They had barely fled a few miles when five dark figures came flying toward them, covered in dust and looking utterly bedraggled.
A closer look revealed none other than Zhang Xuanhe and his four companions.
One of them saw Chun Xiaobai coming back and immediately asked in confusion, "Great King, why did you come back? Hurry up and run!"
