Ignoring Little Ball's attempts to dissuade him, Qin Shaofeng fell silent for a moment, then made up his mind.
"Dongming, in a moment, you and Li Kai take everyone and leave first. I'll deal with the Devil Race behind us!"
"What?"
Qi Dongming was instantly taken aback. He reflexively objected, "No! If we're dealing with the Devil Race, we'll do it together!"
"That's right! We'll stay and fight together!"
"Exactly! How could we let Senior Brother Qin deal with those Devils alone?"
Although they had no idea how strong the Devil Race behind them was, Zhou Yan's earlier reaction had led them to suspect that they were no ordinary foes. One after another, they insisted that they wouldn't leave him behind.
Their response warmed Qin Shaofeng, but he immediately rejected Qi Dongming and the others' objections.
"No. If I stay by myself, I'm confident I can get away at the last moment. But if I have to take you along, none of us will escape. Besides, if we all stay together, the Devil Race behind us will catch up in no time!"
Qin Shaofeng's words left Qi Dongming and the others silent.
Only now did they finally remember that they had been nothing but a burden to Qin Shaofeng all along.
And just as Qin Shaofeng said, if he were on his own, he could probably have escaped long ago.
"Enough. Stop hesitating and go!"
Seeing that Qi Dongming and the others were still standing there in silence, Qin Shaofeng made the decision for them.
Whoosh!
Saint Yuan Power surged from his body. Half of the Saint Yuan Power within him poured into the Pill Realm, and in the next instant, Qin Shaofeng's domain split in two.
One half held Qin Shaofeng; the other held Qi Dongming and the others.
