"Fourth Grandpa, I’m not tired. I can follow you around and take a look." Wang Shihai appeared energetic, indicating a stance that wherever Fourth Grandpa Shouzhe went, he would follow.
"No, you’re tired..." Wang Shouzhe said seriously.
"..." Wang Shihai looked bewildered.
...
In Wang Shouzhe’s small courtyard.
Six-year-old Wang Liyue and three-year-old Wang Zongrui were being cared for by Liua Feifei.
Liua Feifei was Ruolan’s niece, and incidentally married into the Wang Family, both to an uncle and nephew. Therefore, Liua Feifei and Liua Ruolan’s relationship was particularly close, and the family’s interactions were also very frequent.
"Second Sister, Second Sister." The still babyish Wang Zongrui tugged on his sister’s sleeve and said, "Why did Dad, after finally coming back, get taken to the Water Moon Celestial Pavilion by Mom before saying a few words?"
"I don’t know either." Wang Liyue pouted slightly, seemingly a bit unhappy as well. After all, she had finally seen her father, but before she could act spoiled, her mother whisked him away, "It seems Mom said sothing about a concubine, a celestial maiden, or sothing. Mom sounded very pleased and satisfied. She said Dad had made great achievents, and his skills improved..."
"That’s praising Dad, it should be a good thing." Wang Zongrui nodded seriously, "Truly happy for Dad..."
Listening nearby, Liua Feifei was sweating cold drops. How could this be a good thing... Really worried for Fourth Uncle... Aunt Ruolan is not easy to deal with.

Lingyun Sacred Land, Purple Cloud Lineage.
The Purple Cloud Lineage was located in the northeast of Lingyun Sacred Land, in a vast and rugged mountain range.
In the center of the mountain range was a deep, secluded valley surrounded by peaks.
This valley was nad "Celestial Thunder Valley."
At the heart of Celestial Thunder Valley, there was a floating mountain called "Purple Cloud Peak."
Purple Cloud Peak was entirely constructed from Celestial Thunder Stone, and from a distance, it looked like a sharp sword piercing the sky. The peak was shrouded in thunderclouds, occasionally split by bolts of blue-violet lightning tearing through the night sky, creating a magnificent sonic boom.
It was said that this Purple Cloud Peak was opened by the first ancestor of the Purple Cloud Lineage, "Purple Cloud Zhenren," and has a history of six thousand eight hundred years.
Unfortunately, by the generation of Purple Cloud Ascendant, there had been two or three generations without producing a Divine Power Zhenren. The current Purple Cloud Ascendant, remarkably talented, had only reached the peak of the Purple Mansion Realm.
Dissatisfied, the Purple Cloud Ascendant had entered closed-door training, declaring not to break through as a Divine Power, he wouldn’t co out.
Fortunately, the Purple Cloud Lineage was renowned for its Thunder Skill, always possessing strong combat strength. Even without a Divine Power Zhenren in residence, it remained one of the Nine Sacred Veins of the Saint Land, not to be underestimated.
Around "Celestial Thunder Valley" was where disciples of the Purple Cloud Lineage lived daily. Among them was a mountaintop that had been leveled, forming the Martial Arts Arena.
As night descended, many disciples had already gathered at the Martial Arts Arena, currently being led by the senior brothers and sisters in their night classes.
According to strength, cultivation progress, and cultivation techniques, the disciples were divided into several groups; so practiced the Purple Sky Celestial Thunder Sword Technique, others worked on their body technique and fist technique, and so were simply engaged in sparring matches to accumulate battle experience.
In a corner, there were also several senior brothers and sisters forming a circle, sharing their cultivation insights.
The disciples who could enter the Lingyun Sacred Land all had excellent talent, at least Middle Grade Talent, dubbed Little Celestial Pride. For example, Ancestor Longyan’s talent back in the day was rely enough to be an ordinary disciple here in Lingyun Sacred Land.
Only Celestial Prides could beco Core Disciples, receiving focused training from different peaks and veins.
As a result, although the number of these disciples was not large, their quality was exceptionally high. Any one of them, if placed outside, would be an elite among elites.
During the break in the night class, a round-faced young man finished practicing a set of sword techniques, couldn’t help but glance at Purple Cloud Peak in the distance, and sighed, "When will Master finally co out of closed-door training? I’ve been here for decades, and I haven’t even t Master yet~"
"Master is in closed death training; he won’t co out until he reaches Divine Power, can’t be that fast?" A fellow senior brother with a slim, narrow face couldn’t help but sigh, "I heard that when the Celestial Fire Zhenren from the Celestial Fire Lineage was breaking through to the Divine Power Realm, he was in closed training for over a hundred and thirty years~ and he succeeded. So who fail directly settle into ditation."
"Don’t get so preoccupied~ With our talent and strength, even if Master cos out of closed training, we might not have the opportunity to consult him. For any cultivation issues, consulting an Elder or a Senior Direct Disciple is just as good." Another senior brother with a square face had a rather optimistic attitude, "Look at Senior Sister Cao, in a hundred and sixty years since joining, with Master in closed training for a hundred years, hasn’t she also cultivated to the Seventh Layer of the Celestial Human Realm?"
"Senior Sister Cao?" The narrow-faced senior brother’s eyes lit up, "Do you an Senior Sister Cao Youqing from the Southern Desert County so ti ago...?"
"Yes, that’s her."
"I’ve heard about her too." The round-faced young man looked excited, "Senior Sister Cao is amazing, she even discovered Zuoqiu..."
Just then, an eagle’s cry suddenly echoed in the night sky.
"Thunder Eagle?"
"Who’s returning?"
The group was taken aback and subconsciously looked up.
In the night sky, a gigantic blue-violet eagle spread its wings, spiraling down from high above. Its massive wings reflected starlight, appearing exceptionally majestic and imposing.
This was the exclusive spiritual bird mount of the Purple Cloud Lineage, "Thunder Eagle."
