The Way of The Dao

Chapter 371 I Know Your Father

?"You want to ask me something, don't you?"

When this young man heard Ling Tian, he got completely serious.

Yes!

In fact, there were many things he wanted to ask him.

Why did he save his mother? Why did he save them both? Who was he really?

When he arrived here and once his mother was safe, he learned that he was in another world.

His mother had told him that there were different worlds on different planes, so he was not very surprised!

Also, he noticed for the first time some strange beasts when he was flying a little far from Star City.

Long Cheng, the City Lord had explained to him that long ago, this world was full of demonic beasts and they had to fight against all of them to defend their home.

He was surprised and continued to learn more about these things.

The level of cultivation of the people in Star City was at the Chi Gathering Stage and, except for the people who seem to be related to the young man in front of him, it seems that they will not be able to advance to the State of the Foundation Establishment.

The young man had also been stunned and amazed to see all these beautiful women before he left for Star City a few days ago.

The beauty of each of these women was so shocking and transcendent!

Not even the queens or recognized beauties of his other world are as beautiful as these women! They really were the definition of maidens! Goddesses!

And not only that, their level of cultivation was much higher than his!

State of the Nascent Soul?!

Body Condensation?!

He wondered about their level of cultivation, as his intuition told him that these girls were very strong and could kill him in one move.

Even that pretty little girl who looked a little over 10 years old had a much higher level of cultivation than he did!

Who were these amazing people who could have such a high level of cultivation on a lower plane than the Cultivation World or the Immortal World?

Besides, one of them who seemed to be a Master Alchemist gave him medicine pills so that he could recover from all his wounds.

And when he learned that these women were the future wives of the man in front of him, he was even more shocked.

But, now, he only had one question on his mind.

What did Ling Tian mean when he said that he looked like his father?

Besides, when he learned that his name was Ling Tian, he frowned because according to his mother, there was a very powerful being who had the same name and who was from her world too; someone who was like a family. But this man in front of him seemed to be almost his own age, just a little more mature and calm.

But what mattered most to him was to know what he meant about his father.

His mother had told him that he came from a very powerful world and that his father was such a powerful being too, just below of some amazing individuals, but still, he was so powerful and strong.

Although his mother had told him many times about his father and more, he still felt some hatred against his father because he never looked for them, even though his mother explained to him that his father should think that she was dead and not add that there were thousands of worlds and dimensions in the universe, which would take him an eternity if he looked in every place. Although his father would anyway if he knew his mother was alive.

Ling Tian looked at this young man in front of him and evoked a funny smile at the thought of someone from his world.

"I know your father, Chu Kang."

This phrase was like thunder in the young man's mind!

That was his father's name that his mother had told him!

"How do you know his name?!"

The young man shouted in disbelief and shock, drawing the girls' attention to them.

Ling Tian made a calm gesture, telling him to calm down.

"Because I am his best friend, his sworn brother." Ling Tian responded calmly, looking into the young man's incredulous eyes.

"Impossible!" The young man yelled in shock before continuing, "My mother had told me that my father's best friend and sworn brother was one of those powerful beings in the Immortal World! The most powerful Supreme in the world!"

He could not believe that Ling Tian was that kind of powerful being.

According to his thoughts, this type of Supreme Being should be something bigger and, above all, should have an unfathomable and powerful force.

Ling Tian was not even an Immortal!

His level of cultivation could at most be in the State of the Nascent Soul or Body Condensation!

The Supreme existence was the pinnacle of immortal cultivation! Someone standing on top of the Immortal World!

Besides the fact that Ling Tian looked like someone his age, how could he be one of those Supremes?

The women paid attention to the conversation they were both having, laughing inside because Ling Tian really was a Supreme!.

The most powerful Supreme?

Ling Tian sensed that this young man was exaggerating before reaching out and pointing to the young man's forehead.

What are you trying to do?

The young man wanted to step back, but he couldn't move even a little bit.

* Swoosh! *

A slight energy entered his mind in the form of images and memories.

The young man was astonished to see all these memories.

They were some memories of Ling Tian!

In those images and memories, he saw his mother next to a man who looked very much like him!

This man looked about 25 years old, a little older than Ling Tian, who was about 20-23 years old in appearance.

His father!

That man was his father!

His mother was standing next to him too!

Although his mother was no different than an old woman in appearance before, he remembered that when he was very young his mother still had some beauty!

He recognized her instantly!

His mother and father!

Besides, it seemed that he really had more mothers that he could see together with his biological mother...

As if a horrible, powerful fear and dread took hold of his body, he stood stiffly for a few moments before putting his fists together and bowing to Ling Tian and saying, "I have seen Supreme Lord! Forgive this Junior's disrespect!"

A fear deep in his instincts was formed.

This man in front of him was the legendary Supreme!

Those memories and images he saw, he also saw Ling Tian with his father!

And if it relates to his name, then it all makes sense!

One of the Supremes of the Immortal World!

Someone who seemed to be his age was already somewhat so unexpected...

Although he did not know why this amazing being was on a lower plane and his cultivation was only a few levels higher than he was, he understood that Ling Tian really was his father's sworn brother.

Ling Tian had an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

That kind of fear and terror was mostly displayed when people learned his identity. Respect and fear were ingrained in the instincts of meeting a Supreme.

"Calm down, I'm not going to do anything bad to you." Ling Tian sighed, trying to calm his inner laughter: "Now can you tell me your name?"

