Chapter 1243: Battle of the Heavenly Will (IV)
Lin Hongyu looked over those who’d stepped forward. There was a good collection of almost one hundred students. Evenround Martial University had quite a few students—almost four hundred. Many wanted to stay and wait for Zhang An.
Lin Hongyu didn’t mind. This was enough! Almost one hundred students who were nearly all Sun and Moon was quite enough. If all of the divine spirits had departed from Divine Nation, then there was nothing to be concerned about for this expedition.
If they’d left one Saint behind, then with all these puppets present and herself at seventh level Sun and Moon, they may not come off worse for the wear even if they couldn’t kill the Saint.
“I’ll have to ask everyone to put themselves through some discomfort. We are too conspicuous in these numbers. Please compress yourselves to enter the earth driller. We can depart together.”
The students didn’t say anything; their leader was another robot cat. It was someone Lin Hongyu was familiar with.
“Senor Li!” she called out.
The robot cat turned to look at her.
“Is the senior... coming with us?” Lin Hongyu asked politely. She’d met this one a long time ago; she’d first come out into the world with Jiang Yingli. Jiang Yingli later chose to join Li Hao’s side, whereas this one was yet to make a decision. What had prompted her to do so today?
“I wish to clean out the remnants of evil!” Li Shengzhang responded after a while. “The Zhengs, Zhous, and Lius are all from Tranquil Star. I didn’t know that they were the traitors before. Now that we do, teacher has not taken any action as of yet. I don’t know what he’s thinking, but to me, these people have tarnished the name of Tranquil Star!
“Tranquil Star is not a place of traitors. It is a sacred land of New Martial and a strong pillar of the civilization! Many powerhouses have come from it, including the Shen and Chen exalted emperors who established New Martial!
“There are also families that safeguarded the human race for countless eons, as well as the forefather of the Lis that founded the world—my ancestor! Tranquil Star is a sacred land, a place of honor. It is not the home of traitors in the eyes of Silver Moon denizens!”
She hadn’t considered joining Li Hao’s side before, but three Tranquil Star families had turned traitor! This was a torment and humiliation for someone from Tranquil Star. Thus, she decided not to wait for her teacher anymore.
