The little stoic didn't bother to listen further and urged the phoenix to swiftly descend in that direction.
The fire phoenix naturally followed the little stoic's command. Even though many were grumbling, suggesting that the little stoic should first take them to a safe place to tend to their needs…
The little stoic paid no heed, directing the phoenix to land on the hillside in the suburbs mentioned by the Holy Son.
Disembarking from the phoenix, everyone was left speechless. Zhongli Zhiwei was both flustered and exasperated. "Why won't you listen to anyone?"
"I already said the situation is still very dangerous, hic!"
"Can't we just return to the temple and tend to our injuries?" Zhongli Zhiwei fired a series of complaints. "What are you doing? Why are you so self-centered?"
"Shut up!!" The little stoic turned to glare at Zhongli Zhiwei and shouted angrily, "One more word of nonsense, and I'll kill you!"
