Therefore, he had to act alone. If he involved the Northern Territory Sect, it would easily bring unnecessary trouble to the sect.
Since Yang Chen had chosen the Northern Territory Sect, he regarded it as his home and wouldn't cause them unwarranted trouble.
This matter was only between Yang Chen and the Fire Essence Beast.
However, if he wanted to leave the team now, it would be almost impossible. Wang Tong and Zhu Kai would never let him leave without worries.
It was not Wang Tong and Zhu Kai's fault, as they were concerned for his wellbeing. However, this left Yang Chen helpless, and after some consideration, he decided to take things one step at a time.
Although Wang Tong resolutely rejected Taqing Peak's goodwill to save face, he was well aware of his situation. With only six people in their party, plus Yang Chen as a burden, they could hardly be called strong. In this situation, they had to be cautious.
