The next day, Ling Yun had breakfast with Lian Bing and the others and conveyed the plan he had already thought of to them.

"Are you really going to drop out of college, Yun'er?" Ling Ling asked in surprise.

Ling Yun nodded to her. "Going to college was a waste of my time, so I decided to drop out and focus on my cultivation."

"Have you discussed it with our mom?"

"Not yet, but I will go home and discuss this matter with her first." Ling Yun then turned to Zhao Yao. "I want you to move Ling Technology Enterprise to Hangzhou. That way, we don't have to live in different cities, and you can supervise both companies more easily."

"All right, I will soon discuss it with the other shareholders." Zhao Yao had thought about it himself, especially since she also had to take care of Ling Yun's company, so she thought it would be better if the two companies' headquarters were in the same city. She is also considering merging the two companies, but the process is complicated because both have different shareholders.

Ling Yun nodded and said. "I'm going back to Hangzhou to talk to mom. Moreover, I need to improve my fighting abilities as soon as possible, and Big Sis Xiao must be looking forward to training me."

"You can go back in peace, and I will stay here to protect them for now." Lian Bing had already decided to support Ling Yun; protecting them was all she could do now.

"I'm coming with you, Master." Yun Mingyue tugged at his sleeves as she pleaded with her teary fox eyes.

Ling Yun and the others burst out laughing at her childish behavior. He then asked Feng Xing, Yi Shu, Yun Mingyue, and Ye Jing to enter the Yin-Yang Chamber.

After that, Ling Xi created a barrier in the Ling House to protect them, and she brought Ling Yun back to Hangzhou afterward.

On the other hand, Zhao Yao, Ling Ling, Ling Xiya, and Lian Bing went to Ling Technology Enterprise for a meeting with shareholders to discuss moving their headquarters.

Hangzhou House

Ling Yun was already sitting in the living room with his women, Xiao Xiao, Shi Yao, and Lei Lin. He then told them about the incident at the Ling House, making them frown.

"I didn't expect that woman to attack them." Xiao Xiao said with a heavy sigh, but he was also relieved that Ling Yun had managed to save them, plus he had also captured Mo Hongling.

Shi Yao then asked him. "What about Mo Yu? Did you also do something to him?"

"I haven't done anything to him for now." Ling Yun replied with a shake of his head. "Me and Ling Xi also almost caught Mo Hongling's partner, but he managed to escape us, and I'm sure he won't dare to attack them for now."

"Who is that fox girl, Son? Is she your contracted beast too?" Yi Mingxia suddenly asked as she looked at Yun Mingyue sitting on Ling Yun's lap.

Ling Yun chuckled at his mother's question; he gently caressed Yun Mingyue's head and explained it to them. "She is Mingyue. She died because of Mo Hongling's action, so I used my technique to turn her into a demon like Duan Wu, and she has now turned into a nine-tailed fox girl."

"Nine-tail fox demon beast?" Xiao Xiao exclaimed in shock, and as a descendant of beasts, he naturally knew about the nine-tail fox. Although it wasn't as powerful as the dragon and phoenix, it was also one of the strongest beasts.

"Since my technique turned her into random demons, I didn't expect her to become a nine-tail fox."

The Yi Sisters, Ling Yin, Song Mei, and Liu Qiyue, gawked after hearing Ling Yun's explanation, and they stared at Yun Mingyue in awe, mainly because of her drastic change.

At first, Yun Mingyue looked like an aged woman, but now she has turned into a young girl, even younger than her daughter. Her face was also lovely, but her blood-red eyes also made them shiver.

"But alas, she doesn't have her old memories, so she doesn't recognize all of you." Ling Yun said with a sigh; he still felt guilty for coming late and couldn't save Yun Mingyue from Mo Hongling.

They looked at her with pity, but they were strangely relieved. They hoped that with the reborn Yun Mingyue, Ling Yun would be able to forget his grudge against her.

Ling Yun then turned to his mother. "Mom, I decided to drop out of my college."

