Drifting was back. Actually, Gu Fei had been the one that told him to leave the guild. Back when they were surrounded from all sides, there were a total of 4 players who had PK Values over 20 PK points: Gu Fei, Sword Demon, Drifting, and Svelte Dancer.
As someone who often spent his time doing Bounty Missions, Gu Fei was at least aware that anyone who had a PK Value over 20 points would lose 2 levels even if they were sent to the Jail. Back then, he was already prepared to send everyone to Jail by grabbing their bounties, but the loss of two levels was best avoided if possible. As a result, he had sent Drifting a message and told him to temporarily leave the guild. Time was of the essence back then, and Gu Fei simply did not have the time to explain to Sword Demon and the others about his explanation, not to mention he was unable to announce it in the guild channel.
Thus, Drifting had departed just like that, while Svelte Dancer had also safely left the scene with the ladies from Amethyst Rebirth. Gu Fei himself had conveniently cleared out his PK Value at the same time he was bounty hunting his own guildmates, leaving just Sword Demon still unaccounted for. He was unable to leave the guild since he was the guild leader of Extremely Heaven Defying. Besides, as a newly created guild, they lacked any sort of unity to speak of that might very well disband right there on the spot if Sword Demon were to choose to do so. Even if this was not a problem, Gu Fei reckoned that Sword Demon would not choose to leave the guild as a means to escape the penalty, so he did not even speak to him about this matter at all.
Furthermore, Gu Fei had also thought to tell Royal God Call, Southern Lone Blade, and those experts to leave the guild when he dashed up to them. This was because he had also expected the enemy would not give up so easily as long as the guild remained intact, and that meant that this battle would most likely carry on for quite some time, so having more of such experts outside would always be the stronger fighting force.
