Menma could still act calm even though she was sitting opposite a high-status man. Emperor Wexin was amazed at Menma's calmness, because in general everyone who faced him was always nervous and afraid.

"All right, I'll get straight to the point. It seems that you already know the secret of my Daughter," Emperor Wexin said straight to the point. This was what he wanted to convey when Xingxing mentioned the 'body of the Moon' blatantly, and seeing Menma's usual response, he was sure Menma did already know the secret that Xingxing's body was in.

"The body of the Moon as well as the strength of its ancestors. I was amazed and horrified to know that" Menma replied, which made Emperor Wexin gasp in shock.

"You know that too?" emperor Wexin panicked a little. Maybe he doesn't want the secret of his daughter this one known to just anyone.

Menma nodded slowly, then looked at Emperor Wexin seriously. "Why?"

"Why?" Initially Emperor Wexin was confused by Menma's question. But the next few seconds he immediately understood the meaning of the question.

"Because I don't want him targeted by criminals. You should know how special the Moon's body plus it inherited the power from its ancestor," replied the Wexin Emperor weakly. Menma was silent for a moment. I agree with Emperor Wexin. Xingxing not only possessed the Moon's body, but also the inherited power of his ancestor. Which Xingxing's entire body was extremely precious, even if it was just his sweat water.

"Then did Uncle not intend to unseal the wedge on his body? I see she suffers enough to be considered a disabled Princess, whereas the Xin family is a famous noble family that always gives birth to genius and great children." Even so, Menma still could not bear to let Xingxing be looked down upon.

Emperor Wexin sighed softly hearing Menma's words. His shoulders dropped as if there was a heavy load there. "Actually I am also sad to see it as such, which parent likes to see his child looked down upon? But, for her own good, I don't want to have to. It was better than him being targeted by many evil Cultivators."

Menma was silent again. The words of Emperor Wexin have a point. But, Menma slightly did not accept seeing Xingxing being looked down upon like that by some people.

"Actually I came here to talk about this. I want to unseal the wedge on his body, but it all depends on Uncle. Uncle is his parents, I can't just act without his parents' permission" Menma said calmly. Emperor Wexin was surprised to hear his words.

"Can't! I won't allow it!" reject it directly with a firm tone. Menma had expected that she would definitely get this answer from Emperor Wexin. It was clear from the beginning to talk about it.

"I got an answer, Uncle. I won't force it or question it any further." Get up and stand up. Emperor Wexin gasped to see Menma standing up, spontaneously standing up as well.

"Then I say goodbye" said Menma again.

Emperor Wexin opened his mouth, wanting to speak but his throat was like it was choking on something. He also closed his mouth.

"Oh, yeah." Menma had almost forgotten one thing. He looked back at Emperor Wexin. "Uncle had heard that someone was after Xingxing. That guy is so strong, you're not even his rival. I'm not scaring, I just want Uncle to be more alert to keep Xingxing. I'm sure the man will come back after Xingxing."

Emperor Wexin opened his mouth. "Ah .. so. Thank you for helping Xing'er survive the man. Don't you want to rest maybe a day here?" Emperor Wexin knew that Menma was very meritorious when his daughter went missing. As a father of Xingxing, he also knew that he had to thank her. Maybe by hosting Menma tonight.

For a moment Menma was silent, wanting to say yes but she was reminded of the condition of the Middle world which was no longer safe. "It seems not, maybe next time it can," Menma replied with a brief smile.

"Ah, okay. If you come again do not hesitate to stop by, Hou kingdom will always be open for you."

"Of course, I won't hesitate anymore. Thanks for the welcome, Uncle Wexin." Menma smiled at a glance. Then turning around, along with it appeared a dimensional door. Menma just entered, then the dimensional door disappeared.

Emperor Wexin was silent at that. He knew little about the dimensional door that could take its users wherever it wanted. But he never saw it in person, but today, Menma showed it to him.

"remarkable. It turned out that he was extremely strong, a figure that should not be offended. The Hou Empire should be able to obtain supporters like him," decak Emperor Wexin was amazed.

"It's been almost a week Mom's gone. Is he not coming back?" Yihua sighed heavily somehow to how many times. Ever since Shua Xie left, she had become even more moody than usual.

"Calm down, Mom's definitely home. Maybe tomorrow?" sahut Minghao tried to comfort his sister so as not to be sad anymore.

"My hunch says something happened to, Mother," Jiazhen's chimpanzee made Minghao and Yihua turn to look at her. "Maybe you're in trouble?" continued again.

"Don't say that! You're worrying me more!" sahut Yihua was upset. Her lips grew even more pouted when she heard Jiazhen's words.

"You can't say that, Jiazhen! Don't you remember what we came here for?"

"Keeps Mom, right?" jiazhen replied casually. Minghao nodded confirming Jiazhen's reply.

"Dad wants us to take care of Mom. But Mother left without taking us," said Yihua annoyed. It was really upset to remember the incident a week ago, where he asked Chi Su about the whereabouts of Shua Xie. It turned out that Shua Xie had gone with Ogher somewhere. What was frustrating was that Shua Xie left without telling Yihua and the others. It was as if Shua Xie did not consider them important.

"Of course, we just have to wait for Mom's arrival. Don't frown anymore," Minghao replied as he gently patted Yihua's shoulder. Yihua only snorted back at Minghao's words.

