Star-Moon Forest
Ling Chen stood on the spot, as she looked at Xia Tian in confusion. At first, she was fighting a gold-rank beast, but he suddenly appeared in front of her, and he immediately took her away without saying anything.
Xia Tian looked at Ling Chen with a relaxed look, and he then asked. "Do you want to take revenge on the Ling Main family?"
"Huh?" Ling Chen looked at him as she blinked repeatedly.
"Do you want to take revenge on them?" Xia Tian once again asked her.
Ling Chen answered quietly. "I want to take revenge on them, because they have ruined my life, and they have also made my mother suffer until the end of her life."
Xia Tian then walked towards her, and he was standing right in front of her. He looked at her straight in the eye and said. "If there is a cause, there must be an effect. Revenge must be avenged, but don't let revenge control you; and you must control it. If you are blinded by revenge, then you will be lost in your cultivation path, and you will not be able to distinguish between right and wrong. In the end, you will become a heretic cultivator."
"Hmm?" Ling Chen raised his eyebrows.

Because, in her heart, she wanted to kill the entire Ling Main family. "I already know what happened to you a few years ago, Ling Chen."
Ling Chen was shocked to hear that, and her body trembled violently because of it. She felt that she had tried hard to hide the matter, and that was also her reason for joining the Dual Cultivation Hall in the Star-Moon Sect, because she did not want people to know about her past. But now, he said that he already knew about the incident.
Xia Tian then stretched out his hand to grab her shoulders, but Ling Chen reflexively took a few steps back, and she shouted at him. "Don't touch me, Brother Xia! I'm a filthy woman!"
However, Xia Tian moved faster, and he hugged her directly. She struggled hard to free herself from his embrace, but he hugged her very tightly. Moreover, his cultivation was much higher than hers, and it made her powerless to break away from him. "Please release me, Brother Xia! I really am a filthy woman, and I-"
Xia Tian immediately covered her mouth with his hand to stop her from speaking. "You are not filthy, Ling Chen. If you think of yourself as a filthy woman, then I am much more filthy than you. Because I have slept with many women in the past, both those who are virgins and those with husbands."
Hearing that, Ling Chen stopped struggling, and she looked at Xia Tian in disbelief.
Xia Tian pulled his hand from her mouth. He then explained it to her. "Perhaps, you didn't know the news about me in the past. Back then, because my spiritual root was crippled by Liu Rouyan, it made me change very drastically. All the citizens of Red Stone City know that I am a debauchee, I often go to brothels, and I always seduce women to sleep with me."
Ling Chen was stunned to hear that, she didn't expect Xia Tian to have such a past. But it also made her wonder in her heart, because the current him doesn't look like that kind of person. In addition, she was also confused by his words about having his spiritual root crippled, and this was the first time she knew of someone who could restore his spiritual root after being crippled.
Xia Tian chuckled at her reaction. "I'm telling you the truth, I was still a crippled person until a few months ago. However, the accident I had a few months ago made me change drastically again, I managed to recover my spiritual root, and this is who I am now. If you don't believe me, you can ask Little Qi directly, since she's been by my side for a very long time."
"But how is that possible?" Ling Chen muttered to herself, as she continued to stare at Xia Tian in disbelief.
Xia Tian then caressed her cheek, and it made Ling Chen tremble again. She wanted to push his hand away, but both of her hands were held tightly by him. After that, he touched her forehead, and he shared a technique with her.
Ling Chen immediately closed her eyes; she then began to read the technique that appeared in her mind for some time, and she felt truly amazed by the technique.
[I didn't expect that you would pass that technique on to her, Master!]
'Hey, I've been in debt to that woman for too long, and Ling Chen is the most suitable person to learn her technique.'
Alice also realized that Ling Chen was the most suitable person, she then sighed. [But if you give that technique to her now, then that woman will come to this realm soon. And if she comes here, she will beat you up, Master.]
Xia Tian laughed in his heart upon hearing that. 'Heh, you underestimated me too much, Alice. Even though my current cultivation is far below hers, she won't be able to beat me up just like that, and I still have some ways to restrain her.'
[You are evil, Master!] Alice exclaimed as soon as she knew what he was thinking.
'In combat, all means are lawful, Alice.' Xia Tian replied with a faintly evil smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore long, Ling Chen had opened her eyes, but she had not yet learned the technique, and she had only skimmed through it. "That Emotionless Sword Technique is truly extraordinary, Brother Xia. Where did you get such a technique?"
"Frankly speaking, I owe the owner a debt to find someone worthy of being her successor, and I think you are the most suitable person to be her successor, so I decided to pass the technique on to you, and you can get your revenge by using that technique." After that, Xia Tian released Ling Chen from his embrace, and he said again. "When you start learning the technique, you will meet her soul imprint, and you will understand a lot of things after talking to her."
Ling Chen looked at Xia Tian in confusion, but judging by his expression it was clear that he didn't want to tell her anything. "Alright then, I'll start learning that technique later."
"Good." Xia Tian nodded with a smile. After that, he gave her some pills that were the same as the ones he gave to his women, except for the Golden Yin Pill. Because to swallow the Golden Yin Pill, she had to dual cultivate with him.
Ling Chen gave Xia Tian a complicated look after he explained the benefits of each pills, because all of them had extraordinary benefits. "Brother Xia, this-"
"You don't need to thank me, Ling Chen." Xia Tian then was silent for a moment, and he looked at her awkwardly, before he spoke again. "Actually, there is one path that can make you stronger quickly."
Ling Chen's eyes sparkled upon hearing that, and she impatiently asked. "What is the path, Brother Xia?"
Xia Tian scratched the back of his head, and he replied with an awkward smile. "Be my woman, and dual cultivate with me."
"Huh!?" Ling Chen was shocked to hear that, she then walked backward. The next second, she ran away and leaving him behind, as she said. "I'm sorry, but I can't be your woman, Brother Xia."
[Hahaha!] Alice burst out laughing at that. [I didn't expect that she would reject you so blatantly, Master!]
Xia Tian didn't say anything; he just stared at the back of Ling Chen, who kept running away. And then he sighed heavily before left the place.
