The Psychopath's Harem

Chapter 209 Unexpected Gift (3)





Xu Qing nearly yelped in surprise when Xia Tian suddenly grabbed her by the tail and pulled her toward him.

Her body slid across the glass table, and she ended up falling onto Xia Tian's lap, resting on the sofa.

From there, Xia Tian did not do much except play with her soft tail.

Little did Xia Tian know that his actions were enough to send electric shocks coursing through Xu Qing's body.

For foxes, and any beings with a tail, it was the most sensitive part of their bodies, and they never allowed anyone else to touch it, even if it was an acquaintance.

And now, Xia Tian was casually squeezing it and even shaping it, occasionally plucking a few hairs.

Xu Qing wanted to cry without tears, her body curling up in Xia Tian's lap.

The princess found the situation amusing—how could Xia Tian be unaware of the sensitivity of a fox's tail?

He was intentionally making Xu Qing feel ashamed.

However, the princess also felt a sense of satisfaction.

It meant that Xia Tian genuinely liked her gift.

She heaved a sigh of relief because, even though she was a primordial being older than him, he was supposed to be a god and their sole master.

If he had any displeasure with her, he wouldn't hesitate to kill her and create a new primordial being to replace her.

It demonstrated that primordial beings were no different from ordinary beings, driven by survival instincts that guided their core behaviors.

Just as the princess thought she might be spared, the verdict came for her.

"So, you were the one who stole my prey..." Xia Tian spoke casually, his expression unchanged as if he didn't mind her actions.

However, the princess, who had been stalking him for a long time, knew that her fate was sealed.

"Damn!" she cursed, resigning herself to her fate as her body slumped onto the soft surface beside Xia Tian.

Observing the princess curiously, Xu Qing couldn't comprehend their conversation, but it was her first time seeing her "past" master in such a helpless state.

She began to wonder about the identity of her 'new master'.

*Pakh!*

"Huh?"

The sound of a resounding slap echoed through the room, causing Xu Qing's mouth to hang open in shock, but no words escaped her lips.

"Go and find some other place to play," commanded Xia Tian.

'I am not some wild animal!' Xu Qing wanted to retort, but the rigorous training she had received left her with no choice but to obey her master's orders.

Her body swiftly transformed into that of a small fox, leaping out of Xia Tian's lap and scurrying away aimlessly.

Xu Qing had been ready to unleash her pent-up frustration, but as soon as her paws hit the floor, she realized she could barely walk, let alone run.

Every muscle in her body felt weak from the intense stimulation she had just endured. Trembling, she made her way to a nearby room, seeking solace and respite.

Meanwhile, Xia Tian turned his attention to the princess with a mischievous smirk. Now it was her turn to be pulled into the position previously occupied by Xu Qing.

However, there was no trace of power in the princess's expression, only a dark and foreboding aura that surrounded her.

Xia Tian's mind was a fascinating enigma. He fixated on the fact that his prey had been stolen in the past, disregarding the princess's genuine intention to present it as a gift.

The princess, despite her tall frame, was surprisingly light and thin, making it effortless for Xia Tian to position her on the small surface.

"Master, I truly didn't intend to steal her away," the princess pleaded, her words filled with desperation, yet falling on deaf ears.

Xia Tian questioned her, "Oh, really? Then why did you take her away when I was hunting that self-proclaimed idiot demon king?"

This time, the princess found herself at a loss for words.

How could she possibly justify her actions? She had unmistakably stolen his prey, naively believing that Xu Qing would serve her faithfully.

At that time, Xia Tian was merely a cultivator in the Void Realm, and she never fathomed that he would one day seek retribution for her daring actions.

"The slave will accept her punishment, Master!" the princess sobbed, her tear-filled green eyes pleading for leniency.

In that moment, Xia Tian felt the urge to beat her up for her terrible acting.

It was evident that her punishment was unavoidable.

However, before that reckoning arrived, Xia Tian harbored one final curiosity.

"Stop acting and tell me something," he spoke with a slightly serious tone, causing the princess to straighten her back, seeing a rare opportunity for redemption.

"Ask me anything, Master! I am even prepared to disclose my undergarments size!"

