The old man's words were well understood by the man, yet he was truly unwilling, because someone like that caused so many losses on his side.

The treasure vault was opened, and everything inside was swept clean. Although nothing in there was precious to Luo Chao, to others these were valuable resources.

"No experts? Was I mistaken?" Luo Chao stood in the center of the battlefield, his aura instilling fear in many people.

If they could, they all wanted to stay away from this killing star. Perhaps if he lost his mind in a rage, he might kill them without any means to resist.

The looting was soon completed, Luo Chao found plenty of herbs. His actions along the way were relatively unimpeded, as his intense killing intent and bloody scent made others wary of approaching him.

Those capable of such feats had likely slain countless enemies, marking them as absolute experts here. Competing with such a master required careful consideration of one's own abilities.

Without the strength to contest, was there any hope of survival?

"I've gathered enough things and got the herbs, it's time to return." After the battle, Luo Chao felt a need to train himself further.

While the matters at Xinyuan Sect were unfolding, at Jiang Yuanyuan's villa, three women were sitting together, evidently discussing something.

"What do you think about Luo Chao's situation?" Jiang Yuanyuan asked bluntly.

The two women remained silent, none of them expected Jiang Yuanyuan to be so direct.

What to do? What could be done? The events had already occurred, blaming Luo Chao was clearly not a good idea. However, letting him continue this way was certainly not a good prospect.

"What was supposed to happen has happened; this life is what it is. Moreover, he is a cultivator and cannot be judged by mundane standards."

Chen Xiaoqi said helplessly, knowing she could never fall in love with another man.

"I agree, now that there's a child, it's too late to regret." Mao Zhonghua said, caressing her belly.

Despite many advising her to abort the child, she refused. A child was a life, after all, and aborting it would make her a murderer, wouldn't it?

Jiang Yuanyuan also wanted Mao Zhonghua to abort the child, and after that, find her a better match; but now that seemed impossible.

Moreover, it's not just these people, Luo Chao and Zhong Liu's relationship was also quite good. Zhong Liu was openly affectionate with Luo Chao. She hadn't been seen around lately, though.

It was heard she was taken by some significant figure.

"Taken by a significant figure?" Chen Xiaoqi was stunned. She initially thought Zhong Liu might really be in love with Luo Chao.

If their relationship had developed to that extent, Zhong Liu could still be accepted.

But now, no one expected her to find a sugar daddy. She came from a poor family and had nothing remarkable besides her learning talent and appearance.

Yet someone like her had been taken by a wealthy old man and hadn't returned since. What else could it be?

"Perhaps that old man is Zhong Liu's long-lost father, and there's a tragic story behind it all," Mao Zhonghua said calmly.

If that were the case, it would indeed be forgivable.

"Mao Mao, you are still too naive. Fairy tales don't happen frequently. It's more likely that Zhong Liu's family couldn't withstand the pressure and arranged her with a wealthy old man," Jiang Yuanyuan remarked with a big heart.

Mao Zhonghua said nothing, even she didn't believe her own words. But if that girl indeed sought refuge with an older man, clearly it was impossible for her to love Luo Chao.

"Forget it, if that woman doesn't love Luo Chao, it doesn't matter what happens, why should we care?" Mao Zhonghua said speechlessly.

Now that things were this way, they were all resolved; there were no questions left. As for Luo Chao, he could do however he pleased.

"I need to rest, goodnight sisters," Mao Zhonghua felt increasingly fatigued and had a lingering desire to sleep.

"Go ahead, take care of yourself, Mao Mao," Jiang Yuanyuan said generously. Fortunately, Uncle Yuan was not home today, or she wouldn't have dared to speak like this.

"Sister, look at us — Mao Zhonghua and I have already had experiences like this, you're not young anymore, and that wife's position should be yours, time's ripe for..."

Chen Xiaoqi whispered in Jiang Yuanyuan's ear, causing her to shudder in surprise. This young girl actually suggested such a thing.

"No way, I totally oppose it! If you like it, you go, but I won't," Jiang Yuanyuan said shyly, burying herself under the blanket.

"Luo Chao, you are back." Chen Xiaoqi suddenly said.

Her words made Jiang Yuanyuan jump out. Luo Chao was indeed back, without even a phone call. Her previous actions had made her clothes and hair messy, so she needed to tidy up.

"Messed up?"

Seeing Chen Xiaoqi's smiling face, Jiang Yuanyuan was incredulous. This young girl even dared to tease her, utterly unrestrained.

"Spare me, sister, I won't dare again," Chen Xiaoqi and Jiang Yuanyuan played around until they were exhausted and fell asleep.

Uncle Yuan didn't come over; at the moment, the villa was no longer suitable for him, with the son-in-law present — anything was possible.

Although Luo Chao used to be present here, he didn't have the kind of relationship with her now confirmed, like fuel and fire, with young people so open today, it was indeed inappropriate for him to stay.

"Go visit the Chen Family." Jiang Weidong finally said after pondering. Chen Xiaoqi was the only daughter of the Chen Family, excessively spoiled since childhood, and the family would never let her suffer any grievances.

"Yes!" Since Jiang Weidong wanted to visit the Chen Family, Uncle Yuan, as the steward, certainly had to prepare everything properly.

The patriarch of the Chen Family saw the car stopping and directly came to greet them. This car belonged to Jiang Weidong, and the visit had been scheduled beforehand.

Moreover, his daughter and Jiang Weidong's daughter had fallen in love with the same person. However, the two didn't fight like others might have over it.
