"Where am I?"

Zhou Yuan looked right and left and did not recognize this place.

"You're home, honey."

A voice startled Zhou Yuan.

He looked toward the door and saw a beautiful woman walking into the room and approaching him.

"Mom?"

Zhou Yuan was surprised to find that it was his mother.

Luo Xian smiled and sat beside him.

There was a sense of worry on her face.

"Promise me that you won't put yourself in danger again?"

Zhou Yuan became flustered when he heard this. But the next second, he remembered about the level 7 dungeon.

"Ah, was I unconscious back then?" Zhou Yuan asked curiously.

"Your uncle brought you here in an unconscious state. It's been three days already, I'm glad you're awake." Said Luo Xian with a smile as she stroked Zhou Yuan's hair.

"So, I was knocked unconscious? I don't remember much of that day." Zhou Yuan frowned.

As he recalls, he was holding a pointed stone and that boundless darkness entered the stone.

He felt it firsthand that the stone was acting as a medium for him to absorb that boundless darkness.

At that moment, he felt something enter his body, so much so that he lost consciousness.

And in an instant, he opened his eyes and arrived here.

................

"So you've met uncle? I honestly didn't expect him to be alive." Said Zhou Yuan.

"Yes, I was surprised when I saw him coming to carry you. I remember very well the time when the building exploded, I thought Kuei was dead, but he wasn't. Thank you, Yuan'er." Said Luo Xian sincerely.

"It doesn't matter, mom, we are family." Said Zhou Yuan with a smile.

"You're right." Luo Xian smiled and hugged Zhou Yuan gently.

Zhou Yuan smiled, his mother's embrace was really comfortable, putting his mind at ease.

............

At this time, Zhou Yuan was having lunch alone with his mother.

Her mother had already informed Ji Luoxue that he had regained consciousness, and Ji Luoxue was also on her way to the Zhou residence to meet Zhou Yuan.

"So, where is Uncle Kuei now?" Zhou Yuan asked curiously.

"Your uncle is at the Zhou group company with your father, he is safer there." Said Luo Xian.

"Oh right, how would the empire react when they heard their proud prison was broken?" Asked Zhou Yuan with a smirk.

"Some people from the empire came here asking for your uncle. Of course, I said no, and fortunately there was someone who claimed to be your servant who fought against them. He was quite strong, your father said he was a true qi realm cultivator. Is he really your servant?" Asked Luo Xian curiously.

"I released him from the imperial prison, well, that's why he's loyal to me." Said Zhou Yuan.

"I see, that makes sense." Luo Xian nodded.

"Then, what about the emperor's reaction? Seeing as our family is doing well, I don't believe they have done anything." Said Zhou Yuan confusedly.

Zhou Yuan thought critically if the emperor was angry, they could just send special forces to deal with the Zhou family.

But it's been three days and his family is fine

"If it's about the emperor, don't you think about the public's reaction first?" Said Luo Xian with a smile.

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan stroked his chin as he thought about something.

A few seconds later, he realized something.

"Ah, I just noticed, of course, they put public trust first. If news of the imperial prison were broken into, the public's belief about the impossibility of breaking into the imperial prison would definitely be destroyed. That made many people doubt the safety of the imperial prison.

And at the same time same, the criminals no longer fear about how scary the imperial prison is, it will make the crime rate even higher. I think the emperor is wise enough to think about that." Said Zhou Yuan with a smile.

"My son is very smart. Yes, I was thinking the same thing, what you said is what I was thinking." Said Luo Xian with a smile.

"There's no other way than that, well, at least we can't let our guard down." Said Zhou Yuan.

"You're right."

...............

Zhou Yuan and Luo Xian had finished their lunch, and outside, the sound of a car's exhaust could be heard.

Zhou Yuan who heard that immediately recognized who it was.

He walked out of the house and saw a beautiful woman getting out of the car.

But he frowned when he saw the woman, it wasn't Ji Luoxue.

The beautiful woman smiled and took off the sunglasses she was wearing, showing her beautiful crimson pupils, then, she walked over to Zhou Yuan.

"Who are you?" Zhou Yuan frowned.

"Are we not acquainted yet? I am Qin Xian'er, the princess of the empire." Said Qin Xian'er with a smile as she stretched out her hand.

Zhou Yuan was surprised when he heard this, she turned out to be the princess of the empire. He didn't know Qin Xian'er at all.

He shook Qin Xian'er's hand.

"I am Zhou Yuan." Said Zhou Yuan lightly.

They shook hands lightly.

"I've heard of you a few times, but seeing you in person is something different." Said Qin Xian'er lightly.

"Shouldn't that be my words?" Said Zhou Yuan blankly.

"Haha, just kidding. But to be honest, you are very handsome, much more handsome than my brothers and the second generation that I have met." Said Qin Xian'er with a smile.

"Sometimes you have to look inside a person first." Said Zhou Yuan lightly.

"I can see you are very different from them." Qin Xian'er smiled.

"Well, I'm much more arrogant compared to the second generation you've met. Even if you compare, they are less arrogant than me." Said Zhou Yuan indifferently.

Qin Xian'er smiled instead when she heard this.

In the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of Zhou Yuan and clutched his chest.

She closed her eyes and leaned against Zhou Yuan's chest.

"But I feel a big difference here."
