Chapter 1130 You Have to Save Yourself

The elder brother's words sounded outrageous to everyone, but people are naturally curious. Seeing that he had taken out his phone, everyone present, whether they believed it or not, gathered around.

The result was quite surprising and left many people bewildered.

Especially the middle-aged woman who had complained about Ye Wanxi not long ago: "This...this is all true, you're not lying to us?"

Qi Yingxuan rolled his eyes helplessly: "Don't you have any idea whether we're lying to you or not? We've already laid out the evidence in your faces, and you're still asking us if we're lying to you? You can't wake someone who's pretending to be asleep."

The woman was immediately embarrassed by his retort and muttered under her breath, "I didn't say I didn't believe you."

Not to mention that these messages were posted by authoritative official accounts, the video evidence that was dug up made it impossible for her not to believe them.

She was just embarrassed that the person she had been resenting and cursing just minutes before had suddenly become her indirect savior.

No wonder Qi Yingxuan called her an ingrate earlier. The old lady was truly ashamed and aggrieved. After holding it in for a long time, she couldn't help but mutter softly, "I didn't know! If I had known she was such a good person, I definitely wouldn't have said that."

Several people who had just complained about Ye Wanxi dragging them down, just like the older woman, secretly echoed her sentiments in their hearts.

That's right. These people are trapped in this place, cut off from all communication with the outside world. How could they possibly know what major events are happening outside?

Well... ignorance is no excuse, and they didn't do it on purpose, did they?

Seemingly sensing their thoughts, Jun Wuduan narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "This should also be one of the purposes of the instigator above. First, release a video to guide you to resent the people who came to save you, then cut off the signal, making it impossible for you to contact the outside world, and to distinguish who is good and who is evil, who is right and who is wrong."

"The inability to contact the outside world, coupled with the successive misfortunes in the city, has increased the psychological pressure on everyone, naturally leading to a surge of negative emotions. You've been trapped here for so long, haven't you noticed any changes in the barrier protecting you?"

Jun Wuduan's reminder immediately caused the crowd, who had quieted down due to their guilty conscience, to start chattering again.

"It did change. I remember it was transparent at first, then it became a bit pink, and then it became... increasingly red."

"That's right. At first, I thought it was because of the sunlight refraction. It gets redder as evening approaches, but if that's the logic, shouldn't it turn black at night? Why is it still..." so red?

It was so bright red, so dangerous, that just one glance was enough to send shivers down one's spine.

"This formation is somewhat similar to the one in Linjia Village. It subtly induces and amplifies the negative emotions in everyone's hearts within the formation, then absorbs these emotions for its own use, thus forming a supply cycle. And you are the starting point of this cycle, the culture medium used to cultivate negative emotions."

Upon hearing this description, everyone present shuddered involuntarily.

"The heavier your negative emotions, the stronger this formation becomes. In addition, it has set up two targets for you to vent your frustrations. When you find that you can't do anything and can only be trapped here waiting to die, you will feel resentful and blame everyone you can blame. The two people who have been named are undoubtedly a good choice."

"But have you ever considered that your blame, your resentment and bitterness will not only fail to save yourselves, but may also harm those who come to help you? If it really comes to that, everyone will become a pawn in this game, losing their own judgment and thoughts, making a fool of themselves, and finally dying unjustly and resentfully."

Jun Wuduan's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over everyone's heads, making them shiver, but their minds were clearer than ever before.

"Well, when I watched that video before, something just didn't feel right. What kind of person would go so far as to hold an entire city hostage just for personal grudges? Just like those foreigners before, they don't care about our lives at all. How can you believe anything someone like that says?"

“That’s right. These dangerous individuals are no different from kidnappers. At least kidnappers are after money, but he’s after lives. With things getting this big, is it really possible that sacrificing two people will quell the situation? It’s obviously impossible. I didn’t think so before, but now that I think about it, his demands might just be an excuse. He never intended for us to live from the beginning.”

Such a simple truth was not difficult for everyone to understand before, but they still harbored a sliver of hope for the future.

But now that someone has already exposed the truth, and some of them were almost burned to ashes, they can't keep deceiving themselves any longer.

"Then...what should we do?" Realizing the seriousness of the situation once again, the woman hugged her terrified grandson and granddaughter, crying uncontrollably with tears streaming down her face, her expression filled with despair.

"I don't want to die. I'm only twenty years old, my life has just begun, and there are so many things I want to do. I don't want to die so soon. Someone will come to save us, right? Someone will definitely come to save us, right?"

"Yes, someone will definitely come to save us! I don't believe that none of our hundreds of millions of people can beat this old guy. Didn't you see how powerful those two up there are? They've been fighting him for so long and haven't lost a beat. There must be a way, there must be a way."

Their words once again drew everyone's attention to Ye Wanxi and her companions. In just a few breaths, the two of them had already exchanged over a hundred blows with Wu Yequan.

Feng Tianyu chose to succumb to demonic possession again in order to quickly increase his strength and contend with Wu Yequan, and that was indeed the case.

Although Feng Tianyu at that time could not compare with him in his prime in his previous life, he was still able to hold his own against Wu Yequan in a head-on confrontation.

Unfortunately, they were all currently within Wu Yequan's magic array, which slightly reduced their strength.

With Ye Wanxi's help, they were only able to barely suppress Wu Yequan.

But this is not a solution either. The shape outside the magic circle has changed, which means that there is not much time left before the magic circle is fully activated.

The longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes for those trapped inside.

Jun Wuduan and the others clearly understood this as well. Looking at Ye Wanxi and the other woman locked in combat with Wu Yequan not far away, their eyes flashed slightly, and they said firmly, "They are indeed powerful and are trying very hard to save you. But relying on just the two of them is far from enough. In this situation, we not only have to hope for help from outside, but we also have to save ourselves!"
