NOVEL NEXT Chapter 161.2: Dignity
In the end, she let out a helpless smile.
This was her disciple, someone who walked a unique path.
In pursuit of the righteous path, he was willing to disregard even his own life.
He would rather face death head-on than cling to a feeble existence.
No one could tarnish the righteous path he had upheld throughout his life.
For Xiao Yan, if he couldn’t live with honor, then he might as well be dead!
Staring at Xiao Yan’s determined face, Yue Mei suddenly froze.
In her view, Xiao Yan’s face gradually overlapped with Xiao Li’s.
When Yue Mei first met Xiao Li, he spoke with the same determination when he talked about reconciling the Snake-People tribe with Humans, a statement that seemed like a fantasy.
This was her proud younger brother, the one who made Xiao Li feel so proud.
“Heh…”
Yue Mei couldn’t help but smile, her voice choked up.
Indeed, they were true siblings.
Their personalities were so alike.
“Well, since it’s like this, I don’t want to sacrifice myself either.” Yue Mei stood up, her gaze fixed on the slowly descending 4 Tribe Leader, “If we’re leaving, let’s leave together! I still want to go back and invite your sister to share the credit with her! Let her see how loyal her friend is!”
“Ah! It should be this way!” Xiao Yan nodded firmly, looking at the figure of Yin shi and the other 3 Tribe Leaders who had already landed in front of them.
The faces of the Yin Shi group revealed complex expressions.
They just couldn’t understand.
Why did Xiao Yan come back when he could have run away?
In their view, Xiao Yan’s return was as good as seeking death.
He should have understood that himself.
“Kid,” Yin Shi slowly spoke, his old voice entering Xiao Yan’s ears, and he asked, “Why… did you come back?”
Facing Yin Shi’s questioning, Xiao Yan was first taken aback, then he stood up straight, stuck the Heavy Xuan Ruler into the sand on the side, and faced Yin Shi fearlessly, clasping his fists with a serious expression.
“Because this kid is certain that if I were to abandon my lifesaver today, I would never have the face to live in this world again!”
“Since it’s all death to me, then why not die with honor! Die with dignity!”
“I know that you leaders are chasing me all the way here because you fear that I will pose a threat to the Snake-People tribe in the future.”
“I understand that words alone won’t work in explaining this, but I won’t just surrender. I will fight with all my might.
“If I die in the hands of you Tribe Leaders due to my lack of strength, then you can dispose of my body as you wish, whether it’s destruction or burial here, please feel free to do so.”
“I only hope that you leaders won’t inform my elder sister of my death, and most importantly, do not reveal that I was killed by the Snake-People Tribe.”
“I don’t want my family to be sad because of this, and I don’t want my death to affect my elder sister’s ideals.”
“I’m begging you!”
