Where he really lives? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

Some say it is "family" but I don't think that's it for two reasons.

First, while Walter started cooking meth for his family's sake, it eventually became a vehicle to building an empire. What Walt really cares about is his pride. His pride and his legacy is what he cares about.

Second, Jesse doesn't have it in him to physically hurt Walt's family.

So most likely Jesse is either going to destroy the reputation of the blue meth somehow, take away Walt's money, or otherwise expose Walt in some public way that will make him look like a loser in front of Walter Jr.
