Almost everyone here could kill him in a second. He was only a squad leader before he joined the military. Even in the Guangding General Headquarters, he was only a temporary commander during the mission to annihilate The Broken World. In the end, he fell into a trap and was captured. When he came back to his senses, The Broken World was inexplicably destroyed.
He had no credit, no ability, no experience. He was basically a nobody. Naturally, he did not have any prestige.
At this moment, the tent was suddenly opened. Two little girls appeared outside the tent. They were Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan, who had been crying for a whole night. Their eyes were red and swollen.
The leaders and elders of the various sects in the tent temporarily quieted down.
Although the Thousand Despair Sect and the Thousand Flower Valley were small sects in the martial arts world, they moved quickly. They had long been in contact with the Huaxia government and were now the deputy director of the Guangding General Headquarters.
No matter how inexperienced these two little girls were, at least at this moment, they represented the official orthodoxy.
People who practiced martial arts paid attention to orthodoxy and status. Moreover, these two deputy directors had lost their master because of this matter. The people of Jianghu understood the importance of the master's inheritance. No one would rub salt on the two girls' wounds at this time.
Their master had sacrificed his life for the country. Now that his corpse was still warm, it was reasonable to show some respect.
Otherwise, they would be looked down upon by the people of Jianghu. Even if Chen Guang was dead, the people of Jianghu did not think that the Guangding General Headquarters would be disbanded. What if these two girls continued to be the deputy directors in the future?
"Seniors, someone from the Dark Clan contacted us just now."
Although Xin Qin's eyes were red and swollen, her expression was exceptionally firm.
"What did they say?"
Taoist Cang Song of the Plain Clothes Sect was the most anxious. Just as the person said, Chen Guang was captured under his protection. If they really suffered a crushing defeat this time, even if the Plain Clothes Sect was one of the eight major sects, they would not be able to raise their heads for a few years.
"They want us to withdraw immediately. Otherwise, they will kill the hostages."
The words that came out of Xin Qin's mouth instantly caused a huge commotion.
Some people agreed with her and quickly nodded their heads in agreement. The general idea was that no matter what, they should withdraw first and slowly plan later.
There were also more radical people who strongly opposed it, such as Taoist Cang Song and Fist Tyrant Pan Da.
Taoist Vasp Caelo anxiously said, "This is ridiculous, the reason why they kidnapped Bureau Chief Chen is to deal with Wen family sect leader Wen, if sect leader Wen does not appear, Bureau Chief Chen's life will not be in danger, they are only scaring us!"
Fist Tyrant Pan Da nodded. "That's right. If they wanted to kill Chief Chen, they would have done so immediately. Why would they take him away? Deputy Bureau Chief Xin, we have to avenge your teacher. We can't leave! "
Everyone argued for a few more minutes, but it was no different from before. It was still impossible to reach a consensus.
"Alright, seniors, please stop quarreling!"
Xin Qin's voice finally broke the noisy situation and drew everyone's attention back to her.
Dozens of Jianghu seniors turned their heads to look at her.
Xin Qin took a deep breath. "Retreat!"
Many people secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
However, Taoist Cang Song and Fist Tyrant Pan Da refused to accept it and left just like that. Although most of the pressure would fall on the two deputy bureau chiefs, and others would secretly say that they did not care about their teacher's blood feud, the two major sects would not be able to escape the gossip.
Unexpectedly, Wu Miaowan said, "Commander Xue will lead the troops to retreat first, but we sisters will continue to stay here under our own names. We sincerely request the seniors who are willing to help us to stay and help us to avenge our teacher! Right now, we do not know where Sect Leader Wen is and cannot contact her, but perhaps Sect Leader Wen will need our help. However, as long as we can find Sect Leader Wen and discuss with her, with Sect Leader Wen's unparalleled skills, she might be able to come up with a solution. "
Everyone immediately understood. In order to deal with the request of the evil sects and prevent any possibility of Chen Guang being killed, the two girls gave the order to retreat on the surface, but because of the blood feud between their sect and the current uncertain situation, someone had to stay behind to support them.
However, they had a strong army now, and the other party had set up an ambush. After a portion of the people left, this place would really become a tiger's den.
Sect Leader Wen was indeed trustworthy, but that was something that had yet to be seen.
What if she did not come?
What if she was too conceited and went to the headquarters of Poison Sect or Dark Sect?
Or, what if the two evil sects and the traitors from Six Swords Sect attacked first?
No one would have thought that two juniors with Bone Force would have such courage.
Who would leave, who would stay, this was a question that many people had to face.
Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan pursed their lips and looked at the hesitant Jianghu people. At this moment, no one was in a more difficult situation than them.
Thousand Despair Sect and Thousand Flower Valley were not powerful sects to begin with, and it was Xin Qin who introduced Long Dingtian to Chen Guang.
