Chapter 1744: Congratulations
After Davis left s.h.i.+rley, he was on his way to see Natalya and compare his Law Sea Stage Cultivation with hers when he suddenly found two black-robed women in the distant corner as they almost walked past, although one of them was wearing a reddish-black robe that greatly accentuated her blood-red hair that shone crimson under the ambiance of the hallways.
His figure disappeared before he arrived in front of them, standing tall with an imposing bearing as he made them retreat two steps back as they took a hostile posture.
"Woah~ Don't scare me like that, Davis..."
Mo Mingzhi patted her bosoms before she heaved a breath while the woman with the dazzling blood-red hair narrowed her eyes, still feeling stiff under his presence.
"But..." Mo Mingzhi spread her hands and grinned, "This is perfect. You're both here, so talk it out already."
She patted Davis's shoulder and moved away to give them privacy. On the other hand, Davis turned to look at Schleya, wondering how he should placate her. He had delayed seeing her already for a week between the Dragon Families showing up and marrying s.h.i.+rley, so he felt that it was time that he confronted her already.
"I heard that you behaved yourself these past few months. Well done."
Davis smirked with an above-all att.i.tude, to which, Schleya didn't seem amused as she folded her pale white hands and looked at him with wide eyes as her s.e.xy, crimson lips moved.
"Your praise doesn't mean anything to me."
"That's good." Davis kept his smile as he nodded, "I don't think I complimented you either as I've just stated that you were not a headache these past few months."
"You...!"
Schleya clenched her teeth at him as if baring her fangs while Davis felt that he finally broke her facade.
"Haha. I was just hoping that you would forgive my transgression on that day. Still, it's fine if you don't. It's just; Mo Mingzhi would annoy me."
His demeanor instantly became soft. However, that came off as whimsical and sounded like he didn't want to take responsibility for his actions on that day, making Schleya look at him with her expression appearing a bit hurt.
"How can you expect me to forgive you when you have no sincerity...?"
Her melodious voice sounded aggrieved than trying to pick a fight, which made Davis blink.
The fact was, this woman had no amount of karmic sin on her, and yet, she made it to this level, becoming the Young Mistress, the Young Blood Demoness of the Blood Pledge Villa.
For the wicked path experts, karmic sin is a boon for them, although it still cost them a difficult heavenly tribulation, which he found out that there are methods to hide their karmic sin from the heavens. Nevertheless, her talent was as good as the Poison Lord's, perhaps even nearing Bylai Zlatan.
Davis reached out his hand and gestured, stripping her of the cultivation seal he imposed on her through using a spirit formation technique. While Schleya became shocked to feel her cultivation become active, Davis clasped his hands and bowed his head ninety degrees.
"I am very sorry for the cruel and immoral things I did to you on that day. I feel like s.h.i.+t to have scarred you while I selfishly a.s.sumed that you were wicked as you were from the wicked path. I know it's my wrong, so I hope that you can forgive me."
Davis felt uncomfortable bowing but said his piece with an apologetic intent and raised his head, looking at her expression become strange as if she couldn't believe what she had just seen and heard.
'Did she even hear my heartfelt apology...?'
Davis had his doubts, but he didn't worry about it and spoke.
"As I said, you don't need to voice out your-"
"I... forgive you."
Schleya quickly spoke as she interrupted him, causing Davis to blink at her as if asking 'what?', which made her look away.
Truthfully, she liked it here. Not only was it peaceful, but there was no sense of danger, making her feel comfortable learning to live and enjoy life instead of just competing and surviving. It was vastly different from how the wicked path cultivators lived. However, this kind of life also tried to rob her will to cultivate and made her serene, which went against her cultivation method even though this was how she tried to keep herself.
On the other hand, Davis felt that he was forgiven easily that he couldn't believe it.
Was an apology enough for ripping her legs off with cruelty and threatening to violate her, even if it was just to scare her into forgetting that he came from the righteous path?
Even he felt shameless to let this go just like that!
"How about this?" Davis couldn't help but wryly smile, "I'll personally help you reach the peak of Ninth Stage and even take care of your grievances if you have any. You can't deny my offer, okay?"
Schleya became shocked as she blinked at him.
"Truly...?"
She couldn't help but voice out her doubt, to which Davis patted his chest.
"I don't have the habit of going back on my words for the most part."
"..."
Schleya lowered her head, descending into contemplation.
She wanted to ask him to kill the Villa Master, but the hatred in her heart demanded that she do it herself. The will to cultivate that was being eroded returned as her motivation reached its high. If the Emperor of Death was willing to feed her with resources, then killing the Blood Pledge Villa's Villa Master wouldn't be a dream!
She raised her head, her crimson eyes s.h.i.+ning in a peculiar light as she nodded her head.
