Chapter 322: Gathering at the Colosseum

Jing Cangming sat in front of Yunyun's tombstone and refused to get up and leave for a long time.

During the trip, Gong Xinghui and Lu Yuanming also often came to see him.

The two knew that it was not a solution to continue like this. People were constantly leaving the East Continent. If nothing was done, the East Continent would probably be the weakest in the future.

"Brother Jing," Gong Xinghui called out tentatively from behind Jing Cangming.

As expected, Jing Cangming did not reply.

Gong Xinghui looked at Lu Yuanming, and Lu Yuanming shrugged helplessly.

Gong Xinghui frowned, and after a long while, he took a deep breath, "Jing Cangming! Can you cheer up?! How long has it been? The people of the Western Continent are constantly leaving! Don't you care?!"

Gong Xinghui shouted angrily at Jing Cangming's back, while Lu Yuanming was shocked. He did not expect Gong Xinghui to be so excited.

But Gong Xinghui's words seemed to have no effect on Jing Cangming. He sat there like a wooden stake, without any movement.

"Are you just going to let the East Continent go on like this? Are you going to let your master, who was willing to be a bad guy to protect the good East Continent, be destroyed in your hands?!" Gong Xinghui cursed loudly, not giving Jing Cangming any good face.

Jing Cangming, who had been motionless, trembled when he heard Gong Xinghui say the word "Master".

He raised his head suddenly, tears welled up in his eyes, his lips trembling slightly, "Master..."

He slowly turned around and looked at Gong Xinghui and Lu Yuanming with a sad face.

Seeing the effect, the two hurriedly continued to consolidate, "Cang Ming, think about it carefully, Dong Huang passed the throne to you before he left, not for you to ruin it. If Dong Huang comes back one day and sees the dilapidated East Continent, will his heart ache?"

Lu Yuanming said intentionally or unintentionally, "Maybe it will be so painful that you will die and want to die."

Jing Cangming's pupils suddenly expanded, and his eyes became tough, completely devoid of the indecisive look he had just had.

Seeing this, Gong Xinghui and Lu Yuanming smiled at each other. It seemed that it worked.

The two men walked to the left and right of Jing Cangming, one of them held one of his arms, and helped Jing Cangming up from the ground.

Jing Cangming also exerted strength with his legs and stood up. Then he looked around at the two of them, raised his trembling hands and wiped away his tears.

"You are right, I can't go on like this, otherwise, the East Continent will really be destroyed."

The two laughed.

Jing Cangming's eyes were determined. He broke away from the two and stood on the ground. He took two deep breaths and said, "Let's go and see what the East Continent looks like!"

Having said that, Jing Cangming disappeared from the spot and left in an instant.

Gong Xinghui and Lu Yuanming looked at each other and nodded, then disappeared from the spot with two whooshes, following closely behind Jing Cangming.

Jing Cangming appeared on a tall building in the East Continent at this time, watching the people coming and going below.

Gong Xinghui and Lu Yuanming stood behind him on both sides, like two bodyguards.

The population of the East Continent is not as dense as before, and this is "thanks" to those two stupid elders.

Looking at the sparse flow of people, Jing Cangming discovered that many people were walking in groups towards the city gate of the mainland. Once they crossed the city gate, they would enter the wilderness.

Jing Cangming disappeared in front of the two of them with a whoosh, and when he appeared again, he was in front of the group of people who were about to leave.

When Jing Cangming first appeared, these people were obviously shocked for a moment, but it was very short-lived before they recovered their composure.

"So you are Donghuang's disciple. I wonder what you are here for?" said the leading man.

He did not announce to the public that Jing Cangming was now the new East Emperor, and he also announced to the public that the old East Emperor was in seclusion.

However, since Donghuang left, Jing Cangming has not managed the East Continent, resulting in the fact that those who have left the continent now are basically those who participated in the rebellion.

I don’t know whether they chose to leave because they felt guilty or because they were afraid of Donghuang’s punishment.

The group of people in front of him were the ones who participated in the rebellion. Jing Cangming had some impression of them. This force was called Yanyun Pavilion.

The leader of Yanyun Pavilion is the decadent-looking man in front of him.

He looked to be in his forties, and his strength was around level 60. Jing Cangming had seen their fight before in the Colosseum.

However, they were full of vigor and vitality at that time, and the leader was also very arrogant.

But now, with messy hair and empty eyes, he looks like a powerless waste.

Secondly, the same was true for the several people behind him.

The Yanyun Pavilion is not considered strong, but in terms of the number of people, it can be considered a large gang.

At first, their population was at least hundreds, but after the battle, those killed by other forces and foreign believers killed by Jing Cangming scattered, and now only these six people are left.

