After the cremation, Yi Mingxia went straight to the coffee shop. The women in charge of the two companies immediately went to their offices.
As for the women like Ling Ling and the others, they immediately returned to Su Fei's house to train under Xiao Xiao, Shi Yao, and Lian Bing's guidance.
On the other hand, Ling Yun accompanied Hua Ning, Ye Jing, and Hua Yue back to Ye House, especially since they were still deeply saddened by Ye Liang's death.
After arriving at Ye House, Hua Ning immediately ran into her room and cried again, thinking about her late husband, so Ye Jing immediately accompanied her mother.
On the other hand, Hua Yue directly grabbed Ling Yun's hand and asked him. "Yun, do you have a path for me and my mother to become cultivators?"
Ling Yun looked at Hua Yue in surprise. He did have a path to make them cultivators, but he didn't want to use that technique on them, especially since they were still alive.
"Why are you silent?" Hua Yue asked again as she shook Ling Yun's hand. "If you have a path for us, please tell me the truth."
"You-"
"Please don't misunderstand me." Hua Yue hurriedly interrupted Ling Yun. "I want to become a cultivator, not because I'm jealous of Jing."
Ling Xi then said to him. "She has some reasons for wanting to become a cultivator."
'Hmm? What are her reasons?' Ling Yun asked with a raised eyebrow.
Ling Xi sighed and explained to him. "First, she doesn't want to be separated from Jing'er and their mother, and she wants them to be together forever, especially after Ye Liang's death. Second, she still harbors hopes of becoming your woman."
'Hmm?' As Ling Yun recalled, Hua Yue wanted to be his woman because she was jealous of Ye Jing and wanted to snatch him away from her twin sister. That's why he never liked her or wanted to have a relationship with her.
Ling Xi then continued. "This girl has changed; she likes you and keeps thinking of ways to get your forgiveness."
Seeing Ling Yun remain silent, Hua Yue called out to him again. "Yun?"
Since Ling Yun continued to hesitate to use his technique on Hua Yue, Ling Xi then appeared to Hua Yue and said to her. "I have a path for you and your mother to become cultivators, but it's not easy and harrowing."
"Hmm?" Hua Yue was no longer surprised to see Ling Xi, for she had met her before. "What path would allow me and my mother to become cultivators?
"I can implant other people's spiritual veins to you and your mother, but finding one that fits both of your bodies is not easy." Ling Yun was not surprised to hear that, especially since his Primordial Spiritual Veins were also given to him by Ling Xi. "However, there is a possibility that the bodies of the two of you will reject their spiritual veins, and both of you will be completely disabled if that happens."
After hearing Ling Xi's words, Hua Yue gasped in shock. "Is there no other way?"
Ling Xi glanced at Ling Yun. "There is one more way, but he hesitates to use his technique on you guys, and it doesn't come with any risks."
"Is that true, Yun?" Hua Yue asked Ling Yun seriously. "Is it like what you did to Aunt Mingyue and Duan Wu?"
Ling Yun nodded to her. "If I use my technique on you two, you two will become my contracted demons."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Hua Yue impatiently asked. She wanted to become a cultivator like them, and she was willing to do anything to become one. "You can use your technique on me and my mother."
However, Ling Yun shook his head and pulled his hand from Hua Yue's grasp. "I used that technique on them because they died before, but you and Aunt Hua are alive now, so I don't want to use it on you two."
"But-"
Hua Yue had not finished speaking, Ye Jing had already said as she left their mother's room. "Yun, you can use that technique on them."
"Hmm?" Ling Yun turned to Ye Jing with a frown.
Ye Jing walked to her side and hugged Ling Yun's arm. "I know what you're thinking, but they are my family, and I don't want to part with them. So I hope you will use that technique on them, and we can be together forever."
Hearing their conversation, Hua Ning also came out of her room and she also said to him. "Yun'er, if you have a path for us to be together forever, you can use it on us right now."
