In truth, Xu Jiaqi had done some tricks using her magic and concealed their figures.
This was why even if bandits were there, Xu Jiaqi would be skeptical that they could hear them. Zenith, however, did not know this fact.
By blocking the senses of the bandits, Zenith's senses were also obstructed.
Xu Jiaqi did remember that some people were flocking on their left paths back when they galloped through the forest, but she didn't pay much attention to it since the System didn't signal danger.
As such, the two of them arrived here safe and sound and ended up being grouped with those stinky bandits.
Realizing that this was probably what happened, Xu Jiaqi pursed her lips.
She then leaned towards Zenith and relayed this fact onto him, to which the man widened his eyes and shook his head disapprovingly towards Xu Jiaqi for doing such a thing without telling him first.
