The Way of The Dao

"Master knows in his heart all that you have done and how you have suffered up to this moment. All the grievances and torments you have suffered I will bear them myself from now on so that you will not have to suffer any more. Master will keep you safe and sound and heal all your wounds. I will definitely make you both very happy. Even if you find exceptional husbands worthy of you, I will not allow you to suffer any more... I will not let my adored and beloved girls suffer any misfortune."

Exceptional and worthy husbands?

Zhao Yu's happy expression dimmed and Gu Yan's smile froze. They were as if their hearts had been severely cut by a knife at that moment, feeling the coldness of reality.

This... was very painful!

Ever since they both grew up, ever since they understood the affections between a man and a woman, as well as the unique bonds of love, Ling Tian had been their closest relative and loved one. Ling Tian was their great obsession in their hearts, becoming their support and goal as they crazily cultivated all their lives to be on par with him, especially in the past few years, manically increasing their strength and crazily searching endlessly for his whereabouts!

This was true! It was what prompted their hearts, the reason for their family affection!

But they also knew that Ling Tian only saw them as girls and not as women; Ling Tian's personal love life was more or less known and they knew about his broken and disappointed heart, so both women planned to slowly cure Ling Tian with their own feelings!

Yes! Zhao Yu and Gu Yan knew about each other's pure feelings and in the end agreed to become the most important women to Ling Tian. Time was plenty and they created countless plans to slowly get closer to Ling Tian so that he would start to see them as women, not as his daughters or little girls! Especially that he would notice their feelings!

Their instantly stiff bodies was noticed by Ling Tian, who hurriedly asked, "Yu'er? Yan'er? Are you all right? Sit here on the bed beside Master." Ling Tian thought that there were some active wounds still.

Zhao Yu took a deep breath and Gu Yan tried to steady her agitated heart. Both women had been in love with Ling Tian for a long time, but they didn't dare to reveal it at first for fear that Ling Tian wouldn't take them seriously and think it was a joke. But after going through everything so far, and suffering the anguish that they almost lost their most loved one and now they had him by their side, they could no longer hold their feelings in their hearts!

A spark of boldness and anticipation sprouted in their hearts at this moment!

"Master, Yu'er doesn't care about any man and will be alone for the rest of her life. Unless Yu'er's husband is you!" Zhao Yu's expression turned resolute without stepping back, instantly blushing and enhancing a captivating face. Her beautiful eyes shone with a determined gleam and she did not avert her gaze this time. Her exquisite hands took Ling Tian's hand and boldly hugged it against her chest!

"Yan'er also has only Master in her heart and will not accept anyone else! If Yan'er has to marry, she will only marry Master!" Gu Yan took Ling Tian's other hand and her beautiful eyes showed a decisiveness and firmness at this moment that she rarely showed! Along with an intense blush, her face became enchanting. Her heartbeat became much faster as she boldly pulled Ling Tian's hand towards her chest as well!

For the first time, Zhao Yu and Gu Yan became bold and determined towards Ling Tian regarding this matter!

Ling Tian froze, his body completely rigid. He felt as if a fierce lightning bolt had struck him and his mind that always processed everything at an astonishing level could not help but stagnate at this situation.

What nonsense were these disciples saying towards their Master?

These girls... are they joking or something?

But looking at Zhao Yu and Gu Yan's expressions, Ling Tian realized that they were not joking. He couldn't help but feel completely overwhelmed despite having lived for over ten millennia and understand more by remembering part of his past life.

Looking at Ling Tian's dumbfounded expression, both Zhao Yu and Gu Yan felt dejected and somewhat bitter. But at the same time, a joy and excitement filled their hearts, as they had finally said what they had held in their hearts for countless years!

Courageously and boldly, Gu Yan and Zhao Yu leaned against Ling Tian's sides without letting go of each other's arms. Their soft heads rested timidly on Ling Tian's shoulders as they boldly pressed their bodies lightly towards his. Then, both women whispered shyly and nervously while blushing even more:

"Master is the person Yan'er loves the most. Yan'er has decided to always be with Master and will not be able to get rid of Yan'er unless you kill her personally. My heart will only belong to you, Master!"

"Master, Yu'er knows that you think women are evil and self-interested, and that they have hurt your heart. But there really is no worthy woman who is worthwhile and can have Master's heart. But Yu'er is different and will always be with you, Yu'er will never abandon you and I will always, but always love you!"

A peace, relief and emotion filled the hearts of Gu Yan and Zhao Yu as they expressed all that they had held. Their hearts beat like thousands of warring drums as the sweet flutters in their stomachs made them feel shy, embarrassed, with great expectations.

"B-but you are like my beloved daughters..."

""But we don't see you as a father!"" Gu Yan and Zhao Yu replied in fierce unison.

Ling Tian staggered. His thinking was working awkwardly before he was interrupted by Zhao Yu and Gu Yan's words. He really couldn't understand what was going on? When did these charming and adorable disciples of his become so strange?

This did not make sense!

It was almost as if he was watching Lan Yin and Qing Sha claim that they would marry him! But it was because these last two female disciples of his were clearly little girls who were just growing and developing and did not quite understand the concept of love between men and women!

Noticing Ling Tian's state, Zhao Yu and Gu Yan couldn't help but be somewhat stunned to see Ling Tian like this for the first time. But they quickly grinned happily in anticipation as they thought it was the best opportunity to attack!

"If Master doesn't accept Yu'er, then Yu'er will live alone forever!"

"Master will have to get rid of Yan'er if he doesn't accept her either!"

Zhao Yu and Gu Yan smiled with anticipation and happiness as they began to become more emboldened and try to enter their Master's sealed heart. If they managed to pierce even a crack in Ling Tian's injured heart, then they would be almost at the end of their main goal!

Finally, Ling Tian began to regain his thoughts with the thousands of memories flowing non-stop. From fostering and raising Zhao Yu and Gu Yan so much, to teaching them everything like cultivation and knowledge, it all turned into a great feeling of watching them grow up with love and affection!

He raised them and watched them grow up!

"Yu'er. Yan'er."

Ling Tian gently stood up. The calmness in his mind gradually came and he looked at the two women who had both expectation and anticipation on their faces. His spirit sense detected many presences in the main hall of the place they were in, all gathered quietly without making much movement.

"You may be confused, but I am your Master. Besides, there are many more men out there that you have not met. There might even be better men than your Master..."

"Of course not!"

"Not way!"

Zhao Yu and Gu Yan interrupted Ling Tian and shook their heads without hesitation.

"Master is the best man there is!"

"There is no man who can compare or at least be as great as Master!"

Both women looked adoringly at Ling Tian and exclaimed their thoughts. There seemed to be no lie in their words.

"Besides, we know that bitc-... that woman hurt your heart, Master. But Yu'er is not like that! Master is the most important to Yu'er!"

"Yan'er is also not a bad woman and only cares about Master! Master, you know Yan'er very well!"

Zhao Yu and Gu Yan didn't seem to give up.

Ling Tian smiled bitterly inside when he saw the stubbornness and decisiveness in both women...

What would these two female disciples of his say when they found out that he had already even married?
