Fu Rui's method was indeed the simplest. They just had to give it a try to find out if the starship was just passing by or if it was purposely coming for Xiao Chen and the others.
If the starship was weak, it obviously wasn't coming for them. On the other hand, if the starship was well prepared, it was obvious that the news about the Second Wilderness had been leaked. The Eight Barrens had come prepared to kill the Heirs of Kunlun.
Hearing Fu Rui's words, everyone nodded. Finally, after some discussion, Fu Rui, Qiu Ru, and Quan Feng decided to lead their young geniuses to test the starship first. As for the others, they would support them in the dark. If the starship was too weak, they would eliminate it directly.
With the decision made, everyone began to prepare. At the same time, Guan Hong, the kind old man, had purposely found Xiao Chen and Ye Xiao. Apparently, he had something to say.
"Brother Xiao Chen, Brother Ye Xiao, erm …" Guan Hong hesitated as he looked at the two of them. Seeing this, a strange glint flashed across Xiao Chen's eyes, as if he had already guessed what Guan Hong wanted to say. On the other hand, Ye Xiao, who was beside him, said heartlessly.
"Brother Guan Hong, if you have something to say, just say it. Why are you hemming and hawing?"
Ye Xiao didn't notice anything. Seeing this, Guan Hong exhorted for a moment. Then, he looked up at the two and said in one breath, "Brother Xiao Chen, Brother Ye Xiao, there's something I think we should make plans for. If the news about the Second Wilderness has been leaked and the Eight Barrens have come prepared, then we should prepare to evacuate. After all, we can't fight against the Eight Barrens by ourselves. Besides, we don't have any strong Hachibara Senkai accompanying us."
When Guan Hong mentioned the evacuation, Nightingale said nonchalantly. "That's for sure. If Bahuang came prepared, we will definitely evacuate. Don't tell me we're just going to wait for our deaths here …"
Ye Xiao didn't react at first, but when he said that, he was stunned.
Retreating meant giving up on Hong Xiu. Because Hong Xiu was now in the Force of Living Beings, it was impossible to take her away. Once everyone was gone, Hong Xiu would not know what was going on outside. Once she came out, she would definitely be captured by the Eight Desolates.
As for asking for help from the Hachibara Senkai, it was obviously too late. Even if he used the Voice-transmitting Charm, it would be too late by the time the Hachibara Senkai experts arrived.
It was also for this reason that Guan Hong had a hesitant look on his face. His expression instantly turned ugly. Ye Xiao could not help but turn to look at Xiao Chen. Seeing this, Xiao Chen said with a solemn expression.
"Let's observe the situation first."
Indeed, what Guan Hong said would happen. If the news about the Second Barrens was leaked, the best choice for everyone would be to evacuate. But this way, it would mean that they had given up on Hong Xiu.
This matter was unsolvable and Xiao Chen had no solution. However, Xiao Chen had decided that if the news about the Second Barrens was leaked, Xiao Chen would definitely stay behind. Even if he wasn't a match for the Eight Barrens, he wouldn't abandon Hong Xiu.
When Xiao Qing, Bai Ruyue, and Qin Shuirou died, Xiao Chen swore that from then on, he would never abandon anyone by his side and escape.
Therefore, if the news was leaked, Xiao Chen would stay behind alone and get the others to evacuate. As for the outcome, Xiao Chen didn't care. At most, he would die here with Hong Xiu.
He wouldn't abandon anyone and didn't want to suffer the pain of losing someone by his side. Of course, Xiao Chen couldn't tell anyone about this decision.
He spoke to appease Ye Xiao. Hearing this, Guan Hong nodded silently. Then, the group headed towards the starship.
Fu Rui, Qiu Ru, and Lu Xiao led the attack while the others hid in the surroundings to provide support.
It was just a test. As soon as they started fighting, Xiao Chen and the others found that there were only five people on the starship. Moreover, the strongest were only two The Great Sage. This kind of strength was no threat to them at all.
They easily dealt with the five people and destroyed their starship. Everyone returned and gathered together. At this time, everyone couldn't help but secretly sigh in relief.
"It seems that we were overthinking. The news shouldn't have leaked. This starship must have passed by by by chance," Lu Xiao said to everyone.
"That should be the case. Maybe the Eight Desolations is also searching for the Second Desolation." Qiu Ru nodded in agreement.
Everyone thought that the matter was over, but Xiao Chen didn't say anything. Intuition told Xiao Chen that things weren't so simple.
All along, Xiao Chen's intuition had been very sharp and accurate. At this time, Xiao Chen's intuition kept telling him that a great danger was approaching them.
There was a trace of uneasiness in his heart, but Xiao Chen couldn't tell where this feeling came from. Therefore, Xiao Chen was at a loss.
After dealing with the starship from the Third Desolation, everyone was temporarily relieved. After a simple discussion, they dispersed.
At this time, Xiao Chen came to the deck alone. He looked at the darkness around him with a faint light in his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.
Just when Xiao Chen was alone in his thoughts, Long Qing came behind Xiao Chen and asked with concern, "What's wrong, little brother?"
In fact, when everyone was discussing before, Long Qing had already noticed Xiao Chen's abnormality. After all, as Xiao Chen's second sister, Long Qing knew Xiao Chen very well.
Unfortunately, in the face of Long Qing's question, Xiao Chen shook his head and didn't answer. Seeing this, Long Qing didn't ask anymore. She came to Xiao Chen's side and said with a faint smile on her face, "Little brother, I will never leave you again."
After hearing Long Qing's words, Xiao Chen smiled and the worries in his heart dissipated a lot.
It was a silent night. On the second day, although there was no sun or moon in the Second Desolation, everyone still knew the time. Around noon, suddenly, another starship came into their sight. It was also from the Third Desolation.
Needless to say, this starship was naturally the one that the seven elders of the Third Desolation were on. They had already arrived. Xiao Chen and the others discovered it immediately, but it was too late. The danger had really arrived.
The Heirs gathered together again. Everyone had a look of confusion on their faces. Ye Xiao couldn't help but ask, "Why is there another one? What the hell is going on in the Third Desolation? "
