Soul travels to another world and becomes a group favorite

Everyone in the room was stunned when they saw the imperial edict, especially the last sentence: "If the situation is true, execute him on the spot!" This sentence was like a heavy bomb, which blew everyone up. They couldn't believe that this was the decision made by the benevolent and wise emperor.

Li Jinyi silently observed the reactions of the crowd with cold eyes. These were Xier's relatives in front of them. Whether to abandon them or protect them was up to them.

He looked at everyone and said in a firm tone: "Everyone, if you still choose to stand on the same front with your emperor, I have nothing to say. However, I must take Xier back to Qinglan Palace, and I will notify the Immortal Emperor to deal with this matter." After that, he turned around and pulled Ling Chenxi and walked out the door.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment. They knew in their hearts that the situation had changed and they had to reconsider their position.

At this time, Patriarch Ling said, "Patriarch Luo, Patriarch Luo, there is no need for your family to get involved in this matter."

"Ancestor Ling, Xi'er is my granddaughter. If your family wants to protect your clan, you can expel Xi'er, but I don't want you to sacrifice her." Patriarch Luo said with a sigh.

"Grandfather, father, I request to leave the Ling family. Xier is my child. No matter what, I will not give up on her." The general said solemnly.

"And as for me, Dad, I would rather not be the young master than to stand by you guys." Ling Chenhong said firmly.

However, no matter what choice they make, this storm has inevitably been set off, and a fierce power struggle is about to begin...

In Yixi Cottage, Li Jinyi brought Ling Chenxi to their courtyard room, turned around and said to her, "Xi'er, don't rest here with peace of mind. No one will come in to disturb you or hurt you."

"Ayi, I... uh." Ling Chenxi cried and threw herself into Li Jinyi's arms, hugging him tightly.

"Don't worry, it's safe here. Xi'er, take a Qingxin Pill and have a good sleep. You'll be fine when you wake up, I promise. Be good! I'll go find father and will be back soon." After Li Jinyi fed Ling Chenxi a Qingxin Pill, he picked her up and put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt and walked out.

After Li Jinyi went out, he came to Li's father's yard: "Ayi, weren't you in Lingtong City? Why did you come back so soon?" asked Li's father.

Li Jinyi told his father about the emperor's plan to cooperate with the Demon Sect to execute Ling Chenxi, and asked his father about his decision.

"Does the General's Mansion know about this?" asked Li's father.

Li Jinyi nodded and said, "I just showed them the information received by the Lingtong City Auction House. They didn't express their opinions until Xing Xigou came back."

"How about this, you send someone to keep an eye on the General Guarding the Nation's Mansion, and I will report to the Immortal Emperor. We'll see what the attitude of General Nian's Mansion is tomorrow!" Father Li said with a sigh.

"Okay, I got it. I'll go back to the room to see Xier. She's emotionally unstable." After Li Jinyi finished speaking, he left Li's father's yard and walked towards his and Ling Chenxi's yard.

Li Jinyi returned to the room and saw Ling Chenxi fell asleep, so he used the communicator to call Xu Songming and Hong Shang.

In the yard, Li Jinyi discussed with two of his men and decided that Xu Songming would go to the palace to replace the emperor's secret guard leader Wei Dai, and let Hong Chang notify the secret guards of the General Zhenguo's Mansion to secretly observe the movements of the people in the mansion and report immediately if there was anything unusual.

"In addition," Li Jinyi paused and looked at the two of them seriously, "Protect Xi'er's safety. She must not be harmed in any way. If anything happens, inform me immediately through the communicator."

"Yes, Palace Master!" Xu Songming and Hong Shang answered in unison.

After arranging everything, Li Jinyi turned around and slowly walked towards the room.

After entering the room, he closed the door gently, then walked quietly to the bed and sat down, his eyes gently falling on Ling Chenxi who was sleeping.

At this moment, her sleeping face was peaceful and beautiful, as if emitting a reassuring atmosphere. However, Li Jinyi knew that behind this tranquility, there were endless dangers and unknowns.

He reached out his hand and gently stroked Ling Chenxi's face, his eyes full of care and love. His voice was low and firm: "Xi'er, I won't let anything happen to you here. I will definitely take you away from here and protect you well."

This sentence sounded like a promise to himself and also a vow to Ling Chenxi.

Li Jinyi stared at Ling Chenxi silently, and time seemed to stand still at this moment. He was willing to spend his whole life to protect her, even at any cost.

As the night deepened, everything was silent. Li Jinyi had no desire to sleep. He silently watched over Ling Chenxi, praying that she would calm down quickly and have a better future.

The next morning, Ling Chenxi woke up and saw Li Jinyi meditating at the tea table in the room. He smiled and stood up, gently got out of bed and walked to her side, gently stroked her face and said, "Ayi, wake up, I'm hungry."

Li Jinyi opened his eyes, looked at the naughty Ling Chenxi, and said with a smile, "Okay, let's go out for breakfast."

After washing and tidying themselves up, the two of them walked out of the room and headed towards the reception room of Jinxi Cottage, where Li's father was waiting for them.

The two greeted Father Li. Father Li said happily, "Xi girl, you can live here peacefully. Yi will protect you. I'm leaving first and going to the upper realm to report to the Immortal Emperor about what happened here."

The touching man was speaking in the meeting room when there was an urgent knock on the door outside.

Li Jinyi and Ling Chenxi looked at each other, feeling a little uneasy. Li Jinyi quickly stepped forward to open the door, only to see Ling Chenhong and Luo Yiyang standing outside the door: "Master Li, I'm sorry to bother you so early in the morning. Is Xi'er here?"

"Second brother, cousin, come in!" Ling Chenxi said behind Li Jinyi.

"Xier, I bought some breakfast on the way here, thinking you haven't eaten yet." Luo Yiyang said.

Li Jinyi frowned and said, "Come in."

Entering the reception room, Ling Chenxi asked directly, "Second brother, cousin, what are you doing here?"

"Xi'er, after you left last night, my father and I expressed our stance in front of the ancestor and grandfather. My father said that he only wants you as his daughter and asked to leave the Ling family." Ling Chenhong said.

"And my Luo family. It was my grandfather who asked Ancestor Ling to expel you from the Ling family, but you will always be the granddaughter of the Luo family." Luo Yiyang said.

"Second brother, cousin." Ling Chenxi said with sobs. Li Jinyi gently comforted her beside her.

"In that case, what are your plans for the future?" Li Jinyi asked.

"I plan to rescue my eldest brother first, and then we will follow you, Xier. You won't refuse to take us in, right?" Ling Chenxi said.

"We will return to the Luo family and concentrate on cultivation in the future. We will strive to ascend to heaven as soon as possible," Luo Yiyang continued.

"Well, that's fine." Li Jinyi nodded in agreement, "But you still have to be careful of the other people in the Ling family."

"Don't worry, we will pay attention." Ling Chenhong and Luo Yiyang said at the same time.

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Let's have breakfast together." Li Jinyi changed the subject to avoid making the atmosphere too heavy.

The four of them sat around the table and ate breakfast. Although the future was full of uncertainty, they felt much more relaxed at the moment.
