When they were about to reach the Azure Cloud Mansion's estate, Duan Ru Feng seemed to have recalled something and said to Duan Ling Tian, "Tian'er, judging by the time, Xiao Lan and Bi Yao should be back at the Azure Cloud Mansion now."

Xiao Lan?

Bi Yao?

When Duan Ling Tian heard those names, he trembled a little before he came to a halt. His eyes were filled with anxiety when he looked at the Azure Cloud Mansion again.

Back then, when he first arrived at the Azure Cloud Mansion and learned that his father was the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion, he had thought about the two girls whom his mother brought away from Cloud Continent, Xiao Lan and Bi Yao.

He had heard from his mother that Xiao Lan and Bi Yao had gone out to experience life, and it would take a while before they would return.

At that time, he had sighed in relief since he was not ready to face both of them.

When he heard his father mentioned their names, it was as though he had been struck by a bolt of lightning. He stood unmoving for a while.

"Ling…"

When Gu Li saw Duan Ling Tian had stopped moving, he followed suit as he looked at Duan Ling Tian with a puzzled expression.

However, before he could speak, he was stopped by a look from Duan Ru Feng who had also stopped moving. He instantly swallowed the words he was about to say.

At this moment, Duan Ling Tian seemed unaware of the three people who had also stopped at his side.

His thoughts had drifted to back when he was still in Aurora City and the Crimson Sky Kingdom. That was when he had met Xiao Lan and Princess Bi Yao.

He still remembered the first time he saw Xiao Lan. It was at the Xiao Clan in Aurora City. Back then, Xiao Clan was giving Hidden Dragon Invitations for the Hidden Dragon Ranking. He could still remember clearly when he first saw Xiao Lan.

The girl's long and soft hair was like a waterfall. Standing in the misty morning dew, she looked like a goddess who had fallen from Heaven. She was stunningly beautiful. Back then, she was also a famous beauty with countless admirers.

As for the first time he met Princess Bi Yao, it was at the Third Prince's mansion in the Crimson Sky Kingdom.

At that time, she was seated beside the Third Prince with her soft, flowing hair behind her. Her pretty cheeks could captivate people with just a glance, and her seductive cherry-like lips could make people lust over her.

From the very beginning, he had treated them as friends. Who knew when both girls had fallen for him. Xiao Lan had even left Aurora City to the Crimson Sky Kingdom's Imperial City to look for him.

Originally, Duan Ling Tian thought both of them would gradually forget about him after he had left the Crimson Sky Kingdom. However, who knew both girls did not forget about him after his departure, they had even accompanied his mother in his place and helped him fulfill his filial duties… Otherwise, his mother might not have brought them along and leave Cloud Continent.

'It has been so many years… Perhaps, their feelings toward me have changed. After all, they were still young then. It could be considered as puppy love,' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he regained his senses.

Naturally, this was just his own assumption. This would be the best ending for him, his two fiancees, and Tian Wu.

He was willing to treat both girls as sisters. They had grown close to his mother over the years. It was not a big deal for him to treat them as family. Although Duan Ling Tian thought this way, he knew this was his own wish. He had no idea what Xiao Lan and Bi Yao's thoughts were. Their thoughts were the ones that mattered.

If they had let him go, it would certainly make things easier. Otherwise, he really did not know what to do. Naturally, he would not shirk his responsibility. If they had let go of him, then it would be easy. Otherwise, he really did not know what to do then.

"Father, they…" While they continued on their journey, Duan Ling Tian called out to his father but he could not finish his sentence.

"Tian'Er, how do you feel about Xiao Lan and Bi Yao?" Duan Ru Feng asked solemnly.

"Father, I merely treat them as close friends. I didn't have any other thoughts. I thought they would forget about me after I left the Crimson Sky Kingdom… Who would've known not only did they not forget about me, but they also treated mother so well and fulfilled my filial duties on my behalf in a way," Duan Ling Tian said with a bitter smile.

"Don't blame your mother. She brought them to the Azure Cloud Mansion when she saw how determined both of them were. Moreover, both of them had a pleasant personality. She did it with good intentions," Duan Ru Feng said.

"I understand." Duan Ling Tian nodded.

Although what his mother did was excessive, her intentions were not malicious. After all, both girls had spent days and nights with her. She would definitely want such daughter-in-laws. He understood his mother. However, he did not know how to face Xiao Lan and Bi Yao.

After taking a deep breath, Duan Ling Tian could not help but ask, "Father, I haven't met them for so many years… In your opinion, how do they feel about me now?"

