Ling Xiaolong was following them in order to be sure that this caravan was not a trap to catch him. There was no other purpose.
So, he honestly replied, "I was afraid that you guys might be my enemies, so I did not dare to immediately approach. I quietly observed you for two hours and approached only when I was sure that you all were not my enemies. So I hope you can take me with you to the next city."
In fact, Ling Xiaolong could simply teleport again to go to the next city. It is just that he has no idea about the location of the next city and how far it is.
Even when he released his Divine Sense to cover an extremely huge area, all he could sense was forest and mountains. There was no sign of a city.
Ling Xiaolong stopped for a few seconds and then continued: "If you don't want to, I will not disturb you. I'll just follow behind the caravan until I reach the next city.
