Chapter 702 The Sky Cloud Realm
However, Ling Yun and the others did not expect that there was such a vast cold valley in the middle, especially since Tang Chen and Zhou Yu did not say anything about it, and the cold temperature was not a problem for them thanks to the barrier covering the Celestial Fortress and Yunlong Zuzhai.
*Bam*
Soon, the Celestial Fortress had landed perfectly, right in the middle of the cold valley. Unlike when they were on earth, it could not be hidden underground, and Xiao Yin immediately informed Ling Yun. [Master, all of you should be careful when leaving this place, and I detected the presence of several beasts in the Five God Realms in the area around this mountain range.]
"I understand." Ling Yun then floated into the air and surveyed the surrounding area. "We\'ve been in outer space for too long, so you guys can come out now, but all of you must always be alert."
"Sister Bing! Let\'s take a look at this valley!" Ling Ling said as she impatiently grabbed Lian Bing\'s hand, and she pulled her away from Yunlong Zuzhai.
Bing Xue and the former members of the Lotus Sect also looked excited, so they immediately flew after the two women. Once they landed there, they felt like they were at home, especially since it was almost no different from their former sect, but the temperature there was much colder, which was much better for ice qi possessors like them.
Not only them, but the rest of the people were already wearing winter clothes, and they immediately enveloped their bodies with qi before descending into the cold valley.
Ling Yun smiled at seeing them like that, and he turned to Ling Xi. "Even though this place is very cold, I think this is the best place for us to live, and we don\'t need to deal with the strong cultivators of this realm."
"That\'s true." Ling Xi nodded to him. "However, you should help them to build some ice caves, so Lian Bing and the others can cultivate comfortably, and I will ask Zhou Yu to set up a formation in this place; only then will those beasts dare not approach this valley."
"You don\'t need to wait for that spirit of void." Meng Xianzi said it with a faint smile. She then took out several devices from his storage ring and threw them in several directions in the cold valley.
As soon as Meng Xianzi activated all the devices, an enormous transparent dome quickly enveloped the entire area, surprising those people.
Ling Yun himself felt amazed upon seeing that, so he turned to Meng Xianzi and asked her. "Where did you get all those devices, Master?"
"Ha ha." Meng Xianzi laughed softly before telling him. "There is a small planet called Tianyang Realm in these upper realms, and the people there not only focus on their cultivation, but they also combine various things with technology. Those protection devices are their creations, which are a combination of modern technology and a formation array. However, you don\'t need to bother looking for them, especially since their realm is always moving around this universe, so not everyone can find them, and they are also not easy to accept visitors."
"That\'s true." Ling Xi nodded in agreement with Meng Xianzi. "Even though I\'ve lived for so long, I\'ve only been to Tianyang Realm once, and the people in that realm are really boring, so I don\'t have the desire to go there again."
"I see." Ling Yun then sighed and muttered softly. "It seems there are still many things I need to understand about these upper realms, especially since there are many planets that are very different from Earth."
"Yun\'er! Come here!" Suddenly, Ling Ling shouted from a distance as she continued to wave at him.
Ling Xi directly pushed Ling Yun forward. "Over the past few months, you\'ve been too focused on your cultivation, so there\'s no harm in relaxing and having fun for some time."
"All right then." Ling Yun nodded and immediately flew over to Ling Ling and the others. "Since all of you will be cultivating in this place, let\'s build some ice caves here, and you guys can cultivate without being disturbed."
"Yes!" Mu Lingxue and the others cheered excitedly after hearing that, and they worked together to build their ice caves; even Ling Yun\'s other women also helped them.
Since the valley was too cold, many of them felt quite uncomfortable. They decided to gather wood in the icy forest not far from their location, and Feng Bing\'er used her phoenix flames to make a few bonfires to warm them.

It was already very late by the time they finished everything, so they decided to rest around the camp fire while grilling various types of beast meat, and they exchanged opinions about their plans for the future.
