"My whole family was killed precisely by a cultivator when I was only about 12 years old..."
This confession was a tragic bomb that fell on everyone's heart.
The hearts of Tang Wanying, Mu Shuiruo, Long Yuyin and Zhang Xinya were squeezed tightly as they watched Ling Tian.
Yun ngxin felt pain for Ling Tian.
Tang Zhi now understood that nostalgic and sad feeling that Ling Tian let slip away the first ti they t.
"I watched how my older sister and my parents were killed before my eyes, breathing out their last breaths as long as I escaped. Although they were actually my adopted family since I was found unconscious near their ho when I was only about 8 years old, in the end they were a family that gave all their love and affection even though I did not belong to them."
Ling Tian spoke calmly, as if he were telling soone else's story.
"That sa cultivator then kidnapped and tortured for several years wanting to break my soul so he could possess my body because he was dying, but, by a twist of fate, that cultivator was killed at the mont he tried to kill for an object I had at that ti. And soon after that I entered the path of cultivation, traveling to a bigger world full of cultivators to make stronger and protect my loved ones, as well as where I would et so people who would be special to ..."
Ling Tian smiled nostalgically when he rembered certain people.
"B- big brother..." Mu Shuiruo's eyes were red as she muttered in pain and sadness at the sight of Ling Tian.
She was not the only one. Tang Wanying, Zhang Xinya and Long Yuyin sohow showed a sad and painful expression. Lan Yin cried because she knew that her Master had also lost his parents like her.
Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan were not much better off. Both being mothers, the pain of their children would be passed on to them a thousand tis over. A mother truly loved and would give everything for her children, so they regarded Ling Tian as their son because of their daughters.
Everyone was silent, as they understood that even this young man who was so amazing and powerful really had a tragic and painful past.
Ling Tian smiled warmly at Mu Shuiruo, wanting to express that she should not feel that way.
"I am sorry brother..." Mu Shen murmured stiffly. He had touched a delicate point in Ling Tian.
"Haha, don't worry. Now I know that they would be in a better place, they could even be born again and live happily." Ling Tian smiled and looked at the sky, thinking that perhaps they could reincarnate again, getting a second life. He wished the best for all of them.
Ling Tian did not hear any sound or speech. Everyone was silent, feeling as if they were on a tightrope, not wanting to step on another mine.
"That's the reason I'm telling you, you don't have to worry." Ling Tian spoke again: "The friends I have are one of the most powerful in that world, so no one could ever cause them any trouble. You will be able to cultivate and beco strong over ti without being disturbed by anyone."
"I would agree, but I also have a concern." Long Cheng spoke so ti later.
Ling Tian nodded to him to voice his concern.
"As the Lord of the City, I have an obligation to care for and protect this place, the Star City." Long Cheng slowly explained his concern: "If we leave this place, wouldn't the demon beasts still be attacking this place? People rely mainly on and the great families to counteract the demon hordes. That is my concern, to leave the city alone and defenseless."
Everyone agreed with Long Cheng's concern. They all longed for a wonderful and great new world, but if the roots of where they grew up were destroyed, they could not be at peace. Star City is the place where they have lived forever, the ancestors of their ancestors founded that place long ago, so they would not like to leave other people behind and let them destroy this place that was their ho for life.
Ling Tian nodded in recognition of what Long Cheng said. He too would hesitate if he had to leave the Immortal World where his disciples are to go to another world. Sohow, the consciousness of worry could beco a demon of the heart that would not let one advance.
Ling Tian thought for a long ti before saying, "For that do not worry, I have two solutions to this."
Everyone listened carefully to what Ling Tian would say.
"The first and best solution would be that I provide powerful techniques that surpass the Divine range. I could also easily make hundreds of spiritual elixirs so that everyone would quickly increase their strength, and thus be able to defend themselves from the beast demons.
Ling Tian thought that it would not be a bad idea to give so cultivation techniques that would allow one to reach only the stage of the Golden Core; that would not cost him anything and would only be crumbs for him. He could easily make spiritual elixirs, he could even teach Mu Shuiruo to make elixirs and even spiritual pills because of her affinity and her aptitude.
"The second solution I'm not sure if I can assure it completely." Ling Tian paused for a few seconds as he tried to explain to them what he had in mind: "The second solution would be even the best and most peaceful one, which would be that the demonic beasts would cease to exist and the Star City would be at peace forever.
I could try that before we leave, while I try to find a way for us to travel to the other world, but, it would be sowhat complicated and I'm not sure if it would work."
Ling Tian knew that there might be so way to make the Laws of Heaven and Earth of this world stronger and better, preventing the shackles of this world from being weak and potentially breaking, either to enter or to leave. Thus, the demonic beasts would no longer be able to break the space and enter this small lower plane. The world would be safe for a long ti, even forever. Ling Tian would only need to reach the core of this small world or combine his spirit with the Laws of Heaven and Earth to do this.
Everyone looked at Ling Tian in amazent as they slowly digested the bombs of information he threw at them.
Powerful techniques that could be stronger than the legendary Divine rank?
Can he also easily make many spiritual elixirs?
Could he even make the demonic beasts stop appearing forever?
There was a mont of silence as everyone looked into each other's eyes, especially the adults.
"We will have no trouble following you." Tang Wei spoke for the Tang family.
"Likewise with us." Zhang Chao spoke for the Zhang family.
"We will follow my daughter." Yun Dong spoke for the Yun family.
"As long as we don't leave this place defenseless, there will be no problem in experiencing new things." Long Cheng said. Long Hong next to him nodded. The two of them were the only direct family of Long Yuyin.
Everyone agreed brilliantly to what the Lord of the City said.
Who did not want to experience a new world where everyone can fly and do things as if they were Gods?
Even they could beco those legendary Immortals of the legends!
They were sohow fed up with being in constant defense against the demonic beasts. Although Ling Tian told them that now the problems would be with other direct people, it would not always be, unlike staying in this place full of demonic beasts.
Ling Tian sighed with relief inside when he saw that everyone agreed to go with him.
Ling Tian did not want his won to be separated from their families, so he had to tell them all this and try to convince them to agree to co with him.
"So how long would it take us to leave?" Long Cheng asked about everyone.
"Above all, to leave our families in order, as well as those close to us who have helped us." Tang Wei imdiately added, "I hope we can have several days."
"Don't worry, there is still so ti." Ling Tian responded, "I still have to find a teleportation zone in this world that would allow to return, so it would take perhaps a few months before we leave."
Everyone sighed as they saw that there might still be a long ti before they left this place.
"Teleportation zone?" Tang Jingtian asked curiously.
"Um. It's a formation that contains patterns and inscriptions... mmm it's like strange symbols, all scattered in a circle." Ling Tian described in a few words what a teleportation arrangent was.
Tang Jingtian nodded as he imagined in his mind what the teleportation zone was.
"I think we have that." Long Hong spoke as he frowned, surprising Ling Tian: "That's in the secret chamber under the City Lord's Mansion."
Ling Tian opened his eyes in surprise and quickly said, "Then when we're done here I hope you can take there." If he could make that teleportation zone work, he could easily get out of this lower plane!
Long Hong nodded without hesitation.
"So..." Ling Tian smiled mysteriously and said, "I will teach you what cultivation is."
