Divorced and Dominant Now You Cry novel Chapter 1074

Chapter 1074

“I already told you. Don’t even think about it,” Xena retorted.

She felt a burning heat spreading through her body and clenched her teeth.

“What did you do to me?” she asked.

“Have you ever felt your body and soul burn at the same time?” Ashton asked coldly.

Her face turned even paler. A deep sense of dread rose instinctively within her, and she curled up even tighter. “Sovereign Flame,” he said, his tone carrying the finality of a death sentence.

Xena let out a scream of agony as her eyes flew wide open. Her body curled up as tremors tore through her from head to toe.

One moment, she felt freezing cold. The next second, she felt like she was burning alive. Agonizing pain ripped through every inch of her body and sank deep into her soul, forcing broken screams from her throat.

“No… Please stop!”

She clenched her fists so tightly her nails dug into her palms. But no matter how hard she fought against it, the agony never eased in the slightest. Only now did she truly understand what it meant to be trapped between life and death.

“You had the chance to die. Since you chose not to, then submit,” Ashton said coldly.

“I…”

Cold sweat soaked Xena’s body. Instinctively, she wanted to agree to every condition Ashton offered. But submitting to him and obeying his every command for the rest of her life was something she still could not accept.

More importantly, she knew exactly what happened to anyone who betrayed Selene and the Heavenly Medical Pavilion. That fate was no different from what she was enduring now.

“Kill me,” Xena bit out through clenched teeth.

Her instinctive desire to survive kept her from ending her own life. All she could do was beg Ashton to give her a quick death.

“What exactly are you afraid of? Do you think that even if you submit to me, I still won’t be able to withstand Selene and the Heavenly Medical Pavilion’s retaliation? If that’s what you think, then you’re wrong. I came to the Central Region to conquer it and crush anyone who gets in my way.”

Ashton’s gaze turned cold as he continued, “I already took over Linton Island and Zolane. They’re under my control now. If you choose to serve me, then the position of governor will be yours. You won’t have to live under Selene’s thumb anymore. You can take her place.”

That revelation clearly shook Xena. Even through the intense pain, she stared at him in disbelief.

“You took over Linton Island and Zolane?”

“That’s right.

No wonder…’

next.”

began to hesitate. Nobody wanted to die, especially her.

It hadn’t been easy for her to reach the pinnacle of the semi-divine realm. There was still a chance she could step into the otherworldly realm one day. Naturally, she wasn’t willing to die like this.

But she also knew what would await her if she submitted to Ashton.

“With your current strength, you still can’t stand against Selene and the Heavenly Medical Pavilion. If I submit to you, I’ll still end up dead. If that’s the case, I’d rather die now and keep my name clean,” she said in a deep voice.

“It seems you still don’t understand the true extent of my power.”

Ashton looked down at her from above and added calmly, “I don’t need to prove anything to you. But if you submit to me, I can help you reach the semi-otherworldly realm in a short time. In the future, fully stepping into the otherworldly realm may not be impossible either.

“I’ve said all I needed to say. Make your final choice. Submit to me and become the new governor of Lavora. Otherwise, you’ll die here and be damned forever.”
