With that in mind, Miao Wanliang naturally accepted them.

And precisely because of this, he became even more motivated in his duties.

Shi Xiao Hei was anxiously waiting within the little black room, having never encountered such a situation before, her heart becoming increasingly panicked and uneasy.

And it was at this moment that the door opened!

The dim light from outside shined in, and Shi Xiao Hei thought it was meal delivery, merely lifting her head slightly.

But she quickly realized something was amiss.

A gentle surge of Spiritual Power settled upon her, and the Restriction that sealed her Cultivation Level was unexpectedly unlocked.

“Miss Shi, someone has come to bail you out, you may leave.”

Looking at the woman in dark green military uniform before her, who had a chilly demeanor and a tall figure, Shi Xiao Hei’s originally blank expression suddenly came to life.

“Is it the official authority of Yu Wood City? Or someone from Wangwu Cave Heaven?”

Shi Xiao Hei felt the restraints lifting, stood up from the chair, stretched her limbs, and asked eagerly.

“It’s from Dance Tool Dao Academy. That eminent person personally reached out to our commander, explaining the situation and willing to vouch that you absolutely would not disclose any secrets of this place, so the commander allowed me to release you.”

Hearing this, Shi Xiao Hei wore a face full of confusion.

From the Dance Tool Dao Academy?

She hadn’t expected that those coming to bail her out would be people from her alma mater.

Who could it be?

But soon, Shi Xiao Hei thought of the person from Dance Tool Dao Academy who had the highest status and influence in this domain.

She was promptly taken to the reception room.

Chen Mobai’s familiar and majestic figure kindled an urge within her to cry.

“Uncle Chen!”

Had it not been for Miao Wanliang’s presence next to Chen Mobai, Shi Xiao Hei really wanted to throw herself into his arms and cry her heart out.

“Mr. Chen, I’m handing her over to you. It’s only because you came personally to vouch for her that I didn’t wait for the Hall of Orthodox Law to send someone over to thoroughly investigate before releasing her.”

Miao Wanliang’s statement compelled Chen Mobai to express his thanks; after shaking hands, Miao Wanliang personally drove the father and daughter out.

“Many thanks to Commander Miao.”

At the gate of the base, after Chen Mobai finished speaking, he took Shi Xiao Hei beyond the enveloping scope of the Large Formation.

The moment they stepped out, the office building inside, the Cultivators on guard, and the huge array of military equipment on the open ground all vanished from sight—obviously concealed by the Large Formation.

“Uncle Chen, I’ve caused you trouble this time.”

Once outside, Shi Xiao Hei immediately started apologizing to Chen Mobai.

“How did you end up in this place? This is a secret base directly overseen by the Hall of Orthodox Law, and even I have no jurisdiction here.”

Chen Mobai furrowed his brows and asked, pretending to be serious.

“I… I had an argument with my mom, and ran off in a huff; I didn’t expect to end up here.”

Shi Xiao Hei couldn’t confess it was because she suddenly gained another father, and her mentality completely collapsed.

“Next time you can’t do this. If I hadn’t finished my business at Qing Sang Academy and gone to visit your home, only to learn from your mother that you had been missing for five days, you might have suffered for a few more days.”

Chen Mobai’s somewhat reproachful words left Shi Xiao Hei feeling even more embarrassed, and she nodded softly with her head lowered.

“Let’s get you home first, your mother is very worried about you.”

It was the truth—since Shi Xiao Hei ran out of Fuxia Flower Shop, Shi Wanyu had become deeply concerned, let alone for five consecutive days.

Had it not been for Chen Mobai assuring he would look after her and that there would be no issues, Shi Wanyu might have already reported to the police.

“Uncle Chen, about this matter… can we not tell my mom?”

Shi Xiao Hei hesitantly spoke up, tentatively making a request.

“Why?”

“If she finds out that I trespassed into a military base and was detained for so long, she will definitely worry like mad. I’ll tell her I spent five days outside clearing my head, readjusting my mood. Please!”

Shi Xiao Hei clasped her hands in front of Chen Mobai, her delicate and fine little face pleading pitifully.

“Well… okay then!”

His reaction was exactly what Chen Mobai wanted, but on the surface he appeared to reluctantly agree.

“Uncle Chen, you are so good to me. I wish my dad was like you!”

After hearing this, Shi Xiao Hei’s tears turned into laughter, making a remark that caused the corners of Chen Mobai’s mouth to twitch.

I am your dad!

At the entrance to Fuxia Flower Shop, Chen Mobai decided not to go in after dropping off Shi Xiao Hei, preferring to let the mother and daughter clear things up.

“Uncle Chen, come in! I really want to thank you. I picked up some good cooking skills in the Sea Territory, so I’ll prepare a table full of delicious food for you today as a treat.”

But Shi Xiao Hei was very polite in inviting Chen Mobai; she owed her release from the Military Department to his intervention.

In her view, having met Chen Mobai only a few times and him being willing to get her out of the Military Department was a great favor.

She had to express her gratitude properly.

Unable to refuse her, Chen Mobai had no choice but to enter the flower shop.

Seeing the father and daughter enter, Shi Wanyu was momentarily stunned, her face a portrait of disbelief.

“Mom, I just went out to clear my head for a few days. Why did you have to trouble Mr. Chen to look for me?”

Shi Xiao Hei immediately used the excuse they’d agreed upon upon entering.

Hearing this, Shi Wanyu looked puzzled.

Chen Mobai quickly conveyed a message to her not to delve into it and to go along with her daughter’s explanation.

Although Shi Wanyu didn’t understand the truth, seeing her daughter return with her father made her happy inside, and she picked up Shi Xiao Hei’s narrative and carried on.
