Chapter 2910: Chapter 1604 – The Deal

Chapter 1604 – The Deal

Davis's body trembled as he held Shirley's waist.

This gorgeous red-haired woman was actually pregnant with his child? He was already pale as he still felt weak from probably being lifeless for months, but her words almost made him stagger in fright if she didn't hold him tightly. That adrenaline from noticing this possibility left him, making him feel kind of weak, but he began circulating life energy to aid him in his recovery.

Thankfully, Fallen Heaven also seemed to be there in his soul sea. He didn't care about the possible changes for the moment as he circulated its life energy in his body to recover.

"You… how…?"

But Davis still didn't feel articulate.

Abruptly, Isabella dragged him away as she put his hand around her shoulder before Shirley also did the same. Helping him stay on his foot, they strode forwards and made him sit on the bed as they noticed that he was still weak but knew that it was normal.

Numerous thoughts ran on Davis's head before he cast his gaze at them, concluding that he was not in an illusion or another fate but reality. He was back, truly…

"Welcome back, husband…"

Natalya appeared before him as Isabella and Shirley dropped him on the bed. Her eyes were full of tears as she held her hands over her bosoms, tightly clenched as if she had never been so thankful before.

"Natalya…" Davis looked at her, remain unharmed as he felt relaxed.

He was afraid that this woman would make some hasty decisions with her character, but it seems like she didn't. Perhaps, she did, but the others stopped her. He panned his gaze and saw Isabella, the memories from his original fate weighing down on him.

He was pretty sure that he killed her innocent heart in that life.

Such a fate… he didn't want her to experience. His hand reached out as he pulled her suddenly into her embrace, causing Isabella to blink while being teary-eyed.

He planted a gentle kiss on her cheek and stroked her dazzling purple hair as he whispered.

"Everything is going to be alright from now on… You don't have to feel burdened anymore."

"Hck~"

Isabella clenched her teeth as tears kept welling up from her eyes like a tide. She raised her arms and wrapped them around his neck, feeling his warmth hit her face as she felt all her burden drain from her as he said.

Naturally being the strongest, Davis felt that Isabella protected all of them through most adversities and caressed her head with love before he noticed he had no connection with Nadia in his soul.

However, he could sense a visible presence outside that had him raise his brows. That power was very familiar to him as he smiled even though the undulations were barely recognizable.

'I see… So you mutated successfully, Nadia…'

He became overjoyed again, feeling great to be back to his family.

Nevertheless, Evelynn and the others also not seemed to be in this room, but considering that many days should've passed, he understood that not all of them would be crowding in this room in order to let him recover peacefully.

He hoped that they were all safe and asked.

"Where are the others? They're all safe, right?"

Isabella's expression froze while her face was beside his face. She changed her expression into one of a smile before she pulled her head back.

"Everyone is safe and alive. Nadia and I made sure of that."

Davis's expression visibly relaxed, but his Heart Intent could feel something was wrong with Isabella's feelings, as if she still felt guilt.

But hearing the fact that everyone is safe, Davis's thoughts were overwhelmed with Shirley and the child she carried in her belly. He was both mad and overjoyed.

He was mad because he dual cultivated with Evelynn and Isabella with the intent to impregnate them, but Shirley seemingly became pregnant on a single try while he didn't get to experience that feeling to the fullest. He felt scammed.

That moment when he felt like someone was straddling him and that pleasure, he knew that someone had dual cultivated with him, and when he tried to understand why, he came to the conclusion that it was probably someone with the phoenix blood trying to revive him.

Otherwise, it made no sense to him.

Were they purely after his seed? Davis only laughed at that, imagining that at least his legacy would be continued.

Still, it was unfair to the others, especially Evelynn, but he didn't blame Shirley for it either.

She saved him.

What was there to blame?

Instead, he blamed himself for almost dying in the first place. He admonished himself that his foresight wasn't enough. But he also thought that with the fate changer Fallen Heaven, perhaps no amount of foresight was enough.

Moreover, he could even tell why Shirley got pregnant on the first try and knew this might happen if he dual cultivated with her.

