556  A small dispute [1]

*SWOOOSH*

Standing beside the brilliant blue array, Fei Lingxi, Shi Yixian and Xia Shenyi looked at teh enormous amount of astral energy swirling around Zhao Tian.

Zhao Tian is sitting cross-legged under the blue array, absorbing the pill he refined.

Xia Shenyi's gaze squinted, looking through his cultivation. "Hm.. he could reach the 8th level of the Stellar Essence stage today."

With a nod, Shi Yixian replied "My Liege is nearing one of the crucial movements in one journey of cultivation."

As they were watching, a small pink fox walked past that way and glanced at the energy around him in awe.

Yao Lian quickly dashed to them and asked "Is Master making another breakthrough?"

Nodding her head, Xia Shenyi replied "Hm, more than a cultivation breakthrough, it is a physique breakthrough."

Yao Lian's ears twitched, and a soft sigh escaped her lips as she plopped down on the ground near them. "And here I am, still stuck in the Half-Empyreal realm. It feels like I've been stagnating forever." With a shrug, Xia Shenyi replied "As Tian said.. you are talentless trash and you need an Empyreal pill to break through, but I don't know the recipe to create an Empyreal pill."

Yao Lian let out an exasperated groan, her hands clutching her head. "And where am I supposed to get an Empyreal Pill? It's not like I can just pluck one out of thin air."

"One of them is crazy expensive and it's not like everyone has that recipe." With a sly smirk, Xia Shenyi tilted her head as a playful smile appeared on her lips "Or…you could always take a shortcut."

"Have sex with Tian, enter seclusion with the other women, and use his essence as a catalyst to strengthen yourself. Who knows? It might be more effective than waiting for an Empyreal Pill."

Yao Lian's jaw dropped, her eyes widening in disbelief as her cheeks flushed a deep crimson. "What in the world are you saying?!" she exclaimed, staring at Xia Shenyi as if she had sprouted a second head. Xia Shenyi, undeterred, waved a hand dismissively. "I'm just saying," she replied, her tone as casual as if they were discussing the weather.  "It's a perfectly valid method. Besides, you're from High Star. Your control is leagues better than most of his wives. They're inexperienced, but you wouldn't have to deal with the same… complications as entering seclusion." "Hmm, we can just use some seals on you."

Yao Lian glared at her "Ridiculous! Do you honestly think I would give up my purity for something like that? This princess of the Yasheng Star does not stoop so low."

Xia Shenyi had a sudden thought "Hm, he can ask Yao Jing... Since she is a great alchemist, she must have the recipe for that Empyreal pill."

"And we can get that for free."

A glimmer of hope appeared in Yao Lian's eyes "Yay!!!"

...

Zhao Tian, who just appeared in his room, sensed three presences standing outside the door and his gaze squinted.

Walking to the door, he opened it and glanced at the two young men standing outside, a powerful aura radiating from them.

'Inner court disciples? What are they doing here?'

As he stepped out, he glanced at Li Jia, who was standing on the right side with a deep red bruise on her face, from where the blood was dripping down her cheek.

Huh?

His eyes narrowed and feeling his gaze, Li Jia lowered her head, her body trembling "Tian..."

'What the fuck is happening here?'

He reached out and gently grasped Li Jia's hand, pulling her to his back.

A cold glint passed through his eyes and he glanced at the young men standing before them.

One of them took a step forward and looked at Zhao Tian up to down "So, you are Zhao Tian, huh..."

The young man had a nonchalant look and spoke "You see, we are from the Crimson Flame wing."

Zhao Tian instantly understood what was going on and saw through their souls 'Evil cultivators. Same wing as Li Xueyan... Velnorah's wing.'

The young man, Wei Liang, continued "We are close friends with Li Xueyan.. and we know she was close with you too."

"But she suddenly went missing for a month; do you know anything about this, Little brother?"

Zhao Tian shook his head and muttered "I don't even know who Li Xueyan is, so piss off."

Hearing his answer, Wei Liang's gaze condensed 'He is clearly hiding something... I am sure Xueyan was tracking him down to suck his yang essence, that sadistic bitch.'

'But suddenly, a month ago, she disappeared.. I initially thought she would eventually return and thought she might have gone far away for a sect mission.'

'But it's been a month and there are no records of her submitting a sect mission.'

'The last guy she was in contact with was...'

Wei Lian leaned forward, "Now, Now... Little Brother, it is not nice to lie..."

As Wei Liang reached out to touch Zhao Tian's shoulder, Zhao Tian grasped his wrist and twisted it as the noises of bones crackled in the air.

*crack* "Augh!"

Before Wei Liang could react, Zhao Tian's hand moved like a blur, grabbing the back of Wei Liang's head and slamming it into the wall with brutal force. *THOOM* Splinters of wood and plaster exploded from the impact as Wei Liang's head created a deep indentation in the wall.

"Guh!" Wei Liang gasped, his body trembling from the force of the blow. H-HUH?

Li Jia's eyes shrank in shock looking at Zhao Tian and fear gripped her heart 'W-What the hell is he doing? Does he want himself to be killed?'

What?

Lei Feng who came with Wei Liang was taken aback and before he could snap out of it, Zhao Tian twisted his leg and delivered a sharp kick to his gut.

"Gugh!"

As the wind got kicked out of his gut, Lei Feng was momentarily staggered back, falling to his knees. "Augh!"

"What is happening here?" ------------------------------------------------------
