Chapter 109: Everyone Has Recovered

Jun Wu Xiao stared intently at the monster’s core. Aside from its black color, he felt nothing unusual about it. He thought to himself:

"From what I’ve witnessed, it’s almost certain that the monster core is an energy source. When I removed it, the entire body of the monster gradually disintegrated as if it had run out of energy. But how exactly does this energy work? This orb just looks like a black stone with nothing special about it. Maybe I should try burning it."

He hurried outside, gathered some wood, and started a fire. As the flames roared, Jun Wu Xiao tossed the monster core into the blaze.

Suddenly, he clutched his forehead and muttered:

"Damn it, am I stupid? Explosives couldn’t even scratch it before, so what could a low-temperature fire do?"

With that, he extinguished the fire, retrieved the core, and returned it to its original spot. This time, he rearranged the stones to block the cave entrance more securely, ensuring it wouldn’t collapse as easily as before.

"Haiz, who knows when these cores will be useful? Not knowing what to do with them makes me uneasy. Keeping something dangerous without understanding its purpose feels wrong. Well, whatever, maybe when I break through to a higher realm, I’ll understand more about this." Jun Wu Xiao sighed.

Afterward, he returned to his secluded cultivation spot and resumed his long, arduous cultivation process.

Ten years later, Yue Guang also made a breakthrough. Her entire body quickly recovered to its optimal state. That including her eyesight was restored and even surpassed her old eyesight.

Yue Guang slowly opened her eyes. After nearly thirty years of darkness, her vision had finally returned.

"Ah, I can see again at last. It’s been so long since I last saw the light, it feels a bit strange." Yue Guang remarked.

She wasn’t surprised or overly ecstatic. Perhaps she had always been confident that her eyesight would eventually return.

"He should be arriving soon." Yue Guang said.

She was right. A few days later, Jun Wu Xiao arrived at her place. After all, it was difficult to calculate the exact time, so being late by a few days was normal.

When he arrived at the place where Yue Guang was cultivating, Jun Wu Xiao saw an incredibly beautiful and familiar girl. He was astonished upon seeing her, thinking:

"Has she changed this much? She looks no different from the first time I met her. No, she’s even more beautiful than back then. Speaking of which, I haven’t looked at my own face in a while."

"Hey, you’re a bit late. I’ve been waiting for you for a few days now." Yue Guang said with a smile.

Jun Wu Xiao was taken aback for a moment and then asked:

"Did you know I would come?"

"Ha ha, of course, I understand you. Even though you usually act carefree, you still care about everyone. If anyone were seriously injured, you would pay attention to them like this." Yue Guang replied with a laugh.

Jun Wu Xiao didn’t deny it. That was indeed how he was. He said:

"By the way, did you know? You look even more beautiful now than when we first met."

Yue Guang was slightly taken aback, thinking that he must have recently learned how to compliment people. She laughed and said:

"Ha ha, who taught you how to compliment others?"

Jun Wu Xiao shook his head and said:

"I’m not complimenting you, I’m telling the truth. You really do look more beautiful than the first time we met."

At this moment, she noticed that Jun Wu Xiao himself looked better than the first time she met him. The rejuvenation from the recent breakthrough surprised her. She said:

"Wow, I didn’t expect to become this much younger. So, should we call ourselves old people or young people now?"

"Whether old or young mainly refers to our external appearance. Looking like this, no one would believe we’re old." Jun Wu Xiao said.

"You’re right, but being young or old isn’t that important. Fully recovering is still more important. After nearly three decades, it’s much more comfortable to return to a perfect state." Yue Guang nodded and said.

Jun Wu Xiao nodded in agreement. Although he had never been blind, he had lost an arm before. That had been extremely inconvenient. Initially, he lost his balance and found it difficult to move at maximum speed. He said:

"If everything is fine now, you should continue cultivating. I also need to continue my cultivation. Who knows how many years it will take to break through to the next realm."

Yue Guang nodded. She had no reason to hold him back. Her relationship with him was special compared to others, but not significantly different. She still had her responsibilities, and now was not the time to rest.

"Alright, go cultivate. Meet me when you’re truly free." Yue Guang said.

"Okay." Jun Wu Xiao replied, then departed.

He continued his relentless cultivation process, spending twenty hours a day, seven days a week, every week of the year. If he worked for a company, he’d surely win the Employee of the Year award every year.

Twenty years later, Jun Wu Xiao felt his body on the verge of a breakthrough. The process was brief and nothing particularly special compared to before. He remarked:

"It seems no different from the Body Refinement Realm and Bone Forging Realm. My overall strength increased by a third, and my internal organs were further enhanced. Ah, considering the time, that guy should have recovered his eyesight by now, right?"

He wasn’t wrong. Not long ago, Dao San Qian had also made a breakthrough and fully recovered, just like Yue Guang.

Jun Wu Xiao rushed over to take a look. Seeing that Dao San Qian was healthy, he thought:

"Good, he’s fine. I’ll continue my cultivation then. I have nothing to talk to him anyway."

Dao San Qian sensed a presence nearby but then it suddenly disappeared. He cursed:

"What does that mean? Coming over to look and then leaving? I bet when Yue Guang recovered, you stayed to chat with her for a while."

Indeed, there was a bit of favoritism here. After all, one was a friend, and the other was a Path companion. The status of who is high and who is low is very clear. As for his younger brother and Feng Shuang, their bodies were perfectly fine, so he didn’t bother to check on them.
