Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

================¶¶================

"Hello, youngsters. How was my grand entrance," A female voice echoed in the hall as the red lights revealed the figure that just appeared.

A devilish beautiful woman with black hair and blood-red eyes donning a feathered short black dress sat on the throne with one leg crossed over the other.

Arthur did not respond to the woman's question and remained still and calm as he looked at Ava instead.

It finally dawned on Ava that something was wrong and she turned to her 'Master', hoping he will dispel her confusion.

"Master, what is going on?"

Unlike the response she was expecting, the translucent figure of the man suddenly smiled and slowly dispersed in a flash of light.

"Master?!"

"He is not your master. Whatever we saw was probably an illusion caused by her," Arthur spoke out at this time.

"What..." Ava was dumbfounded and her heart began to beat very fast as many thoughts swirled in her mind.

At this time the woman on the throne got angry and released her soul power on them.

"I asked a question!"

Feeling the mighty pressure on them Ava fell to her knees almost immediately and could not stop her body from trembling.

'What...kind of power is this?!'

Mind you Ava wasn't so weak-willed, as her father who was one of the most powerful cultivators in the continent constantly tempered her mind with his soul's pressure so as to make her learn to be calm.

'But this...this is unlike anything I have ever felt....wha...what kind of monster have we met.'

In Ava's eyes, the beautiful woman on the throne had become a devil in her mind and she felt this isn't something that she can resist and could only beg.

"I... I apologize, Senior. I meant no disrespect," she apologized with a shaking voice.

Meanwhile, the woman did not answer her as her gaze was on someone else, Arthur.

"Hmmm, you can resist something at this level?"

Arthur was frowning as he stood his ground against the pressure.

Truly he felt no fear at all in his heart as after all this woman's soul can not even compare to a millionth of his soul.

Soul pressure focuses mainly on the soul and due to standing Arthur could still stand easily.

But there was a problem.

'My body is not strong enough...no rather I am still weak!'

The power descended on his body too, albeit not as strong as his soul.

"I knew you were special the moment I found out that I could not see through your cultivation," The lady smiled and then increased the pressure she was emitting.

"Argh!" A cry came from beside Arthur.

Ava couldn't keep silent as the pain became unbearable for her.

Arthur's back bent a bit but he still held on.

"Hmm, even this is not enough. Should I keep going until you break?" She touched her chin

"Nah, that is something my elder sister would love to do, but not me," the lady shook her head and then dispelled the pressure on them.

"I am tired of acting like her anyway," she said something confusing and with a snap of her finger a bright light flashed and another person appeared on the throne.

'No, this isn't someone else. This should be her true appearance,' Arthur thought as he paid attention to the last thing she said.

The person he saw now had light pink curly hair and rather than devilish red eyes, she had seductive pink eyes instead and her skin was not pale like her previous look and was just fair.

The current lady looked more like a seductress to Arthur, along with the fact that there was this invisible energy around her that makes him feel like his senses would be affected if he was an ordinary person.

'She was acting like her sister. Don't tell me there are two of them?' Arthur wondered and straightened his back.

Ava was still on the ground and has gotten over the pain she just felt. Out of pity, Arthur walked to her to help her stand up.

He bent down and held her hand and placed his other hand on her shoulder.

On any other day, Ava would not let any man touch her like that but this isn't just any day.

She gripped Arthur's hand tightly as she shakily stood up with his breath. Her breathing was ragged and she calmed down slightly with Arthur so close to her.

She turned and saw Arthur's calm eyes stare into hers making her feel comforted. It was a bit weird to her as she felt that only her dad can give her such a feeling.

Due to the feeling of safety, she snuggled closer to Arthur.

"It's okay," Arthur whispered.

She must have felt scared so much that she grabbed onto whatever gave her comfort.

"Fufufu, what a lovely sight," the lady laughed and said.

She stood up from the throne and walked down.

Arthur finally got a good look at her figure and he would lie to say that he was not mesmerized.

So far he would describe her as the most beautiful woman he had seen and it didn't help that she swayed her hips in such a seductive manner as she walked forward.

'There it is again,' Arthur noticed something amiss.

Arthur senses a compulsive force that surrounded the lady trying to penetrate his mind. But a vibration from his soul dispelled it the instant it arrived in his mind.

'So she isn't only skilled in illusions but also mind control?' Arthur and then he felt that Ava had stopped to tremble entirely.

'This couldn't be because of me,' he turned as saw that Ava's eyes were filled with desire and worship-like gaze as she stared at the woman.

'Let me play along for now,' Arthur decided to do the same and see where this goes.

Looking at the woman and displaying a similarly fervent desire was easy due to her appearance.

It would have been had for Arthur if she had an unsightly appearance, but the woman before him was anything but unsightly.

Her dress was of the same color as her hair and there were two slits on her dress that reveal her smooth fair thighs.

'Damn, nice tits!' Arthur thought as he looked at her breasts that felt like they could pop out of her dress and show more than the cleavage that he see.

The woman smirked in victory when she saw the expressions on their faces.

'So this was your weakness after all. Just like all men, hmph!" She harrumphed arrogantly and finally arrived before Arthur.

"If I was my sister I could have turned you both into mindless slaves but I am not that cruel. Unfortunately, that is the reason for my present predicament in the first place."

She held Ava's chin and looked into her eyes.

"A girl with such a rare and powerful physique in this backwater place. It is indeed true that you can not look down on lower realms as they could have rare treasures every once in a while."

"With you helping me, it would be far easier for me to recover from my injuries and finally get my revenge."

'So she was injured?'

She removed her hand from Ava's chin and placed it on the girl's forehead.

"I am sorry about this, but I need to do what I need to do," she said with a hint of remorse in her tone.

Then she began to chant various strange words and her eyes began to glow.

"Secret Art: Soul Bind!"

Arthur watched in surprise as a seal appeared on Ava's forehead and disappeared in an instant.

Suddenly, Ava who was holding his hand pushed him away and stood beside the woman.

"Good, it worked just as I expected," she nodded in satisfaction and then turned to Arthur.'

"Although I originally had no plans of dragging you into this. My instincts tell me that you may have secrets that can be beneficial to me."

"Let me see what secrets your body holds after you become bound to me," she raised her hand and placed her index and middle finger on Arthur's forehead.

Arthur would have panicked by now if not for the constant vibrations he has been feeling from the depths of his soul that made him stay calm.

This was because he knew where those vibrations came from.

'The soul gem? It is acting on its own?'

Since Arthur reincarnated he had only sensed the Fate Gem once in his life and that was on the day he awakened as a baby in the arms of the emperor.

Due to that, he had awakened his Fate Sense ability.

'Is it that this encounter is triggering the Soul Gem and it wants to protect me? Or maybe it was time for another ability to awaken and I coincidentally found myself in this situation,' Arthur wondered, but regardless he was calm.

The lady began to mutter the same incantation she did with Ava and Arthur could feel a strange power enter his mind and find its way to his soul.

'Wrong move, lady,' Arthur said in his heart.
