Chapter 55: Mastery
Inside Chen Tian's room, Chen Tian sat in a lotus position on the ground, naked, and his eyes were flashing intensely with lightning.
"The lightning element... I never thought that crystal was one of the missing pieces that I needed," Chen Tian murmured as he looked at both of his hands. With a single thought, lightning appeared in his palms, crackling and pulsing with energy.
Chen Tian's smile widened as he felt the power of the element coursing through his body.
The piece he had been searching for, which would allow him to unlock the power of the Lightning element, had been with him all along.
His intense gaze reflected his excitement as he sat on the bare ground, completely naked.
His joy knew no bounds upon gaining the lightning element, which was one of the elements he had mastered the best.
Cultivators can achieve mastery of various elements, and each element has levels of mastery that are divided into five tiers, with a corresponding percentage for each level.
These tiers are: Element, Dao, Great Dao, Heavenly Dao, and Supreme Dao. It is worth noting that Chen Tian had reached the pinnacle of mastery with the Lightning element, showing that he had attained the highest level of mastery possible with this element.
Chen Tian had reached an advanced level of understanding of the lightning element, which earned him the title "Lightning Sage." He was among a select few individuals who could comprehend the lightning element at the Supreme Dao level.
"Husband?"
As Chen Tian was still savoring the moment, he heard Emilia calling him from behind. He took a deep breath, retracted the lightning in his palms, and looked towards Emilia, who was still asleep on his bed.
Perhaps the thunderous sound startled her and caused her to wake up. She had her eyes half-closed and seemed to be half asleep. It was clear that she was still tired and needed more rest. Chen Tian smiled, happy to see her sleeping peacefully.
He stood up and walked to the bed. He sat by her side and caressed her silky hair.
"Honey, wake up", Chen Tian called out while caressing her silky hair. Emilia was still half asleep when she opened her eyes lazily after Chen Tian called out her name for the second time.
"Don't forget today we have school. Go and wash up. I will make food in the meantime", Chen Tian said lightly.
"But I don't want to go…" Emilia mumbled, still feeling sleepy. Chen Tian chuckled softly and kissed her forehead.
"I know, but we have to. Come on, I'll make your favorite breakfast," he said, helping her up from the bed.
"You will make me pancakes?" Emilia's face lit up with joy as she heard Chen Tian's offer to make her pancakes, which were her favorite breakfast.
Chen Tian smiled and nodded. "Yes, if that is what my wife wants, then I will make it."
With a playful tone, Emilia quickly kissed Chen Tian's lips and said, "Hehe~, I love you."
As Emilia looked happy, Chen Tian felt a sense of warmth and contentment in his heart. He was determined to do everything in his power to keep that smile on her face.
"Then go and wash up; I will prepare them for you." Emilia nodded her head and walked out lazily, feeling grateful to have such a caring and loving husband.
Chen Tian watched her leave with a smile on his face, knowing that he had made the right decision by choosing her.
Chen Tian's day began on a joyful note as he achieved two significant milestones.
He successfully reached the QI refinement realm and unlocked the lightning element, which he had comprehended earlier.
Furthermore, he got himself another beautiful wife, and he felt truly blessed and grateful for all the good things happening in his life.
With this in mind, Chen Tian approached his wardrobe and searched for his school uniform. After finding it, he started wearing it.
Chen Tian, dressed in his uniform, walked out of his room and headed towards the kitchen with the intention of making pancakes for his beloved wife. Upon reaching the kitchen, he noticed Aria and Leng Zhiqing eating breakfast.
"Good morning," Chen Tian greeted them with a smile.
"Hmm. Morning…" Aria responded in an unusually cold tone without looking at him. Leng Zhiqing, on the other hand, did not respond and simply continued eating her food while giving Chen Tian a death glare.
Chen Tian felt awkward seeing their reactions, and while he wasn't particularly surprised by Leng Zhiqing's behavior, he was puzzled by Aria's response.
"What's up with her?" he wondered to himself.
"Mm... I will be making pancakes. Does anyone want?"
Chen Tian explained his plan to make pancakes and asked if Aria and Leng Zhiqing would like to join him.
After exchanging eye contact with each other, both Aria and her sister declined with a cold tone.
"No" x2
"O-Okay" Chen Tian was taken aback.
Chen Tian could feel that both of them were angry with him for some reason, but he couldn't pinpoint why.
Aria never acted like that with him, and for Leng Zhiqing this girl was really a mystery for Chen Tian.
Chen Tian hoped that he could soon figure out what was bothering Aria and Leng Zhiqing. With his keen sense, he could feel that both girls were glaring at him with intense hatred, as if they harbored a strong desire to kill him.
"I probably did something wrong; both of them are acting strangely," Chen Tian exclaimed nervously as he sensed the penetrating gazes of both girls fixed on him.
He paused for a moment, considering his options, before quickly deciding, "Perhaps I should make some extra pancakes."
Like a wise man once said, the best way to fix a problem is through food. Maybe some delicious pancakes will help ease the tension and get everyone talking.
Chen Tian quickly got to work, flipping pancakes and adding toppings like fresh fruit and whipped cream.
It didn't take him much time, as he was not bad at cooking and had already done it many times, so he was able to make the pancakes quickly. However, the atmosphere remained tense, and Chen Tian couldn't help but feel uneasy.
