Currently, Xia Tian and Xia Shuiyao were both walking next to each other. One was walking confidently while another was just looking around leisurely as if taking a stroll. It was a rare sight, Xia Shuiyao rarely goes out of her room.
Many of the guards saw her for the first time today, they were amazed by her appearance.
Both passed through the corridor to arrive at on Large hall with expensive decorations, only guards were present there and the rest of the place was empty.
This was the main hall of the Xia family, the patriarch along with his son Xia Leng sits here to discuss the matters relating to the mid-level realms conquered by them.
There are too many realms, so naturally, they have to devote a lot of time to listen to each of their representatives, conquering realms is easy, though the same can't be said about ruling them.
Xia Shuiyao's face darkened upon seeing it, she looked around anxiously for signs of her father but found no one.
"If you are looking for father, let's go to his room." Xia Tian said, obviously he was enjoying the panicked look on Shuiyao's face.
Xia Shuiyao ignored him and increased her pace in another direction.
Inwardly, she was cursing her fate, how can fate be so cruel to her, if she told the complete incident in front of everyone, she can gain the sympathy of many people, and her father would be forced to do justice.
It was obvious that Xia Tian was in wrong, and misusing his status.
Although his actions deserved death in her mind, but she knew just for sniffing her bedsheet and behaving shamelessly she can't kill him, at least not until he had the status of disciple of an Immortal and family best genius.
Remembering the Immortal she can't help but shudder. It was she who saved him last time, though the immortal did not do anything to her for harming her disciple, which further decreased Xia Tian's opinion in Xia Shuiyao's mind, as it simply mean that the immortal did not care much about his well-being.
Looking at the carefree face of Xia Tian, she could not help but curse herself again and again. Why was she so impulsive and attacked him again?!
"Brother Tian!?"
A surprised gasp sounded, stopping both of them in their tracks.
It was Xia Ying.
She smiled awkwardly at Xia Tian. She was still embarrassed after the morning incident, inwardly, however, she can't stop her giggles.
That Xia Tian was not seizing any opportunity to take advantage of her at all, despite her so many efforts. But today, all her efforts paid off. Maybe she shouldn't have escaped in the morning, something more could have happened between them.
"Ying'er?"
Her line of thought was broken by the sudden voice of Xia Shuiyao.
Xia Ying woke up from her thoughts and glanced at the figure next to Xia Tian with a strange look. It was her half-sister Xia Shuiyao, and also the blood sister of Xia Tian.
She did not have much impression of her, as she had rarely met her, still, she will be soon her sister-in-law, therefore she has to put up a face in front of her.
"Greetings, big sister Shuiyao." Xia Ying bowed lightly and said with a smile.
There was no bad blood among members of the Xia family, since Xia family select future patriarch based on merits. Women and men both have an equal chance, currently their father Xia Leng has the most chances to succeed their grandfather.
But, she had to indeed agree, the woman in front of her looks even slightly better than her.
But this is only due to her being young.
Just a little more growth and soon she will surpass her.
Xia Shuiyao just nodded at her. She was not used to interacting with people.
Still, she did not forget her purpose for coming here.
"Do you know where the father is?" she asked Xia Ying.
Xia Ying thought for a moment and replied. "... You can check Alchemy hall, he should be there."
Xia Shuiyao instantly left ignoring both of them.
Xia Ying frowned upon her behavior, shouldn't she at least thanks her? Nonetheless, she looked at Xia Tian with a questioning gaze. "Why are you with this woman?"
She has never seen this pair of siblings together.
Xia Tian smiled mysteriously signaling her to come closer.
Xia Ying obediently followed him and moved towards him, but his next words were enough to make her mind go blank.
"Xia Shuiyao proposed to me this morning and I rejected her. Therefore, she wants to find father to complain about me."
"...."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtXia Ying stared at Xia Tian blankly unable to make any meaning of what he said.
But soon she let out a surprised yell, as her eyes turned wide open.
"H-How!!"
Her mind started working at the fastest speed possible.
Xia Shuiyao is Xia Tian's blood sister!? Isn't a bit too much!! And how the hell this ice block fell for her fiance??
This is a complete mess!!
Their situation was completely different, since people have multiple wives and multiple children in this world, it wasn't that rare for two children to marry each other having only one parent in common.
After all, the Xia family is located in the sacred sky jade realm, which is the largest mid-level realm. People can live for a hundred thousand years after reaching the overload realm. So, it was not the first time it was happening.
But Shuiyao's situation is completely different and extremely rare!! Wait!! Doesn't it mean she has a competitor now??
