Chapter 2016: Enemies?
Everyone felt intense curiosity over Ellia's existence and also a bit of jealousy because Davis went to such lengths to get her back. Moreover, they could see that she was a dazzling, empire-toppling beauty. Even while sleeping and looking battered, her looks triumphed over most of them, making them pout and sulk at another rival they weren't acquainted with.
"She Myria too."
Davis answered, starting to heal himself. His wounds quickly kept closing, and flesh grew anew. However, his words caused many of them to stagger.
"Ah!~ She's still alive!?" Fiora felt rattled.
"There's no way around it." Davis shook his head, "Killing Myria would kill Ellia but not the other way around, according to the both of them."
"What!?"
"That's so unfair!"
"Did Myria do something to Ellia to be like this?"
Many questions were thrown at him, causing him to reply.
"Perhaps, she did. Perhaps, she did not because it's her unique physique's ailment. In any case, this isn't a matter that could be resolved easily, and I don't want to play with Ellia's life, so I only plan to try something about it when I reach the immortal level while also gaining more knowledge and assurance."
At this moment, Shirley approached Davis and kissed his lips, her eyes looking deeply relieved, "Thank you."
Davis nodded. Caressing Shirley's head, he saw that Shirley was the most joyous that all three of them survived.
"You better stay away from her." If Shirley wasn't pregnant, he would allow her to interact, but there's no telling what Myria would do. After all, Shirley was already pregnant for seven months. Only two months were left, and in this time frame, the third trimester was where she would become even weaker.
There was Isabella too. However, she was way behind, only being three months pregnant.
"Mhm~" Shirley's pursed her lips as she complained, "I know Myria will not harm me. She's not a person who will deign to kill innocents, much less an unborn. Even better, I can help you cooperate with her as you wanted."Dive into Stories, Embrace Enchantment: N♡vεlB¡n.
Davis felt tempted, but he shook his head, "Even so, stay away from her. You can communicate through a projection if you want."
"Fine."
Shirley could only agree helplessly before she glanced at Myria's sleeping figure. A teasing curve appeared on her lips, "I've never seen her so vulnerable. She looks cute rather than glaring and cold."
"Heh, fainting in front of a pervert like me two times, Myria has huge guts or believes that I wouldn't do such a thing." Davis sneered.
"Of course, you wouldn't do such a thing."
Evelynn grabbed his arm suddenly from beside, sweetly smiling as she pushed her big breasts against him while looking at Ellia.
"Should I seal her with my hex?"
"No need."
"Go on."
"They've just specifically targeted the Jade Lotus Valley and attacked them. However, it seemed that the Shard Family's Ancestor died."
"What? Who killed him?" Davis became pleasantly surprised.
"Fairy Ivy Aries killed him. However, it seemed that she expended her energy and was forced to hide in the Poison Rift Valley. My sources tell me that she threw herself into the rifts in order to survive the onslaught of Emperor Sword Sect's ambush."
Davis blinked before he asked.
"Is there anything else?"
"Nothing else is there for me to report, your eminence."
"Alright."
Davis kept the messaging talisman inside his spatial ring before a grin couldn't help but appear on his lips. This was what he was waiting for because he could start cleansing them from this world! As for the evidence of these powers working against him, the All-Seeing Emperor would take care of it, but at his level, he doubted that he needed them.
The only gripe was that Ivy Aries went missing inside the rifts, her life, and death unknown.
While he wondered if it was possible to save her, he saw Evelynn communicating with a messaging talisman at this moment. When he listened to her conversation, it seemed that it was from Yotan.
Their conversation ended, and Davis approached her.
"What's going on?"
"It seems that..." Evelynn began to explain.
Apparently, after the New Era Battle Arena ended, the people decided to return to their powers. However, the Emperor Sword Sect that had previously left used this to their advantage and ambushed the Jade Lotus Valley's returning entourage.
The Jade Lotus Valley had specifically passed through the Dual Lotus Manor Territory, Burning Phoenix Ridge Territory, Soul Palace Territory, and the Poison Rift Valley Territory to avoid the Emperor Sword Sect but they ambushed their path.
However, if it were just them, it would've been easier to defend, but they also got attacked by assassins from the wicked path, ultimately encumbering them a lot.
Davis was astonished to hear the collaboration between the Emperor Sword Sect and those assassins who had obviously come from the Poison Rift Valley. It was unknown if those assassins were hired or if they were working together, but considering the Shard Family's atrocities, he was more inclined to believe that these assassins were working together with the Shard Family.
Nonetheless, a big battlefield broke out, and Ivy Aries displayed her full prowess, repelling the Emperor Sword Sect and killing Ancestor Shard while allowing her sect members to leave safely to the Jade Lotus Valley. It seemed that her Valley Master was also there with her, and together, they escaped into the rifts of the Poison Rift Valley Territory.
As a result, there wasn't a single causality in the Jade Lotus Valley, but there were many in the Emperor Sword Sect who then returned and holed up in the Emperor Sword Sect.
This was Yotan's account of the Jade Lotus Valley's encounter. It seemed more detailed than what the All-Seeing Emperor told him, meaning that Yotan could've been watching this encounter personally while hidden in the shadows. However, he didn't blame her, considering that she was powerless to help with her current prowess.
"I apologize. I had my eyes on the Four Great Righteous Sects, monitoring if they were up to something."
Abruptly, Lea, who was silent all this time, opened her mouth.
"It's not your fault, Lea." Davis shook his head, "Ivy Aries even bragged that we wouldn't be able to do anything against their Guardian Lotus, but it was a pity that they were ambushed before they could make it back. We couldn't do anything about this matter, but there's no need to worry. It's not like I don't care about her life and death personally, but it would be a shame if she were to die since she's Old Man Garvin's descendant."
Lea blinked. So Davis didn't have his eyes on Ivy Aries?
