Chapter 445: Chapter 445

It thundered, and bolts of lightning cracked at the roof of the Li house.

The commotion attracted many people’s attention.

Xu Muan looked in the direction of the Li house nervously.

Xiao Xiaodong noticed the tension on Xu Muan’s face and consoled, “Daddy, don’t worry. The thunder retribution is weaker than Father’s. Grandpa will be fine.”

Xu Muan forced a smile and said, “I hope so.”

Xiao Xiaodong looked at the distance and said with envy, “I wonder when I can advance to Nascent Soul.”

He shook his head ruefully. He was at the advanced level of Golden Core, and he hadn’t reached the peak yet. Even if he reached the peak of Golden Core, it would take him some time to advance to Nascent Soul.

Chen Xu tilted his head and said, “Xiaodong, you are too young to think about that.”

Xiao Xiaodong nodded and said, “You are right.”

It kept thundering, and Xu Muan was upset.

He said sullenly, “Why hasn’t it stopped thundering?”

Xiao Jinting glanced at Xu Muan and said, “Don’t worry. It’s almost over.”

Suddenly, he smiled. “Here it comes.”

Spiritual Qi poured down. Xu Muan was overjoyed.

After the thunder retribution, spiritual Qi would pour down and reshape the physique of the survivor. The sight of spiritual Qi meant Li Yi had made it.

Xu Muan said with excitement, “Has my daddy made it?”

Xiao Jinting nodded and said, “I think so.”

Xu Muan smiled broadly and said, “Great!”

Xiao Jinting looked at his happy face and smiled. Li Yi had advanced to Nascent Soul, and Xu Wang must have guessed what happened. Big changes were going to take place at the Xu family.

At the Xu house.

Xu Wang looked in the direction of the Li house and said with a grave face, “Li Yi seems to have made it.”

Li Rao frowned. She had a bad feeling.

Xu Wang looked at Xu Peng and Xu Cheng and said, “Go investigate Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan’s background. Check what they have done since they came.”

Li Rao lowered her head, her heart churning. Was Xu Muan Li Yi’s son? If positive, Li Yi was so lucky. He not only retrieved his son but also had a Nascent Soul son-in-law.

At the Li house.

Xu Lingfeng jumped up in joy and said with excitement, “Uncle Li. Yi made it. He made it.”

Li Shuang nodded and said, “Yes! Young Master has advanced to Nascent Soul! But Mr. Xu, Young Master has gone through the thunder retribution, so he has to recuperate for a while before he comes out of the seclusion. You have to wait for a few days to see him.”

Xu Lingfeng nodded earnestly and said, “I know. I know.”

He thought, “I’ve been waiting for so many years, and I will wait for a little longer.”

He could take the chance and drove Xiao Jinting away. He felt aggrieved that Li Yi asked Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan to stay at his house before going into seclusion. Li Yi treated them too well.

Xu Lingfeng asked in confusion, “Uncle Li, has Yi put the past behind him?”

Li Shuang nodded and said, “Yes.”

Xu Lingfeng asked in bewilderment, “Why does he suddenly do that?”

Li Shuang looked at Xu Lingfeng and asked, “Aren’t you happy about it?”

Xu Lingfeng mumbled, “Yes, but I feel strange about it.”

…

Xiao Jinting sat in the room, sipping tea. Xu Muan fell in deep thought.

Xiao Jinting asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Many people are lurking around the house.”

Xiao Jinting said, “Xu Wang couldn’t wait anymore.” If Xiao Jinting’s cultivation level had been lower, Xu Wang might have attacked them.

Xu Muan said, “Xiaofan is urging us to go back.”

Xiao Jinting said, “It’s time to go back.” He heard that the Cloud Continent was not peaceful.

Xiao Xiaodong and Chen Xu stayed in the garden and looked with interest at the venomous insects and poisonous snakes.

The little pheasant stretched its neck and swallowed a long centipede.

Xiao Xiaodong looked at it and said, “These are Grandpa’s pets. He is a Nascent Soul now. You will be hit if you eat these insects.”

The little pheasant fluttered its wings and said indifferently, “He’s only a Nascent Soul. Your dad is also Nascent Soul. If Li Yi attacks us, ask your dad to hit back.”

Xiao Xiaodong sneered. “If Grandpa hits you, Father would sit back. Perhaps he will help Grandpa.”

The little pheasant nodded and said, “You are right. Your father is a pushover.”

Xiao Xiaodong was speechless. He thought, “My father is not a coward. He is sensible.”

The little pheasant said admiringly, “Li Yi is good at raising insects. They are juicy and delicious. Do you like to have a taste?”

Xiao Xiaodong was speechless.
