Hua Tianlang and Zhou Xing's voices could be heard when the voice transmission talisman was activated.
After listening to him, everyone's faces turned ugly in an instant.
Only now did they realize that their leader had sold all of them out without them knowing it.
After recovering from the shock, everyone's mood changed.
It should be known that not everyone here was loyal to their adventurer team. Some of them were the kind of people who fawned on the strong and wanted to stand by the strong. They wanted to use the strong's advantage to live a better life.
After hearing Hou Feng's words, they might have been shocked and angry at the beginning, but in the blink of an eye, they were relieved and quickly accepted it. In the end, it turned into excitement.
Without a doubt, the Black Light Adventurer team was now the strongest adventurer team in the world. Not only did they have many powerhouses, but they also had experts like Qin Yi and Yun Die 'er.
To be honest, everyone yearned to join such an adventurer team. After all, there were many things that they didn't have to worry about after entering this place.
Even if the sky collapsed, there would be someone taller to hold it up.
Hence, they didn't have to risk their lives to deal with some big problems. This was something that they couldn't enjoy in the past.
After joining the adventurer team, they enjoyed the convenience that the adventurer team brought them. Not only did they have a stable residence, but they also had to bear the responsibilities and risks that they had to bear.
They had to be tied to the adventurer team's future. In other words, they had to risk their lives to participate in the adventurer team's matters. After all, the adventurer team could only survive and have a better future if they put their lives on the line.
However, now that there were powerhouses around, the pressure on each of them would be greatly reduced.
Hence, when Hou Feng said this, most people accepted it. It wasn't a bad thing.
However, even though many people agreed, some people still couldn't accept this reality.
They had to admit that the Black Light Adventurer team was indeed riding on the crest of success and was very powerful. Now that the gap between them had widened, they couldn't continue to bully the other party as they had in the past.
They were also certain that they would curry favor with the Black Light Adventurer team in order to survive. After all, living in a place like this, there was already a lot of danger around them. There was no need to make an enemy that they could not deal with just for the sake of a little pride.
However, even if they accepted flattery and flattery, it didn't mean that they could accept him not keeping anything for himself!
Now, the other party was obviously rushing to swallow them up. If he really didn't do anything, then he would completely become his slave.
"Sorry, we can't agree to your request."
At this moment, Zhou Le finally spoke.
If there was a limit to the number of people who opposed this matter, then there was no doubt that he was the one who resisted the most.
"Although your Profound Light Adventurer Group is indeed very powerful right now, and we can't afford to offend you, it's still not enough."
Calmly, Zhou Le said, "However, my Big Dipper adventurer team has its own dignity. I absolutely won't allow the foundation that my brother and I worked so hard to establish to become someone else's vassal."
"Hahaha."
Upon hearing this, Hou Feng suddenly laughed and said, "You're right! No one wanted to be enslaved. However, do you think you still have room to bargain with me? Not to mention, your Big Dipper adventurer team's commander has long since wanted to join my Profound Light Adventurer Group. Right now, I'm merely telling you on his behalf that his dream has already been realized. "
Zhou Le frowned when he heard this.
When his brother, Zhou Xing, had mentioned this matter, he had tried to persuade his brother against it.
However, Zhou Xing had already told him his thoughts at that time.
Zhou Xing hadn't joined the Profound Light Adventurer Group to become its slave. Rather, he wanted to reap the benefits and see if he could control the Profound Light Adventurer Group in the future.
After hearing Zhou Xing's explanation, he had to admit that he was indeed convinced.
The two brothers had always had a relatively good relationship. Although their attitudes toward certain matters were completely different, as long as one convinced the other, the other would support the idea unconditionally.
Now, however, the situation was clearly different.
This was because the person who had returned wasn't Zhou Xing, but the Profound Light Adventurer Group's members.
What did this mean?
This meant that someone had already seen through their plan. Moreover, the other party was now planning to beat them at their own game and enslave them.
Obviously, Zhou Le, who had always opposed the Profound Light Adventurer Group, couldn't accept this situation. He had even tried to destroy the Profound Light Adventurer Group.
"You're talking about Zhou Xing, right?"
After taking a deep breath, Zhou Le said, "He betrayed our adventurer team. He didn't even dare show his face. He even sold us to you. He … is a traitor to our Big Dipper adventurer team. Now, he no longer has the qualifications to be our commander! Only my words count! "
Zhou Le's heart bled as he said these words.
