Killing Liu Chu ans Xu Fan will die. Not killing him, Xu Fan cannot participate in the evaluation and will also die! Either way, it's death. Since that's the case, why not use this extre thod to gamble for a sliver of life!
Maybe, with this commotion caused by Xu Fan, the higher-ups will be alard, and there could be a turnaround in the situation?
As for how Xu Fan's actions might impact him and any potential punishnt that might ensue, Old Immortal has never thought about it.
Old Immortal's silence left Liu Chu utterly hopeless. His narrow eyes lost their color, and waves of heat poured out, soaking a large patch of ground. With Old Immortal expressing his stance through silence, Liu Chu actually collapsed!
"Don't kill , don't kill ..."
Liu Chu, looking almost insane, kept begging, and then his eyes rolled back, fainting directly in the pungent liquid.
This scene made Old Immortal furrow his brows deeply.
Having watched Xu Fan grow up, Old Immortal naturally knew Xu Fan wouldn't actually kill Liu Chu. He was rely using this thod to pave a way out of a dead end!
Right now, it's hard to evaluate whether Xu Fan's approach is right or wrong, but there is one thing Old Immortal is certain of.
Despite having known Xu Fan's trouble-making ability was quite high, only now seeing it firsthand did Old Immortal realize just how great Xu Fan's trouble-making prowess was!
A slap in the face at the slightest disagreent, kneeing and face-stepping... This approach of either you die or I perish— even if Xu Fan passes the evaluation and enjoys the protection of the Six Gods, with Xu Fan's ability to make trouble, it might not be absolutely safe, right?
At this mont, Old Immortal fell into deep confusion...
In fact, the way Xu Fan handles things is not as Old Immortal imagined. It's not about you dying or perishing. The reason Xu Fan acted so domineeringly and fiercely today is not only because of Old Immortal, but more importantly, Xu Fan simply did not regard the Six Gods!
Even if the Six Gods are mighty, Xu Fan does not fear! Moreover, it's just an old broad from the evaluation departnt?
The originally heated hall instantly fell silent, leaving only the overwhelming sll making people nauseous.
The old and young locked eyes, Old Immortal's face full of worry, while Xu Fan gave Old Immortal a reassuring look, striding out of the hall.
The sll was too intense! Even if Xu Fan could control his breathing and hold his breath for a whole day, the visual impact was enough to let people imagine that sll...
Old Immortal sighed, shaking his head, and followed behind Xu Fan out of the hall.
Since Xu Fan already took action and his own heart was already disturbed, then let everything go to Xu Fan, and cause a great commotion!
At worst, he'd risk losing face, forcibly keeping Xu Fan safe!
As he opened the door and walked out of the hall, Old Immortal froze.
Outside the door, nearly a hundred people densely packed! Encircling the entire hall without leaving any gaps! Among these people, quite a few Old Immortal could na, and many were comrades who had fought alongside him.
And now, the hundred people were gathered together with strange expressions, gazing at Old Immortal with extrely complicated looks. In those eyes were sha, decisions, pain, but more than anything, indifference.
As if instantaneously, sothing severed all ties of past friendship between Old Immortal and them.
What exactly... has happened?
Directly ahead, a white-haired old man strode out from the crowd, a smile hanging on his face, yet one sentence made Old Immortal co to understand.
"Brother Li, why rush in so hurriedly and then rush out? Could it be that you have suffered so grievance?"
"Brother Li, if you have any difficulties, you might as well speak to us brothers, and we will help you seek justice!"
The words of the white-haired old man were spoken with a righteous air; however, Old Immortal sadly realized that the mastermind behind today's events seed to be this white-haired old man before him!
If the white-haired old man truly wanted to help him get justice, why summon so many people?
Of the Six Ministries under the Six Gods, Old Immortal's departnt only had around two hundred people, and half of them were here! This wasn't about getting justice; it was clearly to witness his disgrace!
Although Old Immortal itself didn't show disgrace, the real disgrace was lying unconscious in the foul-slling hall. Yet, the feeling of betrayal made Old Immortal's eyes flush red with rage!
Comrades who were fighting side by side just a few days ago were now cold-faced.
Friends who were laughing heartily just a few days ago were now full of ridicule.
This taste was like a piercing sword embedded in his bone! A pain etched deep in mory! And what hurt Old Immortal the most was undoubtedly the white-haired old man before him!
At this mont, Old Immortal deeply inhaled, forcibly suppressing his inner anger, and asked the white-haired old man before him three words.
"Why?"
The white-haired old man was Old Immortal's comrade, nad He Guang. Decades ago, he joined the Six Gods with Old Immortal, forging an incredibly deep friendship through life and death.
Just a few days ago, He Guang was deeply concerned about Xu Fan's issue, helping Old Immortal devise strategies. But now, He Guang suddenly pulled this one on him!
"Why? Li Nantian! Why are you still feigning ignorance with at this point?"
He Guang, filled with agitation, tore off his mask instantly, his face becoming hideous. "In terms of strategy, cultivation level, and achievents, in what aspect do I fall short compared to you? Why do you always suppress ?"
"Li Nantian, aren't you appreciated by the higher-ups? Aren't you about to join them and keep under? So why are you so miserable now?"
Old Immortal's face instead showed calmness, but anyone could see that beneath that calm exterior lay extre anger and pain!
Old Immortal is soone who places heavy importance on emotions. From the matter of Xu Fan, it's clear that for the sake of those around him, Old Immortal will spare no effort, even if it costs his own future and life!
Yet now, decades-long comrades have chosen to betray him for fa and fortune. Moreover, this betrayal was preditated!
Soone he regarded as a lifeline, constantly plotting to trap him... Who else could understand this feeling?
Hahaha!
Seeing Old Immortal's face with undisguisable pain, He Guang laughed heartily, recklessly, without restraint!
"Li Nantian, don't bla ; it's entirely your own doing!"
"If you hadn't insisted on forcefully arranging so evaluation for your disciple, if you hadn't been so unwise to exhaust that bit of relationship with the higher-ups, do you think I would act against you?"
"So bla your disciple! Bla yourself!"
