After everything was cleaned up, Feng was finally ready to leave.
Before departing, he took some of the remaining meat from the Red-Tipped Brown Boar that he hadn't finished, ensuring he had food for his journey.
Feng also made sure to bring enough fresh water.
Using the surrounding trees, he fashioned a makeshift water bottle and filled it with water from a nearby river.
Once everything was prepared, he looked up at the Blackwood Ruler for the last time in quite a while.
"Senior, I'll be going now. Thank you for taking care of me all this time," Feng said solemnly, bowing his head once again.
The Blackwood Ruler, though clearly reluctant to part, understood that Feng needed to leave. Raising its head, it let out a powerful howl—
AWOOOO!!!!
A mighty sound spread throughout the Blackwood Forest, reverberating from the center all the way to its fringes.
All the spiritual beasts trembled in fear.
