Chapter 1736: Peaceful Night?
"Brother, congratulations on marrying elder sis- uhm, sister-in-law Shirley."
Davis looked at Clara finally approach him with only a few guests left. He couldn't help but smile as he reached out his hand and patted Clara's head, making her close her eyes with a faint smile on her face.
She appeared cute as a cat under his caress.
"Well, you love your elder sister Shirley that if I had said no after what she did to me, you would've unhesitatingly killed me."
"Hehe~"
Shirley couldn't help but giggle at his words while Clara could only blink.
"Now that your elder sister Shirley has become your sister-in-law, you would have more time to spend with her. Don't seclude yourself in cultivation all day long, okay?"
He took his hand back after Clara nodded her head, who smiled like an angel.
Behind Clara, Davis saw Tia and couldn't help but purse his lips. He really didn't notice it before, but in a year, she had become quite mature. Just when he was about to greet her, a voice echoed out.
"Davis, it's time~"
Evelynn spoke at this moment, causing Davis to freeze before he took Shirley's hand.
"Alright, let's go to the nuptial chamber."
"What are you excited about?" Evelynn pouted, "This is just to say that you two went ahead and consummated the marriage. Don't you dare touch her!"
"I know, I know! Don't be so mean…"
Davis lowered his head and appeared sad, causing all of his women to laugh. However, Mo Mingzhi's lips curved as she winked at Fiora, whose eyes also similarly flickered as if they were forming a secret plot.
Davis walked hand-in-hand with Shirley to the nuptial chamber while his women followed, acting as 'witnesses'. After they reached before the wide door that made Shirley feel strange and shy, Mo Mingzhi's voice suddenly rang out.
"Davis, I convinced them that it was our custom to wear wedding rings since they have different ones. When are you going to praise me?"
"Your ideas are marvelous, Mingzhi. I love it."
Davis smiled at her as he turned to look around when he saw Mo Mingzhi grinning at him.
"We understand that only those who marry you will obtain the wedding ring. However, when are you going to wear your symbol of love for the four of them?"
Davis couldn't help but smile before he reached out both of his hands towards his robe.
"I thought what I can do this morning from the time Sophie handed me the wedding rings…"
"You…"
Looking at Davis remove his robes, Mo Mingzhi and the others were dumbfounded. However, he halted after removing the upper robe, displaying his strong, lean, chiseled abs that caused some of their mouths to go agape, especially those who were still virgins like Sophie and Niera.
He shot a confident smile at them and turned around, showing his back.
"I can't thank you all enough for being in my life and taking care of me while I was on the brink of death. You all push my back forward and support me in times of crisis, becoming my motivation to cultivate and reason to live to see the next day."
[Evelynn Cauldon]
[Natalya Astoria]
[Isabella Ruth]
[Shirley Ashton]
[Fiora Astoria]
[Mo Mingzhi]
[Sophie Alstreim]
[Nadia]
[Niera Alstreim]
[Tina Roxley]
While Davis spoke, they saw that his back had all their names etched on as though they were inscriptions, making their mouths that were already parted grow more agape.
"…!?"
"You inscribed our names on your body using the obscure soul writing method?" Isabella's eyes were wide with fascination and shock.
"Yes. It would reveal itself only when my soul force is used on them."
Davis grinned with a delighted smile but inwardly, he felt shameless.
"You…" Evelynn had her brows raised, "You didn't change our names to neither Loret nor Alstreim?"
Davis shook his head.
"I go by three names. It doesn't matter who I am, but I'm the same person to you all. Besides, I like the names you were born with, sounding melodious and pleasant."
Usually, having his name behind their names meant that he cared about and owned them, and not having it meant that he did not care about them and would let go of them anytime as he pleased, but his words made them ruefully smile as they understood that he was an eccentric in this regard.
"I… I'll work hard!~"
Iesha cried out as she came out from Natalya, looking enthusiastic as if to get her name Iesha Frostrain on his back.
