The Way of The Dao

Chapter 722 The Rumored Senior Martial Sister (II)



"Cultivation Essence Giant Hand!"

Ge Lian exclaimed in terror as she was caught by the cultivation essence giant hand. Her attempt to escape vanished and she lost all trace of hope. Her consciousness only thought of how Xuanyuan Ling whom she had not even seen in many months could make such a move, demonstrating the terrifying level of her cultivation.

"Huh?"

"What's going on?"

"Where did the cultivation essence giant hand come from? Could it be some elder who came back earlier and helped?"

"How is it that Senior Martial Sister Ling can cause the cultivation essence giant hand to appear?"

"My eyes don't deceive me? Sister Ling really can make this move? That means her cultivation..."

"Her cultivation has reached an unimaginable height! The goal we all want to achieve!"

"Will it be that she has been hiding her cultivation all this time? That has to be it!"

Murmurs of confusion quickly turned to exclamations and cheers among the Hong Xian'er group, looking at Xuanyuan Ling with admiration and vehemence.

"S-senior martial sister Xuanyuan Ling has reached the Great Ascension stage? Wasn't she supposed to be just at the Nascent Soul stage?"

Hong Xian'er murmured in stupefaction, her voice trembling as she watched Xuanyuan Ling demonstrate such supreme power that only the world's great experts have. With this strength, she could despise the world and be worshipped by everyone.

"This is impossible! How could junior sister have such power? She was a mere cultivator in the Nascent Soul realm! It must be a farce!"

An older woman in her thirties exclaimed in terror, pointing at Xuanyuan Ling . Her body trembled as horror perfectly filled her face, as if she had seen her end . She couldn't believe that this very young woman who had been cultivating for less time than her could have such power .

The other women beside her were also in complete silence, staring in horror and fear at Xuanyuan Ling. But despite this no one dared to leave for fear of attracting Xuanyuan Ling's attention.

Ge Lian remained silent. She was certain that this force was more powerful than her Master's.

Xuanyuan Ling kept her gaze cold until the last figure of them was no longer in sight. She gave a sigh and turned to look at Pang Wuya, An Qinmeng, An Yuqing and the other women.

"Sisters... I'm back." Xuanyuan Ling smiled slightly, but also showing an expression of guilt and sadness. She clearly learned everything that happened in the sect in the past few months, so she felt that she had guilt in large part for abandoning these women who were very precious and dear friends.

"Welcome back, Great Sister Ling!"

But unexpectedly, Pang Wuya, An Qinmeng and An Yuqing shook their heads and greeted her happily. None of them showed any signs of reproach or anger toward her, but pure joy and relief to see her again.

The other women also smiled and welcomed Xuanyuan Ling, surrounding her with fervent looks full of admiration.

"This is the power of Senior Sister Xuanyuan... as well as the prestige and admiration of the strong!" Hong Xian'er whispered inwardly as she gazed in amazement at Xuanyuan Ling, realizing that she seemed to be from the same generation as her.

"Elder sister Ling is a true genius in cultivation!" Jia Chenxin added with a smile at Hong Xian'er's whisper, and Jia Chenruo added, "Although we have known that she has had many opportunities to increase her cultivation quickly, big sister has shown firm character and resolve in cultivating slowly but with great confidence and perfection in every step she takes. Even she had beaten several senior martial sisters in the past even with one or two cultivation stages apart!"

Both twin sisters added with fascination as they watched Xuanyuan Ling. In their minds they had great adoration towards this martial sister who since they met her became their role model.

Hong Xian'er was amazed by everything she learned from Xuanyuan Ling. This woman really is amazing and especially more so that she had reached an unimaginable height.

Xuanyuan Ling greeted all the women with a small but gentle smile. But in spite of that, no one frowned. Each of the women who knew Xuanyuan Ling knew that this wonderful young woman did not show much expression, but when she showed a little to the point of smiling slightly it was that she really showed her feelings of happiness, friendship and affection towards them.

"What are you all doing here? Junior sister Rou told me that all of you kept cultivating in the residences behind closed doors to avoid attracting the attention of Ge Lian or the others." Xuanyuan Ling proceeded to ask curiously. She understood that almost all of the female disciples who did not betray their Masters' trust continued to cultivate with a little hope that they would return, that way they would keep their place in the sect to regain again.

"Huh? Ah! We're here because we found a new junior martial brother who had just arrived!" Pang Wuya replied with a smile and proceeded to look for Ling Tian, "By the way, where is he?"

"A junior martial brother?" Xuanyuan Ling was surprised to hear Pang Wuya.

"Yes! In fact, he was recommended by Elder Lu Wuhu!" Jia Chenxin exclaimed cheerfully as well.

"You may know him, big sister Ling!" Jia Chenruo added in the same manner as her older sister and pointed at Ling Tian.

"Recommended by Master Lu?" Xuanyuan Ling finally frowned at the thought that it might be a misunderstanding. None of her Masters had recently accepted any personal disciples, all they had done was to have entered other worlds and fallen into a small world where they found the Grandmaster and from there returned back to this place again. Therefore it could be someone who borrowed Lu Wuhu's name to infiltrate this sect. If so, Xuanyuan Ling would not allow someone to use the identity or name of her respected Masters!

"Who..."

Xuanyuan Ling's gaze turned cold in an instant as she began to look for the supposed new junior martial brother. But her gaze froze and shock hit her fiercely as she finally found the imposter, her beautiful face stunned as her voice got stuck in her throat.

Xuanyuan Ling looked dumbfounded at Ling Tian, who was smiling cheerfully at her with a playful touch full of curiosity.
