Chapter 464: The Price For Strength (2/2)

”Everyone is responsible for their own lives,” Xue Wei said with a cold voice. ”She was aware of what the risks were, we told her the facts numerous times, but she was the one who played around with her life and ultimately lost it.”

The man was stunned when he heard Xue Wei's words, and while his rationality understood the truth, he was currently too emotional to sit down and think it through.

Just as he was about to flare up, Lin Xuan appeared behind him and knocked him out. He had seen that Xue Wei was about to lose his patience and that he was unhappy.

Xue Wei had mutated the experts for the sake of helping the army, but now he was being blamed instead; it was clear that he was unhappy with this.

The others who had been mutated were quiet. Some of them felt fearful when they saw that a person had indeed died, and they realized that they had been honest when saying that it was dangerous, but none of them regretted accepting the strength that they had been gifted.

It was as if they had been reborn. Although their talents were already considered outstanding, it was nothing compared to the potential their bodies had now. Most of them knew that their limits were the peak of the Saint realm, but now they had a feeling that anything in the world was possible for them, that they could even become Kings, and that even the Emperor Realm was also possible for them.

Although they might have died, the risk had paid off, and they had managed to get stronger and go further. This was worth risking one's life for!

But they also understood the pain of the expert who now had been knocked unconscious. This world was not a place for the weak, and everyone who was aiming for strength lost someone along the road.

So far, Xue Wei had lost Tie Haolong and his parents. Even the whereabouts of his uncle were unknown. The only ones who remained by his side were the friends he had gathered over the years.

Knowing the pain of losing someone, Xue Wei was going to do everything in his power to protect the ones he held dear. Although he had many wishes, nothing was more important than reaching them alongside his dear ones.

If he one day succeeded, but was all alone, then it would not be worth it. Standing alone on top of the world would be extremely lonesome, and he was unwilling to do so.

He only wanted to conquer the world with his friends by his side.
