Ming Lan waited for Long Chen to answer without interfering with him, feeling like it was so important matter.
"Wait a minute, let call others as well. I want everyone to know."
Long Chen brought everyone outside, including Ming Rin, His father, his grandfather, his mother, Zhiqing, Mingyu, Xue, i.
"Hmm? What happened? Everyone’s here? Are you in trouble?" Long Jun asked Long Chen as soon as he appeared.
"I am perfectly fine. There is no trouble. I just called everyone out because I need to confess sothing that all of you deserve to know," Long Chen replied, shaking his head.
" I didn’t tell you all before, but the truth is that Ming Rin is..." Long Chen started speaking again. "She is my wife!"
After confessing, he looked at Ming Lan to see her response, but he only saw her chuckling.
The others, however, looked more stunned since they believed that Long Chen wouldn’t joke like that.
Ming Rin herself didn’t know how to react. She didn’t expect that Long Chen would really tell everyone about it.
"Your jokes are getting better. Right mother?" Ming Lan answered, as she controlled her laughter and glanced at Ming Rin.
Seeing Ming Rin’s expressions, she felt like sothing was wrong.
"I’m not joking. What happened was that..."
Long Chen started explaining the events as they had transpired.
"And that’s how a misunderstanding resulted in her giving her Marriage Crystal that entered my body without my permission, making her my wife. After the misunderstanding was clear, she decided against telling everyone, worrying for . I can’t let her stay alone like that forever and hide the truth from others," Long Chen replied as he sighed.
"That... Are you really telling the truth?" Sima Ziyi asked.
"Yeah, she is my wife. I can’t deny that," Long Chen muttered as he nodded his head.
"Well, that is weird. My In-Law is my Daughter-in-law as well. You should’ve told before," Sima Ziyi let out with a wry look on her face as she looked at Ming Rin, not knowing how to react.
" I know it makes things awkward, but it’s better than hiding the truth. I’m ready for any punishnt you guys have for for hiding the truth," Long Chen responded as he sat on the bed.
"There’s no need for punishnt. With how you described the event, it’s clear that it was no one’s fault. This misunderstanding caused everything. I have no complaints. Just don’t hide things like this again," Long Ran said as he stepped back, removing himself from this awkward situation.
"I, ah, it’s not my area of expertise, but I am sure you ant well. It’s for your wives to forgive you, though. I’m not putting my nose in it," Long Jun smiled wryly as he also stepped back.
"True. It’s the matter of my daughters-in-law. Let them handle it on their own. Their decision has my full support," Sima Ziyi chid in as she also stepped back.
Ming Rin didn’t even raise her head in embarrassnt.
"Alright. Let’s go with proper order then. The Wife Council will declare their Punishnt separately. Xue, You’re first," Zhiqing laughed as if she was enjoying this situation.
She placed her hand on Xue’s shoulder.
Everyone looked towards Xue.
"It isn’t your fault. There’s no need for punishnt. I accept what happened," Xue said sincerely.
"Hahaha, I expected that from Xue. You’re always fine with what he does. i, what about you?" Zhiqing inquired.
"I agree with sister," i said with an innocent smile on her face.
"Alright. Now, ti for the boss lady. Mingyu, what’s your verdict?" Zhiqing asked Mingyu.
Mingyu sighed as she looked at Long Chen. "Aren’t these misunderstandings happening more and more often with you? Your second misunderstanding this ti. Sigh, I can understand why you were worried, though. I can’t complain about it since it already happened, but please control the misunderstandings. The schedule is already running thin."
"True. This guy is really uncontrollable. Collecting wives left and right. Hahahaha, I don’t think it’s intentional at this point. I have no punishnt either. Just control yourself a little. No more! At Least not through misunderstandings," Zhiqing chid in with her opinion.
"I will keep that in mind and try to be more careful," Long Chen replied as he rubbed the back of his head.
"Ming Lan, you’re the last one. What do you have to say?" Zhiqing asked Ming Lan.
Ming Lan looked at Ming Rin, who finally raised her head to look at her daughter apologetically.
Ming Lan walked towards her mother and raised her hand.
"I have no complaints. I am instead happy that my mother gets to experience love. She has never been with a guy in all her existence. She finally has soone, and that too, soone like him. What better could I hope for," she said as she placed her hand on Ming Lan’s cheeks.
"Alright. The Wife’s council has decided. Long Chen is free of all cris. There shall be no punishnt!" Zhiqing declared after getting everyone’s opinion.
"Doesn’t this an it’ll be mother’s turn next week? She would get to see this world. It’s so nice." Ming Lan muttered as she smiled.
"Oh, right. Since all of you are already here, let introduce you to a little guy who’s accompanying us. He’s more like a little brother, but I am teaching him Cultivation. I will call him here," Long Chen said as he left the room.
After a few minutes, he ca back with Xu Liang.
He introduced everyone.
After a lively conversation and get together, everyone went back to the Fake World.
"Lan’er, you stay here with Liang. I will be right back after eting soone," Long Chen told Ming Lan after everyone left. He left the hotel and went back to the Xie Clan since it was the ti when he was supposed to et Xie Luqing.
Long Chen reached the place and started waiting as he casually walked around the Xie Estate without arousing suspicions.
After half an hour, Xie Luqing stepped out of the mansion.
Seeing Long Chen, he started walking towards him, but he didn’t stop near Long Chen. He continued walking.
Long Chen understood that it wasn’t to cause suspicions. He started following after him.
"What’s the update? Is he the sa guy?" Long Chen asked the man as he walked beside him.
"Yeah. I asked his na. He said it was Ji Shan. Also, when I gave him the talisman and told him that his friends are here, he was really shocked. He told if it was soone called Long Chen. He asked to deliver you a ssage as well," Xie Luqing replied, confirming Long Chen’s suspicions.
"So it is him. That’s good to know. What was the ssage?" Long Chen inquired.
"He told to convey to you that this place is dangerous and that you shouldn’t place yourself in danger for him. Oh, and he apologized to you. I don’t know why. He just told to tell you that he was sorry," Xie Luqing answered.
" He was sorry? Well, let alone the fact that I can’t leave him behind, even the fact that he made curious as to why he was sorry is enough of an excuse to et him," Long Chen muttered as he smiled.
"How was the security of the prison tower? And which floor was he kept in?" Long Chen inquired with an amused smile on his face.
"The Security is very strict. There is only one way to enter the tower, and that is through the main entrance, which is guarded by a Sky Realm Elder, two Earth Realm Cultivators, and many Gold Realm Cultivators. It’s a place where the enemies of the clan are kept, so it’s pretty secure," Xie Luqing explained.
