The Way of The Dao

"Shasha wants to marry you, Master!"

The next moment, Qing Sha stretched up and boldly kissed Ling Tian's cheek before sitting back down and settling into Ling Tian's lap; her expression as happy as if she had finally revealed her heart's desire.

The sound of a pin dropping to the floor could be heard at this moment as silence ruled the living room.

Everyone looked at Qing Sha, who was completely happy as if Ling Tian had really accepted her as she snuggled closer to his chest. Her complexion was also slightly flushed, further increasing her charm and cuteness.

Qing Sha's heart was beating rapidly, with happiness filling her heart as she constantly moved her little feet and leaned on Ling Tian.

Although at first, since Qing Sha had come into this world with Ling Tian and had noticed the relationship between Ling Tian and her big sisters, she still doubted and thought it was normal. But now that she heard from Ling Tian himself that her big sisters would become his wives, Qing Sha's heart was anxious and she did not want Ling Tian to stop loving her. Ling Tian was the first person to love her since they met, someone willing to play with her and care for her to the point of healing her and making her very happy. Therefore, Ling Tian was the most important person in her heart, so her feelings for him were the purest and sweetest.

Qing Sha wanted to always be with Ling Tian, so she was also aware that people loved each other and then they would have a family, so she also said those words, expressing the innocent wish of her heart.

Ling Tian was dumbfounded when he heard this and did not see Qing Sha's bold move coming, wondering if he had really woken up or he was still kept dreaming and this girl was saying meaningless things.

"Yinyin wants to marry you too, Master!"

But before Ling Tian said anything, once again, the same prayer and intent was said, but this time, it was Lan Yin's voice that was heard.

Lan Yin also moved swiftly and before Ling Tian moved, Lan Yin kissed Ling Tian's other cheek before settling back into his lap and hiding even her face in Ling Tian's chest, with her heart beating furiously and her cute little face blushing.

Likewise, in Lan Yin's sweet heart, Ling Tian was the most important person to her. From playing with her, taking care of her, feeding her and taking her out for fun, her feelings for Ling Tian were so intense and deep. In addition to also not wanting Ling Tian to stop loving her in the future, Lan Yin learned from Qing Sha's cunning and thoughts and also declared that she wanted to be with Ling Tian forever.

Even Tang Wanying and the other women could not help but be surprised that these little girls would be so bold in saying such words as wanting to marry Ling Tian. Although somehow Lan Yin and Qing Sha were showing obvious feelings towards Ling Tian, they still did not believe that they would say this. It seemed that the feelings of these two girls really were so deep and pure that they could say this.

This time, Ling Tian's expression changed as he could not quite understand what these two girls expressed.

Did they really say that they wanted to marry him?

Ling Tian shook his head inwardly before patting Lan Yin and Qing Sha's heads and saying to them with a somewhat strange smile, "W-what nonsense are you two talking? I am your Master..." Ling Tian's voice even trembled slightly at first, showing that this was something he couldn't process quickly and didn't know what to say.

"I don't care! I want to marry you, Master!" However, Qing Sha shook her head, not wanting to accept what Ling Tian said and quickly clung to him, hugging him while burying her face in his chest just the same, "My mother told me that only my future husband could see me naked, and Master bathed me and saw my body, so I can only marry you. Besides... you also promised to always be with me, Master!" Qing Sha's embarrassed but cunning voice was heard again.

Lan Yin nodded still with her face on Ling Tian's chest, as if to express that she agreed with Qing Sha and would not give up on Ling Tian. Both girls loved Ling Tian very much and he was the most beloved and important person to them.

The atmosphere became somewhat strange as they listened to Ling Tian's conversation with these two girls and watched the development.

Both girls clung tightly to Ling Tian, leaving him dumbfounded. The little white fox nimbly jumped onto Ling Tian's shoulder before nuzzling towards his neck, as if curiously wanting to be taken into account as well.

"Alright..." Ling Tian smiled helplessly as he patted both girls' heads and said, "But it will be when you girls grow up and become very big..." He sensed for some reason that these girls would become so stubborn that they would not back down from this, so he agreed without further thought.

But Ling Tian knew that it was just the childish and innocent thoughts of their age, so he could tell that their feelings towards him might change in the future and they might even find someone else they like. They are his disciples, so Ling Tian didn't want to make them feel bad neither.

But Lan Yin and Qing Sha felt happiness in their sweet hearts and hugged Ling Tian tighter. They didn't even bother to listen to what Ling Tian said afterwards, as if only that acceptance from him was the most important thing to both girls.

