Chapter 1846 - The lackey
Chapter 1846: The lackey
All they could do was walk on, until, when they were inside, the stone door closed with a crash behind them. The previously clear sight turned dim for a moment due to the faint lights emitted by a few lightings on the walls.
Feng Jiu and Bi San walked in front. However, all of a sudden, a person came up from behind and shoved past them, accompanied by a low curse.
“Lackey! Get lost! Don’t get in my way!” A man scolded, glanced at Feng Jiu scornfully and strode forward. However, at this time, his shoulder was caught by a man behind him.
“Watch what you’re saying!” Bi San clasped the man’s shoulder and stared at him. “Who are you calling lackey?”
“I talked about this kid, do you have a problem with it? Isn’t he a lackey?” The man turned around. Since the place was confined with no one from the Shadow Night Palace to monitor them, he had the courage to point at Feng Jiu’s nose and curse at her.
Feng Jiu looked at the finger pointing at her and her eyes flashed. She had the impulse to break the finger. However, in the dim light, she just licked the corner of her mouth and suppressed the impulse. She looked away quietly and paid attention to the movement inside.
“Watch your mouth!” Bi San stared at the man. Perhaps he thought that Feng Jiu was still young and had saved him, so he wanted to protect her whenever he could and naturally did not allow her to be bullied.
“What did I say? Tell me, everyone, am I not right? Didn’t the boy rush forward to save Ghost Elder to ingratiate himself to those people? What is this style, if not a lackey?” That man said disdainfully while staring at Feng Jiu, thinking that she didn’t talk back due to her guilt.
Lei Xiao frowned. “Don’t quarrel, we are here to do a task. We don’t know what danger lies ahead of us. It doesn’t look good to have a quarrel between our own people here.”
Lei Xiao glanced at the man and said, “Besides, I don’t think it wrong for the Ninth to come forward at that time. If he didn’t rush up, those people would have died more miserably.”
Hearing this, the others were silent. Obviously, they had thought of this for a long time. Therefore, they didn’t say much about his action at that time. However, they were still surprised by his acuity and reaction. What’s more, they didn’t expect that he would help those people at that moment and gave them relief.
“Hmph! Who knows what he thought at the time? Didn’t he just say it himself? Didn’t he consider himself the man of the Shadow Night Palace? He’s just a lackey.” That big man obviously despised Feng Jiu. Because she was appointed as their captain, he became more indignant, thus insulted her and called her a lackey.
“Let’s go! Let’s take a look at the situation ahead.” Feng Jiu glanced at the man. Without paying any more attention to him, she pulled Bi San to move forward.
Seeing this, Lei Xiao did not speak any more. He walked past the man and followed Feng Jiu. The people behind him naturally followed. The guy who was in the same communal bunk as Feng Jiu also walked past this cursing man. After a brief glance at him, the man went forward.
Seeing that all the people were on the young man’s side, the man felt dissatisfied and resentful. He clenched his teeth and quickly followed with a low curse.
Just wait! He wanted to see how the kid would survive at this place!
