"I didn't expect this dark fortress to also fall into your hands, Old Tian." Han Shuo said as he repeatedly nodded, mainly since all cultivators had hunted the Dark Race for so long after the war in the past, for they wanted to capture Estella, wanting to own the Fortress for their sake.
On the other hand, Bai Zhongying felt confused about the Fortress, especially since it didn't look that big. However, Xia Tian tells her that his women live in it, which makes her unable to believe it.
Xia Tian laughed at her reaction. "You don't need to feel confused, and you will know everything as soon as you enter it."
"Actually, this Fortress is huge, and inside is like another world. However, Old Tian can adjust its size as big or small as he likes, so he can hide it easily." Ren Yao explained to her.
Bai Zhongying nodded in understanding and glanced at Xia Tian in awe. 'Sigh! After all, he is a reincarnator, so I shouldn't be surprised if he can obtain such a Fortress. Moreover, the people beside him are also powerful and loyal to him.'
"Let's go in." Xia Tian then activated the portal and brought the four of them inside.
Instantly, Bai Zhongying went into a daze after she saw the inside of the Fortress. Although Ren Yao had already explained that its interior was like another world, she did not expect that it was so vast. Its inner area was several times larger than the Bai Kingdom.
As for Bai Zhixian, she was no longer surprised by it, for she had lived in the Fortress for quite a while.
"Haha." Ren Yao laughed heartily at Bai Zhongying's expression. "Little missy, you don't need to be shocked like this. In fact, this Fortress isn't that big, and there is a mobile fortress which several times bigger than this."
Bai Zhongying turned to Ren Yao in surprise. "Is that true? In that case, that moving Fortress must be bigger than this Seven Star World, right?"
"Yes." Ren Yao nodded to her. "That moving fortress is much bigger than this world, but I can't confirm the huge difference between the two."
Xia Tian then said. "Zhongying, you can see the vast difference between the lower and higher realms in the future, and the Holy Five Land is much bigger than this Seven Star World. In fact, a province there is already three times the size of this world, so you can imagine the size of that place as a whole."
Bai Zhongying turned to Xia Tian and stared at him with her mouth open, for she was utterly shocked to hear how vast the Five Holy Land was.
Seeing that, Xia Tian chuckled; he lifted Bai Zhongyin's chin and closed her mouth, making her face turn red.
"Let's go to the residential area; my women await us there." Xia Tian said as he led them, but they didn't fly there, for he wanted to show every area in the Fortress to Bai Zhongying, which amazed her even more.
Suddenly, Bai Zhongying moved and hid behind Xia Tian, especially after Fuli and Qimao appeared in front of them. Their appearances and auras made her really scared. "What the hell with those two beasts? Why are their looks and aura so terrible?"
Bai Zhixian chuckled at her big sister's reaction. Yet, she was the same when she saw the two dark beasts for the first time, especially since they were both terrifying.
"Hahaha!" Han Shuo guffawed. "Little missy, they are dark beasts whose appearance and aura are just like that. However, it is only natural for you to be frightened by them, especially since no such beasts exist in this lower realm."
"En." Bai Zhongying nodded repeatedly. "Then how can you tame them, Xia Tian?"
Xia Tian smirked faintly and glared at the two beasts, making their bodies tremble. "What else? I beat them almost to death, or else they would never submit to me, especially since those dark beasts were so arrogant, and they only obeyed Estella, the Dark Queen."
The two men laughed after hearing his words; Ren Yao then patted Xia Tian on the shoulder. "You really haven't changed, Old Tian. I can still clearly remember when you beat that water dragon back then, he even whined and kept begging you to spare him."
"That's true." Han Shuo nodded in agreement. "Moreover, Ling was no less aggressive than Old Tian, and she kept piercing the water dragon's entire body with the Qingfeng Sword, which made his blood flood the ocean."
On the other hand, Bai Zhongying was speechless listening to their conversation; she had never seen a dragon before. But now, she heard that Xia Tian once beat up a water dragon and made him act like that.
