Brull looked at Rowen and then snorted. "Kid, from the first time I saw you I could tell that there was something wrong with you. How could the first thing one does when entering the sect is to kill a fellow aspirant?"
"Only a Demon could do something like this. Wheathollow sect is a respectable and righteous sect, Demonic beings like you have no place here."
"I Brull Pok as a core disciple of the sect will bring you to justice now!"
He said and then took out a sharp spear from his spatial ring. The spear had a dark blue scaly body and a shiny head, which emitted a deadly aura.
He didn't really intend to take the test and directly wanted to kill Rowen, it was like he was sure Rowen was the one who killed Mara.
Rowen looked at him and stayed silent, he knew that he can't do much now everything is dependent on Dana. He just rotated his demonic technique to its fullest, if Dana didn't interrupt now, he could only rely on his demonic Dao.
The Cyclopes that was out of his beast bag also had Blaze Flame Dagger ready to use anytime. Although it can't help much, it can still stall enough time for him to escape.
A green coloured aura covered the spear making the wood on the floor crack around it. "You will have the honour of dying by my Death Shark Spear." He said and then pointed the tip in front of Rowen.
When Dana looked ar him, she quickly stood up and moved in front of Rowen. She looked at Brull angrily as she never expected this muscular head to disobey her commands.
"This is the final warning! Do just as I say! Or you will be the dead next!" She yelled and then moved Rowen away from in front of the spear.
However, Rowen didn't budge from his place. "No need Mistress Dana if you even have doubts that I can lie to you, it means I have failed to be a loyal group member and it would be good if I died," Rowen said as he looked at her eyes.
Dana had a distressed expression on her face when Rowen said those words, he could tell that his Blood Resonance is slowly seeping in her soul and she was feeling more and more guilty about what she was doing.
However, the image of her dead sister flicked in front of her eyes again and again. She balled her fists tightly and then bit her lower lip.
She really didn't want to break the trust between Rowen and her, as she has never felt the same feeling with anyone else, the feeling she gets with him. However, for her, it was very important to know the truth.
"Brother Brull go ahead and do the test." She said and then her body slumped on the sofa. She has done it, this sentence meant that she didn't trust Rowen.
Rowen looked at her state and smiled internally, he was exploiting her emotions by his Blood Resonance.
"Hmph! Kid, it doesn't matter I will kill you after proving that you were the one that killed sister Mara." Brull said and then moved towards the Cyclopes that was sitting on Rowen's shoulder.
He placed his finger on his head and sent his qi in the Cyclopes' body he could feel it's energy. And just as he did so his face contorted, he looked at Rowen and moved back.
"Kid, are you hiding any other monsters?" Brull has already known through Dana that Rowen only had one Demon. And the energy that he found on Mara didn't match this demon.
"You can check me," Rowen said nonchalantly and then threw his beast bag towards him.
Brull caught it and then quickly went through it, however, he couldn't find anything in it. His face turned ted and then he looked at Dana.
"Mistress he doesn't have a demon with the same energy as found on sister Mara. However, we can't be sure of it, allow me to check his body and only then we can confirm it." He said and then moved towards Rowen.
When Dana heard him she let out a relaxed sigh, however just after a pain pierced her heart. She had just ruined their relationship by doubting it. She knew in a relationship both sides had to have equal things to give.
Rowen was ready to give up his life for her group, however, she on the other has failed to even trust him.
And it was only then she noticed that Brull was moving towards Rowen to check his body. 'If this continued then the damage would be irreversible, however, before she could do something Brull has already placed his hand on Rowen's head and sent his Qi in his body.
A panicked expression appeared on her face. Old man Wan has already checked Rowen before and she was sure that Rowen was not a demon so checking him would be not good.
She moved her body to remove Brull's hand from his head, however, she was already late, as she could tell by the Bald guy's expression that he has already scanned his body.
Brull looked at him and then moved back. He clenched his fist and then took out a book from his spatial ring.
"Boy this is Shadow Sword technique a Martial Synchronization realm one, you can practice it till you get to that stage. It's a little compensation for today's misunderstanding between us. Hope you can understand." He said and disappeared from his spot without saying anything.
He didn't want to embarrass himself anymore as his speculation has turned completely wrong. Which mean a demon has really breached the sect under their nose. He has to inform about this to the vice sect leader as fast as he could.
When Dana realised what she has done, a sad expression appeared on her face. She has just ruined the relationship between them by not trusting Rowen.
She looked at Rowen with regret flashing in her eyes. There was a constant pain in her chest which made her wanted to cry. "Junior Brother, It's not that I don't trust you. But I have to know who killed my sister, hope you can forgive me." She said with a pained voice.
Rowen looked at her and then smiled. "Sister Dana, I think what you have done is understandable. Anyone would have done the same." He said.
When Dana heard his words she almost broke down. He has addressed her has 'sister Dana' instead of 'sect mistress' implying that he was disappointed in her and she has broken his trust.
Rowen could tell that his Blood Resonance Technique has completely messed with her mind. No one would in their right mind would cry for a stranger who they have met just a few days ago.
However, she was doing it. She was feeling the pain of not trusting him only because of this amazing art.
"Sister Dana, I think you should leave for now and take your emotions under control, we can talk about this when you are stable. As I am a Demon Tamer, Maybe I can help you catch the real culprit." He said.
Dana listened to him, his every word piercing her heart with more pain, tears formed in her eyes. She waved her hand and then disappeared from her spot. She didn't want him to see her cry in regret, it would make things complicated.
She already has a fiancee and crying for another man would really implicate her previous relationship.
Just as she disappeared from his house, Rowen slumped on the sofa and let out a loud laugh. This was a close call, he almost died. The thrill of being on edge made him excited.
He took out a bottle of expensive alcohol and chugged it down his mouth. A spicy aroma filled his mouth making him extremely happy.
He finished the whole bottle of alcohol in just fifteen minutes.
Dana appeared in her bedroom and landed on the bed. Tears started to fall down her eyes soaking the white pillow below her.
'Why? Why? Why? Why am I sad about that boy I have met a few days ago? It was only correct of me to suspect him, however, why do I feel this pain like I have done something wrong.' She thought and then started sobbing.
She was sadder about the fact that she hurt Rowen's feelings than the fact that her sister just died.
"What is happening to me? Why am I so stupid?" She thought and balled her fist tightly.
After a few hours of pain and regret, she stood up form the bed. Her eyes heavy and hairs looking dishevelled. She was completely haggard.
She listlessly stood up form her place and then moved towards her bathroom slowly. Her heart was still hurting and she has finally accepted that she has feelings for Rowen.
Previously she has ignored these feelings, however, it is now becoming unbearable. She can't even feel anything but the intolerable pain in her heart.
After reaching her bathroom she stood up in front of the mirror and looked at her haggard appearance. She couldn't even feel if she was breathing or not.
She took out a dagger from her spatial ring and then made cut on her finger, however, the pain in her heart didn't subside.
