The next step was to shake off the hunchbacked masked men and escape to safety.
And the direction of escape was chosen to be the direction from which the previous wave had come.
If the previous wave was indeed created by Yuan Dongzhi using his abilities,
then heading in the direction the wave had come from would likely lead to an encounter with Yuan Dongzhi.
Lin Zichen guessed.
Although Yuan Dongzhi had lost, he probably hadn't died.
Instead, like Lu Tianrong before, he had been trapped by the enemy using vines.
This guess had a basis.
The basis was that the hunchbacked masked man did not appear to be seriously injured, which meant the battle with Yuan Dongzhi had not been intense.
For fighters of the same level to fight, it would be impossible to kill the opponent without an intense fight.
After all, it was between fighters of the same level, and the gap was unlikely to be so wide that one could kill the other unscathed.
