Chapter 544 Qingfeng Sword Soul

After they left the torture chamber, Zhu Yuhe asked him. "Why don't you destroy the torture equipment, Tian?"

"Hmm? Why should I destroy them?" Xia Tian asked back as he turned to her. "To be honest, I deliberately didn't destroy them, and I will use them on my enemies in the future."

His answer left Zhu Yuhe and the other women dumbfounded, and Ran Qing said. "Haha! Brother, I feel that you are starting to return to your old self, I still remember exactly how you tortured those evil cultivators before you killed them. They even begged you for mercy, but you gave them cold shoulders."

"Was he so cruel back then, Sister Qing?" Liu Ying curiously asked.

Ran Qing directly explained it to her. "Unlike the current him, who always killed people outright, he never killed people like that in the past, but he would slowly torture them first."

"Huh?" The women turned to Xia Tian, who shrugged helplessly.

"But you guys don't have to think about that. He only did that to those evil cultivators, and he even dismembered their bodies into pieces." Ran Qing added.

Let alone the non-fighter cultivators like Liu Ying, even fighter cultivators like Zhu Yuhe and Zhou Xuan shivered upon hearing that. Luckily, the current Xia Tian never did that, and he preferred to finish off his enemies directly without torturing them first.

Xia Tian shook his head. "Qing, you don't need to mention the past anymore; the current me is far different from the old me."

"Well, that's true." Ran Qing replied with a nod. "To them, the current you may be cruel. But to me, the current you is much softer than before."

'If the current him is soft, then how cruel was he in the past?' The women wondered in their hearts.

Murong Mengxin chuckled. "In the past, he was actually very gentle, but he was also very ruthless, and that is precisely what made those women go crazy over him. If we go to the higher realms in the future, and if those women find out that he is Long Tian, then you guys should be prepared to welcome the crowd of women."

Estella suddenly spoke angrily. "Since when was he gentle? He is the most ruthless person! He and the Saber Immortal dismembered my pet's body; they even roasted and ate its body!"

Hearing that, the women stopped walking and looked questioningly at Xia Tian.

Xia Tian shrugged at them. "Her pet is still a beast, so we eat it like any other beast."

"You-!"

"Shut up!" Xia Tian cursed and glared at Estella.

"Humph!" Estella snorted and turned her face to the side.

Before long, they had arrived at the dining room, and they saw several giants that Murong Mengxin had frozen before.

As she approached one of the giants, Xia Ning asked. "Are they members of the dark race, Tian?"

"Yes." Xia Tian then turned to Murong Mengxin. "Did you freeze them?"

​ Murong Mengxin nodded to him. "Even though they've been petrified, they're still alive, so I deliberately froze them with my eternal ice."

Xia Tian nodded in understanding; he then approached the giants and thought of a way to get rid of them from the fortress. Soon, he got an idea. "Qing, I will open a crack into the void, and you can throw them into it."

"Xia Tian! You-"

"What?" Xia Tian turned to face the enraged Estella. "If you continue to protest against me, I will also throw you into it."

Hearing that, Estella then shut her mouth; she was terrified that Xia Tian would really do that to her.

Xia Tian shook his head and used his void-breaking steps, and Ran Qing immediately lifted the giants up with her energy, then she threw them into the void. "Done!"

'Damn it! He really is heartless!' Estella was cursed in her heart.

Xia Tian then sighed, looking at the furniture in the dining room, because they were too big for ordinary humans like them. "Sigh, we should destroy all these furniture first and replace them with new ones."

"We can't do anything, right?" Chen Xue spoke as she looked at the furniture. "These furniture are too big, and we are too small to use them."

"True." The other women nodded in agreement with Chen Xue.

Estella immediately ran backwards as soon as Xia Tian took out the Qingfeng Sword, especially when the sword pointed itself at her and vibrated strongly as if it wanted to attack her. 'Fuck! That damn sword still scares me!'

"Hey, dark queen! Why are you so terrified of Qingfeng?" Ran Qing asked mockingly, and Zhu Yuhe and the others also looked at Estella in confusion.

