“Hmm?” Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows as he watched Long Jiuxiao walk over to him and his wife.
Huang Rong then asked him. “Did he spy on us on purpose?”
“Maybe so.” Jiang Ming then asked Long Jiuxiao. “How did you know that we came to this city today?”
“I’m sorry, I asked someone to track the location of the two of you.” Both of them frowned after they heard that, but Long Jiuxiao immediately told them. “You guys may not know it yet, but Han Xian and the others were slaughtered by Chen Li.”
“What?” The two screamed in shock after hearing that, and Huang Rong immediately turned on her smartphone. “Husband, Xiaorou sent me a message and asked us to meet them in Tangshan.”
“Tangshan?” The two men turned to her in surprise, and Long Jiuxiao asked her. “Are they really in that city now? I heard from my people that after Chen Li slaughtered them, he went after Qin Gang and the others, so I’m not sure they’re there now.”
Hearing his words, Huang Rong immediately called her daughter, but Jiang Xiaorou obviously ignored her call. So she immediately contacted the others, but no one answered her call.
“How did it go, wife?” Jiang Ming asked with raised eyebrows.
Huang Rong sighed heavily. “No one answered my calls.”
“In that case, it would be better if we went to Tangshan to look for them.” After they agreed, Long Jiuxiao immediately led them out of the airport and headed towards the city.

Meanwhile, Tang Wan had already arrived at the Tang house, but she couldn’t find her father, and the servants said that Old Tang had gone abroad to attend a business meeting.
“Sigh, what should I do now?” Tang Wan wondered to herself as she tried to contact her husband again, but she still couldn’t reach Long Jiuxiao.
Jin Kang could only shake his head and mutter in his heart. ‘Since that man has targeted your family, I firmly believe that you guys will never be able to face him. He is much more ruthless and evil than his wife, and he is much stronger than any superpower possessor.’
In the end, Tang Wan decided to return to Long House, but she continued to feel uneasy about her son’s condition. Besides, her feelings also became messy after he remembered his kiss with Chen Li, especially since she enjoyed their kiss so much.

Elsewhere, Mao Tianxie was sitting together with a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman, and he explained to them about the massacre committed by Chen Li earlier. “I’m sure you two find it hard to believe it, but I’m not lying to you guys. He brutally slaughtered them, and I think the people from the Qin family have also been killed by him by now.”
“Are you really unable to stop Chen Li, Old Tianxie?” The middle-aged man asked him with a dark face, especially since the matter was very serious.
Mao Tianxie shook his head at him. “Cao Zheng, I don’t know how he did it, but Chen Li already knows about my superpower, and he is very confident that he can defeat me easily. Besides, he also knows about my subordinates’ superpowers, so I doubt that we can stop him.”
“Isn’t that impossible?” The middle-aged woman finally spoke as she looked at Mao Tianxie with disbelief. “We rarely appear in public, so no outsiders should know about our superpowers; even Huang Tian doesn’t know anything about our abilities.”
“I don’t have an answer for that, Sha Ling.” Mao Tianxie replied with a heavy sigh. “However, we must immediately take care of this matter, especially since Chen Li also massacred their families, and the public will definitely panic once they learn about this news tomorrow morning.”
“You’re right.” Cao Zheng then ordered several people to take care of those people’s corpses asap, but he was aware that it would be impossible for them to hide it from the public, especially since the number of Chen Li’s victims was too large, so he had to rack his brains to find a solution to solve the problem.
Sha Ling asked them. “So what are we going to do about the Long Feng Pavilion? After those four gangs joined them, they are now the strongest organization in this city, so we can’t let them continue to develop, or they will become a threat to our government.”
Both men nodded in agreement with that, but Mao Tianxie said it straight to her. “However, it would be better if we didn’t disturb the Long Feng Pavilion for now; tonight’s incident made me realize that Chen Li is the real leader of that group, or else we would be facing him head-on, especially since Chen Wei’er is his aunt. Besides, I’m not confident that we can face Xuanyuan Wan’er even if we join forces to stop her, and I’m also sure that they are all cultivators like him.”
“You are right, Old Tianxie.” Cao Zheng replied with an affirmative nod. “Since they are all cultivators, we have to be careful in dealing with them, or we ourselves will suffer losses. In that case, I will contact the other two right now, and we will determine our next steps after they return to this country.”
“I agree with that.” Sha Ling then said. “Even though they are cultivators, I don’t believe that they can take on the five of us at once, plus we still have our subordinates, and they are also very strong.”
Unlike her, Mao Tianxie did not have the confidence to face Chen Li and the others, especially since he had witnessed his cruelty himself.

After Chen Li told them everything, Lin Qingzhu immediately pulled her son into her room, and they lay side by side on the bed as she hugged him tightly. “Li’er, I know you are strong, but I hope you don’t continue to fight with them on your own, and you can ask Xing’er and the others to help you deal with them.”
“I know you’re worried about me, but trust me, okay?” Chen Li replied and hugged her mother back. “I know my limits for sure, and I will definitely ask for their help if I really can’t face those people by myself.”
Hearing that, Lin Qingzhu looked up at him and said in a serious tone. “I’m really afraid something will happen to you, so promise me that you will ask them for help.”
“I promise.” Chen Li then kissed his mother’s forehead. “So you don’t have to worry anymore, okay?”
“No, I can’t do it.” Lin Qingzhu shook her head at him and immediately buried her face in her son’s chest. “You are my only son, so no matter how strong you are, I will always worry about you, for I’m really afraid of losing you.”
Chen Li could only sigh in resignation in his heart, but he knew that his mother loved him very much. “Anyway, I’ll take you all to the Seven Moon Realm tomorrow, and you can start learning how to fight with the beasts there, so you can protect yourselves when I’m not by your side.”
“En.” Lin Qingzhu nodded to him. “Even though I’m still not used to such a life, I’m also a cultivator now, so I will familiarize myself with the life of a cultivator. That way I can protect myself, and I won’t be a burden to you.”
“You’re wrong about that, Mom.” Chen Li then raised Lin Qingzhu’s face to face him and looked at her with a smile. “You are my mother, and you will never be a burden to me. Like you, I also don’t want to lose you, so I will continue to protect you to ensure your safety.”
Hearing that, Lin Qingzhu cupped and rubbed her son’s cheeks. “I’m really happy to see you like this, Li’er. Back then, you couldn’t even protect yourself, but you have now become very reliable.”
Chen Li held her mother’s hand on his cheeks and replied to her. “Even so, I am still not satisfied with my current strength, and I will continue to improve myself; only then will I be able to truly protect you all from all dangers.”
“En, I believe in you.” Lin Qingzhu immediately let go of her son. “Anyway, Hanyue and Hanxue have already told us that you can remember your memories, and they have been waiting for you, so you can meet them now.”
Chen Li immediately kissed his mother’s forehead and cheeks before he got out of bed and left her room, and Lin Qingzhu continued to stare at the door as she smiled to herself. “Husband, I’m sure you would be very happy if you saw our son now.”

As soon as Chen Li entered their room, the Dongfang Twins immediately pulled him to lie down on the bed. They then lay on both sides of him and hugged him tightly.
Chen Li smiled happily, seeing them like that, and hugged them back. “Are you guys still thinking about that place?”
They nodded to him, and Dongfang Hanxue said. “After all, we’ve spent a lot of time on that small hill in the past, but it’s destroyed now, and I feel very sad.”
“Me too.” Dongfang Hanyue said. “Even though you have regained your memories, that place is very precious to us.”
Chen Li sighed and kissed their lips alternately. “You don’t need to think about it anymore, and everything will remain in our memories for the rest of our lives.”
