Shen Yuan shook his head lightly as he finally smiled and replied, "No need to annoy me. I'm not feeling down, just a bit sad at the separation. But we will soon meet again, so no need to worry so much."

He looked towards the horizon, feeling the gentle breeze blowing on his white robes.

"Time to look for someone to ask for directions." He spoke as the map wasn't detailed and only big terrains were marked on it."

Shen Yuan ran for some time on the grassy plains until he found a road.

"Fuck! I need something for traveling, I can't be walking on my feet throughout my journey," he spoke as he realized how much he had run on the plains. 

"I have been running for a few hours now and the distance I have covered should be in the thousands of km" He slowed down as he walked on the road.

"I should be able to find someone traveling on the road, right?" He thought aloud as he continued walking.
