Xu Fan's cold voice echoed throughout the crowd, and everyone remained silent, heads bowed.
If the previous silence was due to fearing Xu Fan's strength and trump card, not daring to provoke him recklessly, then now, everyone was speechless.
Indeed, the ruins are fraught with danger, but the greatest threat cos from cultivators of foreign countries!
The news of treasures unearthed in the ruins must have been known to the upper echelons of various countries. Since entering the ruins, the foreign cultivators have been incredibly low-key, blending in like a droplet of water.
If these foreign cultivators were without any sches, everyone naturally wouldn't believe it.
Yet, at such a dangerous mont, they are in-fighting here! Not only abandoning their companions repeatedly but even turning their blades upon them!
Is such behavior befitting a Huaxia cultivator, or a citizen of Huaxia?
Everyone bore faces full of sha.
Foreign cultivators ca prepared, with no fewer than ten Zhiwei Realm powerhouses, proving their intent! Only by trusting each other and working as one can everyone hope to find a slim chance of survival!
Such a simple truth, at such a critical mont, and yet not one among them realized the gravity of the matter!
At this mont, everyone was truly convinced by Xu Fan! Even Ah Ying, kneeling on the ground, had to lower her head.
When issues elevate to a national level, personal gains and losses must be abandoned, and vision must extend farther! Only then can individuals hope to preserve themselves!
"It's my fault. Earlier, I was frightened by the Exotic Beast, and in my excitent, I..."
Ah Ying kneeled on the ground, earnestly apologizing to Xu Fan.
"Little brother, it was my mistake! I wronged you!"
"My previous actions truly embarrassed Huaxia cultivators! Little brother, do punish as you see fit! Even if you were to take my life, I wouldn't bat an eye!"
Everyone also bowed their heads, sincerely apologizing to Xu Fan.
And Ah Niu changed his attitude towards Xu Fan completely, now almost in tears as he apologized. "Little brother, I didn't want to say those words! But at that ti, you saw the situation, my power was so limited, I couldn't protect you!"
"You're magnanimous; earlier, it was I, Ah Niu, who failed to recognize greatness, please don't hold it against !"
"From now on, you are my big brother, and I am your little brother. If you ask to head east, I'll never head west!"
Although everything that happened earlier chilled the heart, it revealed everyone's character, and Ah Niu's nature wasn't actually bad. He had weakly spoken up for Xu Fan when he was "in danger" and surrounded by others.
Despite being threatened and then humiliated, turning cowardly, it doesn't prove Ah Niu was malicious, after all, Xu Fan and Ah Niu were barely acquaintances who didn't even know each other's nas!
Xu Fan waved his hand, not intending to hold anything against them.
Whether it be Ah Ying or the others, Xu Fan never intended to harm them from the start.
With Xu Fan's strength, if he wanted to eliminate everyone, it would only take a thought, effortless! The reason for all this effort was because Xu Fan shared an identity with them.
Huaxia cultivator!
In ordinary tis, they could close the door and fight freely, but when foreign cultivators are involved, it's a different matter. Even if Xu Fan was dissatisfied with others, he could not eliminate them.
Family matters can wait for later resolution, the current priority is to ensure no bullying by outsiders.
At this mont, everyone quietly focused their gaze on Huang Dong.
Previously, the reason everyone fled from the Exotic Beast, and so many died, was inextricably linked to Huang Dong's inaction!
The proud leader of the team fled straight to the back, as if competing for first in a hundred-ter race, only stopping after countless calls from everyone.
Such a cowardly person, how is he qualified to be the leader of all?
Moreover, the habit of abandoning companions among everyone is inseparable from Huang Dong's influence.
Within the team, due to Huang Dong's impact, such an atmosphere had ford, and since it was everyone's first ti in the ruins, self-preservation was difficult, so extre actions weren't surprising.
Under everyone's dissatisfied gaze, Huang Dong, who had been silently restoring his Spiritual Power cross-legged, finally calmly finished, stood up, and patted his rear.
"Eh?"
Under everyone's stare, Huang Dong showed no panic, but curiously gazed back at everyone.
"What happened?"
Hearing Huang Dong's utterly shaless question, everyone's dissatisfaction with Huang Dong was evident.
Huang Dong's position wasn't far from the rest, the argunts were intense, and he repeatedly turned to look this way. Now as responsibility looms, he chooses to evade!
"Brother Huang, we are mourning our deceased companions!"
Ah Ying coldly looked at Huang Dong; her voice was icy, without a trace of fear.
Huang Dong was indeed powerful, possibly the strongest among them! Yet facing Huang Dong now, Ah Ying wasn't flustered at all.
Earlier, Ah Ying had been instructed by Huang Dong to trouble Xu Fan, yet was directly abandoned by him. Hence, Ah Ying had the moral upper hand and displayed no guilt.
And most importantly, at this mont, everyone had been enlightened by Xu Fan, gradually becoming unified! Ah Ying believed that if Huang Dong were to target her, everyone wouldn't stand by idly!
Indeed, that's how it was.
Until now, this team could truly be called a team, with a sense of security among everyone—fearless with companions around!
"As the leader, such occurrences make deeply troubled, and I bear the unavoidable responsibility." Faced with the resolute crowd, Huang Dong had to relent, lowering his head towards Ah Ying.
"However, there are still crises ahead, and we must turn sorrow into strength, continue striving forward!"
Listening to such dismissive words, everyone showed dissatisfaction, yet no one said more.
Why, despite Huang Dong being from The West, did everyone join his team?
Because they need the information held by Huang Dong! They also need the alliance—Western Dark Forces two Zhiwei Realm powerhouses! Therefore, at any cost, Huang Dong must remain the leader!
"By the way, the Exotic Beast attack suggests treasures nearby! Tracking its traces might lead to major discoveries!"
Huang Dong's words finally lit up everyone's eyes.
