Chapter 2749: Happenings In the Burning Phoenix Ridge

Chapter 1415 – Happenings In the Burning Phoenix Ridge

Davis looked at the mirror image in front of him floating while grinning back at him.

His expression twitched while his body trembled from the pain of severing thirty percent of his soul essence again. He had just recovered his soul essence to ninety-seven percent a few days ago but ended up spending thirty percent again.

Recovering with life energy was passive, so it didn't interfere with his dual cultivation but instead made it so that he felt strangely comfortable. He had also thought of using life energy on Natalya and Fiora to make them feel unbearably comfortable. It wasn't as if that thought didn't fluctuate past his mind, but he had his thoughts on the matter.

Perhaps, he could make it as a form of reward as he wanted it to be special.

Nevertheless, creating a new Solitary Soul Avatar wasn't a waste. This Solitary Soul Avatar possessed a soul connection with Nadia just like him because of the Beast Taming Pact that occupied his current soul, making it worthwhile for him to create a new one.

He began healing himself as he endured the mind-splitting pain.

After an hour of rest, he took out a messaging talisman.

"Shirley?"

After a minute, her voice resounded out.

"Davis, welcome back."

Shirley sounded ecstatic, seemingly couldn't even stand losing him for an hour.

"Mhm…" Davis couldn't help but smile, "I'm coming back for you…"

After a silent pause, her voice resounded again.

"I would love to have you back, but you have so many things to do there, right?"

Davis blinked, "I do, but are you telling me to leave you there?"

"Davis, you literally got rid of the threats that haunted me. You didn't even spare Vito Rein, whom I was planning to eventually kill if I were to ever get a chance."

"Oh, you found out already?" Davis raised his brows.

Indeed, he had killed Vito Rein while enjoying carnal p.l.e.a.s.u.r.es with his two lovely women.

"Hmph! As far as I know, he's not a caring person. Just because his father and Ancestor Magnus Rein died doesn't mean he would depressingly commit suicide."

Shirley sounded confident that Davis could see she was pridefully grinning from the other side.

He couldn't help but chuckle, "Well, he also had his thing castrated by his elder brother before I even killed him… What do you say to that kind of humiliation caused by his own elder brother who is now dead?"

"With the prowess of the Burning Phoenix Ridge apothecaries, that… thing you mentioned can be regrown, although it would be a far cry from the original, not that it matters to me about what hap- Ugh… In any case, even though losing it may have been extremely humiliating, it's still not enough to make that devious and scheming person commit suicide. Only you could've made him commit suicide with your unknown means that is still a mystery to me…"

"Shirley, you're too smart…" Davis praised before he looked as if he was about to drop a bomb on her, "While informing me about Ancestor Cornelia's whereabouts, Sect Master Lea Weiss had also asked if I had anything to do with Vito Rein's suicide while I said yes to her face."

"What? You actually said that!?"

Her dumbfounded voice resounded, causing Davis to smile lightly. He couldn't help but say.

"Shirley, Sect Master Lea Weiss isn't stupid. Most likely, she already knows that I was the person responsible for Top Disciple Lauren Zucker's death which she was unable to find even with the help of a Mystic Diviner."

"It is rather obvious by now, perhaps even to the ones with a semblance of intelligence in their minds."

"She must've been wondering why I haven't got caught by that Mystic Diviner, and before her curiosity could drive her wild, making her want to uncover my secrets, I got rid of it by telling the truth. I don't want her divining anything that has something to do with me…"

Davis strongly spoke while also feeling that having a Sect Master constantly probe him would be a headache.

Death Laws were not magic that could be written and shaped as anyone wants it to be.

It was unknown to him if it could block someone's probe if it were not for the concealment, which may be unique to Fallen Heaven for all he knew. Even then, he naturally wasn't going to let Vito Rein live past this point and already had a hunch that Sect Master Lea Weiss would not dare to offend him since they also had many things at stake with him.

For example, to get the complete manual of the Incandescent Vermilion Soul Mantra, they would have no choice but to swallow this little offense. Otherwise, they risk not getting it.

"…"

Silence became prevalent on the other side. It was a few seconds before Shirley's voice began to echo again.

"Still, you could've just played dumb…"

"What kind of terrifying expert plays dumb, Shirley? To tease and make them fear, it's okay, but to hide, no. I've already established my image as a threatening and calamitous individual. You can't possibly expect me to play dumb as that would make them look down on me…"

"Sigh, you're right. I failed to consider that…" Shirley sounded relieved, "By the looks of it, Sect Master Lea Weiss was unable to do anything to you?"

"Who knows what she wants? She actually said thank you and took off…" Davis rolled his eyes, looking exasperated, "As for whether the thanks was for not playing dumb or secretly killing Vito Rein, who knows?"