"I'm glad you understand, Iesha."
Davis smiled as he reached out his hand and patted her crown while she lowered her head to accommodate him.
The others blinked as they found this spirit surprisingly cute. However, to think that he had already conquered Iesha's heart. They were quite astonished, to say the least.
Davis wore his robe back before he took Shirley's hand.
"Well, then, people, I'm off to satisfy my bride."
*Whoosh!~*
*Bang!~*
He displayed a pompous attitude before rushing into the nuptial chamber with Shirley in a princess carry and slammed the door on them before they could even react.
"Scoundrel! That's not my birth name but the name you gave me!"
"Pfft! Ahahaha!~"
Mo Mingzhi suddenly screamed as she clenched her fists, causing the others to burst into laughter. However, Mo Mingzhi's aggrieved expression slowly turned into one of a sly smile.
She walked out along with the others before she acted like she was leaving elsewhere. Sometime later, she returned to the nuptial chamber, standing in front of it, only to see that a green-robed woman was already here.
"I underestimated you, Fiora."
"Heavens, I hope fourth sister Shirley is merciful."
Fiora appeared as if she was praying as they grinned at each other and looked at the door to the heavens before they both froze.
A sharp sickle was before their throats, making them gulp as a figure emerged from the shadows behind them. Suddenly, the sickles extended before they wrapped around them in an embrace.
"You two are too naughty to be left alone~"
"Ah! Big sister Evelynn! Please spare us!"
"Huhuhu~ I had eyes but couldn't see Mt.Tai…"
Fiora and Mo Mingzhi cried as they were bound helplessly and brought away by Evelynn, who possessed a haughty yet victorious smile on her face.
"The outside is noisy, huh…"
Davis waved his hand and swiped away the projection that allowed the people inside the nuptial chamber to see what was going on outside.
"Yeah… the outside is noisy…"
Shirley sat on the bed beside him, still holding his hands, looking away as she bit her lips.
'This… I didn't expect it to be awkward…'
They both thought at the same time, their expressions having a forced smile on their face once they were left alone with each other.
"But, Fiora and Mo Mingzhi sure are so playful than me." Shirley suddenly found a distraction, "They have so much energy than me to be fooling around~ Too bad, I might've allowed them to stay if they managed to get in~"
"You jest…"
Davis chuckled, feeling his tense muscles relax. The awkwardness also left, allowing him to turn around and capture her chin as he made her look at him.
"Davis, you can't…"
Shirley's limpid crimson eyes trembled.
"I know."
Davis whispered and took her crimson lips. Shirley appeared so beautiful that he was practically hungry for her. He didn't entice her, neither did she seduce him as they shared gentle kisses on this momentous occasion of their wedding night.
"You won't take me?"
"Hmm. You're practically sacred in my eyes that I can only kiss."
"Sweet talker~"
Shirley deeply smiled as she snuggled herself into his embrace.
"I haven't slept in a week. Shall we sleep together after some time of banter?"
"Mhm~"
Davis asked as he moved back and laid on the bed while Shirley flew and landed beside him, laying her head on his arm. Subsequently, they chatted a lot about today's events and even spoke about Esvele as Shirley asked him if she could provide her resources, to which he nodded.
"Of course, you can. Esvele proved herself to me as your loyal follower. I don't mind."
"Thank you~ She will be happy to hear this. Hehe~"
Shirley reached out and kissed him on the cheek, giggling like an innocent lady in his arms.
*Knock!~*
Suddenly, a knock could be heard, causing Davis to widen his eyes as he sat up.
"Could it be them again?"
Davis imagined that Mo Mingzhi and Fiora could have escaped Evelynn's grasp. However, Shirley suddenly separated from his embrace and flew towards the door.
"Shirley, wait…"
Davis spoke as he reached out his hand, but Shirley paid no heed before she opened the door, her lips curving into a sly smile while the former's pupils dilated as he saw the person standing in front of the door.
