Perhaps with a few good words and some bitter complaints, Jun Mohuang would help them kill the demons and they would have enough crystal cores to pass this assessment.
Hence, clinging to Jun Mohuang was the best choice.
“As you said, I’m just trash. I can’t bring so many of you along. Be smarter.”
Jun Mohuang couldn’t help but sneer as she looked at their previously expressionless faces.
She had given them a chance, but these people did not take it.
She was smart enough to see through their scheme.
“Miss Jun, we were ignorant before. Forgive us!”
“Miss Jun, we were wrong. Young Master Bai and the others are too scary. We’re not strong enough to resist. We were forced.”
Upon seeing Jun Mohuang dig up the past, these civilians revealed pitiful expressions and looked at her eagerly.
Jun Mohuang couldn’t be bothered to look at them and left with the others.
They claimed they were not strong enough and had no choice. But these were not reasons to curry favor with Young Master Bai even while their partner was about to be killed after being humiliated.
In Jun Mohuang’s opinion, being weak wasn’t scary.
This kind of cold-blooded indifference was the most terrifying.
She wasn’t a busybody to begin with, but this time, Young Master Bai was leftover business from the last time she wasn’t done dealing with him. This young man called Shi Feng had also spoken up for her, so she decided to follow and get rid of these people as well.
These chameleons really annoyed her. She was not a saint, why should she bring them along?
“Miss Jun, take Xiao Ling along.”
Shi Fen walked past another girl and helped her up.
“Sure.”
Jun Mohuang nodded. Just like Shi Shan, this girl had been bullied by Young Master Bai just now.
Staying here would not end well.
“Jun Mohuang, we painstakingly collected those crystal cores just now. Why are you only giving them to them and not us!”
Upon seeing Jun Mohuang refuse to take them in, the few civilians who had been fawning over Young Master Bai immediately turned against her.
In that case, it was better to save some crystal cores for themselves.
“If you want the crystal cores, sure, as long as you can beat me.”
Jun Mohuang smiled. These people were interesting.
Previously, when Young Master Bai enslaved them, they did not dare to say this. Now that it was Jun Mohuang, they wanted the crystals back.
Did they think she was easy to bully?!
These people immediately cowered at her words.
“Pfft, she’s just a noble. What’s the big deal!”
“That’s right. You don’t even help us to the end. Hypocrite!”
Seeing Jun Mohuang and the others leave, the civilians she had abandoned clenched their fists hatefully.
Most of them regretted it. If they had known this would happen, they would have responded enthusiastically when Jun Mohuang asked them why they didn’t resist. They wouldn’t have mocked her for being trash.
Someone revealed a gloomy expression. “What should we do? When we encounter other nobles later, we’ll be enslaved to kill the demons.”
One of the civilians who had previously tried to curry favor with Young Master Bai sneered. “Humph, that’s simple. Let’s just tell the Head Examiner that Jun Mohuang killed Young Master Bai.”
“That’s right. When the Head Examiner finds out who killed Young Master Bai, he’ll definitely owe us a favor and protect us from those nobles.”
His suggestion was immediately echoed by another fawner.