After all, Zhou Xing was his biological brother. They had grown up together and experienced many things together.
Now, however, he wanted to personally expel Zhou Xing from the Big Dipper adventurer team. This was clearly disrespectful to his elder brother.
Now, however, he felt that he had no choice but to do so. If they didn't sever their relationship with the other party, they would truly be willing to become the other party's slaves.
"I don't care which one of you keeps your word. Right now, our words count the most!"
Hou Feng said indifferently. "Back when you bullied us, did you ever think that this day would come? When you ostracized us and even spoke viciously to us, did you ever think that your future would be like this? Now, everything has been decided. All you need to do is obey! "
Hou Feng's words were extremely domineering. Evidently, he was venting all of the anger he had been holding back during this period.
This was also what Qin Yi had taught him when he had first arrived.
"I didn't come here today to discuss with you whether or not you want to join the Profound Light Adventurer Group."
Hou Feng straightened his chest and said, "This is the Profound Light Adventurer Group's decision and order. You … must obey. The moment your commander said these words, you no longer have the right to refuse our requests! "
Chapter 3021: Unyielding Hou Feng
"Tch!"
Suddenly, a cold snort came from the crowd.
Then, a disdainful voice said, "Who do you think you are? You're just a guy who used to be a gatekeeper in the Profound Light Adventurer Group. What qualifications do you have to criticize us here? "
Following this sentence, everyone present knew Hou Feng's identity.
Before this, many people did not know Hou Feng's identity. They all thought that although Hou Fen's cultivation was not too high, for him to be sent here to announce such an important matter, he should be a very important person.
But they did not expect that the one who came here now would actually be someone who used to be a gatekeeper.
"I thought that the Profound Light Adventurer Group valued us a lot."
"I didn't expect that the one they sent here was actually a gatekeeper!"
"Could it be that in their eyes, we're only fit to talk to gatekeepers?"
"Also, look at that guy beside him, he's simply a sickly invalid! They want to swallow us up, yet they actually sent two pieces of trash here to talk to us! "
"Humiliation! This is a blatant humiliation! "
"No way! I absolutely won't agree to this matter! "
"I won't agree to it either!"
"I was thinking that this was not too bad. Looks like I was wrong!"
"That's right! They already look down on us so much now. If we really join the Profound Light Adventurer Group in the future, won't we be bullied to death by these fellows? "
"I also think that this won't do! They don't even have the sincerity to negotiate, yet they still want us to join them? Dream on! "
…
Everyone spoke one after another, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became a little irritable.
Among these people, there were originally many people who firmly opposed the idea. Now that they found an opportunity, they naturally wouldn't let it go.
Under their instigation, some of the people who had originally held a wait-and-see attitude became resolute.
When they saw the impassioned crowd, the people who had originally given up on resisting were similarly spurred on.
"Haha."
At this time, Zhou Le looked at Hou Feng with undisguised ridicule on his face. Sneering, he said, "Your Excellency, you should have seen that our current attitude is already very clear. I believe that you have nothing to say now, right? Now, please leave this place. This is the Big Dipper adventurer team's territory. It is not your place to act like a fox exploiting the tiger's might. If you really want to negotiate, call your commander or vice commander over. When the time comes, I, Zhou Le, will calmly negotiate with them. "
Zhou Le's words were extremely rude. If not for the fact that it would hurt the Dazzling Light adventurer team's reputation, he would have already ordered Hou Feng and Qin Yi to be expelled.
However, Hou Feng clearly had no intention of retreating. Most importantly, these people's words had indeed provoked him.
However, this kind of provocation didn't make him passive. On the contrary, it made him even more resolute.
He snorted coldly and said, "I know that you look down on my status. I also know that you don't think I have the qualifications to stand here and talk to you. However, I know that the fact that I'm standing here today means that in the eyes of my commander and vice commander, I have the qualifications to stand here! As for you … you are only fit to negotiate with me! "
"What?"
"You bastard! We could've just said that you didn't understand the seriousness of this matter, so we decided to let you off the hook. Now, from your tone, it seems that you want to humiliate us to the end! "
"Don't think that we're that easy to bully!"
"So what if we're the Dazzling Light adventurer team? At worst, we'll just fight to the death! "
"That's right! Even if I die, I'll still tear a chunk of your flesh off! Even if I can't hurt you, I'll at least make you feel some pain! Even if I die, I'll let everyone know that if the Dazzling Light adventurer team wants to be the king of this place, we will never accept it! "
… …
Hou Feng's words did not scare these people away. Instead, it incited the other party's anger even more!
