"That shouldn't be possible, right? The only ones who know Elder Qin's identity are us city lords. No one else in the alliance knows, unless there's a traitor among us city lords, "City Lord Shi said.
"Indeed, all of us city lords should know that it's impossible for a traitor to leak information to the Cheng Family!" The other city lords also said.
"If it's not our people, is it possible that it's the problem with the other alliances?
After all, there are experts from other dynasties coming to support them. Maybe they leaked the information! "City Lord Luo speculated again.
"Maybe, but there's no point in talking about this now. Elder Qin and the others are our biggest support. I didn't expect them to be trapped by the Cheng Family so quickly.
Right now, I'm afraid we only have two choices. We can either retreat with our soldiers, or we can kill our way out and save Elder Qin and the others. What do you all think we should do? "City Lord Shi asked the other City Lords.
"Is there a need to ask? Of course it's to quickly send our people back. Even Elder Qin and the others were tricked by the Cheng Family so quickly. Even if we fight our way out, what if the Cheng Family has other formations waiting for us? "A city lord said.
"Yes, the Cheng Family's formation is so powerful that even Elder Qin and the others couldn't break it. If we were trapped inside, we wouldn't even think about breaking it!
Therefore, I also think that we should quickly take our people and leave this place. Otherwise, when the Cheng Family makes a move on us, we won't even have the chance to escape! " The other city lords obviously didn't want to be enemies with the Cheng Family. Even Elder Qin and the others had lost, so they didn't want to continue fighting with the Cheng Family.
"Actually, I've said it before. These people are not reliable at all. We should return to our own alliance and run our own alliance honestly.
If not for the fact that we trusted Elder Qin and the others, and even convinced us, we definitely wouldn't have come here.
Maybe the Cheng Family is already holding a grudge against us now. This time, we really went for wool and came home shorn. "Someone even started to complain.
Because everyone's alliance was near the Cheng Family, the Cheng Family had developed here for so many years, so everyone had some understanding of the Cheng Family.
This was especially so when they heard that the Cheng family had defeated the Sacred Dynasty a few months ago. This was enough to show how powerful and terrifying the Cheng family was.
What was hateful was that these people insisted on saying that Elder Qin and the others had the ability to defeat the Cheng Family. Otherwise, they definitely wouldn't have spoken out together with the other alliances to suppress the Cheng Family.
After all, if they failed, they would become enemies with the Cheng Family.
Perhaps in the past, the Cheng Family had no intention of annexing everyone's territory. But now, with such a ruckus, the Cheng Family would no longer coexist peacefully with everyone.
Therefore, many City Lords began to regret it now.
"Don't simply push the blame onto us. It's not like you haven't seen the strength of Elder Qin and the others. Back then, I didn't believe them either. However, they are much stronger than us.
Moreover, they are from a dynasty. If we want to deal with the Cheng Family, how can we oppose it?
In addition, this time, it wasn't just the experts from the Painting Dynasty who had made a move. Didn't the other dynasties also send experts to deal with the Cheng Family?
It is precisely because of these reasons that I feel that this matter still has a chance of success. " City Lord Shi saw that everyone was complaining. Although no one said a name, he knew that everyone was talking about him.
After all, he was the one who contacted everyone at the request of Elder Qin. Now that everyone was blaming him, it was understandable.
However, although he understood, he didn't think that it was his fault.
If they wanted to blame something, they could only blame themselves for not being strong enough. If they had enough strength, they wouldn't need to look at others' faces.
More importantly, they belonged to the Painting Dynasty. It could be said that the Painting Dynasty was their master. Since their master had spoken, how could they dare to refuse?
"Yes, we can't blame City Lord Shi for this matter. Moreover, we are all in the same boat. Even if City Lord Shi didn't ask us to make things difficult for the Cheng Family, Elder Qin would have found us!" City Lord Luo said.
"Everyone, don't be in a hurry to shirk responsibility. No matter what the result is, we can't deny that we have offended the Cheng Family.
If we all return to our own territories now, then we may be directly annexed by the Cheng Family like the Changhong Alliance.
Although Elder Qin and the others are trapped by the Cheng Family, they are still alive. As long as we rescue them, then perhaps the result will be different.
Even if we fail to attack the Cheng Family, I think as long as we have the help of Elder Qin or the Painting Dynasty, we won't be defeated by the Cheng Family one by one, right? "City Lord Ping said.
"City Lord Ping is right. If we leave now, we won't just be offending the Cheng Family. We'll also be offending Elder Qin and the rest. We'll even be offending the Painting Academy. Do you think our alliance will be able to survive peacefully?" City Lord Luo said in agreement.
"Then you mean that we should start a war with the Cheng Family and rescue Elder Qin and the others?" someone asked.
"This may be our only chance. If we offend both sides, I'm afraid that neither the Cheng Family nor the Painting Dynasty will let us go, right?" City Lord Ping said.
"But the Cheng Family is so cunning. Perhaps they have already prepared a trap for us. If we are trapped, then wouldn't we be finished with the alliance?" Although City Lord Ping's words made sense, they were still a little unwilling to take this risk.
Even if they knew that this would offend the Painting Dynasty, even if the Painting Dynasty wanted to find trouble with them, that was a matter for the future.
If they started a war with the Cheng Family now, perhaps they would die first.
Some people were willing to die later. No one wanted to die early.
"If you don't try, how do you know that the Cheng Family has prepared a trap for us? Perhaps this is their only trap?
Then won't we lose the chance to save ourselves? "City Lord Ping retorted.
"This …" Everyone was stunned. It seemed to make sense. However, even so, this was still a difficult decision for them.
"Don't you even have this little bit of courage? If we miss this chance, we will die no matter what.
