The Way of The Dao

The little white fox jumped off Tang Wanying's lap toward Qing Sha when she stood up.

"These are formations too?"

Suddenly, Tang Wanying's voice was heard as she approached towards a corner of the room. There seemed to be faintly an energy gathering point in that corner that converged like a whirlpool before disappearing, appearing and repeating the same pattern every second.

Ling Tian turned his attention to where Tang Wanying pointed and nodded with a smile, "It's a type of hidden formation that attracts spiritual energy and then spreads it throughout a selected location."

"I think it's also the same one he used to hide... can it really be done?" Tang Wanying received Ling Tian's confirmation and asked again, this time referring to Lu Wuhu.

"Mistress is an expert in the Formations?"

Lu Wuhu asked when she saw Tang Wanying, wondering if this beautiful wife of his Master was an expert in the field of formations. Not just any Formations expert would be able to see at a glance the pattern in this place, let alone relate it to his stealth and hiding techniques in space. Anyone would think that a spirit gathering formation would only have that function and not think of anything else, whereas this woman who was in her early 20's clearly still thought about it and decided to ask.

"Uhm! Wanying recently started studying about formations and has become interested in this field. Therefore I have been teaching her little by little while she also experiments on her own."

Ling Tian smiled proudly, making Tang Wanying smile happily as a slight blush painted her cheeks. Although she wasn't really an expert, her husband already considered her as one, so it made her feel cheerful.

"But I've only been studying for a few months, so I still have a lot to learn..."

Even so, Tang Wanying replied humbly.

"To me you are, as well as to your sisters as well. Your talent and abilities far surpass mine, so you are undoubtedly a great master and will become a powerful expert far better than me in the future." Ling Tian smiled sincerely. These words were born from his heart.

Tang Wanying smiled sweetly, feeling her heart filled with love and warmth as she received sincere words from her husband.

'As expected from Master, his wives are also amazing!'

Lu Wuhu was surprised by this and looked at Tang Wanying and the other women with increasing respect. He could sense that the age of Ling Tian's wives were no more than 50 years old, which were undoubtedly geniuses and talents in both cultivation and other fields apparently!

It even took him several years to understand some of the formations, and even to be able to discover at a glance several of them.

The women looked at Ling Tian's wives once again, realizing their talents in cultivation and so on!

Tang Wanying again concentrated on this formation as her spirit sense focused on the spiritual gathering point, looking for where the energy was coming from and where it was spreading to. The formations drew her attention more and more, marveling at their patterns and connections, and now at their seemingly different types of uses. Tang Wanying no longer paid attention to the others.

"Master! Where are we? This is your house?"

"You lived here before, Master?"

Qing Sha and Lan Yin suddenly asked as they turned to look everywhere. Their spirit senses scanned part of the room and they wanted to see the whole place through the walls but refrained from doing so. However, curiosities like little girls filled their tender hearts and they wanted to know the place where their beloved Master previously lived.

"Uhm! Your Master formerly lived here with your senior martial brothers and sisters. I remember there were several rooms that I built but they were not used. If you get permission from your senior martial sisters you can go explore the whole place."

Ling Tian patted both little heads and turned to look at his three wonderful female disciples. Although this place was practically built by him he had left this place a long time ago, so his disciples were in charge of the place and he didn't want to come and take control and authority just like that.

""We have no problem Master!""

Gao Xue and Gao Yue replied in unison before smiling at Lan Yin and Qing Sha. They really adored these two little junior martial sisters who were so charming.

"If you want you can go explore as much as you want! If you find empty rooms you can choose them as your own!"

Zhen Bingluo stroked both Lan Yin and Qing Sha's heads and said softly to them. The residence where they were currently staying was very large and even they had made more rooms, and the rooms containing important or dangerous items were sealed so there was no problem in letting both girls explore the place at ease.

Both Qing Sha and Lan Yin smiled excitedly. They both looked at Ling Tian expectantly.

""Master, can we...?""

Their cute voices showed excitement and anticipation.

"Of course you can, go and choose your own rooms."

Ling Tian nodded, making both girls giggle before running off but holding hands, showing that they cared for each other like sisters. The little white fox looked at Ling Tian from Qing Sha's shoulder before accompanying both girls.

"L-Ling Tian, we'll go see Qing'er..."

