Zephyr's pupils dilated in fear instantly; Xinran was like a guiding torch for him in this city of corruption. If something happened to her right now, he would not be able to find his way forward!
Xinran had all the knowledge that Zephyr wanted, and she also knew various methods of retreating and escaping from this city!
If she died, all that knowledge being buried with her would be the least horrific scenario; the most troublesome situation would be if she got soaked in miasmic rain and got corrupted!
Once corrupted, there was a high possibility for her to turn into a puppet of miasma, and all her knowledge would also be extracted by miasma.
At that point, Zephyr's escape routes would be completely sealed, and his situation would become similar to a rat trapped inside a massive rat trap!
All the escape routes that Xinran knows would become known to Miasma and the vessel of corrosion and would be destroyed or sealed instantly!
'I can't let her die! I have to do something!'
