nLing Yun said to Ling Xi. “You can start removing the trees like we planned before.”

n“All right.” Ling Xi then flew into the air and returned to her original form, and her adult form shocked the four ancestors. Besides them, Liao Yu was also shocked to see that, for she had previously doubted that she had an adult form.

nLiao Yu then looked at her body and smiled bitterly, for her body and appearance were inferior to Ling Xi.

nSeeing that, Ling Yun pulled Liao Yu into his arms and kissed her lips lightly, and he said to assure her. “You don’t need to compare yourself to Ling Xi, okay? Moreover, I don’t care about your physical appearance, and I care more about your heart.” 𝗼𝐯𝐥.𝗻𝐭

n“En.” Liao Yu nodded with a sweet smile, and then asked. “Anyway, have you contacted Ling’er yet?”

n“They’re on their way here now and might be arriving any minute.” Ling Yun replied as he nodded.

nSuddenly, the ground around them shook violently, and the huge trees in the area gradually flew into the air due to Ling Xi’s action. Even the powerful beasts in the heart of the forest immediately fled away from them, for they were frightened by her aura.

nShi Xiaoyin’s jaw dropped upon seeing that, and her gaze showed that she was utterly amazed to see Ling Xi. “Hey, Xiaofei! Are you able to do something like that*?”

n“No.” Ling Xiaofei shook her head and continued to look at Ling Xi. “That spirit woman’s strength is truly terrifying, and her aura is truly intimidating.”

n“Since she’s that strong if she’s willing to help us in the upcoming war, then we should be able to win easily, right?” Shi Xiaoyin said excitedly.

nHowever, Ling Xiaofei immediately dropped her hopes. “Xiaoyin, we are cultivators, and this place is our home, so we cannot place any hope in her, and we must strive to win the war with our own strength. Moreover, she comes from a supreme realm and probably won’t participate in the war.”

nHearing their conversation, Feng Bing’er joined in. “Xiaofei is right, Senior Ling Xi most likely won’t participate in the war, so we shouldn’t pin our hopes on her.”

n“Senior Ling Xi might not be directly involved in the war, but I am sure that Ling Yun will definitely be involved, and I am sure she will protect him.” Feng Yujie joined in as she watched Ling Xi uproot the trees.

nXiao Xiao sighed softly, listening to them, and she then spoke. “Aunts, you all don’t need to think about the war, for I’m sure we will come out victorious.”

n“Ha ha!” Shi Yao laughed and said. “Princess Xiao is right; we don’t need to think about the war for now. Most importantly, we must train our juniors in this place more diligently, and we will face the war together in the future.”

nThe four ancestors sighed and nodded in agreement with the two of them, for they also did not know when the war would break out, so the best thing they could do now was to train Ling Yun’s women; only then would they get many strong reinforcements.

nWhile discussing that, Lian Bing and the other four women landed before them. Ling Ling immediately ran toward Ling Yun and Liao Yu.

n“Big Sis Yu!” Ling Ling shouted loudly as she jumped up to hug Liao Yu.

nLiao Yu turned to her with a smile, stretched out her arms forward, and immediately hugged Ling Ling. “Hehe! I missed you so much, Ling’er.”

n“En. I also missed you a lot.” Ling Ling then turned to her little brother. “I didn’t expect you to bring Big Sis Yu here so soon, Yun’er.”

nLing Yun shrugged his shoulders. “Since we all live here now, I decided to bring her here, so she can focus more on cultivating and training. After all, her cultivation is still low.”

n“That’s true.” Ling Ling replied with a nod of approval; she then turned towards Ling Xi. “Sister Xi’s abilities are truly terrifying, and there isn’t a single cultivator in this place who can do such a thing.”

nLing Yun turned to Lian Bing. “What about your cultivation, Bing’er? Have you felt any signs of breaking through to the Emperor Realm yet?”

n“En.” Lian Bing nodded at him. “These few days, my cultivation has been frequently unstable, and it is getting closer to the boundary of Emperor Realm. However, I still can’t say when I will break through, but I have already started to prepare myself.”

