Chapter 3151: Chapter 3151: Or Else, I’ll Kill Myself!
“You wretched lot, hurry and bring the child over, otherwise, the Saintess Sect will grind your bones to dust!” The female disciple, seeing the two Elders being threatened, gritted her teeth in anger and cursed.
These men were truly hateful, striking their fatal blow at the most critical moment, stepping right on their sore spot.
“Ha.”
The man, unfazed by the insults, chuckled lightly.
“Go ahead and curse, at worst we’ll just keep dragging this out. If I’m not mistaken, you didn’t bring any food, did you? Let’s see how many days you can last against us!”
In the desert, going without water for a day is already unbearable. If the people from the Saintess Sect were to drag this on for two days, wouldn’t they be at the mercy of being killed?
He really wanted to drag things to that point. After all, they had quite a bit of food and water at hand, rationing it could sustain them for three to five days.
The other men holding the children hostage heard the leader’s words and their eyes lit up.
Indeed, what did they have to fear? They had food, water, and the children; it was the people of the Saintess Sect who should be cautious.
“Don’t come any closer, or I’ll kill myself!”
One of the bolder kids, clearly aware of their importance to the Saintess Sect, shouted loudly to the two Elders of the Sect.
“Yes, we don’t need these uncles to lift a finger, we’ll die ourselves before letting you succeed!” Another boy also shouted out; all of them were the focus of their families’ cultivation.
Though they were pampered, they were ultimately the hope of the next generation and knew how to use their brains.
“You all…”
Hearing their words, the two Elders were almost enraged to death.
How did they end up in such a situation? This wasn’t in their plans at all. In their setup, these people, whether men or children, should listen to them obediently, doing whatever was asked—even going to their deaths.
But now, not only did these people dare to resist them, even these little brats dared to speak harshly to them.
The most critical point was that they were right. In their hurry to chase, they had indeed not brought food and water. If they kept dragging it out here, they couldn’t afford it either.
“Fine, you’re very good!”
One of the Elders, who appeared older, scanned those across them with deep eyes, then looked at the other Elder.
“Dragging it out like this isn’t the answer. Why don’t I stay here to guard, and you go for reinforcements?” She whispered, lowering her voice.
“The others should have gone chasing by now, how can there be much reinforcement left?” The other Elder frowned, also speaking quietly.
There were many who had escaped, and all the Elders had gone out to chase, along with many disciples. At this moment, the only reinforcement left was the Sect Master, but the Sect Master was busy, and couldn’t spare the manpower.
“If all else fails, bringing back some food and water would still be better.” The older Elder conceded.
She closed her eyes, even though she didn’t want to lower her stance, she had to admit that those across from her made her hesitate to act.
If only one child was being held hostage, she could use her cultivation level to snatch the child back and turn against the men, but there were too many people on the other side.
