I've realized from a comment that some people hadn't read the Side Chapters, and while usually, they aren't necessary or even canon for most stories, they are rather important in this novel.
There are some things in this chapter that won't make sense if you haven't read the Li Rou side chapter. So if you would like to not be confused, please read that and then come back to this chapter.

Thanks to his Wind Chasing Horse, Xue Bai would be able to travel for another two days nonstop. Where he eventually reached Soaring Sword City safe and sound, and after returning the Wind Chasing Horse to its owner, he teleported back to the sect.
However, once he got off the teleporter, Xue Bai realized his mistake.
