"So... they've joined forces?"
As soon as the words were out, everyone's hearts leapt to their throats.
Gu Sheng sighed but still nodded.
"From their conversation, they seem to have formed an alliance. If there's nothing to fear, in just two hours, we can ascend the fighting platform. As long as we come down alive from the platform and enter South Mountain, they won't be able to do anything."
Looking around, Gu Sheng said, "This truly is a perfect spot. They must have been searching for us all night last night and passed by here without finding us. It seems we've chosen the right place."
Only then did everyone realize that danger had already brushed past them.
"Brother Sheng, let's wait here for another hour."
"Hmm, everyone rest and recover your strength for an hour. We'll show ourselves then."
Everyone nodded and followed his instructions obediently.
