"What's your name?"
"Feng Xiao."
"What is your relationship with the Feng Clan?"
Tang Xiao ordered Xiao Ai to contact Tang Yuan, asking her to inform Feng Yao of his conversation with Wang Fuxi. "In fact, my parents passed away long ago, and I chose to live in the outside world rather than with my clan. In this place, I can live safely and peacefully without conflict with other cultivators."
Wang Fuxi observed Tang Xiao's expression, but she felt doubtful whether he was being honest or not.
Tang Xiao was naturally aware that Wang Fuxi would not believe him just like that. "Senior, you must have never experienced what it's like to live without parents, right? The vast majority of my clan's people are indeed good, especially our patriarch and matriarch. However, many of our clan members sneer behind my back because I don't have parents, and I can't stand to hear their sneers, so I decided to stay in the outside world."
[Master, I already informed Aunt Yuan about Wang Fuxi's arrival, and she immediately conveyed your message to Feng Yao.]
'Thank you, Xiao Ai.' Tang Xiao continued. "If you don't believe me, you can ask Young Miss Feng about this matter so you can prove whether I'm lying to you or not."
Wang Fuxi contacted Feng Yao, but she didn't answer her because she was too lazy to keep in touch with her, especially after the previous incident. "What is your relationship with the two women inside?"
"Weren't you peeping on us having sex earlier, Senior? So, you should already know about my relationship with them, right?" Wang Fuxi put on a straight face after Tang Xiao asked that, but she cursed in her heart for his shamelessness. "Ouyang Qing is my lover, and we're used to having sex, but this is the first time someone has peeped on us."
Wang Fuxi looked at Tang Xiao with narrowed eyes, but he acted nonchalant because she would never know his disguise. "You are a cultivator, but you are in a relationship with an ordinary woman without cultivation veins."
"Is there something strange about my choice?"
"Nothing strange."
"Haha." Tang Xiao softly laughed. "Qing'er can't cultivate because she was born without cultivation veins, but I'm not concerned about that. What's important is that we care and love each other, and I will accompany her until she dies of old age."
"What will you do if the girl dies of old age?"
"Why should I think about something that hasn't happened yet, Senior?" Tang Xiao responded to her with a shake of his head. "I may be a cultivator, but no one knows their destiny, and I might die before Qing'er. Cultivators are not immortal, and many dangers threaten us every day, so we could die at any time without being prepared."
Wang Fuxi did not argue with Tang Xiao because she herself realized that she would die one day, especially when her lifespan ran out. "Have you ever seen another cultivator disturbing her family?"
"I don't know anything about that because I've never had any contact with her family." Tang Xiao pointed towards Yi An's room. "However, I heard from Qing'er that her mother had decided to divorce her father, and they came here because her mother wanted to calm herself down."
Wang Fuxi was not surprised to hear this matter because she had seen the divorce documents during her infiltration of the Ouyang House. "You have to protect them because an evil cultivator might target them, and they will suffer if they fall into his hands."
'Evil cultivator, your ass! If you hadn't forbidden Aunt Yuan from interfering in the affairs of ordinary humans, my parents wouldn't have died at the hands of those dead bastards, so you should also be responsible for their deaths.' Tang Xiao was furious with Wang Fuxi after he remembered Tang Yuan's story about her, and he considered using the Heart-Seizing Technique. However, he immediately abandoned his intention because he was afraid that she would discover his action, and she would kill him if that happened. "Qing'er is my lover, and her mother is my future mother-in-law, so I will protect them from that evil cultivator."
Wang Fuxi nodded slightly. "In that case, I'll go right now, and you must protect them."
"I will." Tang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief after Wang Fuxi left. 'You act like a hero, but you let those dead bastards kill my parents, even though they were descendants of cultivators. I'm not your match now, but I will reach your level one day. When that day comes, I will settle accounts with you and Long Yin, and I will make you both pay a heavy price for my parents' deaths.'
