The Way of The Dao

""Master!""

Two happy little childish voices were instantly heard all over the place. The two small shadows that crossed the sky in moments dashed towards Ling Tian.

Ling Tian reacted quickly and distanced himself a little from the embrace between the women. He opened his arms and welcomed with a smile the two small figures who embraced him the next moment.

"It's so great that you are well, my precious little princesses." Ling Tian whispered lovingly as he felt the little bodies cling to him tightly.

It was Lan Yin and Qing Sha who were hugging Ling Tian!

"Master, Yinyin missed you so much!"

"Shasha missed you more, Master!"

Lan Yin and Qing Sha squeezed into Ling Tian's hug, smiling happily with their joyful faces full of happiness. Their bodies clung tightly to Ling Tian while their little hands fiercely grasped Ling Tian's clothes. Joyful little voices filled the place as the joy increased more and more.

Ling Tian's big worries were disappearing more and more, especially with the arrival of these little female disciples of his.

"How did you get here easily?"

Ling Tian asked as he felt a small white ball cross the space and jump onto his shoulder. A spiritual connection different from the one he had with Yun Mengxin and his wives was again reinforced with him as he felt the small presence on his shoulder.

The little white fox with its fluffy, cuddly fur and long, soft tail purred as it appeared at Ling Tian's side. Its tail swayed as it posed naturally and proudly.

"Oh! Here you are, little friend!" Qing Sha noticed the little white fox and exclaimed in surprise.

"Where have you been? We've been looking for you everywhere!" Lan Yin noticed it too and smiled happily.

Qing Sha and Lan Yin looked happily at the little white fox on Ling Tian's shoulder, feeling a relief fill their being to have their little female friend back.

Ling Tian narrowed his eyes slightly at the sight of the little white fox on his shoulder, who only returned the usual proud look she showed from the beginning, as if not letting Ling Tian see through her.

"Yinyin!"

"Shasha!"

Instantly, voices full of relief from the women were heard as they approached and cuddled both girls.

""Big sisters!""

Lan Yin and Qing Sha smiled happily when they saw all their older sisters as well.

Lan Yin and Qing Sha happily hugged Yun Mengxin, Mu Shuiruo, Tang Wanying, Long Yuyin, Zhang Xinya and Shan Qingwu. They all smiled happily as they finally reunited.

"Master..." Gao Xue initiated the question.

"Who are they?" Gao Yue finished the question her twin sister had asked.

"Our sisters or martial aunts?" Zhen Bingluo stammered slightly as she met Yun Mengxin and the others with her gaze.

Shin Wei and Xuanyuan Ling, as well as Ning Xiaoyi, Xi Fei and Nalan Ziqing approached as well, wanting to know what was going on, as well as the identities of each of the great beautiful women who stood there and charged relentlessly towards Ling Tian.

Although almost all of them had veils, anyone could tell that underneath each of those veils were unique and wonderful beauties...

Yun Mengxin was slightly surprised to see some new but strangely familiar faces as she smiled slightly as she understood a little of what was going on. She was also able to understand faster thanks to the memories and feelings Ling Tian had at the moment and those were shared towards her without any barriers.

"They are..."

Ling Tian looked at all the familiar faces from the past and present, wanting to introduce them with great happiness and excitement!

"L-Ling T-Tian?"

Suddenly, a faint but clearly hesitant voice interrupted Ling Tian's words, causing everyone to turn to look for the source of that voice.

Ling Tian raised his eyebrow when he sensed a hint of familiar feeling in that voice. Raising his gaze, he quickly grasped the origin and looked at the figure in the sky.

The person who had spoken was one of the two enemies who were fighting with his female disciples earlier!

Everyone looked at this woman who also had a veil on her face, but who could easily be described as beautiful and perfect by the contour of her body and her soft and pure aura. Her precious robe that was of a white color with heavenly blue clearly gave her the impression of being an immortal from heaven, a pure presence that should not be touched by the impurities of this world.

Ling Tian frowned slightly when he couldn't quickly connect that feeling conveyed by the voice with someone. His gaze on the beautiful woman in the sky made his intuition rise up once again, indicating to him that he might actually know her.

"B-Brother... T-Tian...?"

As if unable to control her obvious nervousness, the woman quickly descended from the sky like a gentle but swift breeze, standing in front of Ling Tian less than 3 meters away. Her voice was faint but because she seemed to only whisper of expectation and speculation.

Ling Tian's mind worked as fast as it could but could not find anyone similar from his past to this beautiful woman now.

"You are..." Ling Tian narrowed his eyes at this beautiful woman unknown but familiar at the same time. His eyes really showed that they were trying to remember this person in front of him.

Surprisingly, as if Ling Tian's jet black eyes were the ultimate proof she was looking for, this woman rushed towards Ling Tian and hugged him with great strength, clutching her beautiful and exquisite body unhesitatingly against his as she began to pour endless tears into him.

"Big brother!"

"Bohooo!"

"It's you! It's really you, big brother!"

Everyone was once again stunned as once again another unknown beauty with a veil on her face hugged Ling Tian!

"You..."

Ling Tian was dumbfounded as he completely felt this unknown woman's body pressing against his. But no wicked thoughts crossed his mind other than the question of knowing who she was!

"Big brother, don't you recognize me? It's me!"

Then, as if trying to answer Ling Tian's question, she slightly separated her face but without detaching herself from Ling Tian. She raised her hand and withdrew her face from her veil without a second thought.

Ling Tian knew that there was unparalleled beauty beneath this veil, but when she revealed her face, he drew in a slightly cold breath at the sight of her.

Such a white and tender baby-like skin, such a delineated and thin eyebrows, a slightly small but very attractive and beautiful nose. Thin but luscious lips with a natural and appetizing pinkish red color. Together with black, long, straight hair made this beautiful face another unique painting of the heavens.

But what mainly caught Ling Tian's attention was the color of her eyes... a rare but mysteriously beautiful light honey color, with a sea of feeling exposed within them for him to see without any trouble, with an obvious glow of anticipation for him to remember her.

Instantly, a small image fiercely struck his mind, filling his consciousness of a small person from the past.

'Is this really for me? But I'm just a little girl, and I think it could be much better for you...'

'Wow! Big brother, how come they can do that? Can they really fly?'

'When I can cultivate and fly through the air, will you let me fly with you too, big brother?'

'Can I really be loved by someone else?'

'What's your name, little girl? My name is Ling Tian, you can call me big brother...

Big brother... Ning, my name is Xue Ning...'

'Then I'll call you little Ning!'

'En!'

Ling Tian was stupefied for a moment as he retracted his consciousness from those beautiful light honey-colored eyes on this woman's face.

"Little Ning?"
