Ma Lin felt he couldn't return to Gem City within a day because the journey was far, and he dared not fly at full speed.
Despite reaching out through "The Book of the Priesthood," there was still no response from the egg.
The Mei Hua number seven could possibly catch up within the day and night.
This assassin's strength was extraordinary, and Ma Lin didn't dare to call his friends to pick him up.
The few deities with combat capabilities were all very busy, like the Spider Goddess and the God of Flames; one on their own might not be a match for Mei Hua seven, but for both to come would be making too much of a fuss.
Ma Lin could only rely on himself.
He and Su Lanji flew south first and then turned north, intending to avoid those malevolent gods blocking the road.
Last night, he saw two balls of flame flying by in the distance, and he believed they were deities from Nine Heavens City coming to hunt him and Su Lanji, searching for them.
