Layla sighed and answered. "I want you to remove your slave mark on her and let her return to the demon realm with me."
"Hmm?" Ling Yun raised his eyebrows for a moment, then shook his head. "I will never let Kate go, especially since she tried to kill my woman before, and she's been lucky enough that I don't treat her as badly as my other enemy."
"You enslaved my daughter! That is the worst thing!" Layla shouted angrily at him.
Hearing that, Ling Yun got off the bed and walked towards her, but his body was shrouded by darkness, and his eyes turned blood-red, making Layla feel a chill down her spine.
Ling Xi frowned after seeing that; this was the third time she had seen Ling Yun like that, but this time he looked even more terrifying. 'So this is the effect of breaking the seal on his bloodline? Does that mean he can control his bloodline now?'
Ling Yun stood right in front of Layla and looked directly into her eyes, he then stretched out his hand and grabbed her cheeks, and she just stood there frozen by the influence of his blood-red eyes. "A few days ago, I spared your husband even though he and his men killed Duan Wu, but now I have decided never to be merciful to my enemies. Even though you are Kate's mother, if you want to be my enemy, I won't spare you either."
Layla trembled at Ling Yun's cold words. Despite being much stronger than him, she was frightened by his blood-red eyes. She grabbed his hand and tried to get it off her cheek, but he gripped it tighter. "Let me go!"
"Heh." Ling Yun snorted softly and retracted his hand, and he immediately returned to normal again. "I advise you not to do anything bad in this house, or I will not let you go. Now, leave my room; I will not change my decision about Kate."
Layla glared at Ling Yun for a moment before turning into a bat again, and she left the room immediately.
"I thought you would do something to her." Ling Xi said as she floated into Ling Yun's arms.
Ling Yun shook his head at her. "I know she's acting like that because she really cares about her daughter, so I don't intend to do anything for her, and I just want to give her a bit of deterrence."
"I see." Ling Xi then asked him. "Are you able to control your bloodline now?"
"Nope." Ling Yun then carried Ling Xi onto the bed and hugged her tightly. "Honestly, I'm having trouble controlling my bloodline now and trying hard to hold back my lust."
"Oh?" Ling Xi looked at him in surprise, she had witnessed Ling Yun having sex with Wei Lan, but she didn't feel anything unusual about him.
Ling Yun sighed heavily and explained to her. "After one seal in my bloodline was unlocked, my lust became uncontrollable. Fortunately, I can still control myself, or Wei Lan will suffer because of me."
"Why do you have to hold back?" Ling Xi then kissed him lips for a moment. "Let's enter the Yin-Yang Chamber, you can do whatever you want to me, and I will help you to satisfy your lust."
Ling Yun smiled upon hearing that and opened a portal to the Yin Yang Chamber, and he immediately brought Ling Xi inside. In no time, they were completely naked, and they were dual cultivating until morning.
After they disappeared, Yun Mingyue walked into his room, but to her dismay, she did not find Ling Yun and lay down on his bed.

The next day, when Ling Yun, Ling Xi, and Helena came out of the Yin-Yang Chamber, Yi Mingxia and the others were already waiting for them in the living room; even the women who had been in Beijing had also arrived.
Apart from them, Long Qiu and his two disciples were also in the house, but Ling Yun raised his eyebrows after seeing their condition, for their bodies were full of bruises. "She really trained you guys hard, huh?"
"Ha ha." Zhang Bing laughed wryly at that. "Master really didn't hold back, and he forced us to fight those beasts repeatedly."
"That's right." Yuan Meng agreed with her lover's words. "My body aches all over right now."
"Well, I know it's hard, but it will be good for you two." Ling Yun then bought two pills from his system shop.
[You have successfully purchased the Middle Grade Healing Pill x2! 100,000 C has been deducted from your account.]
Ling Yun then passed the two pills to them. "You guys can swallow it now; your wounds will soon recover."
