Myria flew towards them, her white robes smoothly fluttering as she hovered her way to them above the blood lake, making her appear like a fairy descending to the underworld.
Regardless, once he heard her words, Davis's expression fell.
'This is troublesome. Hearing the Silvery Ruinous Everleaf's description, I wanted to bring this back as a souvenir for Evelynn. What should I do?'
He couldn't help but wonder as he knew this Silvery Ruinous Everleaf would benefit Evelynn's poison cultivation.
How could he tell?
It was because he had seen the ruinous attribute from poison back when the Poison Lord Villa passed through the Alstreim Family. This leaf emitted the aura of the same property, causing the rocks around it and even the bones of the dead beast to be utterly ruined into small particles similar to ashes.
The skull of the beast the Silvery Ruinous Everleaf was on was practically floating from the ground, and even the blood lake that had formed from his slaughter couldn't approach it.
Back then, the Poison Mistress, Hysteria Tempest, was the possessor of Ruinous Poison Calamity Body. She claimed to be a virgin and wanted him as her man, but despite her claims, his women didn't like her, and neither did he as she attacked them during a precarious situation, leaving him no choice but to end her life.
Regardless, he knew she was a powerful cultivator who had yet to excavate her true potential with that kind of physique.
He hadn't learned much about alchemy or ingredients in the Immortal Emperor Grade, but as an alchemist, he knew that the Silvery Ruinous Everleaf was something that would allow Hysteria Tempest's Ruinous Poison Calamity Body to improve leaps and bounds.
In the same way, he knew that it would also improve Evelynn's prowess as long as she could comprehend the ruinous attribute and, as a result, increase the quality of comprehension in Poison Laws.
If she could fuse it with Hex Laws, he could only imagine the utter devastation she could cause to her opponents.
However, with Myria asking him, which she rarely does, he felt like he was put in a spot.
"What's your answer? If you don't give me, I'll fight you for it."
"…?"
Hearing Myria's words, the others couldn't help but be dumbfounded. What's going on? These two weren't a couple?
On the other hand, Davis wryly smiled, "I don't want to fight you. Why don't you tie me up and take it away from me like you did before?"
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm "…"
Myria's pupils looked away, knowing he was pointing at her face with what she had done to him.
"If you're not willing to give, then fine. My cultivation would be delayed by tens and thousands of years."
"…"
Davis blinked. With her words, he knew these resources definitely concerned her goal to create her Eternal Body Physique. However, his Myria wasn't acting sulkily but forgot about the matter as she waved her hand and tried to return.
"Don't be so hasty." Davis spread his hands as he appeared before her with a flash, "Let me consider it for a moment as my Evelynn could also need it."
"I see." Myria's gaze flickered as she stared at him, "Then I don't want it even more."
"That's also not for you to decide."
"…" Myria's eyes widened, "You dare command me?"
"Who I wish to give a treasure is no one's concern unless you're willing to become my woman."
"Heh~"
Myria snorted lightly and turned to look away, appearing unamused, while Davis grinned. The feeling of grinding her defensive walls layer by layer was extremely fulfilling. At least, that was what he thought he was doing.
Nonetheless, he truly started considering giving this resource to Myria. After all, it seemed to be even more useful to her than Evelynn's cultivation, and even his women were extremely indebted to Myria for teaching them many things directly or indirectly through Ellia.
With that being the case, he felt it was fair to give her this treasure.
Perhaps, if it weren't for the memory seal she implanted in him and made him irritated, he might've truly gifted her on the spot. After all, he was courting her, but even without that, he would've given it for all the aid she had given him, even saving him from the clutches of the Blazing Thunderlight Sect's Founder with her own life as collateral as she could risk reviving an Anarchic Divergent and experiencing the flak in the form of karmic burden.
He would be willing to give his life for her.
But in the end, he had initially decided to give this resource to his first love, leaving him practically indecisive about this matter. But after much consideration, he couldn't help but think.
'Evelynn's being secretive about her improvement in her Laws, and due to the fact that I handed over the research to seal the heaven's influence on Clara while she was also looking after her sisters and even the baby in her tummy, she didn't have the time to tell me anything. But I suspect her Law comprehension has something to do with Wisteria.'
He wondered if she would take the path of ruinous poison he presented or the path that she discovered through Wisteria. Perhaps she might've already started walking through that path, making it useless for him to present the Silvery Ruinous Everleaf to her.
Thinking like this, Davis couldn't help but nod at Myria with a smile.
"Alright, it's yours."
Myria stared at him, wondering what went on in his head before he made this decision. Nonetheless, having received his permission, she turned around and began harvesting the Silvery Ruinous Everleaf with her skillful methods.
Tina and Dalila closely looked at her, wanting to learn. There was also sighs of contentment breathed out lightly.
Davis and Myria didn't know amidst their contention, but the others held their breath.
After all, a battle between these two would mean the group breaking apart. As for Bylai and Sophie, they were afraid that it would form a crack in Davis and Myria's relationship as they knew their man was pursuing Myria.
They had long since held respect for her, after all.
After harvesting the Silvery Ruinous Everleaf, Myria stored it in a suitable jade container and stood up, turning to look at Davis, sending a soul transmission.
"I have only theorized the pill concoction I need to create my body physique, and this resource is one of the most important sub-ingredients that offsets life and begets deaths, helping to form a perpetual cycle of life and death. You have my thanks for finding it effortlessly with just a stroll."
"…"
Davis didn't know what to say.
In truth, the treasure lists didn't have all the information about the treasures.
Some treasures only had their names, some only their appearances, some only their characteristics, some their growing environment, and some their effects. Perhaps this kind of division may have been placed to have a challenging yet fair competition among the Minor, Lower, and Upper Realms.
Nonetheless, this treasure… he simply decided on grabbing it because he was on the way to the southwestern direction to save his brothers' sons and daughters from dying in this foreign land. After all, he had assured them that he would protect them as much as he could.
