The hour was getting late, and it was considered very impolite to disturb others at dusk, so Lu Hong arranged to meet Weiwei in the guild hall the next morning, where she would then introduce him to Earl Bacon.
Exhausted from a day's work, after completing all his guild tasks, Lu Hong arrived at his simple temporary residence and fell straight to sleep. Two hours later, he abruptly sat up, dispelled the sleepiness, and began to meditate in the lotus position.
Sleep is a human instinct that ought to be indulged, yet cultivation is the capital for survival in this foreign world and must not be taken lightly.
If he had known earlier that Earl Bacon was selecting candidates for the Eagle Expedition, he wouldn't have bothered with those guild tasks. Even without Weiwei's introduction, Lu Hong was confident that he could earn the Earl's recognition and be chosen for the expedition.
Upon arriving at the entrance to Earl's manor, Weiwei and her companion were already waiting at the door.
