Chapter 3091: Chapter 2290 Demanding An Answer

Chapter 2290 Demanding An Answer

A set of razor-sharp teeth moved while the ominous third eye on the arachnid head locked onto Davis and Evelynn. The third eye displayed a spectrum of three hues from top to bottom, crimson, sapphire, and azure, glowing with sharpness and grandeur.

The sharp fangs stretching out of the mouth oozed a purplish poisonous aura while its eight legs stabbed onto the ground. Each segment was more flexible than the last, but the final segment of the legs possessed a curved scythe capable of carving apart flesh into pieces.

Davis and Evelynn momentarily looked absentminded as each feature of the Emperor-Tier Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Arachnid was refined and majestic to gaze at; her exquisite obsidian body revealed a menacing yet elegant gleam.

"…!"

Instantly, they returned to their senses upon being called out, their expressions turning into a grimace as they knew that they were almost caught off-guard. At the same time, it didn't take them much to sense that they weren't a match for the Emperor-Tier Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Arachnid, as Myria denoted. However, they didn't regret entering, a resounding voice echoing from their side.

"What's the meaning of taking possession of me? I demand an answer from you, Empress Hex Arachnid."

Evelynn took two steps forwards and waved her hand, her expression appearing solemn.

The Emperor-Tier Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Arachnid remained staring at them for a few seconds before her third eye closed, her two eyes blinking with creepiness, although it appeared somewhat innocent.

"I must say that it's quite embarrassing to admit that I lost control of my soul to my other half."

"Other half?" Evelynn raised her brows as she acted ignorant.

"My heart demon; my other incarnation that wants to destroy everything as a form of vengeance. Therefore, it got the better of me and took control of you."

Davis and Evelynn turned to gaze at each other, thinking that their assumption about the Empress Hex Arachnid having a heart demon was correct, although it was Myria's assumption.

"Even if that was the case, don't Empress Hex Arachnid think that it is inappropriate to take over the trialist and cause injury in both heart and soul? I think Empress Hex Arachnid should've at least warned me if you were aware of your heart demon in the first place."

However, Evelynn didn't let the matter come to rest. At the very least, she was completely incensed about this matter.

What if she had harmed Davis and the others?

She would've never been able to forgive herself.

The Empress Hex Arachnid gazed at them with her two big eyes before a heavy breath escaped from her large mouth.

"My apologies for the distress I caused you, but hear me out, for I am sincere in my words as my heart demon had never shown itself ever since I appeared here. I had no way of knowing it would emerge as it stayed dormant, but when it did, it had already embedded unto you using my blood essence. But still, here you are safe and sound, willing to take my inheritance as fate wills it."

Abruptly, Empress Hex Arachnid's gaze fell on Davis, causing him to feel as though his secrets were laid bare.

"Young man, back then, your wife me told you were very strong, even threatening me that you wouldn't leave me alive since she was injured in the trial, but I sense that you're even stronger than that time. However, your karmic burden... even such a prowess is futile in front of the tribulations you will face."

"…"

Davis couldn't help but want to look at Evelynn, wondering why she went and praised him to death in front of existence like the Empress Hex Arachnid, as he had just experienced the concept of being praised to death. However, his expression remained solemn, and he wasn't surprised by its latter sentence.

After all, the Empress Hex Arachnid's heart demon found out that he had Fallen Heaven, exclaiming that it was a true apex treasure or something of that sort.

He was only surprised at the fact that Empress Hex Arachnid was able to sense his karmic burden.

But on the other hand, Evelynn worriedly gazed at Davis.

Even Empress Hex Arachnid acknowledged that Davis's future was stormy while citing his karmic burden.

"I saw you through Evelynn, but instead of killing her, you managed to work with Fiend Myria and save Evelynn. I don't know how I should thank you, but I sincerely commend you for protecting her like a true husband."

"You thought I wasn't?"

Davis gawked at the Empress Hex Arachnid, almost about to berate her when the latter continued, shaking her head.

