Chapter 388 - The Genuine Soldier! (1/2)
Xiao Bing was not too surprised that Bai Jun had come to the cabin. But Xiao Bing thought that Han Long was merely one of the supplements here. In any case, Bai Jun would not embarrass Red Rose, who was one of the five Great Patriarchs. However, Xiao Bing really did not expect Bai Jun to be so arrogant, so callous and ruthless that he even hurt Red Rose so readily. His strength had reached the realm of Breaking The Void, so Red Rose would be no match for him.
Red Rose fell to the ground, wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth and looked up at Bai Jun with an incredulous expression. Red Rose was not the only one who felt stunned, the people who followed Bai Jun did not think that Bai Jun would actually hurt her. They came to catch people, but they did not think that they would be battling with Red Rose. The five Great Patriarchs were in the supreme position in the homeland. Of course, they should obey Bai Jun’s orders, but they dared not offend Red Rose too much. After all, Bai Jun was indeed the First Patriarch, more powerful than Red Rose, but it would be a bad thing if Red Rose wanted to create trouble for them in the future.
However, Bai Jun actually battled with her.
He did it without any hesitation.
Bai Jun looked at Red Rose and said seriously, “Second Patriarch, sorry to offend you, but I must take this person away today. I would not stop you usually. However, this ceremony is different. I cannot tolerate any mistakes, because it is related to the future of the Orochi family.”
“The future, the future…” Red rose rose from the ground, looked at Bai Jun with resentment, and shouted. “Only the resurrection of the Great God is our future? He’s dead. He’s dead! He has been dead for so many years, even if he really comes back, can he really bring us to the future? Can he revive? Even if he is resurrected, what can he really bring us? In fact, we don’t need to stay here at all. We don’t need to guard a graveyard for the dead. Our family has stayed here for generations. Do you know how many people yearn to go outside? Don’t make fun of me here!”
“You!” Bai Jun’s eyes flashed with anger. He raised his hand and wanted to hit her again. At last, he held back, lowered his voice and said coldly, “Don’t say that again, or I will kill you definitely.”
Red Rose looked at Bai Jun without backing down, and said, “I am one of the five Great Patriarchs. If you want to strike my name off, you need a majority of votes, let alone kill me. Bai Jun, even if you are strong enough, you can’t bypass the whole elder group.”
In fact, Bai Jun felt a little surprised and was not used to it. Red Rose had always been his firm supporter. Bai Jun was powerful enough, and with the support of Red Rose, his position in the homeland was even more unshakable. Now, Red Rose had hostility in her eyes. It was the first time that Red Rose had opposed him in public.
But Bai Jun did not regret what he did. Red Rose was right. He really did not have the right to hurt Red Rose. So he was ready to ignore Red Rose and go ahead to catch the people directly.
Xiao Bing was mulling over what to do with this matter now. It seemed that Red Rose could not stop Bai Jun, but Xiao Bing did not want to give Han Long away. Since Xiao Bing had used a great deal of effort to save Han Long, Xiao Bing would not give him up so readily.
If Xiao Bing exposed his strength and identity at this time, it was possible to protect Han Long, but accomplishing this task would be difficult. There were many wily persons here. Though Xiao Bing’s strength was strong, killing more would be followed by self-defeat. What’s more, Xiao Bing was not completely clear about all the details here. If there were any problems,, it was okay to expose his identity, but he was afraid that he could not stop this ceremony.
After knowing the purpose of these people, Xiao Bing decided that his goal this time should be temporarily changed to stop the ceremony, and then to take away the man who had God’s blood. It would be fantastic if both goals could be achieved, otherwise, he had to stop them first. Even if it was unknown whether Orochi could be resurrected, which sounded too surreal, Xiao Bing could not bet on it. Even if there was only a little possibility, Xiao Bing could not gamble on the lives of thousands of ordinary people outside!
Xiao Bing desperately grasped the window frame with his hand, and the calm in his eyes disappeared.
For so many years, Xiao Bing had never lost his calmness. Even when he was facing death, he did not panic. But this time, it was not the same. This time, Xiao Bing made a choice not for himself, but for Han Long and his mission. The soldiers were always clear that the real sacrifice was not the country, but only the individual at this time.
Xiao Bing sighed secretly. When he was about to turn around, he suddenly heard the door opening. Xiao Bing turned around and found that Han Long had rushed out of the room.
Xiao Bing thought, “What does Han Long want to do? Is he trying to escape?”
It was absolutely impossible. Han Long could not leave this place. These people would not let him go.
Xiao Bing held back from following him, but looked at the scene from the window. Han Long walked towards Bai Jun. He looked at Bai Jun and said, “Let’s go. I’m willing to follow you back.”
Bai Jun glanced at Xiao Bing. The people he brought hurriedly caught hold of Han Long and gripped his shoulders. Bai Jun then looked at Red Rose and said, “I’ll take this man away. I won’t take that man. Don’t say I did not give you face. Go and deal with your injuries.”
After that, Bai Jun and Han Long left. Before Han Long left, he looked back at Xiao Bing. Xiao Bing’s cheek was twitching. He could see what Han long was thinking. At that time, Han Long had other options, although each option was unlikely to succeed. He could try to escape, resist and finally attempt suicide. It was better to try suicide than being taken as a supplement for this ceremony.
But Han Long did not do any of these things, not that he did not have the courage, but because he knew that if he died, it would be difficult to deal with the affairs today, so he had be taken back by these people. Only in this way could Xiao Bing continue to carry out his task.
