The air seemed to freeze instantly.
Though Dylan's slightly mocking mutter had been as soft as a mosquito's buzz,
everyone present was a Star Tier powerhouse. How could they possibly not hear it?
Yan Ji, with her fiery temperament, was the first to lose her patience. Her beautiful eyes widened abruptly.
Her long hair stirred without wind, and the temperature around her surged as she snorted coldly, "We can accept missions however we want. Who are you to point fingers at us?!"
"Yan Ji, don't be hasty.

As he spoke, he suddenly turned around and barked at Dylan, "Why aren't you apologizing yet?!"
Dylan clearly had not expected Yan Ji and the others to react so strongly.

"I'm sorry. I spoke without thinking just now and offended you all..."

"Not sincere enough."
Xu Jingming, who had remained silent all this time, finally spoke in an indifferent tone.
"How about this? Don't let Dylan participate in the upcoming mission."
He disliked incompetent teammates, and he disliked internal conflict
