Qingyu didn't hesitate and decisively issued the command:
"Retreat! Jelaba takes the lead, Peibela and I will stay behind, the rest of you carry the wounded and non-combatants."
Immediately, everyone sprang into action. Qingyu soared into the air, her body radiating bright light, shining in mid-air like a star.
Rod understood that she was using herself as bait. The aura of flames and the firelight are extremely detested by the monsters, causing them to prioritize attacking this shining orb.
With Qingyu's high maneuverability, she might be able to evade the attacks.
Horus tacitly pulled out a lantern, and the faint light illuminated the team.
The crowd rapidly retreated to the rear.
Behind them, the spiritual energy ripple reached the sky, but no one turned back until they had exited the mountains and then stopped.
Shortly after, a spot of firelight quickly approached them from the darkness, and Qingyu and Peibela returned to the group.
