Chapter 74 Long Winding Plans Against Granddad...

From the first moment Eros had Xena, he instantly knew the kind of person she was destined to be.

Those that had been touched by a god only had two paths.

it was either they became shamans or god avatars on earth.

As much as Eros knew it was not a good thing to intrude on another god's territory. Especially at such a time, a part of him could not help but anticipate pissing a god off.

And he successfully did. At the moment, a particular god was raging like mad bull in the heavens.

Getting Shamans or god avatars were not so easy, even for gods.

the branding process required hundreds of years to find the right specimen and a longer time to prepare the spiritual body for the soul branding.

although a hundreds of years was nothing to a god, at the end of the day, no one like their property to be stolen.

However, Eros had done way more than that. He had not just stolen her from the god.

He had also absorbed the mark on her soul, filtered it through his divine shard and sent it back into her body as his own god mark.

After all, it would be a waste if he allowed such a well made body and soul go to waste.

He was no longer in the heavens but that did not mean that his soul and origin was not that of a god.

In other words, he qualified very well to having a god Avatar or a shaman.

His powers were still far from what they used to be. He had no choice but to settle for Shaman for now.

The moment he poured inside her, she had broken a couple of levels in her cultivation, climbing up to the fifth stage of the Soul disciple realm.

But that was not all. As her body took all of him in, her eyes suddenly glowed white.

This was the sign that a mortal was receiving prophecy or seeing a vision.

However, because of the limits of Eros's current abilities, what Xena was seeing now was not a prophecy but a vision.

It was the Black islands. The same place that Eros had gone to for days with the pirate crew in search of the Anchor stone.

This particular black island was in ruins and a man laid on the ground.

A good part of the hair on his head had been burnt off and even his eye patch had been displaced from its normal position.

He had burnt marks all over his body and he even had sword injuries too.

Most of his clothes had been burnt together with his stick.

Surprisingly, he still manage to be alive.

This was no other than Commander Tender Eye.

This was just a while after Eros, the Red bra pirate crew and even Captain Blind Eyes had left.

A young handsome looking man with blonde and we'll fined Tunic walked on the black sands of the island.

in truth, Xena could not see his face as it was blurry, but she still sensed that he was an handsome man. After all, he had the confidence of one.

The wind blew carrying the dust of the black sand with it. However, it did nothing to staining his fine clothing.

This man stopped before commander Tender Eye, "did you get it?" the handsome man asked commander Tender Eye.

The commander's body was in really terrible shape and even his mouth had been burnt shut. All he could do was follow the movements of the man with his one good eye.

The handsome man walked around him a bit and then he stopped.

He took a bit of the sand on the ground to his mouth and then he frowned.

"Interesting, I taste treasure. loads of it, but..." he tasted some more, "you lost it. Also, there was actually not one but two Anchor stones here."

The handsome man frowned some more, "but you still managed to lose it. Two Anchor stones and Legendary treasures enough to make any nation twice as wealthy and you lost it!?"

Seeing the Handsome man become angry, commander Tender Eye shook and his one good eye carried fear.

The handsome man leaned in and then he used a finger on the commander's lips, slowly tearing apart the melted skin that prevented him from talking.

"I'll give you the last opportunity to talk. From the looks of it, you are only allowed three words before you leave this world. Find within your heart your pain and let them worth it."

Commander Tender Eye coughed out some blood, and then with quivering lips and stiffened muscles, he opened his mouth, "Eros Ironclad Tate...!"

The moment he said the last word, he coughed up some more blood and the light in his eyes left him.

The handsome man nodded.

However, just then, he immediately turned like he was looking directly at Xena, "I see you TOO!!!"

Immediately and mostly out of fear, she snapped back to the real world.

She was sweaty and breathing heavily.

Eros looked at her, "what did you see!?" he asked.

"I...I don't know." She hugged herself, still feeling the cold eyes of the handsome man on her, "for some reason, she could not remember what she had seen, but she could still feel the inbounding threat and it made her very scared.

So scared that a bit of tears traced down her cheeks.

Eros sighed. He dragged her close to himself and patted her head lightly.

"it's alright! I am here for you." He hugged tightly.

Xena nodded her head and snuggled into his embrace. His warmth brought her comfort.

As she snuggled into him, his smell suddenly awoke her arousal again and her fingers could not help but trace to his rod.

Eros noticed the kind of comfort she wanted and proceeded to help her with her pressing need.

After another round of pleasure, Xena joined Carren and Ngozi in a lotus position to cultivate.

Eros put on his clothes but before he left the room, he made sure to place a kiss on all their foreheads, passing them each techniques that were not lower than the Epic grade.

After which, he left the room.

Waiting for him in front, was Jimmy his butler.

He was holding a tray of refreshments.

"Thank you very much," Eros nodded as he took a cup of tea and some biscuits.

Jimmy nodded and dropped them on a table by the side.

*crack!*

Eros had heard the sound,and he immediately rushed in Jimmy's direction to help him.

Jimmy was old and his cultivation was not that high to begin with.

Because of the stress of the past few days, his body was starting to act up.

Eros immediately touched the man's back and passed some of his celestial energy into it. Relieving him of his pain.

"Ahhh!" Jimmy gave a breathe of freedom.

Now that Eros thought about it, he had never checked to see how Jimmy's body was doing.

He remembered that he was stuck in his cultivation but that was all to it.

He immediately passed his energy through his body and then he frowned.

According to what he just felt, this old butler only had a few months to live.

The toll of working day and night had deeply affected him and worry for his his master's safety had put strain on his mind.

In other words, he was practically worn out.

Eros immediately touched the butler on the forehead, "I just gave you a technique. when you go back to your chambers later, I want you to enter close doors cultivation. You are not allowed to do anything lower than two weeks of this. Do you understand me!?"

Jimmy nodded.

In his mind, he could feel the cultivation Technique that had been passed to him and the power it held within.

He bowed to Eros in thanks.

Eros nodded, "You are my family. I always take care of my own."

Eros was about to walk away. However, Jimmy suddenly remembered something and called to him.

"Yes! what is it?"

"Master Eros, I have both good news and bad news."

Eros raised a brow at this.

"The good news is that Lady Victoria's Merchant Guild has arrived. They came with three Cargo ships carrying all their luggages. Young Master Dan has already gone to welcome them and assign the task for rebuilding the Estate as you instructed."

"And what is the bad news?"

"Erm... erm Lady Frostbite's husband is at the border with a platoon of soldiers. He claims that you have kidnapped his wife and he is challenging you to a duel to the death."

Jimmy brought out a letter and handed it over to Eros.

Eros opened it. He read the contents and then he frowned.

"And what about Lady Frostbite?" Eros asked.

"She said that she has no desire to return yet and has refused to leave the Manor."
