Shen Xuan shouted loudly to Elisa and Jeffrey down below, "What are you standing around for? Come help and let's finish this thing together!"
With that, Shen Xuan gave an inward nod.
This urgent tone and excited expression were both pitched just right.
For someone like him, a salted fish so skilled at acting, this was really...
Too cool!
Imrovened in his own peak acting performance, Shen Xuan did not forget to do a forward roll to retrieve his weapon, which was stuck upright in the ground.
Thanks to Silver Fox diverting the trouble, the pressure on Elisa and Jeffrey had eased considerably. Hearing Shen Xuan's shout, Elisa did not drag her feet; she quickly broke away from the harassment of four or five Black-Armored Demon Lizards and rushed toward Shen Xuan and the others.
Although Jeffrey had no wish to help Shen Xuan, they were facing a common enemy now, so at least the superficial courtesy had to be maintained.
The two of them returned to provide support.
This also meant that Elisa's initial arrangement had ended in failure.
Once drawn into a group battle, there was no guarantee she would be able to look after Christina.
However, as a princess, Christina certainly had no shortage of self-preservation methods, so the probability of an accident was actually quite small.
