Sui Xiong did not argue against Wenner as he knew Wenner was right.
In this world, where gods truly existed, "faith" was extremely important to the humans. Dying for their faith was not uncommon. Rather, it was actually a common sight.
Furthermore, death was not the end. For those who died for their faith, they would be received by the gods into their respective God Kingdom after death. They would then be able to enjoy a long period of luxury. For those who escaped at key moments and betrayed their faith, they would only be able to enter the underworld after they died and would constantly face much danger.
Death was definitely painful, but if "death" was not one's final destination but rather the marker of a new stage of life, it became less scary. For the disciples, especially the serious and resolute, dying for their gods and dying for their faith was completely acceptable.
