Xia Tian saw her figure slowly drooping down, he wasn't panicked but smiled faintly.
Ye Suyin cried silently.
She was waiting for someone to come and console her.
But no one did.
Li Nan only glanced at her figure once, facing the sharp gaze of Xia Tian she was forced back inside.
After ten minutes, Xia Tian opened his mouth and spoke.
"Suyin, Do you think you love me?"
His words made Ye Suyin lift her head and stare at him.
Usually, she would think a lot, but now she just unconsciously nodded her head.
Seeing it Xia Tian's lips curled in a smile.
"Wrong! You love your brother and not me..." he quietly spoke.
"!!"
Ye Suyin's eyes opened wide at his words. She wanted to deny it, but soon something changed.
The shadow of Xia Tian was slowly changing it was transforming into her dead brother... It was changing... And it was not Xia Tian who was doing it...
Ye Suyin realized she was the one who was doing it.
She was the one who was casting the illusion on herself.
Just a few hours were never enough for her to trust Xia Tian to this extent, even with her ability.
It was she, who presumed Xia Tian to be her brother's replacement. She saw his shadow in Xia Tian's figure.
"N-No," she uttered lightly, while her body was trembling slowly.
She was trying to deny reality, yet another defense mechanism of the human mind.
If you have ever been to the graveyard, then you will be aware of it.
[A/N: Recently, I got there for a few days for observing various people's attitudes toward death. My way of enjoying holidays.]
This mostly happens when a very close person to you dies, we deny the reality and if someone reminds us of it, we will shout and yell; Shut up! He is still alive!
Ye Suyin's aura got heavier, her eyes shook as she looked at Xia Tian.
The spiritual energy near her was growing rampant.
"What are you doing!?" Li Nan shouted from above.
If it goes like this, the flying ship will be destroyed.
Xia Tian ignored her.
Li Nan wanted to step in, but a barrier stopped her in her tracks.
Finally, she grumbled and got inside.
She would make Xia Tian pay for her flying ship!
Ye Suyin's cultivation was going rampant, the space around her was changing every moment, while the man in front of her calmly stood watching her like a precious piece of sculpture crafted by heaven.
After a while, Ye Suyin's eyes quietly stared at the man in front of her.
"You are lying..." she spoke.
Her voice sounded like a whisper, but on her words, Xia Tian chuckled.
"What do you think? Tell me what do you see, when you look at me? Me or your brother?"
"...Am I lying?"
Each and every question of the man sounded like a bolt of thunder in the woman's mind.
She was lying to herself.
Xia Tian never wanted a woman to think about another person while making love to her, so the first thing he had to solve was this problem.
He can directly tell her, but in these cases type of cases it makes the woman lose her mind, and she will go to extreme measures to defend her belief.
The best way for her was self-realization.
Ye Suyin's expression turned ugly, the woman who thought lies are bad was lying to herself today.
Before she can lose control, a voice sounded in her ears again.
"You don't need to think much, it is quite normal."
Xia Tian's words made her tilt her head.
"It is normal...?" she spoke.
Xia Tian nodded. "Indeed, it is. My personality just matched that brother of yours, so you related me to him in your mind. This is why you behaved with me the same way you will behave will your brother..."
His words made Ye Suyin stand on her feet slowly.
She closed her eyes as a reflective look appeared on her face.
The process she was going through is transference.
Often, we have an experience with a certain person in childhood, and when we encounter another person further in life with similar personality traits, we will unconsciously relate the second person to the first one.
We will behave with the second person the same way we will behave towards the first one.
Let's say, you have a father who always pointed a finger at you and yells, which led to you feeling very disappointed in yourself.
Then, you grow up and go to a workplace, where you encounter a boss. He also points a finger at you and yells, the same way as your father.
Unconsciously you are reminded of your father, most of the time you will not be aware of it as if happens inside of your mind.
Then, you will react toward your boss the same way, you reacted toward your father, and you will feel disappointed in yourself.
Your performance and self-esteem will decrease in the workplace.
This can work in another way as well, many times we meet many people in life, with whom we share increased intimacy despite having no common traits and habits.
Ask yourself ... Are you sharing increased intimacy with that person due to him or due to any other reason?
Maybe because she had some resemblance with certain someone you know, like the way she sits or talks corresponds with your mother...
There can be any reason for it.
Ye Suyin's trust in Xia Tian was much high, all due to her brother's shadow on him.
After a while, the girl opened her eyes again.
"Will you leave me?"
She asked a single question. Her voice was dim yet clear.
