Chapter 687: Tactical Retrea (1/2)

Bai Xiaofei joyously snapped off all the spikes from the monsters. Once again, his moderate storage ring was filled.

It seems I should get a new one. This is not the first time that I’ve been limited by my storage space.

Bai Xiaofei thought as he touched the ring Revelation had given him. He would keep this one if he could, but he didn’t want to wear a bunch of rings like a crude moneybag, so he would prefer changing a new one unless he found another way.

“Do we keep going further in?” asked Leng Liuying eagerly after they finished cleaning the battlefield. She was currently filled with the desire to explore the Holy Snow Mountain.

However, Bai Xiaofei poured cold water over them to the surprise of the three sisters.

“No, we should go back,” he said.

The triplets stared in disbelief. Did that really just come out of Bai Xiaofei’s mouth?

Blinking her eyes, Leng Liuying touched Bai Xiaofei’s forehead, and then touched her own.

“No fever, so what was that nonsense about? We spent so much time getting here and even went through a battle. Now that we are just a little away from the peak, you want to go back?” For once, Leng Liuying used sense in her speech and earned the approval of her two sisters.

Unfortunately, her opponent was Bai Xiaofei.

“It’s not nonsense. My original plan was just to have a look. I did intend to go in deeper, but you can all see that there’s already something capable of threatening our safety just at the edge. No one knows what else we will come across if we go deeper. On the whole, our preparation is lacking.”

His explanation made the triplets quiet down as they could not refute. Although they were able to dominate the spike monster, they didn’t let the victory get to their head and therefore they could understand his thoughts.

“But we’ve come so far…” Leng Liuying’s stubborn eyes were full of unwillingness as she looked at the mountain peak in the distance.

“Temporary departure is for a better next entry. Don’t worry, the next time we return, we will not retreat even if you want to, and that day will come soon.” Bai Xiaofei gently patted her shoulder with a smile.

“Humph, you little chicken!” Leng Liuying rolled her eyes.

Bai Xiaofei thus gained a new nickname. Leaving him behind caught between laughter and tears, Leng Liuying turned around and headed back toward the direction they had come from.

Having confirmed that they needed to leave, the group sped up and soon disappeared into the valley. Not long after they had left, a ‘messy’ team carefully approached the area where their battle had just taken place.

‘Messy’ was the way they dressed. At first glance, this group of people looked like they were forced together as all kinds of costumes from all over the world could be seen. Looking carefully, however, one would find that this was a top-class team!

“Captain, those monsters were all handled.”

As the group waited nervously, the scout ran back with a report that spread shock among them.
