"... Xia Shuiyao, you were assaulted eighteen years ago, am I wrong?"

*Crack*

The ice shard broke.

Xia Shuiyao's body shook at his words. "H-How do you know?"

A secret that she thought, she will take her grave was unearthed today, bringing back the memories which she thought was disappeared forever.

Along with it came the pain, and this is what exactly Xia Tian wanted.

Pain

When a person feels pain, whether mental or physical, they either extremely agree or completely disagree with something, there is no middle way.

And why did Xia Tian want that?

He simply wanted a straight answer from her, and not the normal answer which women normally give like, "I will think about it and tell...."

Think about yourself, how many times you were in pain, and what were your responses to the questions asked during that period, try to analyze the responses.

All of your responses will either be completely agreeing or outright rejecting.

As for Xia Shuiyao, She does not even care at this moment that she is being slowly manipulated by Xia Tian.

She thought, she would just silently finish off that monster and no one will ever know what happened. Yes, she won't tell anyone. [A/N: Here, the monster is not Xia Tian but the person who nearly rap*d her 18 years ago.]

Even if she was conquered by Xia Chen as planned by destiny, she won't tell him. (A/N: Xia Chen was the blood brother of Xia Ying and the favored son of destiny.]

Women are like this, they want you to have zero secrets in a relationship, while they will not tell you many things about themselves and continue to hide it.

And when they are caught either way they will make you feel guilty.

If you were the one hiding something, they would say that you don't trust them enough, and if they were the one, then, they would say something along the lines that, "Do you not trust me?", and somehow again make you feel guilty of not trusting her and asking her about something.

In the end, being guilty is a matter of perception, and men are easy to manipulate.

"How do I know?" Xia Tian's hand brushed past her hair as his voice resounded in her ears like a demon's whisper.

He wanted her to focus her mind on his nonsensical words which will ultimately make her tired.

He wanted to make her feel mentally exhausted.

Here comes the dao of bull*hit.

"By your behavior, of course, a person's behavior is either inherent or developed."

"Some people are born cold, but you were definitely not one of them as they have a hard shell and not a brittle shell like you, so inherent behavior is out of the picture."

"Then, the only remaining way was that you were conditioned that way either by your surroundings or by yourself, just like how we learn a language..."

"When we are born, our emotional mind is far more dominant, therefore, we just do what we are told, we are easy to manipulate as a kid, and we easily learn a foreign language to us which we never know, demon kids learn demon language, human kids learn human language, have you ever seen a human kid learning demon language while living with humans? No! Right? As a kid, Both languages are foreign to them so where do they learn them from? From their parents, of course, the kids observe them and learn from them, so they can learn what they observe ... "

"Simply put, your behavior would be cold if you were treated without care, ignored and frowned upon, but that doesn't seem to be the case, even now in Xia Family, people treat you much better despite your cold attitude."

"Then, the last option would be, that you had an extreme experience that led you to your current state."

"Huh, an extreme experience..."

"I wonder what it is?"

"A girl who is extremely cold to others but trembles at the slight touch of a man, what could possibly be the reason for it? Other than sexual assault, I can't think of anything else..."

"As for how I know the incident happened eighteen years before, as I was born 18 years ago and you seem to hate me even before meeting me for the first time, putting all the conclusions I just guessed that something happened when I was born, by your earlier reactions, I, however, can conclude that it was on point."

"And at last, I peeked into your memories a bit."

Xia Tian said with a wink, his expression was nonchalant, as if he said something of no significance, but his words were saying something else.

Xia Shuiyao looked at Xia Tian with horror.

He is terrible, far more terrible than she can ever imagine.

The last line of peeking into her memories was naturally ignored by her due to the cunning trick of this old fox.

He used the word ' and ' instead of using ' but ', when you use the word ' and ' to join two sentences, the sentence said first is emphasized while if you use 'but' then the sentence later said will be emphasized.

At last, Xia Tian dropped the final bomb taking away the sanity of Xia Shuiyao.

"What if I give you that Zhang Wuhan? What can you give me in return?"

He naturally knows his name by her memories.

Xia Shuiyao opened her mouth unconsciously.

"Anything!! I will give you anything."

At this point, she was shaking, and a weird laugh escaped her mouth which she wasn't aware of.

"Hahhahaha....." Xia Tian's laugh echoed in her room.

"Anything, are you sure? Once you agree, I will not let you go ba-."

"Shut up and bring him to me!!!" Xia Shuiyao caught Xia Tian's collar even before he can finish his words and shouted.

Xia Tian instead of being angry smirked.

"Sure." He motioned his hands in the air and Evelynn appeared with the figure of a man in her hands.

Xia Shuiyao was so consumed with that figure she even ignored one of the biggest flaws, that Evelynn was following Xia Tian's orders.

