"We can't leave like this," said Nash seriously. All of them turned to look at him with confusion intheir eyes.
Nash coughed and continued to explain," What I meant was, we need to make sure the surroundingarea is clear before leaving. Didn't you all say that they would do anything to kill you all to makesure you won’t be able to report on them? Although we’re at the outskirts of the mountain, there’s noguarantee they might not view this place as a key observation zone."
What Nash said was logical. They exchanged glances with each other and all of their expressionswere solemn. They could not drag on any longer but they could not just leave like that either.
Fane knitted his brows and made a decision. "How about this? I’ll go scout the surrounding area toplot out a path of escape and we’ll leave within two hours.” Without waiting for their replies, heturned to leave the cave but was stopped by Dwight.
"I will go instead. I have cultivated a special technique and have a keen sense of perception. If thereare enemies around, I'll find out immediately and will be able to retreat safely. After all, yourcultivation is only in the initial stage of the innate level. Besides, I’m all better now," he said as hestood up. He patted away the grass from his bottom.
Fane nodded. There was no need to fight about this since he had a special technique to scout thesurroundings.
Jed nodded at Dwight too. "Leave Brother
Albion to me. Please be careful out there and come back as soon as you can."
Dwight nodded and left the cave while the four of them waited patiently in the cave. Fane meditatedto rest his body while Nash assisted Jed in taking care of Albion.
The seconds ticked by and Nash became more and more worried. After ten minutes, he could nothold it in any longer and said," He should be back by now. Do you think he ran into some trouble outthere?"
Jed was worried too but compared to Nash, he had more understanding of Dwight's capabilities. Hesighed faintly and in a grave tone said, "Under normal circumstances, Brother Dwight can escapeextremely fast. He's smarter than most of us and would be able to detect anything out of theordinary very quickly so there's no chance for us to escape if he really ran into
any troubles now.
Another ten minutes passed and even Jed’s face was darkening by the seconds. He stood up andstared worriedly at the entrance of the cave. Fane knew exactly how he was feeling but they couldnot do anything apart from waiting.novelbin
Finally, after an hour, they heard noises coming from the outside. Fane's eyes narrowed, and heinstinctively looked at the small defense array in his hand. For the defense array to be effective, twodefense arrays must be used together. One defense array board was placed outside and the otherwould be kept by the user's side.
The defense array board in his hand not only served as an alarm but could also transmit the sceneoutside. A figure swiftly traversed the location with the array's
monitor area. Even though he could not see the person's features, he was relieved to recognize theThousand Leaves Pavilion’s uniform.
Jed quickly went to the entrance to welcome Dwight back. He looked more helter-skelter thanbefore and was covered in leaves and grass. His hair was dirty and he was so pale that he gave offa chilling aura.
