Chapter 427: Youre That Boy! (1/2)

A slap echoed, resounding throughout the area.

Hadian was shocked! He placed his palm on his cheek as he felt it burn from pain.

”Are you an idiot? Do you think your enemy will sympathize with your thoughts and reciprocate your feelings?”

Hadian grew even more stunned. He had just become a slave but he was already being disciplined? He couldn't help but feel that he should live anymore with this insult.

His teeth clattered from immense rage and shame.

What choice did he have other than to exchange his life for his woman? Could it be that he was allowed to make a contract with the other party?

Ridiculous!

Other than doing a leap of faith and hoping for the best outcome, none of the future was in his hands.

His face contorted but he didn't lash out. He knew that there was someone whom he should protect with his entire life was behind him.

”Miss Mulia, I'm disappointed. Is this the man you chose? It's fine if the outcome is beneficial to you but he tried to do something useless like sacrificing himself in vain?”

Hadian turned confused as he heard the former part of the sentence but then his eyes widened.

'What!? This person knew Mulia?'

Behind Hadian, Mulia clenched her fists in helplessness as she looked at her beloved being humiliated but then turned stunned when she heard the blurry figure's words.

The blur that was obstructing from seeing Davis's face quivered and disappeared.

Mulia's eyes froze but then she muttered a moment later, ”You... You're that boy...”

Davis's lips curved into a smile, an evil one to be exact.

Mulia felt a chill up her spine when she saw his expression.

Just as Davis tried to reach his hands towards Mulia as if he was going to touch her, a voice echoed behind him.

”This farce has gone for too long, my dear husband.”

Davis froze and turned to look back at the approaching Evelynn with an awkward smile on his face. Her words were filled with an abnormal tone, especially at the latter part of the sentence.

He inwardly let out a sigh realizing that he had gone a little bit far with his acting.

”Alright, Miss Mulia, take care, I'll be leaving then...” Davis said in a casual tone as he turned around.

Mulia couldn't comprehend what had happened while Hadian couldn't either.

”Wait!”

Mulia suddenly shouted as she panicked.

”Hmm?”

Davis looked back at her and shot her an inquisitive gaze.

”You... Release him from that slave seal!” Mulia shouted as she pointed towards Hadian, unable to calm herself down. Disbelief was still clouding her mind.

Davis turned amused, ”Why should I?”

”You! ...I saved you at that time!” Mulia yelled in grievance. Her eyes were still moist and desperate, different from the time she had faced others calmly and indifferently.

It was as if the latter personality was a facade to distance herself from numerous people.

Hadian currently had a lost expression on his face while still covering his cheek. He looked below him, looking at the fainted Sixth Stage Cultivators and the fleshy remains of the Seventh Stage Cultivators.

He turned to look back at Mulia, not understanding what was going on. If they were friendly, why did all this mess ensue in the first place? Why did he have to sell himself to become a slave? He was absolutely lost.

”Miss Mulia, you were supposed to be dead at that tomb. Don't you know why you're still alive right now?” Davis spoke back, making her realize.
