Ye Chuqi said, "The smell of blood in the air is getting stronger. If you don't go now, there'll be no point going at all. They'll be dead, and the Demon Beasts in the marsh will be drawn there too. Then you won't save anyone, and you'll get yourselves killed."
Duwak asked one more question. "Do you think we should save them?"
Ye Chuqi nodded. "Yes! They look like they're worth a lot of money!"
Duwak: "..."

Ye Chuqi sounded as though she was joking, but Duwak took her seriously and immediately decided to rescue them.
Duwak took most of their best fighters, along with the potions Barnard thought they might need for various situations. The others hurried the caravan out of the Fog Marsh. Even if they managed to bring those people back, they would need somewhere clean and safe to recover, not another stretch of marsh.
Ye Chuqi also quietly advised them to bring along the dazed adventurer and pretend they had fallen for his story, so his accomplices would let down their guard. She hinted that they should watch for traps and ambushes on the way. After all, their enemies would hardly let them reach the hunting ground without a fight.
