The Psychopath's Harem

Another day passed...

The energy around Xia Tian's body was constantly fluctuating.

Black, Red, blue, orange, ... White, and numerous colorful elements started rotating around him forming a small vortex.

The vortex emitted boundless energy, it can even suck the entire spiritual energy of the whole realm if not controlled.

This was due to the primal chaos physique.

The primordial elements have gathered around Xia Tian.

Luo Xue was silently observing him, she had never seen elements shining with this brilliance, the fairy was seeing the primordial elements for the first time, and their aura alone was enough to make her sigh in admiration.

She was inwardly amazed at how Nyx can rest without a movement while sticking so close to the whirlpool of energy.

Shortly after, the air around him shook violently, then everything around him froze.

With a rapid motion, the elements floated inside his body making his body emit an aura that can rival the emperor cultivator.

Xia Tian had broken through earth profound real first stage, though aura was enough to suppress the emperors.

Let's alone the thousand of tricks this old fox carries that even can make an overload sweat in fear.

His eyelids gleamed with a profound light when he opened his eyes, it dissipated after a short while and turned to normal.

Xia Tian upon waking up, first spread his soul sense covering the whole flying ship, Ye Suyin was in her room cultivating, and there were no signs of Li Nan, that woman has left her flying artifact behind and escaped.

Xia Tian shrugged.

"It's her loss, now this is my ship."

The old fox claimed the artifact as his without any shame.

Thereafter, he turned to Nyx.

She was awake and waiting for his instructions.

Her face was completely refreshed, with no signs of prior tiredness.

Xia Tian knew one day wasn't enough to completely recover her strength, but he wasn't worried.

'It should take us four days more to arrive at the ethereal cloud city, Suyin is cultivating. Shui'er should be in Xia Manor, then there is that Wei woman who took away Ying'er and Xia Chen and at last this little fairy.'

Xia Tian thought for a while, he nodded to himself evaluating his choices.

"Choose one out of three," He spoke.

Nyx was yet again perturbed by the sudden question.

She found Xia Tian showing three fingers at her, and without a second thought, she randomly touched his forefinger.

"Xia Manor then..." Xia Tian nodded.

Luo Xue heard his words, somehow she understood that each finger represents a choice.

[Umm, master what were the other two choices for?] she asked.

'One was for chasing after the Wei Family women and another was for fairy ride.' Xia Tian explained.

[Fairy ride...?]

Luo Xue found the name funny yet weird.

Is it related to her?

Xia Tian's eyes shined with a glint.

'Wanna experience it?'

He asked with a soft chuckle.

Luo Xue wanted to say yes, but suddenly her whole body quivered,

[No.]

She politely declined, trusting her instincts.

She had learned the phrase, curiosity kills the cat.

In front of Xia Tian, she felt like a curious cat ready to be slaughtered.

And his laugh felt even more creepy to her.

Luo Xue's reply was slightly disappointing to him, with a sigh he turned to Nyx and ordered.

"Open the portal to Xia Manor."

The next moment, a vortex formed in front of him.

Xia Tian jumped out of bed and approached the portal.

[Master, wait!]

Xia Tian was ready to step inside it when Luo Xue stopped him.

He raised an eyebrow.

The fairy is getting more disturbing day by day.

'What?' he asked annoyed.

[Your clothes.]

she spoke briefly, making him frown.

Xia Tian looked at himself and found he was completely naked.

His expression changed.

He quickly took a new set of clothes out and wore it.

Then, he turned his gaze in the direction of Nyx.

"Do you want me to go naked around the streets?"

He asked her.

Nyx was unable to understand him, she shook her head in denial.

Why would she want him to walk naked?

Xia Tian nodded.

"Then, why didn't you tell me I am not wearing anything?" he asked.

Nyx turned silent, a troubled look flickered across her face.

After a moment of silence, she replied.

"I thought you wanted to show off."

" _ "

Her reply made Xia Tian speechless.

"That makes sense..." he muttered and nodded in agreement.

He found her idea amusing.

Nyx was unaware that she had just given a new idea to him.

With a shrug, Xia Tian walked inside the portal.

...........

Inside the Xia Manor.