"I am not supposed to pry into the life of others as its tasteless but… betrayals and abandonment with or without circumstances are rather… commonplace… especially applies to someone like you who holds a terrifying aspect that causes the heaven's to seethe with anger. Do you really… trust your women with your life that stands at the edge of a cliff all the time? Not making a move to kill her while she was held hostage by my heart demon? You have so many women to speak of, so why…? Why did you protect Evelynn while risking your own life?"

The Empress Hex Arachnid sounded bewildered and intrigued.

However, Davis's brows frowned. He didn't want to talk about Fallen Heaven, but he could see Empress Hex Arachnid using vague words to not let Evelynn incur karmic burden.

"Evelynn already has some karmic burden in regards to your terrifying aspect since she has gained some knowledge while always being with you, so you don't need to worry until you completely reveal it." The Empress Hex Arachnid's big mouth widened, displaying her razor-sharp teeth that sent chills down their spine, "After all, compared to the bag of rice you have, hers is nothing but a grain of rice."

However, Davis understood that Empress Hex Arachnid was laying his worries to rest, although whether he believed it or not was something else altogether.

"Even if you ask me that…" Davis possessed a difficult expression on his face, "I don't have a convincing answer. I love her, and I do what I do, which is protect her. Is something wrong with that?"

"…"

The Empress Hex Arachnid seemed to go silent, almost as if taken aback, before her body shook as though she was giggling.

"Perhaps, some people really don't care about ambitions…"

"Ambitions?" Davis made an 'O' face before he nodded, "My greatest ambition is to make a large family with Evelynn and my other beauties, but to that end, I need power, one that denies anyone the thought of thinking about taking advantage of us in any way; which is absolute power. Everything is connected, so I also have the ambition of aiming for the peak like anyone else in the world."

He thought if Empress Hex Arachnid was checking if he had the motivation to overcome his adversities and answered truthfully.

On the other hand, Empress Hex Arachnid's eyes had narrowed.

"Everything is connected…"

She slowly repeated his words before nodding her head repeatedly.

"Young man, your words are apt. However, depending on the priority of your many ambitions, do you agree the way you would treat them would change?"

"Yes." Davis thought it was rather obvious.

"I see. Not many are foolish like you, keeping their wives as priorities when they could get there are many women in the sea while there is only one life for you."

"Foolish…" Davis couldn't help but disdainfully chuckle, "… who decides that?"

"The world."

The Empress Hex Arachnid's melodious voice was firm, but Davis's eyes flashed with a mocking expression.

"The world decided you and your race should not exist. Should we go with that?"

"…"

The Empress Hex Arachnid's eyes went wide at the provocation before she couldn't help but giggle.

"Although our race's circumstances are an exception, young man really has a convincing way of arguing. I admit defeat."

'Were we fighting…?' Davis blinked, "What do you want to know by asking all these trivialities?"

"My Three-Eyed Chromatic Hex Arachnid Race was betrayed by our allies. I just want to make sure that the same fate doesn't befall my inheritor, especially since she blindly worships you. Otherwise, she might form a heart demon worse than me."

"…"

Davis wanted to argue that he wouldn't betray Evelynn, but then, catching a glimpse of her expression that had gone beyond blushing that even her ears were red, he couldn't help but inwardly give a thumbs up to the Empress Hex Arachnid.

"Fortunately, your actions have proved that you're worthy of trust from my inheritor. I won't make a move to kill you."

"…"

Is that why he was being questioned?

'Wait a minute... was Empress Hex Arachnid protective of Evelynn in the first place?'

Davis couldn't understand, his lips moving, "So you're truly allowing my lovely wife to take the inheritance?"

"You thought I would refuse my only hope?"

Davis nodded, thinking that it was well within his expectation, but his brows narrowed.

"Have you suppressed your heart demon?"

"I did, but not completely, so it's possible for it to reawaken at any time, even now."

"…"

Although well aware of the current threat, Davis wanted to somehow beat Empress Hex Arachnid to a pulp for her half-assed way of conducting a trial!

But at this moment, the materialized image of Empress Hex Arachnid flashed as she became smaller, resembling the silhouette of a human woman before her appearance became clear.

"…"

Davis's hostile state instantly turned into one of great surprise as he held his breath at the moon-waning beauty in front of him.
