No matter how hard everyone racked their brains, they really couldn't figure out what role they could play.
That's not entirely true. No matter what they said they could do, they couldn't sway Li Xuanzu.
In other words, they themselves were of little use to Li Xuanzu, so the "value" that Li Xuanzu spoke of was external, not the value of the person themselves.
"One minute has passed. Get ready to go." Li Xuanzu's voice was devoid of any emotion.
They looked up at Li Xuanzu and met his gaze.
That look in his eyes didn't seem like he was looking at a person at all. It was like an ordinary person looking at the leftovers on the table after finishing a meal—boring, and even a little... disgusting.
"Wait, Li Xuanzu, wait! I'm still useful, I'm still..." Duan Xinrong was struck dumb, unable to speak coherently.
He couldn't even muster the will to resist; Li Xuanzu's strength was overwhelming.
Duan Xinrong's words were cut short before she could finish speaking.
The source of the sound—his head had already fallen to the ground with a thud, the broken part a bloody mess, it had been forcibly severed.
The head still retained the look of terror on its face, its eyes wide open, its mouth agape, staring at the sky as if it wanted to say something.
"Captain! Li Xuanzu, you bastard, I'll fight you to the death!" Tang Huan screamed, channeling his spiritual energy to call out to the Vermilion Bird Squad members around him, "Don't just stand there like idiots, we're all going to die anyway, might as well give it a shot!"
The remaining three also awoke from their despair.
Yes, Li Xuanzu might not necessarily be able to defeat so many people.
Therefore, they all channeled their spiritual energy, preparing to launch an attack on Li Xuanzu.
Tang Huan, who was shouting the loudest, turned and ran away when everyone attacked Li Xuanzu. He was very fast, which should be attributed to his enhanced spiritual energy.
"We were teammates before, so please die in my place, hahaha!" While the three members of the Vermilion Bird Squad were stunned, Tang Huan ran hundreds of meters away in the blink of an eye.
They truly deserve to be members of the special psychic squad.
Li Xuanzu did not stop Tang Huan from escaping, and instead looked at the three people in front of him.
"Sigh, you insisted on running away. A quick and painless death would be the best ending for you. May you be good people in your next life, or rather, I hope you can be reborn as humans again." Li Xuanzu didn't rush to make a move.
The three of them had just been drawn by Tang Huan's voice when they quickly turned to look at Li Xuanzu, fearing that he might suddenly make a move.
However, Tang Huan's subsequent screams once again drew their attention.
"Ah! No, please, just give me a quick death!" Tang Huan hadn't run far when his whole body inexplicably twisted and spun around several times.
Blood kept seeping from his body, like a wrung-out towel, which was nauseating.
Moreover, her body continued to twist and squeeze for more than ten seconds, a shocking scene.
After Tang Huan's body was twisted into an irregular mass of flesh and blood, everyone noticed Qian Li behind him.
The moment Tang Huan fled, Li Xuanzu signaled to Qian Li with his eyes to catch her, and the outcome satisfied Li Xuanzu greatly.
"Anyone else trying to run away?" Li Xuanzu asked with a smile as he looked at the three people in front of him.
To them, that smile was utterly terrifying.
Finally, Fu Zhengping couldn't withstand the pressure any longer, suddenly stood up, and pulled a dagger from his pocket.
This was the dagger he used to kill someone for the first time, and he has treasured it ever since, keeping it with him at all times.
He believed that the dagger would bring him good luck.
However, the dagger that had helped him overcome many dangerous situations was now completely embedded in his neck.
He committed suicide.
Li Xuanzu then looked at the remaining pair of twins.
They exchanged a glance, then channeled their spiritual energy and killed each other.
In fact, from an outsider's perspective, Li Xuanzu had no need to kill the members of the Vermilion Bird Squad, because they had already made their determination clear.
Even if I don't help Li Xuanzu, I won't be his enemy.
But there are many reasons that could lead to their deaths.
First of all, judging from the way they rose to power in the apocalypse, they are a bunch of scoundrels. Li Xuanzu couldn't guarantee that what they said was sincere, which is why Li Xuanzu told them to be good people in their next life.
Then, it's unclear what the Dragon Kingdom's intentions are, but Li Xuanzu has to do something, at least to show his attitude towards this matter, otherwise others will think he's a pushover.
As for how to let the higher-ups in China know, there's no need to worry. That kid Huang Yuanqing has been filming non-stop with his phone from the very beginning, and he's been live-streaming the whole thing.
I believe Mr. Huang will send him a message soon.
