Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Lin Xiuyuan walking over.
His face was calm, but his eyes held an indescribable meaning.
His gaze swept over the group, inexplicably causing them to feel a slight embarrassment and shame...
It is often said that ambitious people have sharp eyes; when they focus their gaze, they exude an invisible pressure.
It perfectly interprets this in the present moment.
The expressions on their faces changed slightly.
Liu Yuan and a few others, including Wang Xiangyang, had slight changes in their expressions, and a strange look appeared in their eyes as they focused their gaze on Lin Xiuyuan.
As for Fang Lian and the other two disciples of the Cloud Clan, their expressions naturally darkened.
Fang Lian looked at Lin Xiuyuan with a gloomy expression and surging anger in his eyes, and said without any politeness.
"Ha, what do you know? We're discussing important matters; it's not your place to spout nonsense!"
Fang Lian snorted coldly and continued, "This concerns the overall situation; how could you possibly understand it? Since you've been pretending to be dead, then keep pretending. Or are you scared, feeling like you're about to die, and running out to find a chance to survive?"
This was a last resort!
Although it is the last resort in the current situation, it is naturally difficult to say it to one's face and to back down.
At this moment, Fang Lian was burning with rage, wishing he could kill Lin Xiuyuan...
His eyes were extremely gloomy as he stared intently at Lin Xiuyuan, thinking to himself, "Once Senior Brother Han returns, let's see how many more days you can keep jumping around... No, you won't get past this hurdle! You'll die here!"
Lin Xiuyuan's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes deepened. He glanced at Fang Lian and then swept his gaze over Liu Yuan and the others.
"Since I've come here and said these words, I must have a solution with me!"
"Or is it that, under such circumstances, you have lost the will to resist and believe that you are powerless to resist the Ghost Spirit Sect?"
"If you believe that sacrificing most of your disciples to gain a sliver of hope will ultimately lead to total annihilation, do you think it's worth it...?"
"In that case, let's pretend I was never here..."
Lin Xiuyuan stopped abruptly, stood with his hands behind his back, and said in a calm tone.
Given the current situation, he could no longer remain uninvolved.
But the situation has ultimately deteriorated to this point, becoming extremely dire!
Reversing this situation would be an incredibly difficult task.
Initially, seeing the situation deteriorate so badly, Lin Xiuyuan also intended to stay out of trouble.
With his current abilities, if he wanted to leave, the Ghost Spirit Sect might not be able to stop him.
Unless the entire group of dozens or even hundreds of Ghost Spirit Sect disciples set up a large formation specifically targeting him to surround him.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible to do anything to Lin Xiuyuan, who has now reached the peak of Foundation Establishment.
However, while it's possible to remain unaffected, the losses would be far greater...
The details Lin Xiuyuan learned from Zhong Jiajia, though tinged with reluctance, still gave him a glimmer of hope.
Naturally, this involves enormous risks...
After much deliberation, Lin Xiuyuan finally decided to take the plunge and came here.
Otherwise, this trip to the secret realm would have been in vain.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be here.
Lin Xiuyuan observed the changes in their expressions, as if they were completely rejecting his intervention.
Lin Xiuyuan then gave up and stopped paying attention to the matter, waiting for the formation to break so he could escape!
"Heh, do you think you're Senior Brother Han? Even if Senior Brother Han were here, he might not be able to do anything, let alone you?"
Fang Lian glanced around and noticed that Liu Yuan and Wang Xiangyang's expressions had changed, as if they were deep in thought. He couldn't help but speak up.
Lin Xiuyuan ignored him and focused his attention on Liu Yuan and Wang Xiangyang.
Although Fang Lian is now in charge of the garrison, his role is more of an overall coordination.
Currently, the Xuanmai disciples who maintain the formation are the most numerous in the camp, led by an 'old man' like Liu Yuan. He is one of the strong contenders for the Xuanmai chief and has a high reputation.
Meanwhile, the Xuanfeng Sect was naturally led by Wang Xiangyang.
It can be said that this decision rests between the two of them. If they both agree, then Lin Xiuyuan would not mind getting involved in this matter and trying to see if he could turn the tide and protect his own interests. Perhaps he could also gain more merits and increase his chances of breaking through to the Purple Mansion stage to the greatest extent possible!
However, if they side with Fang Lian and prevent Lin Xiuyuan from interfering, then he won't say much, will turn around and leave, and will simply mind his own business. With the main forces of both groups still present, they might be able to secure enough contributions!
