Hearing this, everyone sighed in a low voice, and their morale had fallen to the bottom. No one spoke for a while, and the atmosphere was quite depressing.

"Since that's the case, you might as well separate. So many people gather together, and the goal is too big, it will easily attract the attention of demons." The bearded man who had been following Lu Yong looked at Bai Xiaoyun and broke his silence and said.

A middle-aged man with prominent eyebrows looked down and was originally lowering his head. He heard this and immediately said dissatisfied: "You are so light-hearted that as a monk, you can naturally disperse yourself, but what should those people do?"

As the ancestor of a small clan in Jianye City, the last blood of his clan came from behind. If everyone was scattered, he would never be able to protect himself, let alone bringing so many clan members.

"Fellow Daoist Chen Chuan, things have come to this point, don't blame me for being rude. In today's situation, everyone is a clay Buddha who crosses the river and cannot protect themselves. If you still hope that everyone can protect your tribe, it would be a bit too selfish?" Lu Yong said after hearing this.

"Senior Lu, if someone else says this, I can't refute it, but if you say it from your mouth, I have to say something." Chen Chuan said with a hint of anger as he tried his best to suppress it in his eyes.

When Lu Yong heard this, he frowned and looked at him with his eyes narrowed.

Seeing this, Chen Chuan's momentum suddenly became three points weaker, but he still did not retreat and continued:

"Before, everyone respected you as a senior and was very respectful to you. Isn't it just that you hope you can protect everyone in times of crisis? You also have this promise. But what did you do when you were in Jianmen Pass?"

As soon as this statement came out, many people around him looked at Lu Yong. They were all from the many small families who had followed him before. They had the same doubt in their hearts. Why did Lu Yong not rescue him when his own tribe was attacked?

"What do you mean by this? If Senior Lu didn't break the city gate and let everyone escape, our casualties would only be even worse now." The bearded man immediately retorted.

"I'm not ashamed of being favored by others, but I'm not grateful?" The few people who had gathered with Lu Yong before also echoed.

Shen Yu, Bai Bi and others couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths, showing a sarcastic smile.

They knew very well that if Shen Luo had not climbed the city to break the sword formation and lifted the ban on the city wall to issue magic circles, how could Lu Yong have been able to open the city gate?

"Now isn't the time to blame each other, right?" Bai Xiaoyun asked.

When everyone heard this, they immediately fell silent and stopped talking.

"Senior Bai, you can't leave Jianmen Pass now. We can't go straight through Wushan, right?" said the bearded man hesitantly.

Bai Xiaoyun was silent when he heard this, without saying anything.

"Senior Bai, don't you really want to take everyone into Wushan, right?" asked an octogenarian.

"The situation in Wushan is complicated and there are indeed great risks, but it is the closest way to Chang'an." Bai Xiaoyun sighed and said.

"I don't want to go to Wushan. I would rather go back to Jianye and wait for death than enter Wushan." A monk from a small Jianye family shook his head and said.

"I don't want to go in either. I will escape with my tribe and travel thousands of miles to Chang'an. I am not afraid of dying from a foreign land, but I will never want to bury Wushan..." Another man said with horror on his face.

"Bombing your bones? I'm afraid that the bones will remain when I enter Wushan." Another man said in despair.

"Senior Bai, if you plan to enter Wushan, please forgive me for not being able to walk with you." At this time, Lu Yong's voice suddenly rang.

"So too..." Then, four or five people answered together.

Among these people, including the man with a beard, were all casual cultivators who had previously surrounded him.

"What do you mean?" Bai Bi couldn't help asking when he saw this.

"Since you don't want to be this evil person, then I will do it. I also say this bad thing. I think you are actually very clear in your heart that taking these ordinary people is useless except for being a burden, right?" Lu Yong said.

"I finally said what I thought..." Chen Chuan said with a straight face.

"You don't need to sarcasm. Are these words the only ones in my heart? I think everyone knows it very well. If you still don't know how to choose, the whole army will be wiped out. What do you think?" Lu Yong said without changing his expression.

"You..." Chen Chuan didn't know how to refute for a moment.

When the monks heard this, they all lowered their heads and showed a look of entanglement on their faces.

"What Fellow Daoist Lu said is right..." At this time, another voice sounded, and others looked at him one after another.

Lu Yong raised his eyebrows, looking a little surprised, because it was not someone else who spoke, but Shen Luo.

"But have you ever thought that at this difficult time, if we, as human race, cannot help each other, can we pray for whom we can protect us? If the human race only cares about escaping our lives and the mortals are willing to become blood food, will there be a chance of revival in the future?" Shen Luo changed his tone and asked.

As soon as this sentence was spoken, the monks who had already fled with their descendants changed slightly.

"Look at those children, they are the future of the human race. If we don't even want to protect them, then the human race will have a future?" Shen Luo continued, although his tone was calm, the questioning in his words shocked everyone.

Everyone's eyes swept over the young children in the crowd, and their eyes couldn't help but become compassionate and softened.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, everyone can tell the great truth. But entering Wushan is no different from seeking death. We are forbidden to accompany us." Lu Yong said with anger flashed in his eyes.

"The Tao is different, so we don't plan for each other. Since fellow Taoist Lu has already thought of leaving, we will not force ourselves to stay." Shen Luo said immediately.

When everyone heard this, their eyes flashed with surprise. No one expected that Shen Luo would take the initiative to ask him to leave. Even Bai Xiaoyun couldn't help but cast doubtful gazes at him.

No matter how Lu Yong said that, he was also a cultivator in the out-of-body stage, and he was even the most powerful person among the people except Bai Xiaoyun. If he left, it would be a loss no matter how he looked at it.

"This person has long been separated. Even if we say something, it means little. Even if we try to keep him, it is just to win over more monks to leave together." Shen Luo's expression remained unmoved and sent a message to Bai Xiaoyun.

"I heard what you said, that's true." Bai Xiaoyun replied in a voice.

"Look, once Lu Yong said he was leaving, he would definitely be more than the only one who left. Before, they were gathered together, and most of them were discussing leaving." Shen Luo said in a voice transmission.
