It wasn't long after that when Tang Wanying suddenly opened her eyes and turned around.
"What's the matter?" Ling Tian looked at her.
"My mother wants me to take measurements of you." Tang Wanying whispered with a trace of blush as a shy and cheerful smile formed on her face.
"So that's all you came for?" Ling Tian made a sad face and feigned disappointment.
"Mhnnn..." Tang Wanying looked at Ling Tian with a slightly guilty smile for several seconds before looking around quickly and then kissing Ling Tian lovingly. Her cheeks flushed slightly.
"How do you think? It's mainly because I missed you, my husband~" Tang Wanying whispered with a sincere smile. That earlier guilty smile disappeared and a hint of amusement, but mostly love and sincerity flashed in her eyes, as if her earlier hesitation was a lie and she was just messing with him.
Ling Tian let out a smile as well and hugged Tang Wanying gently again, feeling all those emotions inside the more he hugged her.
Tang Wanying and the others were aware of Ling Tian's condition, so they didn't want to bother him too much and let him concentrate on his recovery. Although they were eager to stay by his side, they still gave him his space.
"Do my two mothers-in-law really want to do all this before we leave?" Ling Tian asked after a while and immediately added, "We still have plenty of time and there's no need to rush."
Tang Wanying nodded with a smile and then asked, "Could it be that you're regretting it and that's why you don't want to do it?" Her gaze became direct and serious as she looked at Ling Tian.
"Of course I don't. I'm more than happy and willing." Ling Tian shook his head and let out a smile, finally adding, "With women like you, how could I be dissatisfied and unwilling?"
Tang Wanying looked at him seriously for several more seconds before her smile reappeared and she leaned gently on Ling Tian.
Ling Tian knew of what everyone wanted to do: their wedding!
It seemed that his mothers-in-law, Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan, were determined to do all of this before they left this world.
Ling Tian was in no hurry and had no problem doing it, since they were already his women and there would be no problem if he married some time later. But observing the feelings and hopes of these beautiful women in the happiness of getting married, he was more than willing, even wanting to marry them as well. If it would make them happy, Ling Tian would do this and more.
"Well, it would also be great to do it now. Later we don't know if we'll have time to do it right." Ling Tian nodded and said. The situation of the future and the fate are unknown, so he wouldn't know if there would be time and peace of mind to carry it out. Besides, there was really nothing wrong with doing it now.
Tang Wanying's smile was so cheerful that one could feel her happiness at the sight of it. Her hands quickly took out a peculiar ribbon and soon she crossed it around Ling Tian's neck, as well as crossing it and wrapping it around his arms, chest, abdomen and more.
Ling Tian let Tang Wanying do what she wanted. He had many kinds of robes in his storage ring, but seeing that his two mother-in-laws wanted to do this apart, he better said nothing and let them do what they wanted. Somehow it felt good to feel the warmth of someone who would be like his mother in the future as well.
"By the way." Tang Wanying finished taking Ling Tian's measurements and said, "My brother and Brother Mu Shen are getting married in two weeks."
Ling Tian raised his eyebrows and asked, "They also agreed?"
Tang Wanying nodded and said, "My mother wants them to get married first and have a serious relationship with those women too. She said that my brother has to let his status already established and make it official." She knew her future sisters-in-law and she liked them too.
"I see. Your mother really wants to get everything done before we leave, haha." Ling Tian laughed at the thought of his mother-in-law.
Tang Wanying also nodded as she let out a small laugh, "Mainly that ours would be some time later, that way you'd be much better while Jiu Ming and Xuanyuan Ling would also finish cultivating."
Ling Tian imagined the scene where Tang Jingtian and Mu Shen were being pressured by Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan.
"But will it be alright?" Soon, Tang Wanying asked with some concern and looked at Ling Tian, "I mean your whole family is not here..."
Ling Tian's disciples are also his family as well as his sworn siblings, so on one hand it would be somewhat unfair to leave them aside from this big event.
"Don't worry, I'm sure they would be more than happy and pleased." Ling Tian gently caressed Tang Wanying's delicate cheek and said, "Besides, we could remarry once more in the future when we are all reunited. There is nothing to prevent us from marrying two or three more times."
If they wanted to get married twice, three times or five times, there would be no problem with it.
Finally, Tang Wanying's happy smile returned and she looked lovingly at Ling Tian. Ling Tian always made them feel happy and pleased, prioritizing over them and fulfilling their wishes. What more could they ask for from this wonderful man?
"Once Jiu Ming and Xuanyuan Ling finish cultivating, we would leave, right?" Tang Wanying asked after a while.
