Did I succeed in changing his mind?
Xia Shuiyao thought.
She had a hard time believing in herself.
Xia Tian was silent though inside he was angry, he was angry not at her words but at the intention behind her words.
Why do people always want to paste their thoughts and perception on everyone else around them?
This is something that irritated him.
He never goes around other, telling them his perception and thoughts and pasting onto them.
At most he would provide a wider worldview that contradicts their existing belief... As for how they behave towards the new information, it's none of his concern.
But other people are completely different, if their views do not match yours, they would think something is wrong with you...you are broken...
You need help... Out of nowhere, the hero character inside of them will rise ready to fix the broken.
Xia Tian leaned close to her ears, as his smile got wider.
"Why?" he whispered softly.
Xia Shuiyao's face fell, but this was just the beginning.
"Why should I change?" Xia Tia spoke, unlike others, he was ready to listen.
Give him the reason, and he will change...
Xia Shuiyao felt this was the right opportunity, and she instantly spoke.
"Because that would make me hap-"
Suddenly, her words were paused, and a complicated look flashed passed her face.
She hesitated to speak further because she felt her words were wrong.
Xia Tian smiled noticing her look.
"Because that would make you happy, right?"
He straightforwardly asked.
Xia Shuiyao was left dumbfounded. 'I want him to change because it will make me feel happy?'
Xia Tian laughed.
"You care about your happiness but what about me? I am just doing what makes me happy. What's wrong with me feeling good? What's wrong with me caring about myself and being selfish?"
Xia Tian spoke with a sneer.
"Aren't we both selfish then? ..."
"Tell me sister aren't you also selfish like me...? If you are selfish it is right and if I am it's wrong?"
Faced with a barrage of questions, Xia Shuiyao's expression turned gloomy.
The more she became aware of his words, the more she realized that nothing was wrong with him.
He was just doing what was making him happy...
What's wrong with that?
His happiness comes at the cost of others' happiness... But if he keeps others happy, what about him?
Everything was right with him, she was the wrong one.
Till now, she does not even know how selfishly she behaved, at least Xia Tian accepts he works for his own selfish desires, but what about her? Till now she wasn't even aware of her acts... And how selfish her acts are...
The guilt-ridden Xia Shuiyao was quiet, she didn't dare to face him anymore.
Being guilty is just a matter of perception, if you perceive yourself as wrong and at fault, you will feel guilty.
The old fox's anger calmed down, he wasn't extremely angry, considering her age he knew the girl had a lot to grow before she can learn about herself.
In this world, everyone is working for themselves, including their wife, children, mother, and father.
Your mother might stop you from doing a sport which has a danger to your life. She doesn't care how much you thrive for it, for her your well-being is her selfishness.
A father might stop you from going into politics as it is dirty, but you want to grow? You want to feel the true world... You want to be a politician... But your father's selfish desire might stop you from becoming it.
One day you might come exhausted from work, but your children might not consider anything about the situation and demand going on a trip, and when you deny saying you are tired then all of a sudden you become a bad daddy for them...
Everyone is selfish, better start working for your dream, without expecting someone else to help you fulfill yours.
For some Xia Tian was bad for behaving for his interest, but why don't the same people look at their behaviors? Are they selfless ones? Or are they also like Xia Shuiyao?
Xia Shuiyao's vision turned hazy, her eyes had gotten wet, and all the lust have disappeared as if it never existed.
No, it wasn't disappeared, she just forcefully suppressed it, her whole body left like burning, but she was in no mood for it, she doesn't dare to say anything anymore.
The thought of apologizing came to her mind, but she felt it was useless.
Forced to the edge her last defense mechanism kicked in, regression.
In regression, the person would behave like a child, making pouty faces, crying, etc.
In turn, the person in front of her would associate her actions with a child, unconsciously the image of a child would overlap with the image of her.
What after it?
You definitely won't argue with a child, right? You would want to protect it, console it, etc. All because it reminds you of helplessness after all you were also once a child, in the same helpless state, you may have forgotten your days of infancy, but your brain hasn't...
Regression is mostly used by women, consciously or unconsciously.
Some women use it as a manipulative tactic to get what they want, while some women do it unconsciously.
Xia Shuiyao was doing it unconsciously, she was forced to the edge by him.
Xia Tian frowned.
He doesn't care about a person crying, but there was something else she had to take care of.
His dick was still erect?
Did she forget about it?
Hey, women... Would you really just warm him up and leave him alone?
That's inconsiderate of you!
Multiple thoughts surfaced in his mind, and after a momentary silence, he sighed.
"Would crying change anything?"
He spoke making the woman silent for a while.
