Chapter 2144 l Want To JoinAs Davis destroyed the Blood Pledge Villa's Villa Master's soul essence to nihility using Fallen Heaven, he took his hand off the lean trembling shoulder of the black-robed woman."With this, your obsession with revenge has come to an end, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to practice the Blood Pledge Worldheart Manual anymore."This was the reason he stopped Schleya from going overboard in torturing the Blood Pledge Villa's Villa Master. Otherwise, he was concerned that she would end up crippling herself by being unable to practice the Blood Pledge Worldheart Manual. After all, cultivations requiring a unique state of mind weren't new to him when Natalya's Forsaken Yin Lotus Manual required her to be in a state of loneliness and resentment against the world for being abandoned.When he thought of it like this, the Blood Pledge Worldheart Manual was tame, but still, he was worried if Schleya derived too much pleasure from torturing and killing the Blood Pledge Villa's Villa Master, she would lose her pure heart.Schleya wiped off her tears with her sleeve before she turned to look at him, her moist crimson eyes possessing a vile yet graceful charm."That was just me running off my mouth as Mingzhi does...""…"She giggled ever so lightly in a low voice, causing Davis to blink.To be seeing Schleya joking around in this manner... was he worried for nothing?However, he could sense that a huge burden had fallen off her shoulders. Just before he could respond, she continued."Although I derived that someone needs a pure heart from the texts and my understanding of the Blood Pledge Worldheart Manual, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's inclined towards being good. By having a pure heart, I meant one that's clear of falsehood and capable of reflecting the heart of the other person like a reflection in the water, forming a resonance with them. That's why once I get hold of their blood, I'm able to physically harm them from a long distance as I did to that bastard.""Right…"Davis pursed his lips as he glanced at the abandoned corpse below, understanding what she told him as he felt that it aligned with the Laws of Heart Laws or Enigmatic Heart Laws, but unlike Schleya, Davis didn't know Blood Laws, so he was unable to apply this understanding although he felt things would've been different if he also learned the Blood Pledge Worldheart Manual but still, he was way too satisfied with what he achieved in Essence Gathering Cultivation, so he didn't bother about this matter at all.

"What are you going to do now? Take control of the Blood Pledge Villa?"He surveyed the Blood Pledge Villa's city as he asked, skimming the expressions of the wicked path cultivators who had their heads lowered, not daring to utter a word. He figured that they were scared of him eradicating them because he went around eradicating wicked path power remnants a few months ago and recently had the Reaper Soul Legion clean them off of his Territories."No…"But Schleya replied ever so softly, causing him to turn to look at her again."I see.""But… I want to join the Reaper Soul Legion.""What?"Davis couldn't help but smile as he shook his head, "You can't.""Why…?" Schleya's voice sounded a bit disappointed, "Is it because I'm weaker…?"She shot a glance at Yotan in the distance, having confidence that she could match her prowess if she was at the same level as her."No, Schleya. I'm elated to know that you want to join, but you aren't a soul cultivator to be joining the Reaper Soul Legion..""Oh…" Schleya looked as though she just realized before becoming unable to look at him in the eyes, "Then… I'll be your hidden dagger like an assassin. I'll do almost anything you and Mingzhi say to repay the debt I owe you.""What debt?" Davis raised his brows, "It was I owed you for making you go through that-""No, because of that, you saved me from falling to the devious plans of that bastard. In a way, you gave me a new path to walk on and even allowed me to realize the true essence of the Blood Pledge Worldheart Manual."Davis heavily shook his head, "That was Mingzhi..."

