Feeling the chill from the sword, Abraham was terrified.
He kowtowed crazily while wailing and begging for mercy.
“No, no, please don’t kill me!”
At this moment, Abraham was like a pathetic reptile.
But Feng Buhuo did not have the slightest bit of sympathy for him.
For such a ruthless, treacherous and vicious person, it was a sin to be soft-hearted.
That was because they did not know how to reflect on their actions.
Their begging for mercy was only a temporary compromise due to their lives being threatened.
Moreover, if they let him go, how would they provide closure to the dead survivors?
Hence, Feng Buhuo’s did not hesitate at all.
His goal was very clear. He wanted to kill Abraham.
However, just as his sword was about to stab Abraham, Leng Hanyan suddenly stopped him.
“Buhuo, wait!”
Feng Buhuo frowned, but the sword in his hand stopped.
He turned to look at her. “Hanyan, what are you doing?”
The remaining survivors also looked at Leng Hanyan in confusion.
They also wished for Abraham to die, but now Leng Hanyan stopped Feng Buhuo.
Leng Hanyan slowly said, “Abraham is indeed unforgivable and his crimes cannot be pardoned. I hate him to the core just like everyone else, so please rest assured that I will not protect him.”
“Then what are you doing?” Little Fatty scratched his head and asked.
“I think that since he has surrendered, we should bring him back to the base.”
“First, we can expose his crimes in public and let the people of the base publicly judge him. After all, the ones who died were our companions.”
“Secondly, we can also warn the other people of the base so that they won’t be like Abraham who was blinded by desire.”
“Thirdly, Abraham was captured by Buhuo. Buhuo once again saved our lives. I believe that the other people in the base shouldn’t have any objections to Buhuo being the next leader.”
Everyone was enlightened by her words.
Indeed, they could deal with Abraham directly and kill him on the spot now.
But the other people in the base could only understand what had happened merely through their reports.
If Abraham personally acknowledged his crimes in front of the people at the base, this will have a bigger impact.
Moreover, there were many elders with higher prestige in the base
If Buhuo could be recognised by them through this incident, then he would become the next leader!
After a moment of silence, Little Fatty was the first to speak. “I agree with Hanyan. What she said made sense. We should let Abraham go on public trial before killing him!”
“I agree as well. If that’s the case, they won’t be able to doubt Buhuo’s capability to become the next leader.”
Leng Hanyan nodded lightly. “That’s right. Buhuo is worthy of being the next successor.”
“So we must bring Abraham back and let him be judged by the others.”
Abraham knelt on the ground, not daring to get up.
Thinking back to not long ago, he was the leader of the search team.
And before that, he was still the second-in-command in the base.
He could decide the life and death of many people.
He didn’t even need to make the move himself. He only needed to say the word.
Naturally, there would be many lackeys to help him settle the matter.
But now, everything had been reversed.
He was like a criminal on the death penalty.
And the survivors were the adjudicators. Of course, the final decision lies in the hands of Feng Buhuo.
He was surrounded and worshipped by everyone.
As long as he said something, he could decide his life and death.
However, he could only be on the ground and didn’t even dare to say a word.
