214: Near Death

Near Death

Davis's limbs turned stiff, his mind hurriedly thought of using his Dark Concealing Shroud Art but it was obvious that it would be useless since he was already discovered.1

As for the why felt the chills in his spine? It was because that he detected heavy killing intent heading in his way!

Think! Think! Think!

Runaway? No! Attack? That would be suicide!

"What's this? A kid?" A voice echoed out behind him giving Davis a jump scare!

But instantly, he felt his nape getting captured by a hand! The force he felt on his neck was like an eagle's grasp by its talon.

'Such speed!' He inwardly exclaimed and just when he as about to counterattack, his pupils suddenly contracted in horror because he felt that he couldn't even move right now!

... And a distance of 400 meters covered in a single second? 

"Weird... Just now I felt a Soul Sense probe from this place..." The man muttered to himself as glanced back at Davis.

"Who are you?" The man behind him asked a question yet when Davis tried to answer, he couldn't even open his mouth.

'You damned shit! I can't even speak if you're holding me like that!' Davis used his eyes to convey his thoughts but didn't dare to use his Soul Sense to convey or his cultivation base would be revealed.

"You're not going to open your mouth? I see, you can just die now..."

Davis's heart missed a beat! What? Was he going to die just like that? He instantly thought of using Fallen Heaven but doubted that he would be able to kill this adversity with this much of a gap in their cultivations.

Footsteps quickly fell into his ears and a group of cultivators showed up in his view.

A man glanced at Davis, stepped up and opened his mouth, "Elder Severin, this kid is from the Cloud Spring Mercenaries!"

"Are you taking me for a fool? Anyone can see that when you look at his clothes!" Elder Severin seemed to be easily provoked as if a matter was heavily weighing on his mind.

He looked middle-aged with a mustache, his eyes and nose sharp. The clothes he wore were a dragon patterned green robes, adorned with jade-like spirit stones.

"This subordinate deserves to die!" The man who stepped out replied with trepidation in his heart but he knew exactly why his master was enraged right now.

"Actually, you don't but you do deserve a punishment... Kill this kid right now and your punishment shall be considered over..." Elder Severin shoved Davis down the ground.

To his horror, Davis realized his cultivation was sealed, with him only being able to use his Body Tempering Cultivation and Soul Forging Cultivation!

The man glanced at Davis and frowned. He certainly didn't want to stain his hands with a blood of a kid but he couldn't possibly go against his master's orders either.

"Blame your luck for being in this filthy place, poor lad..." The man sent Davis a Soul Transmission as he prepared to kill him.

Davis narrowed his eyes and prepared to counter-attack, his eyes darting left and right to search for an escape route even though he knew that it would be impossible to escape from this place.

Just when the man was about to slash out with the sword he had taken out, another man stepped out and pointed at a direction, "Elder Severin! It's Young Miss Mulia!"

Elder Severin's eyes turned wide before he glanced back, spotting the figure who was weighing in his mind.

"Ah... Mulia! Where did you go? I was afraid that you met danger in this heaven forsaken place!"

As the figure got closer, Davis who stood up had bells ring up in his ears, 'Mulia? Wasn't she?'

The man who was about to kill Davis kept his sword inside and ran to the incoming figure, "Young Mi... No, Elder Severin's Wife, Lady Mulia. We are all glad that our lady is safe and sound."

Elder Severin nodded his head secretly, but he obviously wouldn't show it outside!

Mulia straight away ignored the man and headed towards Elder Severin while a man low-key landed beside her from the latter's entourage.

Elder Severin turned and glared towards his subordinate, "Shut up! We still haven't married yet you all dare to call her my wife?"

His gaze then turned soft when he looked at her, "Youn... Mulia, I was worried about your well being this whole time..."

His hands slowly moved to her shoulders when suddenly she looked at him coldly, "Worried about my well being? Weren't you occupied with killing this young boy just now?"

Elder Severin's eyes twitched as he realized he had been caught.

Meanwhile, a chuckle echoed out causing one to look at the source.

Helplessness, hatred and even fear welled up in Davis's mind, yet when Mulia came into the picture, along with the words from the lackey, his negative thoughts were swept away, leaving only a chuckle behind.

The chuckle slowly turned into a burst of laughter when he looked at Elder Severin!

Only one thought; a sentence kept running in his mind making him laugh his ass off like an idiot!

'A bonafide cuckold!'

This guy right in front of him was made a cuckold and he just witnessed that scene half a day ago! Such revelation left Davis with a feeling of self-satisfaction even when death was near him!

"Hahaha!" With just this information, Davis felt like he could ruin Elder Severin's entire reputation and drag him into the gutter.

"What? Did he go crazy from having his cultivation sealed?"

"Nah, he probably just pissed his pants and is trying to hide it by acting crazy..."

Murmurs and discussions echoed around, causing his eyes to twitch.

Just when he was about to reveal this explosive information, Mulia suddenly stood in front of him and coldly glared at Elder Severin, "What are you doing?"

A man also stood beside her, his gaze staying at Elder Severins's actions,

The man who low-key stood beside her gave off a faint pressure which curbed Elder Severin from doing anything reckless.
