• After Gu Yue and Zi Ji left, A-Tai worried about their strength, while Li Moxun opened his pill furnace and resumed refining pills.

Li Moxun prepared pills and made plans to leave East Sea Academy while Tang Wulin remained unconscious and the cause of the strange sky phenomenon stayed unknown. After arranging nearly four months of leave, Li Moxun departed to pursue forging, while his clone headed for Tianhai City’s auction.
