Seeing that it not only could not win but had been wounded instead, the ninth-tier golden ape began to consider retreating.
After swinging the Ruyi Vajra Staff to knock away the Heaven-Flipping Sea-Splitting Halberd hurtling toward it, it turned into a streak of golden light and shot into the distance.
Seeing that the ninth-tier golden ape had fled, Liu Changxu considered it for a moment, then abandoned the idea of pursuing it.