"Okay." They immediately swallowed the pill, and the injuries on their bodies disappeared very quickly.
Zhang Bing then said. "Your pills are truly extraordinary, Brother Yun!"
"My body is no longer in pain now, and my injuries have completely disappeared." Yuan Meng also spoke in awe.
[You have successfully purchased the Bone Tempering Pill x2! 100,000 C has been deducted from your account.]
Ling Yun decided to give thos pills to them as well. "You guys can swallow that Bone Tempering Pill later, and it will be beneficial for strengthening your bones."
"Yes." Zhang Bing and Yuan Meng happily accepted the pill.
"Master!" Yun Mingyue jumped onto Ling Yun's lap and sulked. "I've been waiting for you all night, but you only came back this morning!"
Yi Mingxia and the others smiled in amusement at Yun Mingyue's behavior; Ling Yun rubbed her head and said to Ling Xi. "You can convey your plans to them now."
"Since you are now cultivators, your cultivation has also greatly increased. From today onwards, I want all of you to practice actual battles. Except for Little Mingxia, for she is not a combat cultivator, so she will focus more on healing." Ling Xi then looked at Yi Mingxia. "However, that doesn't mean you won't fight at all, and you must still learn basic fighting skills. If something gets your way, and we're not by your side, then you can still do something to protect yourself."
Yi Mingxia and the others were dumbfounded after hearing that because Ling Xi's plan was so sudden. So far, they had only dual cultivated with Ling Yun and never practiced fighting, except for Ling Ling, Yi Shu, and Feng Xing, who are quite experienced.
"I know what you all think, but sooner or later, Ling Yun will leave this world and go to another world. If you are all still like now, then you will be a burden to him in the future." Ling Xi immediately threw a bomb at them; she just wanted them to change their mindset and no longer think like ordinary people.
"Other worlds? Do other worlds really exist?" As a novelist, Ling Yin asked curiously; she was always curious about things that she never knew before.
"Other worlds do exist." Xiao Xiao answered her.
Meanwhile, Ye Jing, Yi Shu, Zhang Bing, and Yuan Meng were no longer surprised because Ling Xi had already told them beforehand.
"This world is called the Lowest Realm, and many higher worlds are out there. The highest world is called the Supreme Realm, and I come from that world." Ling Xi paused for a few moments before she continued. "Let alone in the Supreme Realm, even in a realm higher than this world, strength is everything. If you don't have sufficient strength, then all of you will be oppressed by stronger people."
They gasped at her words: they chose to stay silent and wait for Ling Xi to finish her explanation.
Ling Xi then spoke again. "Kill or be killed is a natural law in the true cultivation world, so I want you to train hard from now on. So when Ling Yun takes you guys to a higher world in the future, you will not be a burden to him."
The atmosphere in the room became silent for a moment; they all fell silently, contemplating Ling Xi's words in shock. They felt that the natural law in the true cultivation world was extremely harsh, kill or be killed; it was something they had never imagined before.
"What Sister Ling Xi said is true, let alone in a higher world, the Cultivator Realm is the same. In that place, too many people die every day." Ling Ling could understand their reactions because she used to be the same as them. "When I went to that place for the first time, I felt the same way as all of you. But after so many years in that place, I'm very used to it now, and I'm sure that in the higher worlds must be much crueler."
The atmosphere in the room fell into silence again; Yi Mingxia and the others were still unable to react. That was extremely terrifying to them, as they had been cultivators only a short time.
Ling Xi sighed softly, then she dropped another bomb at them. "In the future, Ling Yun has a huge responsibility awaits for him, and he will need help from all of you."
"A huge responsibility?" Ling Yun and the others turned to look at her.
Xiao Xiao, Shi Yao, and Lei Lin also glanced at her; they didn't expect that Ling Xi would talk about it.
Ling Xi then looked at Ling Yun seriously. "I can't say it right now, but when you and the others are ready, I'll tell you all about it."
