The Destiny Army members who learned of this were even more dumbfounded.
Upon hearing Huan Sheng's words, Annihilation's heart twisted like a knife, yet she did not feel the slightest guilt.
"Report me?" she said excitedly. "I, Annihilation, stand straight and fear no crooked shadow. The clan elders will certainly give me justice!"
"Fine, just wait!" After saying that, Huan Sheng looked coldly at Li Tianming. "I want to withdraw from the Destiny Army. Open the door for me immediately!"
Li Tianming smiled. "According to military law, withdrawing during wartime counts as desertion."
Huan Sheng sneered. "Didn't you promise that we could return to the Heavenly Emperor Sect and become Lesser Emperors? Isn't this going back on your word?"
"Don't twist the concepts. What I said before was that we would periodically reorganize the ranks, not that you could flee on the eve of battle during wartime. If people could withdraw at will during war, then whenever even the slightest crisis struck, they would scatter like birds before disaster. How would we carry out the Imperial Heaven Plan then?" Li Tianming said coldly.
"You!"
Huan Sheng's face darkened, his resentment towering to the heavens!
The atmosphere froze once more, and the silence was so complete that even a crow's caw could have been heard.
There were still some Heavenly Emperor Sect disciples standing beside Huan Sheng—around a hundred of them. Clearly, they wanted to leave as well.
"Commander."
Wei Wuji had been silently observing everything. Before this, she had mainly handled clerical work.
Faced with this scene, she could no longer stomach it.
At that moment, she suddenly spoke beside Li Tianming. "I think keeping these people would only bring trouble. But don't misunderstand me—I am not pleading for them. In fact, I find such vile conduct even more contemptible.
