But Lin Chen is different. He is not entirely of this world, so he cannot shout and kill like her at any time.

Zhou Yun'er hurriedly got up from the ground and knelt down properly, no longer daring to cry or even plead.

Now, Lin Chen also understood. It turns out that Zhou Yun'er was also taking advantage of his shy and soft-hearted nature.

He frowned and his face looked a little unpleasant.

Zhou Zhuqing looked at Lin Chen and said, "You have always been in the Eternal Immortal Sect. You should understand the rules within the sect. But it seems that you are softhearted. Since it was my family that got you into trouble, I will let you see how to handle it."

"Zhou Yun'er, lift your head." Zhou Zhuqing's aura suddenly changed, becoming cold and stern.

Zhou Yun'er dared not disobey and slowly lifted her head.

"Smack!" Zhou Zhuqing slapped her directly.

This slap was heavy, and half of Zhou Yun'er's face swelled up.

"You and Lu Qiu have long severed your fate. He has already fallen into darkness, practicing evil techniques. Even the Lu family no longer wants him. But you still treat him like a treasure. What are you thinking?" Zhou Zhuqing was frustrated.

To give birth to a girl with a natural high-grade water attribute spiritual root, what a great honor it was.

If she could settle down and raise the child well, there would still be a future for her.

But for the sake of a man, she disregarded everything, how embarrassing!

Zhou Yun'er dared not cry and whispered, "He is not an evil practitioner. It's just that he was seriously injured during the battle between immortals and demons before, which destroyed his spiritual roots and meridians. He had to find other ways to cultivate."

"Excuse!" Zhou Zhuqing coldly shouted, "How many people in the family had their spiritual roots and meridians damaged in that battle? But why didn't they practice demonic techniques? The family has been well-off all these years. It's just that they have insatiable desires and still want to deceive you by saying there is no way."

"When you were at home, we did meet, and your talent is considered excellent. How did I not realize that you are so foolish?" Zhou Zhuqing waved her hand.

She looked at Zhou Yun'er, losing all patience.

"Lin Chen is softhearted and willing to let you go, but you are surnamed Zhou, a woman of my Zhou family. If you just leave like this, where will our Zhou family's face be? You are following a person who is not accepted by the righteous path. Isn't this tarnishing our Zhou family's reputation?" Zhou Zhuqing crossed her arms and began to analyze the pros and cons.

Her intention was to make Zhou Yun'er come to her senses and live a good life.

But Zhou Yun'er acted as if she was charging forward for love, kneeling straight there and saying, "Miss, you have said so much, but it's just because you are worried that I will bring trouble to the family. In that case, I will leave the family!"

Lin Chen, who was on the side, could hardly believe his ears. He knew she was a love-struck fool, but he really didn't expect this woman to be so stubborn.

She was willing to sever ties with her own family for the sake of a man.

You should know that in this world, if a weak woman loses the protection of her family, her fate will be very miserable.

Moreover, Zhou Yun'er is not an ordinary citizen. She is a woman from a prestigious immortal sect, and she already has spiritual roots. This makes it even more dangerous.

Not only Lin Chen, but even Zhou Zhuqing did not expect her to say such things.

She took a few steps back, frowned, and looked at her, saying, "You want to leave the family? Do you know that if you leave the family, you will completely sever the relationship? In the future, even if you die in the Zhou Family Manor, no one will give you a proper burial. Even your parents will not be able to hold their heads up because of you!"

"I have no regrets." Zhou Yun'er straightened her body.

To go to such lengths for a man, this woman is truly beyond redemption.

Lin Chen was afraid that Zhou Zhuqing would be angered, so he looked at her helplessly and whispered, "Forget it, forget it. I think you shouldn't say anything more. Why bother with yourself?"

"Zhou Yun'er, I'll say it again, if you want to leave, you can leave anytime." Lin Chen waved his hand, "Aren't you impatient? Then go ahead and leave now."

After hearing these words, Zhou Yun'er hesitated for almost no time at all, stood up, and walked away.

Watching her resolute figure, Zhou Zhuqing couldn't help but feel a headache. "What an embarrassing thing!"

"If it's embarrassing, why do you care? Besides, she has already left the clan because of her extreme love for the present. You have no reason to stop her from pursuing happiness," Lin Chen smiled and looked at Zhou Zhuqing.

Happiness?

Upon hearing these words, Zhou Zhuqing seemed to have heard an incredible joke.

He snorted coldly, "Besides cultivation, what else is reliable? Can she really get everything she wants by giving up everything to follow that man?"

"Of course not, you understand, but she doesn't," Lin Chen snorted coldly. "Cultivation is the most testing of one's character. That Lu Qiu, if things don't go well, he will switch to demonic cultivation. What good can come out of that? I'm afraid he would even enjoy it if someone dug up his spiritual roots."

Zhou Zhuqing furrowed his brows slightly and looked at Lin Chen, suddenly realizing something.

"Are you saying that Lu Qiu doesn't want Zhou Yun'er, but her spiritual roots?" Zhou Zhuqing took a deep breath. "What a shameless person!"

Indeed, he was shameless enough, but it couldn't be helped. Zhou Yun'er was willing.

He finally understood that Lu Qiu had a deep cultivation base. If this were in modern times, he would be a master of mental control!

Maybe Zhou Yun'er would willingly offer her spiritual roots!

Thinking of this, Lin Chen felt extremely disgusted. If he didn't kill Lu Qiu, he wouldn't be able to get rid of the hatred in his heart!

Seeing the killing intent in Lin Chen's eyes, Zhou Zhuqing was somewhat shocked.

But it had only been a few days since they last met, how could his temperament have changed so much?

Upon closer inspection, he found that Lin Chen's True Qi was dense, and it seemed like he was about to level up again.

"You're about to break through?" Zhou Zhuqing looked at him in astonishment.

Lin Chen nodded, "The True Qi in my body has been vibrating these days. I think I should be able to reach the Gold Core stage soon."

In just a year, from being a waste without spiritual roots to almost reaching the Gold Core stage, this advancement speed was explosive even in the entire immortal sect.

"There is some turmoil at the boundary between the immortal and demonic realms. I plan to take my family to take a look. Will you come with us?" Zhou Zhuqing changed the topic.

The boundary between the immortal and demonic realms?

Lin Chen frowned. If he remembered correctly, Luo Yunli said she wanted to go there before she left.

It had been so long now, and she hadn't returned. Could something have happened?

Thinking of this, Lin Chen nodded, "Of course, I will take this opportunity for cultivation."

Cultivation relied on meditation on one hand and actual combat on the other.

Lin Chen currently had fewer opportunities for actual combat, so he naturally had to seize every opportunity available.

Seeing Lin Chen's appearance, Zhou Zhuqing smiled, "Alright, settle your family first. We will set off in three days."

"Okay, three days later, we will depart together." Lin Chen nodded, agreeing to this matter.
