587 Black Dragon
Now, the votes were split equally.
In the tent, there was only one person who had not voted. That was Lu Benwei.
“Lu Benwei!” Chu Yan shouted in a low voice.
This was the rare time she called Lu Benwei by his full name. It was a kind of begging and a kind of warning.
Changhe looked at Lu Benwei quietly, his eyes bright. “Brother Lu Benwei, just follow your heart.”
Lu Benwei nodded. Now, if he raised his hand to agree, it would mean that Changhe’s life would forever remain on this Bloody Earth Continent. However, if he objected, how many lives would be left on this land? There would never be the best answer!
“Sigh, this is really difficult.”
Lu Benwei slowly let out a breath of turbid air and sighed.
“Brother Changhe, please believe me. The day we expel the monsters isn’t far away!”
Changhe was stunned for a moment, then he straightened his expression. “Alright, I believe that the day will come.”
Lu Benwei’s words to Changhe were a kind of comfort and a kind of promise. Only in this way could he live up to Changhe’s determination to die!
Then, Lu Benwei raised his hand.
At this moment, the number of people who agreed with Changhe’s plan was passed by one vote!
Chu Yan’s face was extremely gloomy. She stood up and walked out of the tent.

The officers wanted to chase after her, but Chu Tianxiong stopped them.
“Don’t worry about her. Let’s discuss the next plan. What we are about to face is the Black Dragon Clan of the five great imperial families.”
They were still worried about Chu Yan.
Chu Tianxiong narrowed his eyes and said, “It’s okay. I know her. She’s probably squatting under a tree in a daze right now.”
Pausing, Chu Tianxiong looked at Lu Benwei, “Little Lu, you go ahead. We’ll discuss the plan.”
Lu Benwei nodded and immediately left the tent.
“You ran so far, aren’t you afraid of encountering monsters?”
Lu Benwei walked forward quietly and squatted beside Chu Yan.
Chu Yan was speechless. Lu Benwei sighed softly and stood beside Chu Yan in a daze.
It was already late at night, and the night on the Blood Earth Continent was exceptionally quiet.
The camp at the foot of the mountain was brightly lit.
With Lu Benwei’s help, the soldiers of the Furious Dragon Legion finally had a full meal. At this moment, the tense atmosphere in the tent was tinged with joy.
The mountain was dark and quiet. The cold wind blew gently, and the trees behind Lu Benwei swayed.
“Why is it always like this?” Chu Yan suddenly said, “Why can’t we bring everyone back in one piece every time?”
Lu Benwei was stunned. He immediately understood Chu Yan’s thoughts.
It was not that she did not understand how cold and heartless everyone was. Instead, it was hard to accept Changhe’s sacrifice.
Chu Yan grew up with the Furious Dragon Legion. It could be said that the Furious Dragon Legion was her home. Every soldier of the Furious Dragon Legion was her elder.
However, since young, there would always be people sacrificed in every expedition of the Furious Dragon Legion.
When Chu Yan waited for the Furious Dragon Legion to return, she could not see some people.
“Sigh, Yanyan…”
Lu Benwei slowly let out a breath of turbid air, his expression solemn.
“If one day, the person who needs to be sacrificed is me, will you agree?”
“Of course not!” Chu Yan immediately denied it. Her clear eyes widened.
“I hope you will!” Lu Benwei said lightly, “In other words, if you want to sacrifice yourself to fight for a chance of survival for the common people, do you want me to agree to let you go?” Lu Benwei’s expression was solemn, and his deep eyes were bright.
“Of course…”
Chu Yan hesitated. Just like Lu Benwei, if that day really came, she would stand up for him without hesitation. However, if she said that, it would be a bit of a double standard.
“I don’t want that day to come!”
“Officer Changhe’s sacrifice is a tragedy. What we can do isn’t to sing praises for this tragedy, but to prevent the next tragedy from happening!”
Lu Benwei suddenly became ruthless. There was anger burning in his eyes, giving Chu Yan a fright.
“The monsters almost destroyed my home, kidnapped my sister, and caused countless people to die! They are the source of all tragedies. All we can do is work hard and sacrifice our blood to end the era of monsters!”
After saying that, Lu Benwei stood up and extended a hand.

Chu Yan was stunned. This was the first time Lu Benwei had called her name so solemnly.
The night was quiet and cold. There was only a full moon shining high in the sky, illuminating the remnant clouds at the side and sprinkling strands of gentle moonlight.
Chu Yan was still squatting on the ground as if she was kneeling on one knee.
Lu Benwei stood tall and stretched out his hand. It was inexplicably like a marriage proposal scene.
“I’m willing!”
Chu Yan placed her hand on Lu Benwei’s hand.
…
After returning to the tent, everyone had also formulated a plan to attack the Black Dragon Monster King.
Firstly, they needed to know the coordinates of the Black Dragon Clan’s lair.
The territory of the Black Dragon Clan was vast, so they had to know the exact coordinates of the Black Dragon Monster King’s lair.
Then, Guan Lou would set the destination of the teleportation array at the coordinates. Chu Tianxiong would lead all the kings of the Furious Dragon Army!
At the same time, Lu Benwei’s group of people and some level-80 experts were also moving forward.
What they needed to do was not to assist Chu Tianxiong and the others in killing the Black Dragon Monster King, but to stop the enemy from sending reinforcements, especially the experts of the Black Dragon Clan.
Moreover, the remaining soldiers of the Furious Dragon Legion were responsible for stopping the Black Dragon Clan’s subordinates from sending reinforcements.
“Now, here comes the problem. The Black Dragon Clan has many experts in their territory, and there are also many subordinates. It can be said that it’s extremely difficult to find the Black Dragon Monster King’s lair. First of all, we can’t have too many people, and they can’t be very powerful. Otherwise, the aura we emit will alert the monsters, and it might cause a great disturbance.”
The old beggar slapped his thigh. “F*ck,” he said, “After thinking about it, isn’t this person me? I don’t have any level at all. Who else can it be?”
The Furious Dragon Legion was very surprised. They thought that the old man who came with Lu Benwei was a rare expert. Now, he was telling them that this old man did not even have a level.
It was true that the monsters could not see through it, but with the speed of mortals, it was extremely difficult to find the Black Dragon Monster King’s lair in the vast territory.
The old beggar saw everyone’s suspicious faces and immediately put his hands on his hips. “Everyone, I’m not bragging, but I dare to say that everyone here is trash except Commander Chu!”