What should she do??
"Hahaha, look at your face girl." Xia Tian laughed out loud at her reaction. Was she always that gullible?
Before she can understand anything Xia Tian scooped her boobs once and vanished from his place following after Xia Shuiyao.
The embarrassed figure of Xia Ying was left alone.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, she moved her hand towards her right breast which was touched by Xia Tian, and squeezed it lightly.
"Does he like mine breasts? It was the second time today..." She muttered and left in another direction.
As for Xia Shuiyao's matter, whether it was a joke or not, she does not know but she will still clear it with Xia Tian later.
.....
Xia Tian was leisurely walking towards the alchemy hall, however, he stopped and looked in another direction as he can hear an interesting exchange going on.
"How can you stay in the same room for so many years Shui'er ....!! "
Saying it was an exchange would be wrong, it was more like a scolding, and the person getting scolded was no one other than Xia Shuiyao.
She has a flat expression on her face and was just listening silently.
The person scolding her was none other than Long Wanhui.
Xia Tian was silently observing the figure in front of her. It wasn't bad, she was quite a beautiful lady
She had long blonde hair and shiny golden eyes, he can also sense faint remittance of dragon bloodline from her.
She must be his birth mother. He killed off his real parents by himself last time, let's see what will happen with this one.
To be honest, he doesn't have any feelings for his parents in this life at all.
Long Wanhui soon spotted the figure of Xia Tian and stopped scolding Xia Shuiyao.
She strode towards Xia Tian and immediately hugged him.
"Tian'er, my son, why are you here?"
He wasn't surprised at all, after all from his memories it should be clear she dotes on him too much, far more than her daughter Xia Shuiyao, who just isolate herself.
After all Xia Tian was a genius with cowardly behavior while Xia Shuiyao has a good talent but she was too cold to others. People will naturally feel more attracted to the former and dote
him.
Xia Tian however has some other thoughts, he did not forget to enjoy the feeling of her enormous breasts, but there was still something that caught his attention.
But for now, he put it aside his mind.
He separated himself from her as a gentleman completely ignorant of the fact he was enjoying her body a few moments ago and asked.
"Mother, do you know where the father is?"
Long Wanhui looked at her son for a while, there was something different with him but she can't exactly tell what it is.
"Your father had gone to another realm to settle some matters, he should come by tomorrow."
"En" Xia Tian nodded at her, then looked at Xia Shuiyao who was, in turn looking at them with an incomprehensible expression.
"Why do you want to meet father Tian'er?" Long Wanhui asked.
Xia Tian: "It's not me but it is sister Shuiyao, who wanted to meet him."
Long Wanhui glanced at Xia Shuiyao with shock. "You wanted to meet your father?"
How long it has been, since, this girl came out and asked for their whereabouts? They thought she had forgotten about her parents.
Xia Shuiyao nodded originally but then she shook her head and shifted her attention to Xia Tian. "No need for it anymore, come to my room and tell me what you want."
After that, she quietly left leaving Long Wanhui confused.
"What is going on??"
Xia Tian however laughed, he clearly understood what happened.
She lost her hope, after seeing the difference in treatment by Long Wanhui between Xia Tian and herself.
Therefore, she chose the easy route to directly negotiate with him.
Before Long Wanhui can ask anything to Xia Tian, he had also disappeared leaving her alone, she can only let out a disappointed sigh.
"Huh, Children really forget their parents after growing up a bit..."
Long Wanhui too noticed the difference.
Today, Xia Tian had a mature aura around him, not to forget the way he confidently carried himself was quite charming.
However, she chose not to question him, as she always wanted her son to grow some backbone.
On the other note, Xia Tian who was completely oblivious to Long Wanhui's inner monologue arrived back at Xia Shuiyao's room.
Upon his arrival, Xia Shuiyao lightly closed the door but did not lock it.
"Now tell me, what do you want."
She said facing Xia Tian upfront, this time her voice was not as cold as before, and she was unable to conceal slight fear in her voice.
Xia Tian snorted and motioned her to sit next to him. She hesitated a bit, but in the end, sighing she sat next to him.
This is what she brought upon herself.
The whole room fell into silence.
"..."
"..."
Xia Shuiyao waited for him to speak first, each and every passing second was like a whole day for her.
Finally, unable to take it anymore, she turned her face in his direction.
The moment her eyes met his eyes, her heart skipped a beat, it was a strange feeling, something foreign in her body reacted, making her feel a strange connection to him.
