"Hmm?" Feng Bing'er raised her eyebrows for a moment before shaking her head. "I don't have the answer to that, but I'm pretty sure he and Feng Lao are somewhere out there, and we'll probably meet them again when we start investigating the destruction of the Phoenix World."
"Do you really believe that our world still exists, Big Sis?"
Feng Bing'er sighed softly. "I believe that Senior Ling Xi isn't lying to us, but it's clear in my memories that it is already destroyed, so we can only prove the truth by going there. However, we still have to wait for Ling Yun to become stronger, especially since only he can enter the crimson sphere that surrounds that place. Moreover, we don't know what's waiting for us there, so we still have to increase our strength too."
"If it still exists, I think those evil mythical beasts will keep an eye on it." Feng Being'er nodded in agreement with that. "Anyway, I want to ask Xiao Yin how far our planet is from the Star Cloud Realm, so we can prepare everything from now on."
"All right."

Elsewhere, the three women were also talking with each other, but they were not discussing anything as serious as the Feng Ancestors, and Shi Xiaoyin suddenly teased her best friend. "Hey, Xiaofei! I'm sure that Ling Yun deliberately did that with them there to bait you, and he seems very interested in taking you as a member of his harem; he even kept teasing you in the last two months."
"Didn't he tease you too?" Ling Xiaofei asked with a deadpan look, but then turned to the other woman. "Among us, it seems that Ling Yun is not interested in you; he doesn't even flirt with you, Shi Yao."
"Haha." Shi Yao laughed before replying to her. "Even if Ling Yun was interested in me, I would never be interested in my son-in-law. Unlike his other women, my daughter would not be able to accept me having a relationship with him, so I continued to maintain my position like this."
"That's true; not all women can accept such a weird relationship." Ling Xiaofei then asked Shi Xiaoyin. "Are you thinking about becoming a member of his harem?"
"Why do you think so?" Shi Xiaoyin asked back as she smiled. "I have to admit that I'm tempted to dual cultivate with him, but I've never thought about becoming a member of his harem, and I'll leave this place as soon as we arrive in higher realms."
"In that case, I will go with you, and we will explore all the areas of the new planet later, Ancestor." Shi Yao said this to Shi Xiaoyin.
"All right, but you should discuss this with Qiyue first, or she will feel sad if you leave without telling her first." Shi Yao nodded in agreement with her, and Shi Xiaoyin then asked Ling Xiaofei. "What about you? Are you going with us or staying here with them?"
"I haven't decided my future yet." Ling Xiaofei shook her head. "However, I will probably stay with them for a while, and I want to train his woman first, but I will catch up with you two after they are all truly independent."
"You deliberately used them as an excuse to stay by Ling Yun's side, right?" Shi Xiaoyin teased Ling Xiaofei instead. "If it's like that, I think you should be his woman as well, so the two of you won't be separated."
Ling Xiaofei immediately shut her mouth after hearing that, and she had no intention of confirming or refuting Shi Xiaoyin's words, making the two women laugh at her.

