As Wu Long walked on the wooden bridge, Old Yen followed closely behind him.
"As I thought he is no longer there"
"Will we not visit the Yen Kingdom then?"
"No, we will visit it as planned, there is still some more we could learn, and possibly get rid of some dregs"
Wu Long did not need to turn and look to know that Old Yen had a slightly joyous light in his eyes.
Old Yen knew that Wu Long no longer placed as much importance on the Yen Kingdom if the person he was looking for was most likely not there. And his joy was coming mainly not from the fact that he would be able to enact his revenge on the opponent who pushed him out and made him an exile with nowhere to call home. The main source of his happiness at the moment was the care of the man he followed.
He did mention a reason to go there, but it was more of an excuse than anything.
