Qi Yan, who accompanied the Peng family to fetch Peng Wu, did not return to the capital city with Qiao Cong and Qiao Jing after the reunion of the Peng family. Instead, he continued southward to pick up old Mu and Cheng Yun and their party.
The Peng family stayed at an inn for the night, and started their journey back to the capital city at dawn. They were caught up on the way by old Mu and Cheng Yun. Qi Yan successfully reunited with them, and Mo Yan was still alive, though he was unconscious most of the time.
The cook and the mute old couple from Xingluo Island were sent back to their original home by Feng Ming after they landed. Their home was in the southeast, not on the way to the capital city, so as not to delay sending Mo Yan to the capital. By this time, Feng Ming should have reached their destination with them.
After the greetings were exchanged, Peng Wei specifically looked at Mo Yan, with fury burning in his eyes, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.
