Chen Wei’er answered Guan Yu’s question right away. “Bei Qiang was infatuated with Xian’er, and he asked them to help him beat my nephew almost to death.”
They sighed after hearing that, and Zhuang Liang said. “Back then, Long Jiuxiao and the others did that to Chen Zhen, and their children did such things to Chen Li too.”
“Li’er’s targets are only those people, and he will never do anything to other people who have no faults with him and our family, so I hope you guys don’t interfere with the problems between us.” Chao Yi and the others nodded in understanding at Chen Wei’er. “As for our reason for uniting those gangs, we just want to tidy up the order in this city, which has fallen apart because of their actions. However, we have no interest in joining the power struggle, so you don’t need to think about us.”
Chao Yi then told them. “You guys may not know it yet, but the government has summoned us to gather to discuss Chen Li’s problem tonight, and they will probably take action regarding his brutal actions last night.”
“Hmm?” The three women raised their eyebrows after hearing that, and Xiao Xianglin said to them. “Since you guys will also be attending the meeting, I hope you can persuade them to cancel their plans, or they themselves will bear the losses.”
“Are you sure that you guys can fight them?” Wang Yu, who had been silent for a long time, finally asked them. “Mao Tianxie and the others are very strong, and they will move together if the government decides to take action against Chen Li.”
“If Mao Tianxie was that strong, he should have stopped Li’er last night, right? Yet, he didn’t dare do anything to my nephew, and he decided to let him go. Even if Cao Sheng, Sha Ling, Song Zijun, and Mu Ye also move to attack us, we will not be afraid to fight them.” Chen Wei’er casually replied to his question. “Moreover, they don’t know our true strengths, and we still have Xuanyuan Wan’er by our side; I’m sure they still remember the horror she gave them in the past. If the government insists on waging a war against us, then we will accept their challenge.”
Hearing the latter’s name, Wang Yu and the others took a deep breath, especially since they knew for sure the horror of the massacre that Xuanyuan Wan’er committed in the past, and her actions against Qin Feng were also still fresh in their memories.
Zhuang Liang then asked Chen Wei’er. “Anyway, are you guys really not willing to teach us to become cultivators?”
“Like I said before, we have no obligation to teach anyone else to become cultivators like us. Even if you try to talk to Li’er directly, I dare to guarantee that he won’t be willing to teach you.” Chen Wei’er unhesitatingly rejected him, which made them sigh helplessly.
After that, the people got up to leave the room, and Chao Yi spoke to them one last time. “In that case, we will leave now, and we will try to persuade the government not to do anything against Chen Li. However, we cannot promise you anything, especially since the number of his enemies is not small, and they will try hard to convince the government.”
“I know.”
When they were about to leave, Xiao Xianglin immediately stopped Xiao Yang. “Grandpa, you can stay here first, and I will take you somewhere else after this.”
In the end, Xiao Yang didn’t follow his friends, and the others disappointedly and jealously left the room, especially since they were sure that Xiao Xianglin wanted to teach his grandfather to become a cultivator. 𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈
After they left, Xiao Xianglin immediately explained it to Xiao Yang. “Grandpa, we are not willing to teach them to become cultivators like us because they cannot cultivate here, and we can only do it in Chen Li’s special place, so we are sure that he will never be willing to take them to that place, especially since he doesn’t have any relationship with them.”
“I see.” Xiao Yang nodded in understanding. “So how do we get there?”
“Hehe, that’s a very easy thing.” Xiao Xianglin answered as she stood up; she then grabbed Xiao Yang’s shoulder and said to him. “I will take you there now, and I will also take my grandmother there later.”
Before Xiao Yang could ask her, Xiao Xianglin had brought her grandfather into Tianyi Realm, and she took him to the cultivation cave area to teach him how to cultivate.
Chen Wei’er turned to Yan Qiu and told her. “If you want to become a cultivator like us, then the first thing you have to do is convince Li’er to accept you, and he will definitely teach you to become one.”
