Shen Zhenyi waved his hand. He was too lazy to say anything else.
If it was just along the way, he might not have refused. But he had no interest in wasting time on someone else's pointless plan.
"I'm going to cultivate in isolation. We'll talk about it later."
It was still a direct rejection.
He would not give face to others easily, especially those who sounded so righteous on the surface but were actually pushing others to their deaths.
What did it have to do with him?
Fan Tongtian's expression darkened. He thought that Shen Zhenyi would be a kindred spirit, no matter what, since he had such a fierce conflict with the beastmen. He did not expect that the other party would not give him any face at all. He could only say coldly, "If that's the case, then I'm sorry for being rude."
Fan Tongtian was not good with words. After a few awkward words, he took his leave.
Hong Du Wei could only send him off. He wanted to persuade him, but Fan Tongtian complained, "I thought that the Third Young Master Shen was a hero. I didn't expect him to be such a coward!"
Hong Du Wei was speechless.
Of course, he knew the philosophy of the Hall of Life Extermination. But … Shen Zhenyi was not a member of the Hall of Life Extermination. They could not force him to risk his life …
Besides, the Hall of Life Extermination could have dealt with it themselves. It was unreasonable to involve Shen Zhenyi.
Just because he had a grudge against the beastmen, did he have to listen to you?
In the past, Hong Du Wei would not have thought so much. He was a hot-blooded youth. After joining the Hall of Life Extermination, he only knew how to fight and never retreat. But Shen Zhenyi had done him a great favor. He was not a coward. The Hall of Life Extermination's actions did not seem reasonable.
He went home unhappily and told his wife about it. Madam Hong sighed. "I wanted to persuade you before. Although the Hall of Life Extermination is loyal and brave, they are also the most determined to fight against the Fearsome Beasts. But their actions are extreme. They are now the enemy of the whole world. Their leader is not very clear-headed."
Fighting against the Fearsome Beasts should have been the only thing in Xuantian City. Of course, there were many people who were greedy for power and position, but in fact, there were many hot-blooded and wise people at the bottom. They knew that no egg would remain intact when the nest was overturned. Only by risking their lives to resist the fierce beasts could they have a good life now. With such a basic understanding, the Hall of Life Extermination had a rigid relationship with the other factions. In the eyes of many ordinary people, it was also a violent organization. This was because its way of doing things was too extreme.
As long as others didn't act according to their rules, they would be considered cowards or even colluding with ferocious beasts. Everyone looked down on them.
Both in the open and in the dark, it was unknown how many enemies he had made.
To put it bluntly, the Hall of Life Extinguishing was hated even more than the beastmen in Xuantian City.
"We can't think too much about it."
Commandant Hong shook his head. "Anyway, when the Ferocious Beasts attacked, I fought with my life. The disciples of the Hall of Life Extermination will take care of it. We are indebted to the Third Young Master Shen and he has his own plans. No matter what Elder Fang does, I will not be so thick-skinned as to ask him to help us. "
His expression was firm, as if he had already made a decision.
Madam Hong was shocked. "You want to go alone?"
She had been with her husband for so many years that she knew Commandant Hong's character like the back of her hand. He was a straightforward person. Once he decided on something, he would definitely do it. However, this matter was very dangerous!
"Elder Fang won't go alone! Although your cultivation has increased by one realm, you don't know what the beastmen and ferocious beasts are plotting. You can't go! "
Fan Tongtian was basically saying that if the Hall of Life Extinguishing handled this matter, there would be great losses and sacrifices. Commandant Hong was the commandant in charge of guarding the city gates. He didn't know much about fighting in the wilderness. If he went, wouldn't he be courting death?
Commandant Hong was silent for a long time before he said, "It would be fine if I was incompetent. However, since my cultivation has reached this level, of course, I have to be responsible for my words. When I first joined the Hall of Life Extinguishing, I didn't know what others were like. I only hoped to destroy the Ferocious Beasts and return the world to the human race so that the next generation wouldn't have to hide behind the city walls to survive. "
This was the slogan of the Hall of Life Extinguishing and Commandant Hong believed it.
His ancestors had all died during the invasion of the Ferocious Beasts. When his father died, he was still young. Even now, when he recalled it, he still felt heartache.
"If I don't go and he doesn't go, who will stop the Ferocious Beasts' plot? We can only watch as the situation worsens. "
He wasn't good at arguing. At this moment, he spoke from the bottom of his heart.
Madame Hong said with tears in her eyes, "If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have waited for you to break through."
If Commandant Hong was still a Sixth Level True God, he knew that his abilities were limited and he definitely wouldn't send himself to death. Now that he was a Seventh Level True God and had obtained the inheritance of the Saber Technique, he could be considered an expert. He would shoulder the responsibility that didn't belong to him in the first place.
Commandant Hong hugged his wife and sighed, "It's hard on you. Don't tell this to the Third Young Master Shen. "
He didn't want his friend to feel pressured because of this.
He wanted to go, it was his own choice.
Madame Hong could only agree helplessly.
She knew that she couldn't stop her husband. In her heart, she had secretly decided that if her husband went to the front line, she would secretly follow him. Husband and wife were birds in the same boat. At most, they would live and die together.
— — The Ancient Martial Arts Sect would visit the Third Young Master Shen soon. She had already established a connection with them, so she didn't have time to care about other things.
The next morning, Commandant Hong went to the Third Young Master Shen to say goodbye. He said that he had a mission and had to go on a long journey. He asked him to stay at home and take care of Madame Hong.
"Oh?"
Shen Zhenyi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You just broke through and don't need to consolidate. If you go out to fight, it will be detrimental to your future foundation."
If it was his own disciple, Shen Zhenyi would probably treat him or give him a medicinal bath to solve the problem. But Commandant Hong didn't have such treatment. He had just greatly improved and needed to digest and absorb what he had gained. Especially the Blade Soul and Sword Essence, he probably only knew about it but didn't know why. It would be very difficult for him to exert the power of the sword that night. It was unwise to go out at this time.
Commandant Hong said vaguely, "The situation is not good now. I have no choice."
Shen Zhenyi looked at him deeply and asked, "Is it because of what that person said yesterday?"
He couldn't remember Fan Tongtian's name.
But he keenly pointed out Commandant Hong's purpose.
Commandant Hong quickly denied, "No, no! How can a pawn of the Life Extinguishing Hall get involved in such a big matter? The higher-ups of the Hall will deal with it. The Third Prince doesn't need to worry. "
He was afraid that Shen Zhenyi would find out his real purpose. It would be awkward then.
Shen Zhenyi smiled but didn't say anything. He didn't expose him.
Cynanchum Chinense whispered, "You may have been a pawn before, but now that your cultivation has improved so much, how can you still be a pawn? That means they don't recognize you!"