"I'll accept this offer."
"Good."
Davis widely smiled before he turned around and looked at Mo Mingzhi.
"Also, thank you for sheltering me..."
Suddenly came a hesitant voice from behind, causing him to return his gaze to Schleya.
"You're welcome."
Davis shot a bright smile at her before leaving a dumbfounded Schleya.
"Ah~"
He picked up Mo Mingzhi into a princess carry and carried her, walking towards her room.
"Little Mingzhi, what were you doing?"
Davis called her endearingly, causing Mo Mingzhi to look at him with love.
"I was simply bored and explored the Purple Guest Palace with Schleya, but darling, you look so handsome~"
She pulled herself to him using his shoulder and kissed his cheek, leaving many captivating kiss marks on him, which made Davis laugh. By the time he arrived in front of her room and entered, his rod was standing tall, making a tent on his pant from her constant actions that appeared as if she was marking him like he was her territory.
"Mingzhi, you little minx." Davis asked as he put her down, "Do you really want to seduce me now?"
"Yes~"
Mo Mingzhi's coquettish voice echoed as she grinned at him, her eyes appearing to be in heat.
Davis could no longer hold back and stripped her off her elegant black robe, revealing her fair, white beautiful a.s.sets that deeply attracted him.
The next few hours, he made love with her as he moved her around, doing her everywhere in many positions while making her give off licentious moans. Erotic squelching and clapping sounds echoed many times in her room before they finally settled on the bed, holding each other with satisfied smiles on their faces.
Mo Mingzhi took a contraceptive pill of her own, telling him that two kids were enough for the moment until they could stay clear of the Calamity Light or overcome it, which made Davis praise her and 'love' her more.
"Davis, instead of only apologizing, why are you bewitching her with your actions?"
While drawing his name on his chest as she roamed with her finger, Mo Mingzhi asked.
"Huh? When did I do that?"
Davis furrowed his brows, appearing to be unaware, which made Mo Mingzhi feel amused.
Did he not know, or was he acting?
"Sigh, be aware of your charms like we ladies are, okay? You are a Soul Emperor of the highest authority, not to mention a Martial Overlord with immense vitality belonging to a dragon. The majority of the women will feel naturally attracted to your invisible aura, okay?"
"But... I suppress both auras..." Davis couldn't help but argue.
Most people would just emanate their overbearing auras in order to appear as great as they are, but Davis was different in this regard.
He had learned the habit of always suppressing his aura from a young age since he didn't want to show off for the most part unless required. Besides, this was a useful form of training for his concealment in his early years, helping him become highly proficient in it, and combined with using Death Laws in the latter years, it practically made his concealment invincible under a few levels above from him.
"Sigh, so what if you suppress? They still know that you're a grand person, but you're acting so nice towards them. Isn't this the same as a master being nice to the slave, unwittingly making the slave woman fall in love with her master? I feel like you have some thoughts on that..."
"..."
Davis shook his head with a smile.
"You also heard about Ellia..."
"Davis, once you form a big harem, it's difficult to keep many secrets." Mo Mingzhi smirked, "Anything you share with your women, it'll spread among your other women."
"I never put a seal on their lips to this sort of information anyway."
"Oh? You mean to say that there is information that you kept us from sharing? How cruel... This is a betrayal to the sisterhood~"
"Ahaha."
Looking at Mo Mingzhi act dramatic as she appeared crestfallen, Davis couldn't help but laugh. But suddenly, Davis raised his hand as a messaging talisman appeared in his hand before it glowed.
"Davis," s.h.i.+rley's voice echoed from the stone, "Esvele and I were bored when Isabella and Evelynn showed up with the gifts, so we went through it, but we found something peculiar in the Mystic Ice Sect's gift."
"What?"
Davis almost sat up in shock before s.h.i.+rley's voice could be heard again.
"Come and see it for yourself. This is truly a serious issue."
Davis quickly dressed up while Mo Mingzhi did the same. They quickly arrived in s.h.i.+rley's place and saw the bevy of women before they saw s.h.i.+rley holding a letter in her hand.
s.h.i.+rley unceremoniously flicked it towards him before he captured it, taking a look at it with narrowed eyes.
[Congratulations, s.h.i.+rley. As for your husband, I don't have time to deal with that arrogant kid. However, I have a piece of warning for him even though he might already be aware. Brat, don't be full of conceit and remain here, thinking you can do whatever you want or trying to be the world's hero. Even if you have your master called 'Chu Feng' whose true intentions are unknown, you practically have zero percent chance to survive, so you better ascend quickly, or else I won't forgive you for ruining s.h.i.+rley's life.]
"...!?"
Davis's pupils were dilated as he finished reading the letter.
