As Shen Bing read the mission description, he felt as though ten thousand mythical beasts were stampeding through his mind.
What the hell was this?
An escort mission? Seriously?
Damn, did the Third Prince need him as an escort? Hadn't they gotten this backward?
But after studying the mission description carefully, Shen Bing began to understand.
He was going to have to play nanny all the way to the end.
Not only did he have to help the Third Prince pass through the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Formation, he also had to take him adventuring in the Demon Realm, then bring him safely back.
The Third Prince was an official god of the Immortal Realm. Once he reached the Demon Realm, he would turn into a weakling in an instant, so requiring Shen Bing to escort him did make sense.
But this was probably going to get him killed! He had only just taken Erlang Shen through the Zhou Tian Star-Dipper Formation last time. The Demon Realm was probably on high alert now.
Wouldn't charging in at a time like this be asking to die?
