The matter at Black Water Town settled, Shen Yanli and Mo Bai still had to continue their journey, so they bid farewell to Zeng Qi.
At the inn's entrance, Shen Yanli and Mo Bai clasped their hands in a respectful gesture of farewell to Zeng Qi.
"Brother Zeng, our master-disciple duo must head to Spirit Mountain to participate in the Sword Competition, so we take our leave here."
Zeng Qi also clasped his hands in return, "Very well, I will see you both off here. May your journey be safe and smooth."
"Indeed, the mountains remain unchanged," Shen Yanli replied politely and modestly.
After the farewell, Shen Yanli and Mo Bai mounted their horses and continued onward. They had spent a full five days in Black Water Town, with only five days left until the Sword Competition. After hurrying along, they finally arrived at the designated time.
