Chapter 388 The Cai Family
After quite a long time, Michael sighed heavily after he saw Mikaela acting like a doll. Even so, he also felt a little relieved, especially since he didn't have to watch one of his kin suffer in purgatory. Besides, her current appearance is not much different from the original, but her body is made of Feng Xian'er's crimson flames.
"Since Mikaela has become your familiar, I will return to my realm now."
Instantly, Feng Xian'er returned to normal before falling unconscious, but Xiao Hei immediately supported her and took her back to Qingshui Mansion.
Michael looked at them for some time before sighing, and he flew away, disappearing into the sky.

Several people were gathered in the living room, but the old man sitting at the end looked furious, especially after their two guests told them several things, and two of them tried to calm him down.
"Brother Luo, have you got any evidence about what Nan Wei did to my sister?"
Luo Zhenhai shook his head at the middle-aged man. "For now, I don't have any evidence about that, Cai Jun. However, my daughter heard this news from Chen Wei'er, and she is currently arranging a DNA test to match Cai Yan's data with Nan Wei's, but it will take some time to do it in detail."
"How did Chen Wei'er know that?" It was a middle-aged woman's turn to ask him.
Luo Yi directly told her. "Aunt Qingshi! She heard everything from Aunt Yue herself."
Hearing that, Su Qingshi let out a heavy sigh. "Back then, we asked Yue about the culprit, but she chose not to tell us, and she preferred to keep everything to herself."
"Perhaps she didn't want to ruin the relationship between the Cai and Nan families, and she was forced to confess everything to Aunt Wei'er because Nan Xinyue came to her in their office."
Su Qingshi nodded in understanding and turned to the old man, who was none other than Cai Minghan. "What are we going to do now, father? Do you want to pick up Yue and Yan'er?"
"I don't know." Cai Minghan answered hoarsely. "After what I did to Yue'er, I don't have the courage to face her and her daughter, and I'm not sure if they will be willing to forgive me, especially Yan'er."
"How about me and Qingshi meet them first, Father?" Cai Jun asked him. "Even though I'm not sure if we can bring them home, we can at least try to persuade them first."
After he thought for some time, Cai Minghan shook his head toward his son and daughter-in-law. "Tomorrow morning, the three of us will go to see Yue'er, and I will talk to her myself. Regardless of whether she is willing to forgive me or not, I must meet and apologize to her."
"All right, we will accompany you to meet Yue." Su Qingshi said with a satisfied smile, especially since she knew that her father-in-law had been thinking about Cai Yue for two decades, but he had never had the courage to meet her.

In the car, Luo Zhenhai asked his daughter. "Why do I feel that you are a little different after you came back from their mansion?"
"Eh?" Luo Yi turned to her father in surprise, and she immediately looked at her own face in the rearview. "Father, I want to tell you something, but I hope you don't tell this to anyone else."
"What do you want to tell me? Why is your expression so serious?"
Luo Yi took a deep breath and began to explain to her father the true identities of Chen Li and the others, including their strengths, and she also told him that she was already a cultivator like them.
*Screech*
Instantly, Luo Zhenhai braked his car and looked at his daughter in shock. "Is that true?"
"I didn't lie to you, Dad." Luo Yi replied with a smile of amusement. "They told Susu and me that we couldn't cultivate on earth, so they took us to a special place to cultivate, and we are already cultivators now."
Even so, Luo Zhenhai still seemed to doubt his daughter's words, as he had only heard of cultivators from stories, but he had never met a real one.
"Let me show you something." Luo Yi immediately opened her hand, and a small green wind wave appeared in her palm. "See? This is my wind qi, but I'm still a novice cultivator now, so my strength is still very weak, and I still have to cultivate harder to become stronger."
Luo Zhenhai nodded repeatedly after he saw that. "That's good; I'm glad you finally have the power to protect yourself, so I can be more at ease now."
"En, you don't need to keep worrying about me, Dad." However, Luo Yi's expression turned sad, confusing Luo Zhenhai.
"Why is your expression like that?"
"Dad, you may not know it, but a cultivator can live a very long time."
"What does that have to do with your sadness?" Luo Zhenhai was even more confused by the sudden change in his daughter's attitude.
Luo Yi sighed and leaned against her father's shoulder. "They told me that you wouldn't be able to become a cultivator like us, as you don't have profound veins, and I was sad because I wanted to live with you longer."
"I see." Luo Zhenhai nodded in understanding and embraced his daughter. "You don't need to be depressed like this; fate determines human life and death. Even if I can become a cultivator, it doesn't guarantee that I can live very long, right?"
"Well, that's true." Luo Yi replied with a nod. "Chen Li told me that he has a way to turn you into cultivators like us, but he still has to wait to get stronger before he can do it."
"If I was destined to be a cultivator, then I would definitely become one, but vice versa, so you don't have to regret it." Lui Yi could only nod to him. "Does this mean you have accepted your feelings for Chen Li?"
"Eh?" Luo Yi looked up at his father in surprise.
"Haha." Luo Zhenhai laughed softly and pinched her cheeks gently. "I raised you by myself after your mother died, so I can understand your feelings very well. Do you think I don't know that you always follow news about Chen Li in secret? Do you think I didn't notice your sadness when he disappeared? Although you didn't show it clearly, I can see you became more relieved after you found out that Mo Xie was him."
"Dad." Luo Yi called out softly with a bashful look, as she didn't expect that her father was always watching her so closely.
"Haha." Luo Zhenhai laughed even louder at his daughter's expression. "Even though Chen Li is younger than you and has many wives, he is probably the best man to be your husband, especially since you both live in the same world now. Moreover, he is powerful, and he will be able to protect you, so I will support you if you really fall in love with him, but the decision is yours alone."
Luo Yi smiled at her father's words. "Even though I like Chen Li, I don't want to rush into becoming his wife, and I will wait for our relationship to improve first."

In a park, Song Susu was sitting opposite Mao Tianxie, and she told him about Nan Wei's matter.
"Did Chen Li intend to kill him?"
Song Susu shook her head at him. "Chen Li already told me that he won't kill Nan Wei, but he will do something about him soon, and he plans to take over his Kylin Gang."
Mao Tianxie frowned after he heard that. "If he takes over the Kylin Gang, his Long Feng Pavilion will become the greatest power in the country, and they will become even more unstoppable, so I have to discuss this with Dugu Bao and Tian Wang."
"Honestly, you don't need to worry about that, Uncle." Mao Tianxie looked at her with a questioning look. "Chen Li could take over this country without having to go to such great lengths, but he doesn't have that big of an ambition. Instead, he united those gangs under the banner of Long Feng Pavilion to maintain the stability of this country, and he also has other goals, but I can't tell you about them."
Hearing that, Mao Tianxie looked suspiciously at his subordinate. "How do you know all this? And how can you be so sure that Chen Li doesn't have such big ambitions?"
"I'm one of them now, and they've told me quite a lot."
"Does that mean they also taught you to become a cultivator?"
"Yes." Song Susu then activated her wood qi, and the plants around them immediately reacted to it, shocking Mo Tianxie greatly. "As you can see, my wood power has changed now, and it is no longer a wood superpower but wood qi, which allows me to control these plants more freely than before."
Mao Tianxie didn't say anything and watched the plants, and some of them even looked like they were alive. After a while, he focused his gaze on Song Susu again, and he asked her. "Why did they suddenly recruit you to be part of them?"
"That's-" Song Susu felt at a loss to answer his question, especially since she herself still had difficulty believing Chen Li's previous confession, but she still told him in the end. "He said he liked me."