Naturally, the figure was of the man who assaulted her.

His name is Zhang Wuhan.

Zhang Wuhan is the Patriarch of the Zhang clan, he assaulted Xia Shuiyao 18 years ago at the celebration party of Xia Tian's birth which was held by the Xia Family. All the big figures were invited and he was one of them.

Fortunately, she was saved by a mysterious expert before he can take the last step. [A/N: It was not Evelynn, she knew about what was happening but she was just too lazy to bother with it.]

But it does not mean she can forget how Zhang Wuhan's fingers were caressing over her body, how he was touching all over her, how he nearly took away her virginity, how he had given her such mental trauma, how she saw that disgusting face so close to her... she can't help but vomit thinking of it.

As a person who cherished her body a lot, it was a humiliation that she can never forget.

As for why Xia Shuiyao never told this to Xia Leng, it was simply because she does not want a standoff against the whole Zhang family because of herself.

She sacrificed herself for the sake of her family, but what did she get? No one, not even her own mother and father ever visited her room and tried to ask her or console her when she isolated herself.

Even if she does not tell them the reason at least they can come and console her, that was her expectation which she formed within herself.

It was unreasonable, she knew, but she can't help but had some expectations deep within her heart.

She wanted to be appreciated, acknowledged, and loved as any other normal person would.

Naturally, nothing like that happened.

It is rightfully said, It's always your expectations that will betray you.

She felt betrayed when her expectations were not met. She started being cold to everyone that included Xia Leng and Long Wanhui.

She hated Xia Tian because there would never be any party, to begin with, if he wasn't born, then there would have never been such an accident.

And now seeing the face of Zhang Wuhan who made her like this, she can't control herself and wanted to tear him to shreds.

She won't normally be this emotional but this was all result of a simulation by Xia Tian.

Xia Shuiyao looked at Xia Tian with pleading eyes.

She does not care about her cold persona or her self-respect anymore.

"Please..." She begged him.

Xia Tian naturally understood her actions. He motioned Evelynn to release his binds after sealing away his cultivation.

*Bam*

Zhang Wuhan's body fell to the ground waking up from his stupor.

But before he can think of anything else, someone jumped on him and started hitting him like a monster.

Evelynn formed a barrier to isolate Xia Shuiyao and Zhang Wuhan, afterwards, she moved next to Xia Tian.

Inside the barrier screams and howling of man was echoing.

However, outside the barrier completely different scene was happening.

Xia Tian was laying on Evelynn lap, enjoying the feeling of her thighs as she was feeding him some fruits.

"Are you coming out or not?" Xia Tian stated calmly looking at a blank space.

Soon, a figure came out of thin air. It was the immortal who saved Xia Shuiyao 18 years ago.

It was a figure of a girl. She immediately got to her knees surprising both Evelynn and Xia Tian at the same time.

"This humble servant greets your Excellency and Immortal Evelynn."

[A/N: Immortals who are not aware of the Void realm just think of Void realm experts as nothing but as other Immortal who are much more powerful than them.]

Xia Tian raised an eyebrow, he looked at the figure in from if him weirdly, he can't remember having a servant like her.

"Stand up and tell me who are you. And why were you after Xia Shuiyao?" He spoke.

Evelynn was aware of the presence of this little girl from 18 years ago, but as long as she did nothing against Xia Tian, Evelynn naturally won't bother.

This girl had the cultivation of the divine overlord realm which was enough to even trouble the divine emperor but compared to void realm experts, they are just a speck of dust.

The girl raised her face and looked at Xia Tian with respect. "This humble one is a servant of Immortal Isabelle."

Xia Tian looked interested after listening to Isabelle's name.

No one noticed his facial expressions, else they would have noticed that his smile got wider on Isabelle's name.

He told her to continue.

After a while, he ultimately understood what was happening.

Isabelle sends her to find women in the mortal realm for him, Isabelle's orders were simple just observe the women who can meet Xia Tian's standards and when she asks, take them to her.

This girl first arrived at the sacred sky jade realm and found Xia Shuiyao, She was observing her for 44 years which is from the moment she was born. Her special body was the one that attracted her attention. This is also the reason she protected Xia Shuiyao from Zhang Wuhan.

As for how she knew Xia Tian, Isabella simply did not want a cliche scene of her servant confronting Xia Tian due to her not being able to recognize him, so she showed Xia Tian and all her sister faces to her servants, including the usual disguise which is used by them.

Xia Tian nodded at her explanation. "Hmm, that's is fine, you can go and tell her to withdraw all of her other servants. And yea, take care of this Zhang Wuhan's disappearance, seeing your cultivation, you must have a high status in the divine realm, it should not be much hard for you."

