Chapter 324 - 286: Going Home (2nd Update)
Inside the Divine Ancient Hall, silence reigned, void of any speech.
For them, the Tiandu Continent had long been like a homeland, where generations lived on this fertile land for countless years, deeply imprinting their lives onto this world.
To allow otherworldly beings to occupy the Tiandu Continent recklessly would be like allowing devastation upon their own homes—a notion unacceptable to anyone.
Yet, someone despondently said, "Great Saint, we are unwilling, but the disparity between us and the enemy is vast; they are too powerful, far surpassing those of us on the Tiandu Continent, how can we fight them? Do you really want everyone to march to their deaths?"
This was his true feeling, and it was also the sentiment of countless others. The homeland must not be destroyed, but the enemy was too powerful, so powerful that they all felt desperate; how could they fight?
The outcome of the battle was predictable—a path leading only to death. Why then weren’t they all evacuating, safe retreat from their homelands might be better, survival being the utmost importance.
This notion was deeply rooted in everyone’s mind; no one wanted their homeland destroyed, neither did anyone wish to die. The end of the King’s Ancient Road was the only way out, survival being of paramount importance.
Many agreed, but no one dared to voice this, for they feared that the Divine Ancestors might disapprove.
Ye Chen silently observed everything. He could understand these people’s thoughts; homeland was indeed important, but so was life. Some were willing to protect their homeland and die, yet others would rather abandon their homeland for a chance to live, especially since the exotic realm powerhouses were despairingly strong. Why indulge in pointless resistance, better to retreat to the real origin land of the Ancient Ancestors—Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.