The boys laughed when they saw this. Ling Tian had also taken care of them and even bathed them when some of them were so weak the first few days and didn't have the strength to do it on their own due to certain reasons, so Ling Tian took care of them like any father or older brother would.

But these girls clearly are so cunning and smart that they took advantage of what Ling Tian had done and used it to their advantage.

"I see that Master is still charming hearts wherever he is." Sun Xiang's face lit up and a mischievous expression was painted on it as he said, "Other than these beautiful Masters here, will we have any more Masters in the Immortal realm?" A low chuckle came out of his mouth as he slyly looked at Ling Tian.

Yun Mengxin and the other women would become Ling Tian's wives, so they would also be their Mistresses because of the relationship with Ling Tian.

Ying Chen and Shin Wei couldn't help but grin and raised their thumbs in Sun Xiang's direction. Hao Zhentian shook his head wryly, but also couldn't help but smile. Xuanyuan Ling also raised her exquisite eyebrow and looked attentively towards Ling Tian.

Ling Tian looked at Sun Xiang with interest, which made the latter feel a shiver as he recalled the times Ling Tian punished him when he played pranks.

Immortal Realm?

However, most thought there was something strange about them.

Weren't these youths supposed to be from the same world as Ling Tian?

How come it seemed like there had been a long time since they had not seen each other?

But this aroused a critical point to both mothers-in-law and they quickly asked, "Right, little Tian, wouldn't you have another woman from the world you came from?" They did not know if Ling Tian could have a lover in their world.

Ling Tian had an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry when he heard this.

"Aunts, I really don't have any lover or woman in my world." Ling Tian shook his head and cleared the doubts, "I only have my disciples who are like a big family to me and some friends of equal importance."

Both mothers-in-law nodded and believed that. Ling Tian was not someone who told lies, so it could be said that he did not have any lovers. Although it was completely different when thinking if there were any women who would have feelings of love for Ling Tian.

Yet, Long Yuyin and the others narrowed their eyes and looked at Ling Tian, remembering those female disciples and that sworn sister he had told them about.

"It seems like you all have matured deeply and even reached the pinnacle of your cultivation..." Ling Tian changed the topic when he felt the piercing gazes of his women and immediately looked at his disciples who had finally grown up and become great expert cultivators.

Ling Tian could somehow sense and confirm that these guys had reached the Peak of the Great Ascension state and would only have to feel the call to be able to ascend to the Immortal realm. He also felt that Xuanyuan Ling's cultivation base should be more or less at the Body Condensation Early Stage.

"All of us reached the peak of the Great Ascension realm, Master." Hao Zhentian replied and said, "We found many opportunities to grow since you ascended to the Immortal World. As well as we also learned many things and faced all kinds of trials, and finally reached the limit of our cultivation."

Ying Chen, Shin Wei and Sun Xiang nodded their heads, stating that they had all grown quite a lot and had become very strong.

"Although over 300 years would be too short for you to reach the peak, I know that you guys could make it." Ling Tian smiled and sighed, knowing that for every increase in strength and growth, there would also be trials and tribulations to face. He could not imagine all that these children had to experience after he left them alone.

Therefore, Ling Tian proudly looked at these boys, especially Hao Zhentian. Though Ling Tian felt a slight hint of guilt and regret, as he had initially treated Hao Zhentian a little differently before encountering the other children, plus in the end he had also left the responsibility of taking care of the others to him thanks to the cultivation level he had at the time.

"Master..." Ying Chen hesitated before asking, "Why did your strength barely seemed to reach the Golden Core level at that time? Could it be that your strength decreased?" Ying Chen was referring to at that time when Ling Tian arrived on the battlefield and was wearing that strange Dragon mask. His strength back then was weaker than all of them.

Ling Tian smiled bitterly before replying, "A lot of things happened..." His voice stopped as he sensed the presence of other people.

"It's okay, let them pass." Ling Tian waved his hand when he saw that most of them were using their Spirit Senses to scan the guests.

Mu Shen quickly stood up and two people entered. A woman with an appearance of about 40 years old along with young man with an appearance of 18 years old.

These people were clearly Chu Feng and his mother, Jiu Ming.

Everyone looked at these new arrivals. Ling Tian raised his eyebrow as he remained calm upon seeing these two people.

Jiu Ming stepped forward before Ling Tian and watched him for a few seconds with a serious expression. Chu Feng also looked at Ling Tian firmly.

The atmosphere became strange as everyone looked at them.

"Jiu Ming thanks the Heaven Venerable Lord for saving me." And the next moment, Jiu Ming clenched her fists together and bowed to Ling Tian.