With a chuckle, Nalan Qing added. "Apparently, she's been deeply traumatized by Qingfeng, Mom."

"Shut up, little elf!" Estella only dared to curse from a distance.

Xia Tian smiled faintly at seeing Estella like that, and he decided to scare her by releasing the Qingfeng sword from his hand.

"Damn you, Xia Tian!" Estella immediately ran away as fast as possible when his sword flew towards her, let alone the Qingfeng sword, which also released its sword energy.

The women were stunned for a moment by Estella's behavior, and then they burst out laughing. They didn't expect her to be so terrified of the Qingfeng sword.

"Xia Tian! Quickly, pull back this damn sword!" Estella shouted as she continued to run, dodging the Qingfeng sword's attack.

Hearing Estella's words, the Qingfeng sword vibrated stronger, and its sword energy also became stronger than before.

However, Xia Tian suddenly called out. "Qingfeng, come here; you have scared her enough."

Hearing Xia Tian's call, the Qingfeng sword flew back towards him and hovered above his head.

However, the women's eyes suddenly widened, except for Ran Qing, Nalan Qing, and Murong Mengxin.

"Tian! What kind of creature is that?" Xia Xing asked as she pointed at the small white creature standing on top of the Qingfeng sword. The little white creature itself looked like a tiny human, but it also looked like a fairy.

Xia Tian looked up and smiled at the little white creature. He then stretched out his hand, and the little white creature jumped into his hand. "I'm glad; you can come out of the sword, Ling."

"En." Ling nodded repeatedly as she rubbed her face against Xia Tian's hand.

Xia Tian then turned to his women and showed her to them. "She is Ling, and she is the soul of the Qingfeng sword."

"Huh?" They were shocked to hear that, and their eyes locked onto Ling.

Although Ling resembled a human and a fairy, and she also understood human language, but she couldn't speak at all, and only Xia Tian could communicate with him.

Yu Suyin then approached them, but when she stretched out her hand to touch her, Ling immediately hid behind Xia Tian. "Does she not want to be touched by other people, Tian?"

"Yes." Ling was placed in Xia Tian's palm after he nodded. "All this time, she hasn't allowed anyone else to touch her, except for me and Zi Yun."

"Zi Yun?" Yu Suyin and the others looked at Xia Tian with questioning looks.

Xia Tian smiled and explained it to them. "Like Qing'er, Zi Yun is also one of my goddaughters, and she is the only one who can inherit my old swordsmanship. Apart from that, she is also the only person who can use the Qingfeng sword besides me."

The women nodded in understanding; they already knew that Xia Tian had five goddaughters, but they only knew about Nalan Qing, and only now did they hear the name Zi Yun.

Hearing Xia Tian mention Zi Yun, Ling looked up at him, and her eyes were filled with longing.

"I'm sorry, Ling. I don't know where Zi Yun is right now, but I'm sure she should be fine, and she's probably still as naughty as ever." Xia Tian said while rubbing her little head, and Ling shook her head at him, but he could understand her feelings.

After that, Ling jumped and disappeared into the Qingfeng sword again. Then several swords made of energy appeared around the sword, and they moved swiftly, cutting all the furniture in the dining room into small pieces.

"Wow!" Yin and Xin exclaimed in amazement that the Qingfeng sword could move on its own and that all the furniture had been chopped into small pieces.

After that, the Qingfeng sword returned to Xia Tian's hand; he rubbed the blade for a moment and stored it again. "Now we just have to tidy up this place, then we'll look at other areas."

They wasted no time and immediately used their energy to pick up the small pieces of former furniture and arrange them to the side of the dining room.

"Tian, after this, we will buy new dining furniture to fill this room." Liu Ying said while estimating their furniture needs, because there were quite a number of them and the dining room was also very spacious.

"Well, you and the others can manage things, Ying'er." Xia Tian then walked out of the dining room as he said. "Let's take a look at the other areas; there are still a lot of areas we haven't visited yet."

Estella, on the other hand, did not immediately follow them and sighed heavily as she gazed at the empty dining room. 'Sigh, at this rate, I won't be able to regroup with the remaining members of my race.'
