"Dai, their strength is so low. Taking them along with us is definitely dangerous." She blinked her large eyes, looking genuinely worried for that group of people. Seeing Li Dai lost in thought after hearing her words, she pressed on, "Besides, Dai, you're going to take the alchemist grade assessment. Isn't it very inconvenient with so many people traveling together?"
At this point, seeing that the man dressed in dark cyan robes intended to speak, she turned around to block his line of sight to Li Dai and played her final trump card: "Inconvenience due to numbers is secondary. What I'm worried about is... Dai, you're so good at alchemy, you'll definitely get a great ranking in the assessment. By then, once you're famous, many people will pay attention to you and investigate the origins of you and the people around you. But right now, they have no status at all—their pasts are a complete blank. Wouldn't a group of people appearing out of thin air like this arouse suspicion?"
Still afraid that Li Dai might insist on dragging them along every step of the way, she didn't forget to add at the end: "The scariest part is, if someone gets jealous of your exceptional alchemy and plays dirty with us, you and I both have the means to protect ourselves, but they don't. If they get captured to be used as hostages against you, I'll be unhappy!"
