Long Meihui's jaw practically dropped to the ground in sheer astonishment, her voice catching in her throat as she tried to utter a response, "Y-Y-Y...."
Never before in her entire life had she witnessed such a strange and bewildering scene.
Xia Rouyan, on the other hand, beamed with joy, her eyes sparkling. Her mother showered her with affection like this often, and every time, she cherished the experience.
Even though Long Meihui didn't find anything wrong, as a father pecking his one-year-old daughter on the lips or cheek was considered normal, she couldn't ignore Xia Tian's true intentions.
She knew deep down that he wanted to devour his own daughter, without caring about anything else.
Despite having previously accepted it and diverting her attention when Xia Shuiyao became pregnant, dismissing Xia Tian's words, she couldn't unsee what she had just witnessed.
Her eyes shifted to the small girl in her arms, filled with complexity. At that moment, she was unsure of what to do.
Long Meihui allowed her thoughts to spiral out of control once again. She entertained the idea that Xia Tian would devour Xia Rouyan at her tender age.
In that moment, she thought that ending Xia Rouyan's life would be the best option, sparing the little girl from unimaginable torment.
But could she really dare to take such extreme measures?
It was only a passing thought.
Why did people have such a negative impression of Xia Tian?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe was a decent man, who typically didn't consume raw meat.
Now, he couldn't even kiss his own daughter?
What was wrong with that?
It was those women who were assuming unfounded nonsense.
If Xia Tian had known the thoughts in Long Meihui's mind, he would have also impregnated this big breasted woman and enjoying in the opportunity to play with her innocent daughter in front of her.
However, Xia Tian was oblivious to her thoughts, ultimately missing out on this opportunity.
"By the way, big breasts, what brings you to this place?" Xia Tian finally asked, the most important question was asked last.
Alas, Xia Tian's priorities are truly different.
Long Meihui was left speechless, her breath catching in her throat as she sighed.
Meanwhile, Xia Tian cheekily rested his chin on her shoulder, allowing their faces to graze one another. To their delight, little Yanyan joined in, occasionally rubbing her cherubic face in the intimate space between them. Long Meihui's heart fluttered with nervous anticipation as she felt Xia Tian's warm breath against her skin.
But it didn't end there.
She even sensed his hands mischievously inching their way between her trembling thighs, skillfully caressing every secret crevice.
"T-Tian, how can I possibly explain myself if you continue to tease me like this?" she whispered, her voice trembling with shame, while little Yanyan observed her big sister's flushed face with wide-eyed curiosity.
Xia Tian couldn't resist a mischievous chuckle, undeterred by her plea.
His touch persisted, slowly exploring her most intimate places.
Time seemed to stand still as Long Meihui felt something sizable pressing against the gap of her quivering buttcheeks intermittently.
Gritting her teeth and summoning every ounce of self-control, Long Meihui endured this intoxicating torment and revealed the purpose of her visit to mystic peak realm.
She divulged the cunning plans of Long You, the patriarch of the Long family, how that conniving old bastard had switched his allegiance from Xia to the Shen family, leaving them betrayed.
"That patriarch of yours is truly an idiot," muttered Xia Tian, his expression contemplative.
"Huh?" Long Meihui was taken aback by Xia Tian's evaluation of Long You, only to realize that in his eyes, every man was considered an idiot.
Xia Tian continued, his voice filled with analysis, "Indeed, his aspirations are grand. He aims to extend his influence and dominate the mortal realm single-handedly."
"His initial plan was likely to use you as a means to infiltrate and control the Xia family, leveraging the relationship between his sister, Long Wanhui, and my mother. Simultaneously, Long You's wife, Shen Qing, hails from the Shen family, one of the major families beside the three ancient families."
"He must have struck a deal with those old bastards during his marriage to Shen Qing, or else they wouldn't be so accommodating."
By framing the 'Zhang' family somehow and removing them, he intended to replace them with the Shen family, solidifying their position. With Shen and Xia families as his subordinates, he sought to establish the dominance of the Long family in the mortal world."
