Xie Dong and Xie Xi set out to locate Xie Miao, and the five of them departed together.
As they traversed the path from which Xie Jingrong had come, he appeared visibly anxious throughout the journey. His gaze frequently shifted towards Qiao Xuan, prompting him to inquire if she needed to rest or if she felt uncomfortable pushing herself forward.
Qiao Xuan admitted to feeling a bit tired and weak, but fortunately, her superpower remained unaffected, providing her with some relief and enabling her to persevere.
After taking three breaks, they emerged from the forest after sunset, bathed in the radiant afterglow of the setting sun.
Located less than five miles from the forest, a village with over 100 families presented itself. Xie Dong approached a local family, securing permission for the group to stay.
