Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

As soon as Hu Jia saw Xun'er, his eyes lit up instantly and he rushed towards her excitedly.

These days she was busy avoiding the people who admired the strong and the people who feared the strong, and had no time to look for Xun'er. This also caused a serious lack of Xun'er's energy in her body. As soon as she saw Xun'er, it was as if her instincts were awakened.

Xun'er also reacted immediately. She quickly reached out and pressed her face against her to keep a safe distance from herself. Looking at Hu Jia's obviously very beautiful face, but now with a lustful look like a gangster and drooling at her mouth, Xun'er couldn't help feeling sick.

Although she wanted to say something, Xun'er knew that it was useless to say anything to Hu Jia. After pushing Hu Jia away, she ignored her and looked at Xiao Yan helplessly.

"Brother Xiao Yan, you really took on a troublesome matter."

"That can't be helped. Sister Xiao Yu really can't spare any time. I'll help if I can."

Xiao Yan smiled bitterly. Xiao Mei had a bitter face and lowered her head to stand in front of Xiao Yan, her face full of guilt.

"Brother Xiao Yan, I'm sorry for causing you and Sister Xiao Yu so much trouble."

"Don't blame yourself. This is not your subjective intention. No one thought that your filming would lead to such a thing." Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and gently ruffled Xiao Mei's hair. "Okay, don't think too much. You are just doing what you like. You didn't intend to hurt others. Even if you are the main cause, the biggest problem is still the two factions that caused the dispute."

Xiao Yan was afraid that Xiao Mei would not dare to film a movie in the future because of this incident. This was something Xiao Mei had finally found that she wanted to do. It would be too pitiful if she didn't dare to do it again because of this incident.

Although it is true that Xiao Mei was the cause of the emergence of the strong-admiring and strong-fearing factions, it would be unreasonable to put all the blame for this dispute on her. Who could have expected that a drama could cause such a big dispute.

"If you want to film in the future, just continue filming. Don't let this incident affect you, and don't take all the blame on yourself."

Xiao Yan chuckled and reached out to pinch Xiao Mei's cheek. Xiao Mei nodded with slightly red eyes, deep attachment revealed in her eyes.

Xiao Yan has been like this since he was a child. If you do something wrong, he will personally take you to admit your mistake together, but as long as it is not your fault, he will never let you bear the grievances that do not belong to you.

Hu Jia also stood up, put his hands on his hips and supported Xiao Mei.

"That's right. What does it have to do with you? Those two groups of people are just crazy!"

Hu Jia has been annoyed by both those who admire and fear the strong these days, and her image has also suffered a lot because of her role as Xiao Ling.

Even so, she never blamed Xiao Mei in her heart. She was the one who agreed to film the movie, and Xiao Mei did not force her to act. She could only say that she had encountered these troubles because she had not considered them in advance. Hu Jia would feel ashamed if she blamed Xiao Mei.

Back to the topic, Wu Hao crossed his arms and grinned.

"How about calling these two groups out and beating them until they disperse?"

"It's useless. Just look at the situation in the hospital. It would be much easier if force could solve this problem."

Xiao Yan rubbed his brows with a headache. Using force against the faction that admired the strong would only make them admire the strong more, and using force against the faction that feared the strong would only make them fear the strong more. This matter was ultimately a conflict of cognition. Using force against them would not only make the two sides disperse, but the conflict would only become more serious.

"Come to think of it, I originally thought that based on Brother Xiao Yan's personality, you would definitely join the faction that fears the strong."

Xun'er said with a smile, but as soon as she finished speaking, she saw Xiao Yan's expression, which had been so harmonious just now, suddenly turned ugly, with sadness appearing in his eyes. He lowered his head and smiled bitterly.

"If it was before, I would definitely support the faction that fears the strong."

If Xiao Yan had not been to the Black Horn Region and had not experienced what happened to those children, he would definitely support the ideas of the Fear of the Strong faction 100%. The perception of the Fear of the Strong faction coincided exactly with his own past self, and they both believed that a person's life was not just about becoming stronger.

However, after experiencing that, Xiao Yan realized from the bottom of his heart that the ideas of the Mu Qiang Sect were not wrong.

Your life is about to end, yet you are still thinking about life. Are you out of your mind?

In fact, when Xiao Yan was helping Xiao Yu resolve the dispute between the Admiring the Strong faction and the Fearing the Strong faction in the past two days, he had heard the debate between the two sides more than once.

It is difficult to tell right from wrong in debates and cognition; it all depends on the positions of both parties.

As long as you stand on your own point of view, you will see that the other party is always wrong.

However, over the past few days, Xiao Yan had been thinking hard, but he couldn't find where he stood now, and he was even more confused about his own righteous path.

Xiao Yan agreed to help Xiao Yu solve this matter, not only to help Xiao Yu share the burden, but also for his own path forward. He hoped that he could figure this matter out while solving it and find his own direction to move forward.

