Wei Jia suddenly raised his head and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. I will definitely investigate what happened after I left that day."

As he spoke, Wei Jia dared not meet Yu Mu's eyes, clearly filled with guilt inside.

Yu Mu said nothing, wiped the tears from his eyes, nodded calmly, and turned to leave.

Ye Chen followed along, leaving only Wei Jia kneeling alone in a daze on the ground.

On the road.

Yu Mu stroked Jia Mu's head, "Jia Mu, don't blame your father. He is a very good person."

"Mm!" Jia Mu nodded sensibly and said, "I know, I don't blame him; I know in my heart that my father is a good person."

Yu Mu smiled gently.

Ye Chen didn't expect Yu Mu had such a story. It seems that among monsters, relations are quite similar to humans, with family and affection.

"Ye Chen, thank you so much this time. If it weren't for you, we might have been really doomed."

Yu Mu looked at Ye Chen and said gratefully.

Ye Chen waved his hand and smiled, "No worries, it's what I should do. But Senior Yu Mu, why didn't you tell Wei Jia earlier?"

Telling Wei Jia early might have prevented this kind of thing from happening.

Yu Mu smiled bitterly and said, "I couldn't. Wei Jia is naturally suspicious. If I had told him then, he would have thought I was fabricating things to get him to spare me."

Ye Chen nodded. Such a thing could indeed happen.

Back at Yu Mu's residence, Yu Mu lay wearily on the rocking chair.

Even a Level 87 strong person feels very uncomfortable when faced with such matters.

Jia Mu sat beside Yu Mu, leaning against him, quietly keeping him company.

After a long while, Yu Mu suddenly said, "Jia Mu, didn't you always say you wanted to go out and see with Ye Chen?"

Jia Mu suddenly lifted his head, nodded, and said, "Mm."

"Then this time, go out with Ye Chen and have a look."

"But Mom, what will you do if I leave?" Jia Mu hugged Yu Mu's arm, saying reluctantly.

Yu Mu stroked Jia Mu's head and said indulgently, "What could happen to me here? You're grown up; it's time for you to see the world. In fact, the outside world is quite exciting. You should go see it."

Jia Mu nodded, "Mm. Mom, take good care of yourself here."

"Mm, don't worry. You go play for a while. I have some words to say to your brother Ye Chen alone."

Jia Mu nodded understandingly and left.

Whoo!

Yu Mu took a deep breath, looked at Ye Chen, and smiled, "Ye Chen, I really didn't misjudge you. I didn't expect you to come; I thought you might be too scared."

"Scared? There's nothing to fear," Ye Chen responded with a smile.

"Haha!"

Yu Mu laughed, "For ordinary people, hearing an LV87 person ask for help would surely terrify them, but you weren't scared, and you really came. Honestly, you impressed me."

Ye Chen cupped his hands, "Thank you for the praise, Senior Yu Mu."

Sigh, Yu Mu sighed, lying back in the chair and looking at the sky.

There was nothing in the sky, only bustling leaves and sunlight shining down.

The December weather was beginning to cool down.

The sunlight on his face felt warm.

"Ye Chen, you should know Jia Mu likes you," Yu Mu suddenly said.

Ye Chen was taken aback, not understanding Yu Mu's words.

"There's nothing to be done. When a girl grows up, you can't stop her. Jia Mu, like me, is stubborn and only sees one person in her life. In the past, I didn't let her contact other males, fearing she might meet bad people. But no matter how well I protected her, she still met you. Maybe it's destiny. Every race knows that my Holy Wood Race possesses Pure Yin Wood Qi. Obtaining our Pure Yin Wood Qi greatly enhances one's body and talent.

So they all try to approach us, but you, being human, don't know this. Besides, after this event, I'm relieved. I'm at ease giving Jia Mu to you."

Yu Mu seemed to be speaking to himself.

"But, Senior Yu Mu..."

Before Ye Chen could finish, Yu Mu suddenly sat up and said, "What? You don't think highly of my Jia Mu?"

Ye Chen quickly waved his hand, saying, "No, that's not what I mean. Jia Mu is beautiful, gentle, and understanding, how could I not like her? It's just, actually, I already have someone by my side, and not just one."

Ye Chen said a bit embarrassed.

Hearing this, Yu Mu burst into laughter, "I thought it was something else. Oh, this is nothing. An excellent man having several wives is normal. In our world, it's a common thing, and I don't mind."

Ye Chen was utterly speechless; this future mother-in-law was so generous.

"But if you dare make my Jia Mu sad or wronged, I will definitely castrate you."

Yu Mu suddenly changed her tone, turning from gentle to threatening.

Ye Chen nodded repeatedly.

This mother-in-law was not only generous but also very fierce.

"By the way, I have a Wood Saint Hall here. If you have good friends with Wood Attribute, you can bring them over."

"Okay, thank you, Senior Yu Mu."

Yu Mu called out, "Jia Mu, come back."

Jia Mu hurried back, looking nervously at Yu Mu and Ye Chen.

Yu Mu stood up, held Jia Mu's hand, and said gently, "Alright, go with Ye Chen. Take care and strive to get stronger quickly."

"Mm, I know, Mom. Take good care of yourself."

Ye Chen waited beside.

Mother and daughter said their farewells, naturally indulging in whispered conversations.

After a long time, Jia Mu, with red eyes, came to Ye Chen's side, "Brother Ye Chen, let's go."

Bowing to Yu Mu, Ye Chen left with Jia Mu.

At first, Jia Mu was somewhat silent and unhappy, naturally feeling reluctant on her first time leaving her mother.

But once they left the misty area and arrived outside, Jia Mu's mood suddenly improved.

"Wow! Brother Ye Chen, the outside world is so big and beautiful! Look, there's a vast mountain range, and over there, such a long river!"

Anything Jia Mu saw that she hadn't seen before made her exclaim in surprise.

"Brother Ye Chen, what's that!"

Jia Mu pointed at a tall building, asking curiously.

"That's the area where humans live, commonly known as a house, also called a skyscraper," Ye Chen explained to Jia Mu.

Jia Mu nodded and understood, completely transformed into a curious baby, asking Ye Chen questions east and west.

Ye Chen patiently explained everything one by one.

"Jia Mu, I have many friends. Do you want to see them?"

Ye Chen looked at Jia Mu and asked. Ye Chen had some personal matters to handle and couldn't accompany Jia Mu every day, so he planned to let Jia Mu stay in Z City first to get familiar with human life. He thought Jia Mu might feel disappointed.

Unexpectedly, Jia Mu shouted excitedly, "Great! I also want to make many friends. Brother Ye Chen, please take me there!"
