As the group entered the palace, they saw Gene, Noah and Nyra walk out.
Gene's eyes lit up when she saw them. Quickly hopping over to Esme's side, she grabbed her hand and swept a dissatisfied glance at everyone,
"You guys finally stopped cultivating, huh? I thought you weren't going to stop until you reached Supreme Realm. I was so bored—ow, ow, ow! Stop it Granny, it hurts."
Esme didn't let go of her ear and continued twisting it, "You little minx. How many times do I have to tell you to focus on cultivation instead of wasting your time on playing around, huh?"
"I'm sorry, Granny. I'll be serious from now on." Gene looked at her with puppy eyes which made Esme sigh and release her ear.
[If you want to accompany us when we march on the Thunder family, you need to get serious about becoming stronger, little Gene.] She transmitted.
Gene's expression turned solemn when she heard this.
