"Wow! This place is truly amazing, Brother Yun!" Li Na immediately exclaimed loudly as soon as they arrived at Yunlong Zuzhai. Even Yang Xiaoyi, Lin Fan, and Qing Ling felt amazed after they saw the residence.
"I really admire you, Brother Yun! I've cultivated much longer than you, but your feats and achievements are far beyond my reach." Ling Yun smiled at that, and Lin Fan then patted his shoulder. "Even though I feel weird about our relationship, especially since you are my mother's lover, but as a cultivator, I won't mind your relationship, and I'm sure you will make her happier in the future."
"Haha! Of course, I will make Xiaoyi happy, and I will also treat her fairly like my other women." Ling Yun answered as he laughed; he then touched Lin Fan and Qing Ling's foreheads, and he gave them the dual cultivation technique. "Since you guys are already planning to get married, the technique will be useful for both of you, and your cultivation will improve faster like Zhang Bing and the others."
"Thank you, Brother Yun." Li Fan and Qing Ling gratefully replied to him.
Although he didn't know Qing Ling very well, she would be Yang Xiaoyi's daughter-in-law soon, so he also treated her like his own family.
Suddenly, Li Na tugged at his sleeve. "Why don't you give it to me too, Brother Yun?"
Ling Yun smiled and touched her forehead, and he passed the Yin-Yang Art to her. Even though he still acted casually with her, he had long since realized her feelings.
Li Na's face turned red after she saw those lewd images, but she smiled sweetly and giggled. "Hehe. Thank you, Brother Yun."
Yang Xiaoyi sighed in her heart, seeing her daughter's expression. 'Tch! Sooner or later, this wolf will eat my daughter too!'
After that, Yi Mingxia took Yang Xiaoyi and the others to choose their rooms in Yunlong Zuzhai, and she also explained about the fortress to them.
Li Fan and Qing Ling decided to stay in the fortress, especially since Ling Yun and his woman lived in Yunlong Zuzhai, so they felt uncomfortable staying among them.
Not only them, but Zhang Bing and Yuan Meng also brought their families to live in the fortress. Besides, Yi Shi and Jiang Chen also joined them, especially since their relationship with Tang Yao and Tang Liqin had progressed further.
After everything was settled, Tang Zhiyi took them all away to Cultivator Peak through the Space Door.

Zhang Xingcai and the members of the Zhang Clan were waiting for them, except Zhang Fan. She immediately hugged Ling Yun's arm and told him. "I've persuaded my grandfather to come with us, but he insisted on staying here, husband."
"I already expected that some people wouldn't be willing to come with us, especially since they've been staying in this place for too long." Ling Yun then turned to the other four. "I'm glad you guys decided to come with us."
"I certainly don't want to be separated from Xingcai, Yun'er." Lan Meng was the first to answer Ling Yun. "Moreover, my husband and son are also eager to go to higher realms, so we decided to go with you guys, but I'm a little sad to part with my family in the Fan Clan."
"En, I know how you feel, mother-in-law." Ling Yun replied as he let out a soft sigh. "However, you don't need to continue being sad, and you can return to this planet again after you guys become stronger in the future."
"That's true." Zhang Wei nodded in agreement with him. "Anyway, when we arrive in the higher realms, I won't continue to stay with you guys, and I want to go on an adventure to see the new world."
"Haha! I will accompany you, Father!" Zhang Long replied as he laughed. "As for my mother and wife, they can live with you guys while we go on adventures."
Lan Meng and Wang Lin's lips twitched after hearing their words, but they also deeply understood their desire for adventure, for they wanted to establish the new Zhang Clan there.
Since Wang Lin's family had died a long time ago, she didn't offer for her clan members to go with them, especially since they didn't know Ling Yun personally either.

Sometime later, Ling Yu'er and Ling Xiya landed before them, and they brought Ling Jie along.
Ling Yun raised his eyebrows for a moment, but he immediately nodded in understanding, for he knew for sure that Ling Yun'er loved her father very much. "Welcome aboard, father-in-law."
