"We'll go too." Su Lihe, Lin Suwen, and Su Yanyue also stood up and said. They were a family, and if there was danger, they should face it together.
Bai Lina also stood up, holding Xiao Yu'er in her arms. Although she wasn't a cultivator yet, she was a member of the Su family. She also had a share of responsibility when the Su family was in trouble.
"I'm back!" Su Jinyue walked in from outside.
Everyone looked at Su Jinyue with expressions of surprise on their faces.
"I'm glad you're okay. Where's Yihan?" Lin Suwen finally let go of her worries. Jinyue and the others had been gone all night, and she was worried all night. Fortunately, nothing happened.
"He's back in the army. Second brother, are you and Yingli going to the store?" Su Jinyue looked at Su Yanxi and Qu Yingli, who had already reached the door. It was only a little after five o'clock, so it was a little early to go to the store. Everyone gathered here so early, it seemed like they hadn't slept last night. They must be worried about her.
"We wanted to find you. Now that you're back, we won't be worried anymore. Tell us what happened last night." Su Yanxi and Qu Yingli walked back to the table and sat down.
Su Jinyue also sat down. Seeing everyone looking at her expectantly, she smiled faintly. "Yesterday, when Yihan and I went there, there was a cultivator in the middle to late Jindan stage outside the Medical Valley. He came from the Tianyue Continent with the intention of killing the cultivators on Earth. Earth is short of cultivation resources, but it also has many legendary artifacts, like my Shennong Ding. They believe that cultivators who can cultivate on Earth must have received an opportunity. They kill the Earth cultivator just to obtain his resources."
"So that's how it is."
"If you and Yihan hadn't both been to the Tianyue Continent and improved your strength, we might have been tricked by them this time."
"Those people are so evil. Others have worked so hard to cultivate, but in the end, they are the ones making things difficult for them."
"What did you and Yihan do to that cultivator?"
"Yihan and I went to the teleportation array leading to Earth from Tianyue Continent and re-arranged a defensive formation there. We also re-arranged the formation in the Medical Valley. I've already given two jade tokens to the Great Elder," Su Jinyue said, taking out several jade tokens from her pocket and handing them out to everyone. Aside from the person who set up the formation, anyone else who wanted to enter the formation needed a jade token.
"Will there be no problems with the teleportation array?" Su Lihe asked as he took the jade token. Tianyue Continent was, after all, a world of cultivation, and there were undoubtedly many talented individuals there. While Jin Yue's array formation skills were impressive, there was no guarantee that anyone would be unable to break it.
Su Jinyue nodded. "I've left spiritual monitoring there. As long as anyone comes out, I'll know." She was still very confident in her formation skills, and she had already modified it with the Supreme Technique. Although she couldn't guarantee that no one could break her formation, this was Earth. If cultivators from the Tianyue Continent entered Earth, their strength would be suppressed. Even if she was defeated, she and Yihan would definitely be able to destroy them together.
"That's good." Everyone finally felt relieved.
After receiving a call from Pan Yanqin, Bai Lina went to the teahouse they often visited.
Arriving at the teahouse's private room, Bai Lina knocked on the door and waited for a while. Seeing no one responded, she pushed the door open and walked in.
When he opened the door, he saw Pan Yanqin sitting there, staring out the window, her eyes blank and dazed. He sighed with some heartache, "Yanqin." Love is indeed a tormenting thing. Yesterday, Yanqin was still so bright and lively, but today she seemed to have lost her soul. Just like when she was forced to leave Brother Su, it was the same.
Pan Yanqin turned her head to look at Bai Lina. The moment she saw Bai Lina, her tears flowed uncontrollably, "Nana." She cried almost all night yesterday. Fang Lang was the man she truly loved, and she really didn't want to be separated from him.
Bai Lina walked to Pan Yanqin's side, held her in her arms and patted her back gently, "I know you are upset. If you want to cry, just cry your heart out. After you're done crying, we can let go of the past, okay?" Yanqin's situation was different from hers. Unless Fang Lang was willing to leave the Fang family, given the Fang family's character, they would never agree to Fang Lang marrying Yanqin.
"Nana, why do those families always emphasize matching up? They're already so powerful, why do they still want to find someone powerful?" Pan Yanqin asked tearfully. She really couldn't understand: was power really that important?
"Maybe that's just the way it works," Bai Lina shook her head helplessly. Born into a large family, she understood the power struggles within them all the more clearly. Every family wanted to be the strongest, and only by being the strongest could they have the final say.
Children born in large families seem to have a good life, but they cannot even decide their own marriages. To the family, they are just a tool to make the family stronger. Only by joining forces can the family move forward.
If a disciple of a family insists on his own opinion and marries a woman of unsuitable social status, not only will he be abandoned by his own family, but his own family will also be harmed and become a laughing stock of other families.
"Aren't rules meant to be broken? Why can't Fang Lang and I be together even though we clearly love each other?" Pan Yanqin cried so hard that she was almost out of breath.
Bai Lina patted Pan Yanqin's back and said, "Yanqin, let it go. You will be happier if you let it go." Even if Yanqin was really with Fang Lang, she would not be happy. She really didn't want to see Yanqin live in pain in the future.
"I want to let go, but it's not that easy." Pan Yanqin choked up. She had been telling herself to let go, but whenever she thought about her and Fang Lang becoming strangers in the future, her heart ached like a knife.
"Calm down first, I'll pour you a cup of tea." Bai Lina turned around, picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea for Pan Yanqin and handed it to her.
Pan Yanqin took the tea, drank a few sips, and then took the handkerchief Bai Lina handed her. She wiped the tears from her face and sniffed, "I feel much better." She didn't dare show it at home, for fear that her family would worry about her. After her long cry, although she still felt sad, she felt less depressed.
"That's good." Bai Lina nodded. Yanqin was a cheerful girl, and she believed she could definitely get over it.
Pan Yanqin took a deep breath and slowly said, "He'll be here soon. We've made an appointment for 9:30." If they were going to break up, she wanted to hear the reason in person. If it was because of family, she could understand. But if he really had a girlfriend, she would never forgive him in her life.