Huo Jun suddenly asked Meng Xianzi. "Senior, which region do you think is most suitable for us to explore first?"
"Hmm?" Meng Xianzi raised her eyebrows momentarily. "If you guys really want to explore this realm, I suggest you start with the Southern Region. That region borders the sea directly, so the temperature there is much warmer. Moreover, the people in Ouyang City are quite friendly, and there isn\'t much commotion happening there, especially since the city\'s population is not that big, but you still have to be careful with people from the Ouyang Clan."
"Southern Region and Ouyang City, huh?" Huo Jun muttered softly before turning to his son. "What do you think if we go there first?"
"It\'s fine with me." Huo Yun replied with a nod before turning to the five women of his clan. "Mother! Wife! You guys should stay here for now, okay? Once we find a suitable place for us, we will pick you all up to live with us."
Chen Qing sighed softly after hearing that, but she immediately nodded and spoke to them. "All right, we will wait for you two here, but you guys have to be careful and stay out of trouble."
"Haha." They laughed at that, and Huo Jun spoke to her. "Wife, you have accompanied me for so many years; have you ever seen me looking for trouble before?"
"You better listen to me, or I won\'t allow you two to leave." Chen Qing glanced at him fiercely, making Huo Jun shudder.
"Pft!" Huo Ye and the Huo Twins burst out laughing at their father\'s reaction, especially since he was always afraid of their mother.
Huo Jun glared at them before nodding to his wife. "All right, Yun\'er and I will definitely be very careful."

Ling Yun asked Long Wei. "Father-in-law, so what about you? Do you also intend to explore this realm?"
"Yes." Long Wei nodded to him. "However, I won\'t do it any time soon, or your mother-in-law will punish me later."
"It\'s good if you understand." Xiao Xi said as she smiled, but Long Wei felt scared to see his second wife\'s smile instead.
"Haha." Yu Die giggled before she asked her sister. "Sister Xi, what if we chain our husband using that? That way he won\'t be able to sneak away, or else he won\'t come back for a long time, and we\'ll be lonely."
"I agree with your idea." Xiao Xi nodded to her. "Let-"
However, Long Wei immediately hugged them tightly. "You two don\'t have to do that, okay? I promise, I won\'t go anywhere for now, and I\'ll only leave after we\'ve lived in this place for some time."
Long Yuyi and Long Zhan smiled in amusement at their parents\' behavior. They knew that their father was very firm and brave when facing enemies, but he became like a meek sheep when facing their mothers.
Ling Yun himself felt amused seeing his father-in-law like that; he then turned to Long Qiu and asked her via voice transmission. \'Was your father always like that?\'
\'Yes.\' Long Qiu nodded to him. \'My mother had repeatedly punished him to sleep in the guest room for days, so he no longer dared to go against her words.\'
\'I see.\' Ling Yun nodded in understanding. \'Honestly, if I think about it now, you are completely different from your father and mother, you know?\'
\'What do you mean by that?\' Long Qiu asked as she turned to him.
Ling Yun shook his head and answered her. \'Even though you are my wife now, you are still as carefree as the first time we met, and you have no sense of concern at all.\'
Long Qiu frowned at that. \'Don\'t my other sisters care about you? I think their concern is enough for you, right? As for me, I\'ve always liked this, and I don\'t want to change my character.\'
Black lines appeared on Ling Yun\'s forehead, and he pulled Long Qiu lying prone on his lap before smacking her buttocks.
"Argh!" Long Qiu instantly screamed in pain, causing all of them to look dumbfounded at the two. She struggled to break free, but the current Ling Yun was stronger than her, so she shouted angrily at him. "What are you doing? You embarrass me!"
"Humph!" Ling Yun snorted at her and smacked her buttocks once again.
Once again, Long Qiu released a scream of pain. "Argh! Stop it!"
Seeing them like that, Xiao Xi asked him. "Did Qiu\'er upset you, Yun\'er?"
