[Do you really want to build your harem kingdom in this forest?] Ling Xi asked with a teasing tone straight into his mind.
Ling Yun inwardly laughed wryly; he had forgotten that Ling Xi could tell what he was thinking. 'Haha, it's really not about that. As you can see, more than twenty women are by my side, and I think their number will continue to grow. So I thought to find a peaceful place for all of us, and the heart of this forest is the best choice to accommodate all of us.'
[Honestly, your plan is already good. There are too many of us if you gather us together, and it would be too conspicuous for us to live in the city. Moreover, we could also attract enemies, so I will support your plan.]
Even though Ling Xi could protect them all if they stayed in the city, Ling Yun did not wish to continue to depend on her, and the situation in the heart of the central forest suited them better.
"Anyway, I'll first go to the outside world to pick up my grandma and the others." Without waiting for their response, Ling Yun immediately activated his device and disappeared from their sight.
.

"Eh? Why did you suddenly come back, Yun'er?" Song Mei asked as soon as Ling Yun appeared before her.
Without saying anything, Ling Yun hugged his grandmother and kissed her passionately, and his hands squeezed her buttocks.
Since she missed her grandson so much, Song Mei, without hesitation, hugged and kissed Ling Yun back, and they kissed for quite some time.
After that, Ling Yun pulled Song Mei out of the room. "Let's meet the others; I plan to bring you all to the cultivator realm right now."
"Huh?" Song Mei was surprised to hear that. "Are you serious? I and the others can't go to that place yet, and we will only be a burden to you there."
"Grandma, you don't need to think about it. Many people are waiting for us there, and they will accompany and guide you all to practice combat."
Moments later, they arrived in the living room. However, Ling Yin directly jumped and hugged Ling Yun like an octopus, and their lips pressed against each other while kissing passionately.
Xiao Xiao and Shi Yao shook their heads, seeing them like that. As for Lei Lin, her eyes kept looking at Ling Yun's face, and no one knew her thoughts.
However, Liu Qiyue and Ying Zi also did the same after Ling Yun and Ling Yin stopped kissing, and they kissed him in turn.
After they finished kissing, Ling Yun immediately sat down before the two senior cultivators and said to them. "Aunt Shi! Big Sis Xiao! I will bring them all to the cultivator realm now. Will you two come with us?"
"Hmm? Why do you suddenly want to bring them to that place?" Xiao Xiao asked with a raised eyebrow.
Hearing that, Ling Yun immediately explained his plans to them, including his intention to build a residence in the heart of the Central Forest.
Even though they were shocked by the whole plan, Xiao Xiao and Shi Yao knew everything was for the best for them. As long as Ling Yin, Ying Zi, Liu Qiyue, and Song Mei continued to train in the outside world, their combat skills would never improve.
"All right, I agree with you, and I will accompany you guys to the Cultivator Realm." Xiao Xiao answered as she nodded.
Although she didn't like living in that place, Shi Yao also agreed with Ling Yun's decision. Moreover, Liu Qiyue was also going with him, and she still had to train her daughter to deepen her puppet technique.
"That's good." Ling Yun nodded with a satisfied smile.
The four women quickly got things ready, and Ling Yun immediately brought them to the Cultivator Realm.
However, not long after they left, Hua Yue arrived at Su Fei's house, but no one opened the door after she pressed the bell for quite a while.
"Where did they go? Did they all go to that place?" Hua Yue could only sigh in her heart and turned to leave Su Fei's house. She had actually come to inquire about Ling Yun, for she wanted to talk and persuade him to turn her into a contract demon.
.
.
.
After they exited the portal, Song Mei gaped as she saw so many women there, especially since she didn't recognize many of them.
Ling Yin, Ying Zi, and Liu Qiyue smiled wryly at the women who were unfamiliar to them, and they muttered the same thing in their hearts. 'Tch! Our sisters are increasing more and more, and Yun'er will find it hard to divide his time between all of us.'
Ling Yun introduced them one by one, but the four women were surprised that some were not their new sisters but were just friends and dual cultivation partners.
