Qing Zhu's cultivation level was lower than the Asura's. Coupled with the fact that he had already been here a full day, with his body invaded by the breath of the demon dragon, how could he be faster than the White Asura?
They were about to charge out of the abyss and return to the outside world, but the White Asura was merely a few steps away.
"I can't do it!" said Qing Zhu apologetically. "I cannot bring you both to safety. There's only hope if I bring one of you."
Qing Zhu did not look at anyone as he said this. Qin Xianer's body turned rigid. She looked back at the evil White Asura, tears falling in fear. But at the critical moment, she bravely said, "Put me down."
She did not belong to the Empire of Darkness, but Qing Zhu had brought her along in the escape. He had done all he could.
Qing Zhu was secretly ashamed. To leave a little girl behind, in the face of a crisis, was against his beliefs.
