"What's up, Wanying?"
Ling Tian looked at Tang Wanying as he held her in his arms. He gently moved part of her hair covering her beautiful eyes with his fingers.
"Mmn." Tang Wanying shook her head with her face buried in Ling Tian's chest as she calmed down and said in a worried voice, "You haven't moved or opened your eyes for almost five days. We are all very worried about you." She leaned on his chest while his hands were wrapped warmly around her body.
Ling Tian looked at Tang Wanying with a small sense of guilt.
He knew that a total of 5 days had passed while he was checking his immortal essence, but somehow he omitted that women might worry about this even though he had warned Long Yuyin that he would be fine.
Although five days were not long for him, it was a long time for all of them, especially since they are just entering this new world of cultivation, where one could be behind closed doors for cultivation or healing for days, months and years. Therefore, they could not help but worry about him.
"I'm fine, Wanying. I just needed to observe my cultivation in depth." Ling Tian smiled lovingly as he saw the obvious concern in Tang Wanying.
He released his spiritual sense and saw that the other girls were in the living room. Ling Tian frowned a little when he noticed something.
"I'm so glad you're okay." Tang Wanying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Ling Tian was fine.
Ling Tian smiled tenderly at her.
He couldn't help but slowly lower his head and kiss her gently, while his arms wrapped around her lovingly.
Tang Wanying let herself be kissed happily by her beloved man as she lay wrapped in his strong, warm arms. She also opened her lips a little more to feel Ling Tian.
The kiss was tender and gentle, while both gave each other a tender and delicate love.
Ling Tian slowly moved away from her lips. Tang Wanying smiled softly, free of worry at last.
"Come on, the others will still be worried." Ling Tian spoke softly to her as he continued to look at her with his eyes full of love.
"Mn." Tang Wanying nodded with some reluctance because she felt warm and happy to be in his arms.
The two stood up and left the room together.
"Master!"
Lan Yin shouted excitedly at the sight of Ling Tian and quickly rushed towards him.
"Hey." Ling Tian smiled and hugged Lan Yin and carried her in his arms.
Lan Yin hugged him tightly as she coiled her arms around his neck.
The women immediately noticed Ling Tian when Lan Yin had shouted and ran towards him.
Mu Shuiruo had approached Ling Tian and hugged him with concern too.
Yun Mengxin, Zhang Xinya and Long Yuyin also approached Ling Tian.
Ling Tian noticed that everyone was looking worried when they saw him.
"Hehe, I'm fine. Sorry it took me so long, it's just that I was checking my cultivation." Ling Tian spoke quietly, completely soothing the hearts of all the girls.
"Are you really okay?" Long Yuyin still asked. She was the most worried of all.
"I'm fine, Yuyin." Ling Tian smiled at her and took her hand, "Don't worry, what happened to me is not your fault." He thought Long Yuyin might feel guilty that this happened after he had been intimate with her.
Long Yuyin smiled with relief as she squeezed her beloved man's hand more. The stone in her heart finally lifted.

"What happened that took you so long?" Zhang Xinya asked as she watched him. The other women watched him too.
Ling Tian smiled quietly while explaining, "I really don't know what is happening to my cultivation, but I can say that it is not bad at all. After checking my cultivation I found nothing wrong with it."
"But it's all right, isn't it?" Yun Mengxin asked.
"Um, you don't have to worry about it." Ling Tian smiled broadly, leaving no trace of doubt.
"We cultivators can spend a lot of time in such a state, even being like this for dozens of years while cultivating or being behind closed doors for healing..."
Ling Tian explained in a few words what could happen in the future to keep them informed that being isolated for a long time was normal for any cultivator. Especially when he noticed their worried looks and their cultivation.
He noticed that Long Yuyin and Mu Shuiruo did not advance in their cultivation, while Tang Wanying and Zhang Xinya somehow managed to catch up with them. Now all four of them are in the Third Stage of Chi Gathering.
Most likely, the feeling of worry prevented them from concentrating on cultivating properly.
Yun Mengxin was still in the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment. Lan Yin was still in the Seventh Stage of Chi Gathering.
Ling Tian frowned slightly and then asked Yun Mengxin, "How long have they been here?"
"Since three days ago." Yun Mengxin knew exactly what Ling Tian was asking her. She and he could even understand each other without the need to talk.
The other girls looked at Yun Mengxin and Ling Tian with confused eyes.
"Haaah. I don't like that you are being stalked..." Ling Tian sighed and then lowered Lan Yin from his arms and started walking, leaving the house.
"What happened, Sister Mengxin?" Long Yuyin asked as they watched Ling Tian leave the house.
"Our husband noticed several people outside the house, wanting to observe the place." Yun Mengxin responded while expanding her spiritual sense and noticing what was happening outside.
"Are there really people outside?" Mu Shuiruo asked, a bit surprised. She thought she had imagined that sometimes she saw some people a little close to the place.
Yun Mengxin nodded with a slight smile.
"So it's true." Tang Wanying spoke after what Yun Mengxin said.
All the women nodded, understanding what was happening.
Since three days ago, they began to notice some people passing near the Mu house, but since they were outside the Star City, it was normal for people to pass near the place if they went to the forest either to look for medicinal plants or to hunt the demon beasts.
Now that Ling Tian and Yun Mengxin affirmed to them that there were people outside, they confirmed that apparently there were some stalkers, lurking nearby and spying on them.
Each of them felt a sense of disgust that there were people harassing them and watching them even now. It seems that their move to this house was still known.
"The next time something like this happens and my cultivation is stronger, I will take care of those nasty guys myself." Zhang Xinya complained as she pouted, reminding herself of her current level of cultivation and that she didn't have much strength at this point.
The other women nodded in unison. Once their cultivation became more powerful, they would take over personally and teach a lesson to the people who are stalking them.
Now they could only trust Ling Tian, their future husband. However, each one of them felt sweetness in remembering what Ling Tian said before he left the house. They could really trust him for everything.
The girls looked out of a window, wanting to see what Ling Tian would do.
Yun Mengxin and Lan Yin released their spiritual sense and watched what was happening outside.
