The Way of The Dao

"Have you created a sect?" Ling Tian asked in confusion and amazement.

"Yeah, Master." Lu Wuhu nodded with a smile.

"It's a sect that all of us created long after you left, Master!" Daihang Guan added cheerfully, even showing a slightly proud and happy expression.

Ling Tian was surprised to hear them. He never thought that these little brats so small and whiny would manage to create a sect!

The feeling of pride and happiness flooded Ling Tian's heart again as he realized more and more the growth and maturity of these people who were once very attached little children to him in the past.

"I would like to see this sect." Ling Tian said with a smile. He wanted to see the place they had created. Although according to them this sect was very small with few disciples, Ling Tian was under the impression that this was not the case.

"Sure, Master! I was going to head there, so we can continue to travel on the flying ship. It's equal to only a short time from here in flight." Lu Wuhu nodded to Ling Tian, indicating his plans. There was some sect business that would also require his handling, so he had to go.

"Any inconvenience?" Ling Tian looked at Xue Ning and the others. Although they were at the alchemy association, they were still in Yuan Le City and could enjoy walking around and seeing the place if they wished.

"I'll go with you, big brother!" Xue Ning replied with a smile without hesitation.

Shan Qingwu and Nalan Ziqing nodded as well. Needless to say, both Long Yuyin and Mu Shuiruo agreed.

"It's been a while since I've been to the sect to see my martial brothers, I hope they're putting their heart into it." Xuanyuan Haoyun commented excitedly.

"You should worry about yourself first, little brother~" Xuanyuan Ling commented with a faint smile, teasing her brother.

Both Xuanyuan siblings were also registered disciples of the sect, but mostly they weren't around. Instead, they spent more time with their Masters, practicing and living together.

"Vice President Daihang, may we make the announcement of the legendary pill?"

Suddenly, Elder Woo Chin's hesitant voice was heard. In his hands he held the jade bottle with the pill inside. His expression was no longer as splendid as before, but he was still excited.

Master Fengta also nodded at Elder Woo Chin's question. This pill would mark a historical event in the world, a profound mark in the annals of history! They were able to create the legendary Immortality Breaking Pill!

But seeing that Vice President Daihang Guan seemed to be more excited about the matter of reuniting with his Master, both old men cautiously asked.

"Ah? Yes, of course! I'll bother you with this." Daihang Guan was briefly stunned before he clenched his fists together and respectfully requested them to take care of the matter.

"It's no trouble at all, Vice President!" Elder Woo Chin shook his head.

"Besides, this would not have been possible thanks to you and Elder Lu forging ahead and not giving up. Clearly you guys were responsible for creating this feat!" Master Fengta commented happily, his gaze falling on Daihang Guan and Lu Wuhu; he even cautiously glanced at Ling Tian as well, knowing about his identity and acknowledging his involvement at the last moment.

"It's alright! I thank you!" Daihang Guan smiled gratefully, but still his expression was calm with the pill related.

"Besides, the President will be elated when he hears about this!" Elder Woo Chin commented with a beaming glow on his face.

"I will ask you to inform the President that I will not be able to attend the meeting we have scheduled these days. I will personally go and get the medicinal materials from other places for my Master." Daihang Guan asked one last favor of Elder Woo Chin.

"Of course! I will explain a little about the situation to him, Vice President Daihang! Once again thank you for your hard work!"

Elder Woo Chin cupped his fists as did Master Fengta, thanking Daihang Guan for his effort and once again remembering that without him it would not be possible to have accomplished such a feat.

Both old men immediately retreated at once, running without stopping with jubilant expressions.

"Master, I will go with Wenwen to finish some business and then go to search for the medicinal materials in some places I had planned to go earlier. So I hope that also Mistress can wait for me to work and learn together!"

Daihang Guan said to Ling Tian and immediately looked at Mu Shuiruo speaking respectfully to her.

"That's good! I also hope to learn a lot from you!" Mu Shuiruo replied cheerfully.

"I remind you to take it easy." Ling Tian let out a defeated sigh as he saw the obvious worry in Daihang Guan's expression, but the warmth in his heart couldn't help but feel grateful continuously.

"Understood, Master!" Daihang Guan replied with a smile, but his expression and gaze filled with obvious worry betrayed him.

