That afternoon, Zhu Haomiao went alone to the headquarters of the Yanhuang Armory on the outskirts of the Imperial City and explained his purpose to Liu Hongbin.
"You've only just ascended recently; don't you need to make some adjustments?"
"Uh..."
Upon hearing Liu Hongbin's words, Zhu Haomiao glanced at the levels of his Dao Heart and Original Sin. An inexplicable sense of urgency arose in his heart, but he maintained a calm and light smile outwardly.
"Since Senior Sister Ye has entered the Illusion Realm, I have nothing much to do in reality. I might as well focus on cultivation."
Hearing this, Liu Hongbin raised a quirky smile and, with a look of encouragement, patted Zhu Haomiao on the shoulder.
"Good kid, with such effort, you'll catch up to her sooner or later!"
"..."
Did you misunderstand something?
Zhu Haomiao wanted to clarify, but in the end, he could only muster a polite yet slightly awkward smile.
