Tang Haoran had grown quickly over the past two years. Although he hadn't even started middle school yet, he was already around 1.6 meters tall. He lunged forward and threw his arms around Xia Ruofei in a tight, affectionate hug.
Xia Ruofei smiled, happily patting the boy's back. "We haven't seen each other in over half a year. You're growing into a fine young man, little Haoran!"
Actually, the moment Tang Haoran walked through the door, Xia Ruofei's mental strength had already swept over him, giving him a clear view of the boy's current cultivation. He was delighted to confirm that little Haoran had indeed broken through to the Golden core stage. When he first heard the news, Ruofei had been slightly worried. After all, the boy didn't have a master constantly guiding him, and it was hard to tell exactly how his cultivation was progressing. Ruofei even feared the boy might have misjudged his own progress and hadn't actually reached the Jindan expert level at all.
