The Way of The Dao

Chapter 796 Lang Qingzu's Determination



Amidst the rubble, many individuals who did not manage to escape watched in silence and stupefaction as the trio hugged each other, with two little girls crying and hugging each other and a young adult man comforting them like an older brother, as if he were the father of both girls as well.

Despite this, none of them moved, much less ran away, fearing to attract attention when their gazes landed on Ling Tian.

Ever since he chased away the old man who was a terrifying Nascent Soul realm powerhouse, everyone was afraid and dreading to provoke the wrath of this other, more terrifying monster.

Body Condensation realm cultivator! Only an expert of this caliber and realm could easily suppress a Nascent Soul realm expert, driving him away while running with his tail between his legs!

If this guy who is so young and handsome has such a level of cultivation, all they could think of was those holy lands and top-tier sects in the north state. Only the top geniuses and disciples in these places would have terrifying cultivation levels while being so young!

Lang Qingzu stopped crying after a long time, finally starting to show her previous smiling expression with that characteristic glow of hers, relieving Xuan Li and making her smile too as she saw that this little sister of hers was back to her old self.

"An-.... big brother, thank you!"

Suddenly, Lang Qingzu looked at Ling Tian and she hugged him with all her strength, smiling happily and lifting her face, telling him with a big smile, "But still, I know that I have neglected myself lately, therefore, I will not disappoint my powerful sect ancestor and grand master, and I will cultivate a lot so that I can help you, to my big sister Li, to my master and all my other big siblings!"

Determination shone in Lang Qingzu's eyes, but this time, it was a different glow, not made out of sadness or despair, but out of joy and the affection and love she feels for her important people not wanting something bad to happen them in the future, realizing that she too has to become strong and not be a burden to others. If she becomes strong, then she will be able to be on par with her big sisters and her master, help them through all the problems and not hide behind them, live for much longer and not be left behind, to die and turn to dust while the others continue to live without any problems.

It's just that Lang Qingzu always loved to play and have fun, especially when the others spent time with her and feel that cultivation was somewhat boring to be alone for a long time.

"Of course you will. But you also have to keep being you, play and have a lot of fun whenever you want to, you don't have to restrict yourself in everything." Ling Tian patted her little head and immediately added with a smile, "And in case you didn't know, when I found and decided to take care and protect your master, Zhen Bingluo, she was also very playful and very mischievous, she liked to play a lot and even preferred to have fun, sing and play all the time instead of just cultivating, even she was more mischievous than little Xue and little Yue, more mischievous than you. Your master back then was even one or two years older than you and she was still still naughty."

"My master was also like me?"

"And more mischievous than the elders Gao?"

Lang Qingzu asked full of surprise, and Xuan Li beside her also couldn't help but pay more attention and similarly surprised as Lang Qingzu.

Their dear, respectable and beloved master, Zhen Bingluo, who always maintained a calm smile and composed and self-confident demeanor, was also a mischievous and carefree girl like them? None of them or their martial sisters knew about their master's childhood and youth!

"If I were to tell you many things about your master and your other sect elders, I would need a long time to tell you in detail." Ling Tian chuckled.bender

The mischief, cunning, naughtiness, games and childish behaviors of his disciples were deeply engraved in his heart, never forgetting them despite having lived for thousands of years.

Both Xuan Li and Lang Qingzu looked at Ling Tian in surprise, slowly realizing that their master and the other elders were also once kids and might have been mischievous and carefree like them.

"In fact, I currently have two girls as disciples that I found and took them under my care, teaching them what I know while they are growing up, their names are Yinyin and Shasha, and just like you, they two are also very young, between eleven and ten years old." Ling Tian said with a smile.

"Ancestor, you have two little disciples younger than us?" Xuan Li asked in astonishment. Lang Qingzu also looked at Ling Tian curiously.

This legendary ancestor of their sect has two female disciples almost the same age as them?

"Yeap! Maybe you'll get along very well once you get to know each other!" Ling Tian answered them with a smile.

It was very likely that both Lan Yin and Qing Sha would get along very well with Lang Qingzu and Xuan Li since they were girls close in age.

"Well, I think we're done here." Ling Tian turned around and caught the fearful gazes of the other cultivators once his gaze fell on those of all of them, hesitating whether to stay or leave.

"This trial is already over, so there's no need for you to stay and wait to see if there's any chance, but if you don't agree, you can challenge her since she was the one who received the inheritance."

