Chapter 2833 Friction
"..."
Davis had his head raised as he looked at her, feeling that it was a good view. Her sumptuous peaks almost hid her neck from his view.
Nevertheless, the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder simply raised her hand and extended a finger.
"One, you come to realize that I'm the peak of what you can attract. Two, even if you don't regret it, I'll make you regret it as I have shown no interest in any man in my lifetime. You're the first, so you should in all right belong to me."
"..."
Davis felt a strong sense of intent from her as though she was an adamant child, but it was also incredibly selfish, like an adult's avarice, causing him to become speechless.
The others were also stunned, wondering how Mo Tian managed to capture her heart this much that it almost felt like she was obsessed with him. However, considering that he could potentially become a Saint, they could understand, but which powerful woman with status, influence, and in her right mind would choose a young man who hadn't even come to the top of the world yet?
They felt this was ridiculous yet also to be possible.
"However, I'm not that heartless." The Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder abruptly smiled as her hand enticingly flew past him before pointing at something else, "I won't do anything against you, but I'll target someone you like, such as her..."
"...!"
Shea Goldsun flinched as the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder pointed at her.
She couldn't help but freeze as the people around her suddenly moved away from her, leaving her in the spotlight of the entire crowd.
On the other hand, Davis possessed a serious frown.
On one moment, this woman sent him trouble through potential suitors, whether it may be intentional or not, and on the other, she was targeting the women he chose to hang out with?
Davis felt like he was nearing his limit, causing him to stand up, but the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder abruptly burst into laughing.
"Hehehe~ Did it chill your heart to hear these words from my mouth?"
She shook he head, "As I expected, you're outwardly nice but inwardly narcissistic. I don't even love you, much less would go as far as to taint my reputation by harming some other woman like a jealous woman. Don't you think you're too presumptuous to even have that kind of thought?"
"..."
The Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder shrugged as she shook her head.
"Ai~ I just displayed a sliver of interest, and a junior thinks he has ascended to the top of the world. Some men and their egos are beyond my comprehension but at least... you're better than Gawain when it comes to knowing how to treat a woman as far as I've seen."
She shot him a knowing smile and turned around to leave, her long black hair almost brushing against his face as she took a step forward and floated away.
"It's not ego."
But suddenly, she stopped as she heard Mo Tian's voice echo, causing her to turn her head and look.
"It's a matter of femininity." Davis shook his head as he sighed, "You... don't even show a sliver of love or even care like what Shea Goldsun can do. Basically, she is more capable of being a wife than you are in my eyes, so if there ever came a time when some supreme being placed you two in front of me and allowed me to choose, I would undoubtedly take her over you. The quality of being a wife is what you are greatly lacking as far as I've seen."
"..."
For an instant, there was resounding silence across the palace, causing everyone to look at Mo Tian as though they had seen a ghost.
Shea Goldsun was stunned, not knowing how to feel, and even the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder had her brows raised, staring at Mo Tian with an unknown gaze.
But soon enough, her voice echoed out.
"You're correct. This heart of mine is stone cold as a dark crystal that any man who chooses to live with me will become miserable. Isn't that right?"
The Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder coldly smiled at him, scoffing before she turned around and left, her expression appearing to not look good, as though she was in a bad mood. However, she didn't do anything as she returned to her position, merely closing her eyes as though this event didn't concern her anymore.
Mo Tian scratched his head before he shrugged. He waved his hand towards Shea Goldsun as though saying goodbye and left the area, returning to the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan's area.
"..."
However, the people still looked at him like they were looking at a ghost.
After all, to be so rude to a character who was once a proud Immortal Emperor and was only a thin line away from it currently, they didn't know how he was still alive.
Inwardly, Davis was fuming because the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder had ruined his plans to get the Golden Crow Clan to invite him to the Fire Phoenix Clan and Earth Dragon Clan's banquet, making him feel like he had no choice but to use the favor or ask the Starlight Jade Wolf King to request the Golden Crow Clan.
Nonetheless, as soon as he made it to the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan's area, he noticed the Starlight Jade Wolf King looking at him with furrowed brows as though in doubt.
However, Davis appeared as though he didn't notice and sat beside Drake.
But the Starlight Jade Wolf King still couldn't help but stare at Mo Tian. Indeed, it didn't make sense to him when Mo Tian rejected even the most desired woman present here.
He didn't seem to take Panqa and Lanqua seriously. He basically didn't even meet Yilla Zyrus for five minutes, from what he heard from the twins. He seemed to somewhat care about Shea Goldsun but still didn't take her hand, and most important of all, he practically slapped the most powerful woman present here by rejecting the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder.
He couldn't figure out which man in his right mind would directly reject a beauty with power and status. At least, the least sensible thing to do was gloss over it and act like they may or may not interact the next time even if he was not interested, but to reject her and say she wasn't a wife, wasn't that basically thrashing instead of slapping?
Besides, if accepted, the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder could be a better backer than him!
After witnessing her power, even he was reeling in discomfort about how he could possibly match her in prowess or even status.
With all this calculated, he imagined that there was no reason for Mo Tian to outright reject the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder in his mind, but he did just that, causing him to feel that there was something up with him!
"Wolf King, I don't feel good. Can I leave this palace for now?"
"Well, since this event is almost over, let's go. Apparently, there are fun places to visit in the Grand Zyrus City."
Davis thought about it before nodding, causing the Starlight Jade Wolf King to pat his shoulder as though telling him to cheer up. Then, the Starlight Jade Wolf Clan started to leave, followed by a few more powers.
"Curse you!"
But at this moment, a screeching voice of a familiar woman resounded in the palace, causing Davis to turn around before he could leave the palace.
"Curse you all! She's my spirit! How dare you take her away from me!? Ahh!"
"Take her. Take her away."
The Zyrus Family Patriarch, Yinakin Zyrus, waved his hands at the elders, causing the elders to bind Yilla Zyrus as they tried to take her away through another exit, and what Davis saw further was the exchange occurring between the Zyrus Family and the Dynastic Evernight Phantasm Spirit.
His eyes shook as he also saw a few female Dynastic Evernight Phantasm Spirits sent to the Zyrus Family in exchange, but Nightveil wasn't a part of them, causing him to feel more like shit on top of his mood that was bad already.
His gaze panned and witnessed the struggling Yilla Zyrus being forcefully taken away, causing him to turn around and heave a heavy sigh.
'What did I expect...? The world was always... cruel...'
