Although Xiao Lingchen was already Ruan Xingluo's Dao companion and Ruan Aotian's son-in-law, Ruan Aotian had previously shown an approving attitude towards him without any explicit confirmation.

Xiao Lingchen was unsure of Ruan Aotian's true thoughts until this moment when he clearly took a stand for him. This made Xiao Lingchen certain that Ruan Aotian truly recognized him and was willing to help him!

After confirming Ruan Aotian's intentions, Xiao Lingchen nodded heavily.

"Thank you, Father-in-law. If there's a need, I won't hesitate to ask for your help."
