The Way of The Dao

"But even if you are a body refiner, you won't be able to attain immortality so easily! You might not even attain it in your whole life! Don't try to be arrogant when you can't even cultivate now!"

Cai Wuya shook her head and refused to believe Ling Tian's strength. Although she couldn't measure the power in Ling Tian's body, somehow his body conveyed a certain powerful feeling to her despite not sensing any aura from him. But they were talking about immortality, powerful beings of the great Immortal World! Body Refiners would still be ants before them!

"Enough already! You think that because you have an Immortal World lineage you can continue to insult and despise my husband!"

Finally, Long Yuyin burst out and coldly shouted at Cai Wuya as she stood up. Her aura spread out and violently pressed down on Cai Wuya, making her stagger and fall to one knee instantly, unable to move!

Long Yuyin's cold and furious gaze pierced through Cai Wuya's body, dominantly pressing down on her with her unscrupulous aura. The power of a Great Ascension expert covered the place and violently pressed Cai Wuya!

Not only her, but Zhang Xinya and the others had angry and furious expressions. At first they did not know the identity of this woman and they thought she might be someone related to Ling Tian or Xue Ning, so they let the first scorns pass. But now that this ignorant woman was still cursing their husband they could not resist it any longer.

Zhen Bingluo and her martial sisters, as well as Xuanyuan Ling, Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei also looked coldly at Cai Wuya even though she was Xue Ning's companion.

Even Xue Ning couldn't help but look coldly at Cai Wuya. Although they were fellow disciples, they had no real companionship relationship, so she didn't have much appreciation for her, especially now seeing that she kept insulting Ling Tian. But despite that, she was a fellow disciple of their sect and she couldn't just leave her fall here.

"You're so narrow-minded that you don't even know who you're talking to! Even that sect you're so proud of is nothing compared to my Master!"

Zhao Yu stared coldly at Cai Wuya. Her cold eyes exuded a unique and supreme imperial majesty, like a celestial being looking down on a mere mortal. Whoever insults her Master will die!

Gu Yan was silent but the look in her eyes was nothing less than those of her senior sister. A killing intent intensified in her eyes as she looked at Cai Wuya, sending shivers down Cai Wuya's spine.

"Even if you think you have a high level of body refinement, you won't be able to ascend without help! Think it through! If you receive help from our sect, you'll be able to return to the Immortal World and we can even help you cultivate again and not rely on Body Dao refining!"

Ling Tian's gaze became indifferent towards Cai Wuya despite hearing her say all that, as if she had the authority and power to be able to make him become stronger. As an expert powerhouse in the Immortal realm, the words of ignorant ants would always be insignificant and could be crushed at any time. Even more so that Ling Tian didn't give a damn what people said about him. Ling Tian endured thousands of years of scorn, ridicule and humiliation as he cultivated arduously. In the end, those who despised him turned to bones and dust, those who taunted him fell horribly becoming cripples and others disappeared, with everyone lowering their heads and begging for their lives when they saw him again in the end with incomparably terrifying power.

Ling Tian gently lowered Qing Sha and Lan Yin from his lap and walked towards Cai Wuya. He gently touched Long Yuyin's soft shoulder, calming her with a reassuring yet grateful and loving smile, and finally looked at Cai Wuya. This woman had an approximate cultivation at the Early Stage of the Separation and Reunion realm, so she was helpless against the pressure of Long Yuyin's aura.

It should be said that this woman had great courage to speak big in this place in front of all these women who were clearly more powerful than her... or maybe she was too stupid to think that nothing would happen to her and naming her sect would save her.

"Go and return to your sect and tell your Master and the other elders that Xue Ning is not their property. If they want to force her to be something she doesn't want, they will have to ask me first! Just as I saved your sect in the past, I can easily destroy it too!" 

Ling Tian's cold gaze brought with it a feeling even more domineering than Long Yuyin, but with a trace of pressure unimaginable without the presence of some kind of aura! As if words alone were enough to dominate the enemy! Such arrogant and domineering words!

Cai Wuya glared resentfully and hatefully at Ling Tian, Long Yuyin and the others. She didn't fight back or try to attack, she knew that her cultivation level was among the lowest compared to everyone here. She didn't even have the confidence to dare to attack Ling Tian and teach him a lesson so that he would learn not to be arrogant. Cai Wuya knew that only Xue Ning would be enough to deal with her right now. She didn't have any kind of special relationship with her other than being fellow disciples!

"I hope you won't regret it in the future when you face the terrifying power of the Immortals." Cai Wuya finally stood up before casting one last glance towards Ling Tian and Xue Ning, leaving the place where they stood.

Ling Tian looked indifferently at Cai Wuya. He wasn't going to let this go easily. It seemed that he would have to pay an interesting visit to the sect where he had left Xue Ning in the past. If they claimed to have a teleportation formation in making someone of the Immortal realm able to descend to the lower plane, then he would be able to use this formation to be able to ascend!

"Thank you, big brother..." Xue Ning nervously walked up to Ling Tian and she grabbed his hand without thinking. She knows how the world is like, the coldness and cruelty of life, with the strongest fist deciding the lives of others. For Ling Tian to have let all Cai Wuya's insults towards him pass was only to give her a face knowing that they were fellow disciples of the same sect.

But even if Ling Tian hadn't done anything, Xue Ning wouldn't stand idly by either.

"What do you say, my little Ning? As your big brother I can't let them bully you. If someone wants to force you to do things you don't want to do, they'll have to get past me first! No one can hurt my beloved little girl!"

Ling Tian smiled warmly and patted Xue Ning's head. Such a beautiful and charming young woman blushed intensely as an extremely happy smile formed on face. Xue Ning was almost the same height as him, being a young woman in full divine bloom, with an appearance in her 20s that displayed the purest and most unique beauty.

"Big brother, I'm no longer a little girl, I've already grown up!" Xue Ning's blush was increasingly intensifying but she did not turn away from Ling Tian, on the contrary, she bravely stepped closer and whispered shyly, "Besides, big brother used to lovingly call me Ning'er! Could it be that you've really forgotten about me after all this time?"

Xue Ning's expression turned charming at the sight of the others, with small tears in her adorable eyes at the sight of Ling Tian as a lovely pout formed on her face. Anticipation and expectation filled her gaze, hoping to somehow remain in Ling Tian's heart. Being referred to as little girl by Ling Tian somehow made her heart uncomfortable, not wanting him to continue to see her as a kid like in the past.

Gu Yan pouted and Zhao Yu narrowed her eyes, realizing how many rivals they had.

Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei had somewhat confused expressions as they watched and recalled the interactions of each of the women towards Ling Tian in this place. Their gazes fell upon Ling Tian's striking and extraordinary wives, being even more surprised when they noticed their various smiling and curious expressions, but none frowning or showing discomfort at seeing Ling Tian being surrounded by other beautiful women.

Tang Wanying blinked and her characteristic playful smile painted her beautiful face, watching Ling Tian with interest. Her sisters also silently watched what was happening, with various gazes falling on Ling Tian like arrows piercing him.

Ling Tian was stunned for a moment as he felt the softness of Xue Ning's body and heard her pleasant and gentle voice as her lovely face occupied his gaze. Her bright eyes of an alluring light honey color further enhanced her unique beauty.

"I may have changed a lot, and I may have done many things, but I will never forget my loved ones even if ages flow and time is infinite."

Ling Tian's hand gently caressed Xue Ning's blushing cheek, adding with an affectionate smile, "Although I had to leave you in that place long ago, I have always kept you in my heart, Ning'er."
