Ling Tian looked on with a curious and somewhat expectant expression at this change. It seems that the attitude and loyalty of these women as disciples to not be intimidated was amazing.

"These kids have really formed brave disciples... well, at least those three girls, hehe." Ling Tian whispered inwardly when he had deciphered a bit of the relationship of these female disciples, as well as that of the other peaks and places.

From all the information he had gathered and heard since he arrived, it seemed that the female disciples of these two peaks relatively close together were disciples of Gao Xue, Gao Yue and Zhen Bingluo. Ling Tian smiled curiously as he saw other very young and almost identical twin sisters in this place, as well as the other women who seemed to have similar features, so it was obvious that Gao Xue and Gao Yue were their Masters. While Hong Xian'er, Pang Wuya and the women who were there from the beginning were Zhen Bingluo's disciples, with Hong Xian'er even having a bit of her respective Master's look when she was serious.

"Young Master, there are two women who are at the Nascent Soul Early Stage and are not weak at all, so it will be a bit difficult..."

The man behind Heng Jiming whispered to him cautiously, frowning as he averted his gaze to the two women who seemed to be sisters, expelling slightly powerful auras. Although he was at the Nascent Soul Middle Stage, it would still be complicated to fight two opponents in the same realm.

Moreover, there were more than 50 women in the place, so they were at a numerical disadvantage.

Ling Tian heard this and a small sneer silently formed. He shook his head and didn't want to think anymore.

"Tsk! You're one level higher than them and you still can't? Then you're just a waste! My elder brother even killed an opponent who was ranked higher than him, and you tell me you can't against two weak women? You are useless!"

However, Heng Jiming angrily spat towards the man, humiliating him on the spot.

"I'm sorry, young master. This bodyguard is useless." The man simply lowered his head in humiliation. He gritted his teeth, but not daring to say another word.

"You really want to do this? My father is the first elder and very soon the leader of the sect, so one word from him could kick you out of here! Aren't you afraid of losing your cultivation resources, your home, as well as the protection of the sect?"

Heng Jiming spoke darkly as he saw the dozens of women staring at him coldly. But he was undeterred and put forward his backing strongly. He knew that these beautiful women would not dare to leave the sect for fear of being attacked outside, just as they would no longer have the resources to continue cultivating, let alone have the backing of the sect.

However, Heng Jiming frowned in stupefaction as he saw that there was no change of expression on either face.

"Ha? You think we haven't given up out of fear of being attacked or because we won't be able to obtain cultivation resources anymore? You really don't know our thoughts!"

Pang Wuya replied coldly, not being intimidated by Heng Jiming and added, "If we have endured all this time it is because we had thought that our Masters would return in the future and in that way we would all maintain the home we had all built for them. But now we know that home is where we are going and that our Masters would support us if we decided to leave this place! Also, we will not allow you to intimidate the new junior brother! He does not have to suffer for your actions! Once he joins this sect, he is another member of this huge family! So we all help and protect each other!"

"""Hmph!""""

Instantly, a mighty nod from all the women was heard as Pang Wuya finished speaking. They all clenched their spirit weapons in their hands, their auras rising to the peak.

Hong Xian'er, as well as Jia Chenxin and Jia Chenruo nodded strongly. Each and every one of them had realized in these past few days that they had to move on and not always rely on their Masters; they had to fight and forge their own paths!

They had already lost many martial brothers and sisters! So they couldn't stand still finally!

Ling Tian raised his eyebrow gently, but very surprised and speechless inside as he looked at the situation. He could clearly see that all of these women had low cultivation bases, and the higher ones were barely at the Nascent Soul stage, while most of them were at the Foundation Establishment and almost Golden Core Stages. And, observing a little more, especially when they were flowing their cultivation essences, Ling Tian could tell that their cultivation aptitudes and talents were average, and even very inferior.

However, the courage, bravery, resolve and steadfastness in their gazes were unparalleled, willing to die to defend and even protect him until the very end.

Ling Tian smiled expectantly. This was something that could not be seen anywhere, not even in the Immortal Realm. A very deep and unbreakable bond of companionship and fellowship.

"You..." Heng Jiming glared angrily at Pang Wuya, Hong Xian'er and all the other women, clenching his fist fiercely.

How come this group of fearful sheep were revealing themselves at this moment!

Weren't they really afraid of being left unprotected, as well as never getting cultivation resources again?

What was going through their heads?!

"If you really want to do this... then don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Heng Jiming gritted his teeth and said angrily. He raised his hand and pointed it at Pang Wuya and the other two women who seemed to be sisters, saying to his bodyguard, "I want you to incapacitate them but without killing them! I have to teach them a huge lesson on my bed so that they will learn!"

"But young master..."

"What didn't you hear me? Are you useless or what? If you can't do that then I will tell my father that you are trash and not worthy to be even a servant of my great Heng family!"

