Chapter 807 Linghu Xuan - Kang Ming
"Can you sense his demon energy, Old Kang?"
Kang Ming, who was watching Gui Ya, was startled by that, and he turned to the owner of the voice. "I suspect that brat used a special artifact to hide his demon aura, and it can even prevent my detection ability. Can you sense it, Linghu Xuan?"
"No, I can't sense his demon power either, but the Sect Master couldn't have guessed wrong, so we must quickly find a way to uncover the truth." Kang Ming nodded in agreement with her. "Morever, that brat also planted something in Tao Ruirui's room, but Old Wen's formation array couldn't detect it."
"As I recall, that little girl came from a second-grade clan, right? So I thought her clan would be of no use to those heretics."
"You're wrong about that." Linghu Xuan replied by shaking her head. "Those heretics do need strong clans as their slaves, but they can still use second-grade and third-grade clans to carry out their plans."
"Do you know the reason that brat targeted Tao Ruirui?"
"I haven't asked her about that matter." Linghu Xuan then turned around. "Anyway, Tao Ruirui should be awake by now, so I'm going to see her to ask the truth."
"I'll come with you to question Tao Ruirui."

The two of them had arrived inside the room, and Tao Rui Rui looked at them in confusion, especially since she couldn't leave the room because Linghu Xuan had sealed the door. "What actually happened, Elder Kang and Elder Linghu? Why are you two locking me in this room?"
"Do you have any problems with Huang Ya?" Kang Ming asked without beating around the bush.
"Huang Ya?" Tao Ruirui was getting more and more confused. "I don't have any problems with him, and he came to me just to offer cooperation, but I refused him. However, I feel confused about everything, especially since Sect Master Tian decided to move my room without prior notice, so I think that guy had something to do with his decision, as he was the last person to see me."
"Huang Ya had planted something in your room to trap you, so the Sect Master ordered Old Wen to move your room." Linghu Xuan decided not to sugarcoat the matter with her, causing Tao Ruirui to frown. "However, you'd better refrain yourself from meeting him, as we suspect that he has something to do with the heretics of the Earth Cloud Realm."
"Those heretics?" Tao Ruirui was completely shocked by that.
Kang Ming then asked her. "What kind of cooperation does he want from you? Does he ask you to help him carry out their evil plans?"
Hearing that, Tao Ruirui felt in a dilemma about telling them the truth, as he was afraid that the two elders would punish her for her attitude toward Xiao Xiao.
Kang Ming immediately urged Tao Ruirui. "Quickly, tell us the truth, or we won't protect you from Huang Ya."
Tao Ruirui let out a soft breath before telling them. "Huang Ya knew that I was interested in Xiao Xiao, and he himself had an interest in her sister, but she kept blocking him from approaching Ling Xiya. That's why he came to me and asked me to cooperate with him, and he assured me that he could help me get her, but he hasn't told me how he's going to do that."
"Do you know about those two girls, Old Kang?"
"I know Ling Xiya, and I've met her at Chenyu's place before, but I don't know about Xiao Xiao." Kang Ming answered her as he nodded. "If this girl says that, that means she is also one of that brat's wives."
"Eh?" Linghu Xuan was surprised to hear that. "Who is the brat?"
"His name is Mo Chen, and he lives in a building near the Sect Master's private quarter with Ling Xiya and his two wives."
Linghu Xuan was even more surprised after listening to Kang Ming's answer, especially since no husbands and wives had ever joined their sect, but she now heard that Ling Yun had brought his three wives to join their sect.
Kang Ming then told her again. "Besides, there are three other women living in that building; one of them is Tian Yueling, and she is also Mo Chen's future wife."
Linghu Xuan almost fell over after she heard that, and she looked at Kang Ming in disbelief. "Are you kidding me? How could Old Huang be willing to hand over his beloved granddaughter to a man with three wives?"
"Mo Chen is Tian Huang's sole disciple, so you shouldn't be surprised by his decision."
Linghu Xuan sighed softly. "You are right; I shouldn't be surprised if their relationship was like that, but I didn't expect that Old Huang had already taken a disciple now. Back then, my nephew repeatedly came to him to learn blacksmithing from him, and he always rejected him with the reason that he had to wait for his master's approval to teach the techniques, but he has changed his mind now."
"All right, we don't need to talk about that brat anymore." Kang Ming then spoke to Tao Ruirui again. "I know you are only interested in women, but Xiao Xiao is Mo Chen's wife, and our sect's rules are clear that disciples must not snatch other people's partners, be they men or women. However, I will let this matter pass this time, but you should stay away from them, or I will punish you according to our rules."
Hearing that, Tao Ruirui bit her lower lip and nodded at Kang Ming, but she certainly had no intention of giving up so easily, and she still harbored the desire to get Xiao Xiao in her heart.
"You don't need to threaten her like that, Old Kang." Linghu Xuan then advised Tao Ruirui. "I don't care about your affairs with Xiao Xiao, but I hope you stay away from Huang Ya, and you should forget about his offer of cooperation. Otherwise, people will consider you as heretics; not only will you suffer the consequences, but your clan will also suffer."
"Thank you for your advice, Elder Linghu." Tao Ruirui sincerely replied to her, as she certainly didn't want to get involved with people like them, and she also didn't want to bring disaster to her clan.
After the two elders left to watch over Gui Ya again, Tao Ruirui laid on his bed while thinking of various ways to approach Xiao Xiao without alerting the people of the sect, as she didn't want to be punished by Kang Ming.

Late at night, Zhang Bing and the others decided to rest at the side of a forest, which was quite far from anywhere, especially since they had been walking and flying all day long, and they also had to fight the beasts that came their way.
"Phew! I'm totally exhausted!" Jiang Chen complained as he lay on the ground. "It would be best if we rested now, especially since we still have to continue our quite tiring journey tomorrow, and we will probably arrive in Song City late at night."
"Are you sure we will be able to arrive in that city tomorrow, husband?" Tang Liqin asked him.
Jiang Chen immediately took out the map and pointed to their location. "We're halfway there now, and we'll arrive at the city tomorrow as long as there aren't any significant obstacles like today."
"That's good, then." Tang Liqin answered with a soft sigh. "This planet is truly vast compared to the Cultivator Realm, and we don't have to travel this far when we live there."
"Haha!" Yi Shi laughed and said to her. "Sister Liqing, the cultivator realm is just a pocket dimension, so you can't compare it to this planet. Even though this planet is too vast, I feel really happy with this place, especially since we can go on adventures and see many new things. Even the beasts we encountered before were much stronger than there, even though their levels were the same."
Unlike the other four, Zhang Bing and Yuan Meng only stayed in the cultivator realm for some time, and they never went far from the central forest. "You two are lucky because you lived there for a long time, so you have experienced many things. As for me, this planet was the place of my first adventure, so I am really excited to explore this planet."
"That's true." Yuan Meng nodded in agreement with her husband. "While we lived there, we never traveled to other places, and we only focused on training in the forest, so we were still blind about that place."
"In fact, the cultivator realm is not that interesting, especially since the distance from one place to another is too short for cultivators like us." Zhang Bing and Yuan Meng turned to Tang Yao. "Besides, we can use our clan's flying artifact, so it's very easy for us to travel around, and I've also seen the entire area there. That's why I'm also interested in this planet, and I want to explore the entire area of this planet. However, I have to cultivate harder before I can do it, especially since there are too many powerful cultivators and beats, or else I will die in their hands."
"Hey! Why are you talking like that?" Yi Shi asked as he hugged Tang Yao. "You are my wife, so I will not let you die, and I will definitely take you to explore this planet in the future."
