The Way of The Dao

Chapter 69 Helping Mu Shen With His Romantic Interest

Ling Tian had moved away from that area quickly. She couldn't keep track of him right now

He was sure that Long Yuyin would search within the star city area, so he would be sure of where he was staying for now.

Three days would not be enough to cover the entire star city and search houses one by one.

Ling Tian smiled slyly while he denied his head: 'Teach her? Mmm maybe I can't teach her the cultivation, but I could give her some simple mortal techniques that could help her increase one or two levels of power... she could become the strongest in this lower plane...'

Ling Tian observed the movements of Long Yuyin, who was desperate for his whereabouts.

Ling Tian decided to leave this matter to fate, so he didn't warm his head with that. He changed his temporary objective and decided to go around the star city one more time, maybe he could find something interesting...

Mmm?

Ling Tian noted Mu Shen's presence with his spiritual sense. He was standing in what appeared to be an area of an aristocratic family while he watched a beautiful woman who was talking to a young man. Mu Shen was standing several feet away from the couple.

Ling Tian raised his eyebrow when he learned more or less what was going on.

Approaching without a sound, Ling Tian tapped Mu Shen's shoulder, scaring him a bit.

"Ah! Brother Tian is you. You almost scared me to death..." Mu Shen breathed out when he realized it was Ling Tian standing next to him.

Ling Tian nodded as he turned to see the woman a few feet away from them: "Who is she? Your romantic interest? My sister-in-law?" he asked with a sly smile.

Mu Shen was embarrassed and nodded, "Haha, yes brother Tian. She's Hu Wenxin, the woman I'm in love with..."

Ling Tian took a look at the woman Mu Shen was in love with. Her appearance was truly enchanting as a beautiful and impressive woman, although her beauty was less than the five great beauties of the star city, she was still beautiful enough to be considered a true princess of the mortal world...

"She seems to be having trouble..." Ling Tian frowned when he watched the interaction of the two people. It seemed that the young man was pressing her to the point of wanting to grab her arm and pull her.

"Haah. That guy is Ji Kao, he is the young master of an aristocratic family. His martial arts power is in Heaven 1 star rank, so it wouldn't be hard to deal with him, the problem is his family..." Mu Shen clenched his fists very tightly as he watched the woman he loved being molested by the man.

Ling Tian looked up at Mu Shen with a somber face.

Paft!

Ling Tian pressed Mu Shen.

"Ouch! Brother what are you doing?!" Mu Shen cried out in pain when he covered his head from the blow he had received.

"What are you doing?!" Ling Tian spoke in an angry tone: "You see that the woman you love is being harassed and you don't dare to help her? If I were you, I'd go and save her from that bastard. I wouldn't mind facing him once or a thousand times, I would defend my woman! Even if I turn his whole family against me! Even if the whole world is against me! I won't let anyone take my loved ones away from me! Besides, if you're already facing the Ming family by protecting your sister, what's wrong with adding more to a simple aristocratic family?!"

Mu Shen opened his eyes when he heard what Ling Tian said.

Was he really a coward?

Why didn't he defend the woman he was in love with?

Was he really afraid of the family behind that person?

"You are right, Brother Tian... if I really love someone, I must do everything I can to protect her!" Mu Shen's aura changed, his determination could be felt.

Ling Tian smiled when he saw the determination in him: 'It seems he's not a coward after all...'

Mu Shen moved quickly to where those two were.

"Ji Kao, take your hands off Sister Wenxin!" Mu Shen spoke dominantly as he approached Hu Wenxin and removed the hand that held her thin arm. At once, he stood in front of Ji Kao, protecting Hu Wenxin.

"Big brother..." Hu Wenxin's eyes shone when she saw her savior.

"Huh? It is you, Mu Shen... What right do you have to interfere in my relationship with Wenxin? You dare to confront my Ji family?!" Ji Kao shouted fiercely as he was interrupted and realized who the bastard was that was bothering him.

"I do not care to face your family! You only use your power to oppress others!" Mu Shen did not step back and shouted as well.

"B-Big brother Shen, don't worry about me, I don't want to cause you trouble..." Hu Wenxin spoke quickly to Mu Shen, not wanting him to get into trouble.

"If I can't save the one I love, then I wouldn't be a reliable man." Mu Shen spoke in a clear, firm voice, making Hu Wenxin blush.

"Hmph! You dare to insult my family? Brother Qie, this guy wants a beating..." Ji Kao spoke to the side, trying to call someone.

Then another older boy, almost an adult, approached Ji Kao: "What's the matter little brother?"

This was Ji Qie, who was currently in King's rank and was one of the 5 most powerful men in the Ji family.

Ji Kao pointed out to Mu Shen, "Big brother, this guy is insulting our family and wants to take Hu Wenxin away from me."

"What!" Ji Qie became enraged and looked fiercely at Mu Shenhistorical

Mu Shen knew Ji Qie's level of martial arts, but even so, he did not back down

Plot

At the moment when Ji Qie was about to release his aura to terrorize Mu Shen and then strike him, a light thud sounded.

A hand grabbed Ji Qie's shoulder when a voice behind him was heard.

"Wouldn't it be better if the young people personally fixed their problems, rather than the adults meddling?"

Ling Tian was standing behind Ji Qie, with a smile that was not really a smile.

Ji Qie was slightly frightened when he did not feel this person coming.

Just as he was about to threaten this person to leave, a horrible pressure covered his body. Ji Qie was scared and his legs were shaking...

Ji Qie turned to see Ling Tian and somehow the smile he was showing frightened him.

Without saying more, Ji Qie turned around while saying to his brother: "Little brother, I have unfinished business in the family..." he did not finish and left, his voice was clearly shaking.

Ji Kao was surprised to see such a change in his brother, but thought that he really had a job in the family. He turned to see Mu Shen, who was still seeing him, inciting him to fight to show who was stronger.

Ji Kao did not hesitate when he ran away as well, he knew that he was not Mu Shen's opponent, so he gave up and ran.

Ling Tian smiled slightly as he saw them leave, true strength is everything...

He had already noticed Ji Qie's presence, so if he was going to interfere, Ling Tian wouldn't mind interfering too. If it was just a fight between Mu She and Ji Kao, he would only watch, but the other guy was King of 3 stars, so he decided to intervene.

Ling Tian turned to see Mu Shen and Hu Wenxin.

'It seems that there really is a way between the two of them...' he confirmed when he had seen the way Hu Wenxin saw Mu Shen.

"Mmm, so she's the woman you've told me so much about? She really is a beauty. Brother Shen, I'll go, I won't interrupt your time, hehe. See you later, sister-in-law." Ling Tian smiled playfully at the two of them.

Ling Tian left, leaving one Hu Wenxin blushing at hearing Mu Shen speak of her so much and being referred to as sister-in-law by Ling Tian, and also a slightly embarrassed Mu Shen.
