Watching Fang Gan retreat in flustered haste, Qin Fengming showed no particular reaction. He gazed at the dozens of demon beasts in the distance, a solemn look flickering in his eyes.
The blade Fang Gan had unleashed was immensely powerful, but it had only managed to kill several demon beasts. Against the frenzied attacks of dozens of them, his defense had ultimately revealed gaps.
If he had not been so close to the Black Water Sea Region, he would have reached the barrier in an instant.
