The ones who spoke were Yu Lieyan and Bing Ruoshui. The two of them didn't like each other from the very beginning.
One was naturally charming and cheerful, the other was naturally cold and unapproachable. One fire and one ice, they had completely different personalities and attributes.
They seemed to be natural enemies. Since the time at the Purple Sky Sect, they bickered all the time and even used their swords to determine life and death.
Later, they also fell in love with Ling Xiao. At that time, Ling Xiao was caught in an abyss of suffering!
Now that the two of them met again, it was filled with the smoke of war!
Yu Lieyan looked at Bing Ruoshui and said with some envy, "I didn't expect you to come to the Central Region. It seems that you're doing well. Your figure has become much fuller. It seems that Junior Brother has nourished you a lot!"
She didn't expect that Bing Ruoshui would be in Ling Xiao's backyard so early. It really surprised her.
Back then, she knew that Ling Xiao yearned for Yun Mengqi. Now that she didn't see Yun Mengqi, she felt puzzled.
However, the many beauties in front of her shocked her.
But when she thought of how outstanding Ling Xiao was, how could he lack beauties by his side?
She felt a strong sense of crisis. It was not easy to snatch such an outstanding man from the crowd!
Bing Ruoshui was already thin-skinned. When Yu Lieyan said it in front of everyone, a cold air instantly burst out from her body.
"I'm not as shameless as you!" Bing Ruoshui shouted.
If there weren't others present, she couldn't wait to fight 300 rounds with Yu Lieyan.
"Hehe, don't tell me you're still a virgin. I don't believe it!"
Yu Lieyan lightly slapped Bing Ruoshui's butt, like a pervert teasing a beautiful woman. It was a different kind of flavor to watch.
But before her hand could touch Bing Ruoshui, another hand slapped her hand to the side.
Yao Qingmin appeared beside Bing Ruoshui and said with her hands on her waist, "What are you doing? You dare to bully my Junior Sister? Are you tired of living?"
"Oh, so you have a helper. We also have Senior Sister. Who's afraid of who!" Yu Lieyan looked at Yao Qingmin seductively. At the same time, she pulled Wu Meiniang to her side.
Yao Qingmin coldly snorted and said, "Hmph, you two are like demons. I really don't know why Young Master likes you two. Later, let Sister Yun tell you two to pack up and leave!"
"I thought it was some amazing figure, but it turns out it's just a maid. Junior apprentice-brother won't listen to you. Haha, she's his senior apprentice-sister and wife. Hurry up and call her young mistress," laughed Yu Lieyan.
Yao Qingmin glanced up and down at Yu Lieyan's fiery body and said, "You think a seductress like you is worthy?"
She had always felt that her figure was the proudest, but in front of Yu Lieyan, she still felt a little inferior, which made her very unhappy.
"You're still as shameless as ever. With all these big sisters here, it's not your turn to be arrogant," said Bing Ruoshui coldly.
"Shamelessness isn't something you can say with your mouth. It's given to you by others. As a servant, you're shameless to jump out and speak!" Wu Meiniang also helped Yu Lieyan to ridicule Bing Ruoshui and Yao Qingmin.
"You insulted my senior apprentice-sister. I'll kill you!" Bing Ruoshui was impatient and took out her weapon to attack Wu Meiniang.
"Fine, fine … we'll see who's the real deal!" Wu Meiniang wasn't willing to be outdone.
For a moment, the four women became arrogant and domineering!
"That's enough. If you keep making noise, all of you get out!" a dignified voice shouted.
Cai Xiayue walked toward the four women with a cold face.
She had just broken through to the low-level Celestial Venerable level, and the aura she released was very frightening.
The four women were only Earthly Sovereign level, and they were suppressed to the point that they didn't dare utter a word.
Cai Xiayue said coldly, "I don't care what the relationship between you all was. If you all want to stay by Xiao's side, you'd better behave. Otherwise, I don't mind kicking you all out of here!"
Cai Xiayue was the oldest among the women, and her majesty was second only to Feng Xianyun. The main reason was that Feng Xianyun rarely cared about these things. In her heart, there was only Ling Xiao.
But Cai Xiayue was different. She also wholeheartedly belonged to Ling Xiao, but she knew that she couldn't help Ling Xiao for the time being. So, she could only share some of his daily troubles behind his back, such as letting his women get along with him obediently. Without pressure behind him, he could concentrate on doing great things!
"Sister Yue, they're new bullies!" Yao Qingmin came to Cai Xiayue's side and said coquettishly.
Cai Xiayue softened her tone and said, "Alright, we'll all be family in the future. Don't make a big fuss over such trivial matters. This will only make our husband hate you!"
She said this to Yao Qingmin, but she was also reminding Yu Lieyan and Wu Meiniang to behave themselves.
"This sister is right. I can't be bothered to argue with you." Yu Lieyan was very tactful. She knew that the woman in front of her was very powerful here, so she didn't dare to provoke her.
At this time, Ling Xiao pulled Feng Xianyun's hand and walked over, saying, "Yue 'er is right. In the future, we'll all be family. I don't want you all to fight tit for tat, especially Senior Sister Lie Yan and Senior Sister Ruoshui. Whatever disagreements you had before, it's all in the past. Now that we're in a foreign land, we must unite. What do you think?"
