Cultivation Online novel Chapter 397

Chapter 397 - Looking For Solutions

After accepting the Dragon Ruby Ring from Yuan, Meixiu immediately wore the ring on her right hand, as it would draw too much attention if she wore it on the other hand.

Min Li watched their little section with a weird look on her face, and she silently wondered if they were really just ’friends’ or something more than that.

"Okay, Disciple Min. Let’s talk more about the situation. What would you like me to do for you in this situation? Because I cannot join your family, but if I don’t, you’ll be unjustly punished by your parents, and I cannot do nothing about it after learning about it." Yuan sat down and asked her.

"I honestly don’t know. I have been thinking about it ever since I received my father’s message, but I cannot think of a good solution to my problem. Perhaps I was never destined to ascend to the Spirit Heaven. Maybe it’s my fate to stay in the Lower Heaven and be treated like an object by my family who will eventually sell me to another family, where I’ll be treated even worse." Min Li shuddered at the thought of being sold to another family and becoming their plaything.

"I won’t let that happen to you," Yuan said with a stern look on his face.

And he continued, "I know exactly how it feels to be treated badly by your own parents. Although I don’t know what I can do, I will definitely do something about it. I promise. And even though you say it’s not my fault, it is my problem since I am the reason you’re in this situation."

"Disciple Yuan... Thank you... And sorry..." Min Li felt a strong urge to pounce at Yuan and kiss him at this moment, but she restrained herself by crying instead.

"Give me a few days to think about it, okay? I will try to think of something in the meantime." Yuan said to her.

"Okay." Min Li nodded.

Sometime later, Min Li returned to her own living quarters.

Once Min Li left the scene, Yuan laid back on the couch in an exhausted manner.

"What should I do now? Xiao Hua! Feng Feng! Yingying! Anybody!" Yuan cried for their help.

The three servants appeared before him a moment later.

"I told you the Seven Legacy Families are a bunch of selfish people who only care about their reputation, Young Master. I say you should stay as far away from the Min Family as possible." Feng Yuxiang said to him.

"But what about Disciple Min’s situation? I cannot ignore her!" Yuan said.

"As much as I hate to say this, Young Master, but you should probably ignore her as well and let her handle the situation by herself since helping her might bring unwanted trouble for you. The cultivation world is sometimes cold-hearted and brutal like this..."

Yuan shook his head and said in a calm voice, "The cultivation world may be cold-hearted, but I am not like that. I may be a Cultivator, but the cultivation world does not and will not define my character or morals."

Feng Yuxiang was speechless after hearing his grand speech that touched her heart.
