Just as Petra was showing her massive gratitude towards her master that she had just declared, a young boy suddenly barged into the room angrily.
"Petra!!" The boy screamed at the top of his lungs.
Startled by the sudden entrance of the young boy, Petra paused mid-sentence and turned her attention towards him.
Her expression shifted from gratitude to confusion, trying to make sense of the unexpected interruption and in the end, she frowned her eyes.
"Excuse me," Petra said, her voice carrying a tone of irritation, "Why are you here Mark, and what brings you here so abruptly?"
Mark's face was flushed with anger, and his eyes filled with bitterness.
He took a moment to catch his breath before responding, his voice trembling with emotion.
"How could you do this to me? We were perfectly fine a few days ago. So how could you just end our relationship just like that? Were all those years meant nothing to you!"
He exclaimed, pointing a finger at Petra.
Petra's eyebrows furrowed as she recall the interactions she have had with Mark some time ago.
To prevent any misunderstanding Daniel might have, Petra tries to clear the issue.
"Mark, I believe there's been a misunderstanding. I am no longer your woman. Could you please explain what this is all about?"
Mark took a step forward, his anger seeming to intensify.
"Don't pretend like you don't know!"
He shouted.
His eyes were painted red showing how furious he was and his veins were about to pop in any time soon.
"Mark...you know we were dating blindly. I was naive at that point and I even respectfully ended our relationship"
She frowned her eyes as she explained.
On the other hand, Daniel was looking with an interesting gaze but the Elders were not.
"Mark! How presumptuous of you to disrupt the great master time! I suggest you leave now or else you shall face the consequences!"
The Sect Master stood up from his seat and executed his aura to oppress Mark.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing how presumptuous Mark was behaving, all of the Elders were clicking their tongue as they stared at him as though he was a useless fool who could cause their death.
"Sect Master! How can you just sit down on that seat without having any backbone at all!? How can you just allow that man to sweep off the sect's disciples? Do any of you have at least a small spark of dignifying left!?"
Mark thought he was a protagonist at this point, believing that his words would cause a change within them, or perhaps he believed he would spurt out a foreign power that could bring down the mightiest foe.
But none of it was happening at all.
Hearing his words, the Elders were enraged and their opinions of him were lower than those of criminals.
They wanted to strangle him from saying those words. What dignity? What backbone?
If you had seen and stood in front of him, you would have pissed your pants and all of them had similar thoughts.
"Sigh, Mark, you're a talented person with a bright future"
"But sometimes, you'll need to understand that there are things that you can't understand. So I strongly encouraged you to apologize to this great master and return to your dorm"
The Sect Master sighed.
No one would expect that it would turn out this way.
He knows that Mark and Petra had a prosperous relationship and may be able to create a family together.
Such a future was what he observes and expected to come.
But the Sect Master knows that love isn't exactly as pure as it sounds.
Petra might have loved Makr but that was when her options were limited.
She was a truthful and honest woman, but she dated Mark thinking she 'loved' him yet not.
It might be cruel, but in this world where love is before everything, it's hard for love to bloom between cultivators.
The only true love that all cultivators can find is within their strength.
"No! I won't accept this! That man must have used vile techniques to corrupt your mind, and for that, I shall personally cleanse it myself!"
His facial expressions were turning as dark as they can be.
His heart and mind had been hurt deeply by his fabrication of love and such a small effect will prevent him from striving for the higher realms.
However, before Mark could show his prowess, his body froze on the spot when his eyes stared at Daniel's eyes.
His leg trembled and his hands shivered. But what's even more embarrassing about this moment is that he peed on his robes.
He didn't realize that he had done such an act, after all, Daniel's gaze of intent had scared him out of his wits.
"Mark is it?" He stood up from his seat and walked toward him.
"I don't care what relationships you have with Petra and I don't want to know how related or important you are to her"
He walked closer and the sound of his steps caused the whole building to tremble.
Even the Elders were sweating and they now truly feared him as the hours that they sensed from him were beyond any experts they have encountered before.
The only person that recognized the resemblance of the aura was the Sect Master.
'So he is truly a Half-Immortal...what kind of monster have we invited?' He questioned.
"I don't care how much of a relationship you have with her or how close you were"
Walking closer towards Mark, Daniel increased his aura and in the eyes of the Elders, what they were seeing had terrified them.
They thought they were imagining it, but they were not.
It felt like their legs were grabbed by multiple hands that were created with blood and that their mouth was covered by blood of hands.
It was absolutely frightening and some of them even fainted from their bloodlust aura.
"But...."
His voice went deeper when he was only a step further away from him.
He gazed at him with piercing eyes and Mark experienced an overwhelming intent.
"From now on, you no longer exist in her life and you'll forget everything about her. Every moment and memory, all of it will cease to exist. I'm giving you only this chance because I'm still in a good mood...so...don't waste it"
Mark couldn't utter any words as his mouth and lips were trembling.
He didn't even dare to look at him because such force was preventing him from doing so.
On the other hand, Petra smiled that the man and master she chose to follow had such a domineering side.
It was proof and evidence of his strength which women like. Who wouldn't have such a strong man? Only idiots would pretend that they prefer weak men.
Mark wanted to refute this, however, when he looked at Petra, he became devastated.
He found that she was solely gazing at Daniel with a wide bright smile he had never seen before.
'W...Why would you give him that look...!? You never looked that way at me before!?'
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe felt like his world was destroyed and more was about to come as it would shatter his heart into pieces.
"Since my words won't perhaps drill into your mind. Then watch this..."
Daniel grinned like a villain and seeing his wicked smile, Mark had a bad feeling.
He watched Daniel approach Petra with a confident smile and seeing the man approaching her, Petra panicked like a maiden in love.
"M-Master?" She stuttered her words and her heart beat fast. They were so close that their lips at any time could make contact.
"Petra, since you have become my disciple, then naturally I wouldn't neglect you, but I will show you and the rest what it means to be my disciple,"
Daniel said with a mischievous smile.
Petra had a questionable looked, she was wondering about what her master wanted to do and she was taken by surprise the moment Daniel invaded her mouth.
"!?"
She was shocked but the more Daniel played with her tongue, the more she found it irresistible to enjoy.
She wasn't disgusted at her master's sudden actions of kissing her lips.
Instead, she enjoyed it.
It was like tasting a sweet honey that was delightful to her taste buds.
Closing her eyes and accepting his kiss, Petra hugged her master by his neck and pushed herself deeper.
At this moment, she had forgotten about the Elders and even Mark as she was enlightened by a whole new world of pleasure.
On the other hand, Mark's eyes were devoid of emotions and there were no words that could describe his emotions.
He felt lost, angry, sad, and even helpless.
There was nothing that he could do except watch his past lover being kissed by another man.
Petra gazed at Mark for a second and looked away.
She ignored his current state and instead of comforting him, she closed her eyes and focused on the kiss with her master.
Some might believe Petra was wrong for this or that she was a cruel woman.
However, in consideration and respect for her past relationship with Mark, she had broken up with her respectfully and she was clear with her intentions.
She never betrayed him nor did she treat him harshly. Moreover, both sides had agreed with the decision of separating.
So for Mark who had barged into the room and screamed as if she had betrayed him was totally unfair for her.
It was as if she was the bad one and had cheated on him.
But fortunately, her master didn't take his words seriously and watched his dominant side, Petra was charmed by it.
