Chu Yang smiled, but he was thinking in his heart, "The enemy's current powerful lineup has already caused everyone to lose confidence … This is not a good sign."
"Chu Yang, the Li Clan has only captured the four of us!" One of the officers suddenly turned serious. "It has nothing to do with you guys. So, as long as we die … the enemy's defense line will relax a little, and you guys will be able to find a chance to get out. "
He paused for a moment. "Let's … split up!"
A jolt went through Chu Yang as he looked at the four officers.
All four of them looked at him with calm expressions. Obviously, this wasn't a sudden question. The four of them had already discussed it many times in secret.
They had finally brought it up now.
The four of them had no hope of getting out anyway, so why should they implicate so many good friends?
At this moment, the four of them had already unknowingly started to view Chu Yang and the others as friends whom they could entrust their lives to.
To hell with the Extraterrestrial Demons!
Chu Yang was silent for a moment before he said, "We've known each other for more than ten days now. I'm sorry, but I haven't asked for your names yet."
The officer who spoke smiled. "We don't have our own names the moment we enter the Interrogation Hall.
I'm Interrogation Officer One. The three of them can be called Second, Third and Fourth. "
Warmth shone in his eyes. "There are a total of 30 of us brothers! We're ranked according to age and not according to cultivation level. But among the brothers, the highest cultivation level is only Interrogation Officer Seventeen, a fourth-grade Supreme Martial Artist … Hurhur, he can't change the overall situation. "
Chu Yang nodded. "What you mean is that you're not going to fulfill Master Lang's last wish? You're just going to let the ten of you sink to the bottom of the sea? "
Interrogation Officer One chuckled. "If we can, of course we will. But judging from the current situation, I believe Master Lang won't blame us even if we can't."
"I know what you mean." Chu Yang nodded. "You want to clear our name and not implicate us. Therefore, you want to sacrifice yourselves in exchange for our safety."
"I'm very touched." Chu Yang said deeply, "But I have to tell you a few things."
"Firstly, we're one entity now. Not only will the Li Clan not let you off, they won't let us off either. Only when we're all dead will the matter of them murdering Lang Yilang and going against the law-enforcement officers be covered up forever. "
"Therefore, even if you die, they will continue to pursue us."
"Secondly, if our brothers die protecting each other in battle, we will be even sadder, but we will also be proud. The only thing I can do is watch you guys die with folded arms. Being protected by you guys like this … is a disgrace. "
"We're all friends now. I'm sure you won't let your friends suffer such humiliation, right?"
"Thirdly, giving up is a habit." Chu Yang chuckled. There was a look of persistence in his eyes as he said, "Perhaps you can die today, and we can survive. But in the end, it was us who gave up on you. Today, I was forced to abandon you in order to survive. Tomorrow, when I am forced to do so again, will I have to abandon them in order to survive? "
As he spoke, Chu Yang pointed at Wei Wuyan and the others.
"If this continues … one day, when I have no choice, I will give up on my parents, wife, and children. Because … by that time, giving up would have become a habit. "
"But in the end, even though I was still alive, I was no different from a beast!"
Chu Yang said solemnly, "Whether it's being a person or doing things, I can't give up."
"Even if it's a hopeless situation!"
Interrogation Officer One and the other three were silent for a while. Then, they said, "Since Brother Chu has said so, then we brothers shall die together! Haha … On the road to the netherworld, we won't be lonely with good brothers accompanying us! "
"Wrong!" Chu Yang said lightly, "Who told you that we're dead for sure?"
"We've already reached this stage. Do you think we can still charge out?" Interrogation Officer Three asked, somewhat astonished.
Faced with such a situation, not to mention the four of them, even Wei Wuyan, Wan Renjie and the others, who had always been full of confidence in Chu Yang, had already lost all hope!
"I remember there's an old saying, 'Heaven never bars one's way out!'" Chu Yang's voice was deep and slow. He said word by word, "There may be hopeless situations, but in hopeless situations, there's definitely still a chance of survival. If even one's own heart falls into hopeless situations after falling into hopeless situations, then that's truly beyond redemption! "
Interrogation Officer One, who was called 'Shengjia', smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Chu, I admit that what you said is very reasonable. Immortal … But for us now, where can we hope for survival? We have no provisions inside, no reinforcements outside, an inescapable net, ten thousand times stronger encirclement, an unfamiliar place, their base camp … "
"Although on the surface, we're in a hopeless situation, but … if we think about it carefully, we have a lot of chances of survival." Chu Yang bent all ten fingers and said, "Look, in the entire continent now, the Li Clan is equivalent to being targeted by everyone. The eight Super Clans are closing in on us step by step. Just before we entered the northwest, the borders of the northwest had already begun to be invaded by the eight Super Clans."
