Myria looked at their expression and realized that she had gone overboard with her revealing some matters. She pursed her lips and delightfully waved her hand."Alright, I feel like if I start recounting my past, you might all start worshiping me. So I'll leave this at that and move on to the important question.""Are even one of you going to betray me after hearing all this? I'm inquiring because I don't leave any betrayers alive."The four beauties of the Mystic Ice Sect frantically shook their heads as if they were little kids as they heard her nonchalant tone. Myria's capabilities were already known, so when she claimed that she was an individual who was something more powerful than an immortal, they couldn't help but want to believe in her words.Even if she was not, she still presented herself to be known as an immortal in their minds."Good!" Myria satisfactorily nodded."If you follow what the Four Great Righteous Sects says, perhaps you may find yourselves saving the world if at all their ridiculous plan works, but on the other hand, if you do not betray me, not only will you four have a chance at survival, but you will also be able to become immortals if you take me as your master, which is a lifelong dream for you all. However, I cannot say anything about taking care of the Mystic Ice Sect because that would mean that we all die.""Bing Hua, Wan Lanying and Xia Yun. What do you say?"The three Ancestors looked at each other as their faces possessed a strange expression. The person in front of them might be just below a hundred years old, but she claimed to have lived for fifty thousand years, which was more than enough for them to call her Ancestor!Nevertheless, contemplating their choices for a few valuable seconds, Ancestor Bing Hua quickly went down on her knees and kowtowed."Disciple Bing Hua is willing to take Myria as her master."Sect Master Bing Luli looked at her young-looking grandmother kowtowing to her friend as her mouth went agape."Disciple Wan Lanying is willing to take Myria as her master.""Disciple Xia Yun is willing to take Myria as her master."The other two followed suit, causing her pupils to tremble in disbelief."Then I accept you all, Bing Hua, Wan Lanying, and Xia Yun as my disciples. From now on, you three are under my care, and if there are any grievances you would like to shed, you can approach me at any time given that I'm not in a critical juncture when cultivating..."Myria's cold yet influencing voice echoed in her cultivation chamber, causing the three Ancestors to tremble."Yes!"They finished kowtowing three times and stood up, and for some reason, instead of feeling embarrassed, they felt themselves become full of confidence for their future. For all they knew, it might be an illusion, but they relished it at this moment, finding themselves to be more youthful again, going back to those disciple days. Their current appearance only made them feel that they were truly back, making them feel nostalgic.Looking at how the three Ancestors were felicitous, Sect Master Bing Luli's lips twitched.What did she witness just now?Three Ancestors simultaneously kowtowing to a junior?She shook her head, feeling that it was not the case and she was too arrogant to be calling herself friends with Myria if she truly was an existence above immortals. Follow current on novelenglish.net
What kind of qualifications did she possess to be called friends with her? None!She was about to bend her knees and kowtow along with her Ancestors when a sudden force kept her from doing so."Luli, friends don't need to kowtow to each other." "But...""No buts... You were the first to earn my trust a bit after all."Sect Master Bing Luli appeared hesitant before her expression turned complex when she heard Myria's reason."As for the competition..."Myria began explaining what they needed to do.After some time, when the confusion cleared and the Ancestors and Sect Master left, Myria was all alone in her room again, her back appearing small yet strong before she raised her head, heaving a gentle sigh."Ellia, what do you think?""I'll give you ninety-nine points for that..."Ellia's voice resounded out in their soul sea."I lacked one point?" Myria appeared to be amused, "Let me guess, due to my arrogant behavior?""No, no one is perfect, not even Davis. He himself told me that when he's perfect in my eyes.""Hehehe..."Myria couldn't help but giggle as she heard her crazy Ellia's ravings. She was sick of hearing that Davis that she no longer cared."Jokes apart, what do you truly think about this matter?""I think that we might have to cultivate faster. Time is running out, but even we don't know the limit, so it might be possible that we may have to abandon our lofty ambitions to create a Supreme Immortal Rune and a Supreme Immortal Crest."Myria sighed, looking crestfallen, "I thought so too...""However..." Her eyes suddenly lit up as her rosy lips moved."Xiaolan, come out!~"*Shhhh!~*Icy winds picked up around them as a pure white silhouette shot out of her forehead and transformed into a teenage girl! Her figure quickly became discernible as her icy-white robes came into view. She had beautiful blue-white hair and appeared dazzlingly beautiful yet sharp as she had those mesmerizing blue eyes."Mistress?" Follow current on novel-online.com
