Chapter 980 - 980 Afraid of Distance
980 Afraid of Distance
Xue Fanxin did not care about the people and things in the canteen that had nothing to do with her. She left after eating and drinking her fill.
Zhou Xiaotong and the others naturally left with Xue Fanxin. When they left, it was much smoother and more comfortable than when they came. Not only did the strange gazes decrease greatly, but even the mocking and ridicule were gone. Most of the people in the canteen ate obediently. Even if they were displeased, they did not dare to say anything and could only watch the new disciples leave.
The new disciples this year were really extraordinarily arrogant, especially that little girl.
“Xiaomeng, you’re simply too powerful. You actually made those people in the canteen obediently distribute enough food to us.”
“Xiaomeng, will we offend many senior brothers and sisters by doing this?”
“That’s right! If we offend too many people, it will be very troublesome in the future.”
“So what if it’s troublesome? Could it be that you’re willing to be bullied? This world is about whose fists are stronger. If you don’t resist when you’re bullied, you’ll only be bullied even more.” Zhou Xiaotong was different from the other children. He was not afraid, but faced everything bravely.
Xue Fanxin had been observing Zhou Xiaotong. Because she admired him, she wondered if she could nurture him. Perhaps he could become a powerful assistant to her and Ah Jiu in the future?
Anyway, Ah Jiu had a group of Black Shadow Guards. It was not difficult for Zhou Xiaotong to become a member of the Black Shadow Guards. It just depended on whether Zhou Xiaotong was willing.
“Xiaomeng, don’t be afraid. Even if there’s really trouble, I’ll face it with you.” Seeing that Xue Fanxin had not spoken, Zhou Xiaotong thought that she was nervous and afraid, so he comforted her, looking like he was willing to share her burdens with her.
Xue Fanxin smiled. “Xiaotong, have you ever thought that facing it with me might lead to death?”
Hearing Xue Fanxin’s words, the other children were so frightened that their faces were pale, and their eyes were filled with fear. They even distanced themselves from Xue Fanxin slightly, not daring to rely on her for too long.
They had come to the Flowing Cloud Sect to seek a future, not to die.
An Xiaomeng had poisoned and threatened people. This method must have offended many senior brothers and sisters. Perhaps she would be secretly killed soon.
Although their backgrounds were very lowly and they had never seen much of the world, they all knew that where there were people, there would be struggles. Especially where power and strength were gathered in one place, struggles were even more cruel.
In such a place, if one did not have an identity, background, and strength, once they offended someone, their outcome would be very tragic. It was very likely that they would lose their lives.
If they got too close to An Xiaomeng now, they might be implicated. At that time, their outcome would be very tragic.
Xue Fanxin could tell that the new disciples were nervous and afraid, and she understood their alienation from her. However, she had no intention of blaming them. She only said casually, “I did everything alone today. I’ll take responsibility. If anything happens, just push it to me.”
“Xiaomeng, I’ll bear it with you.” Zhou Xiaotong could also tell that the others were afraid. He could not force others to advance and retreat with An Xiaomeng like him. The only thing he could do was to decide his own path.
“Xiaotong, thank you. I’ll remember your friendship. Let’s go back and rest. Rest well. We might have something to do tomorrow.” Xue Fanxin walked in front and returned to their residence with a group of new disciples.
