Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School

Leng Shaoting knew it as well, so he became more worried after hearing Shangguan Yang's explanation. "What should we do now?" he asked.

"We truly can do nothing about it. It depends on her now. I can see she's breathing steadily. I don't think she just broke into the next level, but the thunder..." Shangguan Yang was confused too. Although he couldn't feel Gu Ning's level, he could feel her breath.

Gu Ning was breathing normally now, and she didn't seem weak at all after going to the next level.

However, it was hard to tell because Gu Ning was different from other cultivators. She had the Blood of the Phoenix in her body, so everything was possible. Shangguan Yang knew a little about the Blood of the Phoenix, so he couldn't guess correctly.

After avoiding heavenly thunder a few times, Gu Ning gathered a touch of magical energy. When the heavenly thunder was about to hit her again, she used the magical energy to fight back.

The second the magical energy hit the heavenly thunder, it produced a great shock and Gu Ning backed up several steps from the force.

"Ningning."

"Ningning!"

Leng Shaoting and Shangguan Yang called her worriedly, but they still could do nothing about it.

After being shaken by the force, Gu Ning suddenly felt the magical power moving around randomly inside her body, which meant she was going to the next level again, but it wasn't good news at this moment. Given the dangerous situation she was in right now, she couldn't try to break through the barrier at all.

"Stabilize the energy. Lead the thunder and lightning into your body. Break through the barrier."

Right at this time, Gu Ning heard an ancient and old voice in her mind. She was very familiar with it, because it was exactly the voice she had heard when she discovered her special skills. Therefore, Gu Ning stopped thinking too much about it and sat down on the ground. In order to comfort Leng Shaoting and Shangguan Yang, Gu Ning said to them beforehand, "Don't worry about me. I can handle it. Go to check your mother's condition now."

The next second, Gu Ning sat motionless.

Hearing that, although Leng Shaoting and Shangguan Yang were still worried, they were a lot more relaxed.

Because of Gu Ning's reminder, they realized that Jing Yunyao was seriously injured. Therefore, Leng Shaoting and Shangguan Yang ran to Jing Yunyao at once, but Leng Shaoting still turned around to look at Gu Ning with concern once in a while.

After reaching Jing Yunyao, Shangguan Yang immediately treated her.

Jing Yunyao had passed the lightning tribulation, but she was badly injured and it might take a long time for her to recover afterwards. Anyway, her life wasn't in danger, which was the best result.

Gu Ning didn't avoid it, so the lightning directly hit her.

At this moment, Leng Shaoting was so nervous that he could barely breathe. Even if Gu Ning said she could handle it, he was still affected watching Gu Ning hit by the lightning.

What if something terrible happened to her?

Leng Shaoting's whole body was trembling.

However, when the lightning hit Gu Ning's body, nothing terrible happened. Strangely, the lightning disappeared the second it touched Gu Ning and she wasn't affected at all.

That scene amazed Leng Shaoting, but he felt relieved when he saw Gu Ning was fine.

Shangguan Yang was busy treating Jing Yunyao's injuries, so he didn't see that scene.

The flash disappeared because it was absorbed by Gu Ning's body and Gu Ning led it to hit the barrier to the next level.

The heavenly thunder was unbelievably powerful, so the barrier shook after it was hit once. Before long, the thunder came again and shook the barrier heavily. When it came for the third time, the barrier was broken. At this time, the thunder stopped coming.

Leng Shaoting didn't know that Gu Ning was using heavenly thunder to break the barrier, but he was relaxed when the thunder stopped and the clouds dispersed in the sky.

Jing Yunyao wasn't in a stable condition yet and Gu Ning still sat there. Leng Shaoting was worried, but he didn't dare to move in case he bothered her.

Gu Ning broke the barrier, but didn't totally break through it because no thunder came again. She could only rely on her own magical energy. Luckily, because the barrier was already broken, it was much easier to break it.

Within seconds, Gu Ning broke through it.

After that, Gu Ning made great progress once more. She didn't use much magical energy, so she didn't feel tired at all. Instead, she was full of energy.

Before long, Gu Ning recovered and opened her eyes.

Seeing that, Leng Shaoting was thrilled and ran to her at once. "Ningning, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Gu Ning smiled. "Let's go to see mother now!"

Gu Ning didn't tell Leng Shaoting that she made it to the next level again, because Jing Yunyao was under treatment now. They should care more about her injuries.

Without delay, they went over.

Shangguan Yang was dealing with Jing Yunyao's wounds and they only watched from the side because they couldn't bother them at this key moment.

After Shangguan Yang's treatment, Jing Yunyao's pale face gradually became ruddy as her breath grew much steadier. However, because she was seriously injured, she couldn't heal with only the help of magical energy.

When it was almost done, Shangguan Yang stopped.

"Thank you so much, Senior Shangguan." Jing Yunyao thanked Shangguan Yang. Although she was still weak, her life wasn't in danger. She could recover after resting for half a month.

"You don't need to say that. We're a family after all," said Shangguan Yang kindly. Although he wasn't very familiar with Jing Yunyao yet, they were kind of a family because of Leng Shaoting, so Jing Yunyao didn't need to take him as an outsider.

After that, JIng Yunyao turned to ask Gu Ning, "Ningning, are you alright?"

"I'm fine." Gu Ning said with a smile, "Um, I have good news."

"What is it?" Leng Shaoting asked in a hurry.

"Did you get to the next level again?" Shangguan Yang guessed. That was the only good news he could think of right now, and he had the same guess just then.

Gu Ning wasn't surprised by Shangguan Yang's guess, and her mood wasn't affected at all.

Hearing Shangguan Yang's words, both Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyao showed happiness.

"Yeah, I did. I just sat there still and absorbed the lightning into my body. I led them and broke the barrier within minutes," said Gu Ning.

Hearing that, all of them were amazed. It was the first time that they had heard that a cultivator was able to absorb heavenly thunder into the body.

Shangguan Yang guessed correctly that Gu Ning had made it to the next level again, but he thought it happened before she was hit by the heavenly thunder. To his surprise, he was wrong.
