Wū Hóu respectfully saw Lěng Yè off, watching him walk toward the main gate of the City Lord's Mansion. As Lěng Yè's figure receded into the distance, Wū Hóu took a deep breath, a turbulent storm raging in his heart. He had originally thought that his most beloved son would remain bedridden and paralyzed for the rest of his life, but he never expected a turning point to arise now.
Lěng Yè returned to the Guān family estate. The night was deep and quiet, and everyone was already asleep. He went back to his own room to rest. Before falling asleep, however, he still insisted on practicing cultivation for a while, because he was just a hair's breadth away from breaking through to the fifth tier of the Spirit Division Realm. He knew very well that he had to complete this breakthrough before dealing with Lěng Qiānyǔ.
Early the next morning, Lěng Yè rose early and diligently practiced his movement technique in the courtyard. He had only mastered one movement technique so far—Wind Shadow—while his other Martial Techniques were practically a blank slate. Yet, relying on the blessing of the Divine Fire, he no longer needed to depend on other Martial Techniques. Abilities such as Fiery Sword Qi, Fireball Throwing, and Profound Fire Body Protection were enough to crush most ordinary Martial Techniques, rendering it unnecessary for him to learn additional sword techniques or spells.
