Chapter 3008: Don't Use Me

Chapter 2207: Don't Use Me

Hex energy revolved around Myria, trying to penetrate the barrier of life energy as the four spider bones trembled. No matter how sharp and strong the bones were, they were unable to pierce through.

Myria turned around, her eyes still appearing clear, not at all angered, even though this attempt could be seen as an act of assassination. After all, reflected in her eyes was a contorted expression of a woman with a thick murderous intent brewing from her three eyes, one that shone crimson as though it was going to unleash the Collapse Hex.

“Don’t use me to control my husband. I will kill you even if you’re my benefactor.”

Evelynn clenched her teeth, her entire body shuddering as she hatefully gazed at Myria, who simply smiled.

“One look at your eyes, and I can tell that you have the qualities to become a Fiend but not the power. You’re kind, but that kindness is twisted, just like mine. I like it.”

“…”

Evelynn was momentarily taken aback, but her murderous intent rose once again, mixing with the tears that dripped down her eyes unknowingly.

“Oh? The Saintess actually accepts that she was once kind?”

“…”

Davis appeared between them as he looked at Myria, who furrowed her brows before turning around and leaving. He watched her leave and walk down the stairs before her figure disappeared, seeming like she didn’t take offense to Evelynn’s attempt at harming her.

He turned to look at Evelynn, his stern and cold eyes becoming gentle as he raised his hand and wrapped her into his embrace.

“Don’t be so angered, Evelynn. She was just testing me like I test everyone else, a perk of being the stronger one or having leverage over the other.”

“This is different…” Evelynn raised her head from his chest, biting her lips, “She dared to use me to control you…”

“Alright, alright. Just take this as a prelude.” Davis patted her head consolingly, “There are more trials waiting for us, so let’s face it together.”

He raised his head and looked at the others, garnering approving nods and smiles from them. However, Evelynn captured his cheeks and made him look at her again.

“Trials or not. Don’t give up a way to save your life just because of me. If I find out that you’re really no longer alive, then I will not live in a world without you~”

Her tears began spilling again, causing Davis to wryly smile as he instantly wiped those shining crystals off her face.

“Don’t. Try to revive me or something…”

Evelynn couldn’t help but blush upon hearing something so crazy, “I’m not you to even have that possibility or even that stupid Myria…”

“Well, in that case, use your hex to curse me into reviving and living with you forever.”

Davis chuckled, causing Evelynn’s eyes to brighten, “T-That doesn’t sound bad at all~”

“In that case, don’t forget to curse me as well!”

Natalya butt in between them, her eyes gleaming with craziness.

“I’m in!”

“Me too!”

The others began chorusing their voices, making Evelynn blush silly as she struggled away from his embrace.

“I’m just kidding! Who’s going to curse my husband and sisters? I’ll have an eternal grudge with them!”

“Ahahaha~”

They had a good laugh, holding their tummies as they bent over.

It wasn’t long before they started to leave the ninth floor, leaving it empty.

Although they were smiling, they were, in truth, distraught. Their heart rate quickened abnormally as they made their way down the floors.

After all, not only were they depressed by the fact that Davis’s plans to have stability in the immortal world had probably gone astray, they were afraid that they would not be able to see their loved ones here for years or even millenniums because it was possible that they would be forced to ascend without being allowed to leave, or the time to remain here having become incredibly shortened, consequently making them leave with Davis decisively.

Unlike Davis, who hoped in the assumption that the ascension gate wouldn’t instantly make them ascend and that he could take the people he cared about, the women were skeptical and couldn’t naturally help but worry, afraid that they wouldn’t see their families before being unfairly forced to ascend. For the same reason, Isabella and Shirley were deeply afraid that they would have to leave their children behind, not to mention Tia and Clara were saddened by this matter, afraid that they might no longer see their parents and siblings.

That’s why they gathered and slept around Davis, wanting to feel secure for the past half a day because that’s when Davis broke through to the High-Level Law Rune Stage.

But more than the previous matter, they were more afraid of something else.

What if Davis’s forced ascension this time was different because he didn’t go through the Immortal Tribulation?

After all, it was unknown if the rule forcing Davis to ascend would allow him to take others when he was actually being truly thrown out because he had reached the threshold of an Immortal Powerhouse even before reaching the Immortal Stage!

They weren’t afraid to die along together with him but dying one by one, watching their loved ones depart the world or never to see again, they were indeed afraid. However, to be left behind by him, that very thought had them shaking to their very core.

Amidst them, only Lea had the confidence to follow him through crossing her own heavenly tribulation because she was almost going to reach the peak in all three of her cultivation systems, but unlike her, the others were apprehensive.