Ignoring her shameless words, Xia Tian posed a thought-provoking question, "What is your genuine opinion of me, disregarding my godly status and powers?"

"Huh?" The princess, who had prepared herself for various scenarios, was caught off guard by this unexpected query.

Xia Tian clarified, his silver eyes piercing into her, "If I were not a god, if I were just a cultivator in the Void Realm, what would you think of me?"

Understanding his intent, the princess's eyelashes fluttered as she pondered his question.

Xia Tian was contemplating whether he could have won her affections if he had been a mere cultivator without his godly aura.

At present, she was merely obeying him due to his authority.

After a moment's consideration, the princess parted her lips and showered him with false praise, "Master, it is undeniable that you are the embodiment of greatness. Even in the absence of your divine nature, I would still be irresistibly drawn to you. Your mere presence would bewitch my senses, and I would undoubtedly fall under your spell."

She shamelessly lied, skillfully stroking his ego.

Revealing the truth would undoubtedly lead to dire consequences, and she was unwilling to take that risk.

Xia Tian's face twitched, and with a swift *knock*, he smacked her on the head.

In the end, no matter what, this woman couldn't escape a reprimand.

"Speak honestly, or I'll throw you to the dogs!" It was a rare occasion when the narcissistic Xia Tian desired the truth.

Apart from his daughters, he had never indulged in any intimate encounters with Void Realm female cultivators.

Therefore, this intrigued him.

There was one of his another female stalker, ready to offer herself to Xia Tian, a Void Realm cultivator who wasn't one of his daughters.

However, she didn't meet the criteria to be his toy due to her lack of maidenhood.

Hence, this seemingly innocent yet cunning princess was going to be Xia Tian's first prey.

The princess felt skeptical about Xia Tian's words. What if this was a trap?

"Must I speak the truth?" she inquired cautiously.

"Yes," Xia Tian nodded affirmatively.

"Truly, the truth?" she pressed further.

"Yes!" he confirmed once again.

"You won't punish me for it?" she asked, her anxiety palpable.

Xia Tian pondered for a moment before responding, "At the very least, you won't die."

His sarcastic remark caused the princess to nearly choke and die.

Speechless, she stared at him before sighing resignedly.

After she looked back at him, her entire demeanor underwent a profound transformation.

No longer did she regard him as her master, and the submissive nature that once defined her vanished in an instant.

This sudden change might have caught anyone off guard, but Xia Tian was accustomed to such transformations.

It was like a chameleon encountering another chameleon, each adapting to the other's presence.

Gone was the coquettish princess, replaced by a woman with attitude.

She dared to run her fingers across Xia Tian's face, a bold gesture that sent a shiver down his spine.

With a flick of her tongue, she moistened her lips, a clear display of her burgeoning interest.

"Let me think," she spoke softly, her voice laced with intrigue. "If I were to speak honestly about your earlier self, you might not have stood a chance against me. The only time you had an opportunity was when you were at your prime, before you created those adorable little children of yours. Since then, your strength has diminished at least threefold, and your soul bears countless cracks..."

Though the princess had been ordered to be honest, she cleverly used the word 'might' to protect herself.

Even for her, predicting the actions and reactions of this narcissist was an impossible feat. Her words, however, carried a crystal-clear message.

Xia Tian knew all too well that his soul had weakened considerably after the birth of his daughters, leaving him with no real chance of overpowering her.

While this realization left him slightly embittered and angered, the knowledge that his prime self had once held the upper hand was enough to satiate his ego.

If the princess had spoken differently, perhaps he would have waited, continuing to cultivate until he could finally defeat her without relying on his godlike powers.

Xia Tian's arrogance was ever-present, but it was seldom challenged by those around him, for they were usually not powerful enough to provoke his ego.

[Recap: Xia Tian defied his fate as the son of destiny and, instead of perishing after fulfilling his purpose, he relinquished all his powers and started anew. This occurred during the first chaos cycle. However, it was akin to cheating, as he retained all his past knowledge. As a result, Destiny placed a curse on his soul, compelling him to achieve the void realm three times before being able to reside permanently within it. Until then, at the conclusion of each chaos cycle, his strength would revert back to that of a mortal.]
