"It's me! Mother! I'm back!" Li Chengshuo, with teary eyes, rushed in and tightly wrapped her arms around Jiang Fengwu.
"You naughty girl! Not coming back for so many years! Do you have any idea how worried we were about you?" Jiang Fengwu, with tears glinting in her eyes, gave Li Chengshuo a hard smack.
"Mother! You're hitting too hard, it hurts," Li Chengshuo cooed.
The resentment in Jiang Fengwu's heart vanished in an instant, and she hurriedly asked, "Are you okay? Does it still hurt?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine, as long as Mother isn't angry with me."
"You little rascal!" Jiang Fengwu instantly knew she had been 'outsmarted.'
Li Zhirui was a bit more composed, saying warmly, "You wanted to come back, so it seems you must have accomplished what you wished."
"Yeah, Yue and Howling Moon both successfully advanced to fourth-rank Spirit Beasts, and I've smoothly broken through to the Golden Core Late Stage. It's just that I still can't find the threshold to Nascent Soul."
