Xiao Xiao nodded to her. "Yes, it's been a long since we've seen each other, Senior Xiaofei. However, why did you and Senior Xiaoyin suddenly come here?"

"We just returned from Old Feng's place and came here on purpose to see Ling Yun's women." Ling Xiaofei replied with a faint smile; she then turned to Ling Xiya and Ling Yu'er. "However, I didn't expect two of his women to be from my Ling Clan."

Ling Yu'er pointed at he aunt as she said. "Ancestor, there are Aunt Yin and one more woman from our clan who became Yun'er's woman. However, Ling Ling is Sister Lian Bing's direct disciple, so she is not here now."

Ling Xiaofei nodded in understanding, and she didn't think about their relationship at all. After all, she had lived for a very long time and had also seen relationships like theirs too many times in the past.

Shi Xiaoyin then said. "Speaking of Lian Bing, I heard rumors in the city that she is also one of Ling Yun's women. Is that true?"

"Yes." It was Ling Xiya who answered her question. "Even though they haven't officially become a couple, Big Sis Lian has accepted Big Brother as her future husband."

"Hey, Xiaofei, your Ling Clan sure did produce an outstanding descendant, huh?" However, Ling Xiaofei only responded with a smile, and Shi Xiaoyin asked. "Shi Yao, which one is your daughter? I've met Ling Yun before, and he told me that your daughter is his wife too."

Shi Yao nodded to her, pulled her daughter to her side, and introduced her. "Ancestor, she is my daughter, Liu Qiyue."

"Qiyue-"

"No need." Shi Xiaoyin grabbed Liu Qiyue's hand to stop her from paying respect to her. "At first, I didn't intend to train you, but I changed my mind after meeting those old folks. Starting today, I will teach you about puppet techniques, and I will teach you a technique that solely belongs to me."

"Eh." Liu Qiyue was surprised and turned to her mother. Yet, Shi Yao only nodded at her, and she then answered Shi Xiaoyin. "Qiyue begs your guidance, Ancestor."

"That's good." Shi Xiaoyin nodded in satisfaction at Liu Qiyue's answer, and she then asked them. "Which of you doesn't have a Master yet?"

"We don't have a Master yet." Song Mei and Ying Zi answered her.

Ling Xiaofei directly observed them one by one before nodding. "All right, I will take you two as my disciples."

"Yes, Senior!" Song Mei and Ying Zi looked so excited to hear that, especially since only they didn't have a Master among Ling Yun's women.

After that, Ling Xiaofei and Shi Xiaoyin turned towards the dark dome, but they were instantly knocked back after they tried to peek inside.

"What the hell with that thing?" Shi Xiaoyin shouted in shock.

Ling Xiaofei also frowned, especially since she could feel an aura much stronger than her own from it. "Is Ling Yun in there?"

"Yes." Xiao Xiao answered with a nod. "Yun'er and his two women have been inside since last night, and we can't do anything to check their condition. However, we are sure they are fine, for this thing is his newest ability."

"Eh?" The two women were shocked to hear that.

On the other hand, Feng Bing'er and Feng Yujie, who had been silent until now, felt a strong attraction towards the aura from the dark dome, and they muttered the same thing in their hearts. 'It must be the aura of the Primordial Chaos Dragon, or else we wouldn't feel such attraction from it.'

They then approached the dark dome and touched it, making their hearts beat wildly. However, they immediately try hard to suppress their feelings, for they don't want to fall into that feeling of attraction.

Unlike the two ancestors of the Feng Clan, Feng Xing and the others did not feel anything from the dark dome, for they were not pureblood phoenixes.

"Why are you guys acting so weird all of a sudden?" Shi Xiaoyin asked as she patted their shoulders, but the two women did not respond to her.

Xiao Xiao frowned, seeing them like that. "Apparently, they have been affected by the aura from the dome. Just look at their gazes; they are only focused on it.

Ling Xiaofei nodded in agreement. Even though she was wearing a blindfold, she could see things that Shi Yao and the others couldn't, and she saw two threads of black aura on their chests. 'What exactly is that aura? Why do I feel so horrified by that aura?'

However, Feng Bing'er and Feng Yujie were suddenly blown backward, startling them.

