Tan Tai Chang Feng was quite cautious in his actions. He sent enough forces to guard the rear, giving Ling Tian no chance to strike from behind. Ling Tian, however, was not in much of a hurry. He believed that as time passed, they would eventually get an opportunity.
Ling Tian stopped Fairy Meng Shang from making a move and kept his Void Breaking Buddha Eye open, watching the situation above. A broad grin spread across his face. "Tsk, tsk. To make sure the plan succeeds and keep us safe, Rou'er lured over even more Fiery Flame Beetles than we imagined. I reckon that even if we don't make a move, Lei Zhan and the others will suffer heavy losses."
"They're only savage beasts at the Quasi Saint Immortal level. They don't amount to much to those people. Didn't you say the savage beast army was useless on the Savage Battlefield?" Fairy Meng Shang muttered. Then her tone changed, and curiosity filled her pretty face. "Ling Tian, if you were in their shoes, how would you command them?"
"I'd break away from the battle and flee as quickly as possible," Ling Tian replied. Seeing Fairy Meng Shang's interest, he continued, "Have Si Kong Xuan and the others hold off the Fiery Flame Beetles for now, while the people in the rear retreat in groups. Once everyone has gotten into formation, have Si Kong Xuan's group pull back too. They can ride the savage beasts that are good at running. Those beetles won't be able to catch up."
"Tsk, tsk, that's a good idea. It would minimize their losses." Fairy Meng Shang was full of praise, then grew puzzled. "Tan Tai Chang Feng and the others have plenty of clever people. They should be able to think of this, so why..."
