However, no one knew about his disgraceful self, because he had decisively killed the woman whom he had tried to get on with it even though it was one of his wives. Even her corpse was still in his spatial ring, fresh from the time he had killed her, nevertheless, he placed no thoughts on her.

Time pa.s.sed as he tried to heal his soul through Soul Forging Cultivation, however, the effect it provided him was small, negligible even... unless he could find a soul healing ingredient.

Even that wouldn"t be enough as he would have to find a skilled alchemist to make a pill, potentially removing the side effects that come with the soul healing ingredient.

*Creak!~*

Suddenly, his eyes shot wide open as he forcefully stopped cultivating his soul, which resulted in his actions being delayed in the process.

His reaction to the source of danger became slow!

When he had just slightly turned his head, he saw a slender arm reaching out to him, like a snake-shaped hand trying to capture his neck.

He tried to move but a pressure suddenly dawned on his soul, delaying his reaction even more. The lithe hand instantly clasped his neck, holding him in place when suddenly he spewed a mouthful of blood as he felt a blow to the abdomen.

Blood splashed from the hold and he saw a black-robed silver masked woman clasping his neck strongly, making him unable to extricate himself.

A hole had been created in his abdomen, injuring his dantian to a great degree. All his Law Dominion Essence Energy started leaking out like a balloon that had its helium release through a stable vent.

"W-Who?" Blood bubbled in his mouth as he posed the question his eyes revealing both hatred and fear.

He saw the woman go silent for a while before she removed her mask, and then his eyes shot wide open in shock, "It"s you!"

Princess Isabella put the mask back on and spoke calmly, "Any last words?"

Her voice sounded ethereal, without emotions. It was as if her hatred for him at that time became a fleeting memory.

The man relaxed however his eyes shook, constantly reminding him to retaliate. However, there was a question on his head which he wanted to know the answer to, even exceeding his will to live.

His lips quivered before he asked the reason for his messy state, "What Soul Technique did you use to break my technique at that time? How can it continuously haunt me?"

Princess Isabella dragged her free hand behind her shoulders and clenched her small fingers into her palm, forming a fist.

The Aras.h.i.+ Family Head saw her mouth move before he felt her fist shatter his head to a b.l.o.o.d.y mess, exterminating his soul in the process.

"A drop of diluted Blood Essence from the Earth Dragon Im--...." He only heard these words before his consciousness faded into nothingness, becoming unable to make sense of it as his life dispersed.

The Aras.h.i.+ Family Head"s head was nowhere to be seen as only blood paste and the white matter from the brain remained while not even the bones survived her small yet terrifying fist.

Princess Isabella didn"t catch his collapsing body but swiped her hands, only to see a spatial ring rest in her palm.

She then threw the spatial ring to Davis, "Check if the required medicinal pills are in there..."

Davis caught and checked it without providing a reply. He only held it for a second and saw numerous wealth equaling about less than half of the wealth he had obtained from the loot before from killing the people of the Tripart.i.te Alliance.

He didn"t even frown for a split second as he threw the spatial ring back to her, "He doesn"t have a medicinal pill with him that emanates King Grade undulations."

Even without opening and checking the jade boxes which contained the pills, Davis was able to check the contents in a split second when he sent his senses inside.

The placement of the items had been neatly arranged and was in order, so the pills he saw were all in one place. Besides, the jade boxes which sealed the pill even had names imprinted on to them, indicating their grade and property.

"As expected of a family head, very sensitive to the order of things..." A fleeting thought pa.s.sed by Davis"s head.

"There"s even a naked woman"s corpse, and it"s still fresh..." He didn"t bother to inform Princess Isabella and shook the corpse"s image from his mind.

The loot from the Aras.h.i.+ Family Head belonged to Princess Isabella, so he decisively gave it to her.

Princess Isabella sighed, "Let"s check the treasury then, however, you"re only allowed to take the required medicinal pill for your people."

Davis blinked before his sharp gaze shot towards Princess Isabella, "Are you commanding me?"

Princess Isabella"s heart shook suddenly as she sensed his gaze which was like a dagger. Only then did she realize that she had been talking to him casually, a person who could eliminate her with a piece of paper.

With just a piece of paper...

Her eyes only avoided his gaze for a split second before she replied, "I"m not..."

"Then I"ll try to respect your wishes..." His lips curved.

Princess Isabella turned inwardly stunned before she instantly spoke, "Let"s go."

Davis nodded his head and the two of them were again clad in "Dark Concealing Shroud Art" which concealed their presence.

In a few minutes, she and Davis stood before the treasury, their gazes locked at the heavy and robust gate which seemed to be capable of taking a full-strength punch from a Low-Level Martial Master Stage Cultivator.

Combined along with the Low-Level King Grade Defensive Formation, it was able to hold against the onslaught of a Low-Level Seventh Stage Cultivator until its energy expires from exhaustion.

However, to Princess Isabella"s might, the heavy and robust gate wasn"t a problem, neither was the Elder who was beside it, casually seated as if didn"t have a care in this world.

Without a cue from Davis, she clenched her fist, twisted her waist and threw her arms towards the gate.

*Boom!~*

An explosion resounded, echoing throughout the large-sized residence, alerting numerous people while sending the elder who was seated beside flying in entirely another direction.

People of the Aras.h.i.+ Family instantly noticed the commotion and started to panic!

"The explosion is from the direction of the treasury!"

"Summon the Family Head!"

"Family Head is in seclusion!"

"It"s an emergency! Quickly gather the elders and surround the intruder!!

At this time, another despairing shout was heard, "Family Head"s life tablet has shattered!!"

At this time, the sound of shattering simultaneously echoed throughout the residence, not physically but the sound in many of their hearts.

It was like a plague that quickly spread to every soul in their vicinity. They could see the trepidation in each other"s eyes. The look of despair.

The next moment, they all saw figures flying in the air. A man and a woman. They were dressed in black robes and hid their faces with silver masks.

Before they could even respond, the two figures in the air simultaneously disappeared, as if they never existed in the first place.

Numerous people blinked their eyes thinking that it was an illusion. They only glanced at the skies for another fleeting moment before rus.h.i.+ng to secure the entire residence.

In a few seconds, the entire residence was surrounded by the powerhouses of the Aras.h.i.+ Family and covered in active offensive formations, however, the intruders were nowhere to be seen!
