Chapter 108 Shu Yan - The Guardian
Nan Yi sighed heavily as she entered Nan Xinyue's room, seeing her constantly staring at the garden from her bedroom window, and her gaze was blank.
Nan Yi then walked over to Nan Xinyue and placed her favorite breakfast and hot tea on the side table, and she then asked her. "Young miss, are you really in love with Mo Xie?"
However, Nan Xinyue didn't say anything to her, but her expression turned sad upon hearing that.
Nan Yi walked behind Nan Xinyue and massaged her shoulders. "Even though Mo Xie saved you from those people, you don't know him. Moreover, he is a cold-blooded killer, so I think it would be better if you forgot about him."
"Is that so?" Nan Xinyue finally spoke up. "Have you forgotten my parents' profession? Even though I've never killed before, I'm the daughter of two cold-blooded killers."
Nan Yi was speechless to respond, for she naturally remembered all about it. However, Nan Xinyue was different from her parents, so she didn't want her to get close to Chen Li. "Even if you say it like that, Mo Xie already has four women, so I don't think it's appropriate for you to become his fifth woman. Moreover, many men are way better than him, and they already fell in love with you."
Nan Xinyue turned and shook her head at her. "They never fell in love with me, and they only wanted to get me for the sake of getting my father's support."
Nan Yi couldn't help but sigh in her heart upon hearing that. Yet, she also realized that those men only wanted to take advantage of Nan Xinyue's status as the only daughter of Nan Wei. "So what do you want now, Young Miss? Do you still want to be close to Mo Xie?"
"I don't know." Nan Xinyue replied with a shake of her head, took her breakfast, and ate it immediately. "Is my father back yet?"
"Not yet." Nan Yi then explained. "Master is still busy with the Kylin gang, especially after he heard the news about the disappearance of all members of the Green Dragon Gang."
"Huh?" Nan Xinyue looked up at her in surprise. "How could they possibly disappear?"
Nan Yi shook her head. "I don't know about that, Young Miss. However, they have been missing for the past two days, and no one has been able to find them, including their families."
Nan Xinyue frowned and thought for a while, and then she asked again. "Do you think the disappearance of that gang has something to do with Mo Xie? Could they have a problem with him, so he killed them?"
"I dare not say that for sure." Nan Yi paused briefly before continuing. "Since Mo Xie's appearance, many people have died at his hands, so I think he might have something to do with their disappearance. However, I don't know if they are still alive or have been killed by him."
Nan Xinyue sighed softly. "Tomorrow night, Mo Xie will come to my casino to gamble with Alan, so I will try asking him about it."
"However, you'd better ask Mo Xie very carefully, Young Miss." Nan Yi warned Nan Xinyue sternly. "I'm afraid that he will become your enemy if you talk to him wrongly."
"I know." Nan Xinyue replied with a nod of approval.

Meanwhile, something rapidly moved into the Earth's atmosphere, but its movement was inconsistent, like repeated teleportation.
However, just as it was entering Earth, an old woman suddenly intercepted it, and she was surprised to see a silver fox with an asterisk on its forehead. "A star fox?"
Soon, the silver fox turned into a woman and looked at the old woman in astonishment, and she then asked her. "Are you a member of one of those guardian clans? Otherwise, it would be impossible for a strong cultivator like you to live in this Forbidden Land."
The old woman wasn't surprised to hear that, and she turned into a woman with back-length black hair, who looked really sexy in her red dress.
Her face is quite mature and pretty, with two thin black eyes decorated with thick black eyebrows, and her lips look sensual in red lipstick. Her figure is not too tall and curvaceous, and her twin peaks are massive. "My name is Shu Yan, and I come from the Shu Guardian Clan, Miss Star Goddess. The Emperor assigned my clan to maintain peace on this planet, and my ancestors assigned me to assume the task."
"I see." Sun Xing'er nodded in understanding. "Anyway, have you met a silver-haired young male cultivator in this place?"
