"You really love him..."

Nalan Ziqing whispered with her cheeks flushed. Although she had never fallen in love, she still couldn't help but feel touched by the intense and deep feelings of her two female Masters, beginning to think if the same thing would ever happen to her with someone special to her.

"Although now I don't know how to face him after that misunderstanding. Right after that happened was when we were separated for the last time and we met him again until just now..." Ning Xiaoyi's expression turned somber slightly, knowing that by not responding properly she created a misunderstanding with Ling Tian.

"In addition he already has five Dao companions and shows no signs of wanting to accept any more. There are even those female disciples of his who seem to have similar feelings to ours..." Xi Fei added somewhat dejectedly.

Happiness and joy ran through their hearts now that they had found Ling Tian, so happy and joyful and they felt that all their efforts and sufferings had been worth it. But when they realized that the man they had long searched for and had always been in their hearts now had Dao companions, they felt somewhat dejected and sad.

That and not to mention that they knew they had missed their chance by not clearing up that misunderstanding with him. Ling Tian would have to have overcome that long time love affair with the two of them in order to have Dao companions at this time, after all, love ends if it is not nurtured properly, forgetting about those special people after a long time.

"But we have finally found him already. I don't care if things will no longer be like in the past, as long as he has a little space for us in his heart we will be very happy!"

Ning Xiaoyi shook her head getting rid of her dejection and sadness, showing that beautiful and charming smile again. Xi Fei also smiled softly, nodding at what her lifelong sister had said, also expressing the real feelings in her heart.

"Even if he is a cripple right now?"

Nalan Ziqing hesitated as she asked for the last time. Although she knew that Ling Tian was crippled and only counted on his body refining, the latter was more difficult than reaching heaven, almost completely severing his path to the legendary immortality. She did not look down on Ling Tian, much less look down on him as someone inferior, after all, she was also crippled once in the past and knows what the despair of losing all traces of hope to cultivate feels like.

"You don't know because you left earlier, but Ling Tian is a powerful cultivator in body refining, reaching a level comparable to the Great Ascension!"

Ning Xiaoyi replied with a bright smile, leaving Nalan Ziqing stunned!

A refinement comparable to the level of the Great Ascension?! Was that even possible? Or could it be that Ling Tian had lied and was just pretending?

"Ling Tian is still powerful as before. Sis Xiaoyi and I believe him." Xi Fei nodded as well with a glint in her blue eyes, not doubting Ling Tian's words. Besides, it was his Grand Disciple who commented on his strength and not himself, so there was more reason to believe it.

"Moreover, he has a different way of continuing to cultivate. Although he said that his condition was very different from that of any other cripple, it was not impossible to recover, so we should do our best to search for the medicinal materials to create the pill to help repair his meridians and dantian!"

Ning Xiaoyi's expression became increasingly bright and happy. As long as they helped Ling Tian get the materials needed to refine a powerful special pill, then they could have him repair his meridians and return to cultivating once again! Even Ling Tian seemed to have a special method to continue cultivating even in his state!

"So if we want him to recover and not have any problems in the future in his cultivation, the legendary external meridian and internal dantian reconstruction heavenly pill has to be successfully realized, allowing him to once again cultivate without any problems!"

Nalan Ziqing spoke to herself, remembering that there was a special pill for repairing meridians and especially dantian, more so when cultivators were powerful. The easiest meridian reconstruction pills would have to be made by alchemists comparable to the Nascent Soul level, mainly by using their spiritual energies, but this would cause weak body repair and bring difficulties to future cultivation even with special and high-level herbs.

It was as if one were to tear a simple roll or scroll of paper; even if in the end the pieces were joined and glued together, it would be destroyed more easily and at the slightest tension, and even separate again with the passing of time...

But the legendary inner and outer reconstruction heavenly pill was the only pill to repair the meridians and dantian without leaving any after-effects or hidden problems for the future, even increasing the speed and ability to cultivate! But this required powerful high-level herbs and essences that were almost impossible to find, even more difficult than ascending to heaven. No famous and renowned high-level alchemist could manage to make this pill, and in fact it took more than 10 alchemists to be able to make it, so for dozens of thousands of years that no one had been able to make this pill today.

"Inner and Outer Reconstruction Heavenly Pill..." Xi Fei whispered as she nodded in agreement knowing that this pill was the only way to help Ling Tian cultivate apparently. But she also knew the difficulty of accomplishing this, only with the pure materials needed it was an almost impossible mission.

