Shen Bai shook his head. "It was just a mission. There's no need for all this. Is there anything else that needs to be done?"
Yang Feng shook his head and said, "We just need to take this Treasure Pearl back and have the Soul Master release the souls inside. Then, everything will finally be over."
Shen Bai nodded. "Alright. I'll go back to Liangshui County with you, Lord Yang. After this is all settled, I should be heading off to that examination."
Yang Feng said no more. He turned decisively and led the way.
Everyone remained silent, but it was clear from their eyes that today's battle had left a profound impression on them.
The journey from the thatched cottage back to Liangshui County was uneventful.
Once they returned, Yang Feng handed the Beads filled with souls to the Soul Master.
The Soul Master took it, raising an index finger to tap the Beads.
Invisible souls streamed out of the Beads one by one, entering the bodies of the townspeople.
