"Dad, don’t underestimate ."
Long Yubei raised his eyebrows, "Dad doesn’t underestimate you, Dad encourages you."
Stars, expressing doubt about his words, said, "Dad, are you trying to get information out of ?"
"Get what information?"
"Are you trying to find out how far things have gone between and Yue Liang?" Stars, in a mature tone, told him, "I’m not telling you. One of our classmates was beaten by his father because he spent his allowance, given by his dad, to buy snacks for his girlfriend, and his dad hit him for it."
"Dad is very open-minded, not like your classmate’s dad," Long Yubei explained. "Dad tells you both, I’m not against you being good to a girl. You can buy her nice things, treats and toys, anything good, but you must have boundaries. You can’t have fleeting interests; you must focus on one girl and be good to her."
"Dad, you truly are a great dad." Stars sincerely praised, "I actually have such a good dad!"
Long Yubei and Gu Lili exchanged a glance, unable to hold back their laughter.

After dinner, Gu Lili returned to her residence in the Heavenly World.
One of the leaders of the Bashen Sect, Ah Luo, was already waiting for her.
When she arrived, Ah Luo handed her a file folder, "Master, these are the recent secret communications between Immortal Venerable Yuan Song of the Heavenly World and the Demon World, all with official seals."
Gu Lili took it, opened it for a look, and after finishing, she nodded, "You’ve worked hard."
"From what I see, this Immortal Venerable Yuan Song is currently very dissatisfied with the Second Master, the current Heavenly King of the Heavenly World, and intends to collaborate with the Demon World to launch a complete subversion. This person cannot be left alone."
"I was just planning to deal with him. I have my own plans about this matter. Recently, keep a close eye on Rong Fei, I feel he won’t stay quiet."
"Yes, I will take my leave."
Gu Lili nodded, holding the folder as she lingered in the courtyard for a mont before going to find Jun Yu, to show this to him once over.
"Sister, how do you plan to handle him?"
"Let’s not alert him yet. Striking to set an example might make it harder to uncover other accomplices later on. We’ll observe for now." Gu Lili lowered her voice, "Let him jump around for a few days, I’ll go to his place later to see if there’s any new discovery, like a list or sothing. And you, call him over to create the illusion of valuing him, and give him a leisurely post as a facade."
"Alright."
...
When Gu Lili arrived at Immortal Venerable Yuan Song’s ho, he had just been called away by Jun Yu.
His wife and child were at ho, but due to their low cultivation, they didn’t even notice when Gu Lili ca in.
The study was indeed tidied spotlessly, indicating important docunts would not be kept here. Gu Lili pondered, they would probably be in the least noticeable places, places one wouldn’t think of. Putting herself in his shoes, if it were her, where would she hide them?
Three places: a child’s room, bathroom, and kitchen.
These are the most commonly used yet the most inconspicuous places.
She first went to the master bedroom, heading straight for the bathroom.
Sweeping her gaze around, Gu Lili’s eyes landed on the toilet, lifting the tank lid, unexpectedly finding a box inside the water.
She reached in to take it out, indeed, the most unlikely places hide what one doesn’t want others to know.
The box was made of Water Stone crafted from the essence of heaven and earth, sealed so tightly, not a single seam was visible, even subrged in water it made no difference.
Gu Lili opened the box, a blue light spread out and quickly dissipated. Her gaze shifted from shock to calm, and inside it was nothing else but the blue sky stone, the heirloom of their Jun Family line, which had disappeared once it reached her father, Jun Pingsheng. She had seen it several tis as a child.
