Two women were sitting opposite each other in a restaurant, one looking relaxed, the other serious and thoughtful.
"Why did you suddenly ask me to meet, Xianglin? And why is your expression like this? Did something bad happen?"
Xiao Xianglin sighed heavily and replied. "I accidentally passed by a crime scene this morning, so I decided to check it out in person, Wei'er. But unexpectedly, the murder at that place was truly gruesome."
"Hmm?" Chen Wei'er raised her eyebrows at that; she knew about her best friend's superpower and could recreate the scene in her mind. "What did you see in that place? Was that murder so gruesome that it made you like this?"
"It was the most horrific murder I've ever encountered." Xiao Xianglin then told her what she saw after using her superpower.
Chen Wei'er's expression became shocked after she listened to her best friend's explanation. She didn't expect that someone without superpower could commit such a gruesome murder, mainly since that person only used a sword and a gun, and the gun could blow off other people's heads.
Unfortunately, Chen Wei'er still didn't know their killer was her nephew. Although Chen Li didn't have superpowers, he was a cultivator and much stronger than many people with superpowers.
"Whoever killed those people, that person is truly terrible." With a heavy sigh, Chen Wei'er said. "Then what's your next plan? Are you going to join in investigating the murder of those people?"
Xiao Xianglin shook her head and answered hher. "Don't you know the rules of the superpower bureau yourself? Since the killer doesn't have superpowers, I won't interfere in the case and let Luo Zhenhai investigate it."
Chen Wei'er nodded in understanding. "That's good; just let Luo Zhenhai and the others investigate the case."
"Don't you want to return to the bureau, Wei'er? It would be great if we worked together like before again." Xiao Xianglin asked in expectation, she felt burdened to take care of the superpower bureau alone, and she could only rely on Chen Wei'er. Furthermore, she was the former bureau superpower chief before her.
Chen Wei'er's face turned ugly when she heard that, she added. "You know why I resigned in the past, so I will never return to that rotten bureau again. Moreover, it would be best if you also resigned from the bureau since those damn people only use you for their interests."
Hearing that, Xiao Xianglin couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She was aware that the bureau's superpower was rotten and that it was only a tool for the benefit of certain people. Even so, she found it hard to resign from the bureau, especially since those people would get even more out of control if she did.
Chen Wei'er then got up from her seat and spoke one last time. "You already know that, but keep forcing yourself to care for everything. Sooner or later, you will be the one to lose for your decision, Xianglin. So I advise you to resign from the bureau as soon as possible."
After saying that, Chen Wei'er immediately left the restaurant, and Xiao Xianglin could only watch her go with a heavy sigh.

Tianyi Realm - Farm Area
Lin Qingzhu sat on a boulder, observing the animals Chen Li had bought before, as she kept sighing.
"Why are you like this, Mom?" Chen Meiyi asked as she walked over to her mother and sat beside her. "Are you thinking about my relationship with Li'er?"
Lin Qingzhu nodded and turned to her; even if she wasn't a cultivator, she could see that her daughter was already a real woman, making her sad and disappointed. "So you really did it with your little brother?"
"Yes, I have given my virginity to him; it's because I love him so much." Chen Meiyi replied with a nod, then put her arm around her mother's shoulder. "I know it's still hard for you to accept our relationship, but you don't need to overthink it; I can assure you that everything will be fine."
Lin Qingzhu wept in her heart upon hearing her daughter's words. 'I'm sorry, husband. I have failed to be a good mother to our children; they are even in an incestuous relationship now.'
Chen Meiyi sighed in her heart, she knew that her relationship with Chen Li was complicated for a mortal like Lin Qingzhu to accept, and she could only give her time to accept everything. She then pulled Lin Qingzhu up and said. "Let's head out now; we haven't informed Aunt Wei'er about Li'er's return; she will be delighted to hear that he has returned."
After they left the Tianyi Realm, Lin Qingzhu rushed back to her room because she was still angry and disappointed with her daughter, so she didn't want to see her.
As for Chen Meiyi, she immediately called her aunt and returned to her room afterward.

Meanwhile, Chen Li was leisurely walking towards a specific place, and when he got there, he saw three muscular men drunk.
'These bastards! Since you guys helped them capture me that night, don't blame me.' Chen Li muttered to himself; he then took off his necklace and turned it into a golden dagger, and he slowly approached them.
After he arrived behind one of the men, he immediately covered his mouth with his hands and stabbed him in the neck with his golden dagger.
'Ugh!' Since the man was in a drunken state, he was helpless against Chen Li's action, and his body twitched several times until he breathed his last breathe.
Afterward, Chen Li pulled his golden dagger from the man's neck and approached the other two men.
*Crack*
Chen Li accidentally steps on a bottle, startling them, and one of the two men shouts at him. "Who are you!? What are you doing here?"
The other man also turned to Chen Li and picked up the bottle beside him, then pointed it at Chen Li and shouted at him. "Get out of here, or we'll beat you up!"
"Heh." Chen Li snorted softly and directly attacked the two men. He kicked the man closest to him to the ground, then jumped at the other man and thrust his golden dagger into his neck.
*Splurt*
"Argh!" The man screamed in pain and wanted to attack Chen Li, but he immediately pulled his dagger and kicked him. As the man fell to the ground, he thrust his dagger into his chest. "Ugh!"
The last man was shocked to see that; his body trembled violently, and he tried to get up. Since he was drunk, he lost his balance and fell again. "Who are you exactly? Why are you doing this?"
Chen Li walked over to him with a faint grin as he returned to his old form. "Remember me, now?"
"You-Argh!"
The man had not yet had time to shout at him, but Chen Li had already stepped on him and stabbed his chest with his golden dagger, then he squatted above him and pressed his dagger deeper. "If you want to blame people, then blame yourself for helping them capture me that day."
After the last man died, Chen Li quickly cleaned up the blood on his golden dagger, turned it into a necklace again, and left the place afterward.
