Wooyun eyed the doors, his expression strained. Ever since Lee Jaha had contacted him, a persistent worry gnawed at his mind. The first guardian almost never reached out unless it was dire. If even Lee Jaha thought this was urgent, maybe it truly was. Should he really stay put?
[You've been given instructions. It would be foolish not to follow them.]
"Yeah, but if the sect is in danger, shouldn't I be out there with everyone else?" Wooyun wondered, conflicted. After all, wasn't he a disciple, too?
[You've changed quite a lot, child. The old you would've much rather stayed within the confines of this room and wouldn't dare go out there and fight willingly.]
Wooyun pursed his lips at this observation. "Maybe I really have changed," he admitted inwardly. "Staying in a cultivation world like this, learning to fight, absorbing martial culture, it's bound to affect someone. Still, the instructions are clear, and maybe I should listen. I'll stay here."
