Qin Yuechi's expression was tense; what she feared most was that Qin Chen would resent his father.

After all, a father who left his mother and child in one place for over ten years without a single visit would make anyone feel anger. She had heard far too many stories like this.

“Chen'er, you have to believe your mother. Your father is definitely not that kind of person.”

Qin Yuechi gritted her teeth, and the trust and determination in her gaze made Qin Chen unable to help but take a second look.

“Then, Mother, why don’t you go look for him?”

Qin Chen could see that his mother still held deep feelings for his father and had not forgotten him all these years.

Qin Yuechi sighed softly, “Actually, over the years, I have always wanted to find your father. However, I couldn’t bear to take you on that journey. It would certainly be fraught with dangers; I didn’t want you to get involved in such peril. I just hope you can be safe, after all, the previous you...”

Although Qin Yuechi didn’t finish her sentence, Qin Chen understood her meaning. The previous him was weak and unable to awaken his bloodline. If Qin Yuechi had truly chosen to leave, he would have probably been killed by Zhao Feng in a matter of days.

Now, seeing his mother's change and understanding his strength, she once again had the thought of searching for his father.

Thinking about the pain his mother had quietly endured for him all these years, Qin Chen couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.

“Mother.” He revealed a warm smile and said softly, “You go ahead. I support you. Find him and ask him why he broke his promise, abandoning us here for over ten years without contact.”

Qin Chen could not tolerate such a man. No matter what issues arose, leaving mother and child here without a word for over a decade was a dereliction of duty.

However, he respected his mother’s choice and hoped she could find her own happiness.

Qin Yuechi's eyes suddenly turned red, staring blankly at Qin Chen. She did not expect her son to be so understanding and empathetic towards her.

She bit her lip tightly, holding back tears, and nodded forcefully.

“Yuechi, don’t worry. If you leave, I will take good care of Chen'er and won’t let him suffer any grievances.”

At that moment, Qin Batian spoke up gently from the side.

“Father, thank you for your support.”

Tears finally fell from Qin Yuechi's eyes.

In fact, all these years, if it weren't for Qin Batian's silent support, Qin Yuechi wouldn't have been able to endure.

Back then, she left impulsively, but when she returned with Qin Chen, Qin Batian not only did not blame her but had always stood by her side.

Now, with Qin Chen supporting and understanding her, Qin Yuechi felt for a moment that she was the happiest person in the world.

“Thank you, Chen'er.” Qin Yuechi choked up, saying, “Next, I will guide you for a while and take care of some matters for you. Those who dared to harm you will not be allowed to have an easy time.”

Qin Yuechi’s gaze flashed, showing a fierce glint, and an indescribable aura radiated from her.

Qin Chen couldn’t help but be stunned. To be honest, he was not used to seeing his mother transform from her previous weakness into such a strong presence.

However, he could also see that Qin Yuechi still had some worries about him.

“Mother, don’t worry. I can handle everything, and it won’t be long before I may even leave the Northwest Five Nations to see a broader world.”

Qin Chen smiled. If he wanted to grow, he could not remain cooped up in a place like the Northwest Five Nations.

After all, he had deep-seated grudges to settle. If he didn't hurry, wouldn't that just let Shangguan Xier and Feng Shaoyu live more freely?

Qin Yuechi was taken aback, then smiled, “Chen'er, you’re right. The Northwest Five Nations are indeed too small. Your father once heard that the Northwest region was just a speck on the map of Tianwu Continent. However, even if you want to leave, make sure to participate in the rematch of the Five Nations Grand Competition first. That ancient Southern Capital’s inheritance ruins, I heard your father say, are extraordinary, and you cannot miss them.”
