Seeing the scene, that person thought he was undoubtedly going to die.
Although Zi Yi, this venomous woman, was absurd and shameless, her peculiar Martial Arts were indeed highly formidable.
As a Six-bag Elder, he was no match for Zi Yi.
However, the expected pain did not come; rather, an alluringly charming female voice rang in his ears, "Beggar Gang? Gongsun He, you, a traitor of the Beggar Gang, also dare to claim yourself as part of it?"
The whole process of Zi Yi groveling before Wenren Jie was seen by He Tiantian, all the elders, and the Squad Leaders.
Especially seeing Zi Yi bearing the title of "Gang Leader" of the New Beggar Gang, but blindly obeying a dubious character like the Master of Carefree Pavilion, the three elders and all the Beggar Gang Disciples were nearly infuriated.
"Sect Leader He is right; although Gongsun He left the Beggar Gang, he still wreaks havoc under the flag of the Beggar Gang!"
"Fortunately, we encountered this today, so we can explain it. Otherwise, wouldn’t we have allowed Gongsun He and that despicable Zi Yi of Carefree Pavilion to tarnish the century-long reputation of the Beggar Gang?"
The crowd could not help but feel secretly fortunate, and their looks toward He Tiantian, the gang leader, were filled with respect and gratitude.
Afterward, seeing the grief and despair of the "New Beggar Gang" disciples, the three elders and others felt a kinship in their anger.
What outraged people even more was Gongsun He’s sophistry.
Listen to his words; he actually didn’t think a shameless person like Zi Yi did not deserve to be a leader, but instead made excuses for his ridiculous deeds.
Previously, the three elders still considered Gongsun He’s contributions to the Beggar Gang and many years of brotherhood.
They thought that he led people away just because he couldn’t stand a woman being the leader.
But now it seemed that this man was rotten to the core, not at all like one of the Beggar Gang.
He was just a profit-driven man with no spirit of chivalry, a disgrace.
His departure from the Beggar Gang was not just leaving; he was literally a traitor trying to divide the Beggar Gang.
Had He Tiantian not appeared, had "Sect Leader He" not emerged, perhaps their Beggar Gang would have ended up like the "New Beggar Gang."
The world’s largest sect, leading the Martial Arts of Central Plains, would have had a fate of being laughed at by heroes worldwide because of Gongsun He and Zi Yi, such dogs and thieves.
What a great humiliation!
Upon seeing Gongsun He’s true colors, they became even more grateful to Sect Leader He.
So, when He Tiantian indignantly accused Gongsun He of being a traitor of the Beggar Gang, none of the Elders or Squad Leaders objected.
Instead, they felt that "Sect Leader He" was right; their Beggar Gang must completely distance itself from this worthless "New Beggar Gang" and people like Gongsun He!
He Tiantian leaped forward, flicked her sleeve, and blocked Zi Yi’s attack.
She took advantage of the situation to use the Dog Beating Stick to hook the Six-bag Elder out of the fight.
" Gongsun He, you were originally a traitor of our Beggar Gang, deceiving the disciples at the branch to leave with you. Instead of leading them to uphold righteousness and justice, you muddled together with such crooked paths like the Master of Carefree Pavilion!"
"You have tarnished the hundred-year reputation of our Beggar Gang and entrapped innocent disciples; you truly deserve to die!"
He Tiantian ignored Zi Yi, who was nothing but a sycophant to the highest order, caring about nothing but her master.
The real schemer and instigator was Gongsun He, and of course, Wenren Jie was the big boss behind the scenes.
However, now was not the time to expose Wenren Jie.
" He Yutian, you venomous woman, you framed the loyal and deceived the superiors, ruining the Beggar Gang. I, Gongsun He, am ashamed to be associated with you; that’s why I led the brothers away from the Beggar Gang!"
"Though we have left, our hearts are still with the Beggar Gang—"
Before Gongsun He could finish these grandiose words, He Tiantian scoffed.
With her Dog Beating Stick in hand, she pointed at Zi Yi, who was busy groveling to Wenren Jie, and then at the Six-bag Elder whom she had just saved, then she said to the other Beggar Gang Disciples, "Is being with the Beggar Gang about letting the leader serve as a servant to outsiders?"
"Or allowing such a clueless leader to harm our own brothers?"
The facts were right in front of everyone, tough as it was for Gongsun He to whitewash them.
Still that same sentence, if it weren’t for the "cheat" of Sect Leader He, the Beggar Gang disciples would have had no choice but to endure Gongsun He and Zi Yi’s tyranny, continuing to bear the shame and be the joke of the martial world.
But now they had Sect Leader He, and though she was a woman, so was Zi Yi, this unreliable wench.
Yet, she wasn’t even comparable to Sect Leader He.
Not all who followed Gongsun He out of the Beggar Gang were his close confidants; there were also some honest brothers deceived by his sweet words.
Like the Six-bag Elder who just stepped out to denounce Zi Yi, and like more than half of the ordinary disciples in the crowd.
Hearing He Tiantian’s words and then looking at the true·Beggar Gang Disciples standing majestic with the Dog Beating Stick, they truly had mixed feelings.