Schleya was an exception because she only had Mingzhi and Davis ready to face anything, even staying to protect Mingzhi and his family.

Unlike them, Davis was thinking of something else, lamenting that he couldn’t use the Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace properly.

After all, he doesn’t completely believe Lereza, the palace spirit, and even tried to confront her to come up with more plans, but with her remaining un-cooperative, he just couldn’t keep his loved ones inside the palace or stay for a longer time as he didn’t know what exactly she was planning. Consequently, his thoughts were to get the treasures and exit now rather than be subjected to a death trap here, feeling that the odds were actually better for him in the immortal world.

For example, with his body combining or tempered with Chaos, would he become eligible as a sacrifice for something?

He had his own thoughts about staying even for a while longer. After all, in his attempt to confront the palace spirit, he probably offended her. In that situation, he felt that it was better to exit than stay, consequently delaying his plan to take the Spirit-Tier Supreme Ebbing Sigil Pill.

While Davis and the beauties finally arrived on the first floor, Myria was already in front of a spatial vortex, seemingly waiting for them with her back faced against them.

He walked over and arrived beside her, his women standing behind him as they side-eyed Myria, still looking somewhat offended. Even Shirley didn’t seem amused by Myria’s actions.

“I still have not let go of those treasures yet.”

“Myria! You-“

Shirley clenched her teeth as she strode towards Myria, but then a hand abruptly stopped her from moving another step forwards. She still angrily looked over to see who it was and saw that it was Davis, to her astonishment.

Davis lowered his hand as he raised one of his brows, “You’re the one who returned them back to me.”

“Yes,” Myria unceremoniously nodded, “But I would still like to claim twenty percent of the Chaos Essence Orb for various purposes. Unlike the other Essence Orbs that were at the Immortal Grade, the Chaos Essence Orb is an Immortal King Grade Treasure, so you’ll still have more than enough energy to accommodate your own needs.”

To Myria’s words, Davis couldn’t help but blink.

“Is separation possible?”

“I have my methods.” Myria nodded, “It’s a pure essence orb that is stable and not volatile… not a piece of immortal rock that requires raw power to divide.”

Davis half-heartedly nodded before he contemplated the exchange she proposed. Only the twenty percent of Chaos Essence Orb in exchange for relieving him of that ungodly karmic binding.

“Alright, if that’s the case, then it seems like a good exchange to clear my debts.”

“Then we have a deal.”

The both of them nodded, returning their gaze to the spatial vortex as though nothing had happened.

‘This is what should’ve taken place!’

Davis inwardly screamed to the smoothness of this exchange, thinking that the whole distasteful confrontation could have been avoided. Nonetheless, he could do nothing about it as he might’ve acted the same as Myria if he had the advantage over some other person, determining if they’re really worth the treasures or cooperation.

In some aspects, he couldn’t help but admire her as she thought the same as him, making him feel complex.

Shaking his head, he turned to look back at Isabella and Shirley, assuring them with his eyes as he felt their worry deepen after nearing the exit vortex. Becoming relaxed, they returned a forced smile, causing him to turn around and gaze at the vortex.

“I agree to leave~”

“I agree to leave.”

“I agree to leave~~~”

Following Myria and Davis, the others echoed in unison as the dormant spatial vortex became bigger, seemingly growing like a black hole that could engulf them into the void, but it stopped growing, spinning in a stable manner as it granted them the path of exit.

Both Davis and Myria exited at the same time, followed by the others.

When they all left and arrived on the other side, the heaven and earth rumbled, and then something flew out of the spatial gate, causing Davis to gawk as he saw that it was Nine-Treasured Immortal Ordeal Palace, except that it was a tiny palace that was like a toy house, flying into his forehead as it disappeared into his soul sea.

“Hmph! I’ll take residence for some time here. Oh? I’ve got a few neighbors too?”

Came Lereza’s adventurous voice that made Davis dumbfounded. However, just before he could become enraged and yell at her, he saw that the spatial gate was closing, not to mention that his nerves instantly became taut on sensing the changes in the atmosphere of the others.

“Mhm…?”

He looked above but saw that there were no changes to the windy skies, not a single ascension gate appearing, nor did the wind blades seem to be affecting them here because of the spatial changes. Was he still not out of that mystic realm?

“…!”

Abruptly, his eyes went wide, knowing exactly why there wasn’t an ascension gate appearing out of nowhere, while the others became stiff, their eyes wide with disbelief.

Myria clenched her teeth, her eyes squinting into two tiny slits.

“Immortals have invaded…? What’s going on!?”
