Chapter 005: What on Earth
Silence reigned.
No one paid any attention toYue Hongling.
Three days later,Yue Honglingreturned to theGrand Dao Sectwith a bang, heading straight forLu Ye’s place.
At that moment,Lu Yewas preparing to condense hisYuan Dan.
Yue Honglinglifted her foot, ready to kick the door open, but then glanced at the door she just made and ultimately refrained.
Of course, it was obvious that she had no manners and didn’t knock, simply barging in.
“Bang!”
AsYue Honglingpushed the door open, a fist came flying straight at her.
She reacted quickly, hurriedly attempting to block.
However, her body still flew backward, her blood surging, her face flushed red.
The door closed.
“Lu Ye!”
Yue Honglingwas so mad that she didn’t even call him senior brother anymore; she just yelled his name.
Lu Yeignored her.
He was already annoyed by her habit of barging in without permission from his previous life, but he was willing to tolerate it.
There were even times when he was having deep conversations with others, and she would just barge in, forcing herself into the discussion.
That habit of hers had never changed.
And now, who do you think you are?
Yue Honglingtook a deep breath, deep breath…
Teaching others doesn’t work; doing it yourself does!
For the first time in her life, she knocked onLu Ye’s door.
Knock, knock, knock!
“Get lost!”
Yue Hongling…
Don’t get angry, don’t get angry, or I’ll get sick and have no one to take care of me.
“Did you take theReturning Yuan Danfrom the ancient tomb?”
“No, get lost!”
The wordsYue Honglingwas about to say were choked back.
He said no?
He didn’t admit it?
“How can you not admit it?Lu Ye, what happened to you?”
Lu Yeremained silent.
“Answer me!”
Lu Yeremained silent.
“You can takeDanmedicine; you can open the door, right!”
“Stop hiding in there without a sound; I know you’re home!”
“Lu Ye, open the door!”
The door opened, and a smirk appeared onYue Hongling’s face.
However, what greeted her smug face was a fist, a fist that was fast and ruthless.
“Bang!”
A punch landed right onYue Hongling’s big, bright eyes, sending her staggering back.
Tears flowed uncontrollably.
“I’m going to fight you!”
Yue Honglinglet out a shriek; she had truly gone mad, charging atLu Yefearlessly.
AndLu Ye, he had respect for every opponent.
Come on, attack me, then get knocked out!
A white figure danced gracefully and landed in front ofYue Hongling, blocking her death charge.
“Hongling, calm down!”
Yue Honglingstopped. One of her eyes was black and blue, clearly indicating thatLu Ye’s strength was substantial.
“Master, boohoo, he hit me…”Yue Honglingcouldn’t withstand such humiliation, not knowing if her tears were from eye strain or heartache.
Bai Qiulanfurrowed her brows and looked atLu Ye.
“Why did you hit your junior sister?”
Lu Yereplied respectfully, “Wanted to.”
Bai Qiulan…
“Master, look at him!”
Bai Qiulansighed softly. “I know you have grievances, but she is still your junior sister.”
Lu Ye’s lips curled slightly.
“And she can just barge into other people’s rooms without knocking?”
“Can she just ignore me when I don’t want to deal with her?”
Bai Qiulan’s brows knitted even tighter.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about it.Hongling, what do you need from your senior brother?”Bai Qiulanasked.
She knewLu Yehad grievances in his heart, and some resentment was normal, especially since such things had happened; who could be free of resentment?
“He took theReturning Yuan Dan, I need it, and he doesn’t, so I want to trade for it.”Yue Honglingsaid pitifully.
Bai Qiulaninstantly understood.
Speaking of which, among their group of eight,Yue Honglinghad the worst aptitude. To keep her by his side,Lu Yehad expended a lot of effort.
“Since your junior sister needs it, and you don’t, why don’t you give her theReturning Yuan Dan? If you lack anything, just tell me, and I’ll get it for you.”
Lu Yeshook his head gently.
“Sorry, I need theReturning Yuan Dantoo.”
“Impossible! You have such good aptitude; you don’t even need theReturning Yuan Danto condense it!”Yue Honglingsaid, feeling wronged.
“Yeah,Lu Ye, you have good aptitude, and with your cultivation, you can condense aHoly Danwithout theReturning Yuan Dan!”
“When I say I need it, I mean I need it. Don’t bother me with anything else!”Lu Yesaid impatiently, turning to leave.
“Lu Ye, do you really think I can’t condense aHoly Danwithout theReturning Yuan Dan?”Yue Honglingwas about to explode.
Lu Yepaused, then turned.
In his hand appeared theReturning Yuan Dan.
BothYue HonglingandBai Qiulanwere taken aback, especiallyBai Qiulan, who felt a sense of teachable potential in her heart.
Then,Lu Yeopened his mouth and directly swallowed theReturning Yuan Danright before their eyes.
He turned and left!
What’s going on!
Bai QiulanandYue Honglingboth stared blankly.
“Bang!”
The door slammed shut.
Both of them were silent.
“So, he’s not like that after all…”
Bai Qiulantried to understandLu Ye; after all, they indeed hurt him, but it was alsoLu Ye’s fault.
Now that they had the chance to start over, couldn’t everything just return to normal? Did it really have to be so ruthless?
Yue Honglingnearly bit down on her perfectly white teeth.
“I don’t believe that without theReturning Yuan Dan, I can’t condense theHoly Dan!”
“I will definitely condense theHoly Danand slap you in the face hard!”
Yue Honglingshouted atLu Ye’s room.
Lu Yedidn’t pay her any mind; he had already started condensingDan.
Bai Qiulanwatched as the furiousYue Honglingstormed off, abruptly feeling a bone-chilling coldness wash over her.
Is it getting colder?
She looked up at the sky.
The sun was shining brightly.
…
Breakthrough successful!
As expected, theHoly Level Yuan Dan.
This meant that the flaw from the first step he had never reached perfection was finally being compensated for at this moment.
Cultivation is like building a high-rise.
Every step is crucial; any defect in any step gets magnified as the floors get higher.
He had suffered plenty on his prior cultivation journey because of this defect in the first step; who knew how much hardship he had to endure to compensate for it.
That’s whyLu Yewas so confident about condensingDannow.
Because he truly simulated it too many times.
After the breakthrough, he continued cultivating unabated.
His strength began to soar.
In four days, he broke through to the second layer ofYuan Dan.
In sixteen days, he broke through to the third layer ofYuan Dan.
In thirty days, he broke through to the fourth layer ofYuan Dan.
As his strength continually improved, his incredible divine abilities, which originally belonged to him, began to awaken one after another.
WhileLu Yewas zealously cultivating, many interesting things also happened atChu Sword Manor.
Chu Lingreturned toChu Sword Manor, once again becoming the pampered young lady loved by everyone.
In fact, to protect her safety, the manor assigned a total of eight powerful guards to watch over her constantly.
However,Chu Lingdiscovered a problem.
That was, her biological parents were missing.
After asking around, she was told byZeng Shuiyuethat her parents had no lingering attachment toChu Sword Manordue to her disappearance, so they had returned to their hometown.
Chu Lingfelt understanding; after all, her biological parents had already received plenty of money, so returning to their hometown could also ensure they lived well.
Another thing was thatChu Sihad disappeared.
She inquired withZeng Shuiyue, who told her thatChu Sihad leftChu Sword Manorto travel the world in search of opportunities.
She was immersed in the warmth of familial bonds.
Unbeknownst to her, the critical moment of theMagic Swordhad arrived.
