"I suspect a 7th-rank desolate beast has appeared nearby, causing the other beasts to flee," Di Kui said anxiously. "This is very dangerous. We must speed up and get out of here!"
"Aren't there usually 7th-rank desolate beasts in the Mist Sea?"
Di Kui stroked his long beard, looking puzzled. "7th-rank desolate beasts are only common in the Eternal Night Forest, or near it. Logically, we haven't even reached the middle of the Mist Sea yet. A 7th-rank desolate beast couldn't possibly appear here!"
"But we have to prepare for the worst!"
Yu Fei's expression remained calm, but he now knew how to get Di Kui to speed up from now on.
The old man was completely unyielding, having repeatedly refused Yu Fei's requests to pick up the pace.
"Alright, I trust your expertise. I'll follow your lead for the rest of the journey!"
A hint of gratitude showed in Di Kui's expression. As long as Yu Fei didn't cause trouble or make unreasonable demands, his job would be easier.