Meanwhile, Chi Su came so hastily, even forgetting to knock on the door of this three-child residence. Surely the arrival of Chi Su made the three of them panic. They thought there had been an attack or so on the Xuilin kingdom. You see, Chi Su's expression was very suitable to describe the situation.

"Aunt Chi Su, why panic? Did something happen?" asked Minghao who was already standing beside Chi Su when he saw Chi Su coming.

"That!"

"What?!" sahut Yihua was curious.

"Come!"

"Who?" jiazhen timpal.

"He's come!" replied Chi Su loudly. But the three children did not understand what Chi Su was talking about.

"Who? Call her name, Bi!" sahut Minghao was no less loud, annoyed plus curious because Chi Su's words were unclear.

"Miss is home!"

"REally?!" tell the three children at the same time. Chi Su nodded loudly in reply to their words.

Without babibu, the three of them immediately ran out, looking for the figure they so longed for. I don't know, even though they were only foster children, their feelings for Shua Xie were deep from the moment they first met. Did Shua Xie also have the same feeling?

Coincidentally, the three of them ran towards the residence of Shua Xie. A woman walks towards the residence of Shua Xie, whom the three of them believe to be Shua Xie. While far behind, there was Chi Su running after the three of them.

"Mother!!"

Minghao and Yihua directly hugged Shua Xie from behind. Let go of their longing with a hug. Jiazhen stood still, not intending to hug Shua Xie or say anything.

The figure they embraced turned around. It was a beautiful face that they missed so much. Even that face looked even more beautiful than before. Shua Xie smiled faintly looking at the two children who were hugging him.

"Minghao, Yihua, how are you doing?" shua Xie asked kindly with an ever-expanding smile.

Minghao took off his embrace. Smiling back at Shua Xie. "We're doing fine. But not for Yihua. She missed Mother so much," Minghao replied cheerfully.

Yihua tightened her embrace, as if confirming what Minghao said. "Mom why leave without telling us? Don't you love us?" yihua asked softly in a sad tone. Still disappointed that Shua Xie left the three of them without saying goodbye.

Shua Xie crouched down in front of Yihua then wiped away the tears of Yihua that had come out. "I'm sorry Mom. I just don't want you guys to come, it's very dangerous there. But next time I'll take you wherever you go."

"really?" sahut Yihua while looking at Shua Xie. Shua Xie nodded slowly confirming Yihua's words.

Spontaneous Yihua hugged Shua Xie again. I'm glad Shua Xie won't be leaving her again. Shua Xie returned Yihua's embrace, as if to be pleased with Yihua's happiness.

'So this is how it feels to miss someone?' Shua Xie smiled sadly. Recalling how difficult he used to be, no one wanted his presence, not even for his own Father. Until finally, another Shua Xie appeared to snatch away his body. But now, he was able to return in a better state.

"Miss!" call the new Chi Su. Chi Su was silent for a moment, adjusting her breathing to calm down again. Because running too fast the heart race also increases fast. This was all due to her pleasure at hearing the news of Shua Xie's return.

"Chi Su!" Shua Xie released his embrace from Yihua. Then he approached Chi Su and hugged her. Chi Su was shocked at Shua Xie's attitude. It was not usual for Shua Xie to hug her like this. But Chi Su did not want to take a headache, he then returned Shua Xie's embrace.

"Miss, how are you? I was worried Miss was coming home longer like I used to."

"I'm fine, Chi Su. You should know, how happy I am to see you again" Shua Xie replied sadly.

Chi Su chuckled at hearing that. "Miss could have been. I miss Miss too."

Shua Xie released his embrace while smiling happily. How longing he was with Chi Su, the figure who accompanied him from when he was a child. If only there were no Chi Su and her mother, perhaps Shua Xie would really be lonely in this cruel world. Ah, considering all that makes Shua Xie's eyes sore and want to cry.

"Oh, yes, Miss. Where is Ogher? Isn't she coming along, Miss?" Chi Su chuckled, acting as if he was looking for Ogher's whereabouts. Shua Xie chuckled because of her behavior.

"I ordered him to report to the Emperor upon my arrival" Shua Xie replied.

"Ah, so it seems. I don't think I see him." Chi Su nodded in understanding.

"Jiazhen, don't you miss Mom too? Why don't you hug her?" Minghao frowned in surprise seeing Jiazhen's attitude as being different from ordinary. Jiazhen seemed to not recognize Shua Xie. Hearing that, Shua Xie looked towards Jiazhen and approached her.

"Jijaz."

"Don't come any closer." Jiazhen stepped back as Shua Xie approached her. Everyone was astonished at Jiazhen's strange demeanor.

"What's wrong with you, Jiazhen? Why are you acting like that to Mom?" yihua Timpal.

"Jiazhen, are you mad at Mom for leaving without telling you? Forgive Mom. I just don't want anything to happen to you guys." Shua Xie looked at Jiazhen softly. Quite sad to see Jiazhen's attitude did not want her to approach.

"Jiazhen, I'm sorry. You can't be like that" said Minghao who was intending to help Shua Xie. She could not bear to see the look on Shua Xie's face saddened by Jiazhen's cold demeanor.

"Jjechen ...."

Jiazhen shook her head slowly while stepping back as Shua Xie approached her again. "It's not like that. Sorry, it's just that you're not my mom."
