When you're lost and uncertain about the future, calming your mind and focusing on cultivation is never a bad idea.
Nothing brings peace of mind more than enriching yourself. When you stand tall enough, some problems will naturally resolve themselves!
Zhu Minglang is in just such a state of mind right now.
Grow first, then make moves!
He spent a long time cultivating with the Sword Spirit Dragon on the Ten Thousand Years Floating Mountain, while the earthly seasons quietly passed by.
Zhu Minglang felt as though he'd only immersed himself in training for a short while, but an entire season in the City of Ten Thousand Miles had already gone by!
Finally, the time came again for the Red Sun to stand its watch.
Zhu Minglang gave the Sword Spirit Dragon a few gentle instructions and let it focus on doing its job, while he returned to the City of Ten Thousand Miles.
