"Big Sis, my husband actually doesn't plan to stay in this realm." Tang Jingling wanted to interrupt her, but Mu Shu hurriedly explained it to her. "We came here to check the situation in your clan first, for Yixiu is worried that you guys are not willing to accept them, so her clan members and my other sisters are waiting elsewhere."
"Even though we have been separated for hundreds of years, all of us are still descendants of the same clan, so there is no need to doubt that we will accept them." A satisfied smile appeared on Mu Shu's face after hearing Tang Jingling's answer, especially since many cultivators thought more about status than their families, and some of them were even willing to sacrifice their families for the sake of status and power. "Moreover, Ancestor Tang Chen is still alive and well, and he definitely won't reject his descendants from earth."
Mu Shu nodded in satisfaction. "In that case, Yixiu's worries are unfounded, and we can leave them in this realm so they can gather with you all."
Tang Jingling nodded at her. "Even so, there will definitely be resistance from some of my clan members, especially since they have made great contributions to raising our clan."
"En." Mu Shu sighed softly. "Such things are unavoidable; all of them are strong cultivators, and the members of the Tang Clan from earth can't compare to them, so they will regard them as a burden."
"Yes." Tang Jingling agreed with her words. "We have lived in the upper realm for too long, and many of them were born in this realm, so their mindset is different from the people on earth. For them, strength is everything, and most of them would look down on people with low cultivation. However, they won't dare say anything if my ancestor has already made up his mind about them, so you guys don't need to think about them, and they will definitely get used to each other sooner or later."
"I hope so." Mu Shu replied with a soft sigh.
Tang Jingling then asked her again. "Did you guys come to this realm using the fortress that my ancestor and Tang Xiao built?"
"Eh?" Mu Shu turned to him in surprise.
"Hehe." Tang Jingling giggled at Mu Shu's surprised expression. "I am a direct descendant of Ancestor Chen, and he already told us that there will be his descendants who will come from earth using the fortress someday, but not everyone in our clan knows about it."
Mu Shu sighed and nodded to her. "We did come to this realm using the fortress, but my husband is the real owner, for he was the first to discover it. Even so, Tang Wan is one of his wives, and he already considers all members of the Tang Clan as his own family."
"That's really good." Tang Jingling then asked again. "So how many of them came to this realm?"
"Less than thirty, and almost all of them are women." Mu Shu replied as she smiled faintly.
"Oh?" Tang Jingling turned to Mu Shu in surprise. "Does that mean they are also your husband's women?"
"No, my husband has no interest in them, or else they would have become his wives by now." Mu Shu then told her. "The only man among them is Tang Heng, and he is Tang Wan's father. As for the other women, some of them already have their own lovers."
"I see." Tang Jingling nodded in understanding. "Can you take me to the fortress? I want to meet them to explain to them about the situation in my clan, so they won't be anxious and afraid when they meet the others later."
"I'm sorry, but I have to ask my husband's permission about this first." Mu Shu did not dare to decide that on her own, especially since she had not known Tang Jingling for long. Even though she was a close friend of her big sister, the situation in the fortress was very different, so she felt it was necessary to ask Ling Yun for approval first.
Tang Jingling didn't mind it, and she felt it was natural that Mu Shu couldn't fully trust her yet. "All right, you can ask for his permission first."
After that, Mu Shu tried to contact Ling Yun, but he did not answer her calls because he was still lost in his cultivation. So she immediately contacted Ling Xi, especially since she was the strongest among them and could read other people's memories.
Before long, Ling Xi had already given Mu Shu the answer, and she allowed her to bring Tang Jingling to the fortress, especially since she had already gotten a lot of information from Tang Chen's memories, so she knew that she was not much different from her ancestor.
Mu Shu then said to Tang Jingling. "I'll take you to the fortress right now."
