The flying boat left the Southern Border, heading north.
For the past two days, Ye Zi'e had been cultivating alone in her room, not disturbing Chen Mo and Li Yuan's private time. It was only when the flying boat hovered over Golden Sun State that she stepped onto the deck.
The people of Sky Scale Guard had long gathered there, listening to Chen Mo's instructions for the next arrangements.
"The report for the recent journey south has been written. You all head back to the Capital to report for duty. I have some personal matters to attend to," Chen Mo said. "The control of this Cloud Mist Magic Boat will temporarily be in the hands of Households Commander Li; the remaining Spiritual Marrow is sufficient for the journey."
"Yes."
"Understood."
The crowd responded repeatedly.
Li Yuan, her eyes full of reluctance, softly said, "Sir, return early once you've completed your tasks; I... we will wait for you in the Capital."