Heng Jiming angrily retorted to his bodyguard behind him who had tried to speak.

"What are you afraid of? My brothers will also help you so you can't complain! They are below your level! If you can't even win, then get out! I don't need trash in my family!" Heng Jiming finally added, with more fury and rage, "And once you're done with them, I want you to also capture Xian'er and those two twin sisters over there! I'll teach all of them not to meddle with me!"

"But big brother, Miss Xian'er, as well as those two twin women from the Sun and Moon Peak are the dual cultivation partners that your elder brother had chosen..."

"Shut up! Are you telling me what I can't do? If I order something you have no reason to question me!"

Heng Jiming shut his mouth after silencing one of his men and crossed his arms in front of his chest, like an emperor dictating his final order, waiting to see results with eyes full of fury and anger. He even forgot about Ling Tian and his probable relationship with Elder Lu Wuhu, showing how angry he was.

"Understood, young master." The bodyguard clenched his fists together helplessly as he walked forward, facing the women who were the biggest threat. A rough and huge sword appeared in his hand, as his spirit sense expanded and covered all the women. His cultivation essence flowed out powerfully. Not only was he facing three powerful opponents, but he was also outnumbered, so it was not an easy situation at all.

Heng Jiming's other subordinates looked at each other, looking confused and even a little regretful. They nodded in the end and pulled out their spiritual weapons, swallowing hard as they looked at the dozens of women who outnumbered him.

Although they had a powerful Nascent Soul stage cultivator, they were still outnumbered. Even a powerful cultivator could be killed by weaklings if he was outnumbered.

"Bastard..." Hong Xian'er whispered coldly, staring at Heng Jiming without allowing him to see fear or dread in her. A delicate and slender sword in her hand appeared, with an icy and unique appearance turning Hong Xian'er into a legendary cold fairy at this moment.

""We are not objects, let alone dual cultivation material!"" Jia Chenxin and Jia Chenruo spoke in unison, their tones cold and filled with fury. They clenched their spiritual weapons in their hands, raising their power to the maximum.

All the women nodded fiercely, clenching their spiritual weapons tighter in their hands as their cultivation essences flowed strongly to the point where they began to blend together and form a single powerful essence.

They curiously protected Ling Tian in the center, even forming a powerful front as they faced Heng Jiming and the others.

"What are you waiting for?" Heng Jiming exclaimed in despair, staring coldly at the scene.

The bodyguard and the other men nodded heavily before hesitantly moving and expelling their powerful auras.

"I think the time has finally come..." Pang Wuya whispered heavily as she faced the bodyguard, feeling a bit of suffocation and difficulty moving as she felt his powerful aura.

"But we will never surrender to them!" Hong Xian'er felt the tension of the moment in the moment and exclaimed loudly. Her hands clenched her sword tighter as she too tried to resist the pressure emitted by the enemy.

This moment had come quickly!

Although they knew that this moment would come, they couldn't help but feel sad to know that they would have to leave this place very soon... either by dying right now or escaping after winning.

Pang Wuya and the two sisters finally expelled their auras. Several glowing rings rose into the sky, rapidly enlarging and spreading. White pearls linked by several threads merged with these rings in the sky.

Space became thick from the powerful cultivation essences gathering together.

"Don't you know the difference between a Nascent Soul state cultivator and a cultivator below them?!"

The bodyguard sneered as he finally mobilized his spiritual energy, gathering it into his body as he watched the spiritual weapons in the sky. If there was a chance to avoid looking bad in front of his young master and avoid getting seriously injured, this was it!

"Y-young master!"

Suddenly, a voice in the distance was heard, momentarily stopping the moment.

Almost everyone turned to look, realizing that it seemed to be a servant of the sect.

"What's wrong?" Heng Jiming frowned in annoyance, looking at the servant who came running with all his might.

"Patriarch Heng immediately requests your presence!" The servant came over and kowtowed to Heng Jiming. His body was trembling with fear and exhaustion.

"My presence? What's wrong with my father?" Heng Jiming was momentarily stunned, his mind clearing for a moment. He could not help but glance at Ling Tian among the women as he remembered his fearful thoughts again.

"The patriarch has ordered me to have you return as soon as possible to the Main Hall along with your bodyguard! I even heard that he also sent for his eldest son!" The servant continued to reply firmly.

"My elder brother too? What's going on?"

Heng Jiming was silent for a few seconds before clenching his fist. He turned around and looked at Pang Wuya, Hong Xian'er and all the women before gritting his teeth full of helplessness.

"You've all been spared for now! But once I'm done with this matter I'll chat with my father! If you want to escape you can do so, but let's see how long you can escape before I capture you again! Haha!"

Heng Jiming laughed ridiculously at the end, leering at the bodies of all the women before retreating from the scene with all his men.
