Yan Junze had no time to think about much else, making sure the Black Spirit Pearl was secure. He already had a plan, all three Black Spirit Pearls would be embedded into the mace, creating a fine weapon.
"Now you can leave," Rock picked up the Tricky Silk thread clumps he had twined absentmindedly while convincing himself he had lost, and walked towards the hole he had crawled out of.
Yan Junze asked, "Aren't you leaving? This place is likely to be exposed once my friend leaves."
"I can leave at any time," Rock had already started crawling into the hole.
Yan Junze stood there watching his retreating figure, seeing the large and oddly-shaped figure slowly disappear into the hole. Then, after looking around to make sure no one was watching, he too started climbing into the tunnel leading out of the underground space.
The area was not as tumultuous as when Yan Junze had first arrived; it had become very quiet.
