In order to avoid getting discovered by the Pyro Company, the path the Great Hoodwinker pointed out was the most remote and difficult to take. Initially, there were even some people in the group who criticized the Great Hoodwinker unhappily, "Are you sure you've been to the periphery of the Sacred Mountains before? Why do I get the feeling you don't know the way?"
However, the Great Hoodwinker sneered, "In that case, let me leave. I'm only in charge of bringing y'all to the periphery of the Sacred Mountains. Does it matter which route I take? Besides, this route that I chose is the safest. You're all highly skilled, and some of you are even supernatural beings. If we encounter the Pyro Company, y'all can just run away. But where am I supposed to run to? I don't want us encountering them."
