Chapter 2309 Threatened?

Chapter 2309 Threatened?

Not only Ancestor Cornelia but everyone couldn't help but be shocked at this revelation.

A Burning Phoenix had transformed into a Fire Phoenix, but as it underwent a nirvanic rebirth in its transformation after dying to a heavenly tribulation strike, it survived and returned to being a Burning Phoenix?

Had they ever heard such an unbelievable story elsewhere?

"Bloodline changes at the threat of death have always been a mystery, but talk about being unlucky..." Klade lightly laughed at his fate.

"Unlucky?"

However, Ancestor Cornelia's eyes glimmered with tears as she believed everything he said.

"I would've given anything up to see you alive."

Seeing them once again embrace, everyone couldn't help but smile.

On the other hand, Founder Alstreim Windstorm couldn't help but blink, an embarra.s.sed expression appearing on his face.

"It seems like a Nirvanic Rebirth isn't possible but if Ancestor Cornelia somehow manages to become an immortal beast and performs Nirvanic Rebirth with Klade, he should be able to survive, but she would die."

Davis and Lea looked at each other, the latter holding a hint of pleading in her eyes. Before Davis could reply, he heard the old couple talk again.

"Don't hate yourself. Since you didn't ascend, I know that jealous b.a.s.t.a.r.ds would've deceived you. They were afraid that I'd soar as a Fire Phoenix in the future, and some of them courted you many times before I married you, after all."

"They've ascended..." Ancestor Cornelia's eyes became wide, "I want to kill them..."

"I met them many times and they they said you married into the Weiss Fam-"

"How dare they!?" Ancestor Cornelia screamed with rage, causing Klade to tremble as he felt faint.

"I know. I know. You wouldn't have done it."

"Husband, please believe me. I've remained faithful to you ever sin-"

Klade placed a hand on her mouth, gesturing with his near-blind eyes for her to calm down. Surprisingly, Ancestor Cornelia's trembling body melted in his touch, becoming calm.

"Cornelia, I didn't believe them because I know they said that to rattle my will. After all, they could only display envy when they saw that I was a Burning Phoenix instead of a Fire Phoenix yet was still rising faster than them in cultivation."

"Mhm~ I know you were always special."

Davis and the others blinked.

That high and proud Ancestor Cornelia of the Burning Phoenix Ridge was nothing but a woman in love now, panicking at the slightest hint that her husband might doubt her in his heart.

Lea gawked. Remembering how she was teased by Davis and Ancestor Cornelia back when she was faced with a heart demon of being unable to leave Davis, she couldn't help but giggle out a peal of laughter as she wiped her tears.

It was no wonder Ancestor Cornelia sympathized with her. They were on the same side of the coin.

"They are?"

Klade's gaze moved to the black-robed, black-haired man and the bevy of beauties behind him. Only now did he notice that there were two Emperor-Tier Bloodlines ent.i.ties behind Ancestor Cornelia, and even though they obviously had the air of mortals, he became stunned.

Perhaps, if he had eyes, he would've been stunned beyond compare by their beauties. However, he understood that these mortals were anything but common in an instant, and yet, the black-robed, black-haired figure in front of them appeared extremely common, as though he had nothing to speak about himself.

"My apologies."

Davis rubbed his face and then held his black hair in a lock with his palms, sliding it back before the majestic blondness revealed itself. Instantly, the handsome genes of the Alstreim and Loret combined were put on display over his face, causing Founder Alstreim Windstorm's family to gawk.

The sharpness this fellow didn't possess instantly changed itself as a tyrannical and mystical aura enveloped them. Although it didn't affect them as immortals, they couldn't help but wonder what it was. However, the Level One and Level Two Immortals felt a chill on their spines, wondering why they felt like an ant in his presence.

Klade was also considerably taken aback once again. His eyes were dead, but his senses were not.

However, he was not surprised. After all, how could a high and mighty swans follow a toad? Such a figure must be an over-encompa.s.sing and star-seizing crane!

Once Davis removed his disguise, he cupped his hands.

"My birth name is Davis Loret, and I also belong to the Alstreim Family since I have my mother's blood running in my veins. Since one of my beloveds, Lea Weiss, Sect Master of the Burning Phoenix Ridge, considers Ancestor Cornelia to be her mother, I'd guess that I'd be forced to call you father-in-law in the near future, perhaps."

"Davis!"

Lea blushed as she stared at Davis. What if Klade misunderstood them? After all, Ancestor Cornelia had been framed to be married into the Weiss Family by what Klade recounted.

"Cornelia, you adopted a daughter? Ahaha! What a lovely child to be bashful even after becoming a Sect Master."

Lea couldn't help but blush more despite her stone-cold expression. As a Sect Master, she really found it embarra.s.sing for her secrets to being revealed like that but also felt at ease with Klade approving of it.

However, Ancestor Cornelia remained unresponsive as she looked at Lea and the others.

Abruptly, she rushed toward Davis and fell to her knees.

"!"

Her actions stunned the crowd, causing them to not understand what was going on.

"Remember when you threatened that you'll heal me and make me unable to die, and if I try to kill myself, you will seal my cultivation and make me live far more than I should into captivity...?"

Davis reached out his hand, wanting to lift Ancestor Cornelia, but she stopped him, holding his wrists as she trembled, looking into his eyes with hope.

"I do, and that deal is still up for you." He answered as an awkward smile emerged on his face, "Except the cultivation sealing and captivity part, of course."

"Even if I have to trade that deal for Klade, I would." Tears emerged from Ancestor Cornelia's old phoenix eyes before she bowed all the way to his feet, "But I also want to live, so I beg you...! Please save my husband and allow us to have a new lease on life!~"
