"I am Lin Huan"

"!!"

Ye Suyin stared at her in shock, her gaze fell into her two towering breasts, 'Is this Lin Huan?'

"Woman, I wonder why were you disguised as a man?" Xia Tian spoke with a playful smile.

Li Nan glared at him and snorted. "It has nothing to do with you."

Ye Suyin placed Xia Tian's earlier words together and concluded. 'She was disguised as a man? I see...The problem was not too big, cultivators often use disguise, but why is Xia Tian exaggerating it?'

"Anyway, what is your real name." she sighed and questioned.historical

Li Nan became flustered for a moment, she can't lie in front of this girl. 'What should I do? This girl would surely recognize me by my name, and if I lie, it will be easily exposed."

In the end, she gritted her teeth and spoke. "Li Nan."

"Oh, Li Nan got i-" Ye Suyin's eyes opened wide midway.

Her name was too similar, she has already heard of it. With a frown, she spoke. "Are you the escaped princess of the Li family?"

"What's with that name!" Li Nan angrily spoke confirming the first words.

Xia Tian raised an eyebrow, 'The escaped princess? daddy issues?'

If there is any one pattern Xia Tian has noticed in all these years... It is girls having daddy issues!

He turned to Ye Suyin for an explanation.

"Why this strange nickname?" he inquired.

Ye Suyin with a conflicted look glanced at Li Nan was trying to act indifferent to the situation.

"You are not from here?" she asked him, as most people already knew about the incident.

Xia Tian shrugged. "I am from another realm."

"Oh," Ye Suyin nodded and started explaining, it wasn't rare to encounter someone from another realm.

The continent they are currently in lies in the northern hemisphere.

The northern continent had four prominent families, excluding the imperial Wei family:

Li Family;

Ye Family ;

Su family;

And Huo family,

Other than that there are many sects, but out of them, the most prominent are:

Holy Water Palace;

Eternal Star sect;

Limitless sword sect;

And Dark Soul sect, the last sect is not as strong as the first three sects but it still counted as the top power in the northern continent, all due to the sect master of the dark soul sect...

The incident happened about 80 years ago.

Li family had tried to suppress the incident but failed. Almost everyone knew that the prince from the Imperial Shen family of the southern continent had an engagement with one of the prominent families in the northern continent.

Everyone thought it could help establish a link between the southern and northern continents once again.

But the girl escaped even before the engagement could take place, she escaped even before meeting the prince.

It was a disgrace to both the Li family and the Imperial Shen family.

Strangely enough, neither of the family pursued the matter, so the incident was buried pretty soon.

The only thing that remained was the rumor about the Princess of Li family who escaped, but no clarification was ever provided.

Some people thought it was just a hoax, while the families which knew the matter went silent.

"That is pretty much it..." Ye Suyin finished speaking.

As she was from the Ye family, the details were not hidden from her.

Xia Tian nodded at her, he understood the situation, a girl who escaped from an arranged marriage. He has encountered it a lot of times, but in this story, there were so many weak links.

"Why did either of the families not pursed her?" on hearing Xia Tian's question Li Nan snorted softly and turned to another side.

Of course, she knew the answer, but why should she tell it to two strangers?

Ye Suyin also became interested while looking at Li Nan.

Xia Tian being Xia Tian, how can he let such an interesting thing slide... The girl has piqued his interest or more precisely the trouble behind this girl, how can he just let it go?

He started looking around himself with a serious expression on his face, both women were confused by his strange actions.

After a while, he nodded and spoke to himself. "Looks like everything is clear."

"What is clear?" Li Nan spoke, and his words were loud enough to be heard by both women.

"No one is around us." Xia Tian spoke again, his gaze swiftly scanning the body of Li Nan making the woman flustered, while Ye Suyin was getting more and more confused. 'No one is around them? So? They are in the middle of a forest, why would anyone be here?'

Li Nan took a step back while hiding her nervousness.

"Ahem, since you are with this girl, I should get going. As for my rewards, tell general Ye, I don't need them," she spoke and tried to immediately flee from here.

As a cultivator, how can she not sense the vibes coming from Xia Tian?

She does need money anymore, her life is more important.

Unfortunately, heavy pressure descended on her and she was unable to take a single step.

"!!"

A hand was placed on her shoulder, and Li Nan's expression turned ugly.

She sighed and looked back. "I will tell everything..."

Xia Tian smiled, "You are smart."

'What smart? You are literally blackmailing me!' Li Nan screamed in her mind, but she dared not to voice her thoughts.

The other woman was still young, unable to understand the interactions between both, or more like she never thought Xia Tian could do something like this.

She was in a state of repression, a defense mechanism to protect her beliefs.

Ye Suyin and Li Nan, both have completely different opinions about him.

"I was saved by my friend..." Li Nan spoke with a sigh.

"En" Ye Suyin nodded, while the other one sneered.

Xia Tian, "Lady, do you take us as some kind of idiot?"

Li Nan narrowed her eyes at him, "Why?"

"How do you think we will know your friend? Doesn't he have a name?"

" _ "

Li Nan had a blank expression on her face, after glancing at Xia Tian's straight expression she was unable to discern whether this man was annoying her on purpose or not.

'Can't he have more patience?' she thought.

At last, she decide to ignore him and continued.

"His name was Long Tian, h-"

"Long Tian!", this time it was Ye Suyin who interrupted her.

