Last night, Shen Mo had an extensive conversation with Chen Mengze. Having listened to Chen Mengze recounting past events that night, he developed a new understanding of him. However, these revelations didn't change much. Shen Mo still followed his own plans and routines, methodically arranging his cultivation days. He continued cooperating with Senior Brother Guo, each getting what they needed.
After conveying Chen Mengze's desired birthday gift to Guo Zhao, Guo Zhao was overjoyed and, as promised, bestowed upon him a low-grade Profound Level Spirit Sword. In the meantime, Shen Mo fulfilled his duties conscientiously, concentrating on Alchemy and making talismans in his room daily without venturing out.
Life passed quickly.
