Mo Mingzhi’s smile froze as she yelped in a confused demeanor, "What?"

Davis garnered her reaction and continued, "The universe as you may recognize is bigger than you think... Forget the scientific implications, and cast your gaze to the cultivation world. You can realize your ambitions and gain untold powers. You can even be the Empress of an entire Empire if you so wished and struggled arduously in the path of cultivation."

Mo Mingzhi’s eyes were glazed, however, she blinked.

Davis who was looking at the changes in her reaction understood that she was vaguely interested.

Actually, who wouldn’t!?

But before he could continue, she interrupted him, "Are you... taking me... in?"

Davis became tongue-tied. Her wording was a little bit on the edge, ambiguous even...

Suppressing the urge to cough, he spoke, "If you so wish, I can take you to our place and grant you with resources that will enable you to cultivate. That’s as far as I can go..."

Mo Mingzhi’s eyes brightened as if her soul lit up and she leaned forward, "I’ll follow you!"

Davis couldn’t understand this woman’s thought process. He had killed her father but she was unwilling to be hostile to him, instead, she had even fallen in a hopeless case of infatuation with him.

Maybe it was because she deemed her father to be a scum, and no longer bothered with that scum anymore.

Whatever her thoughts maybe, he inwardly heaved a sigh of relief since he knew that Mo Mongzhi wasn’t hostile from Clara’s interpretation.

"That’s settled then... Pack your things, we’re leaving soon..." Davis didn’t give her a few days to think. If she was going to ask for time, he felt that it would be better to leave without her.

Mo Mingzhi blinked once again and then moved away from them promptly in a dazed manner. The way she walked as if she wasn’t sure and was in disbelief regarding the situation.

Davis turned to look at Clara and asked, "Well, are you satisfied with this decision of mine?"

Clara looked as if she was pondering over the matter. A moment later, she opened her mouth, "Brother thinks that letting her live in our cultivation world will change her perspective and let her extricate herself from you?"

"If so, I’m satisfied with the kind of responsibly you’ve taken."

Davis nodded his head as he didn’t want to disappoint his little sister. He thought that this responsibility stuff didn’t apply to him because he hadn’t done anything bad to Mo Mingzhi in the first place.

If Mo Mingzhi was obsessive for him for whatever reason he couldn’t understand, how could he even take responsibility for that, or did he even need to?

Could it be that he needs to act responsibly for each and every person who selfishly thinks that he would care for them?

Wait!?

’Is that how Gods think? That is if they even existed in the first place?’ Davis thought but then shook his head.

In any case, in his eyes and to his knowledge, there were only powerful entities and no omnipotent gods as represented in Earth’s religions.

He took this decision because he didn’t want to disappoint his little sister. He didn’t want to set a bad example for her.

Nevertheless, his eyes fell on Mo Mingzhi’s back which disappeared into another room.

=====

In half an hour, Mo Mingzhi stood beside them with a refreshed face and uttered, "I’m ready!"

Davis blinked. It was as if her earlier will to die and her disbelief to his words were as was fake as it could get but from Clara’s eyes, he knew that it wasn’t the case.

Could she really change her thought process like this? If so, this meant that she could get over him too...

Davis was assured as he nodded his head. He invoked Karma Laws and his expression turned quite unsure.

It was still fucking red! Even brighter than before!

The thread connecting them was not loose from his perspective, it appeared even stronger. In fact, he could no longer see those black spots as it was fully encroached by that red color.

His gaze fell at her refreshed and fit figure that was covered by a formal shirt and pants. Her short shoulder-length black but wet hair covered both the sides of her neck.

Davis had to accept that she looked like a classical yet modern beauty with her free-flowing hair. Even though she was his nemesis’ daughter, she had inherited his good-looking genes, and probably her mother who was also a beauty.

’Maybe she would become even more beautiful after beginning cultivation.’ Davis mused and calmed his nerves as he spoke, "Are you sure that you have taken care of everything here? We probably won’t be coming back here in the future."

Mo Mingzhi looked as if she was pondering. She then nodded her head and spoke, "I’m not really close with anyone here, and I have no family... to speak of, so yes, I’m ready."

Davis blinked a little as he felt that she was taking a silent jab at him for killing her father.

Well, at least she didn’t blame him for killing her whole family.

Even he was unsure what had happened to her mother or others but with her words right now, he understood that she had been living alone all this while.

Davis could only let out a sigh inwardly.

"Also, I’m no longer Tian Long but Davis Loret, and she is my younger sister Clara Loret."

Mo Mingzhi paused for a short while before muttering, "Mmm, I understand, Tian Long."

Davis locked his lips and shook his head. If she was intent on calling him Tian Long, then he wasn’t bothered by it, however, he was troubled by it.

After all, he had already accepted his new identity as his old one could be said to be already dead from like 17 years ago.

Davis suddenly froze!

’Wait! 17 years ago?’ He came out of his reverie and instantly realized something.

Simultaneously, he realized that he had overlooked another matter and that made his pupils tremble in shock.

His hand stretched above and stopped at his face, blocking one of his eyes as he trembled, even his eyes shook from the intensity.

"Brother, what’s wrong?" Clara spoke in a worried tone as she noticed her elder brother’s abnormality. She turned suddenly cautious and looked around for any anomalies.

She was still wary of that mysterious space.

Suddenly, Davis’s pupils eyed Mo Mingzhi as he frightened the latter.

"What year is it now?"

Mo Mingzhi stuttered as she felt his death-like stare, "20... 2050"

She couldn’t help but take a step back and shudder at his sudden reaction.

’Was he this intimidating?’ She couldn’t remember since she had only seen a smile from his face in the past and present.

Davis moved his gaze away from her and took a deep amount of cold breath.

2050? He already knew this because he had checked the news and even the date from the bracelet he stole from that brat but couldn’t help but confirm one more time by asking Mo Mingzhi since he had overlooked this matter.

If this was true... Then...

’There’s a three-year gap...’ Davis’s eyes couldn’t help but tremble in shock once again.

The matter he realized just might be a coincidence but it seemed to perfectly fit into place to be brushed off as a coincidence.

Thinking back...

Tian Long had transmigrated using the spatial formation at the secret temple in 2030 and lived as Davis Loret for over 17 years...

If so, the year should be 2047, not 2050.

’A 3-year gap...’ Davis repeated in his mind again as it reverberated through his soul.
