Hu Le was quite apprehensive about Overturning Water. He understood well that with their combined strength, they couldn't possibly contend with this guy. They could only play dirty, as that was the only way to ensure their own interests.
"Boss, what do we do next? Even if all of us sacrificed ourselves, we might not be able to escort you to the mountain peak. If we can't get past the swamp, we might as well pack it up and head home!"

Hu Le shot a glare at the mage and said irritably, "If I brought you all here, I already made full preparations. Get out of the way—I'll handle this!"
"Whoa, Boss! Are you hiding some tricks up your sleeve? Spill it all now so we can stop getting startled and jumpy here, am I right?"
