Chapter 877 “The Mainland’s Change (6)”
There’s only a handful of people within the Medicine Sect that could match up to Elder Tian Lei’s strength, therefore it’s not surprising some would begin to fear after seeing this senior be seriously injured with one blow.
A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him, that’s the sort of belief running through some of these disciples head.
“I will not stop those who want to leave!” Bai Chang Feng states this with grim determination, “And, the ancestors have left word that we cannot abandon this place no matter the reasoning.”
After hearing the stubbornness of this old grandfather, some of the more cowardly individuals who feared death immediately began to show themselves. Standing up, they started to run off towards the base of the mountain with much regard for their peers.If Bai Chang Feng said he’s not disappointed by the betrayal then he be lying. However, he didn’t stop them because useless deaths today won’t have any impact on the final fight. Of course, those who fled remains on the smaller side while more decided held the courage to stay till the end.
“What are you all doing?” it was Elder Qi who stepped forward to yell at the traitors. His old face was livid as he points at the small group of fleeing youngsters.
One of them turns after hearing the outcry: “Elder Qi, I suggest you come with us as well. Do you see Elder Tian Lei to the side over there? That is what’s going to happen to you if you stay. You didn’t see it because you weren’t here earlier, but the one who did that is nothing more than a subordinate of that man!”
Elder Qi’s face went slightly green: “To think our Medicine Sect would have such cowardly bastards like you all! If you leave now then you are to never return!”
“You must be kidding right? Why would we come back when the Medicine Sect’s about to become non-existent? Keeping our lives is more important.” That said, the younger didn’t waste any more time rushed away for the outside.
Although this one paid a huge price in order to enter the Medicine Sect back then, but today’s choice won’t be something he regrets.
Why stay when its certain death?“Hoho, some people here at least knows better,” the middle-aged man makes a sarcastic sneer in that comment. “I don’t want to indiscriminately kill those who are innocent. Anyone who doesn’t wish to stay is free to leave, I won’t stop them. However, once the battle starts then none is leaving here alive!”
Boom!
After those words, the aura around this person immediately began to surge outward, shrouding the entire mountain in a thick coat of pressure.
For some of the disciples who decided to stay till the end, they stayed because of Bai Chang Feng’s existence. The old grandpa’s one of the strongest individuals out there in this world. So what if Elder Tian Lei was defeated in a single blow? Maybe their chief could turn the tide around?
But now to experience the foe’s aura firsthand and in person, many who are fully resolved to fight till the end was also starting to waiver. It couldn’t be helped, the pale looking complexion on their chief told them things are looking bad.
“Chief, Elder Qi, I think those disciples are not exactly wrong…” One of the meeker sounding elders speaks up: “Let’s not die here for something as simple as a mountain. A sect can be rebuilt anywhere as long as we have our people.”
“What do you mean by that Elder Lin?” Elder Qi became enraged by his peers lack of a backbone: “Chief has his reasons for staying. If you are afraid of death then you can leave with the rest of them!”
