Hao Xuan came to behind the tree for the second time gasping for a breath of fresh air. He rubbed the back of his head, which felt a little numb strangely.

"What is your plan? Retreating is still the best option."

Hao Xuan paused for a moment to actually consider the option and nodded soon after.
