The Psychopath's Harem

Two days passed...

In this period, Li Nan was taught the sacred dao of dual cultivation in its full brilliance. The woman was made to appreciate the beauty of all the positions, which can help a cultivator to go further in its path of cultivation and raise to the top.

She was forced to think; how can so many positions even exist in this world?

The woman was unaware of a certain ancient scripture that Xia Tian has written exploring the demonic dao [A/N: Kamasutra reference]

Yet, after one and a half day, the woman got tired and fainted.

"Umm...." Li Nan's eyes flickered softly as she woke up.

She looked around herself, and her hand touched something soft, she inspected it lightly to find, she was on the bed along with Xia Tian sleeping next to him.

Instantly, memories of the previous two days rushed to her mind.

Her expression turned ugly.

With caution, she stepped out of the bed, she quickly took out new pair of clothes and wore it.

Her body has naturally healed itself, due to sound sleep.

Afterward, with a serious look, she got near the edge of the bed, where Xia Tian was sleeping soundly.

Her sight landed on his face, seeing it she can't help but narrow her eyes and think.

'How can this monster have an innocent face? Why is he so carefree? Don't he fear me?'

The hand of Li Nan flashed with white light, then a knife appeared in her hand.

'This is my only chance...' she thought and raised her hand moving it near his neck.

The knife shined with profound green energy, Li Nan channeled her complete power to make sure, he isn't alive after this.

Her hands quivered when the blade was near his skin, Li Nan stopped for a moment and took a deep breath to calm her nervousness.

Ten seconds passed, and Li Nan did not move.

She closed her eyes and sighed.

Then, she opened her eyes again with a determined look.

"I don't have a whole day."

"!!"

Xia Tian suddenly opened his eyes and said making the woman leap backward.

'What' Li Nan was panicked beyond words, her eyes bulged out of her sockets.

Xia Tian ignored her startled face, he lifted his upper body and stretched his hands, then he glanced at her startled figure and smiled.

"In these ten seconds, I could have killed you in thousand different ways."

His voice mocked the woman, but she instead of refusing his words stepped back with a cautious look.

Silence descended on the whole place...

" _ "

" _ "

Two pairs of eyes stared at each other without blinking, the first one was amused while the latter one was slightly cautious and serious.

*Clank*

Soon, Li Nan threw away the knife, and she glimpsed at Xia Tian with a complicated look, after a deep breath she parted her lips and let out a voice.

"Don't come in front of me again."

She seriously said and disappeared.

Since, he was awake, escaping from here was the best option, as for killing him... Li Nan believes she isn't competent enough... At least not now.

She did not forget the look in his eyes. He was playing with her, his smile mocked her, while he looked at her like a toy, something which amuses him.

He did kill her because he never thought of her as a threat...

She felt this humiliation was even greater than her prior shameful experience, she can't even believe that she was shaking her hips above him for two days completely lost in lust.

This was too much for her.

Once, she was gone Xia Tian clicked his tongue in annoyance.

"Tsk-Tsk, When did I start taking orders from my toys..." he lightly spoke as if stating a fact.

This woman was amusing.

Still, keeping a tough front?

Does this woman believes, he would just leave her alone because she left?

He owns his toys, his toys don't own him!

He decides when to play and when not!

Xia Tian could have made a cliche scene of forcefully kissing her right now before she disappeared.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

This would make it easy for her to fall for him in the future.

But he changed his mind at the last moment, he found her actions attractive, and he wonders what she will do when he will meet her next time.

Kissing her would make an anchor point in a woman's mind.

It was obvious Li Nan would not forget this incident, the memories of it will keep playing in her mind.

If he had proceeded with his earlier plans and kissed her, then whenever her memories of these two days will be triggered in her mind, it would end with the scene of him passionately kissing her.

First, she would get sad and angry, due to being forced by him into dual cultivation, then her memories would end with him kissing her, which would turn her whole mind upside down.

She would forget the shameful experience she had gone through and only remember the sweet taste of a lingering kiss, though she disliked it she won't be able to forget it.

The memories will keep playing over and over, the scenes will keep repeating over and over in her mind, and at last, she would be trapped even before she can realize it.

Her feelings would be too complicated.

She will be confused about whether he liked her or not.

Did he still remember her or forget about her?

Whether we deny it or not, one thing is true for all, we don't like being hated by someone, regardless of who is it.

Li Nan is the same.

With her complicated feelings, she would spend her next days only thinking about him, Long Tian's memories have long disappeared due to the necklace being shattered by him, so the only thing left in her mind will be him.

She would start missing Xia Tian's presence even before she knew it.

She would get angered at her own feelings.

Then all Xia Tian had to do next time is force her a bit, and next time she would willingly dual cultivate with him.

This is how many people are forever stuck in a toxic relationship.

You can treat your partner as trash for the whole day... But at end of the day, treat them gently and with care.

Your partner would forget being treated like trash and only remember the care you had shown in the last moments.

She would think you are a good person and care for her despite being earlier treated like trash.

With lingering hope of the same, she would not sever the relationship and come again the next day to only get treated like trash, but as a master manipulator, you will again pull out the same move as yesterday, and made her come back again.

This cycle would keep repeating, and the girl would be trapped long before she is aware of it.

She would be forever in a false belief that you care for her.

This works very well with a woman who never had seen the manipulative sides of men.

Sometimes a man can be more manipulative than a woman.

All the man has to do is treat the girl occasionally with care... Just make sure to do it at the end of the day, or when you notice that the woman is close to her limits... Never do it at beginning of day or it will backfire on you...

Treat her harshly the whole day and at the end take her to a loving candlelight dinner, and become a completely another person in her mind.

See the magic for yourself, the next day she would be waiting in front of your door with slight nervousness apparent on her face.

Xia Tian shrugged and shook his head.

He had played this plot a lot of times after forcing or tricking a woman.

This time he wanted something else.

[Master!]

Luo Xue suddenly screamed in his mind.

Xia Tian's expression changed upon hearing her voice, he had forgotten the existence of this little fairy.

If the fairy knew of this, she would have puked blood and died.

[Master, you are near the breakthrough! You should stabilize your cultivation as soon as possible. I can't contain the spiritual energy in your body anymore!]

Luo Xue said, after the recent fight with Li Nan, Xia Tian's peak spirit formation cultivation was near breaking through the next stage, after this, he should be entering the earth profound realm.

For others, it was a genius feat but Xia Tian ignored it.

He had five void realm protectors at his disposal, so why care about it, regardless Nyx who was observing his body appeared in her original look.

She shifts to her original look when no one is around.

"Why your body has two types of cultivation?' she asked with a bit of curiosity.

Her words were also heard by Luo Xue, 'Two types of cultivation?' she muttered in astonishment.

Indeed, there were question marks next to his cultivation.

'Does it mean master has another cultivation besides this? It is impossible!'

The fairy found it unbelievable.