On the other hand, Ling Yun immediately raised his eyebrows when he sensed the presence of someone quite far away from them, and he could sense it because that person was watching him.
Ling Xi also noticed that person's presence. Yet, she couldn't feel anything strange or malicious intentions from that person.
As for those senior cultivators, none of them sensed that person's presence, especially since their senses were less sensitive than Ling Yun's.
Ling Yun immediately opened the map to see that person's identity, and he was surprised when Alea's name appeared. 'Oh? At first, I thought Danielle would come here herself, but she sent her instead. However, why do I feel that woman's aura is no different from us, Ling Xi?'
'Hmm?' Ling Xi thought as she observed Alea with her senses, and soon she answered Ling Yun's question. 'Apparently, she's wearing a device that can make her aura similar to ours. So what are you going to do about her now? Are you going to enslave her?'
'No.' Ling Yun replied with a shake of his head. 'Since Alea is a Mana user, she won't be able to give me Yin Qi, so it will be useless if I enslave her. However, you can capture and alter her memories; only then can she be useful to me.'
'All right.' Ling Xi instantly disappeared from their presence.
Xiao Xiao immediately asked with a raised eyebrow. "Where did she go, Yun'er?"
"You will find out in a moment, Big Sis Xiao." Ling Yun replied with a mysterious smile.
*Bam*
"Argh!" Alea screamed in pain when Ling Xi slammed her to the ground, and she immediately restricted her movements.
"Who is she?" Shi Yao asked with a frown, for she felt something strange on Alea's body. However, she couldn't recognize it, especially since she was still wearing the device Danielle gave her.
"Her name is Alea, and she is a subordinate of Danielle, the sole daughter of those blessed people leader." Ling Yun explained to them.
"What?" The women exclaimed in shock upon hearing that, and Xiao Xiao said. "But how could this woman have the aura of us cultivators?"
Alea was utterly shocked at Ling Yun's words. 'Damn it! How could this happen? My Master said that no one will recognize me, but this man can even recognize my and my Master's identities.'
Ling Yun chuckled at Xiao Xiao's question; he then squatted beside Alea and took the device from her neck. Instantly, she returned to her original appearance, and the cultivator's aura disappeared from her body.
Ling Yun then showed the device to them. "Apparently, those people have long studied about cultivators; they could even create such a device to trick us."
"So she's really one of them, huh?" Xiao Xiao then glanced at Ling Yun. "But how can you recognize her identity?"
"Big Sis Xiao, I previously went to their realm, and I've seen this woman before." Ling Yun deliberately said that, for he never intended to tell anyone about the system.
"So what are you going to do with her, Yun'er?" Feng Ling'er asked.
Ling Yun smiled upon hearing that. "Hey, Ling Xi. You can alter Alea's memories and turn her loyal to me."
'Fuck! This bastard!' Alea screamed in her heart and struggled to break free from Ling Xi's restrictions.
However, Alea's efforts were futile, for Ling Xi was much stronger than her leader, Travis.
Ling Xi directly touched Alea's forehead and tried to read her memories first. However, those people also put a barrier to her memories.
In the end, Ling Xi directly altered Alea's memories according to Ling Yun's request, and she became completely loyal to him.
"Done." Ling Xi then released Alea from her restraints.
After that, Alea got up from the ground, knelt before Ling Yun, and greeted him respectfully. "Master, I await your orders."
After hearing Alea's words, Xiao Xiao and the others took a deep breath. They stared at Ling Xi in awe and horror and did not dare to imagine her doing the same to them.
"Since you are Danielle's subordinate, you must know more information than Su Yuan, right?" Ling Yun asked as he sat down and pulled Ling Xi into his lap.
Alea nodded. "Yes, Master."
"In that case, I want you to tell us all the information you know about Travis and the others."
Alea nodded and started to tell Ling Yun everything; the women also listened to her seriously, for it concerned their future.
Unfortunately, all of Alea's information wasn't significant enough to help them. Still, they had at least gotten quite helpful information about their abilities.