She had arrived at decision; Xia Tian is not her brother.
But she does not want him to leave her either.
She doesn't want to part anymore.
Xia Tian laughed at her silly question.
"I don't take orders from anyone."
His words were understood by Ye Suyin in a different light.
The old fox way of speaking is quite profound.
He can speak his mind out, at the same time letting other person perceive a completely different meaning of it.
Ye Suyin smiled faintly.
Her aura has long faded away.
She approached Xia Tian with steady steps and wrapped her arms around him.
"Don't leave me..." she whispered, completely contrary to what she was saying a few moments before.
Xia Tian similarly hugged her.
His gaze fell onto her breasts. 'This woman's assets are quite big.'
They shared an intimate hug for a minute.
Ye Suyin doesn't want revenge anymore.
She does not want her brother anymore.
He is gone and nothing will change it.
All she wants is to not lose the person in front of her now.
For her whole life, she was surrounded by liars, and Xia Tian does not lie to her.
She doesn't want to lose him.
The girl was unaware, that many times the truth spoken by him was disregarded as a lie by her.
Like how, he accepted killing her brother, which she thought was a lie.
So, Xia Tian indeed is not lying to this girl.
He is slowly playing with her... Without any Hurry...
He is savoring her...
He is enjoying his toys, and the smile on his face is the very evidence of it.
"Little fairy, open the rewards." Xia Tian spoke in his mind.
{Mission Completed!
Mission: Win Ye Suyin's heart
Rewards:-
Primal Chao Body x1
God Killing poison x1
Thousand Poison Scripture x1...}
Seeing the rewards, Xia Tian wasn't much excited.
God-killing poison can be used to kill immortals, it directly harms one's soul but for him, it has no utility.
Though, the primal chaos body was something interesting...
[Primal Chao Body: An ancient body type created by the primordial demon herself. It can grant the user ability to manipulate and use the primordial elements in the air.]
'Primordial elements... The elements in their purest form...' Xia Tian whispered to himself.
Even in the void realm, controlling primordial elements require a huge amount of sacrifice.
Now, as a God, it should not be a big deal to him. Nonetheless, he will accept it.
But this also confirmed Xia Tian's earlier beliefs. Fighting against a primordial being was idiocy, their power and comprehension of elements is just another level, which no cultivator can ever compare.
His body glowed lightly accumulating the primal chaos physique.

Seeing his status Luo Xue frowned lightly, 'Ye Suyin is understandable... Why is Li Nan on the list.'
The fairy was unaware, that Xia Tian can add any woman as his toy, it is up to his wish.
Another change that Destiny has to incorporate into the system.
After a moment, Ye Suyin was ready to separate herself from him, but suddenly unfamiliar information flowed into her mind.
She lifted her face and glanced at Xia Tian.
"??"
"It's Thousand poison scripture. This cultivation technique will help you to regulate your special body type," Xia Tian said while smiling gently.
Listening to him, Ye Suyin's eyes flickered.
"... my sudden increase in cultivation is a due to my body?" she asked softly.
Xia Tian nodded.
It was indeed due to her body, he should be poisoned due to her body while dual cultivating, removing the poison was no big deal but then a certain Destiny has to pay the price.
Destiny spared no efforts to please her new master.
So she forcefully awakened Ye Suyin's dormant physique, which explains her increase in cultivation.
"But this cultivation technique looks too ancient. It must be your family secret, you can't casually give it to me..."
Ye Suyin felt quite worried about receiving such precious treasure. She felt Xia Tian was being unreasonable.
Xia Tian lightly chuckled, "This cultivation technique means nothing to me compared to your worth..."
His words were true for him, his toy was far more important to him.
But the woman again misunderstood his intentions.
Ye Suyin did not ask more.
She was never much of a talker.
She felt touched by Xia Tian's care.
She slowly leaned forward and kissed Xia Tian on his lips.
Luo Xue was left speechless by Xia Tian's shamelessness, he got the cultivation technique for free, and still took credit for it by tricking the innocent girl.
'Sigh... Master is too shameless,' she can only think in her heart.
After a while, both separated their lips.
Ye Suyin was lovingly looking at Xia Tian, her meaning was clear.
She wanted to be loved.
Xia Tian extended his hands and gently caressed her face.
"Go and first learn the cultivation technique..."
Ye Suyin was slightly disappointed but she followed.
It was not that Xia Tian was a saint, he just had another toy to play with.
After Ye Suyin disappeared, he glanced in a certain direction and spoke.
"Aren't you coming out?"