Her melodious voice resounded out, causing Myria to inevitably smile as she spread out her hands, "Come here..."Xiaolan's eyes lit up as she flew into her Mistress's embrace, looking as if she liked to snuggle between the twin peaks of her Mistress."Xiaolan is so cute..."It was as if Ellia overlapped with Myria as she adorable c.a.r.e.s.sed the snuggling Xiaolan."So you plan to make our little Ice Phoenix break into the Immortal Stage and have us ascend along with her... while we hide in her body, her mouth or stomach...?"Ellia sounded full of disbelief at the end while Myria giggled."Yes, it is what it seems like...""Is that even possible...?"Ellia's brows couldn't help but twitch inside their soul sea."I don't know, but we sure can try and make it happen. Forced ascension means pulling everything someone has with them, and that means we're naturally going to end up ascending with Xiaolan." Myria stopped c.a.r.e.s.sing Xiaolan as she entered a moment of contemplation, "In theory, this is possible, and there must be some records of some people here who have broken through and ascended, taking important people with them just by clasping hands with them, or just a touch for sure.""Alright, seems feasible enough..."Ellia replied before she voiced out, "What about Shirley? Are we leaving her?""Shirley? We'll pick her up if she's willing, though I muse that she has other plans in mind since she didn't call for our help. We still don't know who that strange protector of her is from... and maybe it's her new man, but what a pity, he ended up dying despite the rumor of such prowess."Ellia frowned."Myria, Shirley is not like that.""She may not be like that but forced circ.u.mstances always make people change, Ellia. If she was violated by that dead man called Chu Feng, I don't blame her for leaving your Davis. Besides, that Chu Feng is someone who comprehends Death Laws. He is probably a hundred times stronger and talented than your Davis, who's currently in the Alstreim Family trying to play it with that little scheme of his with that little empress, and women generally dislike weak men, so...""Enough...!"Myria pursed her lips and shrugged."Reality is hard to accept, Ellia. But I muse that you could probably tell from my memories about what I had to face to accept reality, no?"Ellia clenched her fists in anger."It's not like you never used schemes to get by, so shut up. I don't care about your thoughts or Shirley's decision to live a different life, but if you abandon Davis down here, I'm dragging you down whenever I have the chance."Myria narrowed her eyes, looking angered slightly."Ellia, it isn't good to be hostile towards me like this...""Then you know how serious I am. We both are the same, Myria. I am terrifying as you are, so you need to follow my wishes as well..." Follow current on storynovel.net
"Tch, mortal woman." Myria sounded full of disdain, "You may have my knowledge and memories, but don't you dare think you can top me in terms of experience. If we ever fight for supremacy, I will win without a doubt. I was good to you, not erasing you, accommodating to your wishes, and look at where that brought you, willing to threaten your other half for mere puppy love. I'm rather disappointed, Ellia.""It was not a mere puppy love! And don't you dare disrespect me, you white-haired witch who killed thousands of self-reincarnations like me!""..."Myria's expression froze. A sudden silence filled within themselves before a voice echoed out."I apologize. I went too far, Myria..."Ellia sounded remorseful, but still, no reply came.Nevertheless, after a short while, Myria spoke."It's fine. I was wrong to think that you might understand me just because you have my memories. Perhaps, we'll never understand each other, and it's fine that way because we're going to separate anyway once I find the right method. As you wish, I'll also save that Davis of yours. Then, once we separate, you can go live with your puppy love while I go my own way, seeking revenge against the bastards who betrayed me if they are still living after all these unknown years."A pang of hurt encroached on Ellia as she bit her lips in sadness because she knew that her statement also hurt Myria."I'm sorry, Myria. I truly am..."Myria stayed silent before her voice resounded out in their soul sea."Ellia, do you know how it feels when you kill yourself thousands, no, an indefinite number of times?"Ellia's heart shook again as she voiced out."I'm sorry...""Just answer..."Ellia shook her head in their soul sea."Good, I don't want you to experience that wretched feeling, and I certainly don't want to feel that again..."Myria's bosoms heaved as she calmed down, her moist eyes blinking before they became indifferent again, while Ellia felt inexplicably saddened.She knew how Myria protected her from being corrupted by so many unneeded memories, but all she provided her were complaints and more complaints like a spoiled brat. All this time, she thought that she had been the one who was possessed, but it was the other way around!She was nothing more than an unintentional consequence, a parasite created from Myria's unique physique when she rebirths!"I'm sorry, sister..."Myria's calm heart shook at this moment as she heard Ellia's sobbing voice. Her heart inexplicably melted as she, too, felt her eyes turning moist for a darn reason that she couldn't even understand. She later sighed, full of remorse."I practically have no layers of walls set up against you, Ellia... This is unfair as I've never had my feelings swung around by anyone in my life like this after that moment of betrayal.""I know, and I'm sorry for taking advantage of your kindness, Myria."Ellia said once more, causing Myria's lips to curve as her smile became resplendent and gentle."Apologies accepted~"
