The Way of The Dao



"What's the matter? Why don't you girls say anything? Is there something strange about my face?"

Ling Tian smiled in amusement at their reactions. Obviously these two girls would still be heavily under the shock of everything that had happened, unable to catch up quickly.

Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu were silent, staring blankly at Ling Tian. Both of them could not understand how it was that they went from being under pressure about to be killed to this point, where it seemed that this person had apparently saved them.

The only thing that resonated in their minds was that it seemed this monstrous young expert had said that he belonged to the Beyond Above The Heaven Sect just like them. Only that entered their minds and they did not hear the rest, unable to realize for the moment the situation they were in.

"Senior, you..."

"Wow! Big brother, you belong to the Beyond Above The Heaven Sect? You're our big brother?!"

Just as Xuan Li was about to ask cautiously, Lang Qingzu's small body jumped up and asked with stars in her eyes. Her gaze on Ling Tian was full of interest and excitement, as if she was reuniting with a beloved relative from many years ago.

Ling Tian let out a small chuckle as he saw Lang Qingzu's similar behavior with Lan Yin and Qing Sha, still having those childish behaviors. But Ling Tian could still see the trace of nervousness and caution in the depths of her eyes, knowing that this girl no matter how naive and innocent she looks, she still understands the situation she is in and does not completely lower her defenses.

"Zu'er! Don't bother the senior..."

"Yes! I belong to the same sect as you!"

Xuan Li tried to stop Lang Qingzu, wanting to hold back her direct attitude a bit to avoid angering this expert, but immediately Ling Tian nodded with a gentle smile, leaving both girls dumbfounded.

This monstrous young expert actually said that he belonged to the same sect as the two of them!

Both Lang Qingzu and Xuan Li stood silently staring at Ling Tian. Nevertheless, both of them slightly took a step back as they thought many things.

During the time of the sect at its peak, many cultivators tried to pretend to be members of the sect, trying to become close friends or relatives of the disciples just to infiltrate the sect and steal their inheritance. Fortunately, the sect's formation was very powerful to the point that no one could infiltrate, let alone steal the inheritance. Therefore, all members would have a token, a symbol of identity and belonging to this sect, which could allow them to enter and leave the sect at will and could only be used by themselves. This token allowed them to verify the identity of their own fellow sect members once they were out on missions, which would only be activated by one's own blood.

Therefore, both girls could not help but distrust Ling Tian. Even if he had saved them at this moment, their minds quickly began to work and think of many possibilities.

"Senior, do you have an identity token...?"

Xuan Li asked very cautiously, while Lang Qingzu remained silent knowing for herself that at this moment she should not be carefree, letting her big sister speak.

With this special token, they would be able to confirm Ling Tian's identity as a true sect member.

"Identity token?" Ling Tian raised his eyebrows as he didn't know about this kind of token, he also didn't bother to be questioned, it was natural to have their suspicions after this event.

Ling Tian quickly understood that it should be some kind of recognition token, but he wasn't in the sect for long, let alone knew about this kind of knowledge. The time he met Pang Wuya, Hong Xian'er and the others, it was because they mistook him for Lu Wuhu's disciple because of his Shadow Talisman...

The Shadow Talisman!

"I don't know if it counts as a token, but can you recognize this?"

Ling Tian quickly remembered that he still had Lu Wuhu's personal artifact with him and took it out, showing it to both girls.

"A black medallion?" Lang Qingzu tilted her head in confusion, looking at the Shadow Talisman hanging from Ling Tian's hand. She didn't know why this expert had taken out such an ancient pendant instead of the confirmation token.

"Shadows Talisman!"

But the next moment, Xuan Li gasped in stupefaction as her pupils shrank and her expression froze!

Lang Qingzu is very small and had not been for a long time in the sect, so she had hardly attended many of the important events or meetings in the sect, unaware of many things. But unlike her, Xuan Li had been in the sect longer and knew almost everything about the elders and masters of the sect, so she could recognize at first glance the object Ling Tian had shown right now.

Elder Lu Wuhu's Shadow Talisman! A personal artifact that he had refined for dozens of years and allowed him to create formations instantly! A symbol of his identity and power!

"Disciple Xuan Li presents her respects to Senior! I hope you can forgive the offenses my junior sister and I may have caused you!"

Without wasting any more time, Xuan Li clenched her fists together and bowed towards Ling Tian, greeting him with respect. She didn't know why he had Elder Lu Wuhu's personal item, but if he had it, then he should be a very important person and recognized by Elder Lu Wuhu himself. Xuan Li did not believe that this guy would have stolen such an item from Elder Lu Wuhu, an expert at the top of the world; it was practically impossible.

"Zu'er, he really is from the sect and seems to be a senior closely related to Elder Lu!"

"Um? Eh! Dis-disciple Lang Qingzu presents her respects to Senior as well! I hope big brother doesn't get angry with this little girl's behavior!"

Lang Qingzu was startled to see her big sister Xuan Li present her greetings to this big brother and then she quickly whispered to her, so she didn't hesitate and did the same as well, even copying almost the same words as her big sister while smartly apologizing for her own behavior as well. She trusted Xuan Li and if she greeted this big brother, then it must be because she confirmed his identity. She was even surprised to hear that he seemed to be related to Elder Lu Wuhu!

"It's okay, don't worry~" Ling Tian let out a smile and didn't let them bow for long, lightly waving his hand and gently lifting them up. A strange but somewhat exciting feeling arose in his heart: this is how it felt to have descendants, to be more precise, grand disciples of his sect?

Showing respect and emotions by greeting him as juniors, knowing that he was a senior in the sect. It felt kind of nice...

"So you girls are also disciples of the sect, to be more precise of little Bingluo?"

Ling Tian suddenly remembered that these two girls had shown themselves as disciples under Zhen Bingluo's tutelage, so he showed interest.

Little Bingluo?

Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu were dumbfounded to hear Ling Tian refer to their master as if she were a little girl. What did that mean and why was he addressing her respected and honorable master like that?!

"Ah! I don't have my token anymore!"

As Xuan Li was about to reply, Lang Qingzu let out a cry and her expression turned sad. She was excited for a moment as she wanted to take out her identity token and show it to Ling Tian proudly. Her personal token was personally refined by her master and had a special function!

"My storage ring..." Xuan Li blinked and quickly realized that her things were no longer with them. Even her storage rings were snatched away by those guys, leaving her with nothing but her clothes. Although it was rare for cultivators at the Chi Gathering stage and even in the Foundation Establishment to have storage rings, as members of the Beyond Above The Heaven Sect, the two of them had them. But now both girls were in the ruins.

Ling Tian heard their murmurs and waved his hand briefly, causing several magic rings to appear in the air in front of both girls. These rings belonged to Zue Xuanchen and his companions.

"Ah! That's my ring!"

Lang Qingzu's adorable and childish but very pretty face lit up with joy as she quickly found her ring. She hurriedly took it at once, quickly putting it on and checking inside to see if her belongings were there.

Xuan Li was more slightly more discreet and cautiously took the ring in her hand. A sense of caution still rose in her heart at the sight of Ling Tian. She could not yet assimilate that there was someone belonging to the sect in this secluded place and had saved them.

"My things are gone!" Lang Qingzu's face quickly became annoyed and unhappy, pouting as she saw that almost all of her belongings were gone. Even her special token was gone!

Xuan Li also nodded with some annoyance. Those guys had searched and taken her things. Spiritual weapons and artifacts, spiritual crystals, medicinal pills, protection runes, and many other things more.
