Cha Eun-sang was very happy after leaving the TV station; she didn't have to work part-time, wouldn't get home late, no longer had to face a bleak life, and most importantly, the person accompanying her.
"Thank you, Lee Yeong, for caring for me, protecting me, and doing so much for me…"
Lee Yeong felt a bit helpless. From delivering breakfast in the morning to leaving the TV station, Cha Eun-sang had thanked him more than thirty times. So, he said to Cha Eun-sang:
"Eun-sang, do you really want to thank me?"
Cha Eun-sang replied, "Yes," without thinking, but when she looked up, she saw Lee Yeong leaning his face towards her, a meaningful, mischievous smile on his lips. Cha Eun-sang's face instantly flushed. Having watched plenty of dramas, she naturally understood, but it was precisely because she knew that she felt even shyer.
"Then… I'll go inside first." But she turned back and stopped, quickly kissing Lee Yeong on the lips like lightning, then rushing back into her house and closing the door. Lee Yeong was also stunned. His original intention was to tease Cha Eun-sang, but he didn't expect to receive such a big surprise before going home…
…
Yoon Ji-woo had been at Lee Yeong's house all day. Because she had been treated by the Dao of Reversal, she didn't need much recuperation. She had originally planned to seek Choi Mu-jin's help again, but after witnessing Lee Yeong's strangeness, she ultimately chose to stay here. As long as she could find the murderer and avenge her father, even if it meant associating with a devil, she would spare no effort!
"It seems you weren't foolish enough to choose to leave. Aren't you afraid?" Lee Yeong returned home with various ingredients he bought from the supermarket. As he expected, Yoon Ji-woo hadn't left and was sitting on the steps outside the door, waiting for him.
"Come inside. Since I promised to tell you what you want to know, I won't lie to you!"
"Who killed my father?…" As expected, whenever the murderer was mentioned, Yoon Ji-woo became very agitated.
"You've already met that person, Choi Mu-jin."
"Choi Mu-jin? Isn't he the big brother in my dad's gang? Why, why would he kill my father? What evidence do you have?!" Yoon Ji-woo was a bit incredulous. At her father's funeral, he even brought his subordinates to send him off. How could he be the murderer who killed her father?!
"Your father's real name was Song Jun hu. He was… a police officer. Many years ago, he went undercover in the East River Sect under the arrangement of Cha Gi-ho, the current head of the drug enforcement team, using the alias Yoon Dong jun.
Your father was very capable, constantly sending information to the police station over the years, but unfortunately, he was discovered by Choi Mu-jin not long ago. Choi Mu-jin couldn't bear the betrayal, so he personally killed your father, using your father's police gun."
"You can go find Cha Gi-ho. All the information about your father is at his house, and he has a letter your father left for you."
After hearing the truth from Lee Yeong, Yoon Ji-woo was already sobbing uncontrollably. Recalling the words she had said to her father, and the scene of her father being shot and dying before her eyes, filled her with even greater sorrow. Ji Woo swore in her heart that she would kill Choi Mu-jin and avenge her father, no matter the cost.
It is said that hatred can make people crazy, but it can also make them strong. Ji Woo was like this; her father's death became the last straw that broke her sanity. Lee Yeong also saw her intentions and wasn't going to play hard to get with her, so he continued:
"If you want to take revenge on Choi Mu-jin, there are three paths before you."
"The first is to become a police officer like your father. With Cha Gi-ho's help, once you join the drug enforcement team, you can naturally seize the opportunity to bring Choi Mu-jin to justice."
"The second is to forget that Choi Mu-jin killed your father and infiltrate his side. Once he trusts you, there will naturally be many opportunities to kill him."
"The third is for me to help you take revenge, and from now on, you will work for me. This is also why I kept you."
"You can think about it tonight. I hope to hear your decision tomorrow morning!"
After speaking, he no longer wasted time. Today, he finally obtained a cultivation method and witnessed the power of the Demon King. He needed to seize the time to improve his strength. In this chaotic world, variables could appear at any time.
Lee Yeong was unwilling to leave tomorrow to so-called fate; as long as he was strong enough, he could control everything.
Taiji Mysterious Clarity Dao has three major realms: Jade Clarity, Upper Clarity, and Grand Clarity.
Taiji Mysterious Clarity Dao emphasizes perceiving the Dao of Heaven and Earth through oneself, opening all seven orifices and pores of the body, drawing the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth into the body to circulate along the meridians, thereby training and solidifying the body's spiritual energy and internal meridians, achieving the effects of strengthening the body and prolonging life.
When cultivated to a higher realm, one can even harness the power of nature through oneself, borrowing the power of Heaven and Earth to eliminate enemies.
Due to the sign-in, Lee Yeong's pure physical cultivation was equivalent to the peak of Jade Clarity, but he didn't have corresponding cultivation techniques or divine abilities. His soul cultivation was equivalent to the middle stage of Upper Clarity, and by unleashing all his means, he could exert power from the peak of Upper Clarity to the early stage of Grand Clarity.
According to his estimation, to defeat so-called immortals like Sun Wukong, both his realm cultivation and cultivation techniques/divine abilities would need to reach above the middle stage of Grand Clarity.
With a flash, Lee Yeong entered his small world, not just to avoid being disturbed, but more importantly, because the small world was filled with primal energy of Heaven and Earth. The plants previously planted in the small world had grown very well, and now the small world was like a fairy realm. Lee Yeong no longer wasted time and began to cultivate.
The Taiji Mysterious Clarity Dao obtained through system sign-in not only contained cultivation methods for various realms but also sword arts like the Divine Sword Imperial Thunder True Art…
When he came to his senses from cultivation, it was already the next morning. In one night, he had thoroughly stabilized his cultivation at the peak of Jade Clarity, just one step away from entering the Upper Clarity realm, which made Lee Yeong indulge in a bit of self-admiration: "I really am a genius…"
"System, check attributes."

When Lee Yeong pushed open the door and saw that Ji Woo had already prepared a meal, he understood her choice. Since she was willing to stay, Lee Yeong was naturally very satisfied. He was indeed a bit hungry after cultivating all night, so he ate while saying to Ji Woo:
"Do you want me to help you kill Choi Mu-jin, or do you want to take revenge yourself?"
Ji Woo hesitated but ultimately replied, "I want to kill him with my own hands and destroy his East River Sect!"
Lee Yeong had to accompany his girlfriend during the day, so he didn't have much time to teach her. He had originally intended to directly take Ji Woo and wipe out the East River Sect in one fell swoop, but since Ji Woo chose to act herself, Lee Yeong would naturally satisfy her and was also pleased with Ji Woo's choice.
After all, he didn't need a vase; since he kept her, she naturally had to be able to help him.
"Go home and pack your things. From today until a month from now, you will be staying here. I will transform you within a month…"
