Half a day later!
On the ground, the Thousand-Handed Centipede slowly landed.
"At last, we've escaped."
Feeling secure, Ning Xinyue patted her chest with lingering fear.
"You just muddled along without making any effort," Su Jie said irritably, flicking Ning Xinyue's forehead.
"I was the one who spotted the Secret Realm Elder in advance. How can you say I didn't contribute?" Ning Xinyue protested, covering her forehead.
"I didn't expect we'd provoke an Elder. Luckily, we had Brother Su and this Poisonous Centipede; otherwise, our escape wouldn't have been so simple," Xiao Fengyuan said. He had also experienced successful escapes from Secret Realm Elders in the past, but this time they had been deeply trapped within the encirclement of a Righteous Sect, and if they were delayed for long, there would have been more than one Elder appearing later.
