Chapter 126

Shirley shook her head,

"I don't know . . . From that time, many of my siblings kept reminding me of how I missed the chance to become the world's strongest woman . Every day, I kept thinking if the decision that I made at that time was right or wrong .

"

"Well, since I made that decision, it is fated that I won't be together with him again . I just wanted to know if I was right or wrong . . .

"

"And . . .

" Her shoulders sank,

"Going by your story, I was wrong for the first time in my life!

"

"Do you regret it?

" Evelynn asked again, thinking that she will receive a different answer this time .

"Not yet . . .

" Replying instantly, Shirley smirked with a smile .

Hearing her reply, Evelynn felt confused,

"Not yet?

"

Shirley's eyes suddenly burned with fighting spirit,

"I will battle him once again if I successfully gain the immortal inheritance! Then I will prove myself to him!

"

"Immortal inheritance!!

" Evelynn widened her eyes, she knew what it was as Davis casually told her about this matter once during their travel .

But confusedly, she asked,

"Prove exactly what?

"

"Prove that in no way I am inferior to him!

" Shirley clenched her fists as she thought to the time when she was utterly dominated by him .

Thinking about that event sent shivers down her spine . It had kept reminding her about him involuntarily and caused her emotions to go awry all this time .

As a Royal Elite, she had her own pride which she rarely shows outside, but it had been crushed by him . She could take this humiliation if he was the same age as her, but reality proved otherwise .

Evelynn wryly laughed as she thought about the time she challenged him, she muttered,

"Right . . . I think that I could already see the result though . . .

"

"What?

" Shirley heard her murmur but couldn't catch her words .

"Ah! . . . Nothing . . .

" Evelynn smilingly looked at her with a mysterious gaze .

Shirley dubiously gazed at her and replied .

"If you say so . . . Let's go back!

"

. . .

Davis kept conversing with Emperor Ashton . From their conversation, he understood that apparently that a banquet will be held after two days, celebrating her 21st birthday .

During that time, it seemed like there would be plenty of youths fighting for the opportunity to marry her in the future .

This came as a total surprise for him as he originally thought that Emperor Ashton had been still aiming for him, but it surely doesn't seem like the case right now .

"I see that you have given up on persuading her to marry me,

" Davis replied as he laughed .

"Aiya . . . I've spoiled her too much . From my point of view, she had certainly ruined her future prospects .

"

"Ahh . . . That's necessarily not the case . After all, the immortal inheritance is nigh upon us . Looking at the facts, Shirley and I are the only ones who have a chance to inherit it .

"

Emperor Ashton sighed as he placed his hand on his forehead,

"What you said makes sense, but the information you gave us is vague . We haven't even reached the fabled Sixth Stage, yet you people say that there is an immortal inheritance that lets us reach the beyond the Ninth Stage .

"

He removed his hands and flicked his sleeves,

"Let's not talk about that, even if you didn't gain the inheritance, you still have your master, and I think that your master is at the immortal level since his Immortal self is able to come to our continent without being restricted by our world's laws .

"

"Meaning, you will surely reach the Immortal Stage one way or another, while the same couldn't be said about my daughter . . .

" He said as his eyes shone with a disappointed gaze .

Davis kept his mouth shut while he smiled wryly . Hearing out his opinion, he couldn't help but admit that what he said was reasonable .

With the death note, he had blind confidence that he could at least make it to the Immortal Stage .

"And she's back . . . That unfilial daughter of mine!

" Emperor Ashton gnashed his teeth as he spoke .

Turning his head back, Davis saw Shirley and Evelynn walking together .

"Go back to your palace, Shirley . You have no business here!

" Emperor Ashton shouted out .

"Alright, Royal Father!~

" Shirley grinned as she left obediently .

'Hmm? He didn't call her out here? Then that means she came here by her own will?' Davis felt confused .

He suddenly couldn't help but think that he put a lot of thought into this matter and became a narcissist as a result .

'I should stop overthinking . . . '

Shaking his head, he looked at Evelynn and questioned,

"Where did you go?

"

"Just for a little walk with my new friend . . .

" She replied as she smiled .

"Ohh . . . A new friend you say? When did that happen?

" With a peculiar expression on his face, he questioned .

"I don't know . . . Maybe at the Grand Sea Continent Meet or now .

" Smiling widely at him, she held his hands .

"Well, you two should go sightseeing! Our Royal Capital has tons of markets, tons of shops and many beautiful sceneries to see around!

" An elder laughed as he boasted about this Royal Capital .

"Why not? No need to care about us . I will see you elders during the time of the banquet . Until then, we both bid farewell .

" Davis replied and clasped his hands .

Emperor Ashton and the others also clasped their hands and left .

Davis and Evelynn looked around . They were on top of the wall, but no guard bothered to inform them to get down from the wall .

Apparently, no one bothered to care about them anymore .

Davis shrugged at Evelynn . He suddenly got an idea as he used this chance to pick her up again and jumped from the walls .

"Ahhhhh!!!

" Evelynn screamed loudly as she closed her eyes and tightly held his neck while she hid her face in his chest .

Davis had a smile on his face . 'No matter how many times I scare her, it still works!'
