Chapter 3836 Inwardly Determined?
Chapter 3836 Inwardly Determined?
Boom!~
Tanya shot into the room, her icy sword leaping out of her dantian as she grasped it and dashed towards her husband. However, she came to a stop as she saw no one there.
Davis sat up, blinking at Tanya.
"Did I startle you?"
"You startled everyone."
Hearing Davis's question, Tanya simultaneously realized that there was no intruder and that it was just Davis releasing his killing intent.
"I thought someone broke in to assassinate you."
She shook her head, informing Stella that nothing was of concern, as the latter was alarmed but still kept an eye outside.
"Well," Davis pursed his lips before leaning back on the bed again, "I admit that it was unlike me to exude killing intent without an opponent present. I guess I lost my composure."
He chuckled wryly, sitting back up again, "Alright, if you don't mind, I'll use the Solitary Soul Avatar Technique and create a new avatar. At that time, I would feel extremely exhausted, so I would go to sleep even without anyone having to remind me again and again. At that time, I'll rely on you to protect me."
"Of course~" Tanya finally smiled, "Why would I mind? It would be my pleasure to guard you."
"You're making me feel embarassed…"
Davis rubbed his head as he smiled lightly, "Tanya, I love how powerful you and the others are. It drastically decreases my burden, but that shouldn't be my excuse to slack. I should be the one outside, keeping an eye. I should be the one quelling the troubles as the leader of the family. Otherwise, I should just abdicate the throne."
"My love~"
Tanya kept her sword inside her dantian and walked towards him, arriving at the edge of the bed before she gazed at him with a gentle gaze.
"You're too hard on yourself. I still remember how powerful you were, and that hasn't changed just because we got powerful. It's only a matter of time and place before you become an Immortal Emperor and not a single one of us can match you again. I'm looking forward to it, so you could motivate us to surpass you once again."
"…"
Davis didn't reply to Tanya's praiseworthy and consoling words but kept smiling.
It was unknown if he would ever get the chance to ascend to the Immortal Emperor Stage when it mattered the most. Otherwise, would it matter if he became powerful and had nothing to protect?
It would be Tia's storybook all over again.
He wanted to avoid such a future, so he didn't dare rashly make a move to go save his friends either.
Tanya didn't leave. She pondered for a moment before she sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out her hand to grab his hand. She knew he was feeling down because he couldn't go save his friends or, otherwise, would endanger them all.
The situation was quite crappy—no, it was a double-edged sword situation, or perhaps a triple-edge with the third being on the handle?
Do nothing, and the blade will weigh in time and pierce one's own palm. She didn't have Heart intent, but she could tell his heart was slowly being pierced through even without having to take a single step, as not doing anything would mean abandoning them.
"Should I… try calling my master?" She offered.
"The Frostcloud Sword Empress…?" Davis didn't look taken aback, as though he had already considered this, "You must know that she's also a Divergent. If she comes out, she will be hunted too. I've been marked as an extreme threat, and even High-Level Empyreans and Autarchs are searching for me. You would be implicating your master."
"…"
Tanya's expression wilted. It wasn't like she didn't know, but she hoped that her master would surprise her by being a powerful Empyrean who could turn the tides. Perhaps she was asking for too much, but she could still remember what her master said when she was taken in as a personal disciple.
[
"Frostcloud Sword Empress, please accept this kowtow of mine as you take me in as your disciple."
Tanya kowtowed once, but her head didn't reach the ground but stayed mid-air. Still, it caused the Frostcloud Sword Empress to nod gently.
"Good child. From now on, you are my personal disciple. If a problem makes you suffer, bring it to me in the immortal world. I will solve it for you."
"Yes~"
]
Thinking back, Tanya felt that the problem that the Frostcloud Sword Empress said she might be willing to deal with shouldn't be this big. Besides, it was unknown if her master would even recognize her since the one she talked to was nothing but a remnant soul.
Perhaps her master had ways to learn karmically, but she had no idea. However, she knew the Frigid Veil Sword Style would be irrefutable proof that she was the Frostcloud Sword Empress's personal disciple.
As long as she had that, she wasn't worried that her master would fail to recognize her.
