The Sigh of All Gods! The Weight That Broke the Balance!

"For a group of people who abandoned you without hesitation, was everything you gave really worth it?"

The stationmaster laughed, but suddenly fell silent.

He felt somewhat sorrowful as he looked at Zhang Guangmu before him. He even felt a faint sense of kindred spirit.

Setting aside their positions, any intelligent life-form devoted to a certain belief could inspire emotion, even when they committed seemingly foolish acts.

"Turn back from the wrong path, Zhang Guangmu."

The stationmaster said coldly, "Rather than throwing your life away for those so-called partners who aren't worth it, abandon darkness and turn to light. Work and ally yourself with me! Together, we'll be unbeatable!"

That was what he said...

But in truth, the stationmaster was buying time as well.

After all, Zhang Guangmu was currently burning through her lifespan, origin, and soul. Every second he delayed increased his chances of victory by one point.

In reality, the stationmaster knew very well that, judging from the personalities and past conduct of the members of the Tian Guang Culinary Team, they had not abandoned Zhang Guangmu to save their own lives. Instead, they had made the most correct tactical decision.

If Wang Shangqing, Tang Lanshan, and the others had chosen to remain there, that would have been the foolish act of overestimating themselves.

Passion and impulse would only drag Zhang Guangmu down, wasting her stamina and energy.

From this perspective...

The same event, narrated in different ways, could easily lead listeners to reach completely opposite conclusions.

Of course, the "listeners" here could not be beings like Zhang Guangmu.

The stationmaster had never expected her to follow his line of thought.

He was merely offering Zhang Guangmu a way out.

When all was said and done, he and Zhang Guangmu had no fundamental conflict of interest, did they?