Shi Xiaoyin and Ling Xiaofei immediately moved to catch them. However, they were shocked to find that they had fallen unconscious.

"What happened to them?" Shi Xiaoyin asked in confusion.

Ling Xiaofei shook her head. "I don't know, but I can see that the aura from that thing caused them to fall unconscious."

On the other hand, Xiao Xiao smiled and sighed with relief. 'Apparently, Yun'er has returned to his senses now, and he deliberately knocked them unconscious, especially since they were already affected by the aura of his bloodline.'

"You are right, Little Xiao." Ling Xi suddenly said to her, but she still had no intention of showing herself to Ling Xiaofei and Shi Xiaoyin. "If my guess is correct, they will soon be out of the dome."

'Yes.' Xiao Xiao nodded slightly, and she then said to those women. "Anyway, you guys don't have to wait for them anymore, and you can start training again."

Those women nodded in agreement, especially after they heard Ling Xi's words, and they immediately dispersed to begin their training as usual.

Long Qiu and Zhang Xingcai also brought Zhang Bing and Yuan Meng away to train them again, and only a few women stayed behind.

Ling Xiaofei started teaching Song Mei and Ying Zhi, and both women looked eager to listen to her instructions.

On the other hand, Shi Xiaoyin brought Shi Yao and Liu Qiyue to another area, and she taught them puppet techniques.

So only Ling Xi, Xiao Xiao, and Huo Ye were left waiting near the dark dome.

Meanwhile, Ling Yun had already returned to his senses, and he looked at the two sleeping women with a soft sigh. "Hey, Chaos Dragon! I know you can appear here, so come out quickly."

"Haha!" The Chaos Dragon rushed out from Ling Yun's body and laughed satisfactorily. "Originally, I thought you would still be out of control a bit longer, but you returned to your senses much quicker than I expected. Did you enjoy dual cultivating with the two of them?"

"What exactly did you give them? Why is that black dragon mark on their foreheads?" Ling Yun asked as he pointed at the two women's foreheads.

"Hehehe." The Chaos Dragon laughed at Ling Yun's panicked expression. "Anyway, it is not a slave mark but a mark that they are your partners and have become connected to you."

"Eh?" Ling Yun was surprised to hear that. "Then what's the benefit of that partner mark?"

"Didn't you already feel the effects when dual cultivating with the two of them?" The Chaos Dragon answered as he smiled mysteriously.

Ling Yun frowned at his words. "Damn, you! You knew I was out of control before, so I cannot understand the effect."

"Pft!" The Chaos Dragon burst into laughter. "Honestly, I created the partner mark to strengthen my women's physique; only then can they satisfy my lust."

"Hmm?" Ling Yun raised his eyebrows upon hearing that.

"Since they are connected to me, I can share my vitality with them, and they won't tire easily." Ling Yun's eyes lit up upon hearing that, but the Chaos Dragon hurriedly spoke again. "However, you can only use the partner mark on two women for now, for your physique is still not strong enough to distribute your vitality to many women at once. If you force yourself to do that, then your strength in dual cultivation will drop drastically, and you will not be able to satisfy them."

Ling Yun sighed upon hearing that. "Each technique must have its own weakness, right?"

"Yes."

"So when can I give my other women the partner mark?" Ling Yun impatiently asked. If they could all become stronger to serve him, he would no longer need to add more women to his side, especially since his number of women was already quite numerous.

"Every time your cultivation rises by one minor stage, you can give the partner mark to another two women." Seeing Ling Yun's expression turn cheerful, the Chaos Dragon told him again. "However, you can only share your vitality with them if you dual cultivate with them in this dark dome, and you won't be able to bring in women who don't have the partner mark into here."

"Huh?" Ling Yun looked at the Chaos Dragon in confusion, especially since he had not given the partner mark to Feng Ling'er and Su Fei before.

The Chaos Dragon sighed softly and explained to him. "The two of them were able to enter this place because they dual cultivated with you when you first activated this ability, but now you won't be able to do it again unless they already possess the partner mark."

"I see." Ling Yun nodded in understanding. Since he could only share his vitality with women who had already received the partner mark, then it would be useless if he brought in his other women. "Then what are the benefits of this dome?"