Seeing Xiao Yan's sad expression, Xun'er's face darkened. She immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing. Her heart was filled with guilt, and she secretly hated herself for being immature.

The smart girl immediately understood that Xiao Yan was thinking about the Black Horn Region because of her words.

Even though Xun'er was not present at the scene of the incident in the Black Horn Region, she could feel how desperate Xiao Yan was just by listening to Ling Ying's narration.

Yao Chen in the ring felt Xiao Yan's depression and couldn't help but feel pity for him.

Xiao Yan said that he understood and that the children's death was not his fault, but he still could not forgive himself. He just felt that he should have anticipated that result earlier. He was definitely responsible for the death of those children.

Contrary to his previous remarks in which he advised Xiao Mei not to take the blame on herself, Xiao Yan has always been quite tolerant of the words and deeds of others, but extremely strict with himself.

This is also a kind of alternative double standard.

Xiao Yan's sense of responsibility is so heavy that he will always remember the mistakes that he should not bear.

Having a strong sense of responsibility is a good thing, but everything will eventually turn into the opposite. Having too strong a sense of responsibility is definitely not a good thing. If Xiao Yan has not learned to forgive himself, he will be driven crazy by himself sooner or later.

Just then, a member of the law enforcement team ran over and spoke to Wu Hao in panic.

"Deputy Captain! We've run into the strong-admiring and strong-fearing groups over there again!"

Upon hearing this, Wu Hao did not respond immediately, but instead turned an inquiring look at Xiao Yan.

He obeyed the captain Xiao Yu's words 100%. Xiao Yu made it very clear that he wanted him to help Xiao Yan. In this case, the decision on what to do should be made by Xiao Yan.

Xiao Yan was silent for a while, then said to Wu Hao.

"It seems like we won't get any results if we continue discussing this. Let's go take a look first. At least we can get the situation under control first."

"it is good."

Then Xiao Yan took Wu Hao, Hu Jia, and the Xiao brothers and sisters, and a group of people followed the law enforcement team member to the scene of the incident.

A few minutes later, everyone arrived at the site of the dispute, where a dozen people from both the admiring the strong faction and the fearing the strong faction had already started a fierce fight.

"Why did they start fighting so soon?"

Wu Hao was stunned. When the team member came to report just now, he only said that they met. How come they had started fighting in just a few minutes?

"That's why I told Sister Xiao Yu to resolve this matter as soon as possible."

Xiao Yan held his forehead with his hand as he felt a headache. Wu Hao had basically been processing documents in the office with Xiao Yu these past two days, so he was not very familiar with the situation on the scene. However, Xiao Yan, who had helped the Xiao brothers and sisters to stop countless disputes in the past two days, knew the situation very well.

At first, when the two sides that admire the strong and fear the strong meet, there will at least be some debate, and only when one side takes action will a big fight break out.

However, as more and more casualties appeared on both factions, their attitudes towards the other faction became more and more radical, to the point where they no longer argued at all. Once they met, they simply skipped the debate and started fighting without saying a word. If they continued like this, they probably wouldn't even be able to have peace during classes and breaks, and the entire Foreign Affairs College would be involved in the conflict with these two gangs.

"Looking at this, it seems like we can't stop them just by talking." Xiao Yan sighed, then his face turned serious, and he whispered to the others, "Everyone, hold down these two gangs first."

"Roger that!"

Everyone responded loudly. With Xiao Yan taking the lead, they, representing the third party, turned into black shadows and rushed into the fight. It didn't take much effort to forcibly hold down the two parties who had just been fighting fiercely. The students around them couldn't help but smack their lips.

The Xiao family members were all top students in the academy, and Wu Hao and Hu Jia were no exception, so it was easy for them to suppress this group of people.

With the fighting power of this group of Xiao family members, it should be easy for them to enter the inner courtyard, right?

The students around him were thinking this, and Xiao Yan also took a quick look, then heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, there were no injured people who needed hospitalization.

Xiao Yixian is already very busy now. If she sends more injured patients to the medical center, she might really eat herself.

Xiao Yan looked at the two people who were pinned down in front of him. They were Qiu Feng, the leader of the Admiring the Strong faction, and Ye Nuan, the leader of the Fearing the Strong faction. Many of the previous disputes were initiated by these two people.

Xiao Yan also tried to talk to the two of them many times, but because their positions were extremely firm and Xiao Yan's position was extremely unsteady, his persuasion efforts failed in the end, and Xiao Yan himself became more and more confused.

"Xiao Yan! It's you again!"

Qiu Feng glared at Xiao Yan fiercely, and Ye Nuan's eyes were also filled with hostility when she looked at Xiao Yan.

The two of them were already familiar with Xiao Yan. In the past two days, every time they felt that they were going to win against the other party, Xiao Yan would step out to disrupt the situation and force them to end in a draw.

"How do you want to persuade us today?" Ye Nuan asked coldly, with determination in her eyes. "Let me make it clear in advance that no matter what you say, I will never change my opinion."

