Fang Bai returned to the Golden Crow Palace this time without even bringing Lotus Fairy and the Single-Horned Dragon Horse, instead leaving them with Zixu Immortal Emperor and others within a small barrier.
After all, his visit to the Golden Crow Palace might require him to stay by the side of the Golden Crow Immortal Emperor for a while, posing great risks. If his identity gets exposed, whether he himself could escape unscathed is uncertain, and Lotus Fairy and the others might be implicated.
Because if he were to fall, those like Zixu Immortal Emperor within the Five Elements Space Ring wouldn't be able to emerge, effectively trapped to death.
Rather than having them follow him into danger, it's better for them to stay safely within the small barrier.
As for why the other six Golden Crow Palace immortals perished and he alone returned, Fang Bai had already devised a strategy.