Ling Yun sighed heavily. "Aunt Ning, if I were to use that technique, your lives would drastically change."
"Why?" Hua Ning asked in confusion.
"You two will turn into demons like Mingyue and Wu'er, and I don't want that to happen." Ling Yun sighed heavily before he continued. "Moreover, your demon forms will be random, and the two of you will become my contracted demons. If that happens, then the two of you will continue to stay by my side, and you will have to dual cultivate with me once in a time."
Hua Yue didn't mind that, for she really liked Ling Yun now and would be happy if she could become one.
On the other hand, Hua Ning was shocked by that. After all, she was Ling Yun's mother-in-law, and she felt strange if she had to dual cultivate with him.
Hua Yue took a deep breath and said steadily. "In that case, you can turn me into your contract demon; it's fine for me to become one."
Ye Jing was not surprised by her twin sister's decision, and she didn't mind it, especially since Ling Yun's relationship was already very messy.
On the other hand, Hua Ning looked at her daughter in astonishment, but she remembered that Hua Yue had changed and knew very well about her feelings for Ling Yun.
Ling Yun felt a dilemma to decide, for he had no feelings for Hua Yue and respected Hua Ning. "Sigh, let me think things over first."
"But-"
Hua Ning directly stopped Hua Yue, and she said to him. "All right, you can think about it first, and I also want to think about the effect first."
Hua Yue could only grumble in her heart but didn't refute her mother's words.
Ye Jing also didn't say anything to Ling Yun, for she knew that her man was in a dilemma to decide, so it would be better if he thought about it first.
"Yes." Ling Yun nodded in agreement with Hua Ning.
After that, they only talked about ordinary things, and Ling Yun explained his plans for the future, but that only made Hua Yue even more eager to become his demon contract, for she wanted to continue to be with him.

Meanwhile, just as Zhao Yao and the others arrived at the courtyard of the company building, a young man and woman intercepted them, causing them to frown.
Duan Wu then asked them. "Who are you two? Why did you intercept us?"
"You don't need to know our identities; we were ordered to capture you all." The young woman replied coldly.
The young man also said to them. "You guys better not oppose us and come with us, or you will regret it."
"Really?" Zhao Yao narrowed her eyes at them. "If my guess is correct, you two must be Huang Tian's subordinates, right?"
Yun Mingyue turned to Zhao Yao. "Huang Tian?"
"En." Tang Zhiyi nodded, answering her. "Huang Tian is Catherine's husband, and she wants to use his authority to pressure us, especially after Yun'er threatened her yesterday."
Ying Zi sighed and shook her head. "Catherine is such an idiot! If Yun'er hears of this matter, he will not spare her."
The young man and woman frowned upon hearing their conversation, especially since the women had no respect for their master, and the two immediately took out their guns and pointed at them.
"You'd better come with us quickly, or we'll forcefully take you away." The young woman coldly spoke as she prepared to pull the trigger, and the young man acted the same way.
Zhao Yao shook her head at them. "Since you two dared to point your guns at us, don't blame us."
"What?" They exclaimed in shock when Zhao Yao suddenly disappeared from their sight. 'What the hell? How could she do such a thing?'
"Heh!" Tang Zhiyi snorted softly, stretched out her hand, and used the technique Zhou Yu had taught her.
*Swoosh*
"Argh!" The two people screamed in pain, their wrists bleeding, and their guns disappeared.
Zhao Yao reappeared behind them in her demon form, and she immediately clutched their necks with her claws. "Have the two of you realized your mistake? Did you think we were afraid of Huang Tian and Catherine?"
'Monsters!' The young man and woman were shocked by their actions.
*Bam*
Zhao Yao slammed the two onto the ground hard, causing them to vomit blood, and she warned them sternly. "Since you two are ordinary people, I'll spare you this once. However, I'll rip your bodies apart if you two dare to come here again."
After that, Zhao Yao returned to her human form, and she and the other women immediately left, leaving the two people behind.