"Besides, if I am going to rely on your master, then I would have no face to meet Saintess Lunaria after all those insults I hurled at her. Perhaps I should just contact her if I'm going to allow you to contact your master."
Davis chuckled.
He had considered throwing his disappointment with Saintess Lunaria out the window. Then again, it would mean endangering her life if she accepted his request for help. He would have no face to meet the World Master who sacrificed herself then.
Her last wish was to be revived, but even more than that, she always looked after Saintess Lunaria. Saintess Lunaria was practically the World Master's daughter, sharing similar circumstances as him and Myria if he were to go one lifetime earlier.
"Maybe you should if you don't find it a bit…" Tanya suggested but didn't say.
"What? Embarrassing?" Davis's lips curled as he reached out his hand and touched Tanya's face, caressing her soft cheek, "I'm the type to kowtow and ask for help if you were in danger, especially if I can't do anything about it. You'd think I'd abandon my friends over some matter of pride?"
"No, I don't… You're the type to foolishly give your life for your thirtieth wife."
Tanya smirked.
"Tell me how more foolish I am…"
Davis also smiled, leaning in to give her a kiss. Tanya reciprocated, her tongue extending needily as she connected with his tongue and latched onto his lips. They kissed passionately, their hands exploring each other's bodies with a sense of urgency and desire. In that moment, all doubts and fears melted away as they lost themselves in each other's embrace.
"Mhnn~ Dear… I have ga~ guard duty to take care of~"
Tanya moved her face away after a minute, but Davis attacked her neck, bringing her body closer.
"Tanya, let's not worry about that now,"
Davis whispered, his hands pulling her even closer. Tanya's breath hitched as she gave in to the moment, letting go of her responsibilities for just a little while longer.
"No." Tanya muttered, her eyes quivering with pleasure.
"…"
Davis moved back, looking at Tanya's hot figure. He saw that he had overdone it with his hand inside her clothes and groping her bosoms, while his other hand was already tickling her lower body. He had to admit Tanya's sense of responsibility was too high, as she always volunteered to defend the family.
However, he wanted her to relax.
"Let's make love, Tanya. You don't need to care about what others think, nor do you need to think you're avoiding your responsibility. I'll ask Isabella to keep an eye out. I want you now."
Tanya's eyes widened in surprise, as she had never seen him so demanding, her cheeks flushing with a mix of desire and hesitation.
"I...I don't know, my love," she stammered, torn between her duty and her own desires.
She couldn't bear to look into the eyes of others if the ship were to be assailed by some kind of threat, and she wasn't there to quickly deal with it.
Davis gently took her hand, reassuring her with a soft smile.
"I'll ask Evelynn too."
"But they…"
Tanya's face reddened more. How could she have her big sisters guard the ship while she was inside, receiving pleasure? It was a serious breach of hierarchy, leading to discontentment.
"You think they're that easily shaken?"
"No… but…"
Davis closed her mouth with a kiss before he took out a messaging talisman.
"Evelynn, can you guard the flying ship for me along with Isabella? I'm having Tanya for a while."
The messaging talisman lost its glow before it flashed once again.
"That's great!~ I'm glad you're back to your old self quickly, you rogue~"
Evelynn sounded overjoyed.
The worst thing she feared right now was him wallowing him in despair, but if he was going after women, then that means that he already came to a conclusion as he wasn't the type to throw himself at his wives without being sound in mind.
She even heard how he was worried about them during the Candidacy and couldn't bring himself to be intimate with the other wives until he saw they were all safe and the others pushed him into the bedroom.
To her, it didn't matter if he decided to abandon them or had come across a unique plan to save them. All she wanted was for him to be happy with the family he created. Otherwise, what's the point of her allowing so many women in his life when she could make things hard for him with how obsessed he was with her?
She assured him she would return to the flying ship and continue the guard duty with Isabella.
"Hahaha! Great~"
Davis looked joyous before he threw the messaging talisman inside.
It was true that they would be upset if he took Tanya in these tumultuous times, but fortunately, he made love with them before they left, so chances were that they were now full of benevolence to reward their little sisters.
Thinking that, Davis's gaze fell on his sumptuous Tanya.
"Say, did I forget to say how dazzling you looked when you took down Autarch Metenoa?"
"…"
Tanya blushed, feeling increasingly aroused.