"Why are you daydreaming here, Ancestor Bing?" Qin Shuang asked as she sat in front of Bing Xue, but her eyes suddenly fell on the small bottle in her hand. "What's in that bottle?" Why do you keep looking at it so seriously?"
"It's nothing." Bing Xue replied by shaking her head as she kept the bottle; it was impossible for her to tell Qin Shuang that the content of the bottle was Ling Yun's yang qi. "That kid is really shameless; he even did intimate things with them in the main garden, and he also doesn't care about all of us who live here."
Qin Shuang just smiled when she heard that, for she also felt uncomfortable with their activities. But she was just a guest at Ling Yun's residence, so she didn't feel entitled to stop him. "If you feel uncomfortable, you should move to the fortress, so you won't see or hear him doing such things."
Instead, Bing Xue asked him. "What about you? Don't you feel disturbed by their activities?"
"Not really." Qin Shuang answered by shaking her head. "Even though my sect is not a dual cultivation sect, life in my sect is too free, and many of my disciples often do the same things, so I am used to such activities."
"I see." Bing Xue nodded in understanding. "So what are your plans after we arrive in the higher realms? Are you going to leave this place immediately?"
Qin Shuang sighed softly before explaining it to her. "Since we are all going to start a new life on a new planet, I decided to stay with them for a while. However, after I study the situation on that planet carefully, I will go traveling to broaden my horizons and increase my strength."
"Don't you have plans to join one of the sects on that new planet?" Bing Xue asked her.
"For decades, I have focused and devoted my life completely to my sect, so I will no longer join any sect. Additionally, I believe that being a rogue cultivator is not inferior to being a sect member, and I do not need to abide by the sect's rules so I can live my life freely." Bing Xue could understand her feelings because she also felt the same way, and Qin Shuang then asked her. "What about you? What are your plans? Are you also going on an adventure?"
"Hmm?" Bing Xue raised her eyebrows for a moment before answering her. "I don't have any plans for now, and I still need to think things through first. Moreover, Bing'er, Ling'er, and the others will continue to live here, so I'll stay with them for the time being."
"I see." After that, they talked about many other things.

Meanwhile, several young women were gathering on the edge of a small lake, and they were chatting and joking with each other.
In fact, Huo Jun forbade his twin daughters from going to Yunlong Zuzhai, but they didn't heed his words because they were very bored with continuing to stay in the Celestial Fortress, and the core disciples of the Lotus Sect were the same age as them, so both of them wanted to hang out with them.
"Hey, Sister Lingxue! When will you become Ling Yun's woman?" Qiao Yan curiously asked her.
Mu Lingxue's face turned red after hearing that. "Honestly, I was ready to be his woman, and I also confessed my feelings to him a month ago, but Ling Yun asked me to wait for my Ice Heart Lotus Technique to reach the upper level first."
"Haha." Sun Xinxin laughed and teased her. "In that case, you have to train your technique more diligently, Sister Lingxue. If you continue wasting time like this, then some other woman will precede you to become his woman. Just listen to them; even Sister Tang keeps moaning lewdly like that, and I'm sure Ling Yun will definitely take the three of them as his women today."
"Tch!" Mu Lingxue gritted her teeth after hearing that. "You should think more about yourself; even your Ice Heart Lotus hasn't been broken through to middle level for long!"
"Humph!" Sun Xinxin snorted and pouted her lips.
Huo Ziqi suddenly asked her. "Sister Lingxue, what exactly made you fall in love with Ling Yun? I know he is kind and handsome, but his women are numerous, so I feel curious about that."
Mu Lingxue turned to her with a hesitant look, especially since the beginning of her relationship with Ling Yun was unusual, and Qiao Yan then told Huo Ziqi. "She fell in love with Ling Yun after he kissed her for the first time at the competition back then, and he kissed her a second time when he visited our sect."
"Qiao Yan!"
"Isn't that what actually happened between the two of you? So you don't need to be angry, right?" Qiao Yan then ignored Mu Lingxue and spoke again. "After that, Ling Yun took her to a special place, and she spent a long time with him there, so you shouldn't be surprised if she's crazy about him now."
"A special place?" The Huo Twins looked at Qiao Yan with a confused look.
However, Sun Xinxin hurriedly said to them. "We can't tell you two about Ling Yun's special place, and you can ask him directly if you want to know about it, but I can tell you that the place is very suitable for practicing our difficult technique."
The Huo Twins exchanged glances for a moment and nodded to each other, but they decided to meet Ling Yun after he was done with the three women.
"Anyway, where is Su Ling? Why didn't she join us?" Mu Lingxue asked her two sect sisters.
Qiao Yan directly told her. "Grandma Xiang asked Sister Su to accompany her, and they are probably talking about Ling Yun right now."