Ling Jie smiled awkwardly upon hearing Ling Yun address him as his father-in-law, especially since he was his late brother's son. "Yun'er, I know that we don't know each other, but I don't want to part with Yu'er, so I decided to accept her offer."
"It's okay." Ling Yun replied as he nodded. "Then what about that old man?"
"Humph!" Ling Yu'er snorted at that because she was still very angry towards Ling Ming, and she answered her husband. "I didn't invite him to come with us! And he can stay here until the end of his life!"
Ling Jie smiled bitterly at his daughter's words, and he could only sigh in resignation, for he had tried to persuade Ling Yu'er, but she would not be willing to change her decision.
Ling Yun didn't comment on Ling Yu'er's decision, especially since his relationship with Ling Ming wasn't good either, so he couldn't care less if his grandfather came with them or not.
Ling Xiya then said. "Even though my grandfather lives here alone, I'm sure he will be fine, Uncle Jie. After all, he has many friends, and there are no longer any threats lurking around."
"You are indeed right, Xiya." Ling Jie replied as he let out a soft sigh.
Ling Yun then told him. "Anyway, I'll ask Xiao Yin to check the injuries on your lower body, and I'm sure he can recover from your injuries."
"Eh?" Ling Jie was surprised to hear that, especially since his injury had lasted so long, and he had resigned himself to his fate a long time ago.
Ling Yu'er embraced her father's shoulders. "You don't need to doubt Yun'er's words, Father. I'm sure you can recover, and you can find a new wife after we arrive in the higher realms."
"Haha." Ling Jie laughed awkwardly at that. "Honestly, I didn't think much about it, and I already feel happy if you are happy, Yu'er."
"No." Ling Yu'er shook her head at him. "That bitch has caused you so much misery, so I want you to find your new happiness."
"All right." Ling Jie replied with a satisfied smile.
Suddenly, a portal opened in front of them, and Lian Bing led several women from the Lotus Sect out of it, but Ling Yun was surprised to see Bing Xue among them.
Ling Yun then asked Lian Bing. "So Han Xian, Xue Ying, and Yu Mei decided to stay in the sect, huh?"
"Yes." Lian Bing immediately explained it to him. "The three of them have stayed in the sect for too long, and they also couldn't leave their families, so they decided to stay here."
"I see." After all, many of them would go with him, so Ling Yun could understand their decision, and he then turned to the old woman standing at the very back. "Is she your grandmother, Su Ling?"
"En." Su Ling nodded to him, and she introduced her grandmother to Ling Yun. "Her name is Su Xiang. At first, she wanted to stay here, but I forced her to come with us."
Hearing that, Ling Yun approached them and took Su Xiang's hand. "Grandma, I know you will definitely miss this place, but Su Ling really loves you, so you shouldn't blame her for forcing you. Moreover, there are so many people who will go with us, so I'm sure that you won't feel lonely."
"Ling'er is right; you are indeed a good young man." Su Xiang answered as she patted his hand, and she then turned to her granddaughter before continuing. "You don't need to worry; I don't blame her, and I just feel sentimental about leaving this place."
"Haha." Su Ling giggled and hugged her grandmother's arm.
Suddenly, Ling Ling hugged Ling Yun and spoke to him through the Harem Connection. 'Yun'er, you have to think of a way to get close to my grandmaster. Sister Bing'er and I already gave your Yang Qi to her several times, so I think it will be easier for you to get to her.'
'Let's talk about her later.' Ling Yun replied as he shook his head, but his eyes glanced at Bing Xue, who immediately turned her face to the side. He then asked the other Lotus Sect's core disciples. "Are you three ready to live a new life? After we leave this place, I will take you all to another planet in this lower realm, and we will train there for some time in preparation before going to the higher realms, especially since we will face many tough challenges there."
"Yes! We are ready for that!" Qiao Yan, Sun Xinxin, and Mu Lingxue answered simultaneously, and their expressions clearly showed that they were already impatient for it.
However, Ling Yun suddenly frowned when he felt a hostile aura directed at him. He then looked up into the sky and saw Situ Luan flying towards them along with her family. 'I see, that stupid guy is really ungrateful, huh?'
