There was just one hour left before the climactic event, the descent of the four Sun Heroes.
Apart from Lin Xun, there were four others on the Apostle shortlist, and he deeply understood the strategy to first stabilize the inside before dealing with the outside.
If the four hidden Apostles weren't eliminated before the climactic event, these people would become ticking time bombs on the final battleground.

As for the possibility of working together... Lin Xun was the one with the highest kill count, so he might be able to work with several others.

To the brainwashed 'New World' Apostles, the position of disciple was far more valuable than life itself.
