Send one... Mmh mhh... Jey are glean, regular bills</span> - Kyo Ko spit back the hard ball of medicine.
<span class="mu-b">I don't predict a great Bandit career to that LuoBin.</span>"
With that settled, you devote the next week to an insane speed - burning all your obtained pills (Okay, mainly Kyo Ko burning through your pills to keep up on the long range).
A bit better than expected, you made it back to the sect in one week. The only thing in your mind while closing the remaining distance in familiar land : Bed, bath and something other than fasting pills to eat will surely feel amazing tonight.

-<span class="mu-s">I see. Great work you two. Let me read that... Looks like you'll have to get back to the Golden Skystone Village in a few months.</span>
