The right-hand elder of the Heavenly Spirit Sect wasn't the only person whose eyes had nearly popped out of his head. In fact… when Wang Baole had pulled out two hundred Dharmic Battleships and blown them up, the first legion of the Divine Sovereign Justice Sect and the disciples of the Violet Gold New Dao Sect had all been struck dumb. The latter, especially, had been moved beyond tears.
If they had been the ones mounting the rescue effort, they would have placed the preservation of their own lives as the top priority. They wouldn't have risked their lives to rescue others. They wouldn't have blown up their precious Dharmic Battleships either.
