a harem, we’ll be able to protect them."
Although the young won’s faces flushed considerably upon hearing his words, they showed no fear; in fact, they seed quite eager to establish so connection with Wang Zhan.
Of course, on the Star War Battlefield, the strong were naturally blessed. Just like Wang Zhan, with his great power and his act of rescuing everyone from danger, how could these young won not secretly admire him?
Luo Xue, at the side, couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh.
Wang Zhan looked utterly embarrassed. He glared at Han Junxiong and snapped, "If you dare spout any more nonsense, believe it or not, I’ll break your arms and legs and leave you stranded in this sea domain forever!"
Startled, Han Junxiong hurriedly stepped aside, daring not to say another word.
Wang Zhan was still pondering how to settle these young won when he saw a group of people approaching them from a distance.
Xiang Tian, who was nearby, was the first to spot Luo Xue beside Wang Zhan. Xiang Tian quickly rushed to Luo Xue’s side, swept her into his arms, spun her around in a circle, and exclaid with a look of pleasant shock, "I knew you were in the sea domain! I am well aware of Brother Wang’s incredible strength. He was bound to save you."
"Now it seems everything is developing as we anticipated. This is truly wonderful!"
Luo Xue also excitedly hugged Xiang Tian. After all, among everyone present, their relationship with Wang Zhan was unparalleled. The friendship forged between them through countless life-and-death situations was not sothing ordinary people could comprehend.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xiang Tian noticed the crowd of young won behind Wang Zhan. He gave Luo Xue a puzzled look, then pointed at them and slowly asked, "What’s going on here?"
Luo Xue giggled, covering her mouth. She pulled Xiang Tian aside and whispered, "Among them, there might very well be your future sister-in-law."
Xiang Tian instantly understood. He glanced at Wang Zhan and then said with a laugh, "Brother Wang, you’re not actually planning to select concubines, are you?"
Wang Zhan glared at him, then quickly strode over to Xiang Tian and kicked him in the backside. "Looks like your strength has recovered, huh?" he said irritably. "You actually dare to speak to like that?"
Han Junxiong, who was standing nearby, also chid in. He pulled Xiang Tian aside and said with a grin, "I just suggested the sa thing to Brother Wang. It seems we’re on the sa wavelength! Brother Wang didn’t seem too keen at the ti, but we’re all n; we understand. He’s just being modest, that’s all."
Everyone burst out laughing; even the usually stoic Jiang Yin clutched his stomach, playing along with the amusent.
Wang Zhan rely shot everyone a resentful glare and then brandished his Deep Fire Blade. Seeing that Wang Zhan was genuinely angered, they finally stopped joking.
Jokes aside, the matter of these young won still needed to be properly addressed. They couldn’t keep them by their side indefinitely, nor could they simply abandon them in the sea domain. Wang Zhan had already briefly assessed them: most of the young won didn’t know any cultivation techniques and had no cultivation base whatsoever. In other words, they were ordinary people.
And while a few of them knew so cultivation thods, their strength was extrely ager. Even if they encountered a level 1 demonic beast, dealing with it would be no easy task.
Therefore, if they were left here, they would undoubtedly et a grim fate.
At this thought, Wang Zhan hesitated, truly at a loss for what to do. What on earth should I do?
"Why don’t we do as I suggested?" Jiang Yin, no longer joking, offered a practical suggestion. "Let’s take everyone and find a place to settle down for now, then we can make further plans. After all, most of us are injured and need so ti to rest and recover."
Wang Zhan hesitated for a mont, but eventually nodded.
After all, Jiang Yin did have a point. Right now, all of them had sustained so minor injuries. Even Wang Zhan needed to recuperate, let alone Jiang Yin and the others.
Moreover, Xiang Tian and Luo Xue weren’t in peak condition either. Coupled with the unknown dangers of the sea domain—Wang Zhan didn’t even know what lurked in the surroundings—it was imperative to be cautious.
「In the blink of an eye, they had reached an isolated island.」
After settling in the group of young won, Wang Zhan walked off by himself and sat down on a reef.
Luo Xue approached him step by step and sat down beside him. "Brother Wang," she began, "are we really going to stay here indefinitely to look after these young won?"
Wang Zhan was montarily stunned, then a faint smile touched his lips. "Are you joking? They might not know my personality, but surely you do? My sole desire is to improve my cultivation and secure my footing on the Star War Battlefield. Other factors won’t sway from this original intention. How could I possibly keep them by my side? That would just be a waste of my ti and life."
"However, I genuinely haven’t figured out how to handle them properly yet, which is why I’m hesitating."
Luo Xue sighed, shaking her head helplessly. "Won are indeed troubleso."
Hearing her say this, Wang Zhan almost laughed out loud. "Why does it sound like you’re excluding yourself from that statent?"
Luo Xue moved closer to Wang Zhan, hugged his shoulder, and said with a smile, "Can our relationship really be compared to theirs?"
Wang Zhan shook his head helplessly. He glanced at Luo Xue and then asked, "Speaking of which, I haven’t yet asked how you got captured by those people?"
