After arranging for cover, some people quickly approached.
Huo Jingrui cursed inwardly as he saw their movements, then quickly adjusted his strategy.
He headed straight for Yunyi.
Yunyi had asked Wei Zijia to pick up some small stones, but Wei Zijia was shivering with fear.
Even so, she bravely crouched down to pick up the stones from the ground.
Although she dropped three of the five she picked up, fortunately, Yunyi had stockpiled plenty in her dimensional space and was merely using Wei Zijia's stones as a pretense.
Still, Yunyi regarded Wei Zijia more highly for at least not faltering at such a critical moment.
However, Yunyi hadn't expected them to have reinforcements, let alone ninjas.
By the time Yunyi noticed, Wei Zijia had almost been taken hostage again.
Thankfully, her quick reflexes allowed her to intervene in time.
But this disrupted her plans.
The enemies charging at them, no longer properly blocked, quickly reached their position.
