"Deputy Leader Qin, can you not do it?"
Just as Xu Pao was in despair and thought that he was definitely going to die, Hou Feng stepped forward and pleaded for mercy for Xu Pao to Qin Yi.
Qin Yi lowered his head and looked at Hou Feng calmly. He asked, "Are you sure you want to plead for him?"
Although Hou Feng was not sure himself, Qin Yi had clearly told him that Xu Pao had wanted to kill him.
Qin Yi had not interacted with Xu Pao for long and did not know what kind of person he was.
However, according to his own principles, if someone wanted to kill him, he would definitely kill the other party before the other party could make a move.
This was the most important thing he had learned in the few years he had lived in the Divine Land.
After all, the world of warriors was always crueler than the world of mortals. Killing and being killed were common occurrences.
Actually, Qin Yi had arrived long before the two sides started arguing. The reason why he had not appeared was because he wanted to see what Xu Pao was like.
After a period of observation, he realized that Xu Pao deserved to die and there was no excuse for him.
However, just as he was about to take action, Hou Feng, the target of his plot, actually took the initiative to plead for mercy for Xu Pao. No matter what, this was a surprise to him.
"Actually, I know that he wanted to take the opportunity to kill me today."
Hou Feng lowered his head and said, "Even so, I still feel that he does not deserve to die."
Qin Yi frowned and asked, "Why?"
"Actually, this is understandable."
Hou Feng explained, "After all, we are living here without any threats or goals. Similarly, there is no hope of becoming stronger. Once we are in such a state, we will naturally think of other things. In the end, this is still my fault. "
Qin Yi frowned even more. He only looked at Hou Feng without saying a word, clearly waiting for Hou Feng to speak.
Hou Feng raised his head to look at Xu Pao before continuing, "You and Leader Li entrusted this place to me. Apart from managing everyone here, I have to be able to see through their thoughts in time. It's a pity that I've always been focused on cultivation and didn't see where his problem was in time, nor did I help him in time. To be honest, it was my negligence that led to this situation today. So, I would like to ask for your leniency. "
Hou Feng's words immediately attracted the surprised gazes of the surrounding people.
Evidently, they did not expect Hou Feng to place all the blame on himself.
In fact, they supported Qin Yi's decision to kill Xu Pao.
After all, to be able to come this far, they were no longer inexperienced children.
In their hearts, there was a scale to measure.
If Xu Ming dared to treat them like that, they would not hesitate to kill him if they had the chance.
However, not only did Hou Feng not want to kill the other party, he even wanted to take responsibility for it. Such behavior was both shocking and incomprehensible.
However, at this moment, Qin Yi's cold gaze gradually softened.
Obviously, although the others did not understand Hou Feng, he understood a little.
In Hou Feng's eyes, although Xu Pao was hateful, he was also a pitiful person.
If it were not for the fact that he could not see hope and the future, why would he think of such meaningless things?
In fact, be it Xu Pao or Hou Feng himself, they both knew that there was no benefit in being a leader in such a place.
The reason Xu Pao had done that, apart from his ambition, was that he could no longer see hope. He wanted to kill Hou Feng and seize power to prove himself.
Moreover, he did not like Hou Feng's behavior of forcing him to cultivate every day. To him, it was a form of torture.
As long as he successfully seized power, he would be free in the future.
In fact, from this perspective, although Xu Pao's behavior was wrong, it was understandable.
"Big Brother Hou, since you're pleading on his behalf, I'll spare his life!"
Qin Yi sighed and said to Hou Feng.
In fact, in Qin Yi's eyes, even though Xu Pao's behavior was understandable, he could not tolerate what he had done. Therefore, he could not let Xu Pao live.
However, he still considered that the atmosphere within the division that Hou Feng was in charge of was a little off.
He had been standing outside for a long time, watching for a long time, but from beginning to end, he did not see a single person step forward.
Although there were not many people present, there were still hundreds or thousands of them. Among so many people, no one actually chose to stand up and face this matter together with Hou Feng.
There was no doubt that Hou Feng's prestige among the crowd was not high during this period of time.
He didn't even have a true friend, and no one spoke up for him at such a critical moment.
If Qin Yi really killed Xu Pao now, it would probably make these people hate Hou Feng even more.
Sometimes, killing is not the answer.
If he made a move now, he would be able to vent his anger. However, the people around him still felt that Hou Feng had no ability and could only stand behind a powerhouse like Qin Yi, borrowing Qin Yi's hand to help him kill his enemies.
Although this could indeed have a certain deterrent effect, it was very likely that it would cause others to have rebellious thoughts and get further and further away from Hou Feng!
The purpose of sparing Xu Pao's life was to let people know that Hou Feng had a say in front of Qin Yi. Moreover, the relationship between them was definitely not as simple as a superior and subordinate, but more like a friend.
This way, while others could feel Hou Feng's benevolence, they would also feel a trace of respect for him.
"Thank you, Deputy Leader Qin!"
Hearing that Qin Yi had agreed to his request, Hou Feng was also very grateful.
Qin Yi waved his hand and said, "Big Brother Hou, you don't have to call me that. We are friends. You can just call me that like before! Moreover, although I promised to let him live, it doesn't mean that I will let this matter go! "
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Hou Feng and said, "With Big Brother Hou pleading for you, I will let you live. However, if I don't punish you, the price of rebellion will be too low. Now, you can get out of here. From today onwards, you are no longer a member of my Black Light Adventurer Team! "
By doing this, Qin Yi was obviously knocking on the mountain to warn the tiger.
He wanted to use this matter to warn others that if they dared to rebel, even if they didn't die, they would have to pay a painful price!
This was necessary, and it was also very meaningful.
