Thinking that Ling Tian wouldn't abandon them, Shi Meng and the others breathed a sigh of relief. In their minds, joining forces with Ling Tian would undoubtedly make it easier to escape the Extreme Ice Plains. After all, Ling Tian was skilled at escaping, especially when he used various Time Secret Techniques to support them.
