Chapter 11 Price For Advice?
In this world, it is said that one out of three persons has a small dick.
Xia Tian has a large one as for the Author he definitely hides a monster inside.
So who is the last one? ° O °
Cough, never mind.
This narcissistic author was lost for a moment.
...
Inside the main hall of the Xia Family.
Xia Chen was glaring at Ran Yuming with bloodshed eyes.
Ran Yuming stood there motionlessly, unable to move under his intense killing intent.
It was clear from Xia Chen's looks that one side of his mind thought of her as an enemy and wanted to kill her off, while another side thought of her as his woman and wanted to protect her.
All of a sudden he felt a sword slowly slipping into his hand, without thinking of anything else he gripped his finger around the hilt of the sword and waved it towards Ran Yuming, finishing her off.
*Swish*
No sound was heard from Ran Yuming's mouth, but before dying, she did not forget to glance a look into Xia Tian's eyes.
She was sure, it was all fault of this man.
"Haaa..." Xia Chen took some deep breaths and calmed himself.
It will take a while for him to recover.
After a minute, he handed back the sword to Xia Tian, who in turn put it back into one of his rings.
"Haha, worthy of being my little brother. Only if your brain was as big as your dick..."
Xia Tian let out a satisfied smile but suddenly as if remembering something he spoke.
"Your dick is also small, does it mean your brain is even smaller?"
Xia Chen who heard this can't help but narrow his eyes at Xia Tian, his little brother was insulted, but alas, remembering that he can't fight against him, he can only quietly go back to his seat and swallow his anger.
As for the rings in Xia Tian's hands, all eight rings in his hands have spatial storage, each ring denotes a different girl, one can easily see that the 7 rings correspond to the same color as the eyes of the 7 girls in the beginning.
Evelynn wore a silver runic pattern ring exactly similar to what is in Xia Tian's hand, so it is further confirmed.
All the rings are a pair.
The rings have shared storage space, so whatever she would put in her ring, would be accessible by Xia Tian and vice-versa.
But the 8th ring with pink color, who does it belong to?
"Old man, I don't have much time, why don't you cut to the chase and tell me why you called both of us here?"
Xia Tian said to Xia Leng, his work was done here, he would rather go and play with his new toy than sit and chat with men.
Xia Leng albeit was surprised by the turn of events today, but he did not forget the main purpose of why he called them here in the first place.
His eyes swept across the faces of his both sons, and he nodded and said.
"You both, along with Ying'er will be going to the lower-level realm to train, make your preparations, and depart as soon as possible. Seeing Chen right now, I can confirm, you need more experience of the larger world outside..."
Xia Tian had already faked a sleeping position listening to the bullshit of Xia Leng, no one other than Xia Tian has the right to bullshit in front of him, he is the supreme master of Dao of Bullshit.
Xia Leng ignored his expression and continued his lecture.
After seeing Xia Tian's previous actions he was sure that although he seem to be resting, he was paying attention to his words.
"At last, there have been numerous sightings of strange events occurring in lower-level realms, we compared the events with the one in the ancient records, if our conjecture is right then it's due to the opening of an entrance to the ancient ruins. As for which realm to go, you can choose yourself."
"Ancient ruins..." Xia Tian muttered, he was not interested in it.
He mostly ignores most of the things going on in the world, so he hardly knows the number of eras that this world has gone through.
One can call it cognitive bias.
Xia Tian would go outside, fuck beauties, and play with people's minds and that is pretty much it.
Nonetheless, his simple actions have ignited the flames of wars many times, but he didn't care.
... Fucking the sister of the ruler of the divine realm? Who dares to say it is simple?
For now, Xia Tian will instead explore the greenery of the Sacred Sky Jade realm, instead of some lower realms.
The greenery here of course refers to the beauties. More beauty, more trouble, and Xia Tian loves trouble.
"I am not interested."
"Why is that?" Xia Leng asked.
At Xia Tian's reply, Xia Leng was dumbfounded because this time, he was ordering them and not asking them, his instincts however screamed at him as he was about to show his authority to Xia Tian, therefore he changed his words.
The poor guy was only an inch was from getting beaten, he avoided a great catastrophe at the last moment.
"Are you an idiot old man, ah pardon my bad memory, you are indeed an Idiot, how can I forget this?"
Xia Tian said innocently, he was doing this on purpose, and the purpose was to annoy the old man.
Unfortunately for Xia Tian, his old man either has a great amount of patience or he was used to getting insulted.
Seeing no reaction from him he lost interest in Xia Leng, and cut to the chase.
"Do you really believe we will fall for your trick? You just wanted to use us to solve your own troubles... So rather than going yourself, you decided to send us to the lower realms in the name of getting experience."
Xia Leng was left speechless.
Indeed that was his goal.
After getting exposed he can't help but cough shamelessly.
"Hmm, never mind, I have changed my mind, you guys will leave this separate dimension and go to the mainland of the sacred sky jade realm to get experience."
The servants of the Xia family can't help but shook their heads at him.