Tang Xiao returned to the villa, but he didn't join any of the women, instead stabilizing his cultivation in the living room. He wanted to enter the Primordial Divine Ark to meet Xue Bai, but he realized that Wang Fuxi was still monitoring him with his senses, so he abandoned the idea.

After she left the villa, Wang Fuxi went to Feng Yao's apartment to ask about Tang Xiao.
"Why are you here again?" Wang Fuxi immediately explained the reason for her arrival, but Feng Yao wasn't surprised by it because Tang Yuan had already told her beforehand. "Feng Xiao is indeed a member of my Feng Clan, but I won't explain the details to you. Furthermore, I previously informed you that I have chosen to withdraw from your group, which means I am not obligated to explain my clan's affairs to you. If you want to know about him, you can go to my clan and ask my parents, but I'm sure they won't tell you anything either, as this matter is our internal matter."
Wang Fuxi inwardly sighed. "Are you really going to step down from your position?"
"Why not?" Feng Yao nonchalantly replied. "You also contributed to the death of Tang Xiao's parents by forbidding me and Yuan from saving them, making you one of the sources of this chaos. If you hadn't prevented us from saving them, his parents would never have died, and those people wouldn't have died at his hands."
Wang Fuxi wanted to refute Feng Yao, but not a single word came out of her mouth.
"The late Big Brother Ye was my childhood friend, and I still regret his death to this day. Since you are targeting his son now, I don't want to have a relationship with you anymore." Feng Yao then pointed to the exit. "I think our conversation has ended here, and it's getting late, so I need you to leave my apartment because I want to rest."
Wang Fuxi didn't say anything else and left the apartment, making Feng Yao breathe a sigh of relief and close the door. She walked into the living room and sat on the sofa. "Xiao'er, you have to be careful of that woman, and you must never seek trouble with her before you reach her level."

At dawn, Yi An woke up first and checked her smartphone, but Ouyang Hong still hadn't contacted her. She came out of her room and found Tang Xiao cultivating on the sofa in the living room, and she checked on Ouyang Qing in her room, finding her still fast asleep.
"Why did you wake up so early, Yi'er?"
Yi An smiled and walked over to Tang Xiao. She then sat on his lap, put her arms around his neck, and kissed him. "I don't know what happened with Ouyang Hong, but he already signed our divorce documents. My lawyer has already submitted our divorce documents to the court along with all the evidence of his affair, so I'm sure our divorce process won't take long, and I'll be a free woman soon."
"Isn't that great?" Tang Xiao asked as he moved her hair that fell to her face, tucking it behind her ear. "What are your plans after you divorce your husband?"
"Hmm?" Yi An thought for a moment. "Honestly, I haven't thought of any plans after our divorce, but I might take Qing'er on vacation and have some fun there."
Tang Xiao nodded slightly. "I think it's fine if you go on holiday because you've been busy with a lot of things in the past few years, so your mind will be refreshed, and you can start your new life."
"Do you want to go with us?"
"No." Tang Xiao explained immediately. "Even though we're lovers now, you still have the right to enjoy your life. You should have fun there and spend time with your daughter, especially since you haven't been able to accompany her much in recent years."
Yi An let out a soft sigh and leaned into his chest. "You're right. I haven't been able to fulfill my duties as a mother in recent years, so I need to spend more time with my daughter when I'm free. I won't decide this matter now, and I'll discuss it with Qing'er first. If she agrees, we'll go on vacation for a while, and you can accompany Xing'er while we're gone."
"I think it's good." Tang Xiao laid Yi An down on the sofa, pinned her, and kissed her. "I hope she's willing to go on vacation with you, and I hope you'll be clear-headed again when you get back from vacation."
Yi An nodded to her, wrapping both of her hands around Tang Xiao's neck and both of her legs around his waist. "I'm happy because you always accompany me, Xiao'er."
