Chapter 1837 - Speculations

Evelynn looked at the white-haired Ellia, who was vastly different from before the last time she had seen, both age-wise and appearance-wise. Her aura went an overwhelming change that she couldn't almost recognize the person while her facial features were concealed under her semi-transparent veil.

"What do you want?"

Sect Master Bing Luli quickly arrived by Ellia's side, wanting to protect her, when Ellia raised her hand and gestured for the former to not interfere.

"Evelynn, I was looking forward to meeting you all, but an incident occurred..."

Ellia wryly spoke; meanwhile, the entire Mystic Ice Sect's jaw dropped.

What is this?

Why had Myria gone meek, perhaps overly friendly? And, who is Ellia!? Was that Myria's true name?

Evelynn raised her brows.

"If that's what you truly think, then return to us."

"Uhm…" Ellia appeared troubled as her pupils trembled, "I can't."

"Is it that you can't, or you couldn't because of her?"

"Little girl, watch your mouth."

Evelynn narrowed her eyes at Ellia's sudden change that appeared temperamental at the same time it seemed to be unnatural. She felt that the transition of her voice from friendly to ice-coldness was not a pleasant one indeed.

"Stay out of this.."

Ellia's lips moved again. Her body trembled before she cast a glance at Evelynn.

"Evelynn. I will return to you all one day but not at this moment. I just want you all to know that I'm not in any danger and living a good life in the Mystic Ice Sect."

Evelynn closely looked at Ellia before she turned around and flew away. Ellia relaxed, feeling like she had avoided a clash with them because of Myria's unneeded comment. Nevertheless, she couldn't believe how Evelynn had become strong. Her sheer presence and sinister aura were vastly different from the Evelynn she knew, kind yet stubborn who moved Davis's heart.

"Did you know that even after we married, your clothes were still in his room, not thrown out?"

Ellia's pupils dilated. Her heart shook as she received a soul transmission from Evelynn!

However, her foot suddenly moved, and her hand raised, causing Ellia to double down as she clenched her fist and stiffened her legs.

"If you dare to harm her, I will kill you!"

Ellia inwardly screamed at Myria, who controlled the body.

"Ridiculous! She's guilt-tripping you, and I don't want to experience these feelings of yours, so tell her to shut up!"

"I know! I'm sorry I let my guard down and influenced you. Forgive us both, okay!?"

"Hmph!"

"..."

The heated and conflicted emotions of two souls in one body slowly calmed.

Looking at Myria's brows go through a variety of emotions, the people of the Mystic Ice Sect were lost. Could it be that their Myria was acquainted with the Emperor of Death?

The Mandate Emperor and the others listened on as well and couldn't help but form their own assumptions.

Ellia took a deep breath before the light in her eyes became crystal clear, watching Evelynn return to her seat. A light smile appeared on her face as she felt joy. However, the problem with feeling strong emotions was that they tended to influence the other soul.

It worked both ways, and sometimes, she would be influenced by Myria's coldness and her tendency to distrust people, which she slowly melted with her own love and got her to this point where she made her care about the Mystic Ice Sect, at least, a bit.

Having access to each other memories didn't make it any good as they could later see what they planned against each other, but they finally created a technique for it, putting a barrier upon their individual thoughts so it wouldn't get mixed up unless they really wanted to look into each other's memories at which point they would know if the other person was prying into their memories.

However, the feelings that influenced each other remained. The deep emotions she had for Davis were solely hers and not Myria's. It was like inflicting a love hex or an aphrodisiac on someone else living under the same roof, which is a grave sin. Therefore, she felt apologetic for making Myria feel that way to someone she didn't even like.

"I'm sorry for saying that I will kill you." Ellia inwardly pleaded, "I didn't mean it. I promise."

"…"

"Myria…?" Ellia sounded as though as she was going to cry.

"Sigh, it's fine." Myria's voice sounded gentle, "I know how much you care about him and his family, who treated you good. I'm thankful for it too, but there's a limit to how they can act like they own you. I'm saying this with the utmost care for you in my heart, Ellia."

"Mhm, I know."

Ellia took a deep breath again, and this time, the unpleasant feelings disappeared from hearing Myria's kind voice. She turned to look towards the projections and saw that Mu Bing was still fine along with the other six maidens of their Mystic Ice Sect.

It was literally the smallest group in the battle arena. However, Myria specifically advised them to head towards Clara's group before she made her move on the thirty-two youths. The two groups could engage in a confrontation regardless of their notions, so it spoke volumes about how much faith Myria was willing to place in them as she did.

In the northern seating area of the New Era Battle Arena, the Mandate Emperor looked sent a soul transmission to the three leaders of the righteous child.

"What do you three think about this child?"

"We should investigate her origin first and foremost." The Starnova Emperor quickly commented, "It's like she came out of nowhere like the Emperor of Death."

