"Estella, swallow them." Xia Tian threw the Healing Pill and Energy Recovery Liquor at him. "The pill can help you heal your old injuries, and the liquor will restore your energy."
Hearing that, Estella unhesitatingly carried out his order, especially since she remembered that Long Tian was a skilled alchemist in the past. Moreover, he was also the personal disciple of the Alchemist God. Sure enough, her energy was quickly replenished, and she could also feel the slight change in her old injury.
Xia Tian chuckled at Estella's expression; he then turned to the Yan Sisters, it was obvious that they had already resigned themselves to their fate, especially after learning that Estella's slave mark could not be removed from their souls. "What are you two planning now? Even though you two are Estella's slaves now, I will not forbid you to return to your places, nor will she control you guys anymore without my orders."
"Master, in that case, let Chenyu return to our sect first to disband it, and I will stay here to serve you." Yan Qiangying said in a soft voice. Since she already knew that Xia Tian was Estella's master, she also acknowledged him as her master.
Yan Chenyu then also said. "After I disband our sect, I will return to your side, Master."
Alice burst out laughing hearing that, and she then teased Xia Tian. [Hahaha! Master, you must be happy to get three new slaves, right? Although the Yan Sisters' cultivation was unstable because they increased it by force, you can help stabilize it, and they will also be able to help you in the future. As for Estella, you only need to let Yue treat her; then her injuries will quickly recover and her cultivation will return, and she can protect you and the others.]
'Stupid, Alice!' Xia Tian could only curse and shake his. "Well, it's fine with me if you guys do want to stay by my side, but I'm staying in Star Moon Sect for the time being. However, I will be rebuilding the buildings inside this fortress later, so you guys can live with my other women in this place in the future."
"All right, we will follow your plan, master." the Yan Sisters answered in unison.
'Sigh, I don't know if I can accept him, even though I'm already attracted to him, but the women by his side are too many, and even the Yan Sisters can be said to be his women now.' Feng Xian'er muttered in her heart as she listened to their conversation.
"Xia Tian, thank you for saving me; if it wasn't for you, then I would be their prisoner for the rest of my life." Gao Lan said so gratefully. Fortunately, Xia Tian had her memory slightly altered by removing the negative memories of her dual cultivating with Ling Xin, or she would not be able to return to normal.
However, apart from Xia Tian and Murong Mengxin, no one else knew that there was a slave mark embedded within her soul. If Mo Xiaoqi absorbs Silvana's soul later, then Gao Lan will also become her slave.
Murong Mengxin smirked at hearing Gao Lan. 'Hey, you better not get excited just yet, because your life belongs to my husband, and I will teach Little Qi to control you later.'
Xia Tian just nodded to her. "You don't have to think about it, I just did what I had to do with them."
Meanwhile, the eyes of the other two women were fixed on Estella, and they continued to think of ways to kill her. Even so, Mei Yin also felt conflicted in her heart, especially since she knew that Xia Tian had many strong women by her side.
They were suddenly shocked by Xia Tian's cold words. "Both of you better throw away your plans to kill Estella. First and foremost, she is capable of easily killing you guys and destroying your sect. Second, even though she's only my slave, I won't stay silent if you guys have evil plans against her."
Mei Yin frowned at that, and Xiao Yuxi clenched her fists tightly. But before they could speak to him, Nalan Qing had already spoken to them via voice transmission. 'You guys better listen to Tian; he is a man of his word. If you insist on killing Estella, then the two of you will end up like the Leng and Luo main families.'
Hearing that, Mei Yin and Xiao Yuxi's hearts tightened; they still remembered the destruction of the two families.
"Anyway, there are a lot of people waiting for us outside, so let's head out now." Without waiting any further, Xia Tian immediately activated the fortress device, and it shook violently.
--------------------------------------
*Crumble*
"Why is this place shaking so much?" Yu Yunzhi and the others immediately flew away, but their eyes widened because the fortress suddenly floated up, and its size was getting smaller and smaller, before it completely disappeared from their sight, leaving dust covering the entire area.
