"Yu…"
Fillia reached out her hand, her voice still weak, but her cheeks already had a healthy red hue, causing the Ghostly Crow Realm Master to take her hand softly and place it on his cheek.
"I'm here… don't fret, Fillia. You survived…"
"…"
Fillia shed tears.
Only she knew how hopeless the death poison made her feel. It wasn't like she didn't take medicine herself. It was useless. That was why she committed to poisoning that hateful Grand Elder and his family. Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken a drastic action.
When she turned to thank the person who saved her, her expression froze.
Under the sunny sky, the Divine Emperor of Death appeared like a divine entity. She could still feel the remnant life energy surrounding her body, making her feel at peace. She found it hard to believe the owner of such an entity could be an evil person.
"W-What do you want…?" She asked, becoming fearful of his demands.
Surely, this treatment wouldn't be free, right?
"…" Davis didn't reply.
Instead, the Ghostly Crow Realm Master explained in a low voice.
On the other hand, Davis was wondering about how the Ghostly Crow Realm Master arrived at this decision.
His original intention was to make the Ghostly Crow Realm Master rely on him through fear. After he poisoned his Grand Elder, they would surely start suspecting his sanity and vehemently try to remove him from the Realm Master position and evict him.
Therefore, he knew the Ghostly Crow Realm Master would rely on him sooner or later.
However, something else happened, and the Ghostly Crow Realm Master came here to rely on him, not through fear but hope.
Davis felt it was a strange thing.
For the Ghostly Crow Realm Master to come here after all that beating, Davis knew his loyalty and love towards his first wife eclipsed his fear, and what came after that, after he agreed to treat Fillia for free, was hope that they could survive this ordeal.
It was a better outcome than the one he concocted.
'It should be way easier to control the Ghostly Crow Realm Master this way…'
Davis nodded to himself before he gazed at them.
"Alright, I agree to your conditions. In the meantime, you and your family can go take refuge in the Whispering Wildlands Peninsula and recuperate. I'll relay the information. Someone will be waiting for you before you enter the cumulonimbus clouds."
"Thank you…"
The Ghostly Crow Realm Master lowered his head.
He didn't feel embarrassed because he had already thanked him many times for getting beaten up. He had long crossed past that shame, and the darkness in his soul made him colder.
The Ghostly Crow Realm Master wasn't worried about the Realm Core.
If someone actually tried to force-bind the Realm Core while it was still bound, then it would hit them with a huge shockwave enough to kill them. It was a reaction, a backlash if one were to fail. There were cases when one successfully managed to steal the binding of a Realm Core, but those were extremely rare cases. He didn't think the people from his clan would be able to steal it from him.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be desperate for him to step down.
The Heavenly Ghost Crow Clan also didn't bring any supreme geniuses at the Sovereign Stage since they were already in the secret realm. Still, he didn't think these so-called supreme geniuses would even want the Realm Core as their ambitions were high. Even if they wanted it, they wouldn't stay for long.
He looked at the Divine Emperor of Death, wanting to ask if he had done something to his wife secretly, but then again, if he had done that, he wasn't safe either.
"Have you done something to us?" he mustered his courage, asking in a somber tone.
"Nope."
Davis was casual, "I did coat the arrow tip with a paltry amount of death poison that wouldn't have harmed her if she had just opened her mouth and sought a powerful healer sooner, but she didn't. Other than that, I don't remember placing any devious karmic technique on her. Could it be… that you want me to place-"
"No, thank you."
The Ghostly Crow Realm Master quickly said, his expression stumped.
"…" Fillia also didn't look good.
Had she totally misunderstood the intention behind the death poison? Could she actually live?
"If you hadn't kept your word, this might've gone in a much more unpleasant manner. You can be proud of yourself since your actions saved your family from the mistake this stupid crow did."
"…"
The Ghostly Crow Realm Master clenched his fists but lowered them instantly while Fillia had a complicated expression on her face. She cupped her hands.
"Thank you for sparing us then. If there is something that you have placed on us, then please space us once again."
"Well," Davis turned around to leave, "I truly didn't."
However, he stopped and turned to look at the Ghostly Crow Realm Master.
"Besides, it doesn't matter if I place something on you or not. If I really wanted you dead, you're dead. There's no changing it, so be glad that you regretted your actions and apologized for it plenty."
