Paul went around looking at every tablet in the room, and wondered if his reincarnation soul was alright.
He was certain that he would go mad seeing an undeniable proof of the demise ofso many women whom he loved.
As he thought about it, one tablet came into view.
-So she is still alive.
Lord Sei stated coldly, looking at the tablet with Su Yao engraved on it.
-Paul, I'll need your help with something.
The soul said suddenly, with an enraged tone.
-What do you need?
The human asked, already suspecting what it was.
-I want you to destroy this tablet.
After what she's done, even a part of her soul has no place among my ladies.
Lord Sei said, coldly.
Paul knew that it took a part of one's soul to create these tablets, and if the tablet was destroyed, that part of the soul was destroyed along with it.
-Won't she know that it was destroyed?
He asked.
-That's the idea.
I want her to know.
The soul said.
-She will understand that I'm back, and that I know what she had done.
-But she will start looking for you.
-Yes, she will, and that's the secondary reason I want you to do it.
-I don't understand.
Paul admitted.
This made no sense at all.
-First of all, the destruction of the tablet will cause her great pain, which is only a sample of what I'm going to do to her when I get my hands on her.
Additionally, it will inform her that I'm alive, and she knows that I'm not a forgiving person, so she has every reason to fear my return.
Lastly, she will certainly think that I'm in the upper realms and start looking for me.
As long as she looks for me in the upper realms, she won't bother with the lower realms, eliminating any chance of discovering that I'm still only a soul.
There is also the matter of the mother of your two ladies from their clan.
If their whole clan looks for me in the upper realm, she will be too busy to come down here looking for you.
Lord Sei explained.
His words made a lot of sense, especially since Paul knew that the Su clan would not spare him, even if Sei's soul were separated from him.
-Alright, how do I destroy it?
Paul agreed to help.
-Use your sword imbued with your qi.
The soul answered.
Paul took out his sword and poured his qi into it.
Once it was charged, he struck the tablet, which, to his surprise,e didn't break.
-Hit it again.
Lord Sei said.
Paul struck once more, and this time there was a small crack on the tablet.
-Again.
The soul said.
In the end, it took over a dozen strikes before the tablet broke into pieces.
-Now burn it with as hot a fire as you can conjure.
Paul didn't even ask why he should bother.
Since he already smashed the tablet, he could burn it as well.
He had no idea that by doing so, he was torturing Su Yao, as simply smashing the tablet was not enough to destroy it.
At most, it released the part of the soul within it, but that part of the soul was vulnerable once it was released, and if you burnt it, the owner of the soul would suffer the pain of being burnt alive while not receiving any damage to their real body.
This was just the beginning of his revenge on the one who took his life and killed almost all of his women.
-Alright, let's go. The ladies are waiting for you, and we need to get Peacock into the other soul treasure.
The soul said when the tablet was turned into ashes after a few minutes of being burnt by Paul's flames.
Paul nodded and got up to leave, only to be stopped by a white crystal orb levitating in front of him.
-What is this thing?
He asked, but before the soul could answer, the orb started glowing, and avatars of two identical women with the beauty of goddesses appeared before him.
-So you finally returned.
One of the beauties said with a slight smile.
-If you are seeing this recording, then you had to destroy Yao's tablet, meaning that you already know what she had done.
The other one said.
-We don't have a lot of time, so we will be brief.
The first one spoke again.
-Three thousand years after you died and our sisters were slaughtered, we came back to the outside world.
Flora was waiting for us when we emerged from our dimension and told us everything.
She also informed us about the conditions the heavens imposed on your revival, and that she had gathered all the bodies of our sisters after they were killed.
Both Paul and Sei were stunned hearing this, and Paul had a lot of questions again, but decided to wait with them till later.
-Your body is also in our hands, so you don't need to look for it.
As for the location of the Resurrection cave, we have already found it, and it was not easy, so you can skip searching for it as well.
We transferred it to the mansion, so all you need to do right now is get back here, so we can revive you.
The shock on lord Sei's ghostly face was evident, as the bombshells fell one after the other.
-The fastest way for you to find us is to go find Shiro.
We gave her the void crystal to contact us once you arrive, and the moment you do, we are going to bring you back to life, though I'm not sure if you wouldn't prefer to stay dead when we are done with you.
The two women said with expressions suggesting that he had a lot to answer for, and they were not going to forgive him anytime soon.
-Oh, and I almost forgot.
Stop playing the all-knowing mysterious cultivator, and give Paul and his ladies the techniques already, since their foundations are more than strong enough by now.
One of the twins scolded him.
-We are sorry, Paul.
Not only do you not get the knowledge, but you also need to deal with this idiot's eccentricities.
Both ladies bowed slightly, and he could swear that they were looking straight at him in that moment.
With that, the recording ended, and the crystal ball drifted into Paul's hands.
He was shocked, not only by the fact that they knew his name, but they even apologized to him on Sei's behalf.
-It seems that we will have a few things to discuss once we get out of here.
Paul said to the soul who was still dazed after seeing the recording the twins left for them.