"Mhmmm…." A sound of suspicion emerged from Shirley, "Perhaps, she also wanted to kill Valerian's sons because her Burning Phoenix was like a daughter to her?"

"Could be… An eye for an eye along with killing the responsible is truly apt." Davis couldn't help but chuckle.

"I understand as well. If I were to lose Freya to the Reins, I'm massacring the entire Rein Family. However, I already want to massacre them because I saw you die."

"Don't. We've already taken revenge." Davis warned, feeling like they had already killed enough.

Furthermore, he definitely didn't want her to be condemned by the world, nor by the heavens. If she wanted to massacre, then he felt like he could do the job as he vaguely felt like Karmic Laws had no rule over him because of Fallen Heaven.

He had killed so many people and yet, no unlucky situations yet as dictated by the words of ancients ancestors who were skilled in Karmic Laws?

He couldn't help but doubt their credibility now.

"I'm not satisfied, but I'm in no position to act like a tyrant either, so I'll follow your words as I also thought the same." Shirley answered with a sigh.

"What if you become strong enough? You'll kill everyone, including the innocents and children?" Davis raised his brows in doubt.

"Naturally… What they plotted for capturing me, I don't know, but since they made you almost die, I'll follow the teaching of my overbearing Ashton Family ancestors in this case. Never leave the descendants of your sworn enemies alive unless they swear fealty to you, are the words left in the book of Ancestral Mandates that has been recorded in the Grand Ashton's Imperial Library."

"Ahaha, arrogance is deeply flowing in your blood like your ancestors, Shirley." Davis couldn't help but laugh, "I love it!"

It was she who had released the limiter that he had put on himself. He thought arrogance was something sinful until he saw understood that it was a trait that made the people here respect him, for if he was humble, they would more likely step over him if they were schemers and opportunists.

Humbleness was not a sign of elegance but weakness in this place. However, that couldn't be completely ruled out as humbleness was indeed a sign of elegance, but only if the truly capable and powerful people adopted it. If a weak person was humble, that was truly a weakness instead of being strong, their natural state.

"I mean," Shirley sounded embarrassed, "Personally, I don't think I have the heart to kill little children. I think I'll just enslave them until they come of age and then kill them if they don't swear complete fealty. In this world that uses fists to do the talking, it is their fault for being born into the Rein Family because when the Rein Family does something wrong and profits from it, they also stand to gain their whole lives. Sounds fair, right?"

Davis became speechless before he understood, "Sounds fair. I don't want to kill children too, but when rage takes over, you wouldn't even notice that there any children until you have already killed them."

He sounded as if consoling her.

"Indeed…" Shirley agreed wholeheartedly, "In any case, what remains in the Burning Phoenix Ridge are the people protecting me, not to mention that you basically confirmed that Ancestor Cornelia has secretly taken residence near my crimson palace, posing as an old lady with Law Sea Stage Cultivation with the help of a High-Level Emperor Grade Illusion-Attributed Artifact Treasure."

If it weren't for Ancestor Cornelia being nearby, she wouldn't have taken much time to answer Davis when she was already waiting for him in the first place. She had literally gone to the bathroom as she didn't want Ancestor Cornelia spying on her, though it may just be a minute amount of possibility as she couldn't imagine that Ancestor Cornelia would want to pick a fight with the Death Law Cultivator at this point.

"Yes," Davis agreed, "If Sect Master Lea Weiss hadn't informed me so I wouldn't have to needlessly suspect and battle against Ancestor Cornelia for hiding nearby, I wouldn't have known either. But it's a pity that Ancestor Cornelia chased me away as soon as I came to chat with her about gathering information about the Four Grand Skyfire Magical Beasts. Guess she just didn't want me to gain the upper hand anymore…"

"If I were Ancestor Cornelia, I would also like to stay away from you, the mysterious yet calamitous star, as much as possible. Hehehe…"

Shirley melodiously giggled from the other side, making him purse his lips as he shook his head.

"So you really don't want me to head to your sect?" A confirming voice echoed.

"It's not like that. Come here when you're absolutely free, okay? You have your other women to take care of and Isabella to marry. Unfortunately, I think I wouldn't be able to attend. Although it may be selfish of me, I think I'll pass watching you marry other women. It would just make me more jealous, and perhaps, I'll bother you to marry me before Isabella. Hehe…"

Her wry laugh echoed.

Davis could only scratch his head, finding himself at a loss for words.

"I'll be safe because of the deal you made with Ancestor Cornelia, so don't worry. I'll be in contact with you every day with this messaging talisman, so if any changes occur that grasps my curiosity or needs attention, I'll quickly inform you."

Shirley sounded as if she was trying to convince.

"Good!"

Davis couldn't help but nod in response.

"But remember one thing…"
