""Master!!!""
Instantly, both celestial figures cried out in excitement and longing, falling swiftly towards Ling Tian as they let out all kinds of feelings, being tangible at once.
Two outstretched arms received both beautiful women, who were already crying nonstop as they clung with all their strengths to Ling Tian's body. Their bodies were shaking endlessly as tears further soaked Ling Tian's entire robe.
"There, there, it's okay. Yu'er, Yan'er, Master is here. Don't cry my sweet loves..." Ling Tian whispered lovingly and gently but tightly hugged both women. His heart could not help but ache and sadden instantly. His gaze became soft and tender at this moment, very different from the killing intent he had a few moments ago.
Ling Tian looked at the two women in his embrace and felt a strangeness in his heart; their faces were pale but they were still shedding tears non-stop. However, his heart was greatly calmed by seeing and feeling these two women.
Zhao Yu and Gu Yan!
His two female disciples of the Immortal realm!
Zhao Yu was the first to calm down faster than Gu Yan, but she was still still shedding tears in a smaller amount while her junior martial sister was still crying like a little girl.
"You're here, Master! Is it really you? You really didn't die, Master? I knew it, you're still alive..." Gu Yan murmured in fear, longing and sadness, rubbing her face on Ling Tian's chest as she smelled Ling Tian's body scent, making sure it wasn't a dream, an illusion or someone different. Her mind conjured up the memory of when they both fell into the abyss of Samsara Bridge and Ling Tian had done everything he could to send her out of the place so that she would be saved.
"I knew you couldn't die, Master! No one could kill you, not even those other Supremes!" Zhao Yu also nodded her head and added at once, as she clung tighter to Ling Tian, not wanting to detach herself from him.
Although both women noticed Ling Tian's peculiar short white hair, they did not mind it and continued to hug him tightly, turning into little girls as they felt his embrace and warmth.
Ling Tian's heart trembled painfully as he sensed something of his female disciples' sad and painful feelings, thinking that his probable death had somehow affected them.
"Wait, how come you are here? How could you come down to this middle plane..."
Suddenly, Ling Tian's pupils shrank in stupefaction as he remembered that no one from the Immortal realm could descend to the Cultivation World unless it was special circumstances and thus they would be suppressed as well.
The supposed soul attack he received moments ago gave Ling Tian a not good guess, realizing what these women could have done to break through a space-time crack and descend to this plane.
Ling Tian could feel that the chaos of their immortal essences and spiritual energies were abnormal, as if they had resulted from a fierce and horrible fight... even their robes were slightly torn as their breaths gradually calmed down.
"That doesn't matter, Master..." But Zhao Yu shook her head heavily, not wanting to worry Ling Tian.
"Cough!"
However, the next moment, Zhao Yu coughed a little harder again, this time, letting out a few drops of blood as she hurriedly covered her mouth and prevented Ling Tian from noticing.
But unfortunately, Ling Tian noticed and his gaze turned cold and furious.
"Zhao Yu, what happened?" Ling Tian's voice became serious and somber.
Then, Zhao Yu couldn't help but avert her gaze a little when she saw that Ling Tian was angry. But she didn't want to worry him and just wanted Ling Tian to be fine!
"Sis..." Instead, Gu Yan was looking somewhat reluctantly at Zhao Yu, who the latter returned her gaze and was somewhat reluctant to tell. Gu Yan was also hesitant whether to speak or not, as they didn't want something to happen to Ling Tian.
"Girls..." Ling Tian's expression turned serious and angry. He didn't like it when his disciples kept things from him, especially if these were dangerous matters and put their lives at risk.
*Swoosh! *
Suddenly, the world went dark and the sun seemed to lose its light as well as the moon. Darkness covered the vast sky as everything seemed to lose its color as well. A subtle and almost small but horrible spiritual energy descended on the world.
"Yan'er! Yu'er!"
Ling Tian's voice became worried and alarming when finally Gu Yan and Zhao Yu couldn't help but cough harder, spitting out mouthfuls of blood as they fell unconscious in Ling Tian's embrace. The vitalities in their breaths diminished, most of their immortal essences disappeared along with their spirit energies; their natural auras disappeared and their meridians began to crack greatly. The chaos in their Consciousness Seas completely exploded as splinters of some dark shadows surrounded their bodies as it tried to go unnoticed.
But unconsciously, Zhao Yu and Gu Yan did not loosen the strength in their hands as they grabbed Ling Tian's clothes, not wanting to be separated from him...
The next moment, a powerful and horrible killing intent erupted on the spot!
Ling Tian's jet black eyes seemed to be a bottomless abyss as the light in them disappeared a coldness and fury took their places. He looked up at the crack in the sky that was about to close when he saw that powerful spiritual energy coming out and it was heading towards him, specifically Zhao Yu and Gu Yan when he felt both women being locked by a strange but powerful spirit sense.
"What kind of energy is this?"
Xue Ning was stunned as she sensed this tiny but fierce energy that seemed to cover the entire world and wanted to destroy it. This force was clearly superior to all of them!
Despite that, they all tried to release their spiritual energies and cultivation essences in order to counter this energy and help Ling Tian when they saw that he was the target of this attack.
The darkness seemed to turn into a kind of shadow that covered the sky, descending towards Ling Tian as what looked like the shadow of a large black long sword formed in less than a second, slashing in his direction.
But Ling Tian furiously snorted as he kept the two bodies soft and the spiritual energy of his Consciousness Sea furiously burst out along with the energy of the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures being pushed to the maximum. He even concentrated a great deal of his sword intent and directed it towards the black long sword shadow in the sky!
The spiritual energy gathered and came out of his Consciousness Sea, the energy of the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures powerfully burst out and blended with the spiritual energy; the sword intent of all his knowledge was perfectly and seamlessly integrated together with the spiritual energy and cultivation force, becoming a small sword with no essence and no color!
The void behind Ling Tian also trembled and shattered in a matter of a blink of an eye. A subtle and almost imperceptible mysterious energy manifested and crossed the void in time and space, reaching Ling Tian's hand and taking shape in less than a breath.
Void Sword!
"Now you want to kill my disciples?!"
Ling Tian did not hesitate and slashed furiously towards the sword shadow coming towards them!
* Slash! *
A slash that seemed to pierce through all the layers of the sky in an instant, as well as destroy every world principle in its path, slashed and destroyed the black long sword shadow that was heading towards both women.
Ling Tian's small sword that merged with the Void Sword collided with the black long sword, causing the entire world to tremble much more and explosive ripples spread across the entire horizon!
* Crack! *
The space crack was affected and finally collapsed, turning into a vortex of energy that swallowed everything in its path before abruptly closing and ending all the chaos it created. The shadow of the long black sword exploded along with the Void Sword and disappeared, leaving only chaos in the sky.
World principles and laws tried to quickly recompose themselves to avoid the destruction and chaos of the world as a whole. Principles and laws of time and space flowed in an amazing rhythm, trying to repair the spaces and places all over the world.
But Ling Tian did not have the time or even the interest to try to understand the Principles of Space that was flowing easily in the world. His gaze became troubled as he saw the two unconscious bodies of his female disciples in his embrace. He turned to look in that direction as his spirit sense expanded.
Instantly, Ling Tian disappeared from the scene along with Zhao Yu and Gu Yan, leaving the others dumbfounded and speechless.
Thanks for the chapter!
