The group reached the city just as the sun was setting in the distance. They hurried to ensure that they would make it into the city before the gates closed for the night.
The city was bustling with energy. Everyone was out and about, some looking for food, others selling wares. As soon as they reached the other side of the gate, Xu Min turned to look at the group of mercenaries. He bowed slightly to them, signaling his departure. They too bowed in return.
"Thank you for leading me out of the wilderness forest. Thank you for showing me the way to this city. Now I will be taking my leave since I have some things that I need to deal with," Xu Min said politely. He straightened his back after which he, Cao Cao and Ye Ling turned to leave.
The mercenaries did not try to stop him. All of them were aware of just how strong he was, and they had already benefitted from him. They could not expect to gain any more from him than they already had. .
