Ling Fei's return left Lian Shuang utterly astonished.
After all, when Ling Fei had left, countless Demon Beasts were attacking Lian Shuang from behind, including five Great Demons of the Nascent Soul Realm.
For Ling Fei to rush back now, even with his profound foundation, dealing with five Nascent Soul Realm Great Demons would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
Ling Fei had only succeeded this time because of a surprise attack, which allowed him to kill two Great Demons outright.
Afterward, he had to exert all his strength to finally kill the last one, the Peng King.
Without the opportunity for that initial surprise attack, he would have had to face several Great Demons at once. Saving Lian Shuang would have been incredibly difficult.
He might have even met his end here with regrets.
And one must remember, Ling Fei's success was only possible because Lian Shuang had already slain two Great Demons herself!
