Chapter 197 - Master Vs Li Ming

"Will you sleep if I'll be there with you?" Lord Yueliang asked her in a soft voice.

However, Li Ming immediately shook her head in denial as she said, "You guys are not understanding. I don't want to dream. I can't handle it right now. I'll..."

"Sssh! It's alright. We get it." Wen Guiying lightly whispered into her ears as he brushed her hair with his hands.

"What he means is that he will be there with you in your dreams while I'll also look after you here."

The Supreme Immortal told her after she calmed down a little.

Li Ming was puzzled as she looked at the two of her mates, waiting for them to explain exactly what they were talking about.

"I can enter into your dreams and change them according to my wish. I'll make sure that you will have a peaceful sleep. Will you let us take care of you, Little One?" 

Li Ming stared at the Moon Immortal for a few seconds as he waited for her answer.

She then turned her face to look at Wen Guiying who gave her hand a little squeeze in assurance.

"You can trust us, right?" He asked her as his eyes bored into her.

She finally nodded her head as she replied, "Alright!"

The two Immortals were quick as they once again placed her in the center of the bed as they both laid on either side of her.

Wen Guiying flicked his sleeve and the next second they were covered by a soft duvet.

"Now, close your eyes and let your mind relax." Wen Guiying guided her as he kept sliding his fingers through her hair.

Though she was feeling even more tired than before but Li Ming still could not make herself close her eyes.

The Moon Deity placed his hand over her eyes to cover them and this made Li Ming finally shut her eyes.

A beam of blue qi entered into her brain as the Moon Immortal helped her to relax enough to give in to the sleep.

Li Ming found herself relaxing and her brain finally succumbed under the pressure of tiredness.

"Rather than diverting her mind to some beautiful dream, make sure that she doesn't have any dreams at all. This will be more relaxing for her mind." Wen Guiying whispered to the Moon Deity as his eyes kept watching his sleeping mate intently.

Therefore, thanks to her two wonderful and caring mates, Li Ming finally enjoyed a peaceful and dreamless sleep for the rest of the night.

The dawn was only a few hours away and she had a lot of work to finish.

While these three were enjoying a peaceful time, her other mates, Ruoshan, Hei Long, and the Heaven Emperor, were receiving their punishments from their master.

Li Ming tied her boots and stood up from her bed. After checking her appearance in the mirror she pulled a fur cloak from her closet and started walking downstairs.

"What is the news that you are planning to share with us in the evening?" Snowy asked her the moment she set her foot inside the kitchen.

Both Snowy and Mallow were perched on the kitchen counter as they stared at the cookies that she baked before getting ready for the day.

Wen Guiying had canceled their morning training session which allowed her to sleep for two more hours.

Then after waking up around six o'clock she spent an entire hour cultivating inside the divine lotus to rejuvenate her spiritual qi.

It was around nine-thirty or something as she finished getting ready for the day.

Li Ming picked up a few cookies from the tray and gave them to the two furballs.

Who would believe that a dog and a little fox enjoyed eating cookies as much as a normal human do?

"As far as I know it's still morning. So, we will talk about this in the evening." Li Ming said as she covered the tray with a lid.

"Come on, sometimes you should share a thing or two," Snowy said as he munched on the cookie.

His eyes sparkled with joy as he enjoyed the rich taste of chocolate.

Li Ming kissed the two furballs on their head as she replied to Snowy, "I'll share them in the evening. For now, I'm leaving. Bye-bye."

She waved at the two and immediately teleported to the wooden cabin in the Snow Fields.

----

"You should believe me. She's not in danger as long as she can control her dreams."

"Stop with your nonsense! She was hurt right in front of her eyes. I just want to know what is going on. Why she got hurt?" 

Wen Guiying's angry and frustrated voice boomed through the silent Thundering peaks.

Even the wind had stopped blowing the moment everyone realized that the Supreme Immortal was angry for some reason.

"I have told you many times that there are some things in her life that are meant only for her to handle. The only thing that you can do is to be there for her as she takes care of them." The banshee tried to explain.

"I know that you are worried about her, but don't worry, she's not in danger. If you want to help her then continue to train her and you can also work on teaching her how to control her dreams. To be honest, she's still not ready to face her biggest mission yet."

Wen Guiying calmed down a little as he heard the worry and care that was evident in the banshee's voice as she talked about his mate.

They knew that she was also trying her best to help his mate but his worry for his little mate made him lose his calm.

"Alright! I trust you and that's exactly why we are working together." Wen Guiying said to the banshee and the woman nodded her head lightly.

How could he not trust the person who brought their mate to them? 

If not for the banshee, the five of them would have never met their mate. Zhang Yong would have never found another bondmate and their world would have never found a gem like Li Ming.

Just then Wen Guiying received a message. The white seal with a snow pattern on it immediately told him who had sent the message.

Looked like he also needed to visit the Snow Fields and that too immediately.

---

Li Ming stood there with raised eyebrows and dropped jaws as she watched six Immortals, in short, all of her mates, cleaning the old man's house.

Hei Long and Zhang Yong were trying to fix the dirty living room while Ruoshan and the Heaven Immortal were busy in the kitchen doing only God knew what.

She watched as Lord Yueliang and Wen Guiying swept the snow that was covering the courtyard.

The six Immortals were so deeply immersed in their work that none of them noticed the girl standing at the entrance of the hut clad in a beautiful white dress accompanied by a white fur cloak.

The Immortals finally took notice of her when the chirpy voice of the old man, who was relaxing in his chair near the entrance, disturbed the silence.

"Look who has decided to grace us with her presence." 

Li Ming didn't even spare a single glance to the old man. Her eyes were busy taking in the shocked appearance of her mates.

"Little One..."

"Who told you guys to stop? Don't waste time and finish your work quickly. There's still a lot of other pending works." 

The old man quickly cut off the Moon Immortal as he shouted the orders.

"No! Since you guys are already here, let's come with me to help in my nursery." Li Ming said in her cold and demanding tone.

"How dare you to order my disciples? They will work on my orders!" The old man shouted furiously as he glared at her.  

"And they are my mates. They will be ready to help me. I don't need them to order around like you!" Li Ming huffed at the old man.

The old man gritted his teeth as he passed a glare at his disciples. He just came to learn about the girl being the chosen one for his disciples and he still needed to digest it.

However, how could he let the little girl won over him? He needed to show her that even though she was his disciples' mate, he was still their master and had more authority over them.

The Immortals passed each other glances which were filled with dread as they finally realized what was going to happen next.

"They would never go against my orders. I'm their master. They would never dare to oppose me and let me down like this." The old man said proudly.

"I'm sure they won't. But I'm also sure that they won't let me down either." Li Ming replied with equal confidence in her voice.

The two of them kept glaring at each other for a few more seconds before the old man broke the silence.

"Fine! Let's see exactly who is right about their trust in them. Don't cry when you lose."

Li Ming huffed as she replied, "You don't have to worry about me, old man. Let's see who is the one going to cry." 

And with that, the two of them turned to look at the six Immortals.

Who was going to win? The Master or the mate?
