Chapter 2939: Chapter 2959: Is Your Skin a Bit Too Thick?

Yo-ho, you seriously dare to ask?

Before Lin Chen could answer, the eyes of the surrounding team leaders had already fallen on Kong Wenlong’s face in unison, their gazes filled with surprise.

What is this?

Borrowing?

Requisitioning?

Team leader, how could you have the audacity to make such a request?

They’ve already said it’s a life-saving means, and you just ask people to leave it behind? That’s going too far, isn’t it?

Just because it’s powerful and there are many Great Demons, you just feel entitled to ask for it?

Kong Wenlong certainly felt the questioning looks from the people, and for a moment, his expression turned rather embarrassed as he hurriedly explained, "Lin Chen, don’t get me wrong, I’ve no intention of coveting your Magical Treasure, it’s just that releasing Demonic Beasts to assist in battle isn’t against the rules. If you could leave this behind, when other teams go into battle, they could suddenly release a Group of Demons to assist, which would certainly be another heavy blow to the Demon Race, demoralizing them. Additionally, it would also help reduce casualties among our Ninth Division soldiers, which would be a significant merit for the many soldiers of the Ninth Division."

"Aren’t you supposed to be returning to base for rest, unable to join the battle for a short while? If you leave this behind and earn merit, it would count as yours as well. We won’t covet any of the credit. When you return, I will make sure to return this item to you in its entirety."

"By doing so, even if you don’t go into battle, you would still obtain many military exploits, and perhaps even get a chance to enter the Spirit Ascending Array, greatly enhancing your strength. The Ninth Division would also gain fame, and at the same time, it would save many lives of soldiers who might otherwise die in battle. This seems like hitting many birds with one stone, what do you think?"

The expressions of the many team leaders were varied, most of them didn’t speak up. After all, these words were too brazen for them to say out loud.

It’s their Magical Treasure that is powerful, that’s their own ability!

And you just ask for it, isn’t that a bit too shameless?

Although they all felt that Kong Wenlong’s proposal was a bit excessive, if Lin Chen really left the Evil Summoning Banner behind, it would indeed bring tremendous help to the Ninth Division and truly reduce the death toll. For a moment, the team leaders all kept silent, their eyes once again all fell on Lin Chen’s face.

What if his heart softened, and he agreed?

Gao Ming hurriedly chimed in, "We’re all brothers who have faced life and death together in the trenches. With such a heaven-defying method at your disposal, you could help many comrades of the Ninth Division to reduce casualties, and you could also earn military exploits, so why not do it?"

Chen Chong also said with a laugh, "Right, your three teams have suffered many injuries and won’t be earning any military exploits for a while. If you leave this behind, you can participate in many battles and earn tremendous credit... "

The three of them took turns speaking, quickly putting Lin Chen on a pedestal with their words.

Yet Lin Chen was neither anxious nor perturbed, answering with a helpless look on his face, "If I could, I would also like to earn military exploits, but these Great Demons were given to me by a friend as a debt of honor to save my life. After all, my strength is trivial; coming to this battlefield without any other means would be equivalent to heading to my death."

"Previously, I was merely a Daluo Ultimate Immortal, do you think these Great Demons would willingly obey my orders? They’re not fighting for me at all; they’re fighting for themselves. My friend said they only need to fight for me a certain number of times before they can regain their freedom."

"If it weren’t for the dire situation just now, my life hanging by a thread, I wouldn’t have wanted to release them. After all, every time I let them out, they are one step closer to leaving me. This is my last resort for survival; I can’t use it unless it’s absolutely necessary."

"I also want to help the other comrades of the Ninth Division, but this... It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s really impossible... Team leader, I can only fail to meet your kind expectations. I haven’t thought much about military exploits; I just want to safely get through this war between Immortals and Demons with my disciples from the Haoran Sect, hoping to survive and wishing that fewer of my disciples die..."

Kong Wenlong’s face showed a rather reluctant smile, "Is that so? Well, I oversimplified it. If it’s your lifesaving item and has a limitation on uses, then naturally it can’t be wasted carelessly!"

Lin Chen said with a smile, "Thank you for your understanding, team leader!"

Kong Wenlong, finding nothing more to say, waved his hand, "Go ahead, and don’t forget to bring the record of your exploits later."

"Yes!"

Lin Chen didn’t linger any longer, cleanly leading the thousand people of three teams away from the frontline camp towards the direction of the army encampment behind the defenses.

Chen Shuihe and others followed beside Lin Chen, giving him peculiar looks as if they wanted to say something but didn’t dare to speak out.

Lin Chen turned his head to look at them and said with a laugh, "If you want to say something, just say it. Why hold it back?"

Chen Shuihe shook his head, "Nothing. It’s just that I’m extremely impressed with you, Sect Master!"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Impressed with me for what, spouting lies with ease?"

Chi Ya chuckled, "How can they be lies? A small injury is still an injury. My third team really did suffer quite a few injuries and do need rest."

Lin Chen laughed, "I’ve shown my hand, and if I continue to stay in the military camp, I could well be targeted by other means. Let’s avoid trouble for now under the guise of the rotation rule and make plans later."

After a pause, Lin Chen glanced over at the Haoran Sect disciples following behind and spoke softly, "Winning the war between Immortals and Demons is certainly important, but the lives of our Haoran Sect disciples are just as important..."
