Yan Huan'er hugged Xing Mei, who kept crying over her son's death, and she felt guilty towards her because Gu Zhan's death was caused by her daughter. Unfortunately, everything has already happened, and he doesn't have the power to turn back time. Xing Mei continued to cry, and her crying became louder and louder. "Sob... my Zhan'er is no longer by my side, Sister Huan'er! What should I do now? Sob... how can I tell my husband that our son is dead now?" "Sister Mei, I really want to apologize to you, especially since this matter happened because of us." Yan Huan'er replied with a heavy sigh. "As for your husband, I know that you must inform him of Zhan'er's death, but I hope you are willing to wait for Brother Tong to return first. They are currently traveling to the northern region to fortify the seal on the demon portal, as failure to do so could result in its destruction and the re-invasion of our realm by demons from other realms. Although she was deeply saddened by her son's death, Xing Mei herself realized the gravity of the matter, so she did not immediately contact Gu Tong for the sake of many people's future. "Sob... If only Zhan'er hadn't attacked Lian'er, he wouldn't have died at the hands of that divine beast. Moreover, that divine beast swallowed him alive, and I can't give him a proper burial." As she hugged Xing Mei tighter, Yan Huan'er spoke to her in a regretful tone. "Lian'er was the one in the wrong in this matter, and Zhan'er wouldn't have attacked her if she hadn't revealed her relationship with Zhang Fei to him." "No." Xing Mei shook her head at Yan Huan'er. "I don't blame Lian'er because I am a woman myself, so I understand her anger and disappointment towards Zhan'er, and I would definitely do the same if my husband cheated on me repeatedly. Furthermore, despite her repeated reminders, he refused to listen and continued his affair. Not only her, but Yan Huan'er herself would also do the same if her husband dared to cheat on her with multiple women. "For the time being, I will stay here to accompany you, Sister Mei." "All right." . . . Meanwhile, Ye Lian didn't return to her clan but went to the Chu Clan instead, and her expression was still filled with regret and guilt over Gu Zhan's death. 'Sigh, I'm such a fool! I should have more control over myself, and if I could, this incident would not have happened.' "Lian'er?" Ye Lian immediately turned to Liu Hua, who was approaching her. "What happened to you? Why is your expression like that?" Ye Lian hugged Liu Hua and sobbed, confusing her with her strange attitude, especially since she was previously fine when she returned from Earth. She explained everything to her right away, including Zhang Fei's decision not to spare Gu Zhan. Liu Hua let out a soft sigh and hugged Ye Lian. "Honestly, you don't need to blame yourself, and we both know that Gu Zhan is indeed arrogant and an idiot. He always acts without thinking about the consequences, so his death was his own fault." "But-" "All right, you don't need to think too much about this matter; we are cultivators, and we have to be responsible for our own lives. Moreover, there are always consequences for all our actions, and Gu Zhan has already borne the consequences for his rash actions." Ye Lian fell silent after hearing that, and Liu Hua then spoke to her again. "I fully support Fei'er's decision, especially since you are his future wife, so it's natural that he wouldn't be willing to spare the person who tried to kill you. If I were in his position, I would definitely take the same decision." Ye Lian sighed softly and released her hug from Liu Hua before wiping her tears. "Where is Fei now?" Liu Hua grabbed Ye Lian's hand and took her away. "Fei was strolling around the city with Zhao Ziqin, but someone disturbed their time together, so we will follow them from a distance." "Zhao Ziqin?" Ye Lian was really surprised after hearing the name. "How could Fei approach her? She always closed herself off due to her introverted character, and she always felt uncomfortable around many people." "Let's go then." . . . "Ziqin, you-" Once Zhang Lingxue landed in front of them, Xuan Yu didn't continue his words, and he instinctively took a step back before greeting her with cupped hands. "I pay my respects to Young Miss Zhang." However, Zhang Lingxue paid him no heed and turned to Zhang Fei with a strange smile, causing him to raise his eyebrows. "Zhao Ziqin, right?" "Huh?" Zhao Ziqin was surprised that Zhang Lingxue knew her, but she was sure that they had never met before. "Who are you, Big Sister? How do you know me?" "I am the owner of that fox." Zhang Lingxue replied, pointing her finger at Zhang Fei. "Aside from that, I know Huan Ning quite well, but she probably hates me so much now, especially after the problems between us in the past." Zhang Fei shook his head slightly after hearing that. 'You dare say that you are my owner, huh? I'll definitely teach you a lesson later!' "Eh?" Zhao Ziqin was even more shocked by Zhang Lingxue's confession. "How can you possibly be Fei's owner, Big Sis? I found him lost in my clan, so I took him in as my pet." "Pft!" Liu Hua and Ye Lian burst into laughter because of Zhao Ziqin's answer, and they glanced at Zhang Fei while smiling strangely, making him feel irritated by their behavior. Zhang Lingxue then took Zhao Ziqin's hand. "Come with me! You don't need to care about this brat from the Xuan Clan; I will protect you if your mother dares to punish you for abandoning him." After Zhang Lingxue and the others took Zhao Ziqin away with them, Xuan Yu's expression became completely gloomy. "Damn it! I didn't expect to meet that vicious woman in this region, and she intends to protect that stupid girl!" After that, Xuan Yu contacted his grandfather directly and informed him about Zhang Lingxue and Zhao Ziqin, but he did not give him an answer straight away, so he decided to return to the Zhao Clan while waiting for his instructions. - To Be Continued - === My other novels 1.
