Davis thought back to his karmic prowess derived from Fallen Heaven. He hadn't comprehended it much, but he could use its prowess to see Karma Threads that connected people and denoted the type of bond they possess towards each other and use Misdirection, which is a highhanded way of manipulating opponents that he rarely used.

In truth, it was rather similar to Mandate Laws, but not as he could just influence their thoughts a bit. When he experimented in the past, he learned that it could be perceived as manipulation by the victim.

Nevertheless, he was already using Fallen Heaven for kills, so what is the need for him to use Misdirection in battles? Furthermore, when there were battles that could be won through his own strength, where was the need for him to use Misdirection?

Therefore, he tried to use it as little as possible, concentrating on self-improvement and only using Fallen Heaven when needed to.

Regardless of his usage, there was now something additional that he could see through the usage of Fallen Heaven's karmic powers. It was the black-purplish-red karmic sin, now wrapped around Evelynn, making him feel the ominous aura that he couldn't sense before.

This was truly a breakthrough for Fallen Heaven but was that it? He certainly felt not.

Davis's expression became resolute as he separated from Evelynn. He raised his hand, pulling it back while Evelynn perceived as if he was going to slap her.

*Whoosh!~*

Looking at his hand swing, she froze to receive a slap and lecture, but then it went past above her head as if he hit the empty air, causing her to feel rather... light?

"What did you... do?"

Evelynn couldn't help but tremble as she saw Davis stare at his empty palm with a solemn expression on his face.

Davis's eyes were rather incredulous as he saw the chunk of karmic sin that he snatched from Evelynn. It was really in his hands, separated from Evelynn's body. It appeared the same black-purplish-red while its thick, ominous aura remained. If he could see closer, it was as if though he could see numerous vengeful ghosts swirling inside, although he also felt that it might've been his delusion.

However, Evelynn was not able to see what he saw but only felt it due to her prowess in Hex Laws. She intrinsically knew that something sinister was burdening her the moment she killed more than a hundred thousand people but paid no heed to it as she continued to slaughter for vengeance.

Before long, she could feel the burden constantly increasing, and when she met Davis, it was already this big. However, she now felt it considerable lighten as if a part of it had been taken off of her shoulders.

"Davis... what did you do!?"

Indeed, Davis raised his head and saw that Evelynn's twenty-four-meter tall karmic sin had lessened to nineteen meters. His one swipe of a hand lessened the degree of karmic sin by five meters, causing him to be truly shocked as he mused that was the level of killing over five million people.

With a single snatch, he made it so that Evelynn didn't have to feel burdened by the slaughter of five million people.

But looking at the karmic sin stay in his hands without dispersing, he didn't know what to do.

He looked at her worried expression and crazily smiled, "Your karmic sin, I'll take it all."

"...!"

Evelynn's third eye abruptly opened as it released a profound blue light that Davis abruptly found all his cultivations sealed. His Essence Gathering Cultivation, Body Tempering Cultivation, and even his Soul Forging Cultivation were imposed upon a blue hex symbol similar to what is displayed in Evelynn's third eye, blocking him from using his cultivation.

He quickly came to know that he could only use his energy currently flowing in the meridians and his physical might but could not access his dantians as they were sealed.

Furthermore, as he lost control over his energy for a moment, the karmic sin dispersed, making him frown.

Nevertheless...

"I did say that I want to experience your Sealing Hex, but not now. Take it off of me, Evelynn."

Davis's voice was a bit forceful, but Evelynn took a step back and shook her head.

"Don't be stupid. What haunts me stays with me..."

She didn't know for sure about what happened, but she could tell Davis snatched a chunk of her karmic sin away from her, although she couldn't fathom how he achieved such a feat in the first place that it was mindboggling to her.

"You...!" Davis's eyes widened, "As your man, it is my responsibility to carry your burdens!"

"No, you're not going to do this...!" Evelynn's eyes were resolute.

There was no way she would make Davis bear her sins for her, but...

"Screw you!"

Davis suddenly swung his hand again, collecting another chunk of Evelynn's karmic sin. The black-purplish-red gaseous aura was again in his hands while he could see her karmic sin lessen by five meters again.

"What...!?"

However, Evelynn was considerably shaken by his actions.

"How are you doing this while being sealed...!?"

Davis paid no heed to her scream as he used his other hand and snatched her karmic sin again. Feeling full, he clenched his teeth and invoked Fallen Heaven's prowess again, simultaneously feeling the karmic sin disperse from his hands as if it was absorbed by something.

While Evelynn remained dumbfounded, another two hands swiped past her before she suddenly felt... nothing. She couldn't feel that ominous and obscure burden weighing on her anymore completely, causing her to feel a chill on her spine that disturbed her spider lances as they made rattling sounds.

"Why...?"

Her lips moved as tears flowed down her hazy purple eyes.

"What a stupid question, Evelynn. Have I forsaken you even once?"

Davis flicked his palms, and the karmic sin on his hands disappeared as if he shrugged it off. He didn't know what happened to it, but it was of little concern if he could save Evelynn from the fate of having a stroke of bad karmic luck.

Davis walked towards her as he embraced her again, making her head rest on his chest.

"There, it seems like I was already able to fulfill my promise to you."

Evelynn's figure kept trembling as she was unable to keep up.

What just happened?

How can all the evil she felt on herself suddenly disappear as if she hadn't committed the slaughter? She deeply trembled in his embrace, wrapping her arms around him as she shook her head.

"No, please..." Evelynn sobbed, "Give it back to me... I cannot burden you with my karmic sin as it will cause you to encounter a deadly tribu-"

"Speak no more." Davis brushed her long greenish-purple hair, trying to console her, "I foolishly burdened myself with Tia's heavenly tribulation, so why wouldn't I do it for you, Evelynn?"

Evelynn raised her head, appearing to be completely shaken to the core. She never felt so loved at this moment than ever before that she fondly yet worriedly looked at him.

"Don't do this-"

"Your burdens are mine to bear..."

"I don't want to burde-"

"I want to protect you."

Evelynn bit her lips, appearing tongue-tied to Davis's strong words while her face was full of tears already, melting in his warm embrace.

Evelynn never appeared so endearing at this moment that Davis couldn't help but lift her purple veil and pounce at her, stealing those soft and sensual lips of hers with his. He deeply kissed Evelynn, exchanging his passion for her that he could feel her reciprocate the next second intensely.

It was as if they felt each other become one at the moment, their emotions and souls intersecting as they shared their loved while desiring each other to the peak.

"Always rely on me, okay?"

Davis left her lips and wiped her tears away. Evelynn's third eye flashed as it removed the Sealing Hex she cast on him, causing Davis to feel refreshed.

"Mhm~"

She then nodded, causing him to smile as he let go of her.

Evelynn looked at him with an intense gaze. However, it was not one of sensual desire, but she was trying to notice if she could find the ominous aura of karmic sin in him. No matter what he said, she was still worried that she caused him to take on her sins.

Davis was also checking the same as he descended into contemplation. He sent his sense to his soul sea and checked if there were any kind of karmic sin near Fallen Heaven. However, he couldn't find anything other than the Soul Emperor Zealwonder's soul he plundered.

'So it disappears just like that...?'

Davis didn't understand.

Was the karmic sin still with him or not?