Daihang Guan hugged Ling Tian once again, feeling happy to see that his beloved Master was back, behaving like a little boy again. The happiness on his face could not be hidden. But although Daihang Guan was very happy and wanted to spend time with Ling Tian asking what he had done, the worry of his Master's condition lingered in him.

So, Daihang Guan and Yi Jingwen said goodbye once more, again thanking Ling Tian endlessly before leaving. Yi Jingwen's face was flushed, but this time, there was an indelible single bright smile on her face radiating joy as her small hand was intertwined with Daihang Guan's hand.

Ling Tian smiled slightly as he watched the two of them leave, feeling happy in his heart for his disciple.

"Then let's go, little Wuhu. Show me what all of you have accomplished after all this time."

Ling Tian looked at Lu Wuhu with an expectant smile.

"Yes, Master!" Lu Wuhu nodded in like manner and quickly went to the courtyard to take out the flying artifact.

Ling Tian took the little hands of Long Yuyin and Mu Shuiruo and the three of them climbed into the flying ship, followed by Xue Ning and the others.

The guards watched in amazement as Lu Wuhu and the others left in the flying artifact, being filled with shock even as they saw that something wonderful had happened.

Soon after they left, there was an unprecedented commotion in the Alchemy Association, then spreading throughout Yuan Le City!

The flying ship flew through the clouds, flying away from Yuan Le City.

"This sect we created several years after you left, Master, especially when big brother Zhentian reached the Separation and Reunion realm."

At the navigation center, Lu Wuhu explained to Ling Tian what they had done. Everyone else was present as well, keeping silent and listening to Lu Wuhu.

"As we knew about the importance of Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei to you Master, we all agreed to create a small sect in which we could recruit people and, in exchange for many kinds of rewards we could ask members to search for clues related to the whereabouts of the two of them and, in that way we could expand the search and have a better chance of knowing something about Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei." Lu Wuhu explained in a nutshell the purpose of this sect.

Nalan Ziqing who was listening quietly as well, was surprised for a moment to hear Lu Wuhu. Her gaze fell on Ling Tian, realizing that it all showed the affection and importance he had for her two Masters at that time. Nalan Ziqing sank into her thoughts.

"Time passed and we all advanced in our cultivations, reaching the Great Ascension state and, without realizing it, the small sect that barely had a few dozen members when it started grew to hundreds of members, with everyone cultivating at ease and being happy with us, going on to become a real and well-known sect in the place." Lu Wuhu smiled a little proudly and laughed, remembering the past.

"You guys..." Ling Tian was speechless but with much gratitude in his heart towards all these disciples.

He had told them about Xi Fei and Ning Xiaoyi, confessing to them that he even loved them very much but unfortunately he lost them and could never find their whereabouts. That is why he had adopted them, so that they could help him look for them, but without realizing it, these children came to occupy a big part of his heart, becoming his little brothers and sisters, his beloved family.

For that reason, before leaving, because he had made a new resolution in his heart, thus breaking his mortal chains, he told them that it was no longer necessary for them to look for the two women and only concentrate on themselves, taking care of themselves and cultivating quietly until they met again.

But now Ling Tian saw that they never gave up their quest, thus forming a sect for this purpose.

Ling Tian was happy to confirm more and more of his disciples' growth and achievements. A sect is not easy to create, let alone maintain, especially in a land where most of the world powerhouses reside.

"That's it?"

Shan Qingwu was astonished as she pointed into the distance.

Towering great mountain peaks loomed into view, with beautiful clear clouds enveloping them, creating a unique and devastatingly beautiful landscape. A flash of a beautiful rainbow crossed the sea of clouds, adding charm and mystery to the place. There were even several presences that were quickly noticed, being young people flying on their flying swords crossing the mountains and the sea of clouds.

As the flying ship came closer, the Chi spirit suddenly became thicker and more abundant, feeling even the pores of the skin clearing and loosening some bottlenecks. Breathing even felt like being in a sacred spring of cultivation.

Soon several large and majestic buildings came into view, bringing a powerful and unique feeling. A sense of boundless majesty covered everyone's hearts.

"We have arrived to the Beyond Above The Heaven Sect!"

Lu Wuhu's voice spread softly but excitedly, wanting to show Ling Tian the wonder of the place.