Dragon Gate Express was on the same side as Thousand Despair Sect and Thousand Flower Valley.
The consequences of Long Dingtian's betrayal were much more serious than Six Swords Sect's Zhuge Ling.
If one were to say that inviting a wolf into the house was a mistake, the first mistake was Xin Qin.
Now that their master was dead and there were no more powerful experts in the sect, they had to sit in such a troublesome position. Their own abilities were not enough to convince the others, and the most difficult thing to bear was that Chen Guang was captured. Both of them were equally anxious.
On one hand, they had to worry about Chen Guang's safety, and on the other hand, they had to avenge their master. The two young girls were in a dilemma.
That was why they came up with the idea of retreating on the surface and staying behind on their own.
However, they knew that they would be in trouble if they stayed behind. There would not be many people who would be willing to help them.
As expected, not long after, many Jianghu people waved their hands and left.
Xue Lin watched anxiously behind the two of them. "This group of heartless and selfish cowards! Otherwise, I'll stay behind with my men! "
However, Xin Qin shook her head and refused. "The other party used the retreat as a condition. Although you have a lot of men, they are all ordinary people. They won't be of much use in a fight between experts. It's better to retreat directly to confuse the public. We came in a hurry this time, and you only brought individual weapons. It's possible to sneak an attack on a Bone Force martial artist, but it's barely enough to deal with an expert at the peak of Skin Force. It will only increase the number of casualties. "
Wu Miaowan nodded. "The two of us will stay behind. Even if the people from the evil sects take action, we can still deal with them."
"But …"
"No buts."
However, when most of the people left, leaving only Taoist Cang Song, Fist Tyrant Pan Da, and a dozen Sect Leader level experts, Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan still could not hide their disappointment.
With the strength of these people, it would be far from enough.
Even Taoist Vasp Caelo and Pan Da both called the other elder back, obviously the two sect heads had decided to give up their lives here, sending one elder back was also to leave more incense for the sect.
The mighty army that was pressing down on the border instantly fell apart because of Chen Guang's capture. This was out of everyone's expectation.
On top of the mountain, Ghost Shadow was holding a telescope and looking at the camp from afar. He sneered. "This group of righteous sects is like this. They rely on their numbers to have some guts. Actually, when the time comes, they're all cowards."
Jiu He stood beside Ghost Shadow. He was also holding a telescope. "But there are still some who are not afraid of death. Those two girls actually didn't leave. Why don't we … "
Ghost Shadow shook his head. "Forget it. Taoist Cang Song and Fist Tyrant Pan Da are powerful. Even if Sect Leader makes a move, he might not be able to take them down easily. Let's wait for Mister Shadow to ambush and kill that Wen Clan's demoness. By then, these people are just small fries. "
Jiu He continued, "I don't know where Mister Shadow got his fortuitous encounter. This time, his power actually increased greatly. But for some reason, I'm still worried whether he can kill that Wen Clan's demoness. "
Ghost Shadow also sighed. "Only the heavens know what's going on. Mister Shadow and Wen Clan's demoness are not at a realm that we can estimate. That little girl is also filled with strangeness. Her power is like a monkey that can fly to the sky. We're afraid just looking at her. If it wasn't for the fact that we have absolute confidence, why would we spend so much effort to capture Chen Guang. "
"You said that you're also called Ghost Shadow. Mister Shadow also has the word Ying in his name. Why are the two of you so different?"
"Scram!"
The two of them chatted happily with each other.
In the Dark Sect of the Poison Sect, Jiu He and Ghost Shadow had a close relationship. Although they were not in the same sect, their movements were almost inseparable. Both of them were skilled in alacrity and were good at gathering information as well.
At this moment, Chen Guang was tied up tightly with hemp rope. He was lying on a metal bed.
The room he was in was underground, and there was only a dim light above his head. Two flies were flying around the light and buzzing.
He was speechless. All the bones in his body were cracked, and Long Dingtian actually found such a thick rope to tie him up like a dumpling.
About half an hour ago, the right side of his butt had been itching. He wanted to scratch it, but he couldn't move. It was extremely uncomfortable.
What was even more infuriating was that from being captured last night until he was locked in this dungeon this morning, he hadn't eaten a single grain of rice or drink a single drop of water. His stomach was rumbling with hunger.
This situation of hunger and thirst had weakened the self-regeneration ability of the Earth Sauce Exploder. Until now, the cracks on his bones hadn't healed.
"What do you guys think this cup is used for? Why does this guy carry it with him all day long? "
Long Dingtian sat on the sofa with his legs crossed. He was holding onto Chen Guang's Heavenly Holy Grail and was sizing it up.
The Golden Flower Matron lit a cigarette. "Maybe he has some weird fetish. It's fine for a man to carry a cup with him, but he actually learned from a little girl and wrapped it with a knitted cover. What a virtue!"
