Tang Xiao and Yi An were naked in the bathtub while waiting for the water to fill it.
Tang Xiao hugged Yi An, who was leaning against his chest, from behind. "Real cultivators are different from those in the movies, Yi'er. Not everyone can become a cultivator, and they must have cultivation veins to become one. You can't meet them here because they live in a separate place from ordinary people, and that place is only accessible to cultivators."
"Can I become a cultivator like you?"
"Unfortunately, you were born without cultivation veins, so you can't become a cultivator like me." Yi An looked disappointed after hearing that because she was afraid that Tang Xiao would leave her. "Yi'er, you don't have to be afraid that I'll leave you, okay? Even though you're not a cultivator, I will always accompany you by your side and protect you."
Yi An didn't say anything and returned her gaze forward, but she felt fear in her heart that Tang Xiao would become bored with her and leave her. "Is there anything you can do to make me become a cultivator?"
"Actually, there is a way to help you cultivate like me, but it's difficult to find cultivation veins that are compatible with your body." Tang Xiao hugged Yi An even tighter. "The problem is that cultivation veins aren't easily obtained, and we have to extract them from the bodies of other cultivators, which means killing them."
Yi An was shocked to hear that, and she didn't want Tang Xiao to kill others just to extract their cultivation veins. "Xiao'er, I—"
"You don't have to say anything, okay?" Tang Xiao stopped her by covering her mouth. "I've thought about this matter for a long time, and I am already planning to help you find cultivation veins in the future. Moreover, the situation among cultivators is different from that of ordinary people, and there are too many evil cultivators in that place. Killing and being killed is common among cultivators, and righteous cultivators often kill evil ones."
Yi An pulled his hand down and asked a question. "Does that mean you've killed other cultivators?"
"I once killed a cultivator." Yi An turned to Tang Xiao in shock. "That person was evil, and he was trying to kill me. If I didn't kill him, he would kill me, so I killed him first to protect myself."
"Are there many evil cultivators there? Are they all targeting you?" Yi An asked worriedly.
Tang Xiao nodded before explaining. "There are countless evil cultivators there, especially people from the Xie Clan. All the righteous cultivators have been hunting down members of that clan for a long time, but they're as stubborn as cockroaches, and those people have never been able to eliminate them. The cultivator I killed back then was a member of that clan, so I had no qualms about killing him; otherwise, I would have died in his hands."
"Have you ever killed ordinary people before?"
"No." Tang Xiao was forced to lie because Yi An still didn't know his true identity. "Even though I had the strength to kill them, I couldn't do it because there was a powerful female cultivator protecting them. She would kill any cultivators who dared to attack ordinary people, and she was too powerful because she was the second strongest cultivator in that place."
"What is the name of that female cultivator?"
"Wang Fuxi." Tang Xiao used his qi to turn off the faucet because the bathtub was already full of water. "That woman is indeed a strong cultivator, but many of her family members can't cultivate, and they live in the outside world. She not only protects her family members, but she also protects other ordinary people."
Yi An thought for a moment. "Is that woman related to Wang Xiaogang's family?"
"Haha." Tang Xiao laughed at that and kissed her. "You know there are so many Wang families in our country, right? Honestly, I don't know that woman that well, and there are too many Wang families here, so I don't know which one she's related to."
"Well, you're right about that." Yi An asked another question. "Is Xing'er also a cultivator like you?"
"Xing'er was originally an ordinary person, and I taught her to become a cultivator after we were together." Tang Xiao immediately diverted their conversation. "So, what are your plans after you find much evidence of your husband's affairs with so many women? Are you going to divorce him?"
"Will you protect me and my Yi Family from my husband, Xiao'er?"
"I will." Tang Xiao answered in a firm voice. "I won't let your husband harm you or your family, so you don't need to worry about their safety. Once you've made up your mind, I'll take you away from the Ouyang House, and we can find a house to live in together."
Even though she already knew that Tang Xiao was a cultivator, Yi An was still hesitant to make the decision to divorce Ouyang Hong, mainly because she was afraid that he would order his subordinates to do bad things to her family. She had long wanted to divorce her husband even before she found ample evidence of his affair, especially since he had often treated her badly in the past. However, she never dared to make the decision because she was afraid her family would be in danger if she decided to divorce him, but she couldn't take it anymore after finding all the evidence of his affair, and the latest was his affair with her personal assistant.
Yi An took a deep breath and turned to hug Tang Xiao. "Promise me that you will protect me and my family from my husband."
"I promise," Tang Xiao answered without hesitation and hugged her. "Even though I can't kill your husband because of Wang Fuxi, I can protect you and your family from him, so you don't have to worry about that."
Yi An nodded slightly and raised her head. "After this, the two of us will go straight to my lawyer's office, and I will ask him to process my divorce from my husband. After that, we will return to the Ouyang house to collect my personal belongings, and I will bring my daughter to live with me."
"Alright." Initially, Tang Xiao wanted to have sex with Yi An, but he changed his mind, and they immediately finished their shower before leaving the hotel.

After completing their breakthrough, Tang Huang, Tang Yin, Mu Qingge, and Tantai Lingyan immediately exited the ark to continue their journey to the Sun Clan.
Before they exited, Tang Yin asked Xiao Ai to send Yu Xiaoling, Jessica, and Zhao Yuxian out of the ark. Zhao Qing went out at the same time as them, mainly because she had to go to the late Tang Ye's company to take care of some things.
After that, Yu Xiaoling and Jessica went to Tianmei to take care of the company, and Zhao Yuxian decided to join them since her twin daughters would be away for a few days.
Mu Ling decided to leave the ark and return to the Mu House, but Mu Yan chose to stay inside to stabilize her newly broken-through cultivation.
Tang Xiao's clone had also left the ark and returned to Earth II, and he immediately changed his disguise so that people wouldn't recognize him. He didn't go to the Ming Clan's battle arena, and he trained in the forest by himself.

Meanwhile, Xing Xing didn't immediately leave the ark, and she accompanied Chu Lingxi while explaining many things to her mother, especially about Tang Xiao's relationship with Tang Yin and all the other women.
Initially, Chu Lingxi was shocked to hear about Tang Xiao and Tang Yin's relationship, but Xiao Ai helped Xing Xing explain it to her mother.
Xiao Ai pointed out several things to Chu Lingxi, especially the fact that Tang Xiao was no longer human but a member of the Celestial Race. She proved this by showing that his blood was no longer red like that of ordinary humans, but it had become violet-gold like that of the Celestial Race.
Xiao Ai also showed Chu Ling several videos of her healing and modifying Tang Xiao's body, especially since his body was in a dire condition after he was shot and fell into the deep ravine, which made him and Tang Yin no longer related.
Even though she still felt strange about it all, Chu Lingxi chose to accept all of Xiao Ai's explanations because she had already shown a lot of evidence about Tang Xiao's changes. After that, Xing Xing took her mother out of the ark because they were still in another city, and they would return to their city today.

They had arrived at the lawyer's office, and Yi An met her lawyer and asked him to take care of her divorce from Ouyang Hong as soon as possible. She handed over many videos of her husband's affair to her lawyer, including his sex video with Gong Qingyan.
The lawyer was shocked when he saw Ouyang Hong's sex video with Gong Qingyan, and he recognized the woman's identity. He did not provide any comments about the videos, and he immediately agreed to Yi An's request to arrange her divorce.
After Yi An's business there was finished, Tang Xiao brought her back to the Ouyang House. They arrived at the same time as Ouyang Qing, who had just returned from Lin Yan's house. "Qing'er, I've decided to divorce your father."
