87: Upholding the spirit of the Xia Dynasty, vowing to defend cultural relics to the death.

The Production Team's bullet comment appeared pinned at the top of the Live Stream Room, making the audience even more shocked.

For a moment, they felt worried for the celebrities, unsure whether to be happy or sad.

The good news was that they wouldn't be officially labeled as Tomb Robbers, and their careers were still intact.

But the bad news was, they didn't just have to face the dangers of the Tomb, but also the threat of Tomb Robbers?

[Holy crap! I seriously can't even imagine it. Isn't this too terrifying? Not only the dangers of the Tomb, but also the danger of Tomb Robbers?]

[Isn't this ridiculous? Tomb Robbers! Those are people who would target Great Xia's tombs; they might even be carrying weapons. Da Mimi and the others are all defenseless. Isn't that just walking into a death trap?]

[No way, no way, they can't go!!]

[Exactly, they can't go, absolutely cannot go!]

[But the Production Team wants Ye Bai and the others to go in. After all, they need to act first to prevent other forces from getting there first.]

[The Production Team hired Mercenaries, but that takes time. By the time they arrive, if Little Brother Ye Bai can't handle it, won't they just be waiting to die?]

[Pah! Just because the Production Team says go, they have to go? They should at least ask for the opinions of Brother Jing, Reba, and the others!]

The audience felt that the Production Team was truly talking big without any skin in the game; after all, it wasn't them who were taking the risk.

When something happens, they make the guests go forward while they wait behind... how could they even say that out loud?

Meanwhile, the Cameraman inside the Tomb noticed the situation in the Live Stream Room and relayed the words of the Production Team and the Archaeology Academy to everyone.

Before Wu Jing and Yang Mi could speak, Hua Chenyu's voice was the first to ring out in opposition.

"What? Why do we have to go? We aren't even people from the Archaeology Academy. If we end up sacrificing ourselves, then what?"

Hua Chenyu didn't want to go in and risk his life; what was the difference between this and indirect murder?

"Yeah, setting aside the situation in this Tomb, we're no match for those Tomb Robbers either. Not to mention there are these girls here. You haven't forgotten about those three people from Northern Myanmar, have you?"

Zhang Dada didn't want to go in, so he could only use Yang Mi and the others as shields.

Cai Xukun thought of the guns those people were holding, and his face turned pale. Even now, he felt a lingering fear.

Although he didn't speak, his head shook like a rattle, and his whole body radiated resistance.

Huang Zitao also didn't want to go; wasn't this just seeking death?

"Do you think you're safe just waiting here?"

Wu Jing saw that these people were unwilling to go in and couldn't help but sneer.

"If we run into Tomb Robbers here, we'll be waiting for death all the same. Who among you will be able to escape then?"

"What if the Archaeology Academy and the Mercenaries don't make it? Can you guarantee those Tomb-robbing people will arrive later than the authorities?"

Wu Jing's words immediately threw the four of them into silence.

Die if they go in, die if they don't... what a dilemma!

"Furthermore, those are Great Xia's historical relics, they belong to our Great Xia. We can't let those Tomb Robbers take them overseas; they are the proof left behind by our Great Xia's history."

"Are you Great Xia people or not? Do you really want to watch those people take away our Great Xia's things?"

Wu Jing was furious now. He had thought these little fresh meats were just cowardly, but he didn't expect them to lack even the backbone of a Great Xia citizen.

Yang Mi also felt that Wu Jing made sense. Now that the Archaeology Academy had given them special permission, they could move around this place freely without jeopardizing their status.

Then they would go in and take a look. Brother Jing was right; they were Great Xia people, and since they had encountered this, they couldn't let these historical relics be taken away by others.

"Brother Jing, are you going in?"

Yang Mi had already seen Wu Jing's intention and asked again.

"Yeah, I want to go in. Regardless of the outcome, those are Great Xia's relics. If we're truly unfortunate enough to have those Tomb Robbers beat us to it, we can at least record the artifacts, which will make them easier to find in the future."

Wu Jing turned to look at Yang Mi and nodded heavily; he had already prepared for both possibilities.

Even if the relics were truly stolen, they had to record them to at least prevent them from being smuggled through customs.

Yang Mi nodded; she felt the same way.

"Brother Jing, if you want to go in, I'll go with you. I believe Ye Bai will too, right?"

Yang Mi looked at Ye Bai, waiting for his response.

Ye Bai didn't say anything, just nodded.

"If Little Brother Ye Bai goes, I'm going too!" Yang Chaoyue proactively took Ye Bai's arm. "I'll go wherever he goes. Little Brother Ye Bai, you'll protect me, right?"

"I'll go too. If Ye Bai goes, so do I. I also want to do my part for Great Xia!"

Reba hurriedly stated her stance.

"Same here!"

"And me."

Bai Lu and Meng Ziyi also made their stances clear; the main point was that they wanted to go with Ye Bai.

In the Live Stream Room—

[Holy crap! Brother Jing is right. Hearing that made my blood boil; I almost want to crawl through the internet cable and go in there myself.]

[That's my Brother Jing, truly patriotic. Not like those little fresh meats, being so cowardly.]

[Wait! Are you guys crazy? Just because they don't want to go and die, they aren't allowed to say so? How dangerous is it in there? What if they actually die? My Kun Kun is so timid, what if something happens to him from fright?]

[Exactly!! If your idols want to go and die, don't drag ours along. We don't want them to go to their deaths.]

[Fine! Then just wait for the Tomb Robbers to come. You'd better hope the Archaeological Team gets here before the Tomb Robbers, otherwise your idols are going to die anyway!!]

The audience was giving Wu Jing thumbs up, but they felt contempt for Zhang Dada and the others.

Inside the Tomb.

"Since certain people don't want to go in, then let's go ourselves. Let them wait for the Production Team's Mercenaries and the people from the Archaeology Academy."

Meng Ziyi didn't want to bring them along either; they would only cause trouble and talk nonsense.

"Who said that? I didn't say anything. I'll go wherever Brother Jing goes."

Cai Xukun spoke up hurriedly, then looked at everyone with an air of righteousness.

"I think Brother Jing is right. We are all citizens of Great Xia. It's only right that we contribute to Great Xia. After all, being a celebrity is just a profession; we are still people of Great Xia."

Cai Xukun spoke, also giving a wink to Zhang Dada and Hua Chenyu.

The three of them immediately realized what he meant.

"Right, right, right. I was wrong before. Brother Jing is right!"

"I also think Brother Jing makes sense. After all, we're all Great Xia people and we came here together, so of course we should leave together. Sharing both the joys and the hardships, right?"

"Mm-hmm, I'll listen to you, Brother Jing."

Zhang Dada, Hua Chenyu, and Huang Zitao all nodded repeatedly. After all, they weren't safe here either, and they were worried about running into Tomb Robbers.

They might even be shot and killed then.

Seeing the expressions of the four, the looks in the eyes of Wu Jing, Yang Mi, and the others changed.
