The atmosphere in the camp was tense.
Jiang Weifang wore a troubled expression.
She had finally found a powerful ally, but who would have thought that in less than a day, she would be losing him?
She had teamed up with Pei Ze for a better chance at survival and hunting barbarians. But now, under these circumstances, Pei Ze himself had become the source of danger.
It was clear that if she continued to team up with Pei Ze, they would be targeted by countless other apprentices.
Pei Ze might be able to withstand it, but she knew she couldn't.
"Pei Ze..." Jiang Weifang began, then trailed off.
Pei Ze held up a hand, cutting her off. "I understand. We should go our separate ways."
After a pause, he added, "It's late now. You can leave first thing in the morning."
Jiang Weifang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, her expression turning apologetic.
"I'm sorry. I'll still pay you as agreed."
"Don't worry about the payment." Pei Ze waved his hand dismissively.
