Chen Beiwu led the Mirror Moon army back to Blackstone Gorge over three days and three nights, marching at a relatively slow pace.
There was no other reason: the Mirror Moon army had to escort and guard the captive cultivators of the three-sect alliance to prevent these enemy cultivators from escaping, while also transporting the vast quantities of cultivation resources and several batches of standard-issue spiritual artifacts seized from the treasury at Dragon-Breaking Cliff.
Chen Beiwu did not need to spare any attention to tally these spoils of war. Instead, he left Shu You and Mo Li, his subordinates, to inventory and transport them.
But Xuele was still uneasy, afraid Shu You would embezzle and conceal treasures, and volunteered to supervise.
Chen Beiwu naturally had no objection.
He had pocketed most of the high-grade resources stored in the treasury of Dragon-Breaking Cliff's fortified pass, but some might still have slipped through.