Ling Xiao looked at the women he had taken in. In addition to feeling proud, he was more worried that they would fight. If he couldn't even manage a small family, how could he manage the people of a city?
Therefore, Ling Xiao definitely didn't want his women to be jealous and make things unpleasant.
Bing Ruoshui said angrily, "I won't lower myself to her level!"
Yu Lieyan smiled tenderly, "No matter what, we're all martial sisters of the same sect. They won't make a big fuss!"
"That's good!"
Ling Xiao responded softly, then said to Bai Yuxi, "Yuxi, arrange their residences. They'll be staying here from now on."
With the addition of Yu Lieyan and Wu Meiniang, Ling Xiao's harem seemed to have become a lot stronger.
The main wife, Feng Xianyun, was unshakable, and the others were Cai Xiayue, Bai Yuxi, Ji Beixin, Bing Ruoshui, Yao Qingmin, Yu Lieyan, and Wu Meiniang. There were a total of eight beauties serving him, and if Yun Mengqi and Wei Daier, who hadn't returned yet, were included, the number would reach double digits.
Ling Xiao's original goal of wielding the power of the world and lying on the knees of beauties was getting closer and closer.
If other men saw that Ling Xiao had so many beauties, they would probably go crazy with envy!
Each of them was as beautiful as a flower, and each had their own merits. It was really dazzling. One couldn't help but sigh inwardly that Ling Xiao enjoyed the blessings of having multiple wives!
… ….
The days passed peacefully, and the Gu family and Sha Tian's forces didn't make much movement for the time being.
Ling Xiao didn't want to start a war for the time being, so he calmed his heart and entered a state of closed-door cultivation.
Now that his Unique Origin Returning Divine Technique had reached the sixth level of "Crystal Phase", he could cultivate the seventh level of "Soul Condensation" at any time; and the Ancient Emperor's Divine Technique had also reached the peak of the fifth transformation, he could also start cultivating the sixth transformation, "Consciousness Refinement".
As for the accumulation of spiritual energy, Ling Xiao didn't need to worry about it. The three foreign objects in his sea of consciousness were absorbing spiritual energy almost all the time. Even though only a small portion of it was fed back to his dantian, the amount of spiritual energy that was fed back was already difficult for others to reach even if they worked hard to cultivate.
Right now, he needed to first cultivate all the experience he had accumulated and all the cultivation methods that he had stagnated in the past.
The Unique Origin Returning Qi Soul Condensation realm could condense one's own soul and gradually strengthen it, finally reaching the next level, "Astral Projection" realm.
It sounded simple, but it wasn't that easy to do.
Every martial artist had a soul, and they could all be born in the sea of consciousness.
And this "Soul Condensation" didn't just refer to the condensation of a form, but to allow the soul to cultivate and become stronger like a real body, allowing it to have a certain fighting ability.
Once it reached the perfect realm, the soul could leave the body, like a real body, and fight with others, and the power would not be inferior to the strength of the real body!
The spiritual fluid in Ling Xiao's sea of consciousness was huge, and his soul power was also many times stronger than ordinary people. If he wanted to cultivate this level of Soul Condensation, it would have a double effect.
Ling Xiao, who was in the sea of consciousness, started to cultivate the profound skill that he was most familiar with.
In the beginning, every movement seemed stiff, and he couldn't hold on for too long before the soul power automatically dissipated.
Maintaining soul power consumed a lot of mental energy, like Ling Xiao, he could only hold on for a few days, and then he had to recover his mental energy before he could continue.
It could be seen that this level wasn't that easy to cultivate.
However, Ling Xiao realized that every time he recovered his mental energy, his mental energy also grew a little, which made him feel very surprised, but also very happy.
With this discovery, Ling Xiao used his soul to cultivate even more crazily.
As time passed, his soul form also became more and more solid, and his waving movements also became more and more skillful, and the consumption gradually decreased a lot.
After stabilizing this level, Ling Xiao began to cultivate the "Refinement of Consciousness" realm.
With Zhan Wang's memory inheritance, and the complete Ancient Emperor Divine Technique's mnemonic chant, he could directly enter the state of cultivation.
This change was mainly aimed at the defense of the sea of consciousness.
It allowed the spiritual fluid in the sea of consciousness to form layers of defense, wrapping around the sea of consciousness to prevent mental energy attacks.
Back in the Chaotic Abyss of War, Ling Xiao used mental energy to attack Zhan Wang, but it was a pity that it didn't have any effect. That was because Zhan Wang had already reached the peak of the "Refinement of Consciousness" transformation, and was no longer attacked by mental energy.
Although there were very few people who knew how to use mental power to attack nowadays, Ling Xiao knew from the Zhan Wangye's memories that there was an ancient human race called the 'Soul Race'. They were a group of humans who were most adept at using mental power to attack.
Back then, their existence could be said to have caused many powerhouses to be fearful.
Ling Xiao's cultivation of this transformation was to be prepared for any eventualities!
It was also during the days when Ling Xiao was in seclusion, a letter of challenge quietly arrived at Wind Cloud City!
