The Heavenly Constellation Supreme?

Zhao Yu and Gu Yan's bodies became rigid the next moment, being quickly noticed by Ling Tian.

"Yu'er! Yan'er! What's wrong? Are you two fine?"

Ling Tian became worried and stopped hugging them. He quickly grabbed their wrists and checked their pulses looking for something wrong with their bodies. Could it be that there was still some of those shadows left on their bodies that he had missed?

"Nothing, Master."

"We're fine, Master..."

But Gu Yan and Zhao Yu shook their heads with a faint bitter smile. Their eyes seemed to have slightly lost their cheerful gleam from a few moments ago.

"Okay... by the way, how was it that you managed to break through the void and reach this lower plane? And how was it that Han Lushuo had found and attacked you?"

Ling Tian personally checked Gu Yan and Zhao Yu's states and sighed in relief to see that both of them were fine and there didn't seem to be anything wrong with their bodies or find traces of that shadow. But seeing their somewhat strange expressions, Ling Tian felt the atmosphere somewhat tense and strange and decided to change the subject as he remembered what had happened.

Zhao Yu's pupils shrank slightly and Gu Yan averted her gaze.

Ling Tian frowned as he noticed their expressions. It was as if they didn't want to answer what Ling Tian had asked them.

"We used the space-time technique that you had encountered on one of the worlds when you were traveling alone, Master." Zhao Yu didn't let Ling Tian wait long and answered with a look somewhat full of sorrow. Gu Yan also nodded beside her with some guilt.

They all remembered that Ling Tian had told them that they should never use that technique when they found it in his small pocket world, since it was incomplete and the result could be unfavorable for whoever used it. Moreover, it required large amounts of energy and power to carry it out, as well as a stable and safe environment both at the starting place and at the place on the other side.

Ling Tian was not very surprised by this result, as he had thought something like this was. There were not many ways to be able to leave the Immortal realm and descend to a lower plane. But despite this, Ling Tian's gaze couldn't help but become somewhat gloomy and angry. These women could have died in the process!

"You know you could have died?!" Ling Tian's voice became somewhat grave and heavy. He really didn't want these children to do dangerous things if it could be avoided!

"Yu'er is sorry, Master!"

"Yan'er knows it's wrong, Master!"

Zhao Yu and Gu Yan trembled with a little fear but mostly filled with nervousness when they saw Ling Tian's expression. They all knew that Ling Tian would almost never get angry or upset with them unless their lives were in danger or they did something very wrong.

But the longing and desperation to find their Master was growing stronger and stronger and they couldn't wait any longer...

Ling Tian sighed inwardly as he saw the nervous behaviors of both women. His expression softened and his tone of voice became soft again as his two hands landed on Gu Yan and Zhao Yu's heads and stroked them, saying, "I'm sorry. It's not that you all are wrong, I just don't want anything to happen to any of you. You all could continue cultivating without the need to do this to find me, sooner or later I would ascend again and Master would find you in time."

Ling Tian smiled lovingly, causing both the nerves in Zhao Yu and Gu Yan to disappear. Both women also smiled finally filled with happiness and even some shyness, as if they were filled with bliss at being pampered by Ling Tian in such a way.

"Master! It's just that we couldn't wait to see you! Besides, we felt that you couldn't die easily, so we didn't stand idly by! Yu'er missed you so much!" Zhao Yu shook her head and said with a longing and conviction in her eyes. Her tears threatened to form in her beautiful eyes again.

"Besides, Yan'er felt very guilty and felt that Yan'er should be the one to die in Master's place. Yan'er also didn't believe that Master had died and went out of her way to search for his whereabouts! Yan'er also missed you a lot, Master!"

This time, Gu Yan couldn't help but shed some tears as she felt Ling Tian's touch and kept apologizing to Ling Tian. The shadow of guilt and remorse had filled her heart all this time.

Ling Tian couldn't help but smile gratefully but shook his head and said to Gu Yan while looking into her eyes, "Yan'er, Master will never blame you. It wasn't your fault for what happened and it never will be. If anything, it is Master's fault for being trusting and not being strong enough to protect you properly." Ling Tian's hand lovingly and tenderly touched Gu Yan's soft and luscious cheek, blushing her all over.

Gu Yan's heart pounded uncontrollably. A warmth covered her whole body as she felt Ling Tian's touch on her cheek and saw his expression full of love and affection.

Gu Yan was a little more sensitive than Zhao Yu, so Ling Tian was used to this, although it had been a very long time since any situation like this had happened. It just seemed so strange to Ling Tian that these girls would let themselves go and behave for a long time like little girls...

Perhaps it was because of what they had been through, which led them both to let themselves be more sensitive than before.

Zhao Yu pouted a little when she saw Ling Tian's action on Gu Yan, especially when Ling Tian withdrew his hand over her own head.

"Of course not! Master is the most powerful in the entire Immortal realm! Even the other Supremes wouldn't be able to do anything to Master if not for Yan'er being there!"

Gu Yan shook her head as she placed her own hand on Ling Tian's hand on her cheek and exclaimed with firm conviction as she looked at Ling Tian. There didn't seem to be any exaggeration or lie in her words.

"Master is the strongest being in the whole world. Yu'er also agrees!" Zhao Yu also added to the fact that Gu Yan had mentioned.

Although Ling Tian is their Master, every one of them knew about his incredible strength! Even most of the other Supremes couldn't beat him in the past when they exchanged tips!

Ling Tian shook his head with a calm smile and said, "Despite that, it still resulted in this. Therefore, you don't have to think it was your fault or feel bad. Master wouldn't mind giving his life so that you can continue to live, Master only hoped that you would be well and become powerful beings and reach out to touch the heavens." His smile widened and a calm but full of life's vicissitudes look surprised both women.

But Zhao Yu and Gu Yan were startled to hear and look at his expression! Ling Tian seemed to have changed somewhat after all this time...

"But that technique was incomplete, even with all my power at that time I wouldn't be able to accomplish it completely and be sure that everything would turn out well. Besides, you would still need a skill or at least a trace of me to be able to break through the void and get right where I am..." Ling Tian frowned as he recalled the space-time technique he encountered in the past but was incomplete. Although he could tear space in a raw and direct way, he could barely do it once but with a sword and the space crack would be very unstable, very different from his current way of tearing space using only his cultivation force and spiritual energy.

Gu Yan's cheeks blushed and Zhao Yu lowered her gaze slightly as shyness and nervousness filled her heart.

Ling Tian raised his eyebrow as he noticed these changes in his female disciples but did not bother and just waited for them to respond. A slightly playful smile appeared on his face slyly as he thought about what all these disciples of his had done and were afraid to say.

"After searching for many traces and clues about whether Master was alive or dead, we obtained Senior Fang Hongjian's heavenly secrets." Zhao Yu finally said after a few seconds.

"The Heavenly Constellation Supreme?" Ling Tian was a little surprised when he remembered this individual.
