Chu Mi panted heavily, turning into a semi-transparent figure and flying swiftly through the air, dodging the relentless barrage of spell attacks from behind.
The moment the Sea Clan's army encircled the island, he had thought of escaping, but he also knew in his heart that escape was improbable.
The reason Ding Jingshan had Jiang Wang break through in such a secretive manner was to keep it hidden from others, to avoid affecting their morale.
Knowing there was more to the situation, he had secretly followed, using Jiang Wang, whom he believed to be an extraordinary figure, as his ticket to hitch a ride and escape from the Floating Island together.
After Fu Yanqing pulled him out, he had to abandon his pride to beg for his life.
He was very aware that Jiang Wang's breakout, during the heat of the battle, had to be kept strictly confidential. Thus, he had to either face military justice or prove his worth to live.