n“I see.” Ling Yun replied with a soft sigh and said again. “In that case, if you feel you’re about to break through, you should contact me directly, okay? That way, Ling Xi and I will come directly to the Lotus Sect to assist you in your breakthrough.”

n“All right.” Lian Bing nodded as she smiled. After all, after the things they had been through together, she had wholly accepted Ling Yun as her future husband. However, she still had to wait to give herself to him.

nHearing their conversation, Bing Xue couldn’t help but sigh in her heart, but she also felt happy that her disciple had finally found the man she loved.

nYe Jing suddenly hugged Ling Yun’s arm and asked him. “So what’s the name of our residence then?”

n“Hmm?” Ling Yun thought as he rubbed his smooth chin. “Like my chamber of commerce, I will use the name Yunlong Zuzhai as the name of our residence.”

n“Oh?” The women were surprised to hear that, and Ling Yu’er teased him. “You really think of yourself as a dragon, huh?”

n“Well? I do become more like a dragon with each passing second, right?” Ling Yun replied as he shrugged his shoulders.

nSu Fei chimed in. “That’s true; you are becoming more and more similar to a lustful dragon!”

n“Ha ha!” Ying Zi and the others laughed heartily at Su Fei’s words, for they also felt that Ling Yun was becoming increasingly lustful.

nThe corner of Ling Yun’s lips twitched seeing them like that, but he didn’t say anything to stop them, for they would feel happy if he punished them.

nAfter a while, all the trees in the area were in the air, and Ling Xi asked Ling Yun. “So, how do you want to chop these trees?”

nLing Yun observed the trees first, and soon he pointed at each one and told her each size he wanted.

nUpon hearing that, a few women immediately drew their swords, and Feng Qiong was the first to act. She immediately used her five fire clones, and the six of them flew up into the air to cut down the trees according to Ling Yun’s request.

nFeng Xing, Feng Xiu, and Feng Yao also drew their swords and immediately helped Feng Qiong chop those trees.

nLing Yu’er didn’t want to lose to them either; she took out her own weapon and tagged along with them.

nSeeing that, Shi Xiaoyin shook her head. “These girls are really passionate about building their residence.”

n“Let’s help them.” Ling Xiaofei said as she flew into the air.

nXiao Xiao, Shi Yao, Feng Bing’er, Feng Yujie, and Shi Xiaoyin nodded in agreement and joined them to finish it faster.

nLing Yun then turned to Long Qiu. “Qiu’er, I want you to use your Earth Qi to level all the ground in this area.”

n“Okay!” Long Qiu immediately took out her two huge hammers and channeled her Earth Qi. “Zhang Bing! You also have to help me!”

nHearing that, Zhang Bing laughed wryly and followed his Master, and the two of them worked hard to level the area.

nBasically, building a residence wasn’t tricky for cultivators, especially since they could control everything using their Qi.

nHowever, the residence that Ling Yun wanted to build was indeed massive, for their numbers were too many now, and their number might still increase in the future.

nEven so, with so many strong cultivators on Ling Yun’s side, it was easy for them to prepare everything. Coupled with the presence of Ling Xi among them, it made their job much more manageable.

nSometime later, the entire area was completely leveled, and the women had also finished cutting all the trees according to Ling Yun’s instructions.

nLing Xi then asked him. “So what are we going to do next?”

nHearing that, Ling Yun immediately flew up into the air to observe everything more clearly; he then pointed towards the river. “Qiu’er, I want you to create a waterway from that river to that lake.”

nWithout asking, Long Qiu and Zhang Bing immediately carried out Ling Yun’s order, and it didn’t take them much time to complete it. Soon, the water from the river was already flowing towards the lake.

nAfter that, Ling Yun asked all of them to help him retrieve many boulders from a nearby hill, for he wanted to use them for the foundation of their residence. Besides, he was also planning to build a large rock wall around their residence, so he needed a lot of rocks for that.

nHowever, it took them a long time to do that, especially since only three people had Earth Qi, so they had to work together to pick up a lot of rocks. Then they put them together in the heart of the forest.

nBy the time everything was finished, it was almost night again, so Ling Yun asked them to rest first, and they would continue the next day.
