Chapter 1276: Walls Broken (1/2)
After some time of waiting before Natalya's room, Evelynn finally saw the door open as a figure draped in a snow-patterned blue-robe emerged from inside the room.
”Evelynn~ You're here! Did Davis say anything new?” Natalya had a cheerful smile on her face as she eagerly asked.
Evelynn couldn't help but return the smile as she felt that she was right. Like her, Natalya was also always thinking of Davis, and in this year, she was the one who brought news about Davis to Natalya for most of the time when they meet once in a while, so it could be said that Natalya always expected news about Davis from her.
They embraced each other, feeling affectionate before Evelynn held Natalya's soft hands, ”I do have some news, but first, won't you invite me inside?”
”Ah!~ Sorry~” Natalya giggled as she held her grasped Evelynn's wrist before dragging her back into her room.
The two beautiful ladies entered as the door closed on itself, but an invisible ripple that remained unseen to the more untrained eyes could be seen crossing into the room before the door completely closed.
”Big sister, sorry. I had to finish the final circulation of the Forsaken Yin Lotus Manual. Otherwise, I would face a backlash.”
”I know. You don't even have to explain that... Hehe...” Evelynn giggled.
”No, I took longer than usual, so an explanation is indeed in need...!” Natalya waved her hand, appearing righteous before she giggled along with Evelynn.
The sight of these two women holding hands and laughing in harmony was gold to a certain peeper who remained silent even now.
They sat on a table before Natalya's face lit up, ”Oh my manners...! Let me serve some tea...”
Natalya stood up just as she sat, but Evelynn reached out her hand and held her as she stopped her, ”Wait, there is no need. Instead, I have some exceptional news to share.”
Natalya blinked, her eyes shining with a curious light as she sat down, ”Okay, I'll listen to big sister.”
”But...” She suddenly squinted her eyes, ”Big sister, you seem... oddly refreshed...? Does it have anything to do with this exceptional news you mentioned about?”
Evelynn blushed upon hearing Natalya's words as she nodded her head. Indeed, after that intense session with Davis, she was not lonely anymore and shone brightly like a woman in love.
”Oh, that makes me more curious!~ Something that could make big sister smile bright like a star is worth more than a resource that is equal to an entire year's worth of cultivation!”
”You little...” Evelynn bit her lips as she grinned, ”You've become a sweet talker as well.”
”Hehehe...” Natalya giggled, but she did not notice 'as well' from Evelynn.
”The thing is...” Evelynn's expression became excited, ”Our husband has reached the King Soul Stage!~”
”The King Soul Stage!!!” Natalya stood up as she screamed, a stunned expression appearing on her face. However, that stunned expression faded away as her entire body began to tremble as a wide smile appeared on her face.
”I'm so happy~” Her eyes became moist before she quickly rubbed her eyes, preventing the tears from falling, ”Our husband has become so powerful in a short amount of time. He practically caught up to our third sister.”
”Practically?” Evelynn couldn't help but feel excited along with her, ”Knowing our husband, his soul prowess must be unimaginable that it must be at least be comparable to Mid-Level King Soul Stage Experts. That is practically unheard of in the King Soul Stage, and as far as I know, no one can compare to our husband when his age is factored, Natalya.”
Natalya couldn't help but nod twice, ”Yes! Yes! What's more, he has now gained a respected and feared title that shakes the hearts of people in the entire Fifty-Two Territories!”
”He has now become a Soul King!!!”
She couldn't help but squeal in excitement while Evelynn, who hadn't thought of the meaning of Soul King before, couldn't help but shiver once she realized the greatness of it. Her previous knowing-all attitude was nowhere to be seen.
”Wait...!” Natalya suddenly blinked while her figure had stopped trembling, ”Didn't our husband say that the goal of this training session was to become a Soul King...? Doesn't this mean that he could be on his way back, like even right now?”
”Yeah, he could be...” Evelynn mysteriously spoke as she possessed a teasing smile on her face.
Natalya's expression froze. She couldn't help but blink again, ”Big sister, don't tell that he had informed you that he is already on his way back?”
”Hehe...” Evelynn giggled, ”Perhaps, he might be right behind you?”
Natalya blinked twice before she couldn't resist turning around. However, there was no one there, causing her to turn embarrassed. She turned around and pouted, ”Big sister, you're teasing me now~”
However, Evelynn's expression froze as she looked behind Natalya.
Natalya narrowed her eyes before a smirk appeared on her lips, ”Big sister, if you think you can fool me twice, that's a big mistake.”
She raised her hand and patted her bosoms as if acting like a hero.
”I, Natalya, am never fooled twice!~ Wha-!!!”
”!!!”
Abruptly, she felt a warm hand wrap around her waist, causing her to entirely freeze. The next moment, the essence energy inside her rapidly churned as if she was about to launch an attack. However...
”It's been a year, Natalya...”
