"Fall back!" Seeing the Vermilion Bird already making a show of force, Zhou Tian was by no means afraid. However, while Zhou Tian didn't fear the Vermilion Bird, he was well aware that his subordinates, the beastman blacksmiths, lacked the ability to stand against it. Thus, before the onset of battle, Zhou Tian issued a retreat order for them.

The beastman blacksmiths were also well aware that the ensuing combat was beyond their capacity to contend. Thus, upon hearing Zhou Tian's command, they didn't dare to raise any objections and promptly decided to evacuate.

Only after all the beastman blacksmiths had retreated, did Zhou Tian then turn and plunge directly into the volcano.
