Chapter 1260: Finally Outside (1/2)

A bit of distance through the Lightning Sea, Nero Alstreim still couldn't help but have a bit of disbelief that this brat could calmly walk through this place of death with absolute calmness. As they walked, the strands of lightning parted, but it was only around for a radius of twenty-meter or so with Davis as the center.

They had enough space to maneuver, but when he realized that the brat could instantly cause him to die in this space regardless of his will, he couldn't help but be wary.

”Davis, what kind of existence are you?”

”Mhm? Are you asking me if I'm a human?” Davis turned back as he raised his brows towards Nero Alstreim's question.

”You cannot have this aura on you unless you have somehow gained that Immortal Inheritance. Is that why you sent us out?”

”To ask about that in this place, have you prepared yourself to die?” Davis laughed as he returned his gaze towards the front.

”I've prepared myself to die the moment I left with you, but if you cannot answer this here, then I'm dead anyway when we reach the other side, probably...” Nero Alstreim harrumphed.

Davis smilingly shook his head, ”Sometimes, deep suspicion is the root cause of most evils in a pleasant family...”

”We aren't family yet...” Nero Alstreim retorted.

Davis couldn't help but chuckle, ”Well, I'll say both yes and no because I have received benefits from the Blazing Thunderlight Kirin after I found a method to awaken it, but it was too bad that the inheritance had been long taken away just as you two hypothesized. All it did give me was two things, and one of them was the way to exit, which I'm using now.”

”What is the other thing?” Nero Alstreim curiously asked.

Davis looked back as he had his mouth agape, ”Do I have to tell you everything just because you're my father-in-law?”

Nero Alstreim became taken aback before he couldn't help but chuckle, ”That's right! I'm going to use my authority as the father-in-law to get answers from you!”

”Too bad... I don't respect my elders...” Davis turned around and continued flying at a rapid pace.

”You...!” Nero Alstreim trembled as he pointed at Davis with his finger, ”You are a hooligan!”

However, a smile couldn't help but appear on his face as he somehow liked this situation. He was risking his life, and yet, there was no sense of danger, at least for now.

After some time, he suddenly shouted, ”Wait!”

”What? Don't tell me you're scared to enter?” Davis teasingly chuckled as he pointed towards the ninth stage lightning bolts.

Nero Alstreim didn't know what to do. He had felt that there was no sense of danger, but he didn't expect to face one quickly. The moment he entered the space of ninth stage lightning strands, which he didn't expect to exist, he couldn't help but momentarily tremble in fear.

He would die if even a single strand touched him!

However, looking at that brat casting him a provocative smile, he harrumphed, ”Whatever, it's not like it's going to enter your aura's forcefield.”

He started flying again while Davis inwardly laughed, 'Even if you know that in your mind, can you still fly without shivering? This is like standing on a see-through, glass-surfaced building on the ninety-ninth floor. Even if you absolutely know that you won't fall, will you be convinced that you would not really fall?'

He didn't say anything and continued to fly while Nero Alstreim trembled while catching up to him. If he stayed, he would be turned into a human fry regardless.

During this time, Nero Alstreim was absolutely silent until they got out of the ninth stage lightning sea. Davis couldn't help but turn around and laugh, ”I can see that you had enjoyed your trip.”

”Yes, I no longer am afraid of anything...” Nero Alstreim raised his fist and acted pompous, making Davis roll his eyes because he knew that the other party was trembling like he couldn't wait to come under his protection.

Even he felt a bit scared if the aura would fail to keep the ninth stage lightning at a distance, but fortunately, it was able to keep them safely away from him.

”Well, I'm glad that you became fearless because we're already crossed sixty percent of the distance.”

Nero Alstreim's heart couldn't help but skip a beat that he quickly opened his mouth, ”Let's travel a bit faster...!”

”Hehe... Aren't you hasty for getting out?”

”Of course!!! It's our long-forgotten wish! If you can take us out like you said you would and not planned an ambush as I suspected, I'll accept that I was wrong for doubting you and kowtow three times to you!.”

Davis looked shocked as he turned back, ”Are you serious!?”

Nero Alstreim became taken aback, realizing that he had uttered something extremely humiliating in that passionate moment. His lips couldn't help but quiver, ”I... Yes! I will kowtow... thrice!”

Davis looked at him in suspicion, realizing that he had given away his words and couldn't take them back. He slyly chuckled, ”Then wash your knees and wait for me to take you all to the Alstreim Family. I can't wait for a kowtow from the father-in-law!”

Nero Alstreim's expression fell. Now he didn't know if he wanted the other party to lead them all away or not because his face was at stake here.