Ling Tian nodded at Tang Wanying. Whether he recovered completely or not, they would have to leave this place and try to go up to the higher plane. There would be more chance and probability of him repairing his Dantian and meridians being in the Cultivation realm, as opposed to staying longer in this small world.
Ling Tian moved and lay down, placing his head on Tang Wanying's soft lap. Tang Wanying began to lovingly stroke Ling Tian's hair while with her other hand she touched his cheek and face, slowly feeling every detail of his countenance.
"Have you finished stabilizing your cultivation already? Your wounds healed as well?" Ling Tian asked as he had his eyes closed, enjoying Tang Wanying's soft legs.
"Mhn. All of us have stabilized our cultivation and healed our wounds." Tang Wanying nodded without ceasing to caress Ling Tian's hair and face.
The cultivation of all of them had soared and increased at the end!
"Sis Mengxin had her tribulation after the battle, entering and stabilizing her cultivation at the Early Stage of the Great Ascension. Sisters Shuiruo, Yuyin, Xinya and I also had our divine tribulation and reached the Peak Stage of Separation and Reunion." Tang Wanying still explained with some surprise what had happened when Ling Tian was unconscious. This great increase in cultivation was astonishing and it was all thanks to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian couldn't help but be surprised at this either. The Dual Cultivation technique was truly amazing that he was able to share his own energy to each of them and even increase their cultivation base. Earlier, he had increased their energies in battle and he himself temporarily delayed the divine damnation, but now that the battle was over and they had recovered, they finally faced their tribulations and finally increased their cultivation bases!
If this was not due to this great dual cultivation technique, then Ling Tian had no other answer that could explain this.
"Yinyin increased her level as well and entered the Separation and Reunion realm. Shasha also entered the Body Condensation level and stabilized her strength at the Early Stage." Tang Wanying added.
Ling Tian nodded and smiled. It wasn't strange that they would increase their cultivation quite a bit after a fierce battle. Many would break their bottlenecks after they were helpless and on the verge of death, increasing their strength as they began to recover. He increased his cultivation like this many times, fighting and deepening his strength every moment.
"Qingwu also increased her strength and is at the Middle Stage of Body Condensation..." This time, Tang Wanying's voice had a subtle tone of mystery as she looked at Ling Tian.
Ling Tian raised his eyebrows still with his eyes closed and nodded happily, "You all have greatly increased your cultivations. You won't have much trouble when we ascend to the Cultivation realm."
But Tang Wanying looked straight at Ling Tian before slightly shaking her head with a slight meaningful smile.
"Will you be able to recover quickly or is there still a problem?" Tang Wanying changed the topic and asked about Ling Tian's condition.
Ling Tian opened his eyes and looked at Tang Wanying, shaking his head at once and said, "It will take time to repair my Dantian and meridians, but we'd better ascend to the other plane. That way, the time will be shorter and I can even find some resources to heal myself completely."
"So you won't be able to use energy for now?" Tang Wanying still had that worried look, wanting to help with whatever it takes for Ling Tian to recover.
"I can, but it's not that convenient for now." Ling Tian proceeded to explain a bit about the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures and that thanks to this he is able to draw energy, "I just need to rest for a while to recover, and if I can make these scriptures mine, the restriction in my body will be removed and with just flesh strength alone I will have no problem facing experts from the Great Ascension."
The other reason Ling Tian might not be worried was because of his body refinement!
After the battle, Ling Tian had broken through body refinement thanks to having ingested several drops of the Kun Peng's blood. At the last moment when facing heavenly punishment, his refining technique had broken through to the Spirit State and he was now at the Chi Circulation Stage!
This strength was the equivalent of the Great Ascension level!
Although he still had a long way to go for the True Immortal Body, even if he faced someone who had advanced to the Human Immortal, Ling Tian would not be afraid and would not retreat. He had many ways to fight them all.
Ling Tian should have no problem now with his current body refinement level, but the seal imposed on his body by the Heavenly Dao was far from easy to remove. But Ling Tian didn't care about this, also feeling that he shouldn't have to.
But this made Tang Wanying feel even more anxious as she wished that the restriction on Ling Tian's body at least could be removed quickly. That way Ling Tian wouldn't have any problems despite not being able to use his power.
Ling Tian smiled reassuringly at Tang Wanying before closing his eyes again and feeling her comfortable lap. Tang Wanying felt Ling Tian's reassurance and took a deep breath before putting that worry aside, continuing to stroke his hair while she kept watching every detail of her husband's handsome face.
Tang Wanying trusts Ling Tian and she knows that he will soon be able to recover, especially when they least expect it.
Well, with those memories that he saw with the Phoenix, aren't his women some of the reincarnations of those other women that he left behind?
That's the main reason I can come up with...
Thanks for the chapter! :)
