Unwilling, Yi Hucheng

Yi Huocheng's departure at the moment was only for further consideration, but they didn't have any way to deal with the situation right now.

Unless they pursued the Blaze Mercenary Group all the way to their stronghold, but they needed to head to the Miasma Forest now and didn't have the time.

Therefore, they could only take it step by step and deal with this trouble after they explored the secrets of the Miasma Forest.

Looking at the fallen bodies on the ground, the gazes of everyone towards Bai Li Hong Zhuang and Di Beichen couldn't help but change slightly.

They all understood that the reason the Blaze Mercenary Group had left was entirely because of Bai Li Hong Zhuang and Di Beichen.

If not for them, this fierce battle wouldn't have ended in such a short time.

At this moment, everyone couldn't help but sigh. Bai Li Hong Zhuang and Di Beichen were truly an extraordinary match, both of them were exceptional talents.

"There's a strong smell of blood here, which could easily attract demonic beasts. I suggest we set off first and find a suitable place for rest later. What do you all think?" Dongfang Yumu's eyes were filled with concern as he sought everyone's opinions.

Everyone nodded. Demonic beasts were most sensitive to the smell of blood, and this place was indeed not suitable for a long stay.

Soon, everyone quickly organized themselves and set off towards the direction of the Miasma Forest once again.

After Yi Huocheng left with Zhao Yihan and the others, a sense of unwillingness and resentment lingered on his face.

He couldn't say that Zhao Yihan's decision was wrong; he could only admit that his own strength was not strong enough.

If he could deal with Di Beichen, then the current situation wouldn't have turned out like this.

After walking a distance and not seeing any sign of Gong Shaoqing and the others catching up, Yi Huocheng finally stopped.

"Captain Zhao, thank you for your support. I will take my leave now," Yi Huocheng said with a clasped fist.

Seeing Yi Huocheng preparing to leave like this, Zhao Yihan hurriedly spoke up, "Brother Yi, wait."

Yi Huocheng raised his gaze, his handsome face filled with helplessness and determination.

"Captain Zhao, I will find a way to deal with Gong Shaoqing myself. I will remember your friendship, and if I succeed, I will definitely come to the Blaze Mercenary Group. Of course, if the Blaze Mercenary Group still needs me by then."

Zhao Yihan patted Yi Huocheng's shoulder. "Brother Yi, what are you saying? Since I've promised to help you, I won't go back on my word."

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope appeared in Yi Huocheng's eyes, and he couldn't help but ask, "Really? Are you really willing to continue helping me?"

Zhao Yihan nodded. "Of course it's true. Just calm down and listen to what I have to say."

Yi Huocheng looked at Zhao Yihan with shining eyes, abandoning his previous resolute attitude. After all, it was extremely difficult for him to kill Gong Shaoqing with his own strength.

"You've also witnessed Gong Shaoqing's strength just now. If we directly confront him, our strength is not enough. But if we go back now to gather more people, it might be too late."

Yi Huocheng agreed with a nod. Even though the Blaze Mercenary Group's base wasn't far from here, it would still take a day to return. By the time they came back, Di Beichen and the others would likely have already moved to an unknown location.

"So what should we do then?"

Yi Huocheng frowned. In that case, did he have no chance at all this time?

A smug gleam appeared in Zhao Yihan's eyes. "If we can't win by force, we'll have to use our wits. The Blaze Mercenary Group has achieved what it has today because we have our ways."