"I agree…" The Karmic Guardian Emperor nodded, "But it seems that she is acquainted with the Hex Demoness, and that must at least mean she came from the Forbidden Phoenix Realm, just like we mused about this Drake Blackburn and Kara Moonridge but was instantly proved that they were born here in the Tripartite Alliance Territory as the Young Master of the Blackburn Family and a Fallen Princess of the Moonridge Kingdom."

"I suggest that we bring her in before she turns into another Emperor of Death."

"The Vast Sky Emperor thinks that she's that strong?" The Mandate Emperor's brows raised at his comment.

"Not necessarily. I'm saying that it's a possibility since she could make a move like that and still look refreshing as though she didn't sacrifice her blood essence. Don't you think it has some similarities to Emperor of Death's mysterious techniques if this was the case?"

"…"

Suddenly, no one could comment on the topic at hand as they weren't too sure. It took a few seconds before the Karmic Guardian Emperor spoke.

"This is a bit difficult to speculate. Nonetheless, did you three see what kind of ice energy Myria used? It might have some clues to her origin, but I'm not too sure if it's enough."

"Yes, but unfortunately, we didn't pay attention at that moment." The Vast Sky Emperor spoke, "However, the projections are being recorded for fair use and would be erased if need be, so we could privately rewind them again if we want to without making a fuss out of it."

"Do you think-"

"I just received information from the two arbitrators that the ice energy that child Myria used emanates an aura similar to the Burning Phoenix."

The Starnova Emperor asked but was interrupted by the Mandate Emperor, who then continued.

"However, they are not sure either."

The three others blinked their eyes.

Phoenix?

Why was it a phoenix again?

Suddenly, the Starnova Emperor struck his head as though he was a fool which startled the other three.

"What?" The Mandate Emperor asked with narrowed eyes.

"It's the Ice Phoenix Immortal Inheritance of the Forsaken Phoenix Realm."

"But if that's the case, what about that woman called Shirley who was sent as a prize to the Emperor of Death to form the alliance? After Sect Master Lea Weiss achieved such power that matches us, perhaps more, didn't we presume that this Shirley could possibly be the inheritor of the Fire Phoenix Immortal as the time she joined the Burning Phoenix Ridge matches the time the Emperor of Death revealed himself to the Alstreim Family?"

Hearing the Mandate Emperor's confusion, Starnova Emperor tried to explain.

"I mean, didn't the ancient records state that the Forsaken Phoenix Realm had the Ice and Fire Phoenix Immortal Inheritances and hence the difficulty to enter the mini-realm was vastly difficult until it became easier and easier throughout the years before being thwarted by the aboriginals that the Burning Phoenix Ridge had to abandon it since it wasn't netting them anything while considering the distance?"

"You mean to say that there were three Immortal Inheritances in that one single mini-realm then?"

After the Mandate Emperor finished sending the soul transmission, the atmosphere became silent as all four of them became stupefied by the sudden realization that it might be true!

The four of them descended into silence. They were really contemplating it, going through the history of these places and the records they found on them.

Even then, they didn't find anything about an Earth Dragon Immortal Inheritance, so how come there were three immortal inheritances in Forsaken Phoenix Realm if the Ice and Fire Phoenix Immortal Inheritances were also included in the same sentence!?

How can there be three at the same time? Such a probability was very low that they would have a better chance of ascending and surviving!

Instantly, jealous and greedy emotions tried to seep into their hearts.

However, the Mandate Emperor quickly came out of his reverie, not wanting to be overtaken by greed.

"Their peculiarity doesn't mean anything to the overall situation."

His authoritative words shook them out of their trance, causing them to look at him.

"Look out for the source of the Calamity Light. The Fate Discerning Talisman created by the Karmic Guardian Emperor should react once the source reveals itself. Even if it hides, be on the lookout. We should, no, must discern it and deal with it as needed."

"Yes."

The three of them replied. However, their eyes moved towards the big palanquin of the Alstreim Family before falling on Myria.

"!!!?"

However, they were momentarily shocked to see her looking at them before her eyes narrowed as though she was smiling, no… mocking?

"Idiots." Myria inwardly uttered to Ellia, who was similarly looking down on them, "As if that low-grade talisman that is constantly looking for something that has a karmic connection with the Calamity Light is going to find me… How long do they think I've been running away from pursuers?"

Ellia took her gaze away from them before looking at the projections.

"Well, you almost messed up if it weren't for me."

"Yes, thank you, but you're also responsible for making my soul aura unstable in the first place, so..."

"Uhh…" Ellia became embarrassed, "Let's just say that we're even."

"Hehehe~

A beautiful peal of laughter fell in Ellia's mind, causing her eyes to go wide before it became normal. She didn't think Myria would be enjoying this as much as she did but became heartened to see her genuinely laugh in amusement and a bit of happiness which she had never felt the latter from her!
