Even though Long Chen was preparing to attack to get through her, after hearing her stupid assumption, he stopped.
He couldn't believe this woman was so stupid. She thought they brought the Dragon Clan here? If that was the case, then she could easily be fooled. Since she was sure that they hadn't killed her people, she wasn't going to find them a threat, which was a perfect situation for him to fool her without fighting. She wasn't a threat to him.
Long Chen stopped midway. "Alright, you caught me. We didn't destroy anything. We are just weak guides who were forced by the Dragon King to escort them here. Since the beginning, we had been trying to free ourselves, but we were unable to. Our life was in his hands. If we had said no, we would've been killed."
"Fortunately, we managed to lose him as we all fell into this Maze of Death. Since then, we had been trying to find a way out when you came across us and attacked us for no reason," he further stated.