"Then we will double the effort we made to search for him in the past! I'm sure we'll find all the grasses and essences needed to make the pill, and then we'll gather the most talented and skilled alchemists to make the pill!"

Ning Xiaoyi finally smiled, not letting herself feel dejected at the thought of how difficult it was to make this legendary pill that was only recorded in history. Her efforts to find Ling Tian bore fruit after so long, so searching for the materials to make this pill would not be impossible!

"Mhmn?"

Ning Xiaoyi was suddenly dumbfounded for a moment before reaching out and picking up the delicate zither that instantly caught her attention. Similarly, Xi Fei shakily picked up the slender sword that was lying on the side of the zither.

"M-my zither?" Ning Xiaoyi stammered in astonishment.

"My sword..." Xi Fei whispered full of shock and amazement as she recognized this sword in her hands.

These two items were their personal belongings when they were traveling with Ling Tian in the past!

What were these things doing here?

"Qing'er, where did you get this from?" Ning Xiaoyi looked at Nalan Ziqing, realizing that she had been here from the beginning and was on the side of things, thinking that she had obtained this.

"I don't know. In fact these things were already here since I arrived, so I had come over to see what they were..." Nalan Ziqing shook her head, finally looking at the small outstanding stones that were indeed made of fine beautiful jade.

"Ning Xiaoyi and... Xi Fei?!"

Nalan Ziqing exclaimed in surprise as she saw the names of her Masters on these jade plaques that looked like tombstones!

Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei focused their gazes on these tombstones, indeed realizing that they had their names and the zither and sword were respectively in front of these jade plaques.

"This is..."

Xi Fei murmured in surprise as her pupils suddenly shrunk when they noticed the place where they were! Ning Xiaoyi was also stunned!

The place where they were standing was surrounded by a large field of beautiful and fragrant flowers, complemented by two main colors: red and blue!

"Sun and Moon Spirit Twin Flowers!"

Ning Xiaoyi exclaimed in surprise. Xi Fei was also surprised!

These twin flowers that were red and blue were their favorites!

Although these flowers were really not of high level and had no importance to cultivation and could easily be found anywhere, these were their favorites because they felt that they represented their bond as real and inseparable sisters for as long as they had memories!

"Why are there so many of these flowers planted here?" Xi Fei gently picked up one of the twin flowers with her trembling hand, gently plucking it from the ground fearing to mistreat it.

This beautiful and brightly colored flower was growing in pairs, with one flower with its red petals and the other flower with blue petals, curiously coming from the same stem but growing in pairs. The flower with red petals gave off a soft feeling of cozy warmth, while the flower with blue petals gave off the opposite; a soft feeling of cool coolness. The unique function this twin flower had was that it helped to relax people according to their type of perception, perceiving only warmth or coldness in their bodies.

Only mortals used these flowers, as the cultivators had no use for them and even despised these twin flowers. But to Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei they were the most beautiful and precious flowers they had ever seen, being their favorites, especially realizing the similarity the two of them had to these twin flowers.

But now there was a huge field full of twin flowers surrounding them. If they hadn't been paying attention it would have gone unnoticed. They could even notice various formations in the surrounding area, drawing vitality auras, protection auras, spiritual energy auras and more to this place, nourishing and protecting all the flowers so that they could develop peacefully. Even more, they could see that the zither and sword seemed to have some patterns and symbols, creating a protective formation over them apparently, preventing them from being destroyed by the passing of time. 

Nalan Ziqing gently ran her hand between the twin flowers beside her, feeling the softness of cold and then warmth in these flowers. She did not know that these unimportant twin flowers to the cultivators were the favorites of her two female Masters!

A somewhat strange thought passed through Xi Fei and Ning Xiaoyi's minds as they saw this field full of twin flowers and saw the jade plaques with their names carved on it, relating it in a certain way.

"This is..."

* Boom! *

Just as Ning Xiaoyi was about to say something, an explosion rumbled in the place alerting the three of them!

A powerful aura burst within the place where they had just been before a figure was thrown out and crashed into several trees before coming to a stop. Another figure came out through the newly destroyed door.

""Ling Tian!""

Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei exclaimed as they saw Ling Tian come out and head towards the person who had flown out earlier. Nalan Ziqing looked at Ling Tian in surprise, vaguely feeling as if he was the very representative of heaven as she felt helpless before him for a second.

Ling Tian approached the figure getting up with difficulty, smiling playfully full of interest.
