"What he did was worse than what you did. At least you robbed people openly. What was this called?"
"It's called ingratitude—crossing the river and demolishing the bridge!"
"Yeah, betraying his benefactor—he has no sense of gratitude at all!"
The pirates were furious as well.
After several rebirths, Pirate Captain had changed for the better quite a bit.
"Yeah, we know better than to steal someone else's foundation. If you want to take it, you have to earn it with your own abilities!"
"That Ye Lingxiao is utterly shameless. He relied on others to build himself up, then turned around and stole their foundation!"
Everyone cursed him in a chorus.
At that moment.
Wenren Sheng watched.
Naturally, his attention was not on the change in some insignificant faction.
What he saw was the increasing complexity of a Child of Destiny.
From his initial innocence and resolve, he had gradually been assimilated by the world and misled by those around him.
He had been dragged into the mud.
Even if he could remain clearheaded, he could not change everyone's will.
They wanted to divide the fruits of victory and become founding heroes.
They did not want to remain under Little Illusion's contract as ordinary employees, able to receive only commissions.
Without even a single share.
He had personally watched someone who had once seemed like a gentleman gradually transform into a hypocrite.
Though perhaps that was not quite right.
After all, it was hard to say what the man's true nature had been.
It still depended on what he actually did.
If he continued serving the people and striving to establish a stable order, then no matter what he did, it could be said that his original intention had not changed.
He was still doing it to save the common people.