Since Xia Leng changed his earlier words it implied that the young master's words were indeed correct.
He was played, yet again by the young master Tian.
Xia Chen on the other hand sighed, his perspective was a little different now, he wasn't blind by being filial.
He also noticed this and sighed.
"This old man wanted to use us to clear his problems, I was blinded to believe that people close to me won't have their own self-interests." He thought.
His mentality has changed a bit, after the earlier incident.
Afterward, Xia Leng asked a few more things with Xia Chen and sent him outside, he also ordered all the people to leave the hall, as he wanted to talk alone with Xia Tian about something.
"... Tian'er you seemed to be quite experienced with women?"
Xia Leng was slightly awkward saying this, but Xia Tian did not mind him and replied.
"More than you."
Xia Leng nodded to him, as for Xia Tian's strange answers he had gotten used to it.
"Then, can you help me with Shui'er, she rarely goes out of her room and only make some strange painting inside her room."
"What should I do so that she will stop spending her whole time in her room?"
Xia Tian stared at him for a while.
Is this old man asking for his advice?
Not like he can't, but everything has a price. Xia Tian has a rule, as long as you pay the price you can get anything from him.
It's just that people can't afford the price.
"Old man, you should first decide whether you want her to spend less time painting or spend more time outside."
"Are both things different?" Xia Leng asked.
"Not different but completely different. Even if she stops painting it does not guarantee that she will come outside, she can just find any other things to do inside her room."
"The first one will require discouraging a behavior while the latter is about encouraging a behavior. First, clear your goals and what you want."
"Punishment only works for discouraging behavior and never for encouraging a behavior. Most parents don't even understand this and use punishment as a way to encourage good behavior in their kids, which in turn backfires on them and also give the child many mental issues..."
[A/N: For more just refer to operant conditioning on the web.]
In the end, Xia Tian decided to help the old man, as for the price it is something he decided by himself for Xia Leng without even telling him about this.
As for why he did not ask the old man, one can only blame Xia Leng himself for it, he wasn't able to give something of interest to Xia Tian, so it was his style of revenge.
The old man will puke blood and regret this day for ages to come.
The price was just too much for him...
As for how Xia Tian knew much about kids, let's just say training those seven troublemaker girls was anything but easy for him.
Xia Leng digested the information received from him.
Right after that, Xia Tian who was just quietly sitting felt a few fingers poking at his back.
"Hmm?"
Soon he heard a sulking voice of a girl which was enough to melt any man.
"If punishment is bad for kids, why did you punish me yesterday."
The voice was of Evelynn as she made a gesture as if reminding Xia Tian about the earlier incident.
Her buttocks still hurt.
She looked cute.
Even in disguise, her beauty was not any less than Long Wanhui or Ran Ling.
Xia Tian just glanced at her not caring about her pitiful look.
She can fool anyone else but not him.
"This is because I did not want your that behavior to repeat..."
His voice crushed all her hopes.
" _ "
Evelynn was speechless.
"That is too logical!"
She pursed her lips in disapproval and disappeared again.
She did not care about Xia Leng sitting here or their relationship getting exposed, why would she care about it?
Now Xia Tian is awake, that is the only thing that matters to her.
Xia Leng who saw the scene in front of him was dumbfounded.
Did his son even make his moves on the Immortal? He is really fierce.
Not only she is Immortal but also his teacher, this is a two-in-one package.
With this speed, he wonders what will happen once his son transcends and become immortal.
His gaze towards his son changed, even more, now he looked at him in reverence and worship.
If not for the fact he was his son, he would have kowtowed to him and asked him to become his teacher.
Xia Tian would have of course refused him.
Why would he teach a man?
Xia Leng after seeing this remembered his own problems.
He glimpsed at Xia Tian and thought, maybe his son can help him.
"Um, son ... It is that your mother and Ying's mother do not get along well, is there any solution to it?"
Here he was referring to Xia Tian's mother Long Wanhui and Xia Ying's mother Wang Wenshu.
Xia Tian laughed seeing the expression on his face.
"Just bang them in a threesome and the problem will be solved. Next day, they should be fighting against you instead of fighting against each other."
"Against me? Isn't that nailing myself?"
At Xia Leng's words, Xia Tian snorted.
"Who told you to eat more than you can chew?" He said lazily and left.
As for whether the old man would be successful or not? He already knew of it.
He would fail.
Xia Tian had earlier noticed some abnormalities in Long Wanhui's body.
Hehe, mother and sister.
That will be something new for him... He hasn't experienced this in his earlier life.
Yes, Long Wanhui is the price that Xia Leng have to pay.
His most favoured wife would be gone.
What a poor man he asked Xia Tian's advice to help him with her, but if he had known about Xia Tian he would dare not.
Xia Tian work in strange ways.
He may help you but he will take away your thing which you are asking help for, ultimately defeating the purpose of helping someone.
That is the price for receiving advice from Xia Tian.
.....
Author's Note: I have decided to choose the alternative option, MC will explore the sacred sky jade realm, and as for lower realms don't worry about that.
