Otherworldly-Cultivator

Chapter 409 Ximen Yuqing's Situation

"Meiyi, you are Xiao Guan's reincarnation, so you might not be able to understand my feelings, but I was in despair and devastated after I learned the truth." Lin Qingzhu sighed heavily and looked at her children. "Moreover, I found out the truth too late, and I had already given birth to you. Besides, you still remember how he treated us, right?"

"Well, he's actually not a bad father, and he treats us very well."

"Yes." Lin Qingzhu nodded to her. "At first, I tried to avoid him, and my attitude became a little harsh towards him, but he didn't mind it and kept treating me well. Besides, I also thought about you because you are our daughter, and I wanted you to have a complete family. Moreover, your presence and his tenderness slowly melted my heart, and I became very comfortable with him. Apart from that, you always whined to us that you wanted to have a little sibling, so I didn't hesitate to fulfill his wishes when he wanted a second child."

"Haha." Chen Meiyi laughed softly as she remembered that, and it was because she was jealous of her schoolmates who had a brother.

Chen Li was also aware that Sun Taiyang had treated them well when he was disguised as Chen Zhen, and he had always pampered them. However, his act of pretending to be dead made Lin Qingzhu continue to suffer for years, and he insulted her mother when he talked with his soul imprint. "What will you do if you meet him again, Mom? Are you thinking about getting together with him again?"

"The real and the fake Chen Zhen are dead; he is Sun Taiyang and Yue Huang's husband, so I will never be with him again." Lin Qingzhu answered her son's question with an expression without the slightest hesitation. "Moreover, I'm happy with my current life, especially since I have you two by my side, so I no longer think about him, and I will accompany you both forever."

Chen Li was relieved after he heard her answer, and he hugged Lin Qingzhu tightly. "I'm happy with your answer, Mom. Even though he is my father, I don't want you to think about that impostor anymore, let alone that he has abandoned us and made you suffer for years."

Listening to their conversation, Sun Xing'er couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but she didn't expect that Lin Qingzhu had known about it for so long, and she had such a big heart to accept the truth.

Lin Qingzhu hugged her son back and said to him. "I know you hate Sun Taiyang so much because of his actions and words about me, but no matter what happens, he is your biological father, so I want you to promise me not to kill him."

"Mom-"

"Shh!" Lin Qingzhu covered Chen Li's mouth with her hand and looked into his eyes seriously. "I don't want you to bear bad karma because you killed your father, so please promise me that you will never kill him."

"Li'er, you should listen to our mother, or it will be detrimental to you, and Little Taiyang is one of Emperor Long's loyal followers, so we need his help to deal with those evil cultivators." Chen Meiyi also spoke up to persuade her little brother, and Chen Li turned to her with a frown. "However, you can do other things against him, and I won't stop you from doing whatever it is."

Lin Qingzhu massaged her head after she heard that, and she could guess what her son would do to Sun Taiyang in the future, but she chose not to say anything as long as he did not kill his father.

Since she has lived with her half-brother for quite some time, Sun Xing'er could more or less guess what else she would do to her father. 'Sigh! I hope that my brother will not cause my mother any harm, especially since she is unaware of my father's deeds.'

After listening to them, Chen Li ultimately gave in to their persuasion, and he nodded to his mother. "All right, I promise you, Mom. However, he still has to pay a heavy price for his actions towards you, and I will make him feel deep sorrow."

"En." Lin Qingzhu nodded with a sigh of relief. "Anyway, Wei'er and Xianglin are on their way to Chen Hu's old house, and I want you to meet them to save Yuqing."

"Ximen Yuqing?" Chen Li raised his eyebrows. "Why did she return to that house?"

"Chen Hu has returned to this country while you were focused on your training, so Xian'er and I haven't told you about this matter, and he has been scouting our mansion repeatedly." Chen Li looked at her big sister in surprise. "Zhiyi and Tian Qiu had advised him to leave the country to avoid you, but he was too stubborn and insisted on staying in the country, so she probably persuaded her mother to talk to him."

"I see." Chen Li nodded in understanding as he stood up.

However, Lin Qingzhu immediately grabbed his hand. "Li'er, you are getting married tomorrow, so don't wet your hands with blood today. Moreover, you already know that Chen Hu is not my husband's killer, so I hope you don't have to kill him."

"I know I will not commit murder today or tomorrow." Chen Li said as she let go of her mother's hand. "Even though Chen Hu wasn't the murderer of the real Chen Zhen, he had plotted with those people to destroy our family, and Sun Taiyang abandoned us because of that, so I will never forgive him."

"Li'er-" Before Lin Qingzhu could stop him, Chen Li had already left the Tianyi Realm, causing her to sigh heavily.

Chen Meiyi then said this to her mother. "Mom, you don't need to think about Chen Hu, and let Li'er do whatever he wants to him."

"But-"

"No buts." Chen Meiyi interrupted her mother decisively. "I know you want to protect him because he's Chen Zhen's little brother, but his crimes against us are truly unforgivable, and a traitor like him must die, so I will fully support Li'er in killing him."

After she said that, Chen Meiyi flew back to the cultivation cave, and Lin Qingzhu could only sigh heavily because of the attitude of her children. She then looked at Sun Xing'er, who had been silent all this time. "I didn't expect that you were their half sister, but you are also my son's woman."

"Aren't you angry with me?" Sun Xing'er asked in a gentle tone, but she was also anxious.

"Why would I be angry with you?" Lin Qingzhu then pulled Sun Xing'er to sit beside her. "Since your father is solely responsible for that, I am not in the least bit angry with you. Moreover, you've lived with us for quite a while, so I know that you're a good woman."

Instantly, the burden in Sun Xing'er's heart disappeared after hearing that. "Thank you."

"Anyway, tell me about your mother and your realm."

Sun Xing'er smiled and started telling Lin Qingzhu about many things, especially about her mother, and they talked for a long time.

On the bed, the unconscious Ximen Yuqing slowly opened her eyes, but she was shocked to find herself in a strange room. She was even more shocked to find her hands and feet tied to the bed, and her mouth was gagged with a cloth. 'What happened to me? Where am I now?'

Ximen Yuqing tried to remember everything that happened before, and her expression turned ugly after she recalled everything. At first, she went to meet her husband at their old house, but an unknown woman opened the door for her, and she knocked her unconscious before she could ask her.

'Damn it! Who is that woman? Could it be that he has found another new woman?' After all, they had been married for a long time, and Ximen Yuqing knew many things about her husband, including his affairs with several women, but she always turned a blind eye for the sake of their daughter.

*Crack*

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Ximen Yuqing pretended to be asleep again, but her eyes opened slightly to peek at the person who entered the room. Soon, she saw Chen Hu hugging a woman, but he looked quite drunk.

The woman then sat Chen Hu on a chair and glanced at Ximen Yuqing. "What are you going to do to your wife? Are you going to keep her locked up in this hotel?"

"Heh!" Chen Hu snorted and pulled the woman onto his lap. "You don't need to think about her, Shi Mei. I've asked my friends for help to take her out of this city, but they can only do it tonight."

"Do you intend to give your wife to them?" Shi Mei asked with raised eyebrows.

"Yes." Chen Hu answered without hesitation. "That bitch dared to divorce me, so I will teach her a lesson she will never forget for the rest of her life, and they can enjoy her body to their heart's content."

'What!' Ximen Yuqing was truly shocked to hear her husband's answer, and she panicked over her situation. 'Why is he being so cruel to me? He even wants to give me to his bastard friends!'

"Haha." Shi Mei laughed at that. "You are really evil, you know? But I like it; how about we have fun in front of her now?"