The young man was stunned for a few seconds before quickly replying, "This Junior's name is Chu Feng!"

The fear in his body gradually went away as he heard Ling Tian say he would not do anything to him. It was as if his voice was magical and calmed the feeling. However, he still could not help but feel shock, fear and adoration for Ling Tian.

Chu Feng?

Ling Tian raised his eyebrows at this and then nodded.

"It seems that Jiu Ming gave you your father's last name..." Ling Tian commented, making Chu Feng finally accept his identity.

Jiu Ming, that's his mother's name.

"Senior..."

"You can call me Uncle Ling."

Ling Tian waved his hand without worrying.

Chu Feng would come as if he were his nephew, as he is the son of his sworn brother.

Chu Feng nodded and once again cupped his fists and said, "I thank you once again for saving my mother! I will do anything to repay this debt with my life!"

Ling Tian smiled and said again the same phrase as several days ago: "You really do look like your father, someone who is willing to keep his promises."

Chu Feng's eyes radiated a strong spirit and determination, proving that it wasn't lies he was telling.

Chu Feng nodded and then respectfully asked, "Uncle Ling, may I ask why you are on a lower plane?"

He did not know why such a powerful being from the Immortal World would be in such a small world as this.

Ling Tian forced a bitter smile before replying, "By chance of fate, I fell into this lower plane due to an unfortunate encounter I had. But now I am slowly recovering as I search for the way back to the Immortal World." He said nothing more.

However, Chu Feng was surprised within himself.

An unfortunate encounter?

Even a Supreme can fall at any moment!

Although Ling Tian had said nothing else, Chu Feng thought it was because of a horrible battle.

Could there be anyone more powerful than Ling Tian?

According to his mother, Ling Tian was the Supreme who was ranked number one in the Immortal World, stronger than the other Supremes!

Ling Tian looked at Chu Feng for a long time before he sighed and shook his head with a little chuckle.

'Brother, we never thought that Jiu Ming would still be alive and that she even gave birth to a son for you... it is the blessing of heaven that your wife was still alive...'

Ling Tian recalled scenes from several years ago, before he faced destiny.

Chu Kang, his best man friend and sworn brother, is one of the people who supported him from the beginning and was one of his pillars of support and family, treating him like a true brother as he struggled to increase his cultivation.

20 years or so before he went to Samsara Bridge and was ambushed, Chu Kang and his wives had suffered an accident in a place of the Immortal World when they were traveling, enjoying wonderful places of the world.

It seemed that space was disappearing while storms of the void were forming in the place.

Chu Kang had been trapped while rescuing his wives, sacrificing himself without hesitation. He was trapped in a strange domain, with no possibility of escape.

His wives did not abandon him and did everything possible to get him out as well. Jiu Ming, who was the strongest wife of all, made a move and managed to exchange places with Chu Kang, making it possible for the latter to get out.

However, Chu Kang didn't want Jiu Ming to do that, but had no choice when dominance had trapped his wife.

Some of the other wives had contacted him, hoping that Ling Tian could help them.

Although Chu Kang was only one level below him, the difference between the Supreme realm and the previous one was immeasurable.

When Ling Tian instantly received this communication through a communication device, he quickly rushed to where they were, breaking through the space once with all his power in his path and shortening the time.

Unfortunately, the place was too far away that when Ling Tian arrived, space collapsed and the place was destroyed, being lost in the void as it left the Immortal World.

Jiu Ming had forced Chu Kang out of space when she hit him with her own domain, sacrificing herself for him and her sisters so that they would not be trapped as well.

Ling Tian tried to enter the collapsed space to retrieve Jiu Ming, but failed when a powerful strange current completely trapped Jiu Ming, disappearing within seconds while traces of blood remained in space.

Chu Kang seemed to lose his life when he observed how Jiu Ming's body disappeared and was swallowed by the unknown void. His eyes became empty, without light and soul while his forces had disappeared, falling to his knees as he stared unfocused at the place where Jiu Ming had been a few moments before.

His other wives also cried deeply for her. They were all sisters because they were wives of the same man.

Ling Tian was also wounded but the wound to the spirit and soul of seeing his sister-in-law die was stronger, leaving him stunned as well.

They were all family to him!

After that unfortunate tragedy, Chu Kang locked himself up for a while alone. Losing one of his beloved wives was a hard blow and completely overwhelming, falling into despair, guilt and sadness.

Ling Tian went to visit him several times, trying to let him know that they all deeply felt that loss.

His best woman friend, his sworn sister, Ye Yingshi, also heard about Chu Kang and visited him several times as well.

It took many years for Chu Kang to recover a little, but, with the support of his other wives, he managed to get back on his feet and move on.

However, Ling Tian and the others could see the trace of lament and sadness in those eyes and smile that Chu Kang tried to show so as not to worry them.

When Ling Tian received the invitation to go to the place that was said to lead to a higher world, Chu Kang and his wives had gone to live in a mortal city in the same state, trying to change their minds and recover by experiencing a different lifestyle according to Ling Tian's advice.

Ling Tian had left the information to Chu Kang and Ye Yingshi with his disciples about where he was going before he left his Immortal Mansion and headed for such a place, only to find himself ambushed and almost killed.

But who could have thought that Jiu Ming had not died and even given birth to Chu Kang's son?

If Chu Kang knew this, Ling Tian was sure that the shackles would break and he would be able to transcend...
