The man who asked that question fell into silence. He's helping that guy? But we just refused him, did we not? So why does he want to help him?

"I shall be going as well. I owe him a favor and a huge one. It is common courtesy to repay a favor," another fighter piped up and left the cave.

They knew that it would have been impossible to get their hands on the Longevity Pond's water if it were not for Jiang Ning. If they did not possess the water, the only fate that awaited them was a slow rot to time and eventual death. However, after taking the water, they had prolonged their lives and gained more power in the process.

Even so, they did not want to take part in a futile fight against an overwhelmingly powerful enemy.

"None of us want to die." Someone sighed. "But living like this isn't really a better way either. We'd just be surviving in an empty shell of our past. This world is no longer the same as we know it. There is no meaning to life if we are to spend it in infinite boredom."

The man shook his head and laughed before going out of the cave.

The other fighters who refused to help calmed down and thought about the whole situation after hearing the man's speech. Eventually, they thought he had a point.
