Chapter 286 What, You Look Down on Us?

"Do the two of you want to die with them, or kneel and surrender?"

After killing these elders of the Blazing Fire Sect, Lin Chen immediately turned to look at the Wu Long and Wu Hu brothers.

As a cultivator, and also a doctor, his grasp of vital energy was definitely far beyond that of ordinary people.

Although these two were also cultivators of the Blazing Fire Sect, and even inner sect elders, Lin Chen could tell that they did not possess any killing intent.

Clearly, they had never been responsible for any homicides.

If the other elders of the Blazing Fire Sect were doomed to die, then perhaps these two could be considered for recruitment.

And most importantly, in such a situation just now, these two brothers were still thinking of covering for Wu Zhixiong's escape, showing great loyalty and righteousness.

It was a pity that this Wu Zhixiong was worse than pigs and dogs. Not only did he escape alone, but he also blocked the escape route for others.

It could be said that if it weren't for Wu Zhixiong using his Flame Cloak to block that hole, these two brothers would have had a chance to escape.

"Hehehe, kill us then!"

Upon hearing Lin Chen's words, Wu Long stiffened his neck, showing no fear.

The two brothers were orphans, raised in the Blazing Fire Sect from a young age. They had originally intended to repay Wu Zhixiong's kindness.

But they never expected that after they were prepared to die heroically, they would be betrayed by Wu Zhixiong.

All their past kindness vanished into thin air in that instant.

Now, all the cultivators of the Blazing Fire Sect who deserved to die were dead, and they had no direction in this world.

If they wanted to continue living, they would definitely have to bow and scrape to Lin Chen.

Since that was the case, they might as well die directly!

"Is that so? Since you want to die, then go ahead and commit suicide."

Hearing their words, Lin Chen sneered.

He could tell that, at their core, these two did not actually want to die.

Otherwise, when Wu Zhixiong was escaping just now, wouldn't these two have also considered escaping with him?

"Hmph, suicide it is! You look down on us, don't you?"

Seeing Lin Chen's cold gaze, Wu Long and Wu Hu lifted their necks, looking arrogant.

As they spoke, the two of them directly drew the swords at their waists, poised to commit suicide.

Seeing this, even Lin Chen was a little stunned.

He had clearly just used a psychological tactic, but he hadn't expected these two to actually go through with it. They were a bit too impulsive, weren't they?

"Wait!"

However, just as the two were about to directly slit their throats, Zhang Ying, who had been silent beside them, suddenly stepped forward and stopped them.

"What is it? Is there anything else? Don't think that just because you're pretty, we'll yield!"

Seeing Zhang Ying step forward, Wu Long and Wu Hu still showed no respect.

Today, the two of them were determined to commit suicide and would absolutely not allow the person in front of them to look down on their brotherhood.

Although they were orphans before, they had their own integrity!

They would never beg for pity just to stay alive!

"If you answer one question for me, I can open the formation and let you leave alive."

"This way, it's just a transaction. We get what we want, and you get to live. How about it?"

Zhang Ying looked at Wu Long and Wu Hu, stating her condition.

She could see that these two were just being stubborn and proud, not truly seeking death.

"Oh? Is that true? What question is it, speak quickly!"

Hearing that they could live by answering a question, the eyes of the two suddenly lit up, and their expressions were full of excitement.

What a joke, even though Wu Zhixiong had betrayed them, they were still living people!

How could they not want to live?

Their desire to commit suicide earlier was merely to preserve their last shred of dignity.

After all, for them, with the inner sect elders of the Blazing Fire Sect now decimated, and Wu Zhixiong having abandoned them all and fled,

As for the outer sect elders of the Blazing Fire Sect beneath the valley, under the onslaught of those like wolves and tigers, how could they possibly survive?

It could be said that, at this very moment, they had lost everything!

If they lost even their last bit of dignity, then there would truly be no meaning in living in this world!

"Just now, the reason Wu Zhixiong went to that place and used the steel nails he held, was it you two who took him there?"

Zhang Ying pointed at the large hole that had just been repaired and asked Wu Long and Wu Hu.

The place where Wu Zhixiong had used the steel nails to dig a hole and escape was the weak point of the entire formation.

It could be said that this weak point, other than herself, even Lin Chen did not know about.

How did Wu Zhixiong find it so accurately? He found this loophole in one go?

"That's right, we took him there. What about it?"

Upon receiving their answer, Wu Long and Wu Hu exchanged glances, their expressions full of curiosity.

"Why did you let him drill there?"

After getting their confirmation, Zhang Ying's expression sank, and she continued to inquire.

"Hmph, this is called talent!"

"Our brothers have been extremely sensitive to formations since childhood."

"Many formations, in front of us, only need a glance to know where their weak points are!"

Hearing Zhang Ying's question, Wu Long snorted coldly, his expression full of defiance.

It was precisely because of this advantage that they had a place in the sect and eventually became one of the inner sect elders of the Blazing Fire Sect.

Therefore, after seeing Zhang Ying's formation, they immediately knew the weakest point of the formation.

It was for this reason that they took Wu Zhixiong to that place, and finally dug a large hole in the formation, allowing them to escape.

"Alright, I understand."

"I just want to tell you, perhaps, I know your background."

"If you truly don't want to know who your family is, or if you have any relatives alive in this world, then feel free to leave, or feel free to die."

After receiving a definite answer, Zhang Ying smiled slightly and said to the two.

"What? You know our background? Are you sure?"

Hearing Zhang Ying's words, Wu Long and Wu Hu thought they had misheard.

Good heavens, even Wu Zhixiong, who had raised them, didn't know their background. And this stranger woman, whom they had only met once, claimed to know their background. Wasn't that a bit too far-fetched?

"That's right, I do!"

"However, I don't have a hundred percent certainty, but I have at least eighty percent."

"It depends on whether you dare to believe me."

Zhang Ying nodded, her expression full of affirmation.
