However, Lord Tree Ancestor had now spoken in a fit of thunderous rage. Even if their chances of winning were slim, they still had to go. Even if it meant flying straight into a fire, he had to do it.
Otherwise, if Lord Tree Ancestor lost faith in them and took his anger out on them, it would take no time at all for him to take their lives.
Tang Pan slowly regained some composure and got his fear under control. He cleared his throat and motioned for his subordinates to come inside.
The men hurried into the room. Seeing Tang Pan's unusual expression, they couldn't help asking what was wrong.
Tang Pan waved a hand. "Lord Tree Ancestor has given the order. We have to go find Meng Shuanglin."
"Brother Tang, if we take the initiative and go to Meng Shuanglin, that old bastard will probably give us attitude and make snide remarks. He's not a decent man."
Tang Pan shook his head. "Now isn't the time to worry about that. Even if Meng Shuanglin grew horns on his head, he wouldn't dare stir up trouble with us now. He wouldn't dare disobey Lord Tree Ancestor."
"If Lord Tree Ancestor gave the order, why isn't Meng Shuanglin coming to us?" Someone was still unhappy. Going to Meng Shuanglin like this felt like they were begging him, and it would be a terrible blow to their pride.
"That doesn't matter anymore. Gather everyone. Anyone in Star City who can be reached must come. No one is to be absent or make excuses. Anyone who does will be treated as a traitor!"
"Brother Tang, is it really necessary to go that far? Won't it upset the others? A lot of them have been working for days and are resting right now."
