"As long as I can open the Gate of Heavenly Path, can I become a God-level Master?" Ling Feng couldn't help but ask.

Ao Yun didn't answer but laughed and said, "See? I told you, being my Young Master, you wouldn't be at a disadvantage. I was right, wasn't I?"

Ling Feng gritted his teeth and finally said helplessly, "Alright, let's do as you say. As long as you're happy! It seems like you've really taken a shine to me!"

Ao Yun neither agreed nor disagreed and said, "How to reopen the Gate of Heavenly Path, I'm not very clear, after all, Heavenly Dao is ever-changing."

"So you're just spouting a bunch of nonsense?" Ling Feng said with a displeased expression.

"What's the rush!" Ao Yun glared at Ling Feng and said, "Although I'm not clear on how to open the Gate of Heavenly Path, I do know that to open it, you need this!"

With that, Ao Yun pointed at Ling Feng's right hand.

Ling Feng spread out his right hand and was stunned, "You mean... the Mo Yu Sword?"

"The Mo Yu Sword is the sword shadow left by the Xuanyuan Sword on Earth, and it likely hides the secret to opening the Gate of Heavenly Path!" Ao Yun said indifferently, "As long as you awaken the Mo Yu Sword, I believe you will find the answer!"

Awaken the Mo Yu Sword! Ling Feng gently touched the Sword Scar on his right hand and couldn't help but sigh. It seemed it was time to search for meteorites and other energy stones to awaken the Mo Yu Sword.

At noon, Liu Tingyu finished revising her thesis and returned home.

When she saw Ao Yun, she paused, "Ling Feng, this is...?"

"This is Ao Yun, someone I brought back from Miao Territory. From now on, he will live with us," Ling Feng glanced at Ao Yun and said.

Liu Tingyu greeted Ao Yun politely. Although she was somewhat puzzled, she did not show it. Since Ling Feng had made a decision, she had no choice but to go along with it.

Ao Yun sized up Liu Tingyu, his eyes flashing with surprise.

"What a beautiful woman indeed!" Ao Yun nodded and said, "Invaluable indeed!"

Ling Feng frowned, invaluable? He was about to ask when Ao Yun stood up, "I, an old man, shouldn't disturb you two. I'll go have something to eat first!"

"Grandfather Ao Yun, let's go together!" Liu Tingyu said.

Ao Yun laughed heartily, "No thanks, I don't want to be a third wheel, otherwise Ling Feng might get unhappy, haha!"

Saying so, Ao Yun gracefully turned and left.

Liu Tingyu frowned, "Ling Feng, who exactly is Ao Yun? Why do I get such a strange feeling around him?"

"What kind of strange feeling?"

"When I first saw him, I felt my heart thump suddenly and then it returned to normal," Liu Tingyu frowned, "I think he's not simple. Who is he really?"

Ling Feng said, "He's a hermit from Miao Territory. He helped me a lot during this mission, so at his request, I brought him out to temporarily stay with us."

"I see!" Liu Tingyu breathed a sigh of relief. "Since he helped you so much, we mustn't neglect him. Next time I see him, I'll make sure to thank him properly!"

Ling Feng gently wrapped his arm around Liu Tingyu's waist and smiled, "My Ting Yu is the best! Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet, I just finished my thesis, and last night exhausted me!" Ting Yu rubbed her brows and said, "I want some porridge!"

Ling Feng rolled up his sleeves, "Just sit tight, I'll go make some for you right now!"

With that, Ling Feng entered the kitchen, and soon there were clanging sounds coming from there.

Meanwhile, Ao Yun, who had left the Ling Family, stood beneath a tall building, looking up at the Ling Family's floors with a slight smile on his lips, "Interesting, really interesting, to actually meet the Descendant of the Phoenix Blood. Without the Nirvana Pill, I fear she won't last five years, no wonder Ling Feng has been trying to get the Nine Nether Blood Lotus, all for this girl—it really is all for love!"

"But that's good, at least it motivates him to grow quicker, to open the Gate of Heavenly Path sooner!" Ao Yun turned and left, "This world still hides too many dangers, if his growth isn't fast enough, then he might truly be in danger!"

Half an hour later, the preserved egg and pork congee that Ting Yu loved was ready, accompanied by the cold dishes Ling Feng had prepared, which greatly enticed Ting Yu's appetite.

As they ate the porridge and side dishes, after finishing a bowl of congee, Ting Yu's face revealed a trace of blissful smile, "It's really tasty, I wish I could eat this every day!"

Ling Feng paused with his spoon, then smiled and said, "As long as you're willing, I'm willing to make porridge for you daily!"

Ting Yu licked her lips and said, "Just saying, eating it every day would get boring! We should change it up sometimes, right?"

Seeing Ting Yu's sparkling eyes, Ling Feng coughed guiltily twice, then said, "No problem, whatever flavor you want to switch to, I can make it for you!"

Ting Yu's lips curved into a slight smile, as she seemed to enjoy seeing Ling Feng a bit embarrassed just now.

"Hey, Ling Feng, can I discuss something with you?" Ting Yu suddenly said.

The change in topic was a bit sudden, Ling Feng blinked, "What is it?"

"Let's switch apartments," Ting Yu said.

Ling Feng was puzzled, "Why, I think it's quite nice here?"

"You!" Ting Yu tapped Ling Feng's forehead with her finger, "Are you really foolish or just pretending?"

Ling Feng was completely confused, "If you want to switch, then switch, it's not like your man doesn't have plenty of money! But I still feel more at home here!"

After all, this was where Ling Feng had grown up, and though the building was somewhat old, he was reluctant to leave.

Ting Yu rolled her eyes, "I knew it, you men are a bunch of guys who don't think things through! It's nice here, but it's just too close to Uncle Yun's home! If Sister Yun comes and goes frequently, what happens if it stirs up rumours, how would that affect Uncle Yun and Auntie Yun?"

A sudden shock went through Ling Feng's heart.

Looking at Ling Feng's expression, Yun Hanrui said, "I bet you still haven't thought about how to come clean with Uncle Yun, right?"

Ling Feng rubbed his forehead with some headache, "Yes, Uncle Yun treats me like his own nephew, he's like a father to me. Auntie Yun is the same, her love for me is no less than Uncle Yun's, but now… Sigh, I have a feeling, if I come clean, won't Uncle Yun kill me with a knife!"

"If you want to have it both ways, you have to face such dangers!" Ting Yu giggled, "But before you think of a perfect solution, I think we should move, to avoid letting the people around here notice. Everyone here is too familiar, if someone finds out, what will you have Uncle Yun and Auntie Yun face?"

Ling Feng nodded, speaking with gratitude, "Ting Yu, I owe you one, I... I hadn't thought about that at all!"

"There's no time to waste, after dinner let's go look at apartments!" Ting Yu said.
