Chapter 1783 - The mighty first elder (1)
Although the people present were hesitant, the monsters in the secret realm would not give them too much time to think. As the footsteps got closer and closer, they had to make an immediate decision.
At this moment, an elder of the ning family, who had always been silent, spoke.
“Everyone! Everyone here is basically an elder of their own clan. In the immortal realm, they can be considered to be people with a reputation and status. However, we are now scared out of our wits by these monsters. If this news were to spread, have you ever thought about how disappointed our clan members will be with us? The monster is indeed terrifying, but we should believe in miss Leng’s means. Since she said that she would guarantee our safety, she would not go back on her word. What she is asking now is only our cooperation. Then what kind of men are we? Where is our courage? Where’s our fighting spirit? Where is our intelligence? Don’t let these monsters become a nightmare for the rest of our lives, or they’ll become the demons in our hearts. Even if we’re still alive, we’d rather die. Is this what you want?” This elder of the ning family had never liked to speak much, but every time he said something, it was quite shocking. This time was no exception.
Hearing his words, everyone’s mood turned from hesitation to shame. Soon, some people echoed the ning family elder’s words, and as the thunderous footsteps got closer and closer, everyone’s fighting spirit was instantly ignited ...
“The ning family’s elder is right! How can we face our clansmen if we’re so timid? If they know that we’re so scared of these monsters that we can only hide everywhere, they’ll definitely be disappointed in us. So, we should fight these monsters to the death!” Someone roared in excitement.
“Let’s fight them! Kill them all!” Someone in the crowd took the lead and shouted.
“Right! Let’s fight them to the death!” A deafening sound suddenly rang out, and the Wen family elder’s expression became more and more unsightly.
“Don’t be so impulsive, this is not a joke. ” The elder of the Wen family said earnestly.
“Master Wen, if you’re afraid, you can go back to your house and hide. We’ll stay outside to help miss Leng.” The elder of the ning family said. After he finished speaking, he glanced at the head of the Wen family with disdain. His words immediately resonated with the crowd.
“Wen family head, even if you’re afraid, don’t drag us down! You’ll lower our fighting spirit by saying that. ”
“It is! We’re at the height of our battle intent, so don’t you douse our enthusiasm. If you don’t want to fight, then quickly hide and stop making such sarcastic remarks!”
The crowd began to criticize in dissatisfaction, and their words quickly made the Wen family head’s face flush red with shame and anger.
“A bunch of ungrateful things, you’re clearly looking to die.” The head of the Wen family gritted his teeth and said with a face full of disappointment. However, he could not help but sigh in his heart. Let these monsters teach them a painful lesson. When the time comes, they will know how correct his words are.
“Wen family head, they’re fighting for their own reputation, but you keep saying that they’re courting death. Could it be that you really wish for something to happen to them?” At this moment, Leng ruoxue spoke with a smile on her face. Her timely words made the Wen family head even more embarrassed and angry.
“That’s right. Wen family head, are you afraid that something will happen to us?” The elder of the ning family asked.
“I’m doing this for your own good. You ... You won’t listen to me. You’ll regret it.” The Wen family head was so angered by Leng ruoxue that he stuttered. He glared at Leng ruoxue and spoke fiercely.
“Yao family head, Yin family head, are you planning to play along with them?” The Wen family head turned around and said to the Yao and Yin family heads who were standing at the side. He needed to form an alliance to avoid being too conspicuous.
“Wen family head, how can this be considered nonsense? They’re not three-year-old children, they know what they’re doing. ” Master Yin said with a smile.
“Yup! You’ve been famous for many years, so you still have the ability to make such a choice. ” The Yao family’s master said with mixed emotions.
“Your Yao clan is also going to fight with them?” The head of the Wen family asked in disbelief. Many of the Yao family members were injured by uncle long just now, could they still fight the monster? Although he thought so in his heart, the words that came out of his mouth were not so pleasant.
Furthermore, the patriarch’s face darkened at his words. He immediately retorted in displeasure,””Wen family head, what are you saying? Could it be that the members of my Yao family are so afraid of death?”
“Uh! I didn’t mean it that way. ” Seeing that he had angered the Yao family’s head, master Wen hurriedly tried to explain.
However, Leng ruoxue would not give him a chance to explain. She smiled indifferently and said,””I’m sure master Wen’s meaning is that there’s a conflict between us, so you’re not optimistic about our cooperation. Master Yao, I’m actually quite afraid that you’ll drag me down. Why don’t you take your family and hide?”
Leng ruoxue’s tone was full of negotiation, but it made master Yao feel bad. Their Yao family was ranked second in the eight great divine domains, but now, in this wretched girl’s eyes, they had actually become a burden. How could he swallow this?
At the thought of this, the head of the Yao family suppressed his anger and shouted,””Don’t worry, miss Leng, our Yao family members are all battle-hardened and will definitely not drag you down!”
“Then I’m relieved! Wen family head, since you’re afraid of death, then take these three elders and hide! Don’t let the innocent get involved. You have to know that I won’t feel guilty!” Leng ruoxue looked at the Wen family head’s darkened expression and reminded him with a faint smile. However, looking at the Wen family head who looked like a commander with nothing to his name, she could not help but laugh in her heart. According to what she knew, the Wen family had brought quite a number of people into the mystic realm this time, and more than half of them were elders. However, in just a few months, other than the Wen family head, there were only three elders left in the Wen family. These three elders were extremely timid and had been taught a lesson by uncle long quite a few times. Thinking about their experiences, Leng ruoxue felt sorry for them.
“You ...” The Wen family head was so angry that he was speechless. Furthermore, in order to teach Leng ruoxue a lesson, he decided that he would stand by and do nothing about this matter. Hmph! He wanted to see how this woman was going to deal with these monsters.
At present, not many people knew that Leng ruoxue’s flames could kill monsters. Although she had promised to protect the safety of the people paying, other than a few families that were on good terms with her, many people were skeptical of her words. However, it was better to have hope than nothing. Furthermore, when they received the money, they had agreed that if they could not guarantee their safety and brought them out of the mystic realm, Leng ruoxue would have to pay double the compensation. Hence, from their point of view, this was not a loss to them. On the contrary, it gave them a glimmer of hope. Therefore, other than some people who were dissatisfied with the fees, most people were satisfied.
Leng ruoxue’s main request to them was to listen to her arrangements. The vast majority of people had no doubts about this.
