World-saving Plan: The Only Savior

Chapter 1801 - 67: Chaos (Part 2)

As soon as Alman spoke, he immediately drew angry glares from the surrounding Lan Family disciples, for they had not forgotten that he was the mastermind behind all this trouble.

Although this person was not commendable, his words further verified Elder Lan Qi’s speculation. At this moment, some Lan Family disciples began to secretly gnash their teeth at Zhang Xiaoman, and the onlookers also showed disdainful expressions.

Even though the Rothschild family was detestable, it was understandable since both sides were competitors. Acts of sneak attacks and ambushes on the battlefield were within reason, and no one would question that.

However, Elder Ji Xing was different, as his betrayal was blatant. Betrayal is despised and loathed by everyone, regardless of time or occasion.

As a result, the crowd began to discuss, and everyone looked at Zhang Xiaoman with unfriendly gazes.

This person would find it difficult to survive in this Star Domain in the future. No matter how strong he was, no one would want someone with a history of betrayal.

Zhang Xiaoman silently watched all this unfold, without saying much, for no amount of words would be useful at this moment. Moreover, he indeed had no way to prove anything with the spatial device as everyone claimed.

"Ji Xing... how could you..."

Lan Yue looked at Zhang Xiaoman with a complex expression, her eyes filled with sorrow. She never imagined that this highly talented younger brother would commit such a betrayal.

She hadn’t interacted with Zhang Xiaoman for a short period, and originally had quite a good impression of him. However, she realized knowing someone by face does not mean knowing their true nature. The true Ji Xing turned out to be this kind of person...

Zhang Xiaoman sighed, shaking his head lightly with an air of helplessness, and said:

"Lan Qi, there is one thing you said that I agree with, and that is Lan Ji had no reason to betray... After all, he is the own brother of the Lan Gu Clan Chief and always obedient to him, so how could he possibly betray?"

He paused slightly, as if recalling a scene in the ruin space, remembering Lan Gu’s previous incredulous look.

Then, in a deep tone, he slowly continued:

"However, it is precisely because he is Lan Gu’s closest person, the least likely to betray, that it became so easy to succeed!"

His words plunged many into silence and deep thought, but Lan Qi clearly had no intention of letting him go. Seeing the gate of the Plague Relics closed and the peace agreement void, he immediately attacked without hesitation.

Lan Qi rose into the air, entering a half-energy state, and then shot an array of blue strands from his body towards Zhang Xiaoman.

Zhang Xiaoman did not dodge, instead opening an Ice Crystal Shield in front of him. The shield appeared to be made of ice, but its strength was far beyond what ice could match.

The numerous rays sent by Lan Qi silently vanished upon contact with the Ice Crystal Shield, disappearing like a stone sinking into the ocean, as if swallowed by the shield.

"How is this possible!?"

Lan Qi was shocked, recalling how Alman was nearly captured by this person, realizing the difficulty of dealing with him, and quickly called for reinforcements.

"Elders of the Lan Family, attack with me. We must not let this man escape! Capture him first, and upon returning to the clan for interrogation, we will naturally find out if he is the one who killed the Clan Leader!"

At his command, a group of low-level elders leaped into action, numbering more than ten.

Although most were low-level elders, they were nonetheless elders, and their strength was not weak, at least at the Upper Control Level. The crowd present did not believe Zhang Xiaoman had any chance of turning the tables, even if he could defeat Alman.

"Since the Lan Family has taken things this far, so be it. From now on, I will have nothing more to do with the Lan Family."

"But for your words just now, I will not kill you, considering it a last favor to Lan Gu."

As Zhang Xiaoman spoke, his tone was calm, as if discussing something trivial and insignificant.

However, his words sounded like sheer arrogance and provocation to everyone else.

"How arrogant! With the Lan Family’s more than a dozen elders taking action, you believe there’s any chance you can escape today? Speaking of sparing us, you are indeed ignorant of your own limitations!"

As he spoke, Lan Qi fired another volley of blue rays, and other elders who just joined the battle also launched their attacks, each using their signature skills. For a moment, the entire platform’s sky was lit up with various dazzling energies.

Zhang Xiaoman showed no sign of wanting to flee, instead expanding the Ice Crystal Shield’s coverage to encompass himself completely.

Then, countless energy attacks rained down on him. So many attacks concentrated on one place made it difficult for many to see the situation clearly.

But it was unnecessary to see clearly, as no matter how powerful he was, it seemed impossible to withstand such an attack, right?
