"How many swarms have we hit since we've traveled together?" Han Li slowly asked as he looked at the insect corpses on the ground.
"Seven! Although we've encountered many ant swarms, we haven't encountered any that numbered in the ten thousands." Standing at Han Li's side, Yuan Yao obediently replied.
They'd already traveled together for half a day. Han Li frowned at hearing the number and his expression grew sullen as if he had worries on his mind.
After some thought, he swept his arm towards his Gold Devouring Beetles that had finished consuming the corpses. They followed his command, transforming into a cloud of sparkling light as they flew back into his floating spirit beast pouches. Han Li then calmly put them away.
"What? Fellow Daoist Han appears unhappy? We've already crossed through the center of the desert, the most dangerous area. The path out should prove to be much safer." Yuan Yao blinked upon seeing Han Li's expression and spoke with slight confusion.