"There must be experts from the eight Super Clans who have already infiltrated into the northwest. As long as we can contact any one of them, we'll have more chances of survival. This is one of the reasons. "
"Secondly, the climate in the northwest is extremely cold and it's difficult for humans and animals to come here. However, the spiritual energy is dense here. Therefore, there must be quite a number of reclusive experts living in seclusion here. If we can find one of them, this isn't impossible, right? "
"Thirdly, why must we be so fixated on charging out?" Chu Yang said, "What if our goal isn't to charge out but just to survive? Then, we can very well turn around and walk back now. Although there are still many obstacles, the resistance will be thousands of times smaller than when we walk out! It's not as if we can't keep our lives, right? "
"And this is still completely relying on our own strength!"
"As for food … We're already Supreme Martial Artists. At the very least, we all know how to transform spiritual energy into water. Thirst won't kill us. As for … hunger … with our cultivation, we shouldn't starve to death even if we don't eat for three months. Don't tell me that we, Supreme Martial Artists, can't even hunt a rabbit in three months? Therefore, we won't starve to death no matter what. "
"The northwest is very big." Chu Yang said, "It's vast and sprawling. Although the Li Clan has been operating here for ten thousand years, it's impossible that they can control all of it, right? Besides, if they push us too far, we can just turn around and head north into the vast wilderness. That's the territory of the Three Stars Divine Clan. No matter how impressive the Li Clan is, they won't dare to provoke them, right? "
"Therefore, there are many ways for us to survive!" Chu Yang said seriously, "But there's only one dead end. Why must we take this dead end?"
"It's not too late to take revenge even ten years later. What's the harm in delaying Master Lang's matter? It's better than all of us being completely annihilated here, isn't it? "
Following Chu Yang's words, the expressions on everyone's faces gradually relaxed.
Indeed, according to Chu Yang's words, they were indeed not without hope.
Although the chances were slim, at least there was still hope, wasn't there?
"Since that's the case, what should we do now?" Interrogation Officer One was energized.
"Now, we need to do this and this …" Chu Yang tried his best to use his brain and sort out his thoughts. Slowly, almost with a pause between each word.
After listening, everyone's eyes were filled with confusion, worry, and even a little … excitement.
At the fifth gate.
The Li Clan's security could be said to be tight. In the sky above, there were two Supreme Martial Artists standing in the air every fifteen kilometers, observing the movements near and far.
On the ground, all the ambushers were even more silent, waiting for their prey.
Even the dense forests on both sides were filled with white-robed men on high alert.
Two second-grade Supreme Martial Artists and one seventh-grade Supreme Martial Artist stood with their hands behind their backs under a snow-white tent at a corner not far from the gate.
"If we still let them escape from the fifth gate with such a lineup, the three of us really don't need to live anymore," said the seventh-grade Supreme Martial Artist solemnly.
This person was the culprit behind the sneak attack on Lang Yilang back then, Li Qinglei of the Li Clan!
The other person nodded and asked, "How's Qingyun?"
Li Qinglei's expression darkened. "He was struck by Lang Yilang's Purple Crystal Hand. From the second day onward, his entire body began to wither! If it had dragged on for another day, his entire body would have turned into Purple Crystal and it would have been difficult to free him. It was me … who shattered his skull with my seventh-grade Supreme Martial Artist cultivation! I've sent him … away. "
The two second-grade Supreme Martial Artists lowered their heads dejectedly. "We must avenge him!"
Li Qinglei said in surprise, "Qingfeng, Qingyu. We're all from the same generation as Qingyun. We're all side branches of the clan and have fought all the way to this day … I know your feelings. But do you know how I feel when I killed Qingyun with my own hands … Hurhur … "
He shook his head. "It's as if …"
"We understand. We definitely won't blame you, Qinglei. "Li Qingfeng and Li Qingyu said solemnly at the same time," It's all that goddamn Lang Yilang's fault! "
"So this time, no matter what, we mustn't let him escape!" Li Qinglei's eyes were sinister. "Given Lang Yilang's injuries … he should be dead … But if Lang Yilang is dead, then there's only a first-grade Supreme Martial Artist left. How could he … have such powerful combat power?"
He was extremely confident in his attack. Logically speaking, given Lang Yilang's injuries back then, there was no doubt that he would have died. But now, the series of events made him more or less suspicious.
Right at this moment, the Supreme Martial Artist who was watching from above sent a telepathic message down. "Someone's here!"
"How many?"
"Just one!"
"One?" The three of them were rather surprised. How could it be just one?
Under everyone's watchful eyes, a person walked over leisurely from the inside. This person's white robes fluttered in the wind. His face was as clear as jade and he was very handsome. What an elegant and beautiful man.
Just like that, he walked on the road and stepped on the snow, yet he looked like a celestial immortal strolling among the clouds. That natural and unrestrained elegance actually came from his face.
It was none other than Chu Yang.
His white robes fluttered in the wind. In just a moment, he had already reached the fifth stage.
"Halt!" A voice shouted from the forest. Then, with a few swoosh sounds, a few people jumped out.
