"That's right, Second Brother is right. The only reason that old bastard Shen Yuan has survived this long is because he's a damn good runner. The moment things look bad, he's the first to bolt."
Zhu Siyuan chimed in. If they hadn't been assigned to reinforce Qing State Tan City, they never would have cooperated with Shen Yuan.
After spending this time with him, they realized the man was great at putting on an act but was also a complete coward. He wanted to run the second he sensed trouble. Someone like him was a rare sight in the No-Life Evil Cult.
"Don't worry about him. We just need to make use of the men under his command. As for his desire to run, he'll have to outrun the Cyan Yuan Sect's people first."
"How can we possibly hold off the Cyan Yuan Sect for half a month without sacrificing an Inner Refining Elder?"
"Isn't he a fast runner? It's perfect if he draws their fire for a while longer. It makes our mission that much easier."
