Of course, Dongfang Ting didn't know that Ling Yun was excited because he had heard about "the people on the same path". He had presumed that it was the first time Ling Yun was hearing about the cultivators.

Even I find it to be a joke. It can't even be considered an aspiration, it can only be an illusion at most…"
