"It should be safe here," Su Ming mumbled and put away the black mask.
He closed his eyes and immersed himself in his meditation.
Several days passed by. With the help of a large number of South Asunder, the injuries in Su Ming’s body were healed.
He fell into contemplative silence for half a day, then gave up on the idea to leave the place. Instead, he chose to stay in the trunk. The red meadow spread out into an area of 100 feet around him. Once it completely covered the place, Su Ming was hidden.
Time trickled by slowly. One month, two months, three months… Four months passed by. Su Ming did not venture too far from where he was. He took Mountain Spirit to increase his power within the tree trunk.
During these past few months, he often talked to He Feng and learned a lot of things. He also heard about He Feng’s deeds in the past few years, things which made the man proud of himself.