"What the hell? Where is the ancient ruin?" Ding Yuan asked in shock, but neither of them had the answer.
'Sister!' Mei Yun called out in her heart as she clenched her fists tightly.
Suddenly, they were surprised by the appearance of people who had just left the fortress.
"Cough!" Xia Tian immediately waved his hand to remove all the dust that was scattered in the air. With a playful smile, he looked up into the sky and asked Yu Yunzhi. "Did you come here because you were worried about us?"
"Sister!" It was Mei Yun who shouted first as she flew swiftly toward Mei Yin and hugged her. "Thank goodness you're okay; I was really scared to lose you."
"Sigh, if it wasn't for Xia Tian, I and the others would have died inside, Sis." Mei Yin said as she hugged her twin sister back; even though she was still mad at him about Estella, she had to admit that he was the one who saved them.
Mei Yun immediately released her twin sister from his embrace and turned to face her, but Xia Tian simply shook his head and smiled, and she brought Mei Yin and Xiao Yuxi to leave the place afterward.
After that, Yu Yunzhi and the others landed before them. "Are you guys all right?"
"Well, a lot of trouble happened inside, but we're fine now, and they weren't hurt one bit either." Xia Tian casually replied as he pointed at Feng Xian'er, Qin Qing, and Situ Meiqi.
'Has she been crying? Why are her eyes swollen like that?' Yu Yunzhi wondered in her heart after she saw Qin Qing, and she raised her eyebrows looking at Estella who was standing beside Nalan Qing. "Who is that woman, Xia Tian? Why is she with you guys?"
"Just ignore her; she's not important." Xia Tian replied with a chuckle; he didn't want to talk about Estella in front of the people from the sect, especially Ding Yuan and his entourage.
Hearing that, Estella snorted in annoyance, and she could only grumble in her heart.
"Then how did the ruins disappear?" Yu Yunzhi curiously asked.
"Yawn." Xia Tian just yawned and stretched his hands, then he sent a voice transmission to her. 'If you want to know about it, then you have to accompany me tonight.'
"Humph!" Yu Yunzhi snorted and blushed at his words, she didn't reply to Xia Tian and took out her flying artifact, then she boarded it. "Let's go back to the sect."
Liu Tao and the elders exchanged glances briefly; they were confused by Yu Yunzhi, who suddenly got angry, and they immediately followed him. Qin Qing and Situ Meiqi also boarded their sect's flying artifact, and they immediately flew away from the area.
However, Feng Xian'er stayed behind and waited for Xia Tian because she still wanted to talk to him about many things.
Xia Tian turned to Murong Mengxin and Dugu Yan. "Are you guys going back to using the returning jade?"
"Yes, since our flying artifact is in Song Ming's hands, and he is dead now, we will return to using returning jade to save time." Murong Mengxin replied as she and Dugu Yan took out their returning jades.
"All right." Xia Tian nodded in agreement, and they immediately broke their returning jade.
"Young Master Xia, I will also use the returning jade again, and I will let Quexian be with you for a while." Without waiting for Xia Tian's reply, Fan Youling immediately broke her returning jade.
"Let's go back too." Xia Tian immediately took out his flying artifact and took Nalan Qing and Feng Xian'er on board; the Yan Sisters and Estella also followed them, and the flying artifact immediately shot away.
"What exactly happened inside, Gao Lan?" Ding Yuan asked after they all left.
However, Gao Lan shook her head at him. "Ding Yuan, I don't know exactly what happened inside; I was controlled by the cultivator inside, and when I woke up, everything was already finished."
"Then how did the ancient ruin disappear?" It was Duan Yong who asked.
"I don't know anything." Since Xia Tian had saved his life, she didn't want to tell them that he was the owner of the ancient ruin now.
When they turned towards Hua Shitian, he simply shook his head at them, then he left the place using the returning jade as well.
In the end, Ding Yuan and the others couldn't help but sigh, and they also quickly returned to their sects.