Lin Nan shook her head after being interrupted twice, what is with this pair of man and woman?

"You know Long Tian?" she asked.

Ye Suyin smiled faintly and replied. "He was my fiance..." she emphasized the word 'was', her intention was clear, and Li Nan squinted her eyes at her.

The man peeked at both women with interest, 'Long Tian? ... Another son of destiny?... Long family..."

The dragon family was unaware, that their end was approaching near them.

Li Nan processed Ye Suyin's words, and after a moment, she frowned.

"You betrayed brother Long!! Have you gone mad girl? How dare you!" she increased her voice unconsciously, whoever this Long Tian was, it was clear Li Nan held him in high regard.

Ye Suyin furrowed at her sudden outburst. Betrayed? She hasn't even seen that man?

Still, she felt offended when her character was questioned.

She glanced at fuming Li Nan with a mocking smile. "Look who says about betrayal?... Our famous escaped princess? Hehe~" her words acted as a trigger for Li Nan, but before they broke out in a catfight, someone has more important issues than them.

"Long Tian needs to die." Xia Tian lightly said.

"!!"

Both women turned around and stared at him in a stunned manner at the time, Xia Tian's expression was clear, that he had made the decision.

"Why?" they questioned.

"Because he has the same name as me!" His reasoning was yet again simple, which made both the woman stare at him speechlessly.

The wiser one laughed out.

"Do you even know who is Long Tian? Let alone the ancient family behind his back... Long Tian himself is a dragon! He will soar the skies one day." Li Nan spoke with a proud look.

"She is right..." Ye Suyin muttered, although this lass doesn't want to agree with Li Nan, Long Tian was indeed a legend, this is what her father has also told her.

Xia Tian wasn't bothered by their remarks, he first glanced at Ye Suyin and thought. 'I don't know about Long Tian, but she is soaring my dragon.'

Then, his gaze shifted to Li Nan. 'I should make her soar the dragon as well.." he inwardly nodded.

The women were unaware of what Xia Tian was thinking, but he had a thoughtful look, so both decided to not disturb him, after a moment of thinking about various sex positions for the fierce woman, Xia Tian opened his eyes and pointed at the star symbol on his right chest.

Li Nan squinted her eyes at the star symbol, "Is your first name Xia?" she spoke unable to hide her surprised voice.

"It's Tian, Xia Tian," he spoke, making Li Nan sigh.

"This is going to be troublesome..." Li Nan whispered.

Ye Suyin glanced at her and Xia Tian in succession, how did this woman know his name...

'Is it related to that star symbol of his right chest?' she thought.

"You don't know about the star?" Li Nan who became aware of her confusion said.

Ye Suyin lightly shook her head.

Li Nan rubbed her forehead. 'Why is this getting more and more complicated? Does this girl not realize what she has done?'

After a moment, she explained Ye Suyin.

"The star symbol belongs to the ancient Xia Family, just like how the dragon symbol belonged to the Long family, there is one more Zhang family, and their symbol is the sacred tree, remember this for the future..."

Ye Suyin nodded lightly and glanced at Xia Tian, who shrugged, he didn't care about the ancient families.

The ancient family existence was hidden, but the leaders of prominent clans and sects, clearly knew about their symbols.

'He belongs to an ancient family? Does it mean I don't need to fear about my engagement with the Long family' Ye Suyin whispered to herself with a smile visible on her face.

Li Nan who understood the look on her face sighed. "Girl, don't you realize what you have done? You have brought two ancient families against each other... What are you even smiling for?"

"How?" Ye Suyin tilted her head slightly.

What has she done?

Seeing her innocent look, Li Nan got irritated.

She sneered. "Don't feign ignorance, you were the one who was madly shaking your hips inside the cave. Do you believe this matter would end easily? Will the Long family let it go? There will be war!"

Ye Suyin's eyes widened at her words.

"H-How do you know about it!" she spoke with a faint blush. 'Was she peeking at us?' she thought, but Li Nan did not answer her and became silent.

Xia Tian was bored by these two women chit chat, he yawned lightly.

"You still haven't answered how Long Tian saved you?" he said.

Xia Tian wanted to know the relationship between Li Nan and the son of destiny.

Recalling about the past incidents Li Nan sighed, Long Tian have a very distinct expression on her mind.

She spoke.

"Eighty years ago, I encountered Long Tian for the first time in an intercontinental competition, I asked for his help after running away from my family. Long Tian's mother belonged to the Shen imperial family of the southern continent, with his words the Shen family did not pursue me and under the pressure from the Long family, my family also decided to forget about the matter..."

"After the competition was over Long Tian was chosen by an immortal master as his disciple and taken away to the immortal world."

Li Nan sighed heavily, she wanted to express her gratitude to Long Tian for his help, unfortunately, he has gone with that immortal, and she would have to wait till he comes back.

Xia Tian shook his head with pity. 'A child of destiny who ascended to a higher realm... Leaving his women behind... After years he would come back and claim them... Does he think a woman will wait for this long? Or time has stopped? If not for Destiny, this woman would have been holed by another cultivator.'

However, he did not forget to thank Long Tian for leaving him such a great toy.

another way that Xia Tian said was nothing else but becoming his toy.

Li Nan has confusion between men and women, he would love to fix her identity.

She probably has some bias that being a man has more advantages than being a woman.

He would first make her a proper woman, and then he would teach her obedience.
