This Time, He Really Panicked! (Received Last-Minute Notice That It Can't Go Premium Today)

Yang Shan grabbed Chao Bafang by the collar, electricity crackling beneath his feet, and shot off with a Thunder Spirit Flash.

Chao Bafang was not particularly fast, only at the normal level of a One-Star Great Fighter.

With Chao Bafang in tow, Yang Shan's Thunder Spirit Flash speed dropped to around 200 points.

Chao Bafang was quite loyal:

"Great God, put me down. You go first!"

Yang Shan said, "Nonsense. Of course I know I have to go first!"

Although the two had worked together to powerfully kill a Purple Word Seal NPC, they had used up all their ultimate moves, and their dou qi consumption was severe.

There were still twenty-three assassins left. If Yang Shan ran while carrying Chao Bafang, neither of them would escape in the end!

Chao Bafang was very conscious of his role as an employee.

Although Yang Shan had already claimed Fei Luo Water Pond, the red-map marker had not been directly removed.

Because other forces might still return later.

If Chao Bafang died here, then according to the system rules, he would lose the experience for one Great Fighter star.

That was 15,000 points! Chao Bafang would not only fall back to Nine Star Dou Shi, but would also have to redo the Heart Demon Trial.
