Of course, when some reinforced concrete was kicked, one could clutch one's foot and flee.

But when some reinforced concrete was kicked, even if one wanted to clutch one's foot and flee, one could only force a smile and silently clash with that piece of reinforced concrete to the bitter end, because reality did not allow otherwise.

Maha You was naturally the latter.

And the reason he and Xiao Xiao's group chose to fight to the death was also very simple.

Yan Di had defeated the Maha Ancestor!

That was right—such an absurd reason!

On the surface, this absurd reason had nothing whatsoever to do with fighting Xiao Xiao's group to the death. Stubborn words were one thing, refusal to admit it was another, and saying he had been driven back certainly sounded better than saying he had been defeated. Maha You knew perfectly well what had happened. But what did that have to do with Xiao Xiao's group? Xiao Xiao had not been the one to defeat the Maha Ancestor.

However, viewed from another angle, the matter became different.

Yan Di defeating the Maha Ancestor meant Yan Di had humiliated the Maha Ancestor. And the Maha Ancestor was the Maha Ancient Clan's Saint Grade Heavenly Sovereign, a peerless expert who had fought the Immortal Emperor in the past, fully qualified to represent the entire Maha Ancient Clan. Following that logic, Yan Di's actions became a refusal to show respect to the Maha Ancient Clan. Taking it another step further, it became a matter of the Endless Fire Territory deliberately opposing the Maha Ancient Clan.

Wasn't that utterly ridiculous logic?

Yet for Maha You—or rather, for the younger generation of the Maha Ancient Clan, all steeped in the glory of the past—this was instead the most natural way of thinking!
