Tang Zhen made up his mind and prepared to get rid of the middle-aged cultivator's group first. Only then would he be able to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
The problem was that the middle-aged cultivator's group was not weak. If he rashly made a move, he would likely be injured.
During the day, without the cover of the night, it would be more difficult to move around.
This was especially so after he was almost killed by Tang Zhen. The middle-aged cultivator had already raised his vigilance and was always hiding behind people, unwilling to reveal himself. He was afraid that he would suffer another sneak attack from Tang Zhen.
It was obvious that he had already made up his mind to use others as his human shield. He would definitely not take any risks.
Tang Zhen had no choice when he encountered such a fellow with extremely high vigilance. Although he was very confident in his strength, he did not dare to face the muzzles of a group of people.
