The celebration feast ended swiftly.
All members of the Dragon King Hall staggered away in a drunken stupor.
Mu Jinyu, not deliberately suppressing the alcohol, was also somewhat tipsy. After downing the last cup, he stood up and smiled at Xiang Mantang, "Ah-Xiang, I'm feeling a bit dizzy, I'm heading back now. You should rest early too..."
"Brother..." Xiang Mantang stood up as well, following him to the door. Gazing at the yellowing leaves of the trees not far away, he sighed deeply, "Brother, it's time for me to leave."
"Hm? Leave for where?"
Mu Jinyu instantly sobered up, his eyes regaining their clarity, filled with worry as he looked at Xiang Mantang.
"To the place I must go. I've long since become out of place in this world."
Xiang Mantang looked up at the dark sky.