"That's good!" Tang Jingling exclaimed excitedly after she heard that, but the sky above Brilliant Star City suddenly turned dark very quickly, and countless lightning bolts flashed above her clan. "What's going on? Who among my clan members is breaking through? Moreover, this is no ordinary breakthrough, and it's much stronger than when my grandfather broke through to Saint God Realm back then!"
"Big Sis, it's not your clan members who are breaking through now, but my husband's." Tang Jingling turned to Mu Shu in surprise, and she told her straight away. "This is only the beginning of his breakthrough, and you will witness a phenomenon you have never seen before after this."
Hearing that, Tang Jingling immediately grabbed Mu Shu's hand. "Let's return to my clan right now! I want to witness your husband's breakthrough!"

Tang Chen frowned after he felt the changes that occurred in the area around his clan. He immediately stopped his qi and withdrew his hand. "This kid is truly a monster! I've never felt the heaven this angry before! They seem to be really eager to kill him!"
"Haha." Ling Xi laughed at his words. "In fact, this is not the first time heaven has tried to kill my husband, and they have already tried to kill him twice."
"What exactly has he done to provoke the wrath of heaven?" Tang Chen asked as he turned to Ling Xi.
"I'll explain to you later, but we need to take him away, or else his lightning tribulation will wipe out your clan."
"I will take him to my cultivation site, so those idiots won't dare disturb him from breaking through." After he said that, Tang Xiao grabbed Ling Yun's shoulders, and the five of them disappeared from the room.
In the blink of an eye, they had arrived at an empty area, and Tang Chen dropped Ling Yun right in the middle of it before he took Ling Xi, Lei Lin, and Bai Zhongyi to the side, and he immediately activated the formation in that place.
"Oh?" Ling Xi was shocked after she saw the formation. "Why did you activate it? This formation will definitely be destroyed if it is hit by his lightning tribulation."
"You don't need to think about it." Tang Chen then explained the formation to the two women. "This formation is not to prevent his lightning tribulation, but it is to prevent people with malicious intentions from approaching this place, so he can break through safely and peacefully."
"I see." Ling Xi nodded in understanding. "So this formation is one of Tang Xiao's legacies, huh?"
"Yes." Tang Chen replied with a nod. "Apart from bringing us here, Tang Xiao also left various things for us. That's why my clan was able to become the strongest in this realm in a short time, and our cultivation improved much faster than that of other cultivators."
"You guys-"
"Ancestor!"
Suddenly, they heard several people calling out to Tang Chen, and four people landed in front of them, but they were surprised by the presence of Ling Xi and Bai Zhongyi.
"That young man came from earth, and these two women are his women." Tang Chen said to them as he pointed at Ling Yun. "Besides, he is the husband of one of my descendants, and they brought some of them to this realm."
"Eh?" The four people were even more shocked after they heard his words.
However, before they could ask him, Tang Jingling and Mu Shu had already landed there.
"Ancestor! Grandpa! Father! Mother! Big Brother!" Tang Jingling then introduced Mu Shu to them. "This girl is Yanyan's little sister, and she is Mo Chen's wife."
"Oh?" They were surprised to hear that, and Tang Chen observed Mu Shu's face. "Your face does resemble Little Yanyan, but you look naughtier than her."
"That's true." The middle-aged woman, who was none other than Tang Jingling's mother, Bu Lianxing, said this as she nodded in agreement. She then pulled Mu Shu closer and rubbed her face. "You might not remember me, but I have seen you a few times when you were little, and you are indeed more mischievous than Little Yanyan."
Their words rendered Mu Shu speechless, but she did not dispute the fact that she was indeed more mischievous than her big sister.
"Haha." Bu Lianxing laughed softly, seeing Mu Shu like that. "Even so, you are no less beautiful than your big sister, but I didn't expect that you were married earlier than her."
Suddenly, Tang Jingling's grandfather, Tang Haoshi, asked Tang Chen. "What happened to that young man, Ancestor? How could he trigger the wrath of heaven?"
