These two who were holding each other whole feeling intense emotions were none other than the pair of secret lovers who completed their pre-nuptial ceremony in a tomb that Davis proceeded to investigate to complete a mission of the Cloud Spring Mercenaries.At that time, he had just entered the Farz Mountains and headed to the West End Valley to investigate Quade Hansen's Tomb for any anomaly but instead saw a pair of lovers confirm their feeling for each other through physical intimacy.When Davis left Quade Hansen's Tomb, he was captured by Elder Severin but was later saved by Mulia, then brought to a mysterious tomb.After the event with Old Man Garvin and Elder Severin's Death, these two were forced to separate because the matter about their rendezvous had come into light when investigated by the Tripartite Alliance Headquarters, however, Davis didn't know about that.Hadian's heart stiffened as he developed a sense of loss.Today was the day where they promised to escape with each other to the horizon of unknown scenery but who could've thought Mulia would've met with this unknown calamity.Hadian's eyes flashed even though he was downcast. His stance which was always prideful lowered as he knelt, "Seniors! I beg you to let this woman go!"The Sixth Stage Cultivators who were still conscious had their eyes tremble from fright and disbelief. Was Hadian going to not inform the headquarters to take revenge for them?Hadian didn't refer Mulia as his woman because he didn't want the other party to develop strange and advantageous thoughts.At this time, Davis had just finished storing Elder Valoi's soul into a strange vial that he held in his hands. It was previously the vial that Old Man Garvin had used to store the soul body of Elder Severin at that time."Oh? And why should I?" Davis asked in a curious yet arrogant tone, one befitting of the persona he had previously adopted, tyrannical and arrogant to the extreme. He simultaneously kept the vial into his spatial ring.

Living things couldn't be kept inside a spatial ring but after being suppressed and sealed, they could be kept inside.Hadian inwardly lost almost all hope. If the other party refused to let her go... He didn't even want to think about it. Even the three Seventh Stage Cultivators were decimated in a few seconds! Even someone without a brain can see that they would die if they didn't do something like begging.However, from the looks of it, it seemed like the other party was somewhat reasonable, willing to engage in negotiations."In exchange, I am willing to give my life to you! Whether it be a slave or to end my life! I'm willing!" Hadian shouted with a determined expression on his face.Instantly, he felt the soft body in his arms tremble. He looked at her face and saw the tears threatening to fall out of her eyes."Very well," Davis spoke, making Hadian's eyes lit up both in sadness and relief but the next words he heard made his face turn ugly."However, I don't understand what is the use of making you my soul slave when I can make her my soul slave."Hadian gritted his teeth as rage clouded his mind but when he heard the next words, his heart calmed down. He couldn't reveal that he had deep ties with this woman, otherwise... The other party might possibly ask for more..."I don't care whoever decides to give their life to me in exchange for their offense, but the woman in your arms looks like she wants to speak something..." Davis snapped his fingers and the suppression he employed on Mulia slightly decreased, allowing her to speak and move a little bit.Mulia's body trembled as her lips moved, "H-Hadian, don't you dare..."Hadian looked at her with a wry smile on his face while tears fell out of her eyes, "We should have escaped a day sooner..."

"Please don't..." Mulia pleaded in a guilty tone.If only she hadn't planned to elope today but a day sooner, none of this would've happened. Hadian had already laid out the plan to elope way earlier, but every time the date arrived, she would chicken out while thinking about her parents and uncle Erik for the trouble she would cause them.What was the result? Hadian's life?She instantly felt immense guilt. Hadian shook his head and Mulia was about to respond."Enough!" Davis shouted as if his patience fell.Mulia felt suppressed again. Her expression contorted. She could no longer speak nor move, however, tears started to cascade down her cheeks like a waterfall."You have to live..." Hadian's facial expression was calm. He had already made his decision.He had already made his decision to make her his woman at that time, and he never fell out of it, even at the cost of betraying Towering Cloud Hall Faction. This time was the same."Senior, in exchange for my life, I ask you to let her go without harming her in any way.""Very well! This exchange, I accept!" Davis nodded his head and waved his hands.

A golden glow along with yellow patterns condensed. The Sacred Mark Art instantly flew towards Hadian's body.Seeing this, many of the Sixth Stage Cultivators were tempted to become a slave just so they could live but their pride and belonging didn't allow them to do so they quickly curbed their thoughts.However, the other party did really seem like a person of background. They couldn't help but secretly reconsider.Once the Sacred Mark Art entered Hadian's body, he shook. He closed his eyes and inhaled a deep amount of breath before exhaling his misery.Davis suddenly let out a sinister laugh as another wave of soul suppression descended on everybody, threatening to crush them to meat paste. "You fool! I will let her go now but who could say that in the future that I will not have my way with her! Hahaha!"The Sixth Stage Experts all lost their consciousness once they heard his words.Hadian's eyes widened but his reasoning told him that it was too late. He felt the speck of light in his soul sea disappear while the Sixth Stage Cultivators fainted in front of his eyes as they all fell to the ground. His eyes lost hope and he slowly turned to look at Mulia's shocked face, his heart clenching in despair.However, when he saw Mulia stand up as if she wasn't affected by the Soul Suppression, his eyes which were dull regained light, "... Mulia, escape from this place, never come to this territory again. Go back to the Falling Snow Sect Territory, and never step out of your parent's home..."A wry smile emerged on his face.So what if he sacrificed himself? In the end, he still came out as a loser, a mere slave to an unknown being to whom he had not even offended.'Such is life...' A vague understanding flashed past his mind.He turned his head to his front and saw his new master approaching in his direction slowly and leisurely as if what had happened to them wasn't a big matter in the first place.As the blurry figure came in front of him, his heart shook.*Pahh!~*
