After this issue was resolved, Shang told George about the last decade.
He remained mostly truthful throughout his retelling, even telling him about the Blackshadow Kingdom and the Spirit Spring Kingdom.
Of course, George realized that things weren't adding up. After all, Shang had just returned from the Grandmountain Kingdom. The Spirit Spring Kingdom was on the other side of the world.
However, he also knew that this was probably related to the political thing Shang had referred to earlier. So, he didn't ask.
Naturally, Shang didn't tell George about his control over the Abominations. This was a secret Shang couldn't tell anyone in the world, lest he was viewed as the enemy of the entire world, which he kind of was.
After hearing everything about the last decade from Shang's mouth, George could see how Shang had changed so much.
He definitely hadn't had it easy.
