"But it's already been 12 hours since they left. Logically speaking, that's more than enough time for them to make a return trip!" Ji Zhengwen said worriedly.
They had escaped from there before, but because they had a lot of people and some of them were injured, it would definitely take more time for them to make a return trip.
Now that there were only five of them, and they had a clear goal, 12 hours was definitely more than enough. However, there was no news from them at all. How could he not be worried?
The five of them were all very strong members of the Ji Clan. If the five of them did not return, and with Ji Zhenghong's current situation, it would be very difficult for him to keep his life, then the loss of their Ji Clan would be truly great.
"Maybe they'll be back soon?" Ji Zhengkai said helplessly.
He was also quite worried about Ji Zhenglin and the others, but they were all waiting here now. There was no point in worrying and worrying.
No one knew if Ji Zhenglin and the others' mission was successful. If it wasn't, did something unexpected happen?
No one could know!
The only thing they could do now was to wait. There was nothing else they could do!
Although they were all worried about the safety of Ji Zhenglin and the others, most of them were thinking about how they could harvest more resources in the next three months on this quiet night.
After all, they could only come here once every 500 years. No one would want to miss this opportunity!
The next day, the people of the Nangong Family were already ready.
"What are you all doing?" Ji Zhengwen asked when he saw that the people of the Nangong Family had gathered together and were about to leave after eating the rations they brought.
"It's been more than 20 hours since the people of the Ji Family went to look for the antidote, but they still haven't returned. I'm afraid they won't be coming back.
Although they won't be coming back, we still have to continue our journey. We can't keep waiting here just because they won't be coming back.
Three months isn't a long time. It will pass in the blink of an eye. I believe that none of us are here to wait for someone in the Dead Zone. We are all here on a mission, so we have to hurry on with our journey now, "Nangong Feiwen said loudly.
The people of the Nangong Family had discussed for a long time last night. Regardless of whether Ji Zhenglin and the others could make it back early in the morning, they had to leave.
Time waits for no man. They had already wasted a lot of time for Ji Zhenglin and the others. Twenty or so hours could be used to travel a long distance.
None of them knew where they could encounter those fabled opportunities, so they had to spend time looking for them. It wouldn't be worth it if they were to waste their time here.
"How can we do that? If we leave and my senior brother and the others return without anyone, what should we do? "Ji Zhengkai said with some anger.
"You don't have to worry about that. Don't they have Origin Pearls? As long as this thing is here, they can find us at any time, but we can't keep wasting time here! " Nangong Feiwen seemed to have already thought of everything. He answered without thinking as soon as Ji Zhengkai finished speaking.
"That won't do. Right now, Senior Martial Brother Zheng Hong's situation isn't too good. Right now, he needs the antidote, so he can't hurry. By the time they bring the antidote back, we will have already left. Even if they can find us, it will take a lot of time. Given my senior brother's current situation, how can he waste so much time? "Ji Zhengwen also stood up and objected.
The people from the Nangong Family were really too much. They didn't take the Ji Family seriously at all. Right now, everyone was working together, but these people only had their own interests in their eyes. If it wasn't for Senior Martial Brother Zheng Hong risking his life to save them yesterday, they might have already been eaten by the Armor Python. They wouldn't have been able to act so arrogantly here.
"That's not right. If your senior brother can't be delayed, then we can't be delayed. Three months is only so long. If your people don't return for even a day, do you want us to stay here with you? Do you think that's reasonable? "Nangong Feixing, who was standing beside Nangong Feiwen, said.
Although the heads of both families had promised that everyone would work together, the current situation was special. They couldn't afford to waste time like this.
As the saying went, when a general was outside, he couldn't obey the king's orders!
It was right for both families to work together, but the Ji Family's situation was clearly not good. It would be foolish for them to continue accompanying them.
This was a once in 500 years opportunity. They wouldn't come here to talk about loyalty with the Ji Family!
Only by continuously obtaining resources would the Nangong Family become stronger and stronger. At that time, even the disciples of the Nangong Family would have a higher status among the disciples of the Nine Great Families.
"Don't you think that you're very shameless? Don't forget how you survived yesterday. If it wasn't for my Senior Martial Brother Zheng Hong, you might not even have a corpse left.
To be honest, he's your savior. But now, you're treating your savior like this. Do you think that's reasonable? "Ji Zhengwen said with dissatisfaction.
These people were really too shameless. They had only just come in, but they had already exposed their greedy and shameless nature.
"Since you put it that way, I have to make it even more clear. I admit that Zheng Hong helped us a lot yesterday, but it's a bit too much to say that he's our savior.
Even if he didn't kill the Armored Python yesterday, we still had other ways to get out. How could we have died there?
Moreover, we've been waiting here for more than 20 hours. If it weren't for the fact that the Ji Family is a business partner of the Nangong Family, we would have left long ago.
Yet, you've used this matter to accuse us time and time again. I'm sure everyone here knows who's going overboard! "Nangong Feiwen said in a deep voice.
He was annoyed that these people kept using this matter to criticize him. Although Ji Zhenghong did contribute a lot in this matter, it was too much for these people to always push all the credit to him.
In fact, the current problem was just the conflict between the Ji Family and the Nangong Family. There were only three people from the other three families. What right did they have to say?
The people from the Ji Family were naturally displeased when they saw how arrogant the people from the Nangong Family were.
However, the people from the Nangong Family naturally stood on Nangong Feiwen's side, so this made things very difficult for them.
