Chapter 144 Forbidden Art: Natal Thunder Essence

Chapter 104 Wan Lei Returns Home

Wan Family, Southern Compound.

Wan Lei's courtyard.

The three figures appeared.

"You guys chat, I'm going home first."

The blush on Qi Manyao's face hadn't faded yet.

"Go home? This is your home forever. The Wan family's doors are always open for you."

"Bah, I'm going back to our Punishers division."

"Don't go back, just stay."

"Stay and do what?"

"Have children early!"

"Ahhh!!! Wan Lei, I'm going to kill you!"

Seeing Wan Lei getting addicted to taking advantage, Qi Manyao gnashed her teeth and claws, striking at him.

"Oh, busy, huh?"

A voice came from outside the door.

The three looked over and saw Wan Hongxin and Wan Zhentian standing at the door, the former with a hint of ambiguous smile on his face.

Obviously, he had heard the words "have children early" and the like.

Qi Manyao's face turned even redder.

"Dad, Grandpa."

"Yes, I heard thunder in the backyard from the front yard, so I knew you were back. Xiao Hang, did he leave with his master?"

After Sui Xiaohang became a disciple, he not only told Feng Silu, but also his father, Sui Potian, so Wan Hongxin and others naturally knew about it.

"Yeah, that guy really had dogshit luck this time, actually becoming a disciple of a Heavenly-Grade alchemist from the Heavenly Pill Pavilion. His rise to prominence is just around the corner."

"Isn't that right? That night, Sui Potian dragged me out for a night of drinking, bragging non-stop in the first half of the night, saying that his son had become successful, that he wasn't a useless person anymore, and that he, as a father, could benefit from it.

"In the second half of the night, he kept crying, saying that his son had never left him since he was a child, and that the Central Region was so chaotic, with powerhouses everywhere. What if he got bullied there?

"Hahaha, that guy, when children grow up, they eventually have to go out and venture. What's there to be reluctant about?"

This is probably a common problem for all parents in the world, both hoping that their children will have a promising future and become dragons and phoenixes, and worrying about their children suffering and being bullied outside.

They exhaust their efforts for their children, such is the heart of parents everywhere.

"Fortunately, you're still at home, not traveling far, so I don't have to be as sentimental as that old codger Sui Potian."

"Dad, I've signed up for the Myriad Pride List competition. I'll be going to the Central Region in three months."

"..."

"Myriad Pride List? I've heard of it. It's a grand event that happens once every century. All the Core Formation geniuses of the Thunder Wind Realm will participate. What, you're going too?

"I heard that every Myriad Pride List competition is a very brutal slaughter."

"Yes, that's precisely why I want to go. This is an opportunity to see the most outstanding young people in the entire Thunder Wind Realm, and it's also a good opportunity for a carp to leap over the dragon gate.

"With my talent, if I can be noticed by a large sect, I will definitely cultivate faster and better.

"Qishan Prefecture is still too small."

"That's true, with your strength, you can indeed go out and venture. The family can't keep you confined forever.

"But Lei'er, don't be arrogant and conceited. Your strength is top-notch in Qishan Prefecture, but the entire Thunder Wind Realm is so vast, with countless geniuses like carps crossing the river.

"What I mean is, why not wait until your strength is stronger before going out to venture?"

"Dad, I just killed a Nascent Soul cultivator. He wasn't weak."

"..."

"What happened?"

Upon hearing this, Wan Lei explained his experiences at the auction house in detail, as well as how he desperately killed Qiu Tianchi at the end.

"Lei'er… truly a dragon among men!"

Wan Zhentian stroked his beard, becoming more and more satisfied with Wan Lei.

Killing a Nascent Soul cultivator with Core Formation cultivation, Wan Lei is probably the only one in the entire Qishan Prefecture, even the entire Lanning Kingdom.

"By the way, Dad, this is a Harmonious Qi Protecting Infant Pill."

Wan Lei took out the two pill bottles and placed them in front of Wan Hongxin.

"This… two pills? Where did you get so many?"

"These were personally refined by Elder Xuan Dan. They're Heavenly-Grade pills, not comparable to the Human-Grade pills at the auction.

"You guys gave me too little money. You don't know how fierce the fighting was at the auction for the Harmonious Qi Protecting Infant Pills.

"The cheapest one sold for 120,000 spirit stones, and the most expensive one sold for over 200,000. My 100,000 spirit stones aren't even enough to fill people's teeth.

"Fortunately, I met Master Xuan Dan in advance, otherwise I would have made a wasted trip this time."

"These… these two elders are really too good to you.

"Lei'er, you must always remember this great kindness, and if you have the opportunity in the future, you must repay them, even if it means paying a great price."

"Don't worry, I know."

"Well, I'll shamelessly take one of these two pills for my father. You keep the remaining one for yourself to use when you break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the future."

"Okay."

Wan Hongxin and Wan Zhentian chatted with Wan Lei for a while, asking about things in the prefecture city, and then left.

After all, with Qi Manyao, this future "daughter-in-law," present, they should leave time for the two of them.

"I'm going to the guest room."

Tian Suanzi waved his hand. He was a guest elder of the Wan family, so the Wan family naturally had a place for him to stay.

Here, only Wan Lei and Qi Manyao were left.

The atmosphere became a little awkward for a moment.

But fortunately, someone had a thick face.

"Don't leave yet. Let's take a look at the spoils of war this time. Maybe there's something suitable for you to use."

Wan Lei had rich experience and naturally wouldn't do such a noble thing as not taking wealth after killing someone.

Before he left, he took Qiu Tianchi's weapon and storage bag.

"You can take this ruler and use it. It's much better than your axe. Besides, you're a young girl, it's not good for you to carry a big axe around every day."

Wan Lei handed the heavy ruler to Qi Manyao.

Qi Manyao took the heavy ruler, speechless for a moment.

It's not good for me to carry a big axe, so it's good for me to carry a heavy ruler that's taller than me?

However, she still accepted it happily, without being humble.

She knew that Wan Lei's hammer was much better than this heavy ruler, after all, it was also a magic weapon with a weapon spirit.

Wan Lei poured out all the things in Qiu Tianchi's storage bag, piling them up on the ground in the courtyard.

As a rogue cultivator, Qiu Tianchi was relatively poor, with only about thirty to forty thousand spirit stones.

The little yellow dog also came out, searching with Wan Lei, to see if they could find anything good.

"Found it."

The little yellow dog held up a small ball.

"What is it?"

"I've always been curious about what kind of divine ability Qiu Tianchi used at the end? Now I've finally found it. It's recorded in this ball.

"This divine ability is not bad, suitable for the two of you to cultivate."

Wan Lei curiously took the ball and probed it with his divine sense. The information inside instantly entered his mind.

"Forbidden Technique: Natal Thunder Essence?

"What the hell? That divine ability that consumes your own life force and drains you to death? I'm not going to practice that."

"That's just the final suicidal move of this divine ability. It has other uses as well."
