Getting a Sugar Mommy in Cultivation World!!-Chapter 226 Parting Ways! (part1)
Either no one saw or they chose to ignore the fact that Ma Li, unlike everyone else, came out of the portal as if she was jumping. She perfectly landed on her feet before meeting a hard wall to her face.
Oh, Wait!
It was just her overprotective father who was crushing her under his bear hug until her mother butted in and pulled the guy by his collar. She threw him away like a piece of trash and looked at her daughter for signs of injuries before hugging her to her heart's content.
"Did you face any dangers inside, dear?" Shi Jie asked warmly as she caressed her daughter's head. She got an instant reply from her daughter.
"No, Brother Long kept me safe. He even helped me obtain a technique suitable for me!"
Ruo'er, who was passing by a little far away, stopped in her tracks. She could swear she heard the name Long, but the place was so much drowned in noise that she could not be sure if she heard it correctly or not.
As Ma Li enthusiastically summarized her trip, Shi Jie's eyes flashed with light as she asked another question.
"Did you make any progress with what I asked?"
"Wha—" Hearing her mother's words, Ma Li blushed, remembering her memories of how she behaved inside the domain.
'What a useless pervert~' Shi Jie shook her head seeing her daughter's embarrassment and turned to look towards the boy who was separating after giving a hug to his 'mother'.
"Let's go, we should thank the boy for his help." Looking back, she ordered her husband who was walking back towards them. He nodded showing his agreement, after all, the boy was the reason their daughter was able to come out alive from this place.

"Thank you for helping my daughter." Noah turned to look in the direction from where Ma Li was walking towards them along with her parents. Noah nodded in response. He was more curious as to why Xin Yan suddenly became so silent. freeweɓnovel.cøm
"Ahem! If there is anything you need from me, you can always tell me." Ma Mingli coughed and offered with a straight face. While in his mind, he was grinning, thinking, how could someone like Noah who was favored by someone like Yu Ming and had a mother like Xin Yan need anything from him?
In this way, it was the best offer for him. He did not have to pay anything to the boy, but what he did not expect was…
"Funny you mention that I have a work just for you!" Noah's words caused the man to freeze in shock, and his smile faltered. Seeing the expression, Noah smiled menacingly behind the mask.
"I will explain the details to you after I come back. Thanks for the offer~" Noah's amused voice stabbed the man right in the heart.
"You are going somewhere?" Ma Li asked curiously as she heard his words; she did not even bother to look at the hurt expression of her father.
"I need to settle some things." Noah gave a vague explanation as he looked towards the place where he sensed Lin Dan looking at him from.
"Oh, okay." Ma Li did not find anything wrong with his words, but that did not mean Shi Jie and Ma Mingli also thought the same. They noticed him looking away and putting his past together. He could more or less guess what he was thinking.
"Are you sure about this?"
"What might you be talking about?"
The City Lord asked with a serious expression; he was worried that Noah might be acting on impulse and would suffer instead. But seeing his dismissive attitude, he shook his head.
"Nothing."
'There must be something that he has to back up the nonchalant attitude of his.' Thinking of this, he looked towards his wife as if sending her a signal. Taking the hint, Shi Jie looked towards Xin Yan and asked politely.
"Do you plan to return with us now? We can drop you anywhere you like. "
"No need, we will be leaving this place after dealing with the mess here and start our journey." Shi Jie did not know, but she felt Xin Yan's voice sounded a little cold and hoarse. "If that's your decision, I will not pressure you. See you after you are free with this work." Shi Jie hugged Xin Yan before walking towards her family.
Ma Li also gave Noah a small hug before leaving, but Ma Mingli only gave him a stink eye.
They said their goodbyes to the other sect master before they all boarded their ship to leave the place.

"I am happy you are back safely." Seeing that they finally got some privacy, Yu Ming came forward and smiled at Noah warmly. Ai did not say anything and silently stood behind Yu Ming, looking at Noah with a wary look well hidden in her eyes. The feeling she felt a few moments ago was still fresh in her mind.
She started to analyze the changes in her young miss silently, to see if there were any signs of mind-altering techniques. As she kept her eye on Noah, Xin Yan kept her eyes on the woman.
"Thanks for worrying about me. Who is this?" Feeling the looks coming from the woman standing behind Yu Ming like a dedicated sub-servant.
"This is Ai! Mother's most trusted maid." Noah nodded at the maid hearing the introduction. He did not care what the maid was thinking or misunderstanding. For him, as long as people don't act on their misunderstandings they are eventually resolved sooner or later.
The maid was shocked to see the way Yu Ming introduced her to the boy; she was talking like she had told everything or most of the things about her family to the masked. She was torn between thinking whether meeting the boy was a curse or a blessing for Yu Ming.
After all, she could tell, he was no ordinary boy!
"So are you ready for the answer?" Noah suddenly smiled behind the mask and changed the topic. He could tell that in her worry for him, Yu Ming even forgot the most important question in her life. The question she had been looking for answers for her whole life.