With the son of destiny around him, there are many more interesting things to do. Isabelle might spoil his fun, therefore he told her to withdraw all her servants.

The girl nodded and left. She did not ask a single question.

The reason was simple, she remembered the words of her master, "If you see this man, forget who I am, he will be your master, whatever he says you will do it and if you see those bitches, just avoid contacting them until they contact you."

Of course, she didn't dare to imitate her master and call Evelynn a bitch.

"Xia Chen was originally fated to meet Xia Shuiyao, doesn't it means he would die at Isabelle's hands if I had not interfered with the plot?" Xia Tian thought inwardly.

All the son of destiny has a purpose and after fulfilling it they are disposed of by the world.

What is a better way of disposing them, other than by antagonizing them against a void realm expert?

Son of destinies can never reach the void realm using their cheats, as destiny authority is limited to the Divine overlord realm that is till the peak of the Immortal realm.

As for any Son of Destiny transcending by normal means and becoming a Void realm expert... it is impossible.

They did not have what it takes to become a void realm expert.

Thinking of destiny Xia Tian could not help but smirk inwardly, he had already thought about what to do with destiny itself, Hahaha...

If anyone heard Xia Tian, they would go insane, this person is thinking of playing his games with destiny.

Destiny the creation of God which maintains the balance of the universe.

Inside the barrier.

"Haaa, haaa..." Xia Shuiyao was breathing heavily.

Her chest moved up and down every time she panted. Her neckline was covered in sweat making her look extremely seductive.

Zhang Wuhan's bloodied body was lying in front of her.

The body of the overlord realm cultivator is really durable.

Even after all this torture, Zhang Wuhan was still alive.

Xia Shuiyao raised her hand.

She wanted to use a large amount of qi to deal one final blow.

But before she can put her plan into action, the barrier around her disappeared along with the figure of Zhang Wuhan.

"This was not our deal!!"

She instantly turned and exclaimed only to be greeted by the calm voice of Xia Tian.

"I told you, I would give him to you, but I never remember saying in which state I would hand over him to you. You should already be thankful to me."

Then, he threw away a gemstone at her which she caught in her hands. "His body is trapped inside this stone, you can destroy this stone once you are strong enough to kill an overlord realm expert."

With this Zhang Wuhan's death was set in stone.

Xia Shuiyao kept the stone in her spacial ring, she can't help but stare at Xia Tian angrily who was grinning evilly, as if his play was successful.

She was played by him, she is well aware of it.

She took some deep breaths to calm down herself, Evelynn has already disappeared, and Xia Tian was in no mood to disturb Xia Shuiyao.

She is already trapped.

Xia Tian faced her calmly. "Now it's time for your end of deal S-I-S-T-E-R."

"I gave you an immortal cultivation technique, I will also not tell about earlier matters to father, not to forget I handed over Zhang Wuhan to you."

Xia Shuiyao was not the person to escape from her words.

"What do I have to do?"

She also confronted Xia Tian, but this time, her face was only cold with no hostility.

She does not want to be hostile to someone like Xia Tian at all.

"Oh it is quite simple, I want you."

"Pay by your body." Xia Tian said shamelessly.

Surprisingly, Xia Shuiyao was not much shocked by his shameless words.

"We are bother and sister." She said with a plain tone, just reminding him.

Her sapphire eyes were staring at his face.

After venting out on Zhang Wuhan, her mind was clear and she was able to think normally... All the things that he did with her till now were anything but what a brother would do.

She was already suspicious of his motives but now after hearing from his own mouth, she is sure this is what he wanted, from the very beginning.

Now, she feels like she fell into the hands of an even bigger monster, that cowardly nature of his was just a sham, he was a monster inside.

She wanted to cry at her terrible fate but now is not the time for it.

For a woman like her words are absolute.

Since she had said she will do anything, it means she would do anything, even if it was just on impulse.

Xia Tian sneered. "Do I look like someone who cares?"

"No." She shook her head at him, then she asked.

"What if I deny?"

"You can deny but then I will be forced to use violent measures. After all, I always make sure to collect my debts." Xia Tian laughed, he then extended his hands and caught her in a hug.

Xia Shuiyao showed no intention of fighting as if already surrendering her to fate.

"There is no need to use force."

Xia Shuiyao said and removed her clothes by herself, making her naked figure visible to Xia Tian's eyes.

Little did she knew, by violent methods Xia Tian mean something entirely different, if she denied Xia Tian, he would just kill her and extract her soul out and take away what he wants.

"But remember you will never get my heart."

Xia Shuiyao uttered her last sentence before removing the last piece of cloth from her body.

Listening to her words Xia Tian could not help but glance at her beautiful face strangely.

"Are you dumb?"
