Chapter 47: Ch. 23 Part 1
YanZhi took hold of Xiao Ling’s hand when the got to his sanctuary while Yue run happily, they were five people waiting for them. When they saw YanZhi and Xiao Ling approached four cupped their hands happily and respectfully and greeted excitedly.
" Master, Mistress! " they were so excited to see their master after months since their master returned and the opportunity to get to meet Xiao Ling.
" Little wife these are my other four disciples..... Lin the second, Feng the third, Chang the fourth and finally Liu... Pay greetings to your Mistress " YanZhi introduced and said.... they all kowtowed to Xiao Ling. Lin was a burly looking young man and he seemed to be the eldest amongst all five including Yue, but since Yue’s cultivation was advanced over theirs she got the title of the eldest disciple. Feng and Chang have slim features and Feng seemed like he was the oldest after Lin and before Yue... Chang and Liu seemed to be the same age and the youngest of them all. Liu seemed to be the shy type she had her hand raised covering half of her enchanting face, they all looked very handsome and enchanting.
" Ah mistress is happy to be able to meet you all... Yue couldn’t stop talking about you all that I was dying to see you " Xiao Ling said with a smile and teased making Yue flustered and the others laughed...
" Since you all have advanced and formed your first core you’ll be coming down the mountain with us in the day and return in the evening just like Yue does.. until the house is built and you’ll all be living with us. You have new juniors who I’ll introduce them to you tomorrow... " They all smiled happily hearing YanZhi say they can also go down the mountain, Xiao Ling turned to look at the other younger man standing alone and looking anxious.
" Xiong Gong what about him? " Xiao Ling couldn’t help but ask.
" Master he is the tiger who took possession of one of the caves here and was also cultivating... he came out of seclusion the same day as us and he pleaded to meet you " Lin explained and both YanZhi and Xiao Ling nodded.
" wLWeren’t you a pair... I felt a pair a tiger and his mate tigress. " YanZhi watched him silently as if in deep thoughts, the young man hurriedly kowtowed.
" Answering to master, my mate wasn’t able to advance so she’s still in seclusion. I came to meet and worship master first, master please permit us to worship you as our master... master please we’ll do anything you say " he hit his head on the floor until it started bleeding making everyone surprised at his earnesty and his resolve but YanZhi still stared at him indifferently not saying anything.