Finishing speaking calmly, Ling Tian pointed at Xuan Li, causing her to be dumbfounded and somewhat anxious and nervous that this ancestor of hers was exposing her to everyone by saying that she was the winner of this sect's legacy. Once the news of any inheritance or legacy came out, terrifying powerhouses and powerful experts would come out of their seclusion at once to snatch those inheritances even if it had already been handed over.

But when Xuan Li observed Ling Tian, she couldn't help but feel nothing but relief and confidence; with a powerful ancestor who could completely suppress a Nascent Soul realm expert, she and Lang Qingzu would be safe in this south state.

No one could be so stupid or idiotic to want to challenge and assassinate her in front of Ling Tian.

Indeed, everyone's gazes were on Xuan Li, knowing that she had been the ultimate winner of the inheritance, especially when she had faced the elders who were true Nascent Soul realm experts. The armor on her body and the halberd in her hand clearly showed her status and power, as well as that powerful aura they could sense from her, made her a true expert.

"The others need to pass the last test before leaving this place. If you guys want to leave, go, but if you want to stay and wait for the others I don't care, just don't bother us!" Ling Tian left a few last words before diverting his gaze to the old old building on the site. He had some plans at the moment.

Inside this building they had taken the other trials after the formation coercion test, where they were trapped in the illusions of their hearts. The old guardian of this place was still inside, waiting for the other people to finish their trials, considering it a kind of consolation was to temper their hearts at not being able to win the inheritance.

Quickly, more than half of the population began to escape, nodding respectfully to Ling Tian before turning around and running like never before. Only a few people wandered a few meters away before falling silent, possibly waiting for their peers who had been inside and passed the first test.

"Big Sister, congratulations on winning the inheritance of this sect! I'm sure Master will be very happy with you!"

Lang Qingzu looked at Xuan Li with sincere happiness, smiling brightly as if she herself was the one who had obtained the inheritance. But her happiness and joy were more attached and directed towards her big sister, feeling very happy for Xuan Li seeing that she had become very strong and powerful.

The armor on Xuan Li's body made her look charming and, with the beautifully detailed and delicate halberd, made her look like a legendary warrior goddess, a heavenly warrior princess who possessed godly strength.

"It was all thanks to the ancestor, without him I'm not entirely sure I could have obtained this power." Xuan Li denied with a humble smile and looked at Ling Tian, she was sure that this competence was already in Ling Tian's pocket from the beginning for some reason. And when they were inside, she confirmed it.

"Big brother is very powerful!" Lang Qingzu whispered happily and nodded, knowing very well that Ling Tian was as strong as her masters.

Xuan Li nodded and said, "In fact, if it wasn't for him, that old man would have killed me."

That old man's power had frightened her, making her realize that she had a lot to learn, especially in knowing and understanding her current strength and not becoming conceited or proud by having a high cultivation base. If Ling Tian had not helped her, Xuan Li would not know what to do when all her energies had been consumed.

"Little Li, I will use the remaining formations in this place before they are wasted so that you can recover and fully consolidate your cultivation. Now you just need to concentrate and cultivate."

Ling Tian turned to look at Xuan Li and pointed to a nearby spot. At once, several flags and talismans of formations appeared in his hand and he tossed them into the air, instantly disappearing as they seemed to fly in certain directions, startling both girls.

Instantly, the place shook slightly as the aura began to gather near them from different sides, while the ground seemed to move and shift, with formations visible to the naked eye changing places and becoming fully activated.

"Emn!" Xuan Li nodded and didn't hesitate, she quickly walked towards the place Ling Tian told her and sat in lotus position to cultivate. Her wounds were slowly being healed with the medicinal pills and her aura began to slowly replenish as she began to absorb the aura around her.

"B-big brother..."

"What's wrong?"

Turning to look at Lang Qingzu, Ling Tian asked with a faint smile, understanding what she would say.

Hesitating for a moment, Lang Qingzu became a little nervous before looking at Ling Tian and saying, "Can I cultivate too?"

Ling Tian observed Lang Qingzu's somewhat fearful and nervous expression, thinking that she thought what he had done was meant only for Xuan Li and not for her. Ling Tian was also aware that Lang Qingzu was aware of the fact that she had to cultivate, and it was a sincere determination of her heart, so he did not stop her and instead nodded with a smile.

Taking out a few items from his storage ring, Ling Tian handed them to Lang Qingzu.

"This right here is a natural treasure that is perfect to help you build your own Golden Core with peace of mind... the little cloud of cheerful candid."
