Chapter 140: Chang

Chang'an is nine thousand li away; even if the end is still nine thousand li off, I will walk step by step toward it.

To advance is to face a mountain of blades and sea of fire; to retreat is to lose all opportunity.

This speaks of Ji Yuan, of Yulou, and of every cultivator in Wunan's immortal realm.

It speaks of us too.

To grow, one must step beyond comfort, embrace adventure, and break through oneself.

In a sense, this too is danger—a kind of unpredictable mountain of blades and sea of fire.

But if you retreat, if you lie flat, your lifetime's ceiling may end right here.

Chang'an refuses to accept this, so he writes more, works harder, pours his heart into his writing.

He wants to move a little farther, go a little further, rise a little higher.

Chang'an is nine thousand li away; even if the end is still nine thousand li off, I will walk step by step toward it.

In the new year, Chang'an will keep striving!

I humbly ask all fellow cultivators to continue supporting me.

Chang'an will surely use his greatest ability and wisdom to craft Yulou's story well, and will not let any of you down.

Lastly, I wish you all good health, happy families, joyful lives, and abundant wealth.

Health is most important, family matters too, joy in life is the foundation; as for wealth, if it doesn't come, we don't force it.

Chang'an bows once more, deeply grateful for your support, fellow cultivators.

Thank you!
