More than ten miles away, in an underground river, Jia Ren emerged out of thin air with Zhang Peng Peng.
The river's channel wasn't wide, and an undercurrent surged.
The two sank into the icy water, allowing the bone-chilling currents to flow past them.
He wanted to stand up but found the space too cramped to do so.
Did it work?
Jia Ren couldn't be certain that using the Xuan Shui Escape could allow him to take someone with him; this was an attempt.
If he couldn't bring someone along, he would have to... give up.
If Zhang Peng Peng died, he would just have to avenge her.
Cultivators were powerful, with many means at their disposal, and it wasn't out of the question that they could resurrect the dead.
Only if he lived would there be hope...
Things didn't go in the worst direction. The Xuan Shui Escape was extraordinary and indeed capable of taking someone along with him.
Wang Mingyan?
Should he go save her?
The thought flashed through his mind and was quickly dismissed.