"Hahaha!"
Unexpectedly, Hou Feng wasn't worried at all. Instead, he laughed heartily.
Very quickly, he retracted his smile and said, "What a joke! If I didn't know you all too well, I would've believed you. I would've thought that you were true heroes who would rather die than bend! "
As he spoke, he swept his gaze across the crowd and continued in an extremely calm tone, "Don't forget what you've done before."
Suddenly, his gaze fell on Zhou Le, who was standing at the front of the group. He asked, "Vice-commander Zhou Le, you keep saying that Zhou Xing betrayed you and sucked up to those in power. But I want to ask you, who do you think you are? "
Zhou Le frowned slightly. He then said, "I don't understand what you mean."
Hou Feng said, "Since you want to play dumb, I don't mind reminding you! Back then, you did indeed advocate dealing with our Dazzling Light adventurer team. You think that our Dazzling Light adventurer team is a threat to you. If we don't get rid of it, it will definitely become a huge problem in the future. I don't know if I'm wrong about this. "
"That's right."
Zhou Le didn't deny it. Instead, he said frankly, "That's what I said back then. Moreover, that's what I did.
"It's also because of your policies that my Dazzling Light adventurer team's movements have been restricted."
Hou Feng's speech unknowingly sped up. "For this reason, we even sacrificed the lives of many of our brothers! However, in the world of martial artists, the strong are revered. The weak are prey to the strong. I have no complaints. I also don't have the qualifications or authority to object to your policies. However, did you really do all this just to get rid of a threat? I know that you were the closest to Floating Cloud in the Big Dipper adventurer team back then. I don't believe that Floating Cloud posed a greater threat to you than my Dazzling Light adventurer team did at that time! May I know if Vice Commander Zhou Le can give me an explanation for this? "
Zhou Le's gaze gradually turned cold. A hint of killing intent also flashed in his eyes as he looked at Hou Feng.
Hou Feng's words were tantamount to completely exposing his true colors.
In reality, Zhou Le wasn't a strong-willed person.
Although he had a dignified reason for dealing with Li Qingzhu and the Profound Light adventurer team back then, saying that he wanted to suppress the Profound Light adventurer team and give Big Dipper a better place to live, in reality, his goal had been to curry favor with Floating Cloud and Liu Dong.
In reality, however, his goal had been to curry favor with Floating Cloud and Liu Dong.
He knew that after the incident two years ago, a grudge had been formed between Floating Cloud and the Profound Light adventurer team!
At that time, it was already obvious that Floating Cloud wanted to target the Profound Light adventurer team.
Under such circumstances, why did Floating Cloud choose to deal with the Profound Light adventurer team?
Chapter 3022: Riding a Tiger, Unable to Back Down
Hou Feng's meaning was very clear.
He was saying that Zhou Le had done all of this to curry favor with Liu Dong and the Floating Cloud adventurer team!
Zhou Le knew very well that in Liu Dong's eyes, the Profound Light adventurer team had long since become an existence akin to prey. So long as Liu Dong wanted to, he could do some excessive things to Liu Dong at any time.
If other adventurer teams dared to show the slightest bit of sympathy or assistance to the Profound Light adventurer team, Liu Dong and Floating Cloud would definitely treat them as the same as the Profound Light adventurer team.
On the other hand, if Floating Cloud and Liu Dong worked together to suppress and bully the Profound Light adventurer team, it would prove that they stood on the same front. At that time, it wouldn't be impossible for them to become Liu Dong's companions.
Back then, Zhou Xing had advocated roping in the Profound Light adventurer team so that it could continue to exist and keep the Floating Cloud adventurer team in check.
Unfortunately, in the end, he had been convinced by Zhou Le.
Zhou Xing felt that Zhou Le's words about the benefits of roping in powerhouses and currying favor with experts made sense.
After being convinced, Zhou Xing naturally began to target the Profound Light adventurer team.
Originally, everything had been going according to his plan.
Regarding the Celestial Sect ruins, he was the one who suggested for the few clans to share the treasures within the ruins.
Moreover, in his eyes, there was a high probability that his actions would cause the Profound Light adventurer team to suffer a great loss.
However, he had never imagined that just when he thought that his plan was flawless, Qin Yi's appearance would cause a huge change in the situation.