"Meihui, do you really have to come here? Patriarch must have listened to you, why don't you try talking with him? Maybe you will be able to escape from here. No, we should better contact Elder Qiao. She would definitely help you." Song Yan spoke with a whisper, only to earn a jab from her sister.

"Yan, be quiet. We are inside the Xia family boundaries, if someone heard us, it would get the young miss in huge trouble. We are here as guests, behave like it."

Song Yue calmly spoke reprimanding her sister.

The former wanted to argue, but she was silenced by the woman walking in front of them.

"You two are foolish..."

Long Meihui shook her lightly at her two servants.

Unlike them, she can sense that all of their movements were being tracked every second.

There was constant surveillance around them, to make sure they don't move around without reason.

Even the maid which was quietly guiding them had her sense heightened, she must be secretly observing their conversation.

Long Meihui was in the emperor realm, but even then she was not able to sense the strength of the woman walking in front of her.

"She is a great emperor..."

Long Meihui sighed and quietly whispered, her voice was loud enough to be heard by the maidservant.

"It's overlord."

The maidservant corrected her words and continued guiding them to the main hall.

A sharp glint flashed across Meihui's eyes, and a smile formed on her face.

'She was indeed listening to our conversation...'

The servant's words confirmed Meihui's suspicion, she was silently monitoring their actions.

Long Meihui deliberately said the earlier words to provoke this woman.

Song Yan and Song Yue's bodies tensed at her words.

'She heard everything!?'

Song Yan's expression turned ugly, unlike Long Meihui, she and her sister were disposable, and they were just accompanying her from the Long family side.

Even if Xia Family kills them, no one from the Long family would care about it.

Song Yue had other thoughts, 'So the rumors were true...'

The Xia family was renowned for having the most number of overlords. Even the servant guiding them is in the overlord realm, a scene like this was rare during her stay in the Long family.

Contrary to Xia Family, the Long family had only a few dozen of cultivators in the overlord realm, but all of them were different from ordinary overlords and have their unique cultivation techniques and path.

The unique dragon path has helped them crush many families and rise to the top.

The Xia family stood on the top with numbers while the Long family with the quality of cultivators.

As for the Zhang family, it was in a declining stage due to their old patriarch, however, he was recently removed from his position and now a delegate from the divine realm had taken over.

Everything changed so suddenly in the Zhang family that no one was able to evaluate their current condition.

One day the patriarch of the Zhang family suddenly disappeared and another day the whole family was forcefully undertaken by the divine realm.

His disappearance suggests that he is either dead or taken prisoner.

The other two families dared not to pry into the matter, according to them the Zhang family patriarch must have offended a high-ranked immortal of the divine realm.

If the situation continues like this, then the Zhang family would soon disappear from the world.

The maid stopped in front of a large door.

"Go Inside," she spoke.

Her work ends here, after that she turned around and left.

Her figure disappeared from the vision of Long Meihui, but she was sure that the woman hadn't left but only made her figure hidden from their eyes.

She took a deep breath and stepped inside.

"Be a parasite, huh..."

The last words of the Long family patriarch echoed in her mind.

Song Yan and Song Yue did not accompany her inside but waited outside the entrance.

After a moment, Song Yan spoke with concern. "Why is young miss obeying the patriarch's words? With her talent, I am certain the patriarch would give her another choice."

She felt Long Meihui's decision was akin to committing suicide.

Why sacrifice everything for the family? Weren't they just using her?

Song Yue smiled wryly, she was well aware of her sister's personality.

Her sister was strong yet impulsive, though when it comes to understanding people she falls far behind her.

In her eyes, Long Meihui had already planned everything.

Her young miss is far more cunning than she takes credit for, even now, she can't read Long Meihui's thoughts.

Inside the hall, Xia Leng was sitting on the patriarch's seat.

Xia Len was avoiding his son for a few days and has gone to secluded cultivation.

Xia Leng was troubled.

The old man's work was now piled up on his head.

"If he doesn't want to work, he can at least pass on the patriarch seat to me.." he muttered annoyed.

Xia Leng felt like an unpaid worker.

He didn't care about the guards' opinion, the Xia family patriarch's seat was already his, it was just a matter of time.

*Creak*

Soon, the gates were opened and Long Meihui gracefully walked inside.

Seeing her a frown formed on Xia Leng's face.

The bastard Long You was definitely up to something.
