As for Cui Jian, Shi Feng didn't pay any attention to him, not wishing to waste time on him, especially since his own appearance had allowed him to escape disaster. He had also saved his life from Wang the Fifth's huge blade; this was already a huge favor granted to him.
He didn't know this man well, and what became of him, alive or dead, was no longer his concern. When he had stepped forward to become the Flower Protector for the woman he desired, he should have foreseen all the consequences and accepted them.
Then, under Cui Jian's pleading gaze, Shi Feng, like Princess Zi Yun, left him behind and walked away.
"Brother… brother…" Cui Jian called out, but Shi Feng still didn't pay him the slightest attention. His figure gradually became obscured by a blood-colored large tree, then slowly disappeared from his sight.
