Just like that, we all returned to the Yun family. When we got back, I saw that I was covered in mud.
I took a bath, then lay on the bed and slept like a log. Today had truly worn me out.
The next day, after getting up and finishing breakfast, I sat in the living room smoking.
Yun Yao and Jiang Yujie kept looking at me without saying a word.
If my skin had not been thick enough, I would not have been able to sit there at all.
Before long, Jiang Yujie could not hold back any longer and asked what Grandpa Yun had said to me the night before.
In an irritated mood, I replied, "Nothing. We just chatted about everyday matters."
But Jiang Yujie kept pestering me with questions. I was so annoyed that I told him I would tell him in a few days.
A few days passed like that, and I continued cultivating as usual.
Finally, one night, I broke through and officially reached the late stage of the "Seeking the Dao" realm.
With it came even greater command over the lightning power within me. Yun Yao and Jiang Yujie both congratulated me repeatedly.
Truth be told, their cultivation was higher than mine.
It was just that they had lived under the Lineage's protection all these years and had not experienced much of the sinister nature of human hearts.
That day, after eating, I wanted to stroll through the streets again and see whether there were any good materials. I wanted to stock up on some for later use.
Seeing me head out, Yun Yao and Jiang Yujie said they wanted to come along. Seeing Jiang Yujie limping, I told him to stay home and rest.
Yun Yao agreed, and Jiang Yujie stayed behind
