"Thank you for nurturing me, Second Seat." Lan Xuanyu bowed deeply to Zhong Zhichang once again.
Zhong Zhichang nodded and said, "What are your plans going forward? Will you continue to retreat for cultivation?"
Lan Xuanyu shook his head and replied, "Second Seat, I want to relax for a while, clear my mind, and at the same time reflect on the changes within myself. I don't want to blindly cultivate in seclusion. I wish to feel how the breakthrough has altered my relationship with the laws of Heaven and Earth here. Then, the next step should be helping Xiuxiu complete her breakthrough. Once she succeeds, we can retreat into cultivation together."
Zhong Zhichang said, "That works too, proceed at your own pace. Your bloodline is different from ours, and the trajectory of your future growth will undoubtedly differ as well. Follow your heart, walk the path you want to walk; don't worry too much about external considerations."
