Chapter 862: Clearing them out
“Capture him alive?”
Hong Xiang frowned when he heard that.
He might agree with Fla Dove’s idea if it was during other tis. Previously, when Ye Zhongming ca to the Imperial City, he firmly opposed Ye Zhongming.
But what was happening now? Their race was about to be wiped out, and the only person that could help them was him. You didn’t want to treat him nicely and wanted to capture him?
Hong Xiang looked at Fla Dove, who had a good reputation and was even one of the more famous three level-eight kings and decided to reason with him.
“King Fla Dove, let’s not talk about whether or not we could capture him. Even if we did, what is the point? Can he help us defend against the Saint Light Hall? Or can he save us from being wiped?” Hong Xiang had never felt so righteous, and his face turned red, “You might not have seen the army they are attacking with. Do you know that one small replenishnt camp has three thousand people? Each squad has around four to five hundred people!”
He looked at the kings and tribe leaders in the room, and his voice got louder, “This ans that many armies have invaded our land! They might have even gone all out!”
“Why would they go all out? They want to wipe us out!”
Hong Xiang’s words caused many people’s expressions to turn white. They knew about the Light Saint Hall’s invasion but didn’t know the scale. They felt like it was the sa as last ti, and after robbing their land of resources, they would leave.
“Hong Xiang, don’t make it sound so dangerous. They have invaded us so many tis, which can even be traced far back in our history. We were defeated every single ti, and they had a chance to occupy our territory each ti. But why didn’t they do it? Even soone like you who just reached level eight should know. Since they didn’t, the situation hasn’t changed, so why will they wipe us out? Do you think our Imperial City is so easily broken?”
Fla Dove was an old king, and his words were powerful. He opposed Hong Xiang and even mocked him for just reaching level eight. This made his face red, and he was furious.
“The person you ntioned is just a person with an unknown background. He said that he ca from another world. What a joke. When have any of us seen another world? He is just a wanderer who lies and may have bad intentions like his seniors. He is trying to lie to you because he wants to take revenge. He hates us for chasing his ancestors out of the tribe!”
Fla Dove stood up and looked coldly at Hong Xiang. “Although you got to level eight, don’t forget that you were first a king. You need to protect the interests of the Posthumous people and not help an outsider with an unknown background.”
Fla Dove then said sothing that killed all hope.
“Ye Zhongming played us the previous ti. He tainted the Saint Pool and our god. Not only didn’t you take him down, you actually want to help him.”
“Did you purposely kill half of our warriors to win his support of you?”
Hong Xiang’s face turned red and purple, and he couldn’t take it anymore, “Nonsense!”
He was shaking from anger. He was thinking for the Posthumous people and didn’t care that Ye Zhongming humiliated him. He hoped to help his people get through this.
But he was being insulted after returning. He thought he was being selfless, but now he is becoming a cunning and dishonest. He was furious.
What angered him was that the people in the room suspected him.
“I know that Ye Zhongming can craft a piece of shining equipnt. If we work with him, we are just using this ability. If we capture him, we can still make him craft; we wouldn’t need to pay any price.”
Fla Dove looked confident and continued to look coldly at Hong Xiang.
Hong Xiang really felt a chill. He understood how amazing this old king was. If his previous words were for those present to think that Hong Xiang had his own intentions, what he continued with, drew out their selfish hearts. Or rather, their greed.
Those shining pieces of equipnt were so good. If not, Hong Xiang, a level eight king, wouldn’t use them. If they captured Ye Zhongming, they could make him an equipnt-making slave, then…
The other kings were tempted, and this caused Hong Xiang’s heart to sink.
He realized that things had gone wrong. If this continued, not only would his proposal get denied, moreover Ye Zhongming would also be in danger.
He didn’t care much about Ye Zhongming’s safety, but he knew that he was the only person who could help them. If anything happened to Ye Zhongming, the Posthumous people would be finished.
Although Hong Xiang was furious, he was still a tribe leader. He cald down and understood the situation, but his expression didn’t change. He was still pumped up and pointed at Fla Dove, “You, very good. Rember what you say today. When the Light Saint Hall army attacks the Imperial City and kills us all, rember to kowtow to our ancestors and admit your mistake!”
Before the others could speak, he left the room furiously.
The mont he left, his body stopped shivering. The anger was gone, and what replaced it was a solemn expression.
“Ah Wu!”
A guy behind Hong Xiang ran to his side.
“Tell our race mbers not to go anywhere. Stay at our place just in case.”
“Okay!” Ah Wu left.
Hong Xiang didn’t stop. He headed out and found Ye Zhongming. He didn’t hide the situation and told him everything.
Ye Zhongming looked gratefully at Hong Xiang and was deep in thought.
Hong Xiang waited. He wanted to see if this guy could have any way to solve this problem.
Monts later, Ye Zhongming stretched his stiffened body because he had crafted equipnt for too long. He said, “I don’t know how you deal with people who block your path, but I only use one thod. I will clear them!”
