Chapter 268 Broaden your mind

Liang Tianye walked out of the tent he had been occupying with a satisfied expression on his face.

Inside the tent, four naked bodies lay in a clump together. These were the four women who had betrayed Huang Muyang. By now, the news about the massacre of everyone present there had spread and everyone was under the impression that these women were dead.

"Vice-Sect Master," Huo Wanren greeted Liang Tianye with a knowing look and a slight smirk.

Liang Tianye didn't reply. He looked around and saw that no one was within earshot and nodded at Huo Wanren to continue. But, he didn't stay idle. He walked away from the tent towards a nearby hill.

"Are you planning on silencing these women, Vice-Sect Master," Huo Wanren asked looking surreptiously at the tent. "After all, they did refuse your offer to join our sect. Now that they have outlived their use…"

"You are just thinking about things too narrowly. If you want to break through to the Nascent Soul realm, your mind should be broader. Do you think we will gain any advantage if we kill these women?" Liang Tianye asked raising his eyebrows.

Huo Wanren furrowed his brows and didn't speak immediately.

"By now, the Seven Clouds Sect and all the other sects will have noticed the broken soul lamps of all the people who were killed. Only five soul lamps will be left over. Even though Huang Muyang's body is dead, his soul lamp wouldn't have shattered yet because his Nascent Soul is not crushed yet. At most, his soul lamp will be flickering heavily," Liang Tianye said walking up the hill.

Huo Wanren followed behind him.

"Do you think that a sect like Seven Clouds Sect wouldn't have any artifact to track where the Nascent Soul of Huang Muyang is? They do. And they will do it soon. A Spirit Severance being is one of the foundations of the Seven Clouds Sect. Along with four Nascent Soul realm experts whose soul lamps hadn't been shattered yet, they will be obligated to track it. And the person who will track it will be another Spirit Severance being," Liang Tianye smirked.

"By letting these women go, we will make the Spirit Severance being that is sent out to track Huang Muyang's soul follow them. These women plan on escaping the continent altogether. I don't really care whether they accomplish it. All I care about is that they drag the Spirit Severance being sent out by the Seven Clouds Sect as far as possible from here," Liang Tianye smiled broadly.

"While the hunt is ongoing, the information about these four Nascent Soul experts betraying Huang Muyang will be passed back to the sect as well. This will also relieve the pressure on the mole we have placed there. With Huang Muyang's long-time companions betraying him, the sect wouldn't probe deeper into our mole," Liang Tianye turned to look at Huo Wanren with a critical look.

"Do you see how many advantages I gain from allowing these women to leave? Then tell me, why should I kill them for momentary pleasure? Was I disappointed that they didn't join our sect? I am. But, should I do something about it? Probably not."

"As a cultivator, you should not think about momentary gains and instant gratification for your jilted emotions. Take note of this as a pertinent lesson. The reason you still haven't touched the boundary of Nascent Soul realm is probably because of this."

"You have been at the peak of the Golden Core realm for a long time now. Your cultivation and martial arts have already reached the level required to break through. But, your mindset hasn't reached that level yet. Reflect on this, you might gain more benefits than you can imagine," Liang Tianye looked at Huo Wanren causing him to fall into deep thought.

Huo Wanren stood there for a long time trying to digest the pointers given to him by Liang Tianye. Liang Tianye didn't disturb him. He made his way back to the tent and looked inside. He could see the four women stirring.

"I think it is time for you to four to set off. If you are not joining our sect, then it is better if you leave this place as soon as possible," Liang Tianye said while stepping into the tent.

"How heartless! You truly are a demon!" Jian Youlan pouted at Liang Tianye and stood up from the bedroll that they had used last night. "You are driving us away after enjoying us. Isn't this really despicable?" Jian Youlong asked snarkily.

"I am not a righteous cultivator, Jian Youlong. You know it very well before coming into my bed. The only thing I care about is whether I gained gratification and whether I left you all senseless. I know the answer to that. So, you don't need to try to guilt me here," Liang Tianye snarked back.

"Hmmm, I can see that," Jian Youlan stretched showing off her ample body. "Still, do you need to drive us this quickly?"

Liang Tianye didn't reply. He could see that the other women had also risen by now. Cultivators were like that. Even small disturbances near them will alert their minds. Let alone a discussion where neither he nor Jian Youlan kept their voice low.

"If you lot plan to escape the continent, then you need to get a move on quickly," Liang Tianye shrugged. "By now, the Seven Clouds Sect will have reacted. They will be sending someone to track Huang Muyang's soul. This Nascent Soul you guys tortured last night and used it for your own amusement will spell your death, if that person catches up to you."

"Hmmph, don't deny that you didn't enjoy tormenting him as well. He deserved it anyway. We are just getting started on our revenge against him. We will make him regret jilting us for years to come," Jian Youlan spoke with venom in her voice.

"Yes, I really enjoyed the look of anguish on his face. His impotent anger made my heart soar. I didn't think I would enjoy tormenting him this much," another of Huang Muyang's concubines chimed in.

"I still haven't had my fill. Last night was only the start of his torment. We are going to make him regret ever humiliating us," another chimed in enthusiastically agreeing with the former two.

Only Su Xiaomao remained silent. She didn't speak much. But, Liang Tianye knew how much she enjoyed tormenting Huang Muyang very clearly. Last night, it wasn't Jian Youlan or the other two women who tormented Huang Muyang the most. It was this unassuming Su Xiaomao. She really relished humiliating Huang Muyang to an unhealthy extent.

Liang Tianye merely raised an eyebrow at the vengefulness of this group of women. He didn't really care about how badly Huang Muyang was going to be tormented. Compared to what Feng Feixuan would have done if she had been present last night, these women were tame. So, he didn't think much about this.

"I see you all have no intention of extracting the information from him and crushing his Nascent Soul immediately. Then, so be it. Who am I to come in-between you and your vengeance?" Liang Tianye smiled broadly causing the four women to smile at him.

"Moreover, I am not a saint either," Liang Tianye continued with a shrug. "But, I have to remind you that the Seven Clouds Sect will probably have techniques to track the Nascent Soul with the help of the soul lamp. So, you better get a move on quickly."

"Won't you protect us for the sake of our passion-filled night last night?" Jian Youlan asked perfunctorily while the four women got up and readied themselves.

"I can, if you will join our sect," Liang Tianye countered while squeezing Jian Youlan's breast shamelessly as she got dressed.

"Dream on, you pervert!" Jian Youlan batted his hands away.

But, Liang Tianye didn't even bat an eye and shifted to grope the ass of another of Huyang Muyang's concubines shamelessly. She moaned slightly before moving away from his hand.

"Stop it, you are delaying us," Jian Youlan pouted seeing Liang Tianye trying to kiss and play with Su Xiaomao's tits.

Liang Tianye moved a step back with a broad smile. He didn't look apologetic for one second. Seeing his perverted gaze still raking over their bodies hungrily, Jian Youlan's back straightened unconsciously. She showed him her best profile before bidding him goodbye.

"If you manage to get out of the madness your sect is keen on inflicting, come find us in the Heavenly Dance continent," Jiang Youlan smiled broadly at Liang Tianye. "We can see if you can last another night with us sisters."

"As far as I remember, it was you four who lost last night against me," Liang Tianye smirked in reply.

"Hmmph," Jian Youlan harrumphed and began to sashay her way out of the tent.

Her sisters too followed her. However, they took their time to give a lingering kiss to Liang Tianye on their way out. Liang Tianye followed them out and found Huo Wanren waiting to the side and looking at them hungrily. He smirked but didn't say anything else.

Within moments, the four sisters vanished into thin air.
