The leader glared at Lu Chen and turned around to leave. He waved his hand and the rest of the group also followed him, walking away from the battlefield together and in order.
Fang Yuan and Geming walked at the back and for the first time, they felt as if they were on the wrong side of the exchange.
Fang Yuan especially turned to look at a certain someone repeatedly before leaving along with the rest. As they parted ways today, he wasn't sure if they would ever meet again.
But clearly, he was the one who was overthinking as the other person was already busily chatting with her friend about something.
"Whatever. At least she will be safe I guess." He muttered and left too.
Everyone silently watched the troops leave. Lu Chen couldn't tell outrightly if anyone indeed regretted their decision, but such a thing was difficult to pinpoint.
Only time can tell the difference between trust and loyalty and blind faith.