“I know.” Yan Qiu answered with a nod. “However, Chen Li is too busy now, and we rarely see each other, so how can I convince him?”
“Be patient.” Chen Wei’er could only say that to her. “After his problems are resolved, he will definitely have a lot of free time, and you can prove to him that you are worthy of being by his side.”
Hearing that, Yan Qiu could only sigh and nod at her. “All right, I will wait until all of Chen Li’s problems are resolved.”
*Crack*
Suddenly, Yun Mingyue walked into their room, especially since the Long Feng Security Company and Chen Li’s pharmaceutical factory had offices in the same building, and she asked Chen Wei’er. “Why did those people come here? Do they want to arrest Li’er?”
“No.” Chen Wei’er answered by shaking her head, and she explained it to her. “Mao Tianxie deliberately spread the news about us as cultivators to those people, so they came here to ask us to teach them to become ones.”
“Even so, Li’er couldn’t possibly be willing to teach them, right?” Chen Wei’er nodded to her, and Yun Mingyue asked her again. “So what action do you think they will take against him?”
“I don’t know.” Chen Wei’er replied with a heavy sigh. “I hope the government doesn’t think foolishly by deciding to attack Li’er, or more people will die at his hands.”
“That’s true.” Yun Mingyue agreed with her words. “Now, this city is in great chaos after news of the massacre spread to the public, and it will become even more chaotic if the government decides to attack Li’er.”
Chen Wei’er could only nod to her. “So when will the pharmaceutical factory start operating?”
“Wen Xia is training the people to run all the machines properly, and the factory will start operating in a few days.” Yun Mingyue then told her. “Anyway, I asked Cai Yue to start work tomorrow, and she will be the receptionist for both companies.”
“Then what about Mu Qing?”
Yun Mingyue answered her question right away. “Mu Qing is at the factory now, and she wants to discuss Chen Li’s products with Wen Xia, so she can prepare appropriate steps for marketing those products later.”

Meanwhile, Chen Li and Lin Qingzhu were at a jewelry shop, and it was the shop where he sold Song Tianyi’s gold bars before.
Seeing their closeness, the owner asked her. “What is your relationship with this young man, Sister Qingzhu?”
“Haha.” Lin Qingzhu laughed softly and told him. “Brother Xu, you may not recognize him now, but he is my son.”
“Eh?” Sun Xu was surprised to hear that, and he looked at him seriously. “Are you really Chen Li?”
“Yes.” Chen Li then apologetically said to him. “Uncle Xu, I’m sorry that I didn’t introduce myself to you before, but I have my own reasons for that.”
“It’s fine.” Sun Xu then asked them. “So why did you guys come here today? Do you want to sell gold bars again?”
“No, we came for something else.” Lin Qingzhu then explained it to him. “Li’er wants to marry Xian’er, so we came here to look for wedding rings, and I’m sure you have the best rings.”
“Of course! I have the best ring for a girl like Feng Xian’er, and I’m sure she will really like it.” Sun Xu immediately left them to look for it, but he soon returned and carried a jewelry box, and he immediately showed them the jewel in it. “You two definitely recognize it, right?”
“A red diamond, huh?” Chen Li muttered softly as he nodded repeatedly. “You are indeed right, Uncle Xu. This red diamond is very suitable for Xian’er, and she will definitely like it very much.”
Lin Qingzhu also felt that a red diamond was really suitable for the fiery Feng Xian’er, but she certainly also knew that its price was very expensive, especially since it was very rare. “How many carats is this red diamond?”
“Three carats, and the price is four million US dollars.”
Lin Qingzhu instantly gawked as soon as she heard the price, but Chen Li didn’t care about it at all, especially since he had earned a lot of money from the auction in Hong Kong before, and he felt that there was no other jewel that was more suitable for his wife. “Uncle Xu, I don’t care about the price, and I want you to use this red diamond to make the best ring for Xian’er.”
“Leave it to me.” Sun Xu replied with a satisfied smile. “The fathers of both of you are my good friends, so I will definitely make the best wedding ring for Xian’er.”
