The opening hours for the Black Market in Boat City are typically from the end of the Hour of Chen in the morning till sunset in the evening.
However, by the time Li Xuan and his group got their hands on the 'Tayin Talisman', it was already late in the Hour of You (7 p.m.). Then, traveling from Jinling to Yangzhou would take about one to two hours.
So, no matter how eager they were about this clue, they had to wait until the next day.
After dismissing his group, Li Xuan first instructed Li Dalu to scout ahead. Only after confirming that his sister-in-law hadn't returned home and that a family war hadn't broken out, did he return home.
That night, after much hesitation, Li Xuan let Leng Yurou execute the 'Motian Dalunzhuan' to him. And only after groaning and wailing for half an hour, did he swallow a Liudao Renyuan Elixir.
