Shi Lang was sitting under a pavilion with his eyes closed. In his lap, the spear, Tribulation, was vibrating slightly. He was comprehending the way of the spear. In the last battle, Shi Lang realized that he was not as lethal with the spear as he was with the sword.
He could have used the Dao Swords, but he was not sure if it was a good idea to reveal his complete strength just in case these demon monks were connected to the Monk Supreme.
Yes, in the past he fought with his sword, but at that moment, he was not aware of the spiritual imprint that resided inside the bodies and the souls of the monks. When he found out that he can be backtracked, he made sure to hide himself as much as he could.
Hao Mei came to the pavilion and sat down in the void beside him silently, waiting for her master/father to finish the session and open his eyes.
Shi Lang did not meditate any longer after sensing that Hao Mei was around him. He opened his eyes and asked, "Xiao Mei, what is it?"
