"Master!"
"We've found Chen Xuan!"
"Are you alright?"
Three voices sounded almost simultaneously.
Chen Xuan rolled on the ground and got to his feet, finding himself still on the first peak. Lin Qing, Honglian, and Xu Xuanling hadn't gone far, and they quickly gathered around him as soon as they saw him.
At this moment, the sky over Nine Sons Peak was filled with forked branches, densely packed white lines crisscrossing, resembling a giant web.
"Don't worry, I'm fine," he said, looking up at the sky.
Lin Qing didn't forget to check Chen Xuan and breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming he was uninjured, "Not long after you fell into the erosion zone, it rapidly expanded."
"Why didn't you return to the store?" Honglian asked, "We all thought you'd escaped, and intended to withdraw from here."
"It's a long story. Was I only gone for a short while?"
She nodded, "About two or three minutes."
