At this moment, Elder Mei has completely torn off all pretenses and no longer cared about putting up a front.
These people are going to die anyway so who am I putting on an act for?
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a wave of black energy rushed towards her and pushed Elder Mei back a few steps. Then, a grim voice rang out, causing her heart to grow cold.
"If you don't want to be fed to the dragons, shut your mouth!"
Ptui!
Elder Mei spat out a mouthful of blood and stared in shock at the black-robed man in front of Gu Ruoyun. Her face was drained of color.
She could not understand why this man had stepped out to save Gu Ruoyun.
Of course, Elder Mei could not help but blurt out, "My Lord, why are you helping them? If they go down, we'll have an extra ray of hope! After all, this single-plank bridge can't withstand the weight of so many people. "
"That's right." The black-robed man laughed icily. "The single-plank bridge certainly can't withstand such a heavy weight and we do need a few people to go down. How about you sacrifice yourself to protect us?"
Elder Mei's expression changed drastically. She could not understand why the black-robed man was helping Gu Ruoyun.
"My Lord, these people's powers are weak so they won't be of much use in the upcoming battle. I'm already at the late-stage of the exceptional state so I'm not just a little bit stronger than them. Under these circumstances, the weaker ones will have to sacrifice themselves for us, the more powerful cultivators!"
The black-robed man's lips curled into a disdainful smile. His dark eyes were cold and his body was filled with murderous intent, filling the entire single-plank bridge with murderous intent.
"However, I don't want to see you either!"
Sacrifice?
I'm not related to them at all so why should I sacrifice myself for them?!
"Elder Mei!" Elder Yun interrupted Elder Mei in a low voice. She then looked at the group in front of her and said, "Lady Gu, Sir Feng, I'm sorry. Elder Mei had only made this decision to protect everyone's interests. I apologize on her behalf. We will encounter many more dangers on the road ahead so I hope that everyone will stop fighting amongst themselves!"
It was obvious that Elder Yun was much more intelligent than Elder Mei.
Even though she was apologizing to Gu Ruoyun, her every word was criticizing Elder Mei.
In her apology, Elder Mei had wanted to feed Gu Ruoyun to the dragon for the sake of the public's interest. Gu Ruoyun and the others' refusal had harmed the public's interest! They were the most immoral people!
Indeed, after hearing Elder Yun's words, everyone's eyes turned towards Gu Ruoyun and the others. Their eyes were filled with blame and dissatisfaction, feeling that Gu Ruoyun had harmed their interests...
Gu Ruoyun smiled coldly and did not try to defend herself. In the hearts of these greedy people, everyone must be sacrificed for their own benefit. Otherwise, it would be the same as harming their own benefits...
Therefore, when faced with such a person, she couldn't be bothered to say anything.
The black-robed man frowned slightly when he heard Elder Yun's words. A murderous intent flashed in his grim eyes but he controlled it in the end.
At the very least, these people were still of some use! There were countless dangers ahead, and he still needed them to explore the perilous areas.
"Roar!"
After the dragons tasted the delicacy, they continued to wait for the humans to fall down. However, after waiting for a long time, they didn't see any more food. They couldn't help but become angry and roared.