Ning Xiaoyi approached along with Xi Fei and hesitated as she spoke to Ling Tian. Her gaze was somewhat shy, reluctant and even nervous. Xi Fei kept a calmer expression but with a little more attention they could see her undulating eyes full of nerves in the same way. Neither of them wanted to leave, they both wanted to stay with Ling Tian and talk to him about all the things they did and experienced, as well as know everything Ling Tian went through, but they didn't want to leave Nalan Ziqing alone and they wanted to clear up the misunderstanding she had between them and Ling Tian.

Nalan Ziqing had left that place where they were but their spirit senses never left her, worried for her safety or that she would leave. A relief comforted them as they saw that Nalan Ziqing was outside in what appeared to be a backyard behind the place, still within the boundaries of the mysterious place where they were all currently.

"Uhm? It's okay, don't worry. Whatever you want to do I will support you and respect your decisions, besides we still have a lot to talk about. After all, we are together again like before, right?"

Ling Tian raised his eyebrows upon hearing Ning Xiaoyi's question realizing many things besides the worry about that young girl Nalan Ziqing, as well as the probable meaning behind her words. A soft and affectionate smile formed on him as he looked at both Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei, expressing that they didn't have to worry about more things let alone that they would have to leave.

He thought that most likely both women would feel uncomfortable about their wives' presences, thinking that they might be in the way and would feel the need to leave. Both women were now adults like him and seemed to already have their own goals, so Ling Tian would respect their decisions if they wanted to leave or stay together as before they separated.

"Yes!"

Ning Xiaoyi's beautiful eyes sparkled with joy at Ling Tian's answer while Xi Fei smiled spectacularly, showing unparalleled beauty on her cold face like the ice of a thousand years. Two great and expert world powers were smiling softly and joyfully, very different from their expressions in the real world.

Xi Fei and Ning Xiaoyi turned to look at Yun Mengxin and the others before nodding with a small smile and leaving the place.

"By the way, Master. Ling'er mentioned that she and my brothers fell into the small world where you were. But where are they?"

Lu Wuhu asked shortly after Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei left. He had only seen Shin Wei before, but he didn't know about his other martial brothers. The only thing he knew was that all of them had helped him escape from that locked place to warn the other martial siblings, but after that he didn't see them anymore when he returned to that place with his other martial brothers and sisters.

Zhen Bingluo, Gao Yue and Gao Xue also looked at Ling Tian. What Xuanyuan Ling said certainly relieved their hearts a little to know that their martial brothers were fine, but so far they had not seen them except for Shin Wei.

"We used a teleportation formation to ascend to this plane. But unfortunately it was interrupted and we got separated at the point of ascent, so we ascended separately. But I'm sure they should have ascended to this world too, I just don't know in what territory."

Ling Tian comforted his disciples in a few words. Hao Zhentian and the others had entered before Yun Mengxin and the others into the same void vortex, so no doubt his wives being in this world ensured that Hao Zhentian's group also arrived in this world, only in another place.

Ling Tian was calm. Hao Zhentian, Ying Chen and Sun Xiang were with his parents in law, as well as his entire family. Three powerhouses at the pinnacle of cultivation would have no problem avoiding most trouble, and if they did, the scandal would not be small and they could easily communicate with them warning of their presence.

"That's good." Zhen Bingluo sighed in relief. They all loved each other as if they were true brothers and sisters, so they couldn't help but be worried about each other if they were in trouble.

Yun Mengxin and the others approached Ling Tian. But there was a slight tension in the atmosphere that made Ling Tian have a bit of a headache when he saw his two female disciples from the Immortal realm.

"Yan'er, Yu'er, we are all our own people and I hope we can get along..."

Ling Tian hoped that everything would flow genially, although it seemed like it was too much to ask.

Zhang Xinya and Long Yuyin looked at Zhao Yu and Gu Yan with their heads held high without being intimidated. Yun Mengxin smiled slightly at the exchange of battles between her sisters and Ling Tian's disciples. Mu Shuiruo and Shan Qingwu watched silently feeling a little nervous.

Zhao Yu and Gu Yan listened to Ling Tian's words but still kept their gazes serious and fixed on Long Yuyin and the others. After a few seconds strange but mysterious few smiles appeared on their faces, nodding to Long Yuyin and the others.

Ling Tian gently took Yun Mengxin's soft and elegant little hand, a loving smile was painted on his handsome face. Their hearts easily connected even more with the physical contact, along with the spiritual connection that always kept them connected their auras converged into one, a perfect single origin.