To be honest, this does seem quite sad.

Jing Cangming asked, "Where are you going?"

The leading man said breathlessly, "Once we leave the East Continent, it will be the same wherever we go, right?"

"Why are you leaving?" Jing Cangming said, staring at the other party with bright eyes.

"Haha, we're tired of fighting after so many years, and we want to change..." The man lowered his head, not daring to look into Jing Cangming's eyes.

Before he could finish, Jing Cangming said sternly, "Raise your head! Look into my eyes and tell me! Why!"

The people around were immediately attracted by Jing Cangming's words. Everyone stopped and stayed to look at both sides.

Some of them were involved in rebel groups and seemed to be preparing to leave.

The man was shocked when he heard the words, and the people from Yanyun Pavilion behind him also showed horrified looks.

They didn't expect that the boy in front of them had such a powerful aura, which was particularly shocking.

The leading man raised his head tremblingly, his eyes still a little evasive.

"Look into my eyes," Jing Cangming said again.

The man slowly focused his gaze on Jing Cangming's neck, then moved his gaze to his face, and finally when he looked into his eyes, he was still a little evasive, but finally he mustered up the courage and looked him in the eye.

"I...we..." While speaking, his eyes kept looking outside, as if Jing Cangming's aura made him dare not look at him.

At this time, Jing Cangming's tone softened a little and said, "Tell me the real reason why you left."

"I...I..." the man's voice trembled a little.

Jing Cangming saw tears in his pupils.

Suddenly the man knelt on his knees, raised his head and shouted to the sky, "I'm sorry to Dong Huang! I feel ashamed of Dong Huang's painstaking efforts! We don't deserve to live in the East Continent..."

After the man finished speaking, he held his head and cried, curling up on the ground.

The people from Yanyun Pavilion behind him also had trembling mouths and shed tears of regret.

One by one, they knelt on the ground, tears kept falling, and then evaporated into gas and rose up.

Jing Cangming looked at them and couldn't help feeling a little touched.

Immediately afterwards, Jing Cangming heard the sound of knees hitting the ground and cries of grief and repentance one after another around him.

He looked around and found that many people were kneeling around him.

These people were all participants in the rebellion, with their hands stained with the blood of their compatriots.

If Master was still in the East Continent, would he feel that the infamy he had to bear was worth it after seeing this scene? Would he not leave?

Jing Cangming looked up at the sky, trying hard not to let his tears fall.

Unfortunately, the master did not see this scene after all.

Jing Cangming choked up and said, "Everyone...gather at the Colosseum."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jing Cangming disappeared from the spot, leaving behind only his lingering breath.

Inside the Colosseum, Jing Cangming tried hard to calm himself. He stood alone in front of Donghuang's exclusive seats, looking at the empty Colosseum below.

Gong Xinghui and Lu Yuanming went door to door to notify everyone and urge them to gather at the Colosseum. Regardless of whether they had participated in the rebellion or not, everyone had to gather.

At this time, Jing Cangming was sitting on the edge of the viewing platform, with his feet hanging naturally in the air and his hands crossed between his legs.

Jing Cangming was still looking at the distant sky, thinking in his heart, Master, how great it would be if you were still here?

After a while, the Colosseum began to become lively.

People came in from the main entrance one after another, and the first to come in was the Yanyun Pavilion.

They didn't know if they had a chance to leave alive this time, and they were in great torment.

Even if Donghuang didn't punish them, the guilt in their hearts would torture them to death.

But after everyone came in, they did not see any trace of Donghuang or anyone else, only Jing Cangming sitting on the viewing platform.

Everyone looked at each other, talking about, "Where is Donghuang?"

Crowds of people poured in. I don’t know who notified them, or whether they were just being conscious, or were divided due to discrimination.

The rebels stood together on the left, while those resisting the rebellion stood on the right.

It is obvious that those people on the right do not seem to have too much burden and pressure.

On the contrary, those people on the left did not dare to raise their heads.

Jing Cangming slowly lowered his head and looked down.

At this time, Gong Xinghui and Lu Yuanming also stood on both sides again, one on the left and one on the right, like two sculptures.

"Are everyone here?" Jing Cangming asked weakly.

Gong Xinghui said, "All here, these are all the current residents of the East Continent."

Jing Cangming glanced around, looked at the crowd below, and sighed.

Originally, the people from the mainland could fill up the Colosseum, but now, there is less than half of it left.

The people below were talking about it. What they were talking about was naturally why Dong Huang didn't come and what Dong Huang's disciples wanted to say by gathering everyone together.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Jing Cangming spoke.

“Why do people want to split up and stand in line?”
