Chapter 516: The small aftermath!
As Li Jia spoke, she remembered something and spoke “Tian, from now on you should be careful in the sect.. because she is not the only one within this sect who is from the Coven of Black Hearts.”
“There are many other disciples, mingling among others…”
Zhao Tian’s gaze squinted upon hearing this “Now that I have killed her… they would think she probably went missing.”
“And they would surely get suspicious of me, as I was her final ‘prey’ before her disappearance.”
Li Jia nodded her head “Yeah…”
Zhao Tian’s eyes narrowed in thought ‘I can distinguish them by looking through their souls and detecting the evil energy from them just like I did with Xueyan.’
‘And if they are inner court disciples, I can kill them somewhat.’
‘But I can’t also rule out the possibility that someone who doesn’t use evil techniques could also be on the side of the Coven of Black Hearts.’
‘And there might be also someone from the Elders…’
His eyes flickered towards her “In the first place, why are evil cultivators inside the sect? Do they want to destroy the sect from in and out?”
Li Jia shook her head “I don’t know… she never told me anything about that.”
A soft sigh escaped Zhao Tian’s lips and he stood up “For now, you rest.”
He pulled the blood-stained mattress and stored it on his space ring intending to dispose it later.
Li Jia stood up from the bed, clutching the shirt she was wearing as a thoughtful frown crossed her face “Where is the… body, Tian?”
Stretching his arms, Zhao Tian walked to the window and opened it, letting the cool air breeze inside as the moonlight rushed in.
“I burned it.”
Eh?
Li Jia was dumbfounded as she came here as fast as she could from her room when she saw Zhao Tian and Li Xueyan entering Zhao Tian’s room together.
Taking a step closer to him, she looked out the window beside him, gazing at the serene moonlit landscape. “Are you… sad?” she asked hesitantly.
Zhao Tian rolled his eyes “Well.. I can’t deny that I was beginning to grow fond of her, but haah.. I didn’t expect things would take this turn.”
He cast his gaze upward, looking at the vast, star-filled sky, and for a moment, memories of his wives flickered through his mind.
A soft smile graced his lips as he thought of them. ‘It feels like I haven’t seen them in forever. Two more years until they come out of their seclusion.’
‘No… now that I think of it, it will be two years for them since they are inside the artifact, but I am spending most of my time outside the artifact.’
‘So with the time dilation… my estimation is, it would roughly be 3 years.’
With a smile on his face, he turned to her “And thank you, Jia.. you came to save me.”
Li Jia gave a nod “Hmm.. it’s just that I don’t want to be the reason for anyone’s death. I don’t think I can live with such guilt… That’s why I also tried to pull you away from her.”
“I also have to thank you, you finally removed the biggest burden from my life.”
“Though I was initially surprised that you actually killed an inner court disciple, after seeing your light elemental… I kind of understood that you are hiding your true power.”
Leaning on the window, Zhao Tian sighed in his heart “Something like that…”
As they stood there under the calm moonlight, Zhao Tian spoke “You better return to your room and change your clothes.”

Li Jia looked down at the shirt she was wearing and nodded her head “You also come with me to my room.”
Hm? Zhao Tian raised an eyebrow and Li Jia spoke “I mean.. it is blood and stuff here, how are you going to sleep here.”
A sigh escaped Zhao Tian’s lips and he shook his head “I have to clean it anyway, so I am going to do it right now.”
“And we can’t assign the servants from the sect to clean because I can’t explain the blood to them.”
She gave a thoughtful nod, glancing around at the dark stains still littering the floor and the faint scent of dried blood lingering in the room.
Zhao Tian made his way toward the door “Come on, I shall drop you ate your room.”
…
Standing at the front of her room, Li Jia pushed open the door and entered “Then, see you tomorrow, Tian… Good night.”
“Hm..”
As the door closed, Zhao Tian turned to look at the dormitory buildings. Standing from this open hallway, he could really see his room in the distance.
‘She walked all the way there with that pain…’
His eyes softened a little and he slowly walked through the lonely hallways, thinking about the things happened just now.
…
Standing on the doorstep, Zhao Tian looked at Fei Ziyu and Fei Lingxi who were cleaning the blood stains and bedsheet in the room.
After a few more minutes, Fei Lingxi approached Zhao Tian, who had been standing quietly by the door, gazing out into the empty expanse of the dormitories, lost in his thoughts.
“Master…” she called softly.
Zhao Tian turned to her and offered a faint smile. “Is it finished?”
With a graceful bow, Fei Lingxi nodded. “Yes, Master. We’ve cleaned all the blood, and I’ve perfumed the room as well.”
Zhao Tian pecked her lips as he entered his room and saw Fei Ziyu carefully spreading a fresh bedsheet over the mattress, smoothing it out with delicate care.
With a long, weary sigh, Zhao Tian removed his outer robes and changed into a simple pair of shorts.
He lay on the bed, sinking into the mattress with a subtle grimace.
As he closed his eyes, he made himself comfortable in the bed and waved his hand “You can leave…”
Eh?
Fei Ziyu and Fei Lingxi were quite confused as he was sleeping alone, usually, he sleeps with any of his women.
Obeying him, fei Lingxi bowed her head “Yes, master…”
Meanwhile, Fei Ziyu walked and sat beside him on the bed.
Her eyes quivered in concern and she leaned down whispering in his ear “Master, what happened… you are not your usual self.”
Zhao Tian’s eyes opened, catching her gaze for a moment before looking past her, as if deep in thought.
Fei Lingxi sighed in her heart as she also noticed something was wrong, but since she was his slave… she didn’t dare to raise her voice.
Fei Ziyu slowly lay beside him on the bed and Zhao Tian opened his eyes to look at her.
“Master.. and the blood we cleaned.”
However, seeing Fei Ziyu approach him with such genuine worry seemed to ease her own reluctance, and Fei Lingxi tentatively joined them, sitting on the other side of the bed, silently waiting for him to speak.
Looking at their concern, Zhao Tian smiled faintly “Come here, let me explain…”
…
After hearing his explanation, Fei Ziyu’s heart burned in fury”How dare she try to hurt you, Master…” she uttered hugging him tightly.
Fei Lingxi stayed silent lying on his other side.
With a soft sigh, Zhao Tian spoke “It’s strange,”
“I didn’t think I’d feel anything when it came to this. I’ve taken many lives, and I’m prepared to take many more if it means protecting those I care about. But this time… it feels different.”
Fei Lingxi’s eyes trembled upon hearing his words and her hands moved to the hem of her clothes as she began to remove them.
“Let’s not think about this anymore.. Master.”
As she removed her cloth, her supple boobs jiggled up, and a soft smile graced her lips “I.. don’t know how to comfort you with words.”
“So, use our bodies Master… to comfort you.”
