Ling Tian finally opened his eyes after such a long time.
That layer of memories that were so blurry and he felt as if he was at the bottom of the water, made him somewhat helpless that he couldn't see them properly. He only felt that happiness, that hurt, that joy, that sadness in each one of them.
The darkness had loomed over him, but Ling Tian's consciousness only rested, as if he really didn't care and just wanted to see more of it...
Ling Tian's eyelids lifted and let his eyes show, however, everyone could tell that his eyes were somewhat dark, giving them the feeling that something was wrong. As if a sad and sorrowful feeling was coming out of his gaze.
But it wasn't long when Ling Tian blinked softly and her eyes finally shone, with that brightness and that charm they all knew. The earlier feeling disappeared and that sense of security and confidence from before returned once again.
"Master..." Lan Yin whispered as her small eyes were filled with tears. Qing Sha on the other side also squeezed Ling Tian's hand tightly.
"Hey..." Ling Tian spoke in a weak voice, trying to squeeze their hands as his hands were held by the two girls.
His body was completely weak and he had to exert a lot of effort to be able to move. He could not even feel a trace of spiritual energy that could flow in his body. This reminded him again of when he faced the first heavenly punishment and Mu Shen found him and brought him home, finally being almost in a crippled state while he and Mu Shuiruo took care of him.
"Finally waking up, you bastard..." Zhang Xinya whispered with a pout on her face as tears also fell from her eyes. Her temperament of a seductive queen had been replaced by a feeling of worry and anxiety for the man she loves seeing him in such a state for all this time.
Zhang Xinya quickly rushed over and hugged Ling Tian, letting the heavy emotions in her heart flow out. Lan Yin and Qing Sha also climbed onto the bed and snuggled next to Ling Tian gently.
Tang Wanying and Long Yuyin couldn't help themselves either and likewise tried to hug Ling Tian, seeking a part of him and trying to feel him. Mu Shuiruo had not stopped crying when she also rushed towards Ling Tian, competing with her sisters to be able to hug this man in bed.
Ling Tian felt an inexplicable sense of happiness, well-being and more deep feelings that he could not describe. This feeling that came from seeing these beloved women who cared about him, as well as the love and care they had for him, made Ling Tian aware that his life had really changed and had yet another important meaning in it.
The girls hugged him, letting out their tears as their hearts poured out all the pain and worry they had towards Ling Tian.
* Purr*
Little white fox's purr was heard as it quickly cuddled into his neck area, wagging its long fluffy tail and getting attached to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian watched Yun Mengxin who was standing beside the bed, watching him with that unique gaze and with her eyes trying to keep from shedding the tears that in the end could not be contained.
The feelings deep inside Yun Mengxin somehow reached Ling Tian, making him feel everything that overwhelmed her.
Ling Tian raised his arm with difficulty, stretching it out and opening his hand towards Yun Mengxin. Their hearts were resounding at the same time and they finally held hands.
Yun Mengxin could not bear it any longer and also threw herself towards Ling Tian, also making space for herself between her sisters and feeling Ling Tian's unique warmth. The Queen, the Ice Goddess also could not help but show the inner sanctum of her heart.
Feelings poured out and a thick layer of love and happiness could be felt in the room.
The 7 girls hugged and cuddled around Ling Tian, wanting to feel his body as they soothed their hearts and happiness grew steadily. The little white fox also snuggled into Ling Tian.
Ling Tian let out a smile of happiness and tranquility. Truly this great and unique feeling was the best.
After a while, several Spirit Senses scanned the room and the girls reacted to this.
"Looks like my two mothers-in-law are also impatient." Ling Tian let out a small laugh as he realized that Tang Zhi and Zhang Ruoyan were already in the house as well, along with everyone else.
Women moved reluctantly, some of them with an obvious pout at being interrupted.
Ling Tian made a great effort and with the help of Long Yuyin and Tang Wanying, he got out of bed and left the room. This weakness had Ling Tian helpless, but he knew that he would again need time to recover and, above all, a way to get his energy flowing in his body again.
""Little Tian!""
The door to the room opened and both Zhang Ruoyan and Tang Zhi were happily pleased to see Ling Tian awake.
On the side, Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian were also smiling at the sight of Ling Tian. Tang Wei, Zhang Chao, Yun Dong and Long Cheng who hurried over were also happy to see that Ling Tian had finally regained consciousness. Many days were worried about Ling Tian's condition.
Even Shan Qingwu was also there, stabilizing her slightly agitated breathing as she had rushed over.
"Hey." Ling Tian smiled at everyone as he was helped to sit on one of the furniture in the house's living room.
"Brother, are you alright now?" Tang Jingtian asked as everyone looked for a place and sat down, watching Ling Tian closely and realizing his current state.
"Mhn, this is a period of weakness and I will need some time to recover. Little Shuiruo and Brother Shen will remember that this is almost the same situation when I woke up back then." Ling Tian smiled and looked at both siblings whom he met after facing heavenly punishment.
