Xiao Shi stood up and stretched her body for a moment. 

Chu Li suggested, "You should follow me back first!"

"I have to return to Fairy's Capital with the others." Xiao Shi shook her head.

Chu Li frowned.

Through the Omniscient Mirror, he noticed that Su Ru and a few protectors from the High Duke's Public House were also in the area. They had suffered some minor injuries but were doing fine at that moment. This was proof of King An's superb light-body technique, which allowed him to snatch Xiao Shi directly from Su Ru and the protectors without having to engage them in close combat.

"Just let them carry on with their journey without you," Chu Li said with a huff.

"Forget it," Xiao Shi replied and shook her head. "You can hardly defend yourself over there too, right?"