"You can ignore them." Xia Tian said as he pulled Bai Zhongying to his side.
After they passed through several areas, they finally arrived at a residential area by the river, and Bai Zhongying's eyes lit up after seeing that place. "Wow! This place is wonderful!"
"Tian? Why did you come back suddenly?" Xiang Yin suddenly asked as she and Xia Ning walked over to them.
Seeing the two of them, Xia Tia immediately hugged their waists and kissed their lips in turn, making the two best friends laugh wryly. "Where are the others? Why are there only the two of you here?"
"Sister Meng and the other two are tending the herb fields, Yuexin is sleeping at her house after she's trained so hard all day, and the others still haven't come out of their seclusion."
Xia Tian nodded in understanding and was very satisfied with their persistence, especially since he wanted to go to a higher realm soon, and they had to become strong first. "His name is Han Shuo, and he is my first cultivation brother. Old Hao, they are Xia Ning and Xiang Yin."
"Ha ha ha." Han Shuo laughed and cupped his hands at them. "Nice to meet you two, sisters-in-law."
Xiang Yin and Xia Ning were stunned to see Han Shuo's casual attitude. In fact, he was far more humble than the cultivators they had known so far, even though his status was much higher than theirs.
"Hehe." Xia Tian chuckled at their reactions. "You don't need to be surprised by his attitude, Old Hao is always like this."
"I see." The two women nodded in understanding.
Xia Tian then said to Xia Ning. "Old Hao has items that can upgrade your spiritual roots, and I want him to use them on you and Zhixian."
"Huh?" Xia Ning was shocked upon hearing that. However, she remembered that Xia Tian had told her that one's spiritual roots could be upgraded. Yet, she didn't expect that her chance would come so quickly. Moreover, she was among the weakest of all her sisters, so she really wished for that. "Is that true, Tian?"
"That's right, Ning'er." Xia Tian replied with a nod. "However, the spiritual upgrading process is painful. Are you sure you can handle it?"
"Yes!" Unlike Bai Zhixian, Xia Ning is unafraid to face her pain, wanting to be strong like her sisters. "No matter how painful the process is, I will definitely be able to deal with it."
"You really are amazing, Sister-in-law." Han Shuo said as he gave her a thumbs up. "Your mindset and determination are admirable, and I'm really proud to have a sister-in-law like you!"
On the other hand, Bai Zhixian pouted her lips in annoyance after hearing that, and she then said. "All right! I also don't care about the pain anymore, so we can start the process now."
Bai Zhongying shook her head at her second sister's behavior. However, she knew that Bai Zhixian was offended by Han Shuo's words to Xia Ning, so she decided that way.
Xia Tian nodded to them, pulled Bai Zhixian and Xia Ning to come with him, and said to Xiang Yin. "Xiang'er, it would be better if you didn't see the process."
ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm "No." Xiang Yin shook her head at him and stretched out her hand, and white energy appeared on her palm. "After all, I have strong light energy, so I can help you if anything unexpected happens to the process."
Suddenly, Han Shuo took out two weapons and handed them to Xiang Yin and Xia Ning, shocking them. "Both sisters-in-law, these two weapons are perfectly suited to your elements, so I'm giving them to both of you as gifts from our first meeting. I hope you two won't refuse my gifts."
"You two can accept them, and we'll start the process after this." After saying that, Xia Tian immediately led them into one of the houses, and the two women quickly stored their new weapons in their storage rings.
At first, Bai Zhongying didn't want to watch the process. Yet, she finally decided to come with them, wanting to accompany her second sister.
Once they arrived inside, Han Shuo asked the two women to lie on the bed, and he quickly retrieved several items from his storage ring. "Anyway, I have to prepare everything first, and we'll start right after, so you guys can prepare yourselves to deal with the pain later."
"Yes!" The two women answered Han Shuo in unison.
Xia Ning looks ready to go through the process, but on the other hand, Bai Zhixian still looks anxious, for she is still afraid to go through it.