Mu Shuiruo's sweet heart squeezed in pain as she remembered Ling Tian's state back then, finding it similar with the situation now. Even now, Ling Tian still had some wounds that were barely concealed by his clothes and bandages, while his internal organs had yet to recover.
"But I think you were already much better the next day, weren't you?" Mu Shen recalled those days and asked.
Ling Tian shook his head and said, "It was because I was a little desperate and came across some enlightenment, so the energy locked up in my body was released and I recovered quickly. Now it seems I need something more than that..." Ling Tian checked his body with his weak Spirit Sense and indeed, he found no trace of immortal essence in his meridians. His Sea of Consciousness seemed inaccessible while his Dantian was cracked...
If it was before, Ling Tian felt that he would worry a lot about this, but now, he only saw it and felt no despair at all, as if this was nothing to him and just a passing thing. He just took a look at his body and would check it later, as he found something else on it. For now he would enjoy being alive with these new feelings in his being.
However, everyone could tell that Ling Tian's body really didn't have any trace of energy, as if he was a mere mortal who hasn't even cultivated, which led everyone to worry.
"I'll be fine, I'm glad that seeing you all fine and healthy, so you shouldn't be dismayed." Ling Tian smiled and patted the little heads of Qing Sha and Lan Yin who clung to him and sat by his sides.
Both girls smiled sweetly as they snuggled more into Ling Tian, smiling happily as they felt Ling Tian's hands caress their heads.
Ling Tian also looked at Shan Qingwu and his gaze went to the part of her abdomen, where there was a hole before before because she had covered him and he healed her by giving her the other drop of the Essence of Dawn and Life.
Shan Qingwu blushed and her heart raced. She also remembered that moment and blushed more. But her heart somehow felt happy to see that Ling Tian had helped her by giving her such important medicine.
They all saw this and somehow the worry about Ling Tian's condition lessened. They knew Ling Tian would have his ways to recover and he didn't want to worry them too.
"Looks like I was unconscious for a long time, doesn't it?" Ling Tian asked with a slight smile.
"Yes, more than two weeks." Long Cheng affirmed before everyone else and added, "But despite everything, the world has been quiet and the peace finally came that we had hoped for. As City Lord I thank you on behalf of all the citizens for bringing us this longed-for peace."
Long Cheng clenched his fists together as he bowed to Ling Tian. As the City Lord, his duty to fight against the demonic beasts had come to an end, so it was only natural to thank Ling Tian.
As this young man's father-in-law, Long Cheng could not help but be prouder and smile splendidly.
Ling Tian nodded quietly with a gentle smile.
But this slight action did not go unnoticed by his five fiancées. They noticed that Ling Tian's temperament seemed to have subtly changed.
"Little Tian." Tang Zhi looked at Ling Tian before asking, "Looks like you have a special identity in your world..."
Zhang Ruoyan also looked intently at Ling Tian, as well as everyone else.
Both mothers were very perceptive and very intelligent, so the fights against those immortal cultivators and everything they said could be heard perfectly by them, especially the direction with which they addressed Ling Tian. Even when Ling Tian arrived on the battlefield and fought alone against all of them, they could tell that Ling Tian seemed to be hiding many secrets, such as the simple fact that he could stand alone against all the immortal cultivators when previously the others could barely hold their own, even with the help of those other powerful youths.
That was why Tang Zhi had a hesitation about whether to ask about Ling Tian's identity. Although she wouldn't mind if this was something bad, they knew Ling Tian and knew that he was a good person.
Ling Tian's expression was calm as water and did not change a bit. His gaze moved to Tang Zhi and he always had that calm smile.
But before he could say anything, everyone could feel several people approaching the house. And just because they consciously let out their energies to be noticed they wouldn't be able to notice them.
"It seems that they have arrived..." Ling Tian spoke in a low voice which made everyone aware that he knew who those people outside the house were, "Let them pass."
Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian moved quickly to open the door for the new guests.
Seconds later, several people came in.
They were all surprised when they saw that they were the young people with a high cultivation base who appeared and helped them then as well. Four men and one woman.
Ling Tian stood up with some effort. His strength was slowly recovering, so he could now stand for a few seconds without support.
Hao Zhentian, Ying Chen, Shin Wei and Sun Xiang, looked directly at Ling Tian. Xuanyuan Ling had also come and stood behind those four young men, similarly watching Ling Tian.
Hao Zhentian, who gave everyone the impression that he seemed to be the leader, came forward a few steps and stood face to face in front of Ling Tian. The seriousness in his gaze could be felt throughout the living room.
Ling Tian also did not shrink back and returned the gaze; it was an indifferent gaze that did not contain any hint of fear in facing this young man who could easily kill him when he had no strength at all.
The atmosphere became tense but no one said anything. The women just watched without doing anything, since they already understood what was happening.
The balance of pressure emitted between Ling Tian and Hao Zhentian quickly inclined in Ling Tian's favor when his superiority stood out, announcing that Ling Tian was the winner of this battle with looks.
So, when most did not understand what was going on, the corner of Ling Tian's mouth lifted up, forming a faint smile as he looked at Hao Zhentian.
"Smelly brat..."
