Just as Rowen's words landed in Brull's ears, red, covered his face, his eyes shaped into a rice grain, the muscular leg stomped on the floor spreading spiderweb-like cracks all over it.
"You! You don't even know who you have killed?!" Brull rebuked and was about to land a lethal punch on Rowen's face again. How can this piece of crap kill his lover without even knowing her name?
Brull was very angry, he was courting mistress Dana's sister for the past year without any success and then this guy rap*s and kills her, made him very furious.
Everyone in the sect knew to not even lay their eyes on Pok's property. This newbie bastard has dared to take the love of his life? This was a clear slap on Pok family's reputation in the sect.
If he didn't kill this boy, he would have no face to show to rest of his family and sect.
Dana cast a glare at Brull, making him stop in mid and he silently place his body back on the sofa. Although he was from Pok family, he still doesn't dare to deny Dana's command.
She was just an outer sect disciple however she held as much power as vice leader of the sect and in the future, she will even have power equal to sect leader.
No one would dare mess with someone like her, even if Pok families founding ancestor was still alive, even then he would not dare to anger her.
'Vice leader Mostink has ordered me to follow all the commands from Mistress Dana, otherwise, this punk would already have been dead and by the way why is sister Dana defending this useless piece of crap? It's obvious that he is the one that killed Mara, who else would have done it?' Brull thought and then clenched his fist to suppress his anger.
'Once it's proven that you are the one that killed, Mara, I will let you experience life worse than death!' Brull picked up the wine glass and started sipping on it slowly while glaring at Rowen.
Dana sighed and then a streak of tear dropped from her left eye, currently, her heart was very heavy.
Mara was like a sister to her, although her father adopted Mara to make her a servant, she was her only friend and sister. She has never asked Dana for anything even when she was struggling with her cultivation.
Mara was the only one that was not selfish to her.
Dana started sobbing while rubbing her tears with her hands. Brull looked at her and panicked if the vice leader found out that Mistress Dana cried, he would be as good as dead meat.
He stood up and wanted to say something, however, decided to stay silent, he realised that she was not crying because of him, instead, she was crying to mourn Mara's death.
Brull again sat on his seat, not intending to interrupt and make her angry. Rowen, on the other hand, looked at her crying and sighed. He knew that there was an emotional turmoil going on in her body.
On one side she was sad for Mara and on the other side, she couldn't believe Rowen was the one that did something so horrible to her sister.
Even when all evidence was against Rowen she still wanted to listen to his side, before doing anything rash and then regretting it later.
"Sect Mistress, I don't know what is happening here, however, if you want to kill me then hesitate no more, from the day you helped me enter the sect and made my advancement possible, I have pledged my life to you."
"You can take it without any reason and I will happily give it to you," Rowen said while forcing his blood resonance as much as he could on his words.
His Blood resonance currently doesn't have much effect on Brull as he was many leaves above him, however, if he somehow convinces Dana that he has not killed Mara than this muscular guy would not be able to harm him.
Dana listened to him and then looked at his face, she could feel the same sensation she felt when she talked him in her mansion, she could somehow tell that he was serious.
Brull on the other side snorted at Rowen's act and wanted to call him out, however, stayed silent as he didn't intend to offend Dana anymore.
"The girl I have sent with you to show your room, she was my sister and was found dead in the main market. She also had demonic energy in her body which meant she... She... Sob... She was ravaged by a demon before she died and only you have a demon powerful enough in the whole sect that could kill a true deity." Dana said and looked at his eyes sincerely.
"She was found dead just after she left your settlement, that is why Brother Brull thinks that you have killed her. Now you have to tell me the truth or I will not be able to save you this time." She continued as she fidgeted with her nails and fingers.
Somewhere in her subconscious mind, she hoped that Rowen was not the killer.
Rowen listened to her and then a slightly enlightened and shocked expression appeared on his face, he stood up from his seat hastily and bowed in front of Dana.
"Sect mistress, I am sorry, I didn't knew that she was your sister. I don't know what happened to her as she left just after entering the corridor of this house. She said that she had something important tomorrow so have to leave."
"I never would have guessed that she was sect mistress's sister or I would have treated her more respectfully."
"I don't know who killed her however if the sect mistress thinks that I am the one, then she can punish me if she wants, I would not complain if she wants to take my life."
Rowen said and then sat on his place again.
Dana listened to him and then took out a jade script from her ring, there was a round red coloured spot on the middle of empty paper. She gulped her saliva and looked at Rowen.
"This is the demonic energy we found in her body, now let brother Brull check your demon's demonic energy if it matched with this then I will bring upon the punishment you deserve. However, I don't want someone innocent to be punished that is why you should cooperate with us."
She said and then handed the script to Brull. He nodded and then took it from her hand, although he knew that it is not needed as its impossible for a demon to breach in the sect. Only this guy's demon could have done it.
And on top of that, the last person sister Mara met was him, even a mentally disabled person could tell that Rowen has killed her.
Rowen looked at her and then a disappointed expression appeared on his face. "Does, sister Mara does not believe me? She doesn't need to do any of this If I can't even be trustful to you than I have no right to live." Rowen said as he used his blood resonance on her.
When Mara heard him a painful feeling suddenly arose in her heart and she started to feel suffocated. She knew that if she did a test on Rowen than it means she does not believe him even after he dedicated his life to her and her group.
It would be a huge insult to his esteem. He would rather die in vanity than to have someone place a test on his loyalty.
"It's not what you are thinking, I just want no innocent to get harm because of me. You can prove your innocence by this test." She said while biting her lower lip in frustration.
"No need to think too much Sect mistress, he is just trying to fool us by his sly words. Or why else would he refuse to give this test?" Brull finally couldn't stop himself and spoke out.
Rowen listened to him and sighed. He looked at Dana seriously and spoke. "Mistress Dana, you can end my life if you want, however, I can't bear that you question my loyalty, I can never lie to you."
"I have sworn loyalty to you and your group, and if you are the one that questions it then its all worthless to me. If Mistress can't even believe me then there is no point of my loyalty."
He stood up from his place and then looked at Brull, "brother I am ready to give this test." He said and then took out his cyclopes.
Dana, on the other hand, clenched her hands so tightly that her fingernails were embedded in her skin. She knew that if Rowen gave the test and turned out innocent than she will lose him.
How can she ever question someone who has given up his life to her? Why would he ever lie to her if his life was in her hands? This test would be the end of their trust.
However, she also couldn't just let him die without knowing that if he killed Mara or not, she was in a predicament now.