If she has the ability to see souls at this moment, she will notice, her soul was trembling.
Xia Tian can clearly see her soul with his divine eyes, her soul was shaking in excitement, but now he choose to ignore it and spoke without hiding anything at all.
"You have a unique body constitution, a special Yin body which requires male essence to cultivate properly.... " He paused a bit, observed her reaction, and continued.
"... Seeing your reaction, I can already guess that you are aware of it."
"Hmm, .... Actually, you can easily raise your cultivation by building a male harem, it is not that rare."
"I don't care." Xia Shuiyao said coldly.
This is where she fell, manipulating someone requires deducting information from their responses, that is the most crucial step. Her saying I don't care imply that she is not interested in multiple males? So it must mean two things either she want to be single for whole life or only have one man.
Naturally, Xia Tian thought she like the latter option that is only having one man.
What Xia Tian said thought sense, just like men many powerful women in this world have built their own male harems.
So it was a good idea, if she properly cultivated her body she can easily reach the immortal realm and not to forget the carnal pleasure that she would be enjoying.
But how can Xia Shuiyao not be aware of her own body?
She just did not like the idea of a male harem.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHer thoughts were like a traditional woman, she will only follow one man for her whole life.
As long as he does not do anything extreme she would not leave him, her thoughts were too simple or can be said naive.
But one thing was sure, she was the ideal woman for any man.
Xia Tian next word caught her off guard.
"I can see that you don't like the idea of a male harem. How about I give you a cultivation technique that won't require you to dual cultivate to increase your cultivation."
"!!"
She looked at Xia Tian with surprise, this is not what she thought, shouldn't he be the one demanding?
Why it is going in the opposite direction?
She can't understand anything.
"... Why?"
Xia Tian chuckled. "Don't celebrate too early. I am just raising the bets."
"Raising the bets?"
"Yea."
Xia Shuiyao was surprised, she has a bad feeling about this, she felt like she was facing the devil and making a deal with it.
The devil was not even giving her a choice to think, as if he already knew what decision she will make.
Little did she know that it was only just the beginning
"Evelynn, give me my rings."
Xia Tian then stated calmly extending his right hand in front of him.
Seven rings appeared in his hands out of thin air. All of the rings had similar designs and carvings, it has no jewels or stone embedded in them, the only difference between them was the color of the runic engravings.
Xia Tian narrowed his eyes slightly and soon an eight ring appeared, it had slightly pink-colored runic patterns engraved on it.
He ignored the dazed figure of Xia Shuiyao and wore them casually, all of the rings faded away the moment he wore them. Not a single ring can be seen with the naked eye, as the moment someone wears them, it becomes invisible.
Xia Shuiyao's mind however was falling into chaos. "Evelynn?? Isn't this name of the Immortal master, but why is he saying her name like this?! And where do these rings come to spawn from... Wait a moment, it disappeared !?"
The ring with silver runic patterns flashed briefly, and soon it disappeared again.
A scroll appeared in Xia Tian's hands which he handed over to Xia Shuiyao.
She suspiciously took it and inspected it thoroughly.
The more she read, the more surprised she felt.
In the end, she put it down and whispered. "This is too good to be true."
A cultivation technique that can even cultivate against one's body constitution and even alter it. This is a treasure, even immortals would go to war for it.
As she was busy thinking about this cultivation technique, a hand wrapped around her waist pulling her to Xia Tian's side.
Her body stiffened and trembled slightly.
"Behave yourself." Xia Shuiyao stated calmly without putting in any resistance.
But it was clear from her posture that the moment he does anything more than this, she would pull out.
This is not the first time today he behaved this way with her, there is only one reason she can think of, but she dared not.
She wanted to ask, what he wanted in return but before she can say anything, it was Xia Tian who placed one of his fingers on her plump red lips, motioning her to be quiet.
Xia Tian: "Earlier I remember saying you are like a shard of ice, that will cut anything which it touches but is brittle enough that it will break with enough pressure. Do you know why I said that?"
"Don't know." Xia Shuiyao answered.
She had a bad feeling about where this conversation is going, and her worries were found true by Xia Tian's next words.
"Every time I touch your body, it trembles in fear. You try your best to hide it but are unable to. Your behavior is cold towards everyone including your parents. You seem to hate me even before I had contact with you for the first time, your gaze towards mother is of disappointment and the only reason I can come of is that you had some kind of accident in the past..."
"... Xia Shuiyao, you were assaulted eighteen years ago, am I wrong?"
Xia Tian asked with a smirk.
*Crack*
The ice shard broke.
