The Way of The Dao

Chapter 523 From Another Cultivation World?

?"I hope little brother will excuse me for my imprudence earlier..."

A serious voice, but completely filled with respect, firmness, and even a bit of fear, came out of an old man's mouth as he bowed and clenched his fists together in front of Ling Tian.

"Grandfather..."

The other figure was a young man with handsome features and a noble and elegant bearing, who was currently showing an incredulous and confused expression as he watched the behavior of the other man, who was apparently his grandfather.

"Xiao'er, don't behave rudely! Greet him first." The old man continued with the same posture as before and only moved his mouth to say to the other young man.

Wang Xiao blinked in surprise this time, being confused for a moment to see the young man sitting at the table sipping a cup of tea with an indifferent expression.

"This Junior Wang pays respects to Senior brother." Wang Xiao was smart and did not hesitate any longer, clenching his fists together and bowing to Ling Tian in respect, as did the old man.

All this time, both of them had been in the sky without daring to escape, waiting for Ling Tian to be alone completely and appear.

* Ting~ *

? After a long time, only a faint sound of the cup being placed back on the table rang out. Ling Tian finally opened his eyes and looked at this pair who had not moved all this time.

"If you had dared more... you know what would have happened to you, don't you?" Ling Tian spoke indifferently towards the old man, scaring him slightly.

Ling Tian was aware of these two figures when they began to spy on him and the elders when they arrived. The old man had sneakily released his spirit sense, thinking that he might not notice, so when he wanted to look into the rooms where Xuanyuan Ling and Shin Wei were, Ling Tian finally prevented this old man from continuing to watch freely, enclosing him with his aura and ready to shoot in case this old man dared to disturb his disciples.

"I know! I hope little brother can forgive this old man's fault." The old man nodded and apologized again, as if he was a young man instead and Ling Tian was the adult.

Wang Xiao beside the old man did not say a word, but he always sneakily watched Ling Tian, wondering why his grandfather were so respectful and even a little fearful of this young man who seemed to be a cripple.

"Sit down." Ling Tian calmly took the cup of tea as he motioned for the old man to take a seat.

The old man nodded and quickly took a seat.

"Won't you sit down too?" Ling Tian looked with a small smirk at the young man who looked to be about 18 years old, who was still confused but still didn't dare to ask questions or show disdainful expressions as he bowed to another young man.

"Then this Junior will take a seat." Wang Xiao quickly took a seat carefully beside his grandfather.

The two looked intently at Ling Tian, who took another sip of his tea again before setting it down on the table and finally looking at them.

"You two don't belong in this little place." Ling Tian stared at the old man, keeping his gaze mainly on him and turning more shocked when he said, "A Peak Stage of the Great Ascension and an Early Stage of the Nascent Soul is not often found in a place where energy is very scarce..." His voice still had an indifferent tone, as if he really did not take into account the level of strength these two people had.

Thanks to the Sacred Heavenly Scriptures and his own experience, Ling Tian could almost perfectly see the level of the other people despite having a high cultivation base. Di Ji had also explained to him what she knew about the three territories of this continent, so it was easy to think that the territory he was currently in was low level, where there could barely be a few cultivators in the Nascent Soul and Body Condensation realm.

The Peace Firmament Region said it all; a place where there would hardly be many fights and disasters due to the level of the territory.

This time, Wang Xiao's eyes widened in shock as he saw that this young man could see his cultivation level perfectly!

The old man finally sighed lightly as he confirmed that indeed, this young man was a true expert as well, much stronger than him. Even though he appeared to be crippled, the old man thought that Ling Tian was pretending to be crippled.

Ling Tian looked to be between 20 and 23 years old, so it was undoubtedly still a shock that he was a Great Ascension expert as well.

"You're right, little brother. This old man's name is Feng Ye and I come from the Ye family in the Heaven realm..." Feng Ye clenched his fists together in greeting and then added, "And this is my grandson, Feng Xiao." He pointed to Wang Xiao at his side.

"Hadn't he said his name was Wang?" Ling Tian only raised his eyebrow slightly when he remembered that Wang Xiao had referred to himself Junior Wang. Not that it mattered much to him though, after all, it was normal to hide one's identity when traveling.

It also came to his attention that these two came from the strongest territory in this world, the Heaven Realm where the great experts who had reached the peak of cultivation presumably lived.

"I asked him to change his name when we came to this family." Feng Ye quickly replied and cautiously asked, "Dare I ask if little brother has any relation to this family?"

Feng Ye had witnessed that the Patriarch who attended him and the other Elders of this family addressed Ling Tian as the missing Young Master. But Feng Ye clearly didn't believe it, after all, how could a small family from a remote and barren place cultivate a mighty Great Ascension expert in just a few years? Aside from still being so young?

It was even curious that this young man in front of him did not have long hair like most young men, giving him a strange yet attractive touch at the same time. Even his grandson, Feng Xiao, had long hair at the moment.

Feng Ye even thought that this young man had been possessed by the soul of an ancient being that he returned to cultivate again, that being the reason why he felt that he really was a true expert. However, Feng Ye did not find any abnormalities with Ling Tian after observing him so closely. Only his temperament seemed to be completely different from every young man in his youth.

"What do you think?" Ling Tian smiled slightly.

"With all due respect, this old man doesn't think little brother can belong to this territory..." Feng Ye shook his head and asked curiously, "Could it be that you also belong to the Heaven Realm territory?"

Feng Ye had never heard of someone so young who was a great expert at the peak of the Great Ascension, besides those two fairies he encountered in the past and they also seemed to have an appearance of just over 20 years old if their faces weren't hidden by those veils!

"Neither of them." Ling Tian shook his head slightly.

"Then, could you be from the Sea Heart?" This time, Feng Xiao asked curiously, thinking that this person who seemed to be just slightly older than him had a cultivation just like his grandfather's.

"Neither." Ling Tian smiled bitterly and sighed.

"Could it be that..." Feng Ye only thought for a moment before showing a surprised expression.

Ling Tian raised his eyebrow as Feng Ye might have thought that he did not come from this world quickly.

"You are from another Cultivation World?!" Feng Ye exclaimed in surprise once he looked at Ling Tian in shock.