He turned around and rose to the skies before he disappeared, leaving behind the two of them, who felt their hearts sink. They felt like they were ensnared in the web of his palms already, no escape.
Davis flew back to his home.
There, he quickly visited Evelynn, unable to stop himself. He had been eying her from the time she returned but he had to wait for so long because of this stupid crow.
========
The flickering flames of candles dimly lighted the room, their golden light dancing across the naked bodies entwined on the couch. The air was heavy with the scent of incense, and the soft sounds of panting and moaning filled the space as a husband and wife gave in to their desires.
Davis laid back against the cushions with his arms flexed above his head, gazing up at a beauty. His chiseled abs rippled beneath his skin, each muscle well-defined. The tip of his rock-hard dick was flushed red and throbbing with arousal as he watched his first wife above him. It was already coated in saliva belonging to her as she gave him a wild blowjob and swallowed his yang essence with a sensual gaze directed at him.
"Hnn~"
Evelynn slowly sank on him and swayed over his body, her hips moving up and down in rhythm. Her voluminous breasts bounced with each thrust, jiggling seductively, teasing the senses with their fullness. Her fingers traced along Davis's skin as she sat on him while his arms reached up to grasp her waist and pull her down on him.
Her bosoms brushed against his face and nipples against his lips, and he latched on eagerly, sucking one into his mouth while the other was freed from its covering for a moment.
He ran a hand over the other breast, his thumb flicking at the stiff peak, but it only seemed to make her moan louder as she lifted and rode him faster like a mature woman.
"Oh, Davis~"
With each push of her hips, he felt himself grow bigger inside her, stretching her in ways that made her cry out with pleasure.
Davis wanted nothing more than to fill her completely, to feel the warmth of her tightness surround him until it was almost painful before letting go. He had never met a woman so perfect. She always managed to press each of his buttons like she was playing him.
Her jade skin felt soft as silk. She used her legs to control herself, holding herself up high above him with ease as her fingers grasped the edge of his shoulders.
Evelynn's voluminous bosoms dangled and bounced in front of his eye, her tits attracting him and making him a crazed dog. He pulled on those soft buds until she yelped, letting go with a gasp for air. Her eyes met his, and there was an unmistakable hunger in them as she stared at him, her legs spread open wide.
"Ravage me~" she uttered in a seductive voice.
Her hands reached for the back of his head and pressed him closer to her bountiful breasts as if she wanted more, "Yes...!"
Davis's eyes nearly reddened. He swerved her to the side, placed her against the edge of the couch, and began pounding her silly.
*Paaah!~* *Paaah!~* *Paaah!~*
She was so warm and soft, making him go crazy.
Their hips rocked against each other as he held her in place. He felt himself getting close to the edge and knew she was also nearing as he could hear her sensual moans filling his soul. He threw his head towards her and took her lips, exchanging sloppy kisses.
"Da-avis~ Mnn~"
Evelynn's hips bucked against him as she cried out his name in the darkness of the room with a moan, but it got muffled by his big mouth. They felt themselves approaching climax rapidly.
Finally, thick amounts of yang essence and yin essence flooded their nether regions.
They both panted heavily, their bodies trembling under the power of pleasure that coursed through them until he finally pulled away from her and held onto her waist, letting go of her breasts before he thrust into her one last time, jutting out all the final vestiges of his release.
"Mhnn~"
Evelynn threw her head back as she came again. The couch creaked with each forceful blow to her hips. The clash of their flesh created erotic sounds.
"Come for me, my Hex Demoness."
Davis held her cheek and thrust in slowly yet powerfully, making her orgasm repeatedly. Her beautiful face was crimson, filled with a sensual look. He could think of nothing else other than breeding her right now, repeatedly gushing out an ungodly amount of yang essence.
They didn't know how many times they exchanged their words of love, with Davis constantly whispering sweet nothings into her ears and making her go red or wild.
Eventually, they stopped after… seven days.
Days later, Davis sent another force to conquer the Ghostly Crow Lower Realm.
==========
Two weeks back, a group of women invaded the popular, secret realm in the Eternal Twilight Lower Realm.
The border town at the other side of the entrance was quickly met with a disaster.