"Hmm?" Shu Yan raised her eyebrows upon hearing that, and she nodded to her. "A few days ago, that young man came to my shop to buy some herbs, but I still don't understand how an Earthling like him could become a cultivator, especially since there's no Qi left on this planet."
Sun Xing'er repeatedly nodded to her and spread her senses throughout the city. Soon, she smiled broadly after finding Chen Li's location and said to Shu Yan. "In that case, I will see him immediately, for I can't wait to meet my half-brother."
Without waiting for her answer, Sun Xing'er instantly turned into a silver fox again and left the scene, leaving Shu Yan dumbfounded.
Before long, Shu Yan took a deep breath and muttered to herself. "Why did the Star Goddess address that man as her half-brother? Doesn't that mean he is the prince of the Three Realm? But how could that be I'm sure he's an Earthling."
In the end, Shu Yan sighed softly and returned to her old form. "Forget it; it's none of my business. However, suppose that young man continues to kill ordinary humans; I have to stop him, regardless of whether he is a member of the Three Realm or not."

Meanwhile, Chen Li sat before a fat man, no other than Ye Xiao. Even though he was so fat, his body was so tall and even taller than him.
'Tch! He's gotten fatter than the last time I saw him.' Chen Li muttered with a shake of his head, and he said to him. "Brother Ye, I came here on Sister Xiaoxue's recommendation, for I want to renovate a building for my factory. Besides, I also want to build a multi-stroey residence in the area around the factory, and I also want to build a training ground for my workers to exercise later."
Although Chen Li knew the Ye family well, he had no intention of revealing his identity to Ye Xiao, especially since he was a person who could hardly keep secrets.
Moreover, Chen Li also knew that Ye Xiao had quite a close relationship with Long Aotian, so he kept his identity secret so that his enemies wouldn't know that he had returned.
"Hmm?" Ye Xiao didn't immediately answer Chen Li's question and kept observing his face. Soon, he asked him. "Have we met before? I don't recognize your face, but I feel something familiar from you."
Chen Li laughed wryly in his heart upon hearing that, but he then shook his head. "Unfortunately, we have never met before, and I only heard about you from Big Sis Xiaoxue yesterday, Brother Ye."
"I see." Ye Xiao nodded in understanding and laughed. "Haha! Since Xiaoxue recommended you to me, I'll help you with everything, and I won't charge you too much for my services. Anyway, do you have a concept for all your buildings yet?"
Chen Li nodded to him. "I already have my own concept, but I don't know if it can be used or not, so I wanted to consult you first."
"All right." Ye Xiao then got up with difficulty, making Chen Li laugh, seeing him like that, and he then went to another room. "Come with me; you can explain all your concepts to me first. If I find your concepts unworkable, I will improve them using my ideas."
Chen Li immediately followed him into the study and outlined all the concepts. Ye Xiao started making some sketches according to his ideas.
However, after he finished all his sketches, Ye Xiao thought that some of Chen Li's concepts couldn't be used, so he provided some solutions to improve his concepts.
On the other hand, Sun Xing'er was already standing on the tree opposite Ye Xiao's study, and her beautiful silver eyes kept staring at Chen Li's handsome face. "Hehe, I didn't expect to have a half-brother as handsome as him, and his physique also looks stronger than the humans on this planet. However, I didn't expect that he is a dual cultivator and already has at least five women."
After Sun Xing'er waited for quite a while, Chen Li finally left Ye Xiao's house, and she immediately moved to his car to meet him.
"Eh?" Chen Li was surprised to see Sun Xing'er in her silver fox form standing on the hood of his car. However, he was intrigued by the softness of her silver fur, so he picked her up and rubbed her fur. "Where did you come from, little fox? Did you stray to this town?"
However, Sun Xing'er didn't say anything to him; she just wanted to observe Chen Li. She then curled up his arms and closed her eyes, especially since she was exhausted from the long journey and used her technique repeatedly.
Chen Li shook his head to see her asleep, and he took Sun Xing'er away with him.
