Liu Kai started. He had thought Ji Fengyan would be seeking backup herself, he never expected... she would actually send him instead.
Heading back now was naturally the safest option, whereas staying on was the most dangerous.
The originally apprehensive youths lowered their heads in guilt at Ji Fengyan’s decision. They dared not even look at her obviously pallid face.
“I’m not going! My condition is still pretty good, and I can stay back to fight with you guys.” Liu Kai refused.
Ji Fengyan kicked Liu Kai to the ground.
“I am entrusting this task to you precisely because you are still physically able. The others would probably faint halfway there. Honestly, I don’t think you fools could stay on the sword if I didn’t tie you to it.”
Despite being kicked in the chest, Liu Kai didn’t feel pain – instead he felt a tight squeeze.
They had been so arrogant previously, but in the face of danger they had to rely on Ji Fengyan, this tiny young girl, to get them out of it.
They had never felt so useless before.
“While Liu Kai goes for backup, the rest of us cannot sit here waiting to die. Your mounts are all at the edge of the forest so we must head towards that direction and reunite you with your mounts as soon as possible.” Ji Fengyan instructed in all seriousness.
No one dared to say a word. They understood clearly that Ji Fengyan’s decision would bind her own fate to theirs.
Otherwise, she could have easily used her Sword Kinesis Flight to fetch Liu Kai to his mount and let him go seek help from there.
Ji Fengyan also understood clearly that in their current state, these bunch of youths would perish if they encountered even just a dozen level one demons—not to mention about that azure ice giant.
There was no way she could leave them.
Liu Kai was very conflicted, but could only grit his teeth and nod.
Ji Fengyan handed over her sword without any hesitation. True to her earlier words, she tied Liu Kai to the sword and stuck a flying talisman onto the hilt. She then smeared some of her own blood onto the hilt and gave it a gentle push. The sword immediately launched into the sky with Liu Kai bound to it!
In the blink of an eye, the sword disappeared from their line of sight.
Ji Fengyan didn’t relax after sending Liu Kai off. She observed the conditions of the remaining youths with a deepening frown. The forced activation of their World-Termination-Armours had been a huge strain on their energy levels. They could not deactivate it even if they died from exhaustion.
As such, every step taken was a tremendous burden on them.
“Rest quickly. We must be on our way soon.”
Unfortunately, there was not much time left for them to rest.
Heavy hearts weighed down the group of youths. The suppressive atmosphere was also making it hard for them to breathe.
Zhou Bugui strenuously made his way toward Ji Fengyan and sat down.
“Ji Fengyan, you had conjured those humanoid vines, right?” Zhou Bugui suddenly asked. He saw clearly that those humanoid vines had sprouted from those beans.
Zhou Bugui’s question instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
Ji Fengyan nodded.
Zhou Bugui’s eyes flashed.
“Those humanoid vines are so strong and can handle the demons. Why don’t you conjure more of them to escort us to the edge of the forest?”
Zhou Bugui’s words stunned everyone.
Ji Fengyan glanced at Zhou Bugui’s serious expression before giving a cold smile. She raised her wrist with the blood-soaked bandage and waved it before Zhou Bugui’s face.
“How much more blood do you think I can give?”
