The Nine Nether Elder paused and added, "For this cross-dimensional travel, someone needs to guard the array node here, to prevent the unexpected and to receive us when we return."
"Hongyi will remain in the Wind Origin Realm to take on this responsibility."
"Hongyi remains in the Wind Origin Realm?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Ping's eyebrows furrowed almost imperceptibly, but quickly relaxed thereafter.
His gaze turned to Hongyi, wearing an appropriately thankful expression, "In that case, it will be a laborious task for Fellow Daoist Hong to guard. The stability of the rear is crucial to the success of this venture."
Hongyi gave a refined smile, waving his hand, his tone sincere: "Brother Xu, you are too polite. We have been friends for years, there is no need for such words."
"Besides, leveling the Heaven-Suppressing Sect is a grand affair."
Xu Ping looked deeply at Hongyi and nodded.
Since the arrangements were settled, he did not add more words.