"Now, with the chaos unfolding in the Xia family and rumors of my emergence, he believes that Xia poses too great a threat to be left alone, and he desires its eradication. The Xia family is already embroiled in a war with the Shen family, and in comparison to the Long family's relationship with the Xia family, their connection with the Shen family holds more weight."
"After all, my mother never cared much for the Long family and chose to run away and marry that old bastard, Xia Leng. Thus, Long You now sees Shen as a distraction. You are nothing more than a pawn, an assurance to the Shen family that they won't be betrayed in this game."
"By marrying a member of the Long family into the Shen family, the chances of betrayal are minimized. Now that Shen Qing belongs to the Long family, those cunning old foxes of the Shen family cannot fully trust her."
"Long You plans to unite the forces of Shen and Long, and then launch a surprise attack on the Xia family, aiming to annihilate it completely. Once Xia is gone, dealing with the already unstable Zhang family would be a piece of cake. They will either surrender or be wiped out."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Wow!" Long Meihui's mouth hung open, astonished that Xia Tian had unraveled each and every plan, even providing alternative scenarios involving Long You, all with just this amount of information.
She couldn't help but be amazed.
Xia Rouyan, not fully understanding the intricacies of the situation, simply mirrored Long Meihui's open-mouthed expression in awe, eliciting a faint smile from the latter.
Long Meihui couldn't help but express her concern, "But isn't Long You being too optimistic? He never accounted for the presence of Immortals, who could easily disrupt his plans."
Xia Tian sneered in response, "He is an idiot, of course he knows about the Immortals and wouldn't dare initiate a war without some form of assurance. The fact that he is still holding back until now suggests one thing—he is waiting for something."
Long Meihui pondered, her eyes suddenly brightening, "He must be waiting for martial brother to return!"
She spoke with enthusiasm, but instantly regretted her words as she bit her lip, noticing the interest sparked in Xia Tian's eyes at the mention of her martial brother.
"That's possible. He may be thinking of using the master of Long Tian to keep the Immortals from interfering in the battle," Xia Tian agreed with Long Meihui's speculation. But then he grinned mischievously, "However, that idiot will forever remain an idiot. How could he think about Immortals and yet forget to consider the mortals?"
Confused, Long Meihui asked, "What do you mean?"
Xia Tian's grin widened, "It's simple. Do you think mortals have no role in his grand plan? In fact, some have already begun to make their moves. The Imperial Wei family, which controls half of the Sacred Sky Jade Realm, has sent people to the Blue Star Realm. Why do you think they would do that? There must be some kind of deal between the realms. And who primarily controls the Sacred Sky Jade Realm? It's the Xia Family."
Once again, Long Meihui was left amazed, recalling rumors she had heard about the cooperation between the Northern and Southern continents of the Sacred Sky Jade Realm.
She instantly revealed the information about the new events swirling within the northern continent.
Hearing it, Xia Tian couldn't help but laugh, "That old bastard isn't entirely useless. He has considered these factors as well. If left unchecked, these smaller mortal families could disrupt his plans. So now, the branch of the Shen family that controls the Southern continent has decided to ally with the Wei family, and no one opposes them? The Xia Family must be too occupied with the war, but if no one from the Wei family objects, it simply means that there are already traitors within their ranks. With this, the old patriarch of the Long family has almost secured his victory."
Long Meihui's eyes flickered as she realized the intricacies of the situation. She had never imagined things to be this complicated.
Suddenly, she couldn't help but feel a slight fear towards the seemingly amicable face of Xia Tian.
"T-then, does that mean we have lost?" Long Meihui spoke unconsciously, already considering herself on Xia Tian's side.
"Ouch!" Long Meihui cried out as Xia Tian knocked her head, and spoke, "Of course we haven't lost! How could I ever lose? What does any of this have to do with me?"
Long Meihui was stunned before she finally realized that Xia Tian wasn't joking when he said he only cared about having fun and didn't care about who ruled or what.