"How do they feel about you? Who should I ask to give you an answer? When you return and see them, you'll naturally know how they feel about you." Duan Ru Feng was momentarily speechless before he burst out laughing when he heard Duan Ling Tian's question.

How would he, as the father, know the girls' feelings toward him.

"Mm." Duan Ling Tian nodded.

Somethings were bound to happen. There were things he would have to face eventually.

"Tian'Er!"

Suddenly, Duan Ru Feng's face turned serious again as he said, "No matter if it's Xiao Lan or Bi Yao, your mother and I share the same sentiment. You must not mistreat the. Both of them are good girls. It wasn't easy for them to leave their hometown for you."

There was something that Duan Ru Feng did not tell Duan Ling Tian. After he brought his wife along with Xiao Lan and Bi Yao to the Azure Cloud Mansion, he and his wife had asked the girls' opinion before.

If they wanted to go back, they would be willing to send them home.

However, their repeated questioning would always lead to the same answer.

They wanted to stay!

Duan Ru Feng did not tell this to Duan Ling Tian was because he was worried Duan Ling Tian would feel pressured after hearing it.

He would have to face all of that on his own!

Naturally, even though he had to face certain things on his own, there were words Duan Ru Feng had to say in order to avoid hurting the two girls.

"Father, how could I mistreat them…" After hearing Duan Ru Feng's words, Duan Ling Tian smiled bitterly.

"I have spoken to your mother about this. You've not seen each other for so many years, if there are no feelings, we won't force the matter as well. At that time, your mother and I will take them in as our goddaughters. Naturally, your mother and I hope that you all would try and stay together. If it's not possible, then it just means there's no fate between all of you! " Duan Ru Feng continued saying.

Duan Ling Tian nodded.

That was the only thing they could do.

Everything depended on Xiao Lan and Bi Yao's opinion.

Naturally, Duan Ling Tian hoped they no longer have feelings for him. In that case, he would not have to hurt both girls' feelings and could still face his two fiancees and Tian Wu.

As a man, it would be a lie if he said he did not want many wives!

However, at this moment, Duan Ling Tian had to consider the feelings of both his fiancees and Tian Wu whose current whereabouts were unknown before he could even think of getting more wives. Especially when his fiancee, Ke'Er, was still waiting to be rescued at the Fire Worship Sect.

Was he still a man he got together with Xiao Lan and Bi Yao at such a time?

"If they still feel the same for me… I can only give them my words. They must wait until I bring Ke'er back and find Tian Wu. At that time, I'll have to ask for Ke'er, Little Fei'er, and Tian Wu's opinion and permission."

"If it works, then we can be together. If it's not possible, then father and mother will have to take them in as goddaughters. I'm willing to be their brother!" Soon after, he made up his mind.

At least, he could still handle it no matter what the situation was.

After some time, a vast lake appeared in front of Duan Ling Tian and the others. It was the Crouching Dragon Lake surrounding the Azure Cloud Mansion's estate! They knew they were home when they saw the Crouching Dragon Lake!

In the past, Duan Ling Tian was a wanderer without a home in the Dao Martial Saint Land.

After he discovered his father was the Mansion Master of Azure Cloud Mansion and arrived at the Azure Cloud Mansion, he had begun to treat it as his home in the Dao Martial Saint Land. This was because his father, mother, and family members were here. Home, to him, was where one's family was at!

As soon as Duan Ling Tian arrived at the Azure Cloud Mansion, Duan Ling Tian had immediately gone to see Li Fei.

The reason he did not see his mother immediately was not that he was unfilial. It was because his father had gone to see his mother. He would only be a nuisance if he went to see his mother now.

"Father!" Once he entered the door, Duan Ling Tian saw a small figure rushing up and jumping into his arms. It was his son, Duan Nian Tian.

Duan Ling Tian caressed his son's tiny head and asked with a smile, "Nian'Er, did you miss me?"

"Yes!" Duan Nian Tian nodded like a chick pecking grains on the ground as he looked around with his big round eyes. "Nian'er is not the only one who misses you. Mother misses you as well."

"Mom, father's back! Father's back!" Following that, before Duan Ling Tian could react, Duan Nian Tian turned around and yelled excitedly while he looking toward the house.

A few moments later, a graceful and seductive figure walked out. Li Fei had a smile on her face. "You're back?"

"I'm back," Duan Ling Tian answered as he stepped forward. With one hand holding his son, he reached out with his other hand to pull Li Fei into his arms in a possessive manner.

He took a sniff of Li Fei's pleasant scent as he said, "Little Fei'er… I've missed you."
