Chapter 779: Stay or Go
Chapter 779: Stay or Go
"Humph! You're asking even though you know the answer! You kidnapped Hu Mei, killed several Xianxia Sect elders and disciples, and even injured the Xianxia Sect's Young Master, Gu Feng. Don't you dare admit it?"
"You're talking absolute fucking nonsense! If it was my benefactor who kidnapped that girl, why did he ask me to send her back? As for murder, does that mean if someone wants to kill you, you have to stretch out your neck and let them slaughter you? You're so fucking shameless!"
Upon hearing this, Vulture couldn't help but retort loudly.
"Nonsense! You're absolutely talking nonsense! Senior Li calls that girl "sister" all the time, so affectionately! He's completely obedient to her and always fulfills her every request. If you didn't know better, you'd think they were a Taoist couple. How could there be any kidnapping?"
White Rabbit also chimed in.
The monk who spoke boldly was a man of his words. He was just too excited to stop talking, and he blurted out what he said. He was in a dilemma, so he just went all out! He was going to die anyway, so he might as well die quickly! He immediately shouted:
"Stop your hypocritical flattery! I sent her back probably because you guys are tired of playing with her, right? Even if Hu Mei was sent back as you said, those Xianxia Sect elders and disciples who died couldn't be fake, right? Stop talking so much nonsense, I don't want to hear it! You can kill me or chop me up as you please, I, Wu Changlin, will never frown!"
"Master Wu is right! You can kill me or chop me up as you please, I, Jiang Liming, will never frown! You evil invaders, don't even think about having any evil intentions on me!"
The old man then said loudly, "Rather than waiting here in agony for an unknown fate, it would be better to provoke the other party and make him kill me."
"Right! Stop your hypocritical talk! If you have the guts, give me a quick death!"
……
Suddenly, cries of death were heard everywhere! In their opinion, Li Yu and others had said so much just for ulterior motives!
You know, the reason why they surrounded and killed Li Yu and others was not entirely because of the quota to join the Xianxia Sect, but also because they knew that Li Yu and others were from outer space!
Xenophobia is a common trait among all living things! No one wants a stranger to enter their home! If the stranger is not a threat, it's fine. But once they feel threatened by a stranger, most natives will become hostile!
The Xianxia Sect's description of Li Yu and his men described them as a group of murderous demons, a group of ruthless invaders! Furthermore, they had witnessed Li Yu's brutality in the previous battle! They had already determined that Li Yu and his men were indeed as vicious as the Xianxia Sect described them to be!
The vast majority of people don't want to live, but they know they will die, and they just want to die quickly! The reason they say that is nothing more than to amuse themselves!
Yin Zijuan couldn't help but frown. She thought: These people are already prejudiced against her. It would be difficult to convince them immediately. She felt reluctant to let them go.
The vulture couldn't help but glare at Yin Zijuan and shouted:
"Fairy! Why waste time talking to these idiots? Just kill them!"
"Right, right, right! Since they want to die, just grant their wish!"
The big white rabbit is also a fox taking advantage of the tiger's power. The little green dragon's eyes are even more furious! Yin Zijuan quickly reached out to stop him and whispered:
"Don't ruin my junior brother's plan!"
Then he said loudly to the group of prisoners:
"I know you all have prejudices against us! But that's just the one-sided story of the Xianxia Sect! What I want to tell you is that Hu Mei is not a disciple of the Xianxia Sect at all, so how can there be any accusation of kidnapping Xianxia Sect disciples? It seems I need to explain the whole process to everyone to set the record straight! I think you can judge the right and wrong for yourselves!"
He then briefly recounted how Li Yu met Hu Mei, how he clashed with Gu Feng, how he killed the Xianxia Sect disciples and elders, and how he retreated into the Yunfu Mountains. Finally, he said:
"Everyone should understand that Junior Brother Li had no choice but to kill the elder disciple of the Immortal Hero! It was because Gu Feng first tried to get his hands on Hu Mei, and then used his power to bully others!
Therefore, the so-called kidnapping of Xianxia disciples is pure nonsense! The killing of Xianxia sect disciples and elders also had reasons!"
After hearing Yin Zijuan's words, everyone kept silent. After all, they didn't know whether what Yin Zijuan said was true or not. After a long while, Wu Changlin was the first to speak:
"Hmph! You said the Xianxia Sect's statement was one-sided, but isn't your statement also one-sided? However, who is true and who is false is now meaningless to me, Wu Changlin! If you still have some humanity left in you, then give me, Old Wu, a quick death!"
Yin Zijuan knew that Wu Changlin's words probably represented the thoughts of most of the prisoners. Seeing that they were all eager to express their opinions, Wu Changlin interrupted as soon as he finished speaking:
"Huh? Why would I kill you? If I wanted you dead, why would I go through so much trouble to capture you?"
"Hahaha! I knew you had bad intentions! But, I'm telling you, there's a lifeline! You want me to betray Xuanyuan Xing and beg for mercy on my knees? No way!"
Wu Changlin laughed in anger!
"I think you, Saint Wu, have misunderstood! We will not stay here, and we do not want to conquer anyone. Therefore, there is no need for you to kneel down and beg for mercy! We are not bloodthirsty people, so we will not take your lives!
We know that the reason you came to besiege us is mostly because you were deceived by the Xianxia Sect! Therefore, not only will we not kill you, we will also let you go!
However, before you leave, I advise you all not to get involved in this mess again! Otherwise, if you encounter it again, don't blame me and my men for being ruthless! Okay! Now you can go!"
After Yin Zijuan finished speaking, she waved her hand towards the people and monsters surrounding the captives and said:
"Clear the passage and let them go!"
Seeing the humans and demons surrounding them finally lift the circle, the captives were all confused! They stood there in a daze, not daring to move a step! What were they trying to do? A game of cat and mouse?
However, what confused them was that it was as if they didn't exist. Aside from Yin Zijuan and some low-level monsters that seemed to be monitoring them, Li Yu and the others all dispersed, with no intention of driving them away and then killing them!
They had originally thought that since Li Yu and the others wanted to play a cat-and-mouse game, they would resolutely refuse to cooperate. They would just stay where they were and let them kill them if they wanted! As for resistance, it was just a thought! Thinking of their previous capture, they eventually became a little discouraged.
However, they waited for half a day! No one came to chase them away, and no one came to kill them, which made them even more irritated! Wu Changlin finally couldn't help but shouted:
"Hey, little girl, what do you mean by this? Do you really want to let us go?"
"Of course! You can come or stay as you please!"
Yin Zijuan answered casually.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, their hearts aching with confusion. "Leave or stay as you please?" Were they truly planning to let them go?
"You...you don't have any conditions?"
Jiang Liming asked suspiciously.
"Conditions? Hmm... I'd rather not tell you! Even if I told you, you wouldn't believe me. Instead, you'd misunderstand us as having ulterior motives! Don't worry, everyone. We're good by our words. Just go! But... Sigh! Forget it! If you want to leave, go ahead!"
Not only did they hesitate to state the conditions, but they also made the captives afraid to act rashly! Since they had determined that Li Yu and his gang were not good people, their conditions were naturally quite harsh! They must not betray Xuanyuan Star!
If they really did something like this, they might not die, but their entire sect and family would cease to exist! After all, the five major sects would never let their sect and family go!
However, the wait was too painful! Wu Changlin could not help but yelled:
"Fuck it! I really can't stand it anymore! Little girl! Please, can't you just give us a quick death?"
"Huh? Didn't I make it very clear? You can stay or go as you please!"
Yin Zijuan said in surprise.
