"I am a little confused about what you are saying, but yes, it did indeed happen the way you said," Ruoran said.
"I was trying to break through to the Saint realm, so I thought I would go to a secluded location and do it. However, once I tried to, I felt like I was gone for a few hours like I had fallen asleep."
"However, it had only been a few minutes from what I could tell. Next thing I know, there's a storm brewing above me, threatening to destroy me."
"It struck not once, but twice. I defended myself the first time, but the second time, the lightning was stronger than me and I was injured," Ruoran said.
"Why didn't you tell anyone?" Alex asked.
"I tried," Ruoran said. "They thought I was making excuses."
"Do they not know about your Dao?" Alex asked.
"No," Ruoran said. "Even I only learned in the last few decades that what I had was a Dao. I don't even know much about it as information on it is hard to find."
