"Oye, oye, oye. Not only did you try to blow me up, but you're also trying to rob my rich benefactor from me?"
Davis arrived before Myria after flying past the destroyed ice barrier. He had almost got caught in the explosion while he was hidden, causing him to glare before he teasingly smiled.
Myria stared at him like a frozen doll. She thought he was slacking but had just now seen his powers. She never thought he could use karmic energy this proficiently. Others may not see it, but she saw the intricacies involved in his attack. He had once again done the impossible, combining something obscure with even more obscure, causing her to be astounded.
Moreover, she couldn't understand how he was keeping up with her soul, which would keep increasing passively until she reached her prime before her first death.
After she entered the immortal realm, the speed of increase for her was practically tremendous, but he was still keeping up with her.She had no choice but to attribute his improvements to the apex treasure. However, she couldn't help but feel an ounce of sorrow. Why did it have to be her daughter's man?
It was unknown what kind of future he would face with that apex treasure in his hands, but she deeply hoped that it wouldn't be a tragedy.
Still, she heaved a sigh on hearing his words, "You two seemed like you had a feud before?"
"She's young." Davis shook his head, "Just some childishness on her part but whatever. If you want her, you can have her. I already milked her need to be right and arrogant enough."
"How crass... and also false." Myria lightly scoffed after pausing, "I know you don't think like that as you're already thinking of letting her go, feeling slightly guilty about gaining so many contribution points from her. On that note, you better return mine soon."
"Of course." Davis smiled proudly, "You bet that I don't entertain myself being indebted to anyone."
Myria lightly smiled on seeing him boast, causing her to shake her head."However, I do need her influence and wealth. I think it can be beneficial if I could get her to be on my side."
Davis's brows narrowed in response, "Watch it. If you get too involved with a big power, trouble and internal problems naturally follow suit."
"I know. But the Tyriel Family is a light-attributed family. I'm sure they have many things that can improve our soul cultivation exponentially."
'I have Fallen Heaven though...' Davis imagined but still nodded. That was also one of the reasons why he stayed his hands when dealing with Rea Tyriel.
As long as the other party didn't go overboard or have killing intent, he wasn't willing to kill. He only thought of disciplining her after Tanya gained the inheritance by having Tanya shove her power in her face. Still, since they had met again, he taught her a bit of a lesson, having her suffer a loss of her own doing.
Besides, this was a sect, and he didn't want to be framed and chased all over the place for killing fellow disciples, especially not by two powers that owned Domains.
Judging by the way the Aurora Cloud Gate treated Divergents, he could tell that they got rid of evil ones. Otherwise, they couldn't be this low-key in the world, although people forgetting stories of Divergents due to some kind of karmic restriction also had something to do with it.
"So are you two also husband and wife?"
Davis blinked before he smiled at Rea Tyriel, feeling like it was the best thing she had ever said. Myria glared at him, seeing him not deny it before she narrowed her eyes.
"We're not. We're merely... family."
"...!"
Davis turned to look at Myria in shock. However, he realized that she meant that she saw him as a son-in-law, causing him to purse his lips but still made him feel better as they were upgraded from allies. For Myria to consider him family, then she must truly want a grandson from him and Ellia as she wished for before.
'So that wasn't her trying to make humor?' Davis curled his lips before he turned to look at Rea Tyriel.
"Yes, I love her- uhm... little sister and will eventually marry her."
"Oh, the one called Ellia who's always hanging around you two. I see." Rea Tyriel nodded as a wry expression appeared on her face, "No wonder you three defeated Niel Bladeheart to become true disciples in our sect. I haven't seen her true prowess, but you two are definitely... strange monsters."
"How rude."
Rea Tyriel's expression became complex, and although Davis said she was rude, only a smirk remained on his lips, seemingly taking it as a compliment.
"I'll be taking my loot then. No hard feelings like before, alright?"
He raised his brows at Rea Tyriel, causing her to look away and scoff, "This is nothing to me."
She turned to look at him and pointed at his face with a blatant smile on her face, "On the other hand, for you to wager your time and power to me, it goes to say how worthless you are."
"You're not wrong, but before you know it, that status quo could change."
"We'll see."
Davis simply smiled, while Rea Tyriel possessed the same attitude. Although she had looked disheartened to understand reality, she was still taking some pride in the fact that he was nothing compared to her in status and wealth. She was still a spoiled young mistress in his eyes.
He could only shake his head and turn to look at the sea of carcasses.
For a moment, Davis panned his gaze and saw the immense number of carcasses piling up the pathway, causing him to feel a sense of unrealism.
Just a few months ago, he had almost given up hope when seeing an Immortal King Vacuous Beast descend to the Grand Beginnings Continent, his heart sinking to the deepest of his fears if he didn't possess Fallen Heaven and revived Flamerose and Frostrose, but here he was now, reaping Immortal King beings like he was crushing ants. The him before would've never expected such a change in a short few months.
The him who received Lereza's challenge also didn't expect he would improve this quickly that it now seemed that was a lot of time for him to reach the qualifications for the challenge.
Shaking his head once again with some pride, he spent some time collecting the loot.
In total, Davis collected six thousand and eight hundred carcasses belonging to Level Two Immortal King Unfettered Ice Fiends, and that made up for thirteen million and six hundred contribution points which more or less made his heart quiver as this was a massive sum that would boost the growth of all his people including himself even if he walked out right at this moment!
