Batu and Bal arrived with several Northern Barrens experts who had seen the signal. They cupped their fists to Su Ye and the others.
"Brother Long, and all our friends from Dong Huang, thank you. We'll part ways here. Come visit the Northern Barrens someday—we'll treat you to plenty of good food and drink."
After two days, the brothers' injuries had mostly healed, thanks in no small part to the Damage... Transfer ability within Su Ye's Life Control.
