While Davis got back to check the Nefarious Darkwill Rakshasa's core, Mingzhi, and a few others set out to the Ghostly Crow Lower Realm.
Stella first left them in the Fourth Void Dust Sanctuary in the Goldlust Rat Minor Realm. From there, they headed towards the Ghostly Crow Lower Realm.
Mingzhi had thrown Young Master Ragoon here somewhere two days ago. She wondered if he made it there without getting into trouble.
"It's coming…"
*Bzzz!~*
A black-robed man spread his hands and felt the phenomenal power of the realm pour toward him once he crossed the edge.
It was none other than Yughen, the Ghostly Crow Realm Master.
His cultivation base at the Level Three Autarch Stage rumbled and his base prowess increased by three levels higher. He had surpassed a Level Nine Autarch with this kind of power, and with powerful techniques using his essences, he could near the layer limit.
After feeling empty for so long, now he felt more powerful than ever.
Unfortunately, he remembered he would have to drop from his position as the Realm Master but not to his clan.
Beside him, his first wife Filly was also present, her cultivation base having improved to the Level Two Autarch Stage. Surprisingly, she had made acquaintance with Tina in the Whispering Wildlands Peninsula, and the other party was benevolent enough to give her a powerful breakthrough pill.
She was honestly astonished but didn't decline.
Since they were going to be under the Divine Emperor of Death for the time being, she figured she might as well accept their benevolence.
"They should have people near the Realm Core and will become aware of my presence by recognizing its momentary pulsating aura."
Realm Master Yughen warned.
"Not a problem." Mingzhi sighed, "Stella, you maintain some distance from us and watch us from the void. Should we need help, then show yourself. As for when to interfere, I'll leave that to you to decide."
"Understood." Stella calmly replied, feigning coolness.
Mingzhi smilingly turned away and led the party.
Among them were Sophie and… Yilla.
Yilla's expression was a bit happy yet also forlorn. She couldn't believe she was chosen to bind the Realm Core in case they managed to take over the realm. This means that she would not be able to meet with Davis unless she returned, sharing the same fate with Zestria, who was held up in the Verdant Vale Lower Realm.
She was honored and felt seen that she was chosen, but at the same time-
"This isn't an elaborate plan to separate me from darling, is it…?"
She giggled half-heartedly at Mingzhi, who came with the news two days ago, her heart feeling both elated and sinking for the first time, nearly giving her a heart attack.
"Is there such an expensive and opportunity of a lifetime scheme intended to separate a wife from her husband?"
Mingzhi giggled, "Perhaps there could've been in the history, but definitely not this one. You could reject but I recommended you fiercely. Otherwise, we're going to have to give this Realm Core away to Davis's father who wants to become powerful and also support the family."
"Did father-in-law ask?" Yilla's expression churned.
If so, she wasn't in a position to step forward then.
"Nope, but the Ghostly Crow Realm Core is a darkness-attributed Realm Core for the most part, and Davis feels that he hasn't done anything for his parents for a while. He considered this as a suggestion since his father's Malevolent Darkness Physique needs some nurturing to do. Perhaps he will settle there years later, but for now, Davis wants you to bind the Realm Core. Of course, you can decline but I really hope that you can accept. Darkshade's Law Comprehension should also peak through your connection to the Realm Core."
"…"
Yilla's heart couldn't help but beat loudly. She was indeed tempted by this opportunity, but she had become pretty satisfied living with Davis, free of schemes and free of having to watch out for her back. She had never experienced this kind of livelihood in her life since she was from the Zyrus Family which is a wicked path power.
That was why she all the more valued this new life. Then again, this opportunity was huge, so she couldn't say no either. If she did, she didn't know how she would regret it for the rest of her life. As smart as she was, she didn't feel like it was a good choice to decline.
However, she loved Davis deeply and didn't like to go anywhere. This became a dilemma.
"Well, you can spend the next two days packing up with your avatar and spending time with Davis with your main body. He's quite free this month, so make sure to take advantage of the opportunity."
"I did~" Yilla's lips curled wryly, "I was intimate with him a week ago, although it was only for half a day."
Then he was gobbled up by Panqa and Lanqua, those two seductive wolf fey twins. Little did Yilla know that Fiora and Mingzhi stole him after that. They all craved him, occasionally peeking their heads to see if he was in his master chamber.
"That's great~" Mingzhi nodded, "However, you should still go see him and spend time with him. It may not be until eight years and eleven months that you would get to be intimate with him again."
"…!"
Yilla shook, beginning to shake her head.
"Just kidding," Mingzhi giggled again, thoroughly enjoying Yilla's emotions, "You will see him in a few years. After all, we plan to take turns gaining comprehension from the Realm Core to steady our foundations in Law Comprehension to the extreme."
"…" Yilla absentmindedly nodded.
The skies turned visible again in her eyes.
She could only remember the next few days where she voraciously had dual cultivation with Davis, feeling she had devoured a part of him and he was still with her. She had cried in his arms when leaving, not wanting to leave him, but he convinced her, telling her that if she so wanted, he would break the Covenant to come see her, making her foolishly smile.
She knew she was smitten with him but once again found out how low she had fallen in love.
Still, she felt saddened after she finally left home.
"Don't worry. I will also try to visit you as many times as possible." Mingzhi's voice echoed, "Although I can't bind, I also need to increase my comprehension a lot. I'll just sit by the Realm Core and chat with you~"
Yilla turned to look at her and adopted a wicked smile, "Thanks, elder sister~"
"Not a problem. Just don't count on it since I have Tianyu to take care of."
"Is that a jab?" Yilla touched her belly, wondering if she would get pregnant, but she didn't so far.
The two of them laughed. They then turned to look at the Ghostly Crow Lower Realm's main city, where the Realm Core was hidden underneath. They had finally arrived.
*Whoosh!~* *Whoosh!~* *Whoosh!~*
Instantly, powerful undulations filled the space as many Autarchs appeared.
