Shang continued down the street absentmindedly.

Alex had died.

In fact, Alex had long been dead.

Shang wasn't sure what he was thinking about while he was pulling the sled wagon for several hours.

Shang continued pulling the sled wagon, and it felt easier than before.

It was like a conflict inside him had vanished.

Going forward had become easier.

Shang's mind went back to the events from last night a couple times, but the emotions associated with the event became duller and more distant.

They were only happy that there were fewer bandits now.

Shang only looked at the merchants with a distracted expression and only muttered a quiet thanks for their words.

Some of the merchants wanted to start a conversation, but Shang always only gave one-word answers, which essentially made it impossible for a proper conversation to occur.

After a day of pulling, Shang arrived at his destination.
