Ning Gu said, "Fellow Daoist, please hear me out."
Lu Ye immediately showed a demeanor of listening attentively.
"Actually, before you came over, we had already discussed among ourselves. I will stay on the lowest level of the staircase, but the next level requires either you or Junior Sister Shuang to remain, because aside from you two, the cultivation of others is insufficient. Rashly staying will only increase risk. As for exactly who will stay, you and Junior Sister Shuang need to draw lots separately. Explaining it like this, perhaps Fellow Daoist understands?"
The Junior Sister Shuang he mentioned is his female cultivator companion, who shares the same Peak Dao Fusion cultivation as him.
Lu Ye didn't expect Ning Gu to be so selfless, willing to remain on the most pressured level. It's essentially giving up the contest for the exotic treasure. If that's the case, he really can't say much.
