Chapter 390: One Last Chance
No response from the experts. Not that they do not agree, but they are not that selfish to leave everyone, especiallying from someone they even do not know.
So instead of taking action, most decided to just observe and see what the other''s will do.
The experts on the pce are mostly Wei Jiayi''s retainers, officers from the Justice Affairs or those left by the royal family.
Those serving the royal family have their principles and leaving the citizens will never cross their mind.
"This" Lou Ren does not understand why ''Merchant Lan'' wants them to give up. Is she serious?
"Master?" Lou Ren asked Wei Jiayi who still covering the reason for the current confusion. What if the citizens did something drastic?
Wei Jiayi just nces at him before speaking, "We are giving up. So no need to help these beings." He said with indifference.
"You You Are you all serious?!"
"How despicable?! We are loyal citizens of Shizi Empire!"
"No! Please! Please! Do not leave us!"
"You all cannot do these to us!"
"Please save us!"
Themotion started, this time with the citizens begged,pletely forgetting that earlier they are the one who doubts that someone will save them.
"Silence!" Lou Chen shouted, crushing another pir to get everyone''s attention. "Our master had decided. All experts disperse!" He said with authority.
"Don''t leave! Don''t leave!" The citizens shouted in different ways of begging. There is hope as long as these experts are here!
"Wait! Wait! Please! We will do anything!"
"Yes! Yes! Anything!"
"Shut up!" Lou Chen again shouted, which everyone in front of them did.
"Heh. You all will do anything?" Gao Lan Mei asked. "What if we asked for your lives instead?"
Deafening silence. Dread. How can they respond to that? Especially those who offered to give anything.
"Well? Your money or treasures would be useless now. Spiritual energy? If you are on a higher degree, you should be helping with the barrier. Right?" Gao Lan Mei asked sarcastically.
Since no one responded, she added, "Since that is not the case, that only means you are all useless. So why should we all waste our energy to help you when we cannot even enjoy it?" she asked with indifference, as she looked down to the citizens.
These are the beings that looked down on the previous Gao Lan Mei. Those who called her a waste and useless.
The beings that mocked and refused to help her father when she was on a verge of death.
Those who denied giving her a blood replenishing pill because giving such treasure to trash is a great loss.
So why should she care? In all honesty, Gao Lan Mei only wants the benefit she can get when her defense barrier set up.
Wei Jiayi already expressed his desire to leave multiple times. Probably because he knows that these being really does not deserve her efforts or he also knows what they say regarding the Gao young miss, especially when she cannot even feel any trace of spiritual energy.
The more she looked at the citizens faces especially those from the suppose powerful families, she cannot help but sneer at them.
In fact, if she really wants to leave she can just use her own magical transportation circle. No need to travel and she can just stay there for some time, however, her conscience will not allow her to do so.
"I will give you onest chance. Offer your life and we will save you." Gao Lan Mei uttered.
The citizens do not know who ''Merchant Lan'' is. Just to survive, would they offer their life to someone they do not know?
Do they have a choice? With the rest of the experts not speaking that only means the man has the authority to decide.
Regarding Wei Jiayi, they are not familiar with him when he does not wear a mask. The Wei Prince also does not go out in public so they can only just be terrified with his strength and they will avoid offending him.
What are they going to do? Is being saved means they need to give up their life?
