Chapter 1381: Chapter 778: Seizing the Opportunity_2
Thinking of this, Baldy let out another hysterical roar.
"Whatās the point of continuing like this, we definitely canāt just follow othersā orders anymore, or else whatās the point of our existence in this world."
"There really is no point at all, it would just feel extremely painful. Believe me, Iām just doing this for your own good."
"I donāt want you guys to become someone elseās slaves, I just want you to be able to live as you wish. You must be moved by now."
Baldy realized they had no expression, but still felt they must have been moved.
Who wouldnāt want such a life? Everyone does.
But Baldy stayed silent for a while, and didnāt receive any response.
The only response he got was endless silence.
Qin Yuan thought Baldy was even more ridiculous, which was expected.
The audience around them felt somewhat speechless as they lowered their voices.
"Itās already this stage, and Baldy is still daydreaming!"
"Yeah, the four of them went up together and still couldnāt beat Yuanqing, itās not like they didnāt know this already."
"They must be delusional now; really, itās unbelievable."
"Once they donāt choose to surrender, then they will just continue to be beaten."
"Who cares, just let him be beaten."
They didnāt pity Baldy at all.
They thought Baldy brought it upon himself.
Initially, it was indeed Baldy who provoked Crescent Moon.
So the responsibility was all on Baldy.
They really didnāt feel pity for Baldy.
Even if he were to be pitied, a pitiable person must have a detestable side.
Baldy carefully observed them, noticed they werenāt speaking, then gathered his courage to say.
"Since being moved is not an issue anymore, even if youāve agreed just now, you can still change your minds if you want to."
"Thereās always a chance, no need to always submit to him; we need to live for ourselves."
"Why must we follow othersā orders? Once we do, wonāt we feel terribly uncomfortable?"
Now he wanted to win back Black Bear and Brother Shanās hearts; it seemed they were slightly moved.
Since there was a slight change, he had to persuade them well and couldnāt give up now.
He refused to believe he would fail; he was sure to succeed.
Baldy was once again cheering himself up in his mind.
Right at this moment, Qin Yuan slowly glanced at Black Bear.
"I suppose youāve also heard what Baldy said; given that, I wish for you to respond now, what exactly are you thinking?"
"Do you want to be brothers with me, or stay with him? I donāt have much time for you to think, Iāll give you one minute."
"So within one minute, hurry up and think it through. Donāt dawdle, I donāt like people who dawdle!"
Qin Yuan was essentially addressing Ling Yu.
He had given Ling Yu a big shock; after all, time was pressing.
Without letting Ling Yu make a choice, wouldnāt he have done his utmost already?
It was apparent that he treated Ling Yu very differently; without comparison, there would be no hurt.
Just then, Black Bear finally showed a trace of reaction on his face, just as he was about to speak.
Brother Shan suddenly spoke out.
"Black Bear, you donāt need to listen to all thatās being said here, you just need to follow your own heart."
"Whichever way you decide, we will fully support you. Of course, Iād really hope you would continue to be good brothers with me."
"But thatās just what I hope for. The specifics all come down to your choice; your choice is the most important. If you donāt want to..."
Brother Shan suddenly sighed deeply, his expression becoming incredibly serious.
He added another sentence.
"Then no matter what I wish for, itās useless."
Brother Shanās meaning was very clear.
That was to let him choose to compromise.
After all, compromising would allow him to take one less beating.
Thinking of this, Black Bear still nodded, but he didnāt answer Brother Shan.
Instead, he set his gaze on Qin Yuan, with a consistently serious look.
"Since youāve spoken to this extent, then Iāll obviously have to follow you. Letās be brothers."
Itās just being compelled by the situation.
If only I had chosen to compromise from the start, then I wouldnāt have had to take a beating.
Itās still not too late to regret your actions.
At this moment, Qin Yuanās face revealed a satisfied expression, "Alright, good brother."
Black Bear chuckled and said nothing more.
After all, it was a compromise.
At this time, the surrounding audience couldnāt help but express their amazement.
"I didnāt expect even Black Bear to compromise."
"This compromise came too quickly, literally in no time at all."
"Now that all three Black Bears have compromised, will Ling Yu and the Baldy compromise too?"
"Thereās a good chance for Ling Yu, but I donāt know about the Baldy."
"The Baldy is quite stubborn; I reckon heāll hold out till the end."
But what does it mean to hold out till the end?
Isnāt it just to endure a lot of grievances in the end?
Better to choose to compromise straight away.
That way thereās no need to endure so many grievances.
Just then, Qin Yuan subconsciously looked towards Ling Yu.
He had just bought Ling Yu a lot of time.
Now, indeed, it was time for Ling Yu to give an answer.
Seeing this scene, Ling Yuās lips revealed a slight smile.
"Actually, you donāt have to keep watching me here; Iāve already understood what you are thinking. Since you have invited me so sincerely."
"I will certainly accommodate you, Iām not oblivious. Iām quite tactful, especially when thereās something favorable for me."
"I will choose to echo it. Just now, you and I can be considered foes-turned-friends, and Iām really glad to have had a fight with you!"
Indeed, itās through fighting that friends can be made.
He hadnāt received any injuries.
So, the other side had shown mercy.
Given that, then letās become brothers.
Putting it nicely itās ābrotherhoodā, but bluntly itās āunderlingā.
But thatās ok.
Ling Yu thought to himself and then revealed a faint smile.
Seeing Ling Yuās smile, Qin Yuanās face also revealed a shallow grin.
"Ling Yu, I didnāt expect you to be such an understanding person. It seems I havenāt misjudged you. Since youāve put it this way."
"We are definitely going to be brothers all along, helping each other out, and there wonāt be a chance for enmity."
"I am very decisive. Once I decide to establish a relationship with someone, I wonāt do anything to betray them."
Qin Yuan was expressing his stance here.
He was also covertly schooling them.
Letting them know not to betray him.
Besides, the consequences of betraying him are indeed miserable.
Thereās no escaping it.
Thinking of this, Qin Yuanās gaze turned slightly cold, then immediately concealed it.
"If someone is good to me, I will surely reciprocate with the same attitude. But if thereās any act of betrayal towards me."
"Then I will make them wish they were dead. After all, from the start, we agreed to get along well and not betray each other, didnāt we?"
"Since we agreed on no betrayal, there must be no betrayal. Iāve stated my principles; I hope you can take them to heart."
Qin Yuan knew that the Baldy had not yet compromised.
But this message was also meant for the Baldy.
As long as they chose to compromise, the rest would follow naturally and willingly.
It still has to be a step by step development.
Itās not possible to achieve everything at once.
At first, he indeed wanted to win their loyalty and allegiance.
But later he realized that the strategy was wrong, so he changed his way of thinking.
Qin Yuan pondered in his heart, then glanced meaningfully at the Baldy once more.
The Baldyās heart already harbored a towering rage.
His fists were also clenching tighter and tighter, his face growing unspeakably grim, glaring at Qin Yuan.
But Qin Yuan didnāt care and just sneered.
"Why are you glaring at me? Are you dissatisfied with what Iāve said?"
