Chapter 624: Chapter 624: Want to Use the Sect to Hold Me Hostage?

"What? We’re leaving already? Why? I just saw so many treasures, I need to hurry back and snatch them."

"Yes, there are still so many treasures waiting for us to discover in this relic. Why do we have to leave?"

"Let him leave if he wants to, I’m not going anywhere."

"Who does he think he is, ordering us around?"

Upon hearing Lin Chen’s proposal to leave the relic, everyone immediately started to complain, expressing their unwillingness to leave.

After all, there were still many opportunities in this relic, and they had only just managed to enter this place. To ask them to leave now was something the crowd was extremely reluctant to do.

After all, any treasure or Heavenly and Earthly Treasures obtained casually in this relic would require a significant amount of sect contribution points to exchange for outside in their sect.

Such firm opposition from the crowd, who refused to leave no matter what, caused Lin Chen to frown slightly.

The majority of those who opposed him were from the Formation Sect, while the disciples of the Divine Flame Sect chose to trust Lin Chen unconditionally.

"Fellow seniors, brothers, and sisters, I know you’re reluctant to give up the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures in this relic, but do you still remember how many brothers and sisters were with us when we entered this relic? How many are left now?"

"There’s something you may not be aware of, which is that there are powerful beings from the Alien Race within this relic. I don’t know if everyone has witnessed their methods, but they can release a kind of death qi that erodes our Spiritual Power. I have fought against them; they are very difficult to deal with, and many strong individuals have died at their hands. I know it’s hard to give up the treasures in the relic, but facing those Alien beings, are you confident you can survive their hands?"

Lin Chen spoke to the crowd with a calm tone, merely wanting to instill fear in them so they would quickly leave the place.

Of course, if the crowd still refused to leave, there was nothing Lin Chen could do but to abandon them and depart with Yu Weilian, Xia Wanxin, and others.

Lin Chen certainly wouldn’t stay behind and accompany them to their deaths because they wouldn’t heed his advice.

"Alien Race? Weren’t those guys already dealt with by Brother Wu Chao? What Alien Race is there still to worry about?"

Within the Formation Sect group, a man with long yellow hair stood out and spoke.

This man was named Zhao Hu, and he was ranked among the top twenty disciples of the Inner Sect of the Formation Sect. He had always harbored dissatisfaction towards Lin Chen and Chang Bai, these two newcomers.

After all, Lin Chen and Chang Bai had received too much attention in the Formation Sect over the past few months, causing these older disciples to seem less significant in comparison.

"The ones Brother Wu Chao destroyed before were just part of the Alien Race. I have a premonition that there’s a large group of them on their way here right now. Even Brother Wu Chao would not be a match for them by then, and we wouldn’t even have the power to protect ourselves. So, it’s better for us to leave together."

Lin Chen looked at Zhao Hu and tried to persuade him once more.

"Hmph, you’re just scared of death and want us to escape with you. I think you’re just a coward scared of trouble when we leave and want us to help you deal with it."

"Yeah, you say you can sense a large group of Alien Race approaching. What’s your Cultivation level? You’re only at the seventh level of the Reverting Void Realm. Even Brother Wu Chao hasn’t sensed anything, yet you claim you can sense it? Ridiculous!"

"If you want to leave, then leave by yourself. We’re not going to be your bodyguards."

Under Zhao Hu’s leadership, many disciples of the Formation Sect started to loudly protest, adamantly not willing to leave.

Hearing what Zhao Hu and others said, Lin Chen shook his head and sighed. Since these people insisted on staying and seeking death, he naturally wouldn’t force them.

"I’ve said all that needs to be said. Since you refuse to leave, don’t blame me for not warning you when the Alien Race arrives."

"Since you won’t go, then I wish you all the luck."

Lin Chen looked at everyone and was about to lead Yu Weilian and others to leave.

"Hold on!"

However, just as Lin Chen was preparing to leave, Zhao Hu shouted out.

Zhao Hu was once considered one of the Heavenly Pride disciples of the Formation Sect, but since Lin Chen arrived, not only did he lose his limelight, but the topic of many conversations among female disciples in the sect also shifted from him to Lin Chen. Many female disciples even developed feelings of admiration for Lin Chen, which Zhao Hu found intolerable.

Now that he had the opportunity to embarrass Lin Chen, Zhao Hu naturally wouldn’t let it pass.

"What is it?"

Lin Chen’s gaze fell coldly on Zhao Hu. If it hadn’t been for Zhao Hu’s instigation, many disciples would probably have chosen to follow him and leave.

But now, because of Zhao Hu, they had also chosen to stay. Lin Chen did not want to spend more effort trying to persuade these people. Since they had chosen to stay, they should be ready to face the horror of the Dark Demon Race.

"As a Heavenly Pride of our sect, the sect has invested a significant amount of resources in cultivating you. Now that you are aware of the imminent danger, shouldn’t you stay and fight those monsters with us?"

"It’s bad enough that you’re leaving, but you even encourage others to flee with you. What are your true intentions? Are you trying to break our unity so that the enemy can defeat us one by one?"

Zhao Hu questioned out loud.

"Right, anyone who runs away at the first sign of danger is just too cowardly, too shameful. As his fellows, we feel ashamed."

Under Zhao Hu’s instigation, the people around began to express their scorn for Lin Chen, especially since the beauties from the Divine Flame Sect, such as Yu Weilian, also chose to follow Lin Chen and leave, which made many male disciples envious of Lin Chen.

"Haha, is this what you call moral kidnapping? The sect cultivates me, and I have served the sect."

"What are you to demand that I stay and protect you, to help you face those monsters?"

"Calling me cowardly? Haha, then you all stay here. I’m actually quite looking forward to seeing how you face the Evil Demons of the Alien Race with fear. Just make sure not to only think about running for your lives."

"Oh, and by the way, I forgot to tell you, you all know about the yellow skins of the Demon Race, right? They couldn’t even withstand ten moves against those Evil Demons of the Alien Race."

Lin Chen retorted.