In marriage, there was a reason why men took the Dragon's side, to be dominant and pervasive, while there was also the reason why women took the Phoenix's side, to be virtuous and fertile. This also constituted the saying of Dragon and Phoenix coming together for a perfect marriage.

A female Phoenix's fertility was at a higher rate compared to a female Dragon's fertility, while a male Phoenix's virility was drastically lower than a male Dragon's virility. Therefore, Shirley, who received Davis's seed only a single time, became pregnant as though she had won the lottery.

But what's done was done. He felt that Evelynn would understand that Shirley got pregnant by trying to save him.

Abruptly he stood up and moved all of them to his back, looking at the entrance of the garden hall with narrowed eyes.

"That's some hostility you're showing for a person who allowed you to be revived through the grace of the Phoenix."

Davis's lips twitched as he saw an old lady walk in, "Ancestor Cornelia…"

He instantly perceived that Ancestor Cornelia found his true identity, but they let Shirley come here and even revive him by sacrificing her purity?

What kind of luck was this!?

Davis was surprised that he wasn't truly dead yet instead. Nevertheless, noticing that she was just a soul body, he relaxed. Her true body must still be in the Burning Phoenix Ridge, but it didn't matter to him.

"I owe you now?"

He asked while the fairly beautiful old lady smiled.

"This is what I like about you, Emperor of Death."

"Emperor of Death?" Davis pursed his lips as his brows twitched, "That's what I go by now? My title?"

"Indeed. By killing many peak powerhouses, you have earned that title for yourself." Ancestor Cornelia couldn't help but giggle.

"I killed one of your Ancestors, and since you know that I can kill you as well, why would you help me?"

Davis appeared extremely suspicious.

"Firstly, I believe that you would not be stupid enough to use that sacrificial attack of yours only to end up dead again." Ancestor Cornelia raised her hand and pointed above, "Secondly, and the main reason. It's a gamble…"

Davis viewed her with scrutiny and followed her gaze before realizing that it was the Calamity Light. He recalled that there was no Calamity Light in his original fate, meaning that it was probably derived by the fate changer Fallen Heaven again.

He inwardly cursed it before he heard her continue.

"It's obvious that the Calamity Light has grown a bit bigger. Every power is on its toes, and I possess little to no assurance that I would be able to get my power to survive. That's why I decided to gamble on you."

"But how… how did you realize that I was Chu Feng to even make a move in the first place?"

"Ahahaha~"

Ancestor Cornelia couldn't help but laugh as if she found this entirely funny.

"Well, our Shirley slipped that up while using a messaging talisman, only to mention your name and speak with Dragon Queen Isabella, who's behind you."

Davis turned to look back as everyone gazed at Shirley.

Shirley trembled as she lowered her head, "I'm sorry…"

"But that was not the only reason. Your little sister barged into the Burning Phoenix Ridge with that ominous wolf, trying to kidnap Shirley."

"Clara…?"

Davis sharply turned his head to look at his little sister.

Before Clara could say anything, Ancestor Cornelia spoke.

"It was almost impossible for me to have detected that ominous wolf, but fortunately, I kept an eye on Shirley. I saw they were about to leave, so I confronted them. The atmosphere was very tense, and I knew that I might not be able to defeat that wolf you've grown, and even if I was able to, my power bears the risk of destruction even before the Calamity Light descends. Therefore, I struck a deal with Shirley."

"I won't be giving her to you no matter what…"

Davis forcefully stated his opinion. His strong tone made Ancestor Cornelia merely smile, "Of course. You made her pregnant. You have to take responsibility, or otherwise, I, as a Burning Phoenix, wouldn't forgive you."

Davis couldn't help but raise his brows in skepticism again. Her answer was contrary to what he expected. He turned to look at Shirley, who blushed as she looked at him.

"What kind of deal did you make?"

"I…" Shirley felt a bit scared, "At that time when Clara came to me and tried to convince but Ancestor Cornelia overheard what we're talking about, so she came to know about the Immortal Inheritance."

"I'm sorry, brother."

Clara echoed from the side while Shirley also wanted to apologize before Davis stopped them.

"It's fine as I completely understand the circumstances. Tell me what kind of deal did you make with this old Burning Phoenix."
