Chapter 552 Explain Yourself Later



The avatar turned into a spherical shaped white and yellow glow and became a streak of light as it shot towards Davis’s glabella.

Davis didn’t avoid the streak of light and the avatar returned to his soul sea but didn’t become one with his soul essence. Instead, it stayed beside his soul essence, shaping into a tiny Davis when the glow receded.

The others looked at the phenomenon and didn’t suspect anything. They just casually thought that it was a soul body and became slightly in awe of his actions.

’Such precise control when being weak from an injury required tremendous will’ Or so they thought.

They didn’t know that he need not actively control the avatar since the avatar is him. Even if he is unconscious in both body and soul, the avatar will still be active since it is a separate entity. This is the enormous difference that separated an avatar and a soul body.

Davis smilingly glanced at Lucas and the latter’s expression froze.

At this time, Daniuis who was silent but solemn asked, \"What happened? Did an intruder appear?\"

Davis looked at Daniuis and recast his gaze towards Lucas as an expression of interest appeared on his face. He too wanted to know what had happened.

Why did Lucas try to enter his room? Even going so far as to enter through the wide windows in a secretive matter?

Lucas looked at Davis and his mind belatedly clicked in realization. He instantly became confused when he realized that Davis was alright.

When he sneaked outside Davis’s room at the windows, he was sure that he would be noticed by Davis but wasn’t. Wondering what had happened, he peeked inside and unexpectedly saw Davis shiver and bleed out from his mouth like he had been poisoned!

He was instantly shocked!

At that moment, he jerked and inadvertently made the window clatter in reaction to the sound of the tray and the dishes that fell on the floor.

However, before he could realize what had happened, he heard an angry scream asking for who before he got instantly shrouded in green gaseous essence energy.

He tried to shout but he ended up inhaling the gaseous matter in a panic! At the next moment, he fell with a thud and lost consciousness.

The next thing he knew, he woke up in this place, spitting out liters of black blood!

\"I think Lucas should know the whole story as I’ve only witnessed the latter end of the situation.\"

\"For what reason did the intruder target you then?\"

Davis lied without batting an eyelid, \"The intruder is likely here for Isabella who won the Conferred King Tournament. As for why the intruder wanted to make contact or poison her, I don’t know...\"

Daniuis pursed his lips but before he could say anything, Davis continued.

\"In any case, Isabella has already given her word to set up Peak-Level King Grade Formations in this place. She had just told me this yesterday, so she is likely wandering the stores on the second level of the city, trying to find a few apt formations for our safety. Just give her some more time...\"

No one had seen Princess Isabella in the skies since undulations of Body Tempering Cultivation was rather hard to find. Besides, she was a Martial Master, hence controlling her undulations was perhaps an easy task for her, making it difficult for others to find her.

Daniuis was taken aback. He pondered for a moment before his lips curved, \"I’ll guard the front gate until then...\"

\"Well, we’ll never know which gate the intruder entered from as the intruder had the means to be undetected by the Low-Level King Grade Detection Formation...\" Davis wryly smiled.

The residence had the front gate and the rear gate, only two gates since the sides were blocked by other residences.

Meanwhile, the three behind him wondered why Davis had chosen to hide the truth. It wasn’t like this matter happened on purpose or even intent in any case. It was just a misunderstanding that could be solved with discussion.

No enmity would be formed but they also belatedly understood that hard feelings would be left.

Is that why Davis didn’t tell them the truth? And why didn’t Lucas tell the truth, even going far as to fabricate the story?

While they were sure of the former, they were confused as to the latter.

Nevertheless, they didn’t interfere with Davis’s decisions, only standing by his side to indicate that they will be on his side no matter what.

Such imperceptible gestures were not noticed by anyone except Davis since he could feel the warmth behind him.

After this, Davis had requested all to leave and give Lucas some space to rest. Lucas reassured his family that he was fine and only wanted to rest for the time being.

Hence, the others all left after a period of time.

In the room, only Lucas, Davis, Evelynn, Claire and Logan were left.
