Alex arrived at the room where Bai Jingshen was guarding them.
"You're out so quickly," Bai Jingshen said upon noticing Alex.
"Hasn't it been nearly two months now?" Alex asked.
"Yes, but that's barely anything for an Immortal, is it not?" Bai Jingshen asked. "You should spend more of your time cultivating."
"I spent all the time I could afford," Alex said. "I had to stop cultivating to start filling up my Origins."
"Good," Bai Jingshen said. "Which one did you start with?"
"The Tree," Alex answered.
"Is the Tree really a good choice as a Creation? Wouldn't it be wiser to focus on something you don't have?"
"I don't have the Tree," Alex said. "Or more accurately, I don't own it. I will have to return it to its rightful owners in due time."
"Right…" Bai Jingshen said. "The Nine Yang Court would hardly let you leave with it. How about not telling them?"
