"Without preparation, how can we leave? Given our unique identities, any move we make becomes a focus of attention. We must disguise ourselves before leaving Tianyuan Town, lest we be discovered. Moreover, not just anyone can survive in the wilderness. It's possible we might find that woman has already been devoured by demons, and we'll have to retrieve the stone from their bellies."
On this point, Zuo Lv agreed.
The wilderness is perilous. Without some preparation, venturing out recklessly might mean not even knowing how one dies.
"By the way, should we call on Diao Deyi? I heard the Foolish Underworld has been unsealed, and that guy should be able to move freely now."
"... You are well-informed indeed."
The stone was for Hei Ao alone, it couldn't be shared. Therefore, besides rescuing Zuo Lv from house arrest, Hei Ao had to invest heavily to enlist Zuo Lv's help.
Adding another person would stretch his resources.
But after some thought, he still nodded in agreement.