She lifted her head and glanced at him.
"Then what will do?" she asked while wiping off her tears.
Xia Tian pointed to his dick. His eyes were screaming, 'Take care of it and everything is solved!'
The corners of Xia Shuiyao's mouth twitched, and after a moment of silence, she broke out into a burst of laughter.
"Haha..."
Xia Tian raised an eyebrow.
"Are you doing it or not?" he decisively asked, if the woman does not do it by himself, don't blame him for forcing her.
The last thing he cared about was the person's consent.
Xia Shuiyao for the first time wasn't threatened by his looks, she stopped laughing and moved down.
'How can this man still think about this?' she thought while pulling his pants down and nearly laughed again.
Now, she found that Xia Tian's actions can be quite entertaining sometimes.
Xia Tian sighed in relief when he felt a warm sensation enveloping his dick.
The room was soon filled with the moaning voices of Xia Shuiyao.
.....
Two hours later...
"Um, is it alright to walk like this?" Xia Shuiyao awkwardly asked.
She wanted to rest in her room, but Xia Tian being Xia Tian dragged her out of her room.
"Mmm!" Xia Tian nodded.
His motive was simple, to offend some people and beat them out.
Men being men get jealous seeing Xia Tian's toys.
The best way to offend a crowd of men is by wandering around while keeping a hand around a beauty's waist, and if the woman is as beautiful as Xia Shuiyao then the effect will be multiplied.
She naturally excluded her cold vibes, so when a man will see her walking he would have a desire for her, more than that her slender and magnificent waist was held by Xia Tian, so he would naturally become the target of the envy of other young masters.
Of course, he did not spare his daughter at all, he also dragged her into his play, so he was holding Nyx on one side while Xia Shuiyao was on the another side.
Though the former needed to be bribed for it, she didn't like public attention, and the best way to bribe Nyx was to give her some ice cream to eat.
"Mmm!" Nyx nodded in agreement when Xia Tian gave her another cup of cold ice, after she caught it in her hands, Xia Tian begin his journey to look for young masters while embracing beauties left and right.
Xia Shuiyao was speechless.
'How can she walk without looking at the path? Do we get another pair of eyes after becoming immortal?' she thought.
Nyx was naturally focused on eating ice cream, but her feet were still on the ground without missing a single tile she naturally walked, it was an astonishing feat for mortals, but for Immortals and above, it wasn't a particularly huge feat.
Nyx's current body should be fundamentally larger than the divine realm itself, not to mention her eyes that can peer across space-time.
Xia Shuiyao sighed inwardly and pretended to be calm.
She was weirded out by the strange gazes over her, for someone who just spent most time inside her room, facing this much public attention was torture.
'Is he punishing me for my previous words?' Xia Shuiyao can't help but think while looking at Xia Tian who was unbothered by the whispers around them.
"Hey, is that young master?" one of the guards whispered.
"Indeed it is young master Tian!"
"But what is he doing here, wasn't he send to the mainland?" one of them can't help but say.
He was present when Xia Tian and others passed through the portal to the sacred sky jade realm.
"Indeed, but who are the two women around him?"
The other guard shrugged and shook his head, he was seeing both for the first time.
All the servants made sure to feast their eyes secretly, it's not everyday you can watch two heavenly beauties at same time, Nyx even in her disguise matched Xia Shuiyao in appearance and her figure was already out of this world, she has the perfect curves, which can make any women envy and put them to shame.
The servants, did not forget their decency and removed their gazes after a quick look.
There was one mistake Xia Tian did, he was walking inside his family boundaries, so the chance of someone offending him was close to none.
"The right one is our cold goddess!"
The experienced one said, making other servants stunned.
"The cold goddess?"
"Idiot! It's young miss Shuiyao, the daughter of master Leng!"
"Oh!"
Xia Shuiyao's mouth twitched listening to their whispers, her face was red due to shame.
'He is definitely punishing me!' she screamed in her mind, it was clear to her that Xia Tian was torturing her.
"But why are they wandering like this? Isn't young master holding them in too ambiguous position?"
"No Idea..."
"Don't tell me both ar-Gah! ... Why did you hit me!"
"Mind your words, idiot!"
The servants of the Xia's household were surprised, but nobody dared to approach them, first, they can't see Nyx's cultivation, and most of them thought she is a mortal without cultivation, another reason was Xia Tian and Xia Shuiyao both are from the main line of descendants.
Xia Tian soon arrived near the training hall, he already knew that servants would not fight with him, and thereafter he walked near arena.
His eyes shined, when he found three women above a platform.
Xia Tian is only person in the world who actively looks for trouble.