Xiao Yan did not reply, but just looked at the two of them quietly. After a long time, he sighed softly, waved his hand lightly to signal to let the two go, and continued speaking to the two who stood up.

"The trouble you guys have caused is getting bigger and bigger. Sister Xiao Yu and the medical center are having a headache. Although we can argue, can you please try not to take action in the future?"

To be honest, neither Xiao Yu nor Xiao Yixian really cared about the debate between the admiring the strong faction and the fearing the strong faction. As long as it did not disturb other students, they would not bother to care about the two groups even if they quarreled.

But the problem was that these two groups of people would always start fighting after arguing, causing Xiao Yu to write reports every day, and Xiao Yixian was so busy that she didn't even have time to eat. Some innocent students were also implicated, so this had to be dealt with.

"Humph! Isn't it because those cowardly people couldn't convince us that they took action? We were just acting in self-defense."

Qiu Feng said with his arms folded, and Ye Nuan was immediately unwilling.

"Stop confusing right and wrong! It was obviously you, the Mu Qiang faction, who were the first to attack us because you couldn't convince us!"

"It's obviously you guys!"

"It's you!"

Seeing Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan quarreling face to face again, with signs of them continuing to fight, Xiao Yan quickly waved his hand to stop them, then scratched his hair in annoyance.

It seems that these two people must be dealt with today, otherwise with this momentum, the entire outer courtyard students will be involved.

Xiao Yan looked at Qiu Feng, then at Ye Nuan, his mind full of thoughts.

At this time, Yao Chen in the ring gave advice.

(Xiao Yanzi, why don't you take this opportunity to stop arguing with them and listen to what they say?)

(.good.)

Xiao Yan responded in his heart, and then spoke to the two of them.

"How about this? Let's not talk about reconciliation today. In fact, I have thought about joining one of your factions before."

Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan were both stunned, and then both of them revealed fanatical desire in their eyes.

Although Xiao Yan had only been in the academy for a short time, he already possessed the strength of a one-star Dou Ling in his first year, and was able to make the Xiao family, who were called monsters, obey his orders. His strength and prestige were obvious to all. If he could win over his own faction, it would be a huge support!

The two of them had tried to win over Xiao Yan before, but Xiao Yan had always been the type who didn't want to get involved with any faction. Now that he has made it clear, how could Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan not be tempted?

"Really?"

Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan showed interest in their eyes and asked for confirmation. Xiao Yan nodded solemnly.

"Really, I will never break my promise."

After saying that, Xiao Yan took out a notebook and a pen, sat cross-legged on the ground under the puzzled gazes of Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan, and spoke softly.

"You can use words to win me over here today. As long as one of you can impress me, I will join his faction for an unlimited time."

"Okay! This is what you said!"

Qiu Feng immediately became excited and sat down cross-legged. Ye Nuan next to him was not to be outdone and sat down soon after. The situation on the scene instantly changed.

Originally, it was Xiao Yan who persuaded the two to stop causing trouble, but now the situation was reversed, with Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan using words to persuade Xiao Yan to join their faction.

There is no doubt that this persuasion must have taken a long time.

Chapter 398 It’s all fake

Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan expressed all their opinions to Xiao Yan, and argued endlessly about each other's remarks, which made Xun'er and others who were watching couldn't help but frown.

In order to win over Xiao Yan, the two of them actually sat there arguing for nearly an hour, and those who were watching were so thirsty that they started to drink.

Xiao Yan did not say a word from beginning to end. He just listened silently from beginning to end. The notebook in his hand was filled with several pages of notes, all of which were the debate between Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan.

Finally, Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan also felt their mouths dry and they stopped arguing at the same time and turned their eyes to Xiao Yan.

"Xiao Yan, have you made a decision in your mind?"

Xiao Yan frowned slightly, and after a long time he slowly closed his notebook, closed his eyes and pondered quietly.

Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan knew that Xiao Yan was about to make a decision. They looked anxious but forced themselves to suppress it. Their hearts were beating fast, and they prayed that Xiao Yan would choose their faction.

If Xiao Yan chose the other faction, not only would the other faction gain an additional powerful supporter, but the morale of his own faction would also drop significantly, and the originally balanced forces between the two sides might be tilted as a result.

Time passed by minute by minute.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yan slowly opened his eyes and spoke slowly under the hopeful gazes of Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan.

"It's incredible."

"Eh?"

Xiao Yan's words stunned Qiu Feng and Ye Nuan. Then Xiao Yan looked at them and asked softly.

"Excuse me, are all these insights of yours your own?"

"No, it's not just me." Qiu Feng was the first to come back to his senses. He pressed his neck and replied, "When I discuss with the members of our Mu Qiang faction on weekdays, I always remember the reasons why they support Mu Qiang. I can't think of so many things by myself."

"It's the same for me. Many of the comments I just made are the views of our members who fear the strong. Some of their views are the same as mine, while others are different. But I undoubtedly deeply agree with them all."

Ye Nuan also spread out one hand and said this quite honestly.

“Oh, is that so?”
