Li Kui felt under immense pressure.
He really wanted to stop and say he couldn't run anymore, but feared exposing himself and getting taken out by Lin Beichen.
But if he didn't think of a solution quickly, they'd soon arrive at the Beishi Mercenary Corps base.
Once there, he'd have no choice; whether he wanted to or not, he'd have to go in.
Lost in thought, Li Kui's pace gradually slowed down.
Lin Beichen caught up from behind and asked, "Why'd you stop running?"
Li Kui was scared to death inside but maintained calm on the surface, saying, "Running for so long is kind of tiring, honestly."
"Why don't you go ahead? I'll rest for a bit and catch up later."
We'll see if you try sneaking away later.
Lin Beichen found it amusing but didn't reveal Li Kui's intent to escape.
"Oh, I'm a bit tired too, let's rest together then, we're almost there anyway," Lin Beichen responded flatly.
