After forming a rough guess about Kagome's situation, Li Xia did not rush to return with her to the Demon World on the other side of the well.
He needed to reassess the gap in strength between their side and Naraku's.

Their support lineup had originally centered on Miroku, followed by Li Xia, then Sango.