Who was she trying to fool?"Even so…" Schleya pursed her lips, looking agitated, "I will use this power you helped me gain to look after your family from danger."She descended, leaving a speechless Davis hovering in the air.Schleya collected the Blood Pledge Villa's Villa Master's corpse as she thought of refining it as her refining method allowed her to remove impurities and only absorb the energy derived from the blood essence. As for the sanguine ax lying beside him, she took it and held it in her grasp, causing her to feel a brilliant resonance from this Legacy Artifact.The spirit of the sanguine ax was ready to accept her as its master, perhaps adhering to the fact that she was a Vitalichor or simply her talent. However, the abnormally bloody and wicked aura it was encased in made her frown, causing her to resist the bond it was trying to create with her. Besides, using an ax wasn't her forte.But the main cause was that she didn't like the aura it was emitting, causing her to want to use it for other purposes, but then she heard his voice."If you do not want it, I'll take it as I have some uses.""Wait a minute..."Schleya nodded and didn't refuse, nor did she ask why but checked that bastard's spatial ring before she frowned, unable to find what she was looking for."The immortal section of the Blood Pledge Worldheart Manual should be deep inside the Treasury. Since that location is something that only the Villa Master can enter, I might need this sanguine ax to enter the core chamber.""Well, if we can't get in, I'll just destroy the gate blocking our way."Davis shrugged, causing Schleya to lightly smile, feeling assured.The two of them then unceremoniously entered the huge mansion of the Blood Pledge Villa. However, the people stayed silent as the Reaper Soul Legion menacingly hovered above them. To the Blood Pledge Villa's people, it was of little doubt that they held the sword to their throats at this moment, only needing a command to lop their heads off so they didn't dare misbehave.Inside the huge mansion, Davis and Schleya walked in hallways with narrow wideness but huge ceilings. The walls beside them were full of blood carvings, having recorded the verses of the Blood Pledge Worldheart Manual individually, and in that, Davis even saw the line Schleya spoke about, allowing him to remember how she dominated the battle between her and the Villa Master.Even now, he didn't know the Villa Master's name. He was either Villa Master or the bastard, at least according to Schleya. Now, the poor bastard really had an unlucky fate because he caused his soul to become extinct.

However, he wasn't interested in the late Villa Master but Schleya's origin as a Vitalichor."If you don't mind me asking, were your father and mother as important to you as your twin sister was?""No," Schleya shook her head, "I respect them, but they're not as important as my twin sister.""I see. So, you don't respect the founder of the Blood Pledge Villa at all for being a descendant of the direct line, do you?""Yes," Schleya nodded to Davis, "I don't care for being a direct descendant. I don't respect the founder's twisted views that they incurred later in their life, but for the most part, I agree with the founder. What I truly respect is the founder's ability to rectify this ordinary manual into a unique and exemplary one, equaling the cultivation manuals of the Dragon Families and the likes.""I understand. However, you are not just a Vitalichor, right?""What do you mean?"Schleya narrowed her brows, unable to understand, and looking at her confusion, Davis explained."Your mother or your father must be of different origin, no? That might give another explanation as to why you weren't killed by that bastard along with your twin sister. Besides, I received information that your Vitalichor Family disappeared from the Blood Pledge Villa for some time, making it so that your bloodline could've mixed with others, causing you to be no longer a descendant of the direct line anymore.""No, my Vitalichor Family always practiced intimate relationships with family members, and now that I think about it, this rule that our family followed makes sense because they didn't want to lose the founder's blood in them. That's why my father and mother are also brother and sister who looked after each other and made it to the Ninth Stage, rejoining the Blood Pledge Villa before being killed by that bastard.""…" Davis stared at Schleya, his lips twitching."Aren't you people taking Blood Laws to a whole new level?""Is there something wrong with it?" Schleya narrowed her brows, appearing clueless, "Wouldn't you also marry your talented little sister to keep your Loret Family bloodline pure?""…!?"Davis almost slipped his footing, not knowing how to respond to that statement as he shook his head.'Great, she doesn't even know the standard procreative do's and don'ts of the mortals...' Or should he say as expected of the introverted, blood demoness who didn't know much of the affairs between a man and a woman?He wryly smiled, continuing to walk forwards in the hallway without noticing that Schleya stopped, possessing a blank expression on her face.The next moment, she leaped like a leopard, silent and assassin-like, as she swung her hand, a crimson curved blade appearing in her grasp as she appeared as though she was about to lop off Davis's head!Davis sensed something odd and turned to look around at Schleya only to notice a blade an inch away from his neck!