"Are you serious about it, Yun'er?" Yi Mingxia still couldn't believe that her son would decide to drop out of college, especially since he had tried so hard to be accepted into the campus.

Ling Yun nodded to her. "I'm serious, mom. Back then, I was just an ordinary human, so I was very eager to study at that campus, but everything has changed now. Since I've become a cultivator, I want to focus more on my cultivation and choose to drop out."

"Sister Mingxia, I think it's fine if Yun'er drops out of her college and lets her focus on cultivating." Since she became a cultivator, and Lei Lin taught her many things about cultivators and the like, Ling Yin was also eager to cultivate and practice, so she thought it would be better if Ling Yun dropped out of college and focused on his cultivation.

Yi Mingzhu, Song Mei, Duan Wu, and Tang Zhiyi also tried to persuade Yi Mingxia to accept Ling Yun's decision.

"All right. Since you've decided, I will support you." After thinking for some time, Yi Mingxia finally agreed with her son's decision, and she then turned to Ye Jing. "Are you also going to drop out?"

Ye Jing answered him directly. "At first, I still wanted to continue my studies, but the incident at Ling House made me realize many things. Since I was no longer an ordinary human, and some cultivators were after me, I changed my mind and chose to drop out. Moreover, I don't want to depend on Yun and Sister Ling Xi all the time, so I will focus on cultivating and practicing."

"I see." Yi Mingxia nodded in understanding and sighed in her heart.

On the other hand, Xiao Xiao, Shi Yao, and Lei Lin smiled in satisfaction at their decision; they also wanted that Ling Yun and his women focus more on their cultivation than their other affairs.

After that, Yi Mingxia went to her coffee shop. Yi Mingzhu, Tang Zhiyi, Duan Wu, and Liu Qiyue went to his company.

Meanwhile, Ling Yun and Ye Jing went to their campus to take care of their withdrawal from their campus.

"Have you told your parents about this, Jing'er?" Ling Yun asked as they walked into their campus hand in hand.

Ye Jing nodded to him. "I've sent my father a voice transmission, and he has agreed with my decision; I also asked him to tell my mother about it."

"That's good."

Suddenly, a woman called out to him from a distance. "Ling Yun!"

They turned to the woman, and he asked her. "Are you waiting for me, Mei Yi?"

"Yes." Mei Yi replied with a nod, and she glanced at Ye Jing. "Is she your girlfriend?"

"Yes." Ling Yun answered Mei Yi truthfully. "She is Ye Jing."

Mei Yi nodded in understanding, but she felt sad in her heart. Even so, she looked at Ye Jing with a smile and stretched out her hand. "Nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too." Ye Jing answered Mei Yi's hand briefly and turned to Ling Yun. "I will wait for you in front of the campus office."

"All right." After Ye Jing left them, Ling Yun asked Mei Yi again. "How about we go to the cafeteria?"

"En." Mei Yin nodded at him.

After they bought drinks, they sat across from each other, but Mei Yi kept quiet and lost in thought.

Seeing her like that, Ling Yun asked. "Why are you waiting for me? Is there something you want to talk to me about?"

"I-" Mei Yi did not continue as she felt lost as to what to say to Ling Yun.

Ling Xi then came out, floated behind Ling Yun, and sent a sound transmission to Mei Yi. 'Hey, Little Girl! If you are attracted to him, you should tell him the truth. If you don't say it now, you won't have another chance.'

Mei Yi was surprised to hear Ling Xi's voice in her mind, and she asked, raising her eyebrows. 'Huh? What do you mean by that? Why won't I have another chance?'

'He'll be dropping out of college, so you won't see each other after today.'

'What!?' Mei Yi was shocked to hear that, and she then looked at Ling Yun in a dilemma. After all, she already had a fianc and didn't know him. However, the incident in the empty building made her think about him constantly, so she decided to meet him.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Ling Yun asked in confusion. "Anyway, I will drop out of this campus starting today."

"Is that true?" Mei Yi asked in a weak tone.

"Yes." Ling Yun nodded to her. "I'm going far away to do something, so I decided on that."
