My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calicraft) novel Chapter 1467

A diving artifact? Nash's gaze fixed heatedly on Tatiana. Divine artifacts, as the name suggested, were tools crafted by immortals, existing on a level beyond spiritual artifacts. The thought of a hundred thousand array patterns made his scalp tingle.

Tatiana tensed and whispered, "Don't look at me like that. Only those of the Cricton family bloodline can control the disc."

Nash awkwardly withdrew his gaze. "I meant no harm. I was just shocked!" Considering all the precious items Tatiana had already shared with him, he would not covet the disc.

Setting aside these thoughts, Tatiana was already his woman. No matter how powerful the disc was, he would not do anything to harm her.

Tatiana gently smiled and asked, "So, shall we descend the mountain now?"

Nash nodded. "Yes, let’s go down the mountain." He took out his Nine Dragons Sword, tossed it into the air, and then wrapped his arm around Tatiana’s waist. They both flew onto the blade.

Nearly four to five days had passed outside. Nash guessed Hera and the others were probably worried sick.

…

At the foot of the mountain, over a thousand people had gathered. Among them, 200 were from the Celestial Dragon Squadron, 500 from the Northern Territory, and 300 from the Cricton family led by the head of the family.

There was also the current deputy commander of the Divine Strategy Squadron, Dallas Cricton.

Edmund Cricton stood with his arms behind his back, his face exuding authority. However, his eyes betrayed his worries. Dressed in a black trench coat and wearing a round hat, he radiated a fierce aura. “Old man, if anything happens to my daughter, I won't let you get away with it!"

Dallas scoffed. "Now you care about Tatiana? You joined the army at 19. Have you even seen your daughter ten times?"

Edmund's eyes reddened as he shouted, "That's no excuse for you to betroth her to the Thorans!"
