ch 237 – An Unexpected Discovery; Chasing Away The Best (6)

After his explanation, Ying Ziliang looked very remorseful and continued to say, “I got greedy. I targeted Miss because I wanted to take over the mystical well. Please assign me my punishment, Miss.”

“I will let Yuteng take care of your punishment. Now that you are in the dimension, you will have the opportunity of leaving here one day. But you are not allowed to tell anyone anything about this place.”

“Yes, Miss!”

“Yuteng, lock him up and don’t let him cultivate for a while. At least not until he has appropriately atoned for his sins, perhaps then we will give him another chance!”

“Yes, Young Mistress. I will arrange for that!” Little Yuteng accepted her assignment happily!

“It’s almost day time outside, I should go back. I trust that you can handle this!”

“I got this. You go!”

Day break came right after Cheng Xiao Xiao flashed out. She immediately ordered Yuteng to retrieve all the vines.

VIP VIP VIP VIP!

All the vines were gone in no time, leaving just Cheng Xiao Xiao standing in the middle.

Now that this was all taken care of, she was just about to go back to her room and get some rest when two people appeared in front of her. It was her father Cheng Biyuan and Zhou Jinjiang.

“Xiao Xiao, how did it go?”

“Xiao Xiao, are the mystical beast alright?”

Even though they weren’t part of it, they have been waiting here in case she needed extra help.

They didn’t expect her to reappear after merely four hours. Not only did the vines disappeared, as were all the injured mystical beasts. They were both curious and worried.

“It’s all good. I have put them away for the time being. They just needed some rest and they will be fine!” smiled Cheng Xiao Xiao without elaborating any more.

She looked at Zhou Jinjiang and collected her smile. With a serious tone she said, “Uncle Zhou, I am not going to say anymore, but please help keep this a secret!”

“Xiao Xiao, don’t worry. I think I will be able to do at least that. I won’t tell anyone!” Even though Zhou Jinjiang was both stunned and have so many questions, he also knew that this was not something he could find out.

On top of that, from his perspective, the stronger and more mysterious Cheng Xiao Xiao was the better. After all, his future was now bound with the Cheng’s.

“I trust you, Uncle Zhou!” smiled Cheng Xiao Xiao.

No more words, and nothing else was exchanged. They said goodnights to each other and each retired into their own quarters.

Zhou Jinjiang returned to his own courtyard and there were still torchlights from his main quarter. When he went inside, he found not just his wife but also his concubines were still awake.

“Ye, you are back!”

“Ye, is everything okay?”

“Ye, have a seat and rest!”

The women stood up to greet him. Zhou Jinjiang was surprised and asked, “Didn’t I tell you to go to bed first? Why are you guys still up?”

“Ye, you were still out. How could we sleep? We were worried about you!” Mrs. Zhou pulled him over and seated him in the main seat.

The entire family sat around and madam Na, the youngest of them all, patted her own chest and said, “Ye, it doesn’t seem that the Cheng’s days are very stable either, should we….”

“Shut up!” said Zhou Jinjiang with a darkened face. His stern look brushed over his wife and concubines and he said with a deep voice, “Do not ever bring this up again. Remember, from now on, this is our home. And it will never change, understand?”

“Yes, ye!”

“Ye, we understood!”

“Ye, we know now!”

“We will listen to you, ye!”
