"Is it really okay for you to leave them just like that?" Feng Yuxiang questioned after they left. "You should've punished the Clan Leader and the elders, even if it's just a little, since they enabled Bai Xutao's behavior."
Yuan smiled and said, "Who said I'm leaving?"
"What?" Feng Yuxiang muttered, confusion evident in her voice.
Yuan paused in his tracks and said, "I still have plenty of time before I must return to the Rising Phoenix Clan. I intend to revisit the Heavenly White Tiger Clan before then."
"What are you going to do in the meantime?"
Yuan retrieved the Heavenly White Tiger's Blood Essence and said, "I'm going to refine this blood essence."
"So we're going to return to my Immortal Cave right now?"
Yuan shook his head and said, "I have another place in mind, and it's much closer."
Some time later, they returned to where the Phantasm Serpent's Nest once existed.
"Isn't this…"
"I'm going to refine the blood essence in that serpent's lair," he said.
