Chapter 821: We Miss You

"She doesn't seem to want to see me." Chen Yu sighed. "Everything was fine before; I don't know why it turned out like this."

"Perhaps she has unspeakable difficulties," He Lingyun said. "It's alright, there are no misunderstandings that cannot be resolved. You should go see her; perhaps she isn't angry with you anymore."

"Alright, let's find a time to go back to Fengling together to take a look. I haven't visited my father in a long time either," Chen Yu said.

"Mm, that works. Let's clear up the matter regarding Chen Anyi first," He Lingyun nodded.

Fengling, Ye Xinyu's home.

The daughter in Ye Xinyu's arms was already fast asleep. She gently laid her daughter down and tucked her in.

Looking at her sleeping daughter, a rare trace of a smile appeared on Ye Xinyu's face. She hadn't been seen for a long time, and her features were somewhat gaunt, but there seemed to be a surge of Spiritual Light within her.

After putting her daughter down, Ye Xinyu got out of bed, glanced at the nanny who was also asleep, and then went to the villa's backyard.

Xie Hongyan appeared in the backyard. She had been staying with Ye Xinyu, but she lived by night and slept by day; even the nanny and Ye Xinyu's younger sister, Ye Qian, were unaware of her existence.

"You are already at the late stage of the Primordial Qi Realm. The power of the Spirit Butterfly, the Ancient Immortal Spirit Soul, can help you cultivate rapidly." Xie Hongyan stared at Ye Xinyu. "You are truly lucky. Do you know how many years it takes for an ordinary person to reach the late stage of the Primordial Qi Realm?"

"And do you know how precious the Immortal Spirit Soul is? I really cannot fathom why the Heavenly Mandate Elder would give such an important item to you."

That was correct; Xie Hongyan was jealous. As one of the Ten Asuras under the Heavenly Mandate Elder, she had originally enjoyed the Elder's immense trust, but she felt her status was not even as good as that of an untamable Ye Xinyu.

"If he feels he has wasted too much time on me, then he should replace me with someone else," Ye Xinyu said indifferently.

"You have separated from Chen Yu and no longer have any utility value. I just don't understand," Xie Hongyan said with a cold snort.

"If you can't understand, then keep thinking about it. From now on, you are not allowed to enter my house casually without my permission," Ye Xinyu said.

Xie Hongyan was itching with hatred, yet she could do nothing about Ye Xinyu.

"Is Chen Yu coming to Fengling?" Xie Hongyan asked.

"That has nothing to do with you," Ye Xinyu said coldly. "You must remember your status. To me, you are just a servant now."

"If it weren't for my help, you would still be an ordinary person who could be bullied by anyone," Xie Hongyan said sharply.

"You don't have to help me," Ye Xinyu smiled. "As long as you can answer to Chen Tianming."

"Fine, you're something else." Xie Hongyan was so angry that smoke seemed to be coming out of her seven orifices. She said bitterly, "The Spirit Butterfly is helping you advance too quickly. The Heavenly Mandate Elder told me to tell you to stop cultivating for a period of time to stabilize your Dao Foundation."

"Why should I stop?" Ye Xinyu completely ignored Xie Hongyan.

"Because your foundation is unstable. Ye Xinyu, I know what you want to do. You want to rely on your own efforts to cultivate and advance quickly, hoping to break free from the Heavenly Mandate Elder's control." Xie Hongyan sneered. "But I advise you to give up that thought."

"The Heavenly Mandate Elder's realm is beyond what you can imagine. He can be said to be the strongest among known Dharma Cultivators; even some Hidden Sects have to give him three points of respect. You want to break free from him? Heh, keep dreaming."

Ye Xinyu said nothing. Even though Xie Hongyan had seen through her, she remained indifferent, for she had long since cast life and death aside.

"You cannot break free, and neither can Chen Yu." Xie Hongyan chuckled. "If I were you, I would accept my fate. If you truly want to break free from him, do as he says, because an unstable Dao Foundation will likely cause you more harm than good. You had better look out for yourself."

After saying this, Xie Hongyan flashed away.

Not until she had left did the expression on Ye Xinyu's face soften slightly. She returned to the room and lay down gently beside her daughter.

Looking at the small face with a sweet smile in her sleep, she murmured, "Yushan, do you miss Daddy? I miss him. Shall we go see him together?"

In her sleep, Chen Yushan grinned and babbled a few words.

In the evening, Chen Yu arrived at the reserved restaurant on time. He was not clear about the purpose of Zhou Lao inviting him to dinner today, but Chen Yu did not believe it was purely to thank him; after all, the old man's status and position were what they were.

Moreover, his status belonged to a sensitive department, so even if he really wanted to thank him, he might not necessarily use this identity. Chen Yu guessed that he was more likely trying to invite him to join Dragon Breath.

When Chen Yu arrived, Zhou Lao and his group had already arrived. Apart from Zhou Xinyan and her younger brother Zhou Ming, there was no one else.

"Heh, Little Chen, you're here. Let's wait a moment; I have an old friend who will be here shortly," Zhou Lao said with a smile. "Please, sit."

"Thank you, Zhou Lao." Chen Yu sat down composedly.

"Chen Yu, should I call you Young Master Chen from now on?" Zhou Ming chuckled. "I didn't expect you to have that layer of identity. Tsk tsk, a proper scion of an Aristocratic Family."

Chen Yu's identity had already spread throughout Shengjing. Everyone who knew him knew he was the son of the president of the He Group; this was a proper young master of an Aristocratic Family.

Zhou Xinyan could not help but look at Chen Yu with a complex expression. Suddenly, as if remembering something, her face flushed slightly, and she turned away.

Zhou Ming was a typical chatterbox. He turned his head and said, "By the way, Grandpa, I have a good thing here to give you."

As Zhou Ming spoke, he took out a small, exquisitely packaged box. Inside the box were two vials of green liquid.

"What is this?" Zhou Lao was slightly stunned.

"Grandpa, this is a new product I asked a friend to get. Have you heard of Yanhuang Biotechnology? It's an overseas company engaged in human gene research, aiming for life extension. I heard their products can make people rejuvenate and delay aging," Zhou Ming said mysteriously.

"Yanhuang?" Chen Yu's expression changed slightly. He could not help but think of Li Yijia; this must be the product Li Yijia was going to release in a few days.

"Right, this is their No. 1 product. Within three days, it can make a person's hair turn black and reduce wrinkles on the face, making them look at least ten years younger. And this is the No. 2 product; I heard it takes effect immediately after taking it," Zhou Ming chuckled.

"Are these things health supplements? It's best not to take them. We in the police force often raid these kinds of places." Zhou Xinyan's brows furrowed slightly; she was very repulsed by such things.

"Sis, this isn't an ordinary health supplement. Someone has tried it personally, and they really became younger," Zhou Ming said mysteriously. "This product wasn't supposed to be released until next week; I asked my friend to get it for me."