Now, Liu Dong was dead, and Floating Cloud was scattered. Even if they could be reorganized, the remaining members would have no future.
On the contrary, the Profound Light adventurer team, which he had always treated as trash and a tool to build a closer relationship with Liu Dong, had now become the strongest adventurer team.
After knowing this news, did he want to mend his relationship with Liu Dong again?
The answer was, of course, yes.
However, he couldn't do that anymore.
This was because his previous strategy had been adopted. After knowing this, Zhou Xing naturally felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. His attitude towards Zhou Le had also become somewhat cold.
Obviously, he felt that because of Zhou Le's words, he had lost the opportunity to build a closer relationship with the Profound Light adventurer team and Li Qingzhu. As for Zhou Le's words, he might not necessarily listen to them anymore.
Of course, there was another reason. Zhou Le couldn't bring himself to do so.
If someone who had previously firmly opposed the Profound Light adventurer team suddenly changed his mind and became a staunch supporter of the team, how would others view him then?
Therefore, he felt that he didn't have the courage to change his strategy now. Therefore, he decided to fight with the Profound Light adventurer team to the end.
However, it was clear that his attitude towards the Profound Light Adventurer Team had improved somewhat.
If it was before, Hou Feng might not even be able to enter this door today.
"Vice Captain Zhou Le, I think you should have considered it clearly by now, right?"
It was rare for him to have a chance to stand up high. Of course, Hou Feng wouldn't miss it, "Actually, you are no different from your brother. This is because the two of you are people who curry favor with those in power. I wonder if you have anything to refute my words? "
Zhou Le glared at Hou Feng. At this moment, the anger in his eyes was completely ignited.
"I advise you to get the hell out of here right now."
Zhou Le's voice was extremely cold. A thick murderous aura was about to burst out of his body. "Otherwise, I won't care who you are. I will make all of you stay here."
Clearly, there was a thick threat in his voice. He wanted Hou Feng to leave. He wasn't willing to accept this reality anymore.
"Then I want to see exactly what kind of ability you have to make all of us stay here!"
At this moment, a cold voice came from Hou Feng's side.
A thin, middle-aged man walked over from Hou Feng's side.
"Who are you? Do you think you have the right to speak here?"
Zhou Le glanced at Qin Yi before quickly retracting his gaze. The disdain in his eyes was completely exposed. Obviously, in his opinion, Qin Yi had long been a piece of trash without any deterrence.
"Of course I have the right to speak here."
Qin Yi shrugged his shoulders, ignored Zhou Le, and turned to look at Hou Feng. Suddenly, he laughed and said, "Big Brother Hou, it's been hard on you. Now, let me do all of this. You can stay aside and take a break. "
"B * stard!"
After being ignored, Zhou Le's mood instantly turned sour. "It seems like you guys are deliberately trying to make life difficult for me! In that case, you can all die here. "
As he spoke, the power in his body started to boil. He looked as if he was ready to start a fight and wanted to use his own methods to scare the other party away.
However, in reality, this was absolutely impossible.
With Qin Yi's strength, if he wanted to deal with people like him, it would be almost effortless.
At this moment, he raised his finger gently and flicked it in the air. Immediately, a golden light shot out from his finger and hit the outside.
Very quickly, Zhou Le's body took a few steps back. His face became incomparably pale as he looked at Qin Yi in horror.
"Who exactly are you?"
To be honest, if Zhou Le still couldn't determine that the other party couldn't be a sickly person, then he would have been the deputy leader for a few years in vain.
Qin Yi chuckled. He didn't say anything, but a light flashed on his body. Then, a young man with a faint smile on his face appeared beside everyone.
"You … You're Qin Yi?"
At this moment, even Zhou Le couldn't keep his cool.
After all, he was the most famous and powerful person in the recent period of time.
Although Zhou Le looked like he didn't care, in reality, his fear of Qin Yi had risen to an extreme level.
Now, he finally understood why a small fry like Hou Feng dared to come here and taunt him unscrupulously. He even put on a fearless look.
It turned out that there was actually such a powerful existence beside the other party!
"Just now, you said that as long as I'm here, you'll have a good talk?"
Qin Yi looked at the other party and asked calmly, "Am I right?"
Li Tian said.
Two days ago, he thought that it was set to be automatically updated, but today he realized that it wasn't. Therefore, the chapters from two days ago were updated together with today's. Sorry.
